Donovan Mitchell is many things—an All-NBA superstar, the face of the Cleveland Cavaliers, a dunk contest champion. But, after scoring just 11 points in a 5-18 disasterclass in the Cavs' 102-93 Game 4 loss, he's mainly the butt of Knicks' fans jokes. After dicing the Knicks up in the first two games of the series, Mitchell never found a groove in the Cavs' two losses in New York. And Knicks fans on Twitter are letting him hear it.

“Just like we all predicted last summer” wrote Knicks Film School host Andrew Claudio on Twitter, “Donovan Mitchell is doing everything he can to help the Knicks win a playoff game.”

 

“Number of first-round picks the Cavs traded for Donovan Mitchell: 3” tweeted Knicks writer Tommy Beer. “Number of first-round pick swaps the Cavs traded for Mitchell: 2. Number of All-Stars the Cavs traded for Donovan Mitchell: 1. Number of made FGs in the second half in Game 4 by Donovan Mitchell: 1”
