There weren't any specific Brunson did this plays, but you will think of 45 in a closeout game to win him the championship for the first time in over 50 years.

Yeah, specifically that play on Wemby was awesome.

I will think of him driving nonstop.

As this game got close again, as it has been all series,

You know, he hit threes, yes, and obviously got a lot of free throws.

But there are so many buckets from Brunson in the second half where he just drove to the rim on anybody that was on him, be it Wemby, be it Castle.

And he was always getting, like, especially a Spurs big that was like...

caught between, am I staying with the guy in the corner or not?

And he would get him with the pass fake every time.

He just has incredible footwork and timing.

So yeah, he just kept attacking.

And the play, like the big one here in game five was that, probably that little 12-foot floater, right, that Brunson hit to put them up.

90 to 88, and then we got into, obviously, the free throw game of it all, where the Knicks kept leaving the door open as they kept splitting a pair, but then Spurs, unfortunately, not capitalizing.

I guess Harper at the end missing too, but...

I mean, with all due respect to Patrick Ewing, and I even think Willis Reed, I think it's pretty obvious that Jalen Brunson is at least the second best Knick of all time now.

I think it's Clyde Frazier, then I think it's him.

And if you want to debate that, fair, but he's also, there's no debating he's one of the best free agent signings in NBA history with what he's meant to this franchise.

They were garbage for 20 plus years.

He comes, they start winning because he's a winner.

That's all he does.
