Is Brunson a better Knick than Ewing? Yes because he finished the job and gave the Knicks their long awaited championship but that shall not diminish Pat’s all time skill as a player.
But putting choker Judge in the same breath as Brunson is an insult to the latter
Either Michael Kay became more dense over time, or he’s just trying to run cover for the Yankee “captain”.
Better all time individually? Aaron Judge. King of NY by winning standards and in the clutch? Jalen Brunson. I’ve never seen Judge put up a historic performance

in the playoffs that matches the GOAT of his respective sport. Jalen Brunson put up 45 points in a closeout Finals game which had only been done by Michael Jordan previously.
Is Brunson on top of Jeter? No, that mountain still has to be climbed.
Tom Thibodeau is genuinely “very happy for the Knicks players and his guys for winning a historic championship” but is still hurt that the decision-makers made it appear he needed to be replaced, per @Ian_OConnor

You should get a bump when you win a ring, respectfully. But Brunson has another All Star and 2 other fringe All Stars. He also may have had the easiest path we’ve seen in recent years. Not putting him over certain people cause he had to go thru RJ Barrett & Dennis Schroeder
@Knicks_Mafia Respect to him for finally hiring the right people and showing more respect towards the fans. His motivational speech towards the team prior to the playoffs was special
The absolute amount of mental gymnastics people are doing on here in the wake of the #Knicks winning the chip is insane. Some people oughta touch grass.
Jalen Brunson is quickly becoming overrated as fuck but it's not surprising. The masses have always had a weird fetish for players on great teams who don't do much until the 4th quarter.

“I’m sorry, Larry O’Brien is a participation trophy?” – Alan Hahn
“If everybody gets one” – Vincent Goodwill
This is the worst part about non superstar players winning rings ppl think they can just go ahead and say nonsense. There’s no comparison between Brunson and Kobe dude.
Never thought I'd see the day that James Dolan, of all people, would give a championship memo to the entire team, but here we are. It's been hard to rally around him in the past, but wow, this speech is actually quite special. #Knicks
Also, so much for Brunson and Towns being defensive liabilities and not being able to co-exist together for the sake of a championship . .. Am I right? #Knicks
