[@Lifendz]

Heaviest jersey in the league. Gotta have heart to wear it. Lebron, KD, Kyrie….didnt want it. Scared of the pressure. But here we are with a second round pick and a bunch of “role players” headed to the EC Semis after beating the MVP.

[@bigknickenergy]

Kyrie refused to play for the Knicks and Brunson welcomed the challenge. Never want to imagine Kyrie as a Knick

[@PGO_Gaming]

All the stars did. That is why, even though I hate Julius Randle, I respect the fact that he came here when no one else would. It is because he came here, that Brunson came to the Knicks and I will be forever grateful to Julius for that.

[@remymorgan9630]

This. 😊😊

[@davidtuttle7556]

If Julius was playing rn, the Knicks could have legitimately won it all with this squad.

[@PGO_Gaming]

@@davidtuttle7556 And that is why I hate him. He screwed us with poor play in 2021. He struggled in the playoffs last year, albeit through injury. And he gets a severe injury in a year where we have a really good chance to go to the Finals. Meaning, he is never there when you truly need him.

[@will2358]

@@PGO_GamingJulius randle didn’t chose to be a Knick he was traded for salary space and thibs turned him into a monster

[@lp9709]

Lol, people say Brunson lacks athleticism, HOW? He is just a smaller guard who gets it in! It does not matter if you are 6'5" or 7'! My man gets it IN!

[@Zinger3030]

The Pacers talent is great. What is he talking about. They only struggled against below .500 teams because they are young and struggled to maintain poise in lower pressure situations.

[@nelsonperez5289]

The Pacers are underated and cause matchup issues. Knicks cannot overlook them.

[@Uhuru_Askari]

Exactly what I was thinking. Hali, Pascal, and Turner are all top-10 in their respective positions and they have a top-5 bench in the league and one of the best backup PG's in the league in T.J. McConnell and Nemhard is really stepping up guarding the teams best guard every night. This is gonna be a great series but I think Indiana is gonna take it fairly easily. Brunson is a great player but Indiana is gonna overwhelm the Knicks I think.

[@SullyAfgarshe]

Dan…Brunson is automatic offense, he has mastered how to play with the ball at his size, he’s limited athletically but his game is predicated on exploiting angles, he’s shifty, he can decelerate with the best of them, and he can finish

[@TanisHalf-Elven]

Good thing he can't play defense, Pacers going to run the tires off him

[@spitgiezer]

He shot 13-27 in game 6, he missed 14 shots, not sure of that qualifies as automatic

[@ocsorrells]

Yo Fellas Brunson is in New York making Freaking history. ¡Historyyyyyyy!

[@kk-sr1wl]

Brunson loves being the underdog. He gonna get that big contract soon

[@gothamlob5706]

Don’t think anyone in league can carry his team without his other all star player better than Brunson has…

[@trenton9623]

I'm tired of these Media people saying the Knicks aren't talented, that's a bunch of BS! Brunson Talented, OG Talented, Devo Talented , Hart Talented, Hartenstein Talented, Off the Bench, Duce Talented, Robinson Talented. Stop Flucking Down playing the Knicks. You getting mixed up in thinking Athleticism means talent, it does not. Talent in basketball is, scoring off the dribble, scoring off the ball, creating shots, rebounding, playing Elite Defense and High Basketball IQ, The Knicks excel in all the Above, The knicks are very talented, not the most athletic but one of the most talented. DON'T GET IT TWISTED!!

[@TanisHalf-Elven]

It's not downplaying. They've got 1 great scorer in Brunson and Hart and Anunoby are good wing defenders and scorers, but everyone else grades lower than their Pacers counterparts.

[@trenton9623]

@@TanisHalf-Elven Not in the Playoffs regular season don't mean anything, in the Playoffs you need Dogs and Physicality along with scoring, and in my opinion I don't think the Pacers can hang with Knicks when it comes to playoff basketball, the Knicks are built for Playoff basketball. The Knicks are 24-3 with OG and there's a major reason for that.

