Donovan Mitchell called out of fans in the loss of Pacers with injuries

The defeat of Sunday against the Indiana Pacers in game 4 of the semi -finals of the Eastern Conference increased the violation of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Cavs not only made an embarrassing effort on the way to a loss of 129-109, which put them in a 3-1 deficit, but also lost the Star Guard Donovan Mitchell to an ankle injury.

Mitchell experienced discomfort in his ankle, which came from half -time and set throughout the second half. He missed the last four games of the regular season with a left -wing ankle injury, but it was not assumed that it was a serious problem at that time.

It would probably have made no difference if Mitchell were healthy enough to take the court in the last two periods. The Pacers went half-time at 80-39 and led up to 44 points to get the game out of reach, apart from a miracle that never came for the cavs.

Cleveland was assumed from the beginning and was held on only 8-von 32 shootings in the first two quarters. Swingman de'andre Hunter's push on Indiana Guard Bennedict Mathurin in retaliation for a blow to the chest was the only moment of fighting the cavs in a game they had to win. Instead, they are now shortly before removal.

The fans on social media were more than ready to call the cavs for their miserable performance in the loss of Game 4 on Sunday:

What made the performance of Cleveland even more surprising on Sunday was that the team in game 3 achieved a dominant 22-point victory on Friday. The Cavs seemed to return to the form that brought them number 1 in the east in this game, but this effort was nowhere to be found in game 4.

When the series returns to Cleveland for Game 5 on Tuesday, the basketball world is surprised at the status of Mitchell. If he is forced to align, the Cavs could be about to collapse just before another disappointing playoff.
