Yea but the Spurs aren’t new to foul baiting and SGA is a better scorer than Jalen Brunson. And their shooting percentages are comparable too. They have the Athleticism that gave Knicks trouble against the Hawks, the difference is Spurs Can actually shoot the ball unlike the Atlanta Hawks and their defense is 10x better. Karl Anthony Towns is The difference in this series . Jalen Brunson will get shut down, but I think Kat could cause problems for Wemby. Which is why I say Spurs in 6
convenient how you leave out everyone else on the Knicks (OG, Mikal, Hart, McBride, Robinson), our success this year has been due to team basketball/ball movement and that won't change against the Spurs. Hawks were the hottest shooting team heading into the playoffs, and before G4, gave us a ton of trouble before Mike Brown changed his offense/defense centered around KAT
Brunson knows better than to get shut down at *this* point of the season (his career high of 61 was against the Spurs btw). SGA is better at drawing fouls but I am more than happy trusting Brunson in the clutch when it matters. Knicks will be ready for the Spursm from 1 to 15.
And like I have said above, keep sleeping on the Knicks as always (especially with the western conference bias that always seems to be rampant here)

Spurs have great team chemistry too, and their more athletic than you guys…..
I don’t think the Cavs, 76ers, and Hawks Prepared you guys for the Spurs got man. I think Wolves and Thunder prepared the Spurs for this moment. It’s just a matter of Fatigue for the Spurs. I did say 6 games. I think Karl Anthony Towns will be the difference for the Knicks not Jalen Brunson.

Could go either way tbf. Both great teams deservedly in the finals. This was the matchup I was rooting for. I think it goes to 7 and anyone can win it, I love Wemby so I am rooting for him obviously but I won't be too mad if NYK win it too. Likeable team, I love KAT especially. Just praying for an iconic finals series which goes down to the wire and some great entertaining basketball for the neutral fan.
Am glad lol I been rooting for Wemby these playoffs. People, including me, were once again to soon to call a dynasty. Happened with Nuggets in '23 and Celtics in '24 and now OKC in '25. Really puts it into perspective how much harder it is to dominate than just win one chip. OKC 24-1 start to the season kinda sold me but eh I am happy they fizzled out. Not everyone can make the finals while dominating in the RS back to back...
