Cleveland makes the most sense in terms of winning, but not for anything else.

That's why I'm semi-confident he's going to resign with the Cavs, unless they flame out in the first round again.

If they show improvement and have some playoff success, I'm not sure what bigger market team that wants to sign and trade for Mitchell gives him a better shot at winning.

Every player has a mix of priorities. Mitchell will get his money wherever he goes, and I'm sure he would prefer a big market... but he seems like a guy where a winning situation is a high priority.

I think if he has playoff success with the Cavs he could resign there.

I had a similar idea with the Cavs in 2011.

I thought Derrick Williams was really close in talent to Kyrie Irving and the Cavs needed a PG and a SF. My grand idea was they could take Williams #1 and then Brandon Knight #4.
