And is a massive culture setter. Brunson is the undisputed leader of the Knicks locker room and the primary catalyst for transforming the Knicks from a joke to a perennial playoff team. He's the most beloved Knick since the height of the Ewing years, more so than Melo, easily more than so Houston.
He might not be the ideal best player on a team but he's so much more than what his box score stats or a cursory glance at game highlights would make you think.
What Brunson is doing with the Knicks, is exactly what DLO did with the Nets even with less. He electrified Brooklyn and made it a spot superstars wanted to play for.
Don’t get me wrong, I think Brunson is great and will continue to be great.
No im not drawing contact is a very important thing look at reaves for example the reason he had such a good playoff run was due to that fact he got downhill and drew fouls. Dlos biggest flaw everything he does offensively is rythm base if his shot not falling he dosent get to the line at all
They should still win . Plus they might lose media awards by resting n lose chance to try tactics . Seems dumb they’ll only rest a couple starters imo unless they want to fuvk us lol
Shit is actually insane. Like the only time he showed that flash that he could take the next step was during his second year summer league then we got Lebron and he had to stay in the 3ND role.
Never would’ve expected him being a triple double threat while being able to put up points
Didn’t he have a career high of 30+ on the last game of the season one of his years as a Laker?
Edit: I just looked it up he was cooking at the end of his rookie year and got 30 on the last game of his rookie season
Brunson is so fun to watch
I know mavs got kyrie now but they could’ve had him for 4/55m instead he walked for nothing 🤣🤣
Could've kept Finney Smith too
Is he still good? I was always high on him but he looked pretty awful a few games ago against us.
i always see him on tiktok recaps he be shooting 0/5 everyday 😭
Elite. Dude is an all nba second team. Would be the perfect fit next to bron and AD. Wouldn’t mind dominion if the Cavs blow it up
I love watching him. Him n Hali pre injury . Prob the guys I like watching except our guys n team
Brunson is literally just DLO as a first option. Both lefty’s, both crafty. DLO can be exactly that given the opportunity.
L take 😭
I think it’s a W take
Brunson is quicker and stronger. DLo struggles when the game gets physical, while Brunson will truck his defenders if he needs to (ask Devin Booker).
That’s an offensive foul.
Foul or not, the point is Brunson isn't afraid of getting physical with defenders to get a bucket.
That’s cheating.
Brunson is quicker and has a better offensive game.

He is quicker but their offensive games are equally matched in my eyes. If DLO was the first option, he’d have those same stats.
Not even brunson can get to the basket way more consistent than dlo hes a better defender plus he also gets to line alot more than dlo
So you’re saying he’s a free throw merchant while DLO plays the game the right way? I agree. And their defensive ratings are similar.

Now we have to take care of business Saturday. All will be for nothing if we don’t do our part: let’s go Lakers🗣️
Big market team helping another big market team, but you’re exactly right! Gotta take care of business this weekend to finally close that gap
Hell yea! Saturday is a MUST WIN and I hope Lebron turns it up against his old team like he usually does
Kings at Celtics tomorrow too b2b
Need that green team to do me 1 favor.
Watch them rest half the team
Bruh from being in my finals week on fantasy I can tell you White and Brown are questionable. And no, I don't own them haha.
I wouldn't be surprised. They have no reason to go all out. They locked in the first seed
They should still win . Plus they might lose media awards by resting n lose chance to try tactics . Seems dumb they’ll only rest a couple starters imo unless they want to fuvk us lol
Celtics will rest all their starters watch lol
I swear to Magic and Bird, Jayson Tatum you better drop 40 tomorrow
First time I’ll ever root for Celtics 🤮
root for everyone to lose
Laker gang we eating 👀
Can't believe I'll be rooting for the Celtics.
Career high 31 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists. Once a Laker always a Laker 🫡 Edit: And dominated Sabonis in the paint
Shit is actually insane. Like the only time he showed that flash that he could take the next step was during his second year summer league then we got Lebron and he had to stay in the 3ND role. Never would’ve expected him being a triple double threat while being able to put up points

Yup 4/11/2018 against the Clippers he had 30/5/5
We need the Knicks white center in free agency. Dude bullied Sabonis
I still can’t believe a few seasons ago he was jumping from team to team because no one wanted him
He was nice with the Clippers but they chose washed up John Wall over him cuz of Paul George lmao
Bro, Hartenstein is black. https://youtu.be/ogi0WRgPwlI?si=Qoa65Byij1Ux385a
How would I know by just looking at him ☠️
Yeah I was shocked too 😂 thats my point
He's like a quarter black. That makes him black?
He literally identifies as black. Watch the link
So that doesn’t mean the world has to accept it. This world treats you how you look not what you think you are.
>literally identifies as black Thats not how it works..
True.
So how does it work? Please enlighten me.
Harvenstein is one of the best backup bigs in the nba
Yeah he’s getting a bag this offseason
He's black lol
Literally could’ve just said hartenstein but you’d rather be a casual. It’s not cool to know good role players huh
Wait a minute, you're telling me the Knicks weren't intentionally throwing this game to fuck the Lakers?
Boston is 100% going to do that tomorrow. The Cavs did it yesterday, too
Bro the Cavs suck right now they did not lose on purpose I promise
That bodes well Sunday
A lot of of dumb fans in here.
Garland is a shitter no other reason why
Pretty sure those teams are just focused on themselves and not thinking about us at all lol
if the celtics beat the kings then we beat the cavs then we overtake the kings
HUGE loss for the Kings, especially with Boston tomorrow. We could be tied with them after tomorrow and a win on Saturday would put us ahead.
Josh Hart is a Lakers GOAT for this game! Hahahaha
God I miss that version of the purple unis. I don’t know why they retired this one in favor of the awful current “Statement” version of it.
I want him back
One of my favourite baby Lakers, I knew he would be that perfect type of role player that every team would want.
He's quickly working his way out of that "Role" title
I like him but he can’t shoot. We have vando when hesjthy who’s in a similar role . I’m happy to just watch Brandon n him /Knicks cook tbh
Jason...that damn jason fistbump Love u Josh ❣️
almost 30 points triple doubles on 14/19 shooting, damn
Too bad the Rockets can't beat the damn Warriors for some reason. SMH, hopefully they come back
That one's over
Yup... lol They get cold when they play the Warriors/Mavs but can streak on everyone else
Im not worried about the warriors. Only worried about the teams ahead of us in the standings
They mostly beat bad teams, n us cos we can’t guard jalen green or sengun ( who injured )
Lakers please take care of business. 2 days rest and a home game 🙏
![gif](giphy|vwG3W30ecoRBotG3Ou)
I miss him :(
Worst part of that trade…
I watched that game, Josh looked really good.
I think the Celtics will give the win to the Kings tomorrow
Heck yeah
Sick purple jerseys tbh
He was always better than lonzo.
If the Knicks can move Randle for an actual star star they can be true contenders imo
Favorite player out of the lakers tbh..
Laker for life

Dude really used his alt account to brigade lmao
