Knicks stun Cavaliers in Game 1 of NBA playoffs.

Donovan Mitchell's 38-point performance in Game 1 of the NBA playoffs against the New York Knicks demonstrated the sense of desperation required to win in the postseason. Mitchell's late first-half dive into the stands to save a loose ball showed his toughness and willingness to do whatever it takes to win. However, the Cleveland Cavaliers will need more than just Mitchell's heroics to advance past the Knicks, who established themselves as the deeper, tougher, and more opportunistic team in Game 1. Mitchell challenged his teammates to play better in Game 2 and hopes they will follow his lead.
