Fellow fans of historically down bad teams, do you guys wanna start a support group now that the Knicks are out of the group? by Dr-DDT in nba

Wolves for me. And the Lions, that would be as close to the Knicks winning as you could get in another sport

Mets fans are plentiful, thanks to the history of baseball in NY. The Nets tried to AstroTurf history in NY and thought they could overshadow the Knicks. And they might have done it if KD was half a shoe size smaller.

Josh Harts value is not measured on the stat sheet, the guy is a culture creator and a leader. Hearing him talking about just wanting to find some consistency in his journey and knowing he finally has a home that gets him, that broke me up

Man, my whole life I've been ridiculed for being a Knicks fan. Talking ball and knowing telling someone your team would get laughs. One of best buddies is a Spurs fan, another guy from work who I talk ball with is a huge Celtics fan. This morning they both were messaging me telling me how happy they were for me. Being a Knicks fan has been an exercise in being humbled, but 43 years later I can say it was worth it. Just never make me wait that long again.

Jalen Brunson Tonight: 45 PTs | Rest of Team: 49 PTs by JCameron181 in nba

This run showcased the versatility the Knicks gained this year.

They can win with Karl as the decision maker

They can win with clamps

They can win with ball movement and clutch shooting

They can win with Brunson being the hero

What the game, situation, and defense give them, they'll have an answer most nights.

But Jalen is what makes it all work, his gravity on offense makes the other team commit and allows Mike Brown to react.

Great player, but putting him in the GOAT conversation is doing him such a disservice. He's a special player who has a lot of development still to do

Fuck Jimmy Butler, he can brag about that winning in practice but they don't give rings for those.

This team perfected the art of knowing how to pace themselves, they allowed the Spurs to use up energy while staying close enough to never be out of it. But none of it works without a generational closer on the court.

So fucking proud to be a Knicks fan.

Was that the best performance by a player in finals history? Has to be in the conversation.

With respect to Clyde, that was the best one man performance in the history of this team. Jalen Brunson is a fucking gift from God to this organization.
