Kenny Atkinson\u2019s team is now one win away from securing its spot in the Eastern Conference Semifinals.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after that victory, Mitchell turned his attention to another big sporting story in the city. With the 144th pick in the NFL Draft, the Cleveland Browns selected Shedeur Sanders, ending one of the biggest storylines of this year\u2019s draft cycle. Sanders had previously been projected as a potential first-round pick.<\/p>\n<p>Mitchell is one of Cleveland\u2019s most prominent sports stars. As such, he took it upon himself to send the latest draft pick a four-word message via social media.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWelcome to the Land,\u201d Mitchell posted on X.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s interesting is that both the Cavaliers and Browns are now stocked at the primary ball-handler position. Atkinson has Mitchell, Darius Garland, and Ty Jerome at his disposal. While Kevin Stefanski has rookie quarterbacks Sanders and Dillon Gabriel along with Joe Flacco\u00a0and\u00a0Kenny Pickett.<\/p>\n<p>The city of Cleveland will now wait to see whether Sanders can make an impact in the coming years. However, for the time being, all eyes will be on the Cavaliers as they continue to charge toward a spot in the Eastern Conference Finals.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Cavaliers\u2019 Mitchell Praises Miami Heat<\/h2>\n<p>The war of words between Garland and Tyler Herro has been an unexpected subplot to Cleveland\u2019s opening-round series against Miami. Both have taken shots at each other for perceived weaknesses on defense. When speaking to the media following Cleveland\u2019s latest win, Donovan Mitchell chose to ignore the noise and praise Miami\u2019s approach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the biggest thing is we understood of who we were playing,\u201d Donovan Mitchell said. \u201cUnderstanding that, regardless of if words were exchanged or not, this is a really talented group, really talented organization and really talented head coach\u2026I think, internally, we understand what\u2019s coming and what this group brings. We respect them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mitchell struggled in Saturday\u2019s game against Miami. The All-Star guard scored just 13 points and provided only one assist. He shot 4-of-14 from the field and only got to the line five times. Cleveland will need more from Mitchell in game four, especially if they\u2019re looking to secure a sweep.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Tyler Herro Sends Message to Cavaliers<\/h2>\n<p>During his own postgame press conference, Tyler Herro sent a message to the Cavaliers. The former Sixth Man of the Year doesn\u2019t expect his team to get swept in game four. Rather, he believes Miami will use the pressure to fight back in the series.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to be here,\u201d Tyler Herro said in his postgame news conference. \u201c\u2026It\u2019s not time to let go of the rope. We\u2019re going to play until the final buzzer\u2026That\u2019s who we are as an organization. We want to compete and we\u2019re not going out 4-0.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cleveland is the better team. They\u2019re hungrier, more talented, and play a style of basketball that brings the best out of everyone on their roster. Whether they win in four or five games, the fact is they\u2019re heading into the second round.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming week will be a good lesson for Sanders, as now he can experience the level of expectations and excitement the city of Cleveland brings to the table as a fan base. And if Atkinson\u2019s team can continue pushing forward, that excitement level could reach fever pitch in the coming months.<\/p>\n<p>Adam Taylor is a basketball reporter covering the Boston Celtics and Phoenix Suns for Heavy.
