The evening of Playoffs this Wednesday Panzani had opened with the Knicks, which eliminated without trembling the Cavaliers, 4-1, in Cleveland. The star player of this series is none other than Jalen Brunson, who seems to have… a reason for living: to humiliate Donovan Mitchell in the postseason.
History always repeats itself.
At least, when it comes to Jalen Brunson and Donovan Mitchell.
Opponents in 2022 in the Playoffs when they were Mavs and Jazz players respectively, and JB had already beaten Spida hands down. Remember, in the first round of last year, Dallas had to start its series without an injured Luka Doncic, so it was Brunson who took over the reins of the team for the first three games. This is when the point guard will take one more step and kill the Utah defense while using the same pattern: drive, kickout, 3-pointers from Finney-Smith or any sniper in a corner.. With the gradual return of the Slovenian, the Mavericks will finally beat 4-2 the Jazz of Mitchell & Gobert, a duo on the verge of imploding.
This season, chance has therefore meant that our two friends of the day found themselves once once more in the Playoffs, in the other conference, with two new teams. But the result does not change, well if, but is even more humiliating for Dono. Because Jalen Brunson has proven he can be a trusted clutch leader and the Cavs can attest to that. As a famous football commentator said “he came to make love to them without foreplay and leave the business card”, inside and outside, in little mouse mode that infiltrates or 3-point sniper and this time without Luka Doncic to support him.
Look at this technical beauty.

On average, when Brunson finds Mitchell in the Playoffs, the current Knicks player peaks at 25.9 points on 46% shooting, 4.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 1.6 steals. More than honorable stats that Spida would love to have… because the best Mitchell in the series was playing in New York these last few days and it’s not even a debate. A little sad when we look back to the summer of 2022 saying that the Dono trade was to be the expected upgrade for the Cavs in the Playoffs. Little phrase of culture of the moment to spice up the sauce? “In the end, Lauri Markkanen, Collin Sexton and Ochai Agbaji weren’t so bad.”
The coming summer in Cleveland is going to be interesting to watch. Is the group going to experience profound changes? If yes, which ones ? Will JB Bickerstaff still be on the bench at the start of the school year? In the meantime, Jalen Brunson is feasting in the Big Apple, his feet are clean following wiping himself on Donovan Mitchell and his eyes are on South Beach now.
