Maybe it's because I'm so used to watching Steph Curry play, but he deals with physicality much worse than this in random February games, and the difference between these clips and Curry is that the refs don't give him these calls, he just has to play through it.
@Schmeelk 100% agreed.
Brunsons’ excellent play was always this teams’ FLOOR.
But Kat was always the one that could raise the ceiling. (I also thought OG too)…
Jeremy Lin QUIT on the city of NY, the Knicks organization and his teammates during that playoff run and I will NEVER forget it.
He chased that check and his NBA career fizzled.
Fuck him.
@KnicksAttorney@shwinnypooh I think Shamet has tried but didn’t get the call. That being said, it does need to be looked at a bit more. At the very least he needs to disguise it a bit more as most players TRY to do.
He doesn’t even attempt to hide it and still gets away with it
"We need to finish the game better. It was unacceptable, the way we let that 14 point lead go the way we did."
Jalen Brunson on what the Knicks need to clean up for Game 3:
Gregg Popovich spoke with the Spurs before they flew to New York
Stephon Castle on his message: "Let the last two games go. It happened. They were very winnable games, we felt like we gave them those games. Let them go."
This is why I laugh when people say Brunson is having a bad series. Of course he is. Every possession looks like a deleted scene from Mortal Kombat and the refs are treating it like legal defense.
Opinión impopular:
San Antonio está haciendo un mejor trabajo defendiendo a Brunson que NY con Wemby.
Lamentablemente Victor se sabotea solo con las decisiones que toma + la poca ayuda que parece haber desde lo táctico.
¿Qué opinan?
@HanaHoops I knew this was gonna be a possible response. Really underestimating Brunsons’ scoring ability haha. He might go off in game 3 - would be great to get full game brunson burner haha
Irmão… A MENTALIDADE DOS CARAS DO KNICKS TÁ COMPLETAMENTE BLINDADA!
🗣️ - Mikal Bridges:
“Tá tudo 0 a 0, tudo 0 a 0! Estamos desesperados, totalmente desesperados!”
🗣️ - Jalen Brunson:
“Mesmo com o que a série está agora, no próximo jogo a mentalidade tem que ser 0-0 novamente. É assim que tem que ser. Você não pode ficar confortável, você não pode se satisfazer com nada!”
🗣️ - Josh Hart:
“Até onde eu sei essa série não está 2-0, está 0-0. Segunda-feira entraremos em quadra totalmente desesperados e precisando ser melhor!”
🗣️ - Karl Anthony-Towns:
“Não penso no passado, essa série está 0-0 e o próximo jogo é o jogo mais importante do ano. Deixa o passado, não vamos focar nisso.”
🗣️ - Landry Shamet:
“O que aconteceu ficou no passado e somente no passado, isso já foi. A única coisa que eu tenho pra dizer é que teremos um jogo no Garden estando 0-0 e totalmente desesperados pra vencer.”
2-0 é o placar MAIS PERIGOSO do basquete, e os jogadores do New York Knicks sabem disso.
@SiteNYK I think it would be dumb to say Brunson doesn’t care a little bit- but I have no doubt he doesn’t care a lot and would be happy for a teammate and friend that is Kat get the finals MVP.
He doesn’t care to be the center-he wanted a TEAM, hence why he took the pay cut
