Watch Donovan Mitchell Animated on Cavs Bench During Game 4 vs. Knicks

Donovan Mitchell was not thrilled with his team's first-half performance against the New York Knicks in Monday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

An animated Mitchell was seen on the bench addressing his teammates during a half that saw the Cavs trail the Knicks by as many as 29 points and one that finished in a 68-49 deficit for Cleveland.

Mitchell was doing his part, with 20 points on 6-of-13 shooting from the field. But the Cavs nonetheless found themselves on the precipice of being swept, and it appeared Mitchell was making one last effort to rally the troops.
