While it's tough to figure out exactly what Wade said, it definitely helped as the Jazz started to surge from that point on. The stormed right past the Clippers and took the lead in the fourth quarter, which they never relinquished.
Mitchell was definitely looking like a prime Dwyane Wade in this one. The All-Star came up big when his team needed him, notching 45 points on 16-for-30 shooting. Jazz fans may not have Wade playing for them on the court, but they have virtually the next best thing.
