Donovan Says He Loves Cleveland... But Does Cleveland Love Him Back?

Mitchell's postgame declaration of loyalty lands hollow for a fan base that never fully bought in, and Ken spends the segment trying to diagnose the disconnect between a team that reached the final four and a city that couldn't fill the plaza outside the arena. A caller named Rodney lays out the case methodically without calling for a teardown — three-point defense, lazy transition defense, turnovers, and a coach who waited too long on timeouts are fixable problems, not reasons to blow it up. The Knicks get their flowers too, with Ken admitting Landry Shamet shooting better than Curry and Thompson ever did in the playoffs is legitimately historic, and reluctantly conceding he's rooting for them while Lima absolutely is not.
