Mitchell raises both the floor and ceiling of the Rockets. Guarantees this team as a top 6 seed and gives them a fighting chance in the playoffs. We know he is an all-time performer in the playoffs.
Let's be honest. Rockets should give up Jalen Green. There is no way you can convince me that Jalen Green's ceiling is greater than Mitchell's.
Mitchell's first 3 seasons. 23/4/4/1 on 44/35/82 (low usage in that Jazz swing offense) Mitchell in the playoffs 27/4/5/1 on 43/37/88 in 23 games (higher usage)
Jalen Green first 3 seasons. 20/3/3 on 42/34/79 Never made the playoffs. Both are bad on defense.
