Mike brown talks to Jalen Brunson and Josh hart about the highs and lows he had coaching th New York Knicks this season . He says the low was when they were struggling with the Josh benching and the Karl Anthony towns fit and the media scrutiny and the high was the cup win
Leon just finally gave us the map ๐บ๏ธ
1) Every personnel decision was viewed through the context and lens of โcan this person do this in NYCโ
2) I believe i heard 5 โfitโs in this 2 minute clip. Everything was about chemistry and fit.
3) Did the โtrial and errorโ thing and learned from the Indy series that they needed to upgrade on handling opposing teams ball pressure (this was key for us vs san antonio)
If I owe anyone an apology its Leon. I was on his head and at the time i dont regret it bc it was bleak. But He ultimately emptied the clip and took a HUGE risk that ultimately paid off. A risk I would have been unwilling to make. He took MASSIVE risk. Firing a head coach who led you to the first ecf in 25 years and trading every tradeable pick for Mikal.
Hes the architect of all this. He was right, i was wrong and his risk paid off. salute to him ๐ซก
This Knicks championship is bigger than basketball. Anyone who has lived in the city knows how resilient and hard working the people are. No matter the obstacles..the people of NYC DO NOT QUIT!
I LOVE NYC. I LOVE NEW YORKERS.
This really is for all of us ๐ ๐ต