[@ramontorres2948]

@@TanisHalf-Elvenhe is downplaying. Og is the best defender in the league, hart is the best rebounder at his size in the league. Dante is top 3 in the league in volume 3 point shooting. I mean what do people consider talent? Just scoring?

[@bluechox]

This the problem with media.. their hate towards ny makes whatever they say biased and too opinionated as this guy just said… after all that they just don’t see Brunson as that guy

[@davidtuttle7556]

Stephen A. and Greenie do. Walton does.

[@Uhuru_Askari]

What hate? I see the bias in NY's favor...

[@byrnenoel6317]

This may be a long-shot when I think of the New York Knicks... the fact that they don't have a 2nd best player can actually be a positive. I think of a team the Knicks played in the 1994 NBA Finals-- the Houston Rockets. The Rockets did not have a second best player because any player on the team on any given night could be the second best player. That's how I feel about the New York Knicks. And that keeps the opposition guessing.

[@lucasmartinez5703]

I think Julius is clearly their second best player, but I get what you mean.

[@dandandkl9048]

Stop making excuses! Knicks lost Randle and Bogie for the year, and Mitch, OG and Jalen got significant stretches. Doc not good at putting a culture, and caters to star players.

[@ShayBlackstone]

Loved Dan in Grown Ups

[@citizenx3801]

Knicks fan here. I come in peace. ✌🏾 Not trying to spread rumors or incite a another riot in the city of brotherly love but I heard Maxi wants to back up Brunson on the Knicks....discuss.

[@JamesJohnson-lu5kk]

They don't watch the games. they don't know nothing about the Knicks

[@TanisHalf-Elven]

Just like Knicks fans haven't seen Pacers play

[@RyanMerch]

I want the knicks go win. Its just this 7 man rotation due to injury is going to be tough

[@TanisHalf-Elven]

Especially since Indy likes to run and NY starters play heavy minutes every game

[@JesseBond-kz3no]

I like the Pacers in this series if the Knicks slow the pace an play defense like they really can they can win but I don't think they can maintain it go Pacers 💯

[@raffiboy9426]

Funny how he hated on Brun.. when he came to NY and now full turn around ! Lol

[@davidjamal378]

Sometimes you got to show a mf!

[@raffiboy9426]

@@davidjamal378 lmaooo you already know !

[@tod3msn]

Jalen Brunson has 2 fellow Villanova players with him which adds to his confidence because all 3 know their roles.

[@dandandkl9048]

Not their roles but know how to play together to win. They support each other at different point in games.

[@davidjamal378]

​@@dandandkl9048Definition of "role": A duty, function or part you play in a particular process! WYM it's not a "role"?? Knowing how to play together is 100% knowing your role...

[@arrellehnisrael8229]

People cant say enough about Embiid playing with one leg. I have never heard Patrick Ewing get as much praise for LOSING a playoff series on TWO BAD KNEES... basically, NO LEGS!

[@JamesEarlBonez]

Glen "It aint my fault" Slithers

[@Raj-fu5hz]

Julius Randle is #2 but hurt

[@doublecell966]

So OG Anunoby is not talented? Miles Mcbride is not talented?

[@boonewilliams9200]

Pacers In 5

[@deenyce2216]

All of this because Brunson is not tall! Lol

[@gnvtwhp1218]

Current Pacers coach hated jalen Brunson when Brunson was playing for the mavs. Gonna be interesting.

[@23trahan23]

Go thru the roster head to toe and tell me why this ain't a talented team. TF are you talking about Dan

[@BC-rg2mf]

Raptors players

[@bilzdomino6130]

Gunpoint to take the job? GTFOH

The Knicks aren’t a talented team? Horrible take.

[@dantelabella9753]

Knicks fans are delusional.

[@julianc6863]

Pacers will go through NY like Butter. NY isnt playing a loser vibe team anymore like Sixers. Pacers actually have a better HC and Deep team

[@Lephty17]

🤣 Like butter? You're ridiculous.
