Good find. I find him very funny. I remember watching him on "Boston Public" (tv show). Believe his name is Michael though.

Speaking of his time in Boston, didn’t he win a ring there?
 
Yeah this is the podcast wear Mitchell says he wears size 15 shoes off the court and 16 on the court.

Never heard of anyone wearing size 15 being 6'1.
 


Wish I could post a different clip from True Romance, but it has a ****-word
 
Every time I listen to Donovan I love him more. He’s not just an amazing player, he’s truly a good, humble, and amazing person overall. His mother did a great job raising him, and there’s absolutely nothing I don’t like about him. I’ll be a fan of his his entire career no matter where he goes, but fingers crossed he’ll wear a Jazz uniform his entire career and hang in the rafters one day.
 
Members of the Jazz sure have done a lot of podcasts over the past couple years. Kind of seems like the Jazz have made it a point to get out of their bubble and get people to pay attention.
 
I don't know if this vid has been posted but it gave me goosebumps, very well edited and with everyone praising the "Spida". I feel like I'm in a state where I still don't fully realize how good we could have it with Mitchell. My goodness.



That was awesome

DL and Quin are relationship guys for sure. DM is really interesting and I am surprised he hasn't gotten even more attention. He's crazy talented and the most likable Jazz player maybe ever.

Donovan gives you a warm feeling. Someone like Hayward, although good and worked hard while he was here, still gave off a cold feeling as the face of the franchise. D-Will had his moments of both hot and cold it seems but as a fan after listening to him after the fact, I still like Deron a lot. Stockton and Malone are the all time greats still, and we’re always indebted to the greatness they brought to this franchise.

Donovan’s career is not even a half season in at this point, and the love for him is so obvious already.Hes great, and I’m beyond happy the Jazz have him, but we also have a long way to go. Part of what happens from here on out is kind of on the Jazz. They need to make some trades and moves to give Mitchell and Gobert a little more help in any way they can. If you have 2 stars in Mitchell and Gobert, and I still think Exum could very well be a star still if he can be healthy, then you have a decent core, but they need to make some moves to get some complimentary pieces that fit better. We have Donovan for a while, and talking about future contracts is premature, but it seems he is one hell of a competitor and doesn’t like losing, which means the Jazz better be dedicated to winning. If Mitchell continues his play over this contract, the Jazz should just throw the money at him, don’t do what you did to Hayward and make him go get his own contract for them to match it, treat him right. Donovan seems like a loyal good guy who appreciates those that have believed in him, and so long as the organization does the right things, tries to win, and treats him right. He’ll be here a long time.

Like I said, he’s got a long career to go, but if he stays on this path and wears a Jazz jersey during his career, he may go down as the most loved and remembered Jazz player ever. People already love him so hes off to the great start. 2,500 people at a meet and greet 30 games in, is no joke. When 1280 the zone talked to Locke yesterday and said “ive never been so excited about a Jazz team that just went 3-10.” That’s my feelings exactly, and it’s all because of this 21 year old kid that played in Louisville. He’s great, and I’m excited to watch his career.
