Kyrie Irving knew, and whether you choose to believe him or you think he’s copying Lebron back from Kobe’s record, one thing is for sure, that Mitchell’s preparation for a great performance, was to play some call of duty with Kyrie before the game.
Here’s a few more overlooked things from Donovan’s 71 point explosion. What up everybody, my name is Stefan and this is Heat Check. Let’s get into it.
Mitchell’s buckets and assists contributed to 99 out of the 145 total points for Cleveland. That’s 68%, more than 2 thirds of the total output from the Cavs. This is the definition of carrying the team.
No wonder why Cedi Osman did this at the end.
In fact, not only is this the 8th best scoring record in NBA history, but Donovan is the only one out of those players to score more than 70 points and have 10+ assists.
And when Kevin Durant saw it, he had to praise Mitchell.
Speaking of his peers, Spida broke Luka’s season record of 60 points, also broke Lebron and Kyrie’s 57 as the previous franchise record in Cleveland.
And lastly, he dethroned Devin Booker and his 70 for the best scoring performance in the last 17 years.
Ever since the day that Lebron knew:
Last night was so wild that there were 5 players with over 40 points.
This is only the second time in NBA history that 5 players exploded like that in one night. And funny enough it happened just about a week ago.
The NBA is just now ramping up and hopefully we get to see much more of these crazy nights.
