That could change possibly if Mitch plays better, but this last game he was truly awful
The previous versions of Mitch would be more valuable to us than Sims, but that Mitch is not with us presently
I honestly wonder if he is in full game condition let alone playoff game condition. Like the instincts or there but he is a bit slow in reaction.
Mitch was running full court a few games ago without breathing heavy. He's been conditioning for a year and playing actual games for close to two months even if only off the bench. He is trimmer and probably as healthy as he's going to be.
It could be his injuries caught up to him and he lacks the mobility and quicker reflexes to move his feet and plant them hard.
Whatever it is, he is getting outboxed badly and he is rarely in position to get the board. Most of his highlight plays were due to the ball bouncing his way more often than his positioning.
He looks very checked out in this series. I don't think it is all about his physical status. He is showing no ambition out there.
Things change. Maybe he'll improve. But he isn't helping us that much right now.
