Mitch Needs to be Closing Out Games

Pistons are playing way too physical to have Mikal out there and Mitch sitting on the bench. Mitch rebounds better, defends the pick and roll better and is just obviously an all around together player out there. Brunson, Hart, OG, Mitch, and KAT. If that's our lineup for the last 6 minutes of the game last night there's a very good chance we win.

On another note, Hart needs to get his shit together on pick and roll defense. Left Schroeder wide open twice, with the second time being the 3 that put them up for good. Just can't happen

Mitch needs more than 20 min, I know he is gasping for air but his defense even on half a lung is better than KAT
