Pacers have made a lot of weird, uncharacteristic mistakes. Pacers might have their average in turnovers by half.

If Mitchell had the impact of making this Cavs team go from play in team to number 1 seed he’d be top 2 in mvp lol. He has nothing near that kind of impact.

Kinda seems like they took money from both companies as the official sponsor and are hoping they don't notice lol. Meanwhile I personally feel like the 2nd round is being brought to me by the massive cable bill I just paid.
What is all the hype with chipotle though?
That good?
It's aight. I go there once in a while but not often. Lots of choices for Mexican food where I live. But a friend of mine eats Chipotle pretty much every day. I just remembered Danny Ainge loves that place too lol. It was a thing when he was in Boston.
When I left the tri-state area I was floored how bad pizza got. Every moron between New Haven and Philly can make a good pie but in much of the US is a splitting the atom level accomplishment. And that's why chain pizza places have a foothold in much of the country.
Before I moved to Cali I didn't get the hype for Mexican food. now that I live here I eat all the time. But in much of the country making a burrito is a splitting the atom level feat. And that explain why Chipotle is so popular.

Their three point shooting has saved them.

Hmmm Pascal can't beat Allen... I think Pascal needs to pull Allen further out to the 3 point line and then try and move past him. You aren't going to beat allen that close to the bucket .

Must have felt weird for the Cavs to play a team that actually plays basketball after that Miami series

I love the Allen/Mobley/Hunter front court. I know they can't play a ton of minutes together but in short bursts, its nice to have that size on the floor.

Chipotle has gone downhill fast IMO. The chicken quality is horrible and the sodium is off the charts. It was good 10 years ago now I think it's maybe 3/10. I will never eat there again unless I'm with people who want to go there

I didn't want to say he was going to play himself off the team but basically that's what he's doing in a good way for him.

Mitchell is one of the best at splitting the defense in the PNR.

Yeah...cuts in & out. The announcers are too loud compared to the crowd / environment. They are hyping this as loud and I was thinking it sounded quiet

Technically it's true. Cavs lost in the 2022 play-in to the Nets and Hawks, then traded for Mitchell a few months later, playoffs all 3 seasons with him.Wolfgang630 wrote:If Mitchell had the impact of making this Cavs team go from play in team to number 1 seed he’d be top 2 in mvp lol.
