Jazz and Knicks discussing Donovan Mitchell trade per Shams Charania and Tony Jones

Herro because Donovan would take the ball out of Scoot’s hands where it needs to be for him to be successful.
Herro does the same thing. He had a 29% usage rate and it's only going to increase when he gets a starter role and a max contract.
Donovan’s was 33% this year and Herro played off the bench so he naturally is going to have a higher usage rate doing that.

Scoot. And I think Herro is overrated as sh*t. The playoffs should show you this. But Mitchell is an obvious 2 that needs a taller/defensive one to complement him. For example, the Warriors have had Klay Thompson do this for years. Curry is the 1 on offense. and if the opposing team has a dominant PG Klay guards him. (Paul, Westbrook, Smart, Doncic.....)

You need guys like that. Dude is 22 and just put up great offensive numbers on a great team. He's the third best player on a title contender right now.
I'd want to negotiate an extension prior to doing the deal but if you can lock him in to an acceptable deal I think he'd be a great asset to help start the rebuild. He's a step away from being an all-star caliber player and is at an age where guys take steps.
5 years. 0 times on any All-NBA team, despite being the focus of the offense. We know he's not.

It’s like they don’t even know how great DM is in playoffs.

Years of experience and the earning of certain awards.
Listening to the Fred Katz/Danny Leroux pod where they are talking about Don/Knicks and going over the Knicks future.
They talked about how bad the Knicks spacing is. Supposedly Mitchell Robinson is pretty bad at setting picks. Donovan bout to get a rude awakening.

Your opinion.
NBA award voting is a joke. Not a true barometer for value. Russell Westbrook has loads of awards including an MVP but has never been a winner.

Never been a winner?
You can hate on Russ all you want, but the guy is the ultimate floor raiser and has won a ton in his career.
You need a 6th man like that. You dont need a starter like that.
and the finals

I admire Russ and his fight, but he wasn't the catalyst on that team.
Regardless - my point is not that he lacks value. Its a counter point to the point about Don's lack of awards. Russ won awards that other guys were more deserving of. MVP because he got an triple double season? Has he ever been better than LBJ, KD, etc.
NBA awards are a joke.

Who are the franchise players that never won an All-NBA award?
He's been the most valuable player in the NBA because he was responsible for the a team who shouldnt have won at all won games.
NBA Awards can be tilted, but they arent a joke. You sound like a fanboy who is butthurt.
I like Barrett a lot too.
