Thanks. I guess 1) how you leave and 2) what you accomplished while you were there make all the difference. Contrast this with Ben Simmons and Philadelphia.
You neglected to mention that, in addition to looking good, the Cavs won a glorious victory over the Lakers, 116-102. The ESPN headline was "Mitchell upstages LeBron at home."
Back in my Knicks fanhood purgatory, I would have been bitter about how Cleveland swooped in to claim Donovan Mitchell, snatching him from the jaws of New York. The Knicks and their fans really thought they were going to get him from the Jazz.
Now, though, I am "Que sera, sera."
