Standing on buisness. Donovan Mitchell wants the Cavs to continue this momentum

Weh handling our business you know that’s that’s you know that’s the biggest thing we came out tonight after a shaky start to the game the other night you know um we want to come out and set the T night I think we did that you know and we just played steady

Basketball throughout you know I think the biggest thing is taking care of these games and continuing to to move forward and that’s it’s expected of us that’s what we expect to do and we came out and did what we were supposed to do the word trust just keeps coming up

Amongst the group how much is is that playing into what we are seeing you guys do out in the floor yeah you know it’s it’s 1 through 15 um I think the biggest thing like i’ like I’ve said when you have guys like these two have been out

You know you got to do it as a collective it’s not just one person and I think we’ve all taken that you know when you got guys that know the game moving the ball moving around um being able to execute makes life easier it feels like sometimes we keep seeing

Something new every night and tonight we got to see Sam Merill defensively hit a level that our fans haven’t seen did you know that he had that in him yeah you know you look at like I said through Camp through practice he has he has an

Effort he has an intensity you know and I think that’s something that you know for for for him he takes pride in that whether it’s the charges getting stops getting those rebounds he even almost protected the rim last night or the other game you know what I mean so just

For a guy like him to bring that effort and energy it rubs off on everybody but we’re not surprised by a lot of things that we’re seeing you know as a team where we’ve we’ve seen it throughout the season throughout Camp so um this ain’t nothing new it felt like a Dun contest

At some points tonight how much fun is it to see when everybody’s playing at that high level yeah you know I think it started with ja you know and trickle down you know Max Max surprised me when he you know was Duncan over the summer

When we first signed him so um you know I think the the the biggest thing now is just you know who’s gonna who’s going to do it next Who’s Next you know I thank you J probably had the best one tonight you know and we’ll see what happens as

As we continue to go but um it’s interesting not being in it and watching it you know what I mean I think that’s that’s what’s uh that’s what’s pretty cool about it just kind of watching and and especially Max you know Max is very quiet but also like you know gets angry

Gets up there so it’s um It’s pretty dope to see at any point did it feel like everybody was kind of compete to see who could get the next best one no honestly I just felt I’m not going to I mean it’s the the Team Heads but it

Really felt like we were just locked in what we were doing you know we got a lot of stops and then ultimately got to run outs and got to those those things and that’s what happens when you you know you’re playing good defense you’re doing things the right way you get those uh

You get those opportunities Donan What specifically has stood out to you about Jarrett during this 10 game stretch obviously I could say his aggressiveness but you know I really truly feel like he’s been doing this this is this is who he is I mean at the

Level maybe not 20 rebounds a night but like he’s he’s a guy that you know continuously comes in and does this and I think that you know the outside world you know not not saying you guys necessarily but the outside world necessar doesn’t near look at it like

Look at what he’s doing is like a complete you know like where is this coming from but like I said we’ve seen it he’s been a guy that’s consistent you know whether it’s in the the training room on the court getting to his stuff and you know he’s been a guy that’s

Really taken on a lot you know with uh with AF being out you know he’s done it himself and you know down there obviously with the help of T time as well but you know I think the biggest thing is you know he’s just taking it upon himself you know going out there

And whether it’s offensively I got mad I got mad at him today when he traveled so he looked at the side so I was like no like throw you the ball you go you know like don’t even think about it um and I think that’s something that’s we we breed that confidence to

Him and he has that confidence right now have you in any way taken it upon yourself to make sure that he’s more involved on the offensive end to the floor we I honestly haven’t had to say anything to him I think the biggest thing the only thing I would so the only

Thing I have said is just go like you know what I mean don’t like there are times where he gets and looks around like no like you’re looking at you and I think um when I was sick I seen on the broadcast think I shoots like 60% on

Those mid-range jumpers or whatever I’m like can I tell them 60% shoot it Let it Fly they go for the shot they go ahead get to the rim whatever it may be um but you know I think the biggest thing when the ball’s in his hands like in the

Elbow area where the top top of the key we have the ultimate trust in him um as a group you ready to start the allstar campaign for him oh yeah for sure I don’t know I don’t know why he keeps on I know why he keeps being politically correct with his answers but

Definitely starting the the uh Allstar campaign for JA for show so make sure you guys go vote three times for the next hour and 30 minutes so go for

“We’re handling our business. We came out and did what we were supposed to do.”
