As always Hoop an excellent film Breakdown of how Mitchell attacks defense. My one knock on Mitchell has always been his defense. He has been compared to his idol D-Wade who I watched play in his prime and Mitchell isn't an elite on-ball defender but he has the size, strength, an athleticism it just comes down to putting for the effort(which he does occasionally) and having the defensiveinstincts.
@@donjulio1033 well this video came out before the Celtics series in which he was avg that amount. Combined he is still avg 35 but thanks for being pedantic
I'll sub this was a great breakdown i had no idea about that ball possession stat i really hopes this helps people realize dono is the best SG in the league or at the very least stop underrating him
He also wears a size 17 shoe and he's only 6'2-6'3 so that probably helps too, he also has a very big wingspan for his height so even tho he's only like 6'2 he plays like a wing player
get SPIDA outta Cleveland or move Mobley for a usable outside threat/better asset in general. i just don’t have faith in CLE’s shooting development (for Mobley) specifically. not in the short time they have to make a serious run at the East. they’ll lose to BOS in 6 or 7 and they’ll continue to lose to more talented teams as Jarret & Mobley both remain -5 3pt att. per AND - 38%3tp% shooters. as well as non-playmakers. LeVert has also been a player that needed to be moved last szn. he’s either on the injury report…or plays like he thinks it’s ‘18 and he’s in BKN or something. a shot-jacker & a quick-fouler. Keep Okoro forever, i feel like Rubio retiring opened a void that’s never really been filled. there’s no trustworthy playmaker in the -D.Mitch minutes. I wish Mobley was more Banchero than Late Miami Bosh.
@@seamusmooney1308 Cle just not a good developing team as of rn. they were a lil bit when they had Gee, Waiters, Kai, Varejao, TT & stuff but that staff is gone a & i just don’t have faith that they can get him where he actually needs to be for a title run NEXTSZN. they need him able to either initiate offense better in the half court or work on his 3 pt shooting and his passing out of the diver spot (cutter on a high p&r with a spread or advantage numbers wise on the break). and fast. and be really good at it under pressure. i just don’t see it.
@ i promise you they a 1st round exit. just like the jazz a couple years ago. Donavan mitchel can’t lead a team to the conference finals as the best player ever again. and that backcourt is too small to do significant damage in this league a a title contention level. i stand on it. come back when Donavan is in cancun
Not even remotely close. Kyrie Irving is a 50-40-90 player who is the best ball handler in NBA History, a crafty finisher at the rim, quicker, with a post up game standing at 6'1 3/4 guard.
One thing I notice Brunson and Mitchell have that Tatum is lacking is a trust in their subconscious decision making. A trust in their bodies and minds to be able to make decisions as the play unfolds, rather than predetermining what they are going to do and having to stick with it no matter how the D reacts. I think that is like the #1 swing skill that determines whether a volume scorer will be able to up their game come playoff time/when intensity and effort ups a notch. Can they just play and react and trust in their ability to read and react with alllll of their various moves they know they have mastered. Watching it in live action I feel like it doesn’t always make it clear if a move was pre panned or not, but the more you watch and study the more you can tell which guys are just starting an attack and then able to counter out of it with whatever they need to, on the FLY. It’s honestly not easy, BUT I think it all comes down to letting go, and just trusting in your work and your subconscious body and mind.
I can't decide if Mitchell is worth building around. As a Jazz fan, of course I love him. His performance against the Thunder in 2018 as a rookie still has me floundered. On one hand, I think he would be very good as a primary ball handler and play maker on a team, on the other hand, I sort've subscribe to your best player needs to be at least around 6'6", Ant maybe the one exception, to win a title. Possibly the best use for him is to be the pg on a team, but is not the 1rst option. I would like to see him on a team where he paired with a guy with size in the back court. I think he could run the offense, but even in that position, he shouldn't have the burden to carry the team in scoring. Rather, I would like his role to be 2nd option on offense (though he's the PG running the offense, most of the plays called are to setup the #1 guy to score), making use of his off ball and on ball capabilities. The reason for this is that when he doesn't have most of the offensive burden for the team, he will have the energy to play both sides of the floor. In Utah, it often felt like he was too gassed to play defense because his burden on the offensive end was too great.
@jadenuniverse9541 I see what you saying, and if you don't have championship aspiration, it's 100% true. I still think both Steph and Ant are more special and are 6'4" vs 6'1". To me, Spida is in the same category as Dame and Kyrie. These players can no doubt bring it on offense and drop 50+, and can and have been the best player on the floor in playoffs series, but none of them have proven, nor has any of their comparisons, won a chip as the team's best player. Maybe you point to D Wade, who was the 1rst option, but having a near prime, if not prime, all time great on the team makes a pretty big difference. They, Spida and the comps I mentioned, are all great, but not in the among the greatest tier. You'd pick a Doncic over Mitchell every time. When he was Utah, I believed they could pull off a 2005 Pistons run. To win without a top 5 player, but I've been taught the truth as a result. I believe Mitchell can be a top 10 player in the NBA; however, I think you need a top 5 player to win it all. In the last 35 years, doing it without one has only happened once. Dirk imo was a top 5 player, so was Zeke.

because they are haters

if he spent more time on defense would not be effective on offense he has to carry to much of the scoring load so do we want him to score or defense ?
Great video and I love the impossible to guard videos, i even got a playlist of them because it helps me become a better player
Dudes definitely underrated as of late
he's so disrespected. this season he stepped up on playing off the ball and passing, and continued to step up defensively.
This guy was great now he's turned on hall of fame mode

Give Dono any of the teams ANT or Book has get gets a ring his resume speaks for itself....

Best 2 guard inna league still.
Can’t wait till you make a Celtics video
I wonder what kind of camera that first clip was shot on it almost looks like film.
Definitely a video of all time
Man glad i made it early
I am too!
Better offensive player in 2024 Embiid or Mitchell ?
before or after Embiid's injury?
Fully healthy I’d take Embiid, but that’s a big pretty ask at this point.
Healthy Embiid is arguably the best player in the league. Even while hobbled he's still very good offensively but Donavan is clearly better.
@@HoopVenue yeah 😂the big fella is running on 57 year old knees at this point
He has really strong legs, gives him a strong base. Dame also credits his shooting to weightlifting legs.
He also wears a size 17 shoe and he's only 6'2-6'3 so that probably helps too, he also has a very big wingspan for his height so even tho he's only like 6'2 he plays like a wing player

I'd say he's played at that level. Especially impressed with his passing over the first 2 games of the Dallas series!
@@HoopVenue and also last question who do you think has been the best playoff player this season
I’d probably go with Ant so far.
Jokic has been great but very underwhelmed with the defense.
Thanks for this video. I'd like to request a video to see how Mitchell does on defense.
Now imagine if Denver kept him after the draft..
Then Denver would be unstoppable
Reminds me of my fav player ever d.wade
Exactly dwade 2.0
Donovan Mitchell is on jalen Brunson level
He's better, I need to see Brunson be great for at least another season before I rate him that high
All time yea but individually I feel Mitchell is too inconsistent while Brunson has been consistently playing at a high level this season
brunson is better right now
Brunson numbers are inflated because the dude usage rate is the highest in NBA history..
He gets hurt every 5 games
Respectfully I jus wanna see the wolves nuggets breakdown. I noticed Denver attacking that baseline
Donovan Mitchell becoming Kyrie Irving

Dovanan Mitchell needs help im glad he’s not passing the ball to hes teammates they are so unreliable
It maybe because of fatigue or to not get injured that he doesnt get the ball as much to be the playmaker.
