Jalen Brunson discourse is only a thing right now because he deadass proved everyone wrong. Cade was supposed to pack him, he didn't. Maxey was supposed to pack him, he didn't. Spida was supposed to pack him, he didn't. Wemby was supposed to pack him, he didn't.
Jalen Brunson: NBA CHAMPION.
🗽 28.4 PPG in playoffs (led all players)
🗽 32.6 in NBA Finals (led all players)
🗽 45 PTS in clinching Game 5
🗽 Unanimous NBA Finals MVP
CAPTAIN CLUTCH gave New York a postseason run for the ages... and their first championship in 53 years!
Karl-Anthony Towns in 11 seasons:
🐈⬛ 6x All-Star
🐈⬛ 3x All-NBA Third Team
🐈⬛ 2016 Rookie of the Year
🐈⬛ NBA Cup Champion
🐈⬛ Career Averages of 23/11/3 on 52/40/84 splits
🐈⬛ NBA CHAMPION
If he retired today, would he be a Hall of Famer? 🤔
Ranking each Knicks finals win by amount of times I will regularly watch the highlights
1. Game 4
2. Game 5
3. Game 1
4. Game 2
Coming back from 29 points in the 2nd half still doesn’t feel real
“Nah see what I was sayin’ was that no small dude could win back-to-back championships in the NBA and score MORE than 45 points in a close-out game in the Finals… that’s clearly what I meant!!! I said what I said. If he proves me wrong, he proves me wrong.”
Becky, probably
Jalen Brunson scored 42.7% of Knicks points in 4th quarter in NBA Finals. That’s highest share for any player in Finals since Dirk Nowitzki had 43.7% for Mavs in 2011
Bro did all that dirty ass shit to Jalen in the series, showed them no love, no respect after the fact, said they were better the whole time, was an arrogant French prick the whole series, walked off without shaking anyone’s hands & ppl are surprised by this…
That man is right, FUCK WEMBY
Jalen Brunson: “A lot of great things happen, you know when we’re down one and you miss a wide open layup.” 😭
Josh Hart: “For me, I wanted to set up an epic last possession. We wouldn’t have that OG tip in without that missed layup.”

The New York Knicks went 16-3 in the postseason.
Their losses were by a combined 6 points.
Their wins were by a combined 289 points.
One of the great playoff runs you will ever see in any sport. Truly unbelievable, man.
40-year old Khalil Jamil Al-Masri. There’s a video circulating online that I don’t want to share that shows his gruesome headshot murder by an Israeli quadcopter as he sat in a cafe. Israel’s entire existence is predicated on eliminating him and hundreds of thousands like him.
What’s funny is that objectively coming into the series, the Knicks had plenty of ways to attack this matchup. Basketball-wise, picking the Knicks was always a RATIONAL take.
Picking against them off of random vibes was actually the irrational take.
