The bad news: Both of our All Star guards having been playing poorly this month. One considerably worse than the other.
The good news: we're atill 7-2 this month despite this effort.
The thing I find odd: Why is Mitchell's usage the highest its been all season? The mantra of "The Cavs are doing more because Mitchell is doing less" has seemingly gone out the window lately. You would think if the groin injury were slowing him down then he might not be taking on more workload.
Hope these guys can turn it around quickly here!

Darius with his usual yearly slump.
Slumps are inevitable. Better to do it now than in the playoffs!
Mitchell is trying to shoot through his slump which the coaching staff is probably supportive of tbh. It hasn’t looked pretty and maybe it’s not the best way for him to break out of it, but he seems like the kind of player that desperately needs to see some go through to find his shot again. One thing I’ve always like about him is that he’s never afraid to shoot even if they haven’t been falling. That can hurt you in a few games here and there but generally you want your elite scorer to have supreme confidence at all times.
83% free throw shooting for an all star guard is absolutely abysmal. He really needs to fix that. He’s been leaving so many points at the line.
Believe Spida’s usage is more to get him outta this funk.
Not the time of year to start pooping your pants
Getting nightmares of how we just turned bad the last month of the last couple seasons.
Bro why do we always suck at the end of the season. Happened 3 straight years
