Who's better? Damian Lillard vs Donovan Mitchell

[Roddy B for 3]

Bonus question would replacing Mitchell with Lillard put Utah over Denver in round 1?

I think Lillard is better but I don’t know that he has a better series against Denver than Mitchell did. Mitchell put up 36/5/5 on 70%TS. It was essentially a flawless series other than a somewhat underwhelming game 7. Portland almost got outed by Denver a year ago but were saved on the back of a magnificent game 7 performance by McCollum.

With no Nurcic in that series, right?

Honestly Dame is a far better player at this point, but if he can get his passing instincts/delivery better and become a 25-27 ppg on 58 TS%> then he'll be closer.
