00:00If you had to take one of the Knicks regulars away, if you were told you had to miss one
00:05for a game, for two games, for the whole series, for ten minutes, who would you pick?
00:09Would it be Mitch or would it be somebody else?
00:11You don't necessarily have to answer who the other person would be, but I think he would certainly be high
00:15on the list of that answer.
00:16Which is like, obviously, it's not taking Brunson out of the mix. It's not taking OG out of the mix.
00:20And so, I do think that what he does is hard to replicate, but I think the Knicks, the way
00:26they're playing, can probably do something to counterbalance that.
00:29It is hard to replicate, but at the same time, we've seen, especially last series against Cleveland, that there were
00:35a lot of games that, because he can't shoot free throws and other teams are going hack a Mitch, that
00:39it's been a weird postseason for him.
00:41Because we know how impactful he can be, but he hasn't had these great impacts that he hasn't, you know,
00:46in past postseasons.
00:47The thing that would worry me the most, Jared, honestly, is, and we didn't see him much in the last
00:51series, we saw it a lot in the previous series.
00:53If Cat gets two quickies, then he gets a third early in the second, then all of a sudden, what
00:58are you going to do?
00:58Because, I mean, you're willing to play a small lineup for a small bit, you're willing to play Mitch for
01:03as long as they don't have to worry about the foul situation.
01:06But if you're now playing without Cat and without Mitch, and you're playing against Wemby, but even if you're playing
01:11against Chet Holmgren, who, by the way, is also 7-2, then what are you going to do?
01:16Yeah, that's a concern.
