And Donovan Mitchell looks incredibly frustrated because as he left the court, he had just this frustrated look on his face because I think he's thinking to himself, man, oh, man.
I need a lot more help from him because he's physically capable against this level defense, which Detroit is on that level with OKC.
They're big, they're physical, they hold, they grab.
It's just a war out there, every possession, and James Harden has the physical tools to play through that.
Not everybody does on that team.
He does, and yet...
He has another night where he has more turnovers than field goals made.
And we've talked a lot about that number of times that he's done that, which is incredible throughout his playoff career.
So I don't know that he finds that and turns that around mid-series against a defense this good.
It certainly isn't in a good place mentally as they go and change venues and they go to Cleveland now.
Yeah, he definitely is because there's just never been any player with that level of
of just size, length, with that kind of agility.
So I played with the tallest player that ever played in the NBA, 7'7", George Mirosan.
I played against Sean Bradley.
We know about Manute Boll, Yao Ming, go down the list, Mark Eaton, guys that get to that 7'4 and up range.
None of those guys moved around the floor.
This guy covers so much ground defensively.
