Donovan Mitchell: A playoff game is like war. Every little detail matters. Every possession.

Every 3. Every layup. Every free throw.

Every turnover. Every block. Every defensive stop.

The crowd. It’s just one of those things where it takes a lot out of you. It takes everything out of you just to play one, and you got to do it again and again and again.

People always say, “Man, that playoff intensity, I wish you could create it throughout the whole season. ” It’s tough to do. It’s hard to do that because it just takes so much out of you every single time.
