Mitchell was supposed to be back a while ago wtf

He said it was a pretty significant sprain. Not what they said when it happened. More than a month

They better hope that he gets back to at least 80% by the end of this series.

Tim MacMahon: Quin Snyder says Jazz medical staff met with Donovan Mitchell after shootaround and decided to hold him out of Game 1. He acknowledged that Mitchell, who declared himself “ready to go” when he talked to media post-shootaround, isn’t pleased with the decision.

Drew Hill: Quin Snyder gets asked if Donovan Mitchell has missed parts of practice. He said yes, but he wasn’t the only guy. They held out different guys from different parts to keep them fresh. He also acknowledged that he wanted to play. Didn’t directly comment on whether he was upset.

The big difference between the Jazz sweep in the regular season and now would be Jackson/Tillman and Morant's improved 3. Could cause some problems with their size and COTY isn't likely to counter with his size

Jonas going to work.

Gobert should already have 3 fouls and instead has just 1.

Making Gobert look like a pvssy early. Hope he keeps it up

[Proctor]

The shot selection of Brooks is horrible every game.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Rudy Toody is the biggest fraud in the history of the league

another playoff another big man putting it into his pooper

if the Grizz get the upset and win the series he should just retire
