Mitchell's destination is one that has multiple years of great opportunity to win the championship. Everyone wants to say NYK/Brooklyn. Yes playing at home would be nice but winning is much more important.

I mean, that's my point. Miami simply doesn't have multiple years of great opportunity to win the championship. Playoff Jimmy is like 75% of the reason people consider Miami a contender even though their talent level has taken them to the play-in two years in a row.

Butler did not have a great year. And as usual Miami is hurt.
I feel Miami with Mitchell is better than Cleveland today.

Ok then why is he going to Miami

Because a team of Adebayo, Jaquez, Herro, Robinson, Mitchell, a solid PF is a good group that can win.

I think Cleveland is a great place to stay but only if Garland is traded for a good shooting SF.

I don’t see either NY team being there.

A team of Adebayo, Jaquez, Herro, Robinson, Butler was a play-in team.

Exactly. Mitchell is much better than Butler.
