    Mitchell with the 3rd highest scoring playoff game of all time.

    I guess a lot of players are gonna have crazy games without the actual playoff crowds

    I sure hope so. Juck the Fazz.

    He's too good for them.

    Murray, Tatum, Booker, Mitchell...so many great young wings. I still think Booker will turn out to be the best among them.

    I don't think Conley would have made a difference. Clearly he doesn't have heart anymore.
    The Grizzlies were lucky they got that trade done.

    It's another playmaker on offense and another body to throw against Murray. Conley is a really good defender, so maybe Murray wouldn't have gone off today.

    No team with Mitchell as there lead dog is going to sniff the finals. He is too undersized to make an impact on the defensive side of the ball. He scored 57 but a guard on the other side got 36, not mention wat the backup guards got.

    Mike used to be a fantastic player, but he clearly has other priorities, and Denver is hungry.
    No way the jazz get by them.

    Dude means Conley has no heart because he chose to go witness the actual birth of his own child. Yeah I know just plain dumb

    Isn't this more of an indictment on the Jazz's other defensive players? I don't think Mitchell was on Murray for most of the latter half of the 4th + OT, but I could be wrong.

    Mitchell shouldn't need to put up 57 and stop the opponent's best player, just like how Harden shouldn't be asked to carry the offense and stop CP3 from doing CP3 things. One task usually saps the energy of the other.

    I mean that he is not committed to winning a championship. He is not a bad guy for doing so and might well be in his rights, but while you are witnessing your baby being born, Clubber Lang eating boiled potatoes and thinking about nothing but winning.
    The other thing is that Utah paid a heavy price to get Conley on their team and he owes them his best. Baby being born or not.
    I guarantee you I'm not the only one that believes this way.

    witnessing the birth of your own child does not question commitment level. It only tells you what priorities are and your own family is always #1 on the list. if it isn't, something is wrong with you. if that's a shock to you, that tells alot about a person. those are what's wrong in this world. so yeah i don't doubt your not the only one. there's a ton of idiots in this world just like there's a ton of idiots on this board. but not in that bubble when other players have left to witness the birth of a life they created. you're obviously no where near the realm of this aspect of life

    Mary Conley wears the pants in that family.
    Jusuf Nurkic had his grandma die from Covid and he stayed.
    Mary Conley has Mike whipped.
