Donovan Mitchell best player in the NBA when his team is down and the game is out of reach. All the minutes of the game before that he’s terrible

And this is how you should know JAMES HARDEN is fuckin icon chip or no chip. He was a great 1 and 2 regardless of how you feel about him. Everyone can’t just change positions and thrive.
Players in the Suns’ locker room are frustrated by the lack of a true point guard on the roster, per @ChrisBHaynes
"There's some growing frustration within that locker room for the simple fact that that roster does not have a point guard that can organize that offense... I don't know that the Suns are looking to address as of right now, the hope is that they can kind of play this role by committee, but as of right now, it's not looking like it."

Asked #Sixers star Joel Embiid about his offensive success when being defended by James Harden and whether they’ve patched up their relationship: “Me and James are great. We talked all night. He’s one of the best players, top 3 player, I've ever played with.”

I remember asking assistant coach Mo Cheeks, what’s harder to do? Workout after practice or before?? I only asked cuz by time I would get to the gym, Russ was already done in the morning and I usually got mine in after practice. Mo like, “coming in before practice is probably harder”…since then, it’s been my routine….a lot of people looked at the emotions on the court and thought Russ was loud, nah to me, he was quiet and methodical. He lead by example and once the lights were bright, he let everything out and experienced pure freedom. It was inspiring as his teammate and everywhere I went, I seen it inspire people from all walks of life, crazy thing is, he didn’t say much, he just showed up. For 18 years. This basketball life is sacred to us as professionals, what we put into that court means everything. Some of us wish we could go back and do things with a little more intent and some can just wipe their hands and be satisfied with the time spent. Who u gonna be? We know what zero was on…keep inspiring in the next phase of life champ. I don’t care what happens, can’t erase what it was…The first YNs, finals run in our early 20s, all star games, seeing each other get injured and bounce back, the bus rides, plane rides, card games, jokes and arguments, the whole thing, memorable!! …to the whole Westbrook family, Nina, the kids, mama Westbrook, big Russ, Ray, Donnell, everybody from luezinger high and ucla and many more that I’m forgettin, much love and Congratulations on a iconic career.
