On a team full of unsung mvps, Mitch sits near the top. Before, his main mpact was mainly on the defenisve side of the ball, now he impacts both sides of the ball, alomost equally. His ability to protect the paint by blocking and changing shots is understood, but his impact on the offensive end takes this team to another level. Martin posted a stat revealed we've shot 43% from the field before tonights game, yet we were still up 3-1. Mitch is approaching Moses Malone offensive rebounding levels....His ability to give us 2nd and sometimes 3rd opportunities on one possession is huge for a team that struggles with its shooting....

When Allen was a net, he was further along in his development than Mitch. Thats not the case anymore....

Picked most important game of his life to play the best game of his life ---- GOOD FOR MITCH --- he was an absolute BEAST on both ends.

I've always shown Mitch both love and appreciation.

💲 Mitch has been my favorite BIG FELLA @ CENTER since #33 Patrick Ewing (sorry Marcus Camby/Tyson Chandler).

Which is why I laughed MY ASS OFF @ fans who wanted to trade him away for a "Stretch 5" in MYLES TURNER (🤣)

And I've always MADE IT KNOWN Mitchell Robinson is a more DOMINANT X-FACTOR than Jarrett Allen and this Postseason, he's proven me; right.

I’ve been a fan of his ever since we drafted him as a raw prospect. Injuries snd foul trouble have been the two things that have held him back from taking that next step but he really dominated CLE

What impresses me the most about Mitch in the playoffs is his upper body strength vs other bigs. For most of his career he's been outmuscled in the paint. Mitch has tried playing at different weights, but he seems to have found a playing weight that makes the most of his skill set.

Thats it right there...He seems to be in better shape and is more disciplined on the defensive end and not taking himself out of the game by committing silly fouls. And so far, he has been injury free...."knocks on wood"

pretty wild that the matchup the Cavs had no answer for was Mitch.

Surprised they didnt give Lopez 5 minutes just throw some bodies around. We got Deuce in there... 5 straight games you got murdered on the boards. I guess maybe you try something different in game 6?

His OReb stat this season was already incredible. Almost 50:50 OReb:DReb and 8.3 OReb/100 possessions is insane.
But what he did in this series?

10.8 OReb/100 possessions. He is literally creating almost 11% more shot opportunities by himself.

Robinson is finally healthy and showing that he is a throwback big man who can impact games without fancy outside shooting. CLE had no answer for him. Hoping this continues with MIA.

What Rob did to Allen and Mobley in this series is almost a felony LOL

This picture really sums it up but also leads me to more questions. I know Robinson really stepped up in the playoffs, he was unstoppable in what he does, but he was really good in the regular season as well. Still, he gets no defensive team/ DPOY love or recognition as one of the better centers in the league. Mobley and Allen are considered top 50 players, among the top bigs in the league outside of the superstars. Mobley was a DPOY runner up and never seemed to impact the series defensively in any way. He wasn’t a major rim protector and got pushed around by Randle and Mitch. He also had no impact on offense. This is a guy who is currently listed as the 36th best player in the league on the Ringer player ranking (Allen is 52.) Mitch is outside of the top 100. I know these lists aren’t the end-all be-all, but how does a player dominate so much and how do these supposed top tier guys look so overmatched? Mitch just seems in a different weight class than these guys both literally and figuratively. Never in the series was I worried about Allen or Mobley having any sort of real impact. I only saw Mitchell and garland as threats. And maybe I have a short memory but I don’t remember it being any different in the regular season either.

Look at the offensive numbers side and you see why they are ranked higher. Look back to game two and how Allen and Mobley on offense worked. The Defense was pretty good too, Knicks countered and Cav's could not.
Look at his FT% and that he gets pulled from games for iHart.
You saw a 5 game match up were Mitch did great and your asking the questions. You not incorrect, but your asking "Why".
Win or lose if Mitch continues to impress you'll see his cred go up with media. Knicks Cred has because they are beat a higher seed and earned its 5th seed.
Mitches Trade value also goes up. Im not looking to deal him but if a Luka or Giannis shakes loose it could matter. Milwaukee can retool and get younger with a Knicks deal. Dallas loses Kyrie We could give them three starters-Randle, Mitch and IQ and their pick back.
ALl I said was "could". Not should.

Mitch is on a really nice contract.
TO his credit Mitch found his man strength and has really done well! His rise helps on the court and as a trade asset if need be.
Im showing him love.

Knicks would never get this in return but Mitch is probably worth more than the 4 FRPs the Wolves paid for Gobert.

Honest quotation: has anyone actually watched a game and been more than a little impressed with Allen?
I haven't

. We have to remember he was also a raw prospect so it was going to take some time and development which are now starting to show
