The Knicks should teach every team from high school to college how important work ethic and chemistry are! Besides having the best player in the NBA this year, they had an attitude of never relenting, and never giving up. Amazing run. Champions we can all look up to!

In New York, pressure don't break you... it crowns you. #knicks 🏀👑 Mr.october ft. @gherbo streaming on all platforms now #mroctober #msg

Charles Barkley: "When he signed with New York...we knew he was gonna be a good player. But come on man. None of us saw this" Rick Brunson: "Not even me. I thought he'd be a good player" Jalen: "I'd be lying to you guys saying I saw this as well but what he's instilled in me as a kid you never know what's gonna happen if you just continue to work hard...when you focus on just winning, you're not focusing on yourself, you're not focusing on the individual accolades that you can get. He kind of instilled that in me. I'm programmed to say that because I actually believe those things. I believe it's all about the team, it's all about our success. If we win, everyone eats. That's how I think of it. But it's how my mom and him raised me"

Minnesota traded Towns cause he was "washed"... Dallas refused to pay Brunson cause "he's not that good"... Nets traded Bridges cause he "has no future"... Raptors got rid of OG to "save on the cap" Blazers got rid of Josh Hart cause he's "too emotional"... Knicks just took the Biggest Rejects in the league and won a title.

Shaquille O'Neal reveals he built his legendary mindset by stealing from Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Muhammad Ali "I was a thief. Let me explain. You see somebody that's doing better than you, and you would like to aspire to do them, steal what they're doing." "So for me, I stole Michael Jordan. I stole Magic Johnson. I stole Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. I stole Muhammad Ali. And I put it inside my brain, and I created me, Shaquille O'Neal."

Mike Brown was fired four times — twice by the same team. He could have walked away bitter. Instead, he kept learning, kept showing up, and kept believing his story was not finished. Now, he’s a champion. Sometimes rejection is not the end of the road. It is preparation for the right opportunity. Your setback may simply be setting the stage for your comeback.

First thing I thought of when the Knicks won the championship? John Starks.

NY1’s Dean Meminger’s father, Dean “the Dream” Meminger, was a member of the 1973 NBA champion Knicks and was also a high school basketball star in New York City. Dean joined “Knicks Talk Live” to talk about his dad’s connections to that Knicks team, to New York City and to basketball.

“I'm gonna stop the argument too… No disrespect, I love my son… Patrick Ewing is the greatest Knick I've ever witnessed” - Rick Brunson (Jalen’s dad) Rick knows ball! Remastered HD footage of Patrick Ewing so you kids get educated ✌️

The celebrations have begun!!!

Kendrick Perkins on Jalen Brunson: "This man has become the greatest Knick of all time. He will never spend another dime on another meal, another drink. I don't know if he's even gonna have to pay his mortgage in the city of New York. This is Mr. New York. He is the new Derek Jeter of this generation. All time great run"

KAT: "I knew I had a tall task when I got traded here. How can I get the best out of JB, how can I get the best out of everyone in the organization? I knew I was the man for the job, I know people didn't believe in it and at the end of the day all you need is one person to believe in yourself and that was me. I believed in myself"

Mike Brown: "The buy in. It was a contract that I had everybody sign opening dinner night and I still have it framed. Everybody's signature from Mr. Dolan to Leon Rose, all the coaches, all the players, all the staff that was there that night signed and basically it was about committing to sacrifice, having a competitive spirit, being connected, believing in each other in the process while holding everybody accountable even myself...I told everybody that night if you're not gonna abide by this I'd have more respect for you to not sign it than to sign it and BS your way through tonight and BS your way through this and everybody bought in from day 1"

Go on and git her 💋 Never Really Mine Visualizer out now

The amazing Alicia Keys was closing out the Tribeca Film Festival last night as the Knicks won and did Empire State of Mind 🔥

Josh Hart: "Everybody wants to be the guy that scores the most, that puts the ball in the basket and that's not everybody's path. That wasn't my path and sometimes that's a tough pill to swallow but when you embrace that when you're a star in your role and you take pride in doing the little things that breeds winning basketball. For me as embraced as I was in this city wearing this jersey that sacrifice was easy. Some days it was tough don't get me wrong but you sacrifice for moments like this"

Steve Nash says Jalen Brunson stands out because of one trait above everything else: his will to win. “Last year he was the Clutch Player of the Year, and for me that starts with how badly he wants to win.” “Everybody talks about the shot-making, but what I love is how smart he is with his body.” “He plays off two feet, has incredible touch, and gets shots off at awkward timings defenders can’t predict.” “It’s not a floater, not a layup, not a runner. It’s just a unique shot on the move.” “As a defender, you can’t time it because you never know when he’s going to release it.” “He’s also elite at cutting defenders off and controlling space.” “He gets in front of you, stops the game, and forces the defense to react to him.” “Once he creates that pocket of space, he’s asking the defense: ‘Who’s going to come guard this?’” “If someone helps, he already knows where the next pass is.” “He’s great at turning small advantages into big ones and making the defense play on his terms.”
