That's part of the Pro NY bias media coverage of the series. Its been happening all series. Even on TV. @GetUpESPN @FirstTake on @ESPNNBA @espn plus the announcers and commentaries. The Pro NY media was waving NY flags verbally. #BiasNYMedia

p.s. @KendrickPerkins is the biggest idiot on all of these shows. On @SportsCenter and he lists Brunson as top 5 of all time..... The utter stupidity in this statement is astounding.

Talk your shit now @espn @FirstTake @FTFonFS1 @PTI

You can’t win multiple titles with Brunson as your #1.

🏆 THE NEW YORK KNICKS ARE NBA CHAMPIONS. The most important thing about this title isn't the trophy but what it represents. For years, the Knicks were basketball's biggest punchline. Today, they're basketball's biggest success story🧵 1️⃣ Leon Rose rebuilt this franchise the hard way. -No shortcuts. -No tanking for half a decade. -No superteam shortcuts. Just smart drafting, player development, trades, and culture building. 2️⃣ Jalen Brunson changed everything. The signing that many questioned became the move that transformed the franchise. He gave the Knicks: ✅ Leadership ✅ Shot creation ✅ Toughness ✅ Belief Every championship team needs an identity. Brunson became New York's. 3️⃣ Defense won the title. The Knicks aren't built around highlight basketball. They're built around physicality. Every possession feels like work against them. That's championship DNA. 4️⃣ The OG Anunoby effect. Elite wings win championships. OG gave New York the ability to switch, defend stars, and survive playoff basketball. Every contender needs a player like him. 5️⃣ Karl-Anthony Towns completed the puzzle. -Spacing. -Scoring. -Rebounding. A unique offensive weapon that opened the floor for everyone else. The risk paid off. 6️⃣ Mike Brown deserves his flowers. For years people said his methods felt outdated across the different poorly run franchises. Now he's an NBA Champion. Nobody got this group to compete harder. Nobody got more buy-in. 7️⃣ The biggest lesson? Patience still works. The Knicks didn't chase every shiny object. They built something sustainable and eventually the championship followed. 🏆 New York is back. #NBAFinals #NBA #Knicks #NewYorkKnicks #NBATwitter #JalenBrunson #KarlAnthonyTowns #MikalBridges #NBAFinals @farashade1 @NBA @The_Khalifaa @_JasonLT @stephenasmith @Chris_Broussard @ESPNNBA @getnickwright @FTFonFS1 @FirstTake @TheHerd @Edwyeen @Okkeeeyy @TheBoluSport @akanbijamesoluz @dayveedtalks

🌎 #WC2026 Weekend Recap Thread (So Far) The first proper World Cup weekend has delivered tactical surprises, statement performances and a few early warning signs. 🧵 Best moments, worst performances & 1 stat nobody is talking about yet... 1️⃣ Best Moment: South Korea's statement win 🇰🇷 Coming from behind to beat Czechia 2-1 wasn't just a result. It was a declaration. Their pressing intensity, vertical transitions and bravery in possession made them look like one of the tournament's most organised sides. Dark horses? Absolutely. 2️⃣ Best Team Performance: USA 🇺🇸 A 4-1 win over Paraguay and complete control for long stretches. The Americans combined athleticism with tactical structure and looked far more mature than previous tournament editions. A performance that turned heads. 3️⃣ Best Individual Display: Ayyoub Bouaddi 🇲🇦 Against Brazil, the teenager looked completely unfazed. He: -Controlled tempo. -Escaped pressure. -Progressed play consistently. Many fans discovered him this weekend. Scouts already knew. 4️⃣ Worst Performance: Paraguay 🇵🇾 They were: -Outrun. -Outplayed. -Outthought. The 4-1 scoreline against the USA could have been even worse. Their midfield struggled to cope with the pace and intensity of the game. 5️⃣ Biggest Disappointment: Brazil's attack 🇧🇷 A 1-1 draw with Morocco isn't a disaster. The concern is how predictable Brazil looked for long periods. They have lots of talent and not enough collective solutions. Questions remain. 6️⃣ Most Underrated Result: Scotland 1-0 Haiti 🏴 They were: -Not glamorous. -Not viral. But tournament football is about accumulating points. Scotland defended their box brilliantly and now have a platform to qualify. 7️⃣ The Stat Nobody Is Talking About Yet 👀 After the opening round of group games: Only ONE team has scored more than two goals in a match. 🇺🇸 USA 4-1 Paraguay. Everyone expected attacking fireworks. Instead, we're seeing a tournament dominated by compact blocks, structured pressing and defensive organisation. The gap between nations has never looked smaller. 8️⃣ Early Verdict -Best team: 🇺🇸 USA -Best story: 🇰🇷 South Korea -Best young player: 🇲🇦 Bouaddi -Most concerning giant: 🇧🇷 Brazil And we're only getting started. 🔥 Which team has impressed you most so far? #WorldCup2026 #FIFAWorldCup #USMNT #Brazil #Morocco #SouthKorea #Scotland #FootballTwitter #WorldCupThread #WC2026 @PremLeaguePanel @FIFAcom @premierleague @LaLiga @SerieA @Ligue1 @Bundesliga_DE @FIFAWorldCup @ESPNFC @SkySportsPL @BBCSport @FOXSports @segunn_ @JamesHorncastle @minakimes @Edwyeen @ZachLowy @TheOddSolace @Okkeeeyy @akanbijamesoluz @chaplinez70 @olaolubanky292 @TheBoluSport @dayveedtalks @kanyewest @JamesOlley @MarkOgden_ @LaurensJulien @ochocinco @OlisaOsega @SirLeoBDasilva @Coach_Temisan @Coachayere @sidlowe @Adikastakes @Sabi_gyal @stephenasmith @Chris_Broussard @TheHerd @getnickwright @FTFonFS1 @FirstTake @SportsCenter @BleacherReport @The_Khalifaa @farashade1 @EBL2017 @nonewthing @WelBeast @cagiago_

Yes it did, maybe you just too slow

I will always look at how long it takes then to get there
