The coaching just shows. Long way to go but he is a different player this year.

Thibs has hinted about other things to come, assuming it's offense. Obviously not there yet so we shall see.

Mitch would average an easy 15 points a game with a halfway decent PG and shooting around them. NY's PGs and players miss soooooo many easy Mitch plays

Yeah it seems like Barrett is the only guard capable of finding him and that’s not good. Man is aversging 30 ish mins for first time in his career. Just need a PG to reward him with lobs.

We still need better PGs and shooter.

We have need a high tier pg since the 90’s and have needed better shooting since 2014

I agree...we've been starving for a solid PG. Remember how Jason Kidd turned this offense around, when he was running point, eventhough past his prime. But we also needed other positions as well. I feel like this team only needs to fix the PG spot and continue to add shooters. In the past, we needed a new system, coach, gm, pg, center, etc.... Now we got thibs, im sure he will turn any young shooter into a 2 way player. And young shooters are easy to find. But having the right PG is really the key....we already have the center spot on lock. A good PG would do wonders for mitch, agree 10000%

Mitch is also 3 yrs into the nba. Remember he came from HS....and spent 1 year in and out of lifetime fitness. So his basketball IQ was rare and hasn't fully developed. Hes starting to shine now, with experience and coaching improvement. I think having a penetration pg and guards like RJ, helps mitch with put backs.

I'm not worried about IQ....I think the entire team is not in shape enough to handle thibs practice. But Randle looks like he was prepared. And I think mitch was mentioned during the bubble for working out, including RJ...which is probably why he's getting so many mins. But I love how mitch is using his height and length more, instead of trying to kill every block.

I gotta be honest...Payton had me worried there for a moment 😓

It was fun for a few games. The last 2 games have been really ugly. Mitch looks all right. He would be so much better with a real PG. I just wonder how much he will cost to keep. I would move him in the right deal

Mitch will ask for Gorbert money. I can imagine if not he’ll find ANOTHER agent to tell him what he wants to hear.
He won’t get paid that kind of scratch until he can exist at the top of the key and pass/Shoot a bit more. Not stretch, but at least be enough of a threat to hit a jumper where the foul line is and pull his man out on defense.
