@MadDogUnleashed doesn't believe Jalen Brunson can be the best player on a championship team 👀
Knicks fans trolling Hawks fans like history doesn’t exist... The numbers say Atlanta’s been more relevant than New York for years. 👀🏀

"When I think and watch what's happening with these Knicks fans, I give them credit for passing Mets fans as the most unserious fanbase in all of sports ... Your organization has been a disaster for three decades. Welcome back to relevant basketball." - @RealMattlanta@kingcfb
In his final mock for 2026, @MelKiperESPN predicts the first 2 rounds based on team needs, evaluations and what he's hearing in conversations with execs, coaches and scouts around the NFL.
For the Vikings:
- Round 1: Dillon Thieneman
- Round 2: Mike Washington Jr.
Yay or nay?

Leading divorce lawyer James Sexton @nycdivorcelaw explains how romantic relationships often operate like an attention economy, where consistent emotional investment and communication, not last-minute gestures, shape intimacy and responsiveness over time.
Jeff Teague says the Hawks are a scary matchup for the Knicks:
“Because we got nothing to lose, we having fun just going to be lit in Atlanta, sh*t we might have magic city night. They really playing with house money right now we made the playoffs wasn’t even thinking that way once we let Trae go, you know what I mean? This is a scary team because they just play free, they got nothing to lose. We still building for the future, we thinking about are pick from New Orleans, you know what I mean? We just like damn we going to just keep adding pieces to get better probably didn’t think we would be a contender in two years. But to right now where we at they playing free and that’s a scary team to play when you got nothing to lose.”

UPDATE: The Knicks owned the Wizards 1st this season (top-8 protected), but it did not convey.
Because it didn’t convey, the Knicks now own Washington’s 2026 and 2027 2nd-Round Picks.
The 2026 pick is locked in as the top pic of the second round.
The New York Rangers are locked into a Top 6 pick, and might be locked into a Top 5 pick by Thursday morning
There will be a lot of discourse on whether they should trade the pick between now, to the lottery, and to the draft
The answer will be NO today, on lottery day and on Draft day
Unless your trading down for a haul of assets/additional picks or getting a u23 super star like Michkov or Smith(unrealistic)
The smartest thing Rangers can do is pick BPA, pick BPA in mid 20s, and than stink again and get another Top 5 pick while also trading Tro/Schneider for additional assets between now and end of next season
At least you’ll start to see a core of young players forming by Fall 2027

"Jalen Brunson's very good, he's not great…he's not that guy…Jalen Brunson has to be a number two. On a great team, a three. But I think New York is convinced he's one of the best Knicks of all-time." – Colin Cowherd
"Jalen Brunson can't be your best player... The NBA players are voting and they don't think Jalen Brunson stacks up."
@colincowherd reacts to an NBA player survey that says the Knicks are not a championship threat
Lou Williams on Knicks vs. Hawks in the 1st round:
"This is the absolute worse case scenario for the New York Knicks."
