The first round of scripts has been recreated! The Celtics, as always, lost G2 and the Cavaliers tied 1-1, and then went to the away road The Celtics beat the Cavaliers 106-93 today, leading 2-1 overall! This is carved out of a mold with playing the Heat, and the Heat also won the G2 game, and was later eliminated by the Green Army in three consecutive cities. This overall hard power really can't be ignored, and the strength of Tatum and Jaylen Brown is still powerful. On the Cavaliers' side, Mitchell really tried his best, and his teammates were able to stand up in the last game, but today Mitchell was unable to stand alone.
The two sides were still evenly matched in the first quarter, and the Celtics led by two points at 30-28. But at the beginning of the second quarter, the Green Army's offensive could not be stopped, and the Cavaliers could only rely on Mitchell to support them, but Tatum and Jaylen Brown went crazy, Holiday also broke out, and with White White White, the Celtics led by 9 points at 57-48 at halftime. In the second half, Shuangtanhua still had undiminished firepower, and a wave of 14-0 directly hit the Flower Knights. Mitchell still feels good, and no one in the Green Army can stop him, but what can one person do? Eventually, the knight surrendered.
Tatum had 33 points, 13 rebounds and 6 assists, Jaylen Brown had 28 points and 9 boards, Holiday had 18 points and 8 boards, and White had 12 points. On the Cavaliers' side, Mitchell had 33 points and 6 rebounds, shooting 12-of-22 from the field and 7-of-12 from three-point range. Other teammates Mobley had 17 points, Garland 15 and LeVert 15. The current Cavaliers are indeed seriously lacking in talent, and Mitchell has done everything to tell the truth in three games against the Green Army. He scored 33 points on 12-of-25 shooting in the first game, 29 points on 10-of-19 shooting in the second game, plus 33 points today, playing like James in 18 years with the Cavaliers.
Mitchell shot 51.7 percent overall and 55.3 percent from three-point range in the three games. He averaged 29+5+4 per game throughout the playoffs, shooting 47.6% from the field and 35.4% from three-point range. It can be said that Mitchell is C. It's definitely a superstar performance, and the current knights have a headache. Mitchell said that if the Cavaliers don't make it to the division finals, they will leave, and this year's second round is basically capped. Mitchell has two years left on his contract, with a player option for the final year. In the 24-25 season, basically the Cavaliers will decide the direction, and if they can't persuade him to stay, they will most likely have to trade to avoid getting nothing.
Mitchell turned 28 in September and is in his prime. If the Cavaliers choose to trade Mitchell, I want a lot of his team. Among them, the Heat and the Rockets both want Mitchell very much, and the Heat want to use Mitchell to replace Butler as the team leader, so Riley doesn't want to renew Butler's contract, and the two have fallen out recently. Just like when the Heat forced Wade away, as long as the supergiant is old, the Heat are generally cold-blooded and ruthless, with the highest salary? Stop fantasizing. It's true for Wade, and it's true for Butler.
But the Heat are seriously short of chips, who can they come up with in exchange for Mitchell? On the contrary, the Rockets have a lot of chips, Udoka has wooed Mitchell this year, in a regular season game between the Rockets and the Cavaliers, Udoka asked Mitchell to come to Houston in public, and Mitchell did not refuse, and his eyes were a little ambiguous. In fact, compared to the Cavaliers, the configuration of the Rockets may be more attractive to Mitchell. If the Rockets want to take Mitchell, that means the team doesn't need Jalen Green. The fact is also obvious, whether it is supergiant or not is generally known by looking at the first year. For example, Banchero, such as Holmgren, and last year's champion Wembanyama.
Jalen Green has been three years, and it really doesn't work like this. If the Rockets package Jalen Green and all of the Nets draft picks, including the Rockets' own draft picks, they could get Mitchell from the Cavaliers. The Rockets have Shin Jing and Smith at the 4-5 position, Jokic Jr., Thompson at the 4 position, Dillon at the 3 position, and Van Jordan point guard is also configured for Mitchell, who is simply moving in. Then the bench Rockets have supernovas such as Ethan, Whitmore, Amen Thompson, etc. This year, the Rockets also have the Nets pick, and there is a 20% chance that they will be able to draw the top four. If the Rockets can get Mitchell, it will be no problem for them to enter the playoffs in the new season, and they can even rush to the championship. Houston pays a lot less tax than Cleveland, and Mitchell has both money and boss status, which can be described as the best of both worlds.
