"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
Mitchell Robinson says winning the NBA Finals is "a dream come true"
"I've been here when we have won 17 games, when we won 60 games, and to finally be able to get it done in 2026 with the journey that I've been on and the team... it's amazing"
An NBA championship edition of The Putback from San Antonio with my friend @ChelseaSherrod where we hit on the sights and sounds of the Knicks’ series-clinching win, the crucial pre-playoff meetings between Mike Brown & the Knick starters and more: x.com/i/broadcasts/1dKrPPerq…
“You talking about —- them picks?” Mikal Bridges said. “… Yeah, —- ‘em.” Bridges shares insight on how his mindset aligns with his critics after a 14-point, 4 assist performance in Game 5:
NYK playoff run began with Mike Brown meeting with Knick starters to clear the air, James Dolan asking for 10 weeks of sacrifice (and no fornication) and ended tonight in San Antonio. Story on 2026 Knicks cementing themselves as a forever team in New York: sny.tv/articles/knicks-win-2…
Asked Mikal Bridges about this after the game; I used the word ‘expletive’ in my question. “You mean f—- them picks?” he said. Went on to give a great answer, which included an affirmative “F—- them picks”. Will post the video when it’s available.
Mike Brown spends time in his press conference campaigning for associate head coach Chris Jent. “He will help your team at the highest level.” Knicks gravitated toward that selflessness in Brown’s first year here. Some similarities between Knicks/Brown & Yankees/1996 Joe Torre
NYK owner James Dolan interrupts Josh Hart’s press conference to deliver a message to New Yorkers. “Please be safe tonight; don’t get hurt, don’t hurt anybody.. we’ll have a parade in New York on Thursday … be safe (tonight).”
Josh Hart said Knicks players don’t often talk about the weight of the Knicks jersey given the pressure/expectations in New York. “Right now, this is the lightest it’s ever felt,” he said
“Eight years!” Mitchell Robson yelled as he walked through the corridor and headed to the locker room. Robinson had a massive offensive rebound to help Knicks down stretch of Game 5
Behind 45 points from Jalen Brunson, Knicks win in San Antonio to clinch franchise's first NBA title in 53 years. Masterpiece from the NYK captain, who had 15 in fourth to help NYK rebound from 7-pt deficit. Massive offensive rebound from Mitchell Robinson late helped seal game
Through 17 quarters, Knicks have outscored San Antonio by one point in aggregate. Tonight, Knicks not named Jalen Brunson are 14-for-49 from the floor. Knick bench has just four points. Dylan Harper Jr has 21 pts on 8-for-13 shooting off Spurs bench
Rough start for Karl-Anthony Towns in Game 5. Picked up his third foul late in second quarter. Has four turnovers of Knicks' seven turnovers. New York shooting 4-for-22 on twos. Towns, Josh Hart and OG Anunoby are a combined 1-for-9 on twos. Knicks down 8 with 2:34 to go in half.
