Is the World Cup a participation trophy? 6 different champions in the last 6 tournaments

[Fred Katz @FredKatz]

Jalen Brunson at the championship parade "There's a lot of people who have a lot of negative stuff to say. There's a lot of people who have their own opinions. But when you prove them wrong, you don't have to say shit to them. They don't deserve it."

[Legion Hoops @LegionHoops]

Jalen Brunson:

“There are a lot of people who say a lot of things. There are people who have a lot of opinions out there, negative things. But when you win, you never again have to respond to that bullsh*t.”

[Danny Small @dwsmall8]

@F_O_M_O_Sapien It’s the overflow from all the people who couldn’t get in

[Danny Small @dwsmall8]

WOW! The crowd in Times Square for the Knicks parade is unbelievable

[Danny Small @dwsmall8]

The amount of people getting mad at this is hilarious. There is definitely an asterisk on the title

[Tom Haberstroh @tomhaberstroh]

I slept on it. I had to do it.

The New York Knicks title deserves an asterisk.

They join my definitive short list of NBA championships with an asterisk: https://t.co/RVVvIwVCdB

People don’t realize what they just saw 🤯

[Danny Small @dwsmall8]

@SteveZim16 I don’t think the next Yankees parade will be half this crowded. This is the biggest NY championship in any of our lifetimes by a mile

[Danny Small @dwsmall8]

If I were a team facing an "easy" path like this in the playoffs, I would beat those bad teams by more than any team has beaten anyone in NBA history.

Which the Knicks did

[The Fan Report @The_Fan_Report]

The Knicks playoff run wasn’t as impressive as it seems…

Round 1: CJ McCollum Hawks…

Round 2: Sixers… Embiid has never been out of Round 2.

Round 3: Playoff choker James Harden

NBA Finals: A team with a rookie coach and 3 best players are 20-21-22 years old

[ShwinnyPooh, Knicks championship enjoyer @shwinnypooh]

Age 27-29 playoff stats:

Harden - 29.4 PPG, 7.2 APG, 4.5 TOV, 41.2/31.0 splits, 48.8 eFG, 56.3 TS

Brunson- 29.8 PPG, 6.8 APG, 2.8 TOV, 45.7/34.8 splits, 50.9 eFG, 56.5 TS

Shut the fuck up man.

Brunson also chipped up in this timeframe. Harden never even got to a Finals.

[Skip Bayless @RealSkipBayless]

Jalen Brunson has a little Messi in him.

Make it make sense

[Stefan Bondy @SbondyNBA]

In another world, the Knicks would be playing Game 6 tonight.

Instead they’re at the World Cup.

You can either be V**** G********* OR you can be Zack Lowe. Choose wisely from whom you get your basketball discourse from

[Danny Small @dwsmall8]

Contrary to popular belief, basketball is played on a court not a spreadsheet

[Taylor Wyman @taylormetrics]

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills

How did OG not win Finals MVP? His scoring volume and efficiency was insane

@automaticnba for the data

[ShwinnyPooh, Knicks championship enjoyer @shwinnypooh]

Nash, Paul, Harden, etc. don't have a couple of those on their Basketball Reference pages no matter how angry that fact makes you 🤷🏾‍♂️

[Austin Null @AustinNull]

I’ve had hundreds of interactions all day with Knicks fans and the VAST majority genuinely believe that the Knicks will win in 5.

Like with confidence I would follow into a battlefield 😭😂

But like…that is just a STATISTICALLY & OBJECTIVELY delusional thing to think 😭😂

[Dylan Backer @DylanBackerESM]

Here’s a pretty wild stat:

In the NBA Finals, Jalen Brunson had a lower defensive FG% (38.2%) than unanimous DPOY Victor Wembanyama (42.7%).

[Subria Whitaker @SubriaWhitaker]

@CelticsAdam34 Is the championship team in the room with us?
