Brunson is now treated like Royalty after winning a Championship for the New York Knicks. The city really needed it 🗽
"There is a tension, peculiar to basketball, between the interests of the team and the interests of the individual. The game continually tempts the people who play it to do things that are not in the interest of the group. On the baseball field, it would be hard for a player to sacrifice his team’s interest for his own. Baseball is an individual sport masquerading as a team one: by doing what’s best for himself, the player nearly always also does what is best for his team.
“There is no way to selfishly get across home plate,” as Morey puts it. “If instead of there being a lineup, I could muscle my way to the plate and hit every single time and damage the efficiency of the team — that would be the analogy. Manny Ramirez can’t take at-bats away from David Ortiz. We had a point guard in Boston who refused to pass the ball to a certain guy.” In football, the coach has so much control over who gets the ball that selfishness winds up being self-defeating.
It is in basketball where the problems are most likely to be in the game — where the player, in his play, faces choices between maximizing his own perceived self-interest and winning. The choices are sufficiently complex that there is a fair chance he doesn’t fully grasp that he is making them." "

Per @bball_ref,
Tyler Nickel is the first player in SEC history to shoot at least 40% from 3PT range (minimum six 3PTA per game) and 80% from the FT line in both his junior and senior seasons.
Kid can shoot.
