Cavaliers on brink of playoff ouster against Knicks; Donovan Mitchell says 'we'll fix it'

New York Knicks fans spent the summer dreaming Donovan Mitchell would lead their team to playoff victories inside Madison Square Garden.

Mitchell was on the court for a pair of Knicks playoff victories at the Garden over the weekend -- just not in the uniform anyone around the NBA expected.

After the Cleveland Cavaliers allowed the Knicks to take a 3-1 lead in their best-of-seven first-round series, Mitchell declared things would be different in Cleveland for Wednesday's Game 5 (7 p.m. ET, NBA TV).

"I played like s---," Mitchell said after shooting 5-for-18 in Sunday's 102-93 loss in Game 3.
