🔥CINEMA. The New York Knicks winning tonight was nothing short of an epic FATHER & SON story decades in the making for Jalen Brunson getting redemption for our NYK against The Spurs.
The Knicks defeated them on their home court to end the series 4-1
The Spurs defeated us 4-1 in that series 27 years ago at with Rick Brunson as a Knick at MSG.
Commentators would relentlessly tell everyone that Jalen was “TOO SMALL” to win against the top tiers.
Yet here he stands as MVP with the rest of one of the greatest relentless Knick teams ever assembled against their star player being the opposite of TOO SMALL… they now CHAMPIONS.
Jalen shows you how important humility… work ethic & family who believe in you are for an individual.
Brunson is everything you want to see in an athlete as an example for youth and the reason he is so successful is not just talent but COMPOSURE.
He is one of the most stress resilient emotionally controlled athletes I have ever seen as a life long New York sports fan.
He not only got his fathers 1999 team redemption but ALL of us New York Knicks fans. And he and that team earned EVERY win in the face of adversity.
We just watched a historic team we will remember for generations. Thank you @jalenbrunson1 & @nyknicks
Extremely happy and lucky to have witnessed the Knicks win as a life long fan but this is not how you celebrate and im willing to bet most of these people aren't even real fans...
🚨 BREAKING: Rioters have begun setting the school buses ON FIRE in Times Square during the Knicks riots
Police do not have NEARLY ENOUGH SUPPORT
Mamdani and Hochul have ABSOLUTELY FAILED NYPD and law abiding New Yorkers
"I've been doubted so many times, traded, had so much instability - seven, eight different head coaches. I found a home in New York. They embraced me for the person that I am, the player that I am."
- Josh Hart
All the real life long Knicks fans have this same feeling, such an incredible team and run....I've never loved a team as much as I love this Knicks squad!!!!

Magic Johnson on how special this Knicks team is:
Magic: “I don’t wanna hear no talk about Giannis, or no other player coming to this team. This is a great team. I’ve watched a lot of basketball. The way these guys love each other. Play for each other. Pull for one another. You’re not gonna see this anywhere else. The, grit, the toughness that’s how they beat you. Together.”
Stephen A: “You’re telling me, this team, as presently constructed, you wouldn’t change—”
Magic: “Nope.”
Stephen A: “Even if they don’t win the Finals, no changes?”
Magic: “You keep em together and make small changes. This team knows how to play so well with each other. And off of Brunson. Everybody is comfortable in their role. KAT could start for another team tomorrow. OG can go to another team and be a star. But he’s good to play his role. Bridges too. And Hart, no 2 guard rebounds like Josh Hart. So you’ve got the pieces, and they’re all happy.”
Stephen A: “But—”
Magic: “Now, if you trade for Giannis, how many dudes you gotta give up just to get him? It’s a different team now. The whole team changes.”
Stephen A: “That’s true.”
Magic: “This team. I love this team. I love the Knicks. They play basketball right. Don’t change.”
