Donovan Mitchell

Come tourney time, with his superior hops he can be that shut down defender on a tall scoring guard ala Kevin Ward back in the title run; a very important part of any championship run! Definitely moves and leaps like LaBradford for sure!

Yep and if you were watching you saw CRP post him up at least once. Maybe a "show" for future opponents? ;) I guess we just might see some of this vs WKU today.

GO CARDS - BEAT EVERYBODY!!! God Bless America!!!

I'm convinced this young man is the second coming of LaBradford Smith. A 6-3, 210lb pure athletic basketball player. Damn glad he's on the roster!!


LA part 2.
Finally got to watch the game and it was LaBradford with Alvin Sims force type dunks.
The last one i rewound 4 times!
Coach Pitino had a GREAT recruiting class !

WIth Mitchell and Spalding, they alone are better than any other Pitino UL recruiting class. If Adel comes along as we expect him to, this is a hell of a recruiting class.

Mitchell is fun to watch. That's for sure.

His 3 point shot is looking good.

I didn't realize he only made 7 three pointers before the Utah Valley game. Seems like he made more than that.
 
Mitchell showed what a hell of an athlete he was yesterday. I loved his post-game interview. Articulate, intelligent ... he showed how level-headed he is and how determined he is that the team excel.

I think this team is going places.

Wouldn't surprise me to see Lewis at PG and Mitchell starting at the 2G in the very near future.

Not sure why everyone thinks Lewis can suddenly become a PG. he's a guy that has average less than 3 assists per game. The reason we lost against UK - 8 total assists. 2 total assists between Lewis, Lee and Snider. Mitchell had 3. All the talk about the team chemistry and it all boiled down to selfishness and not team basketball. When we figure that out we will be a great team not just a good team.
 
I really like Mitchell's game. He has so much potential and I really think he has a chance to be one of the great UofL guards by the time his college career is over. He has already shown a lot just a couple months into his freshman season. Plus after hearing his comments after the Uk game where he sounded so mature as well as saying he offered our 5th year senior Lee some encouragement after that last shot didn't fall speaks volumes for this young man.

I can't put this game behind me without commenting on this kid's heart.Loud and clear to me on Saturday that he hates to lose and plays accordingly.I saw the hurt in the defeat and the desire during the game to keep it from happening.I truly appreciate it.

I agree I don't think Lewis is a PG. Mitchell is more of a playmaker than he is. He has always been a scorer and will be a scorer. Mitchell is going to have to play point blank he's to good to sit on the bench. Question is rather is Lewis or Q's minutes he gets.
