@TheDunkCentral@awfulannouncing These people running sports media is why perennial loser Donavan Mitchells led Cavs have better championship odds. Brunson disrespect needs to be studied.
Colin Cowherd says Jalen Brunson isn’t a great player and needs to be a 2nd or 3rd option on a championship team.
"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."

Stephen A Smith goes after Josh Hart again 👀
“Message to Josh Hart, do I need to shut the hell up now? You haven’t won a game since you clapped back at me. He’s on a losing streak since he’s talked smack to me.”

@evilisnotreal@BigKnickEnergy_ Brunson obviously deserves blame as I mentioned above, but considering under thibs last year they both had extremely successful offensive seasons I think brown deserves more blame
@midrangejumpr2@Josue94973537@BigKnickEnergy_ 100% when they get him a few early points down low it changes the game for us. He has cleaned up his defense and complaining so there is no reason for this anymore.
@jacobhecht14@Josue94973537@BigKnickEnergy_ I kind of get what you’re saying as far as Brown explicitly telling his team to get KAT involved. But he’s open alot when I watch Knicks games and just doesn’t get the ball enough from his teammates. I get his frustration.
@midrangejumpr2@Josue94973537@BigKnickEnergy_ Agree that there are obviously cases that are completely on Brunson. Just feel as an overall the way the offense is structured it doesn’t include Kat. Which is more on the coach than on JB. Especially considering how they both were so much better together last year.
@jacobhecht14@Josue94973537@BigKnickEnergy_ Nah, Brunson is supposed to be a point guard and get arguably your best all-around player involved. He’d rather forced contested shots against really good defenders, or just straight up flop for a bailout foul call.
@JLEdwardsIII The Knicks are going to finish in the same seed with an almost identical record. This year though everyone is entering the playoffs looking significantly less prepared and somehow more tired then under thibs. Do with that what you want.
Mike Brown: “obviously, we got down big to start the game. I hate to sound like a broken record, but you do that against a good team and it’s hard to come back.”
@Josue94973537@BigKnickEnergy_ The game plan being mostly revolved around Brunson under thibs and brown is the reason they have never developed an efficient 2 man game.
Harden hit a 3, KAT made a great read to Bridges who hit only backboard on a reverse layup and then Mobley got an offensive rebound for a bucket.
Knicks back down 19 with 7:33 left.
I don't think Amen Thompson is doing anything special on Jalen Brunson. Brunson just looks off tonight—missing shots he normally hits, rather than Thompson completely shutting him down.
