Nick Wright 2:21
Welcome to the best of the week for What's Right with Nick Wright. The best takes and moments from this week on the show. Enjoy!
So you were actually in attendance in San Antonio to see the Knicks close out the series and win the finals. Tell us about that experience.
Nick Wright 2:38
Well, listen, I want to get into the game quickly, but this is what I will say. The TV undersold what a percentage of the crowd was Knicks fans. And the reason I know that is because after the game, Knicks fans obviously stayed to watch the trophy presentation. And I never take pictures or video when I'm at events. I try to just be in the moment. But I did, for documentation purposes, take a panoramic video of the full stadium 20 minutes after the game ended during the trophy presentation. And I'm here to tell you... 65% of the stadium was still full. So even if we think, you know, 10% of that was Spurs fans that were like, hey, it's history. Let me stick around and watch it. More than half of the crowd, I would have estimated about 60% of the crowd was Knicks fans.
Nick Wright 3:37
And it made it a very unique environment where both fan bases were connected. Just super loud, and you could also feel when the Spurs had a lead in the fourth quarter, but it was dwindling, that even though they were the team leading, the Knicks fans were the team that was confident, and the Spurs fans were the ones that were getting nervous. We will get more to the Spurs later in the show, but we must start, Demanze, with the champions. Let's get to Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks.
Yeah, so we'll get to the Knicks as a whole later, but Jalen Brunson, man, he was responsible for just under half of their points in this closeout game. He also secured his Finals MVP. How impressed were you with the small guard and his achievements in these Finals?
Nick Wright 4:27
I don't know how you could be possibly more impressed, and I don't know how you could walk away from this series...
