The grounds of the SpaceX launch site were quiet. For a place that contained billions of dollars worth of equipment and materials, Donovan was surprised that there didn’t seem to be any physical security presence outside the building – just cameras. “Aren’t you afraid someone is watching us?” he asked in a whisper, pointing up…

Donovan Mitchell All 187 Three-Pointers Full Highlights (2017-18 Season Three-ilation Part I)
Hours passed. Outside the abandoned house that Joe Ingles and Donovan Mitchell had sought refuge in, Elon Musk was ranting and raving, becoming more deranged with each passing minute. What started with simple pleas for Joe and his “boyfriend” to come out of hiding had turned into threats of injury or even death for both…

Standing on the observation platform with the rest of the spectators, Donovan Mitchell watched the SpaceX launch with a despair that was completely at odds with the rest of the group’s jubilation. His teammate and friend Joe Ingles was in that spacecraft, a craft that was headed for Mars despite its occupant’s total lack of…

And so, the Utah Jazz season comes to an end. It was fun, everybody. I would be more emotional, but I keep thinking about how if the Jazz had kept Nate Wolters things would’ve been different, and that thought makes me upset. Things also would’ve been different if Donovan Mitchell had distributed his scoring more…

Donovan Mitchell is slowing down a little bit, overburdened by the responsibility of being the only dude on the court for the Jazz who can even begin to create his own shot. At least Ricky Rubio could sometimes do things, now, every time I see a Joe Ingles iso, I cry. I love that guy,…

The Jazz winning their series with the Thunder seems like some kind of grand cosmic demonstration of the power of teamwork triumphing over the forces of iso-ball. It is very easy for us dumb humans to assign a larger moral meaning to things like these. However, I think the truth of it is simpler: this…

Usually I complain when a player makes too many layups (“LAME-ups”) because they’re not as fun to watch as jumpshots. However, for this Donovan Mitchell video, I’m not going to complain about all the layups he made because none of them fit the definition of “LAME-up”, which is literally just “a lame layup”. All of…

Donovan Mitchell is taking his role as Utah’s primary scorer seriously. Very seriously. He is at the pinnacle of seriosity right now: 47 shots attempted over the two games, with 5 assists. Now that’s dedication! This is the time when I would normally complain about him being a chucker, and it’s not an invalid complaint,…

I don’t blame Donovan Mitchell for coming out of the game after stubbing his toe. It really hurts! You’re just walking around, everything’s cool, and then you run your toe into a corner at a million miles per hour. Agony. Pure agony. I once called 9-1-1 because I was pretty sure that I was going…

We’re rapidly approaching the time when I can no longer upload Donovan Mitchell highlights to my channel. Realistically, he’s probably been too good for a while now, but next season, when he’s no longer a rookie, I’ll have no choice but to hand him off to those other channels. I expect him to have some…
