    As a Knicks fan here, Brunson is absolutely under 0 pressure, he literally "can do no wrong" in our eyes as fans, I am dead serious when I say I expect him to drop 30+ per game, playoff or not because he's that guy, the best guard in the East easily, however if we were to exit first round, no Knick fan is going to point their finger to Brunson, he's the biggest reason we finished 2nd in the regular season anyway.

      I bet you're right. I live out in Seattle so there's no real team that I root for (I do kinda root for OKC a little bit). I mostly root for individual players I like. I was a Brunson fan since that Mavs run a couple years back, but I became a massive fan this year. I love watching him play. If the Knicks get knocked out early that's only because weird stuff happened in the standings/seedings this year. Whatever. Brunson is that guy, and next year is gonna be such a better year for the Knicks.

    Greeny saying "what is he, 6'1?" is such a casual take it's insane. Brunson has been overlooked in this exact way for his whole career and for a supposed analyst on ESPN to say this is absurd. Brunson has literally had a run to the conference finals where he had to step in for an injured Luka and last year lost to the team that made the finals. He's more than capable of carrying this team deep, especially with no RJ Barrett or Julius Randle actively working against him

    • @lucasmartinez5703

    I feel like Brunson under a different kind of pressure than the others. Brunson under pressure to produce; however, if he doesn't accomplish the mission, nobody is going to be looking at him like he failed. People still will be impressed by the player he's become and the season he has had. In contrast, all the others on the list will be looked at as failures if they don't get it done.

    • @SarrisDirk
      @SarrisDirk Před 14 dny +3

      I totally agree. Julius Randle is out. Everyone expects the Knicks to try to make big moves this off-season. Nobody is gonna complain if the Knicks get knocked out by the 76ers, because in some ways, the Knicks season is already a success. And Brunson's individual season is a HUGE success. People are rightfully talking about him as a top-5 MVP candidate--no one was predicting that pre-season.

      @@AnthonyMercado-1988 I don’t think it’s fair to judge based on the record, because of that strength of schedule difference. The defense was terrible under Griffin like you said, and no one knew what they were doing. They were very unorganized, and they would have had no chance in the playoffs without a defense. The offense dropped a bit under Doc, but the defense improved enough to make them a better overall team. They at least don’t look completely lost anymore.

    I think my Cavs should be in that 5 spot. If we don’t look good in the playoffs, we gotta blow it up. Trade Mobley or Allen and trade Garland or Mitchell.

    2nd seed ain’t got no pressure ?
    Just because Tim doesn’t think the Suns are good , that means no pressure for KEVIN DURANT ?
    anything short of 12-3 in the East and winning the NBA championship is a failure for boston imo

    JB more pressure than Luka & Kyrie? Than Dame? Greeny mentioned the Mavs in the Western conference finals at the end there, a team he has those expectations for; their two stars don't have more pressure than Brunson?

    I'm sorry but Doc don' give af about anything. Dude's getting paid and he obviously has some dirt on higher uppers in the Bucks organization to be able to get the head coaching job that easily.
