What was very cool is that Brunson did this in front of Iverson
Niggas talking brunson doesnt have the speed of drose and crossover of AI. Yet niggas are scrambling when he does his in and out move and tween tween.
So? He's lucky AI is too old for this
And John Starks.
@@feroce82😂
@@feroce82 I love AI - but Brunson would SMOKE AI lol #NYINTHEHOUSE 😆
Brunson dropped floaters all over, even left a floater in the locker room toilet
😂😂😂😂
SPLASH!!!
😂😂😂 correct
He probably had the squirts stressing out
all well deserved
Julius Robinson is crazy
started laughing
He was stuck between Julius and Mitch in his mind.
Lmao😂
I’ve seen worse 😒😒😂
@professorFG Then you got other outlets talking about Mcbride with the block on Joel it was precious. Folks really don't wanna cover the knicks so when they do they fumble like crazy lol
West coast warrior here, Jalen Brunson is my favorite player outside of Steph. He is a gift to the nba
Not a Warriors fan, but I am in the same boat. He's got heart and he hustles. He's my favorite after Steph as well. I hope he does win the title. Gonna be a very tough road ahead.
Shannon got caught riding public transportation was GOLD
nothing wrong catching i train i ride it more than driving cause those parking prices is are outrageous in philly and new york lol
Imagine being that big wearing pink, while trying to keep a low profile 😅😅😅
@@dellcharles5750yall be so weird, worried about what this man wears all the time
@@dellcharles5750true

Reason why there were so many Knicks fans in Philly is because tickets at the Garden are so Damm high! It's cheaper to watch them in Philadelphia play then in NYC.
I was wondering why it was so many Knick fans there. It felt like a home game for them
It's also just not that far, I'm from a part of the Jersey Shore that's about the same distance from New York and Philly, and a lot of New Jersey is like that, being New York sports fans.
No, all the Knicks fans have moved out of NY. You hear them all up and down the coast, all the way down to Florida.
But the garden is always sold out, so I don't think that matters. We're just deep (pause)
It's cheaper to fly to Indiana and watch a game have dinner than to get 400 section tkts at 1k each
I love that John Starks was sitting courtside pumping them up.
Hey Yo ! The number 3 was my favorite player in his time ! Really glad to know he is still around the Knicks🎉👊👊👍👍👍👍👍😅 !! I am from Barbados and I have been a Knicks fan since the early 90' s through the rough and the tougher times !!! Go JB and the NY Knicks !!!
Stephen A Smith called the league on Westbrook but not for Embid's dirty play on his. Thought he was a Knicks fan
He’s a fake fan
He not a fan fr just a bandwagon he didn’t believe in the culture an what the knicks was doing
He said what Embiid did was dirty, and he should have been kicked out the game
Stephen a only a Knicks fan because it's good for tv so phony
Knicks FINO - Fan in Name Only
Get in price at Philly was only $70... MSG has been $400. Philly didn't even sell out both of their games
That’s how context is provided. The media just happens to miss facts all of the time
Msg been $300+ for nosebleeds sections since the all star break.
Bruh New York has always been unnecessarily expensive about everything lol
@@claytoncogmonjr.3862facts even when we are losing bad it’s still sold out
@@M3LOKnicks been selling out games even when Frank was drafted
Knicks have the best fans in the NBA and will take over any arena
The literally took over Philly! It's always feel good to play in home court while away
By far the best fan base, no other team is anywhere near as passionate
@@donaldpowell6725 no cap, I heard more boos than cheers for Embiid last night LOL New York fans stay loud
Flopbiid the fraud, orange and blue skiessss
When I went to a Knicks preseason game a couple of years ago, I swear the fans had energy like it was a playoffs game. They are definitely a top tier fanbase.
There are no Knicks or Brunson commercials during these playoffs. SGA and Chet out here singing "what a girl wants" in commercials.
😂😂
Lol😅😊
there’s actually an at&t commercial with brunson and another with him and randle i’ve seen a few times
Well he about to get them now 😂
Brunson has two commercials out now
The NBA is in good hands when the Knicks are playing well
SA was clowning 🤡 the Knicks for signing JB he's such a phoney 😅😅😅
Seriously?
@@desireerdawson933not clowning but he said he’s not good enough and knicks need a superstar as Brunson is just a co star
I’d argue the majority of people were clowning them for that contract initially, nobody saw this coming, and be sit on a high horse and tell us you saw this coming when he signed.
@@Interstellarwork if you watched JB in college and his days with Dallas you'd know this was bound to happen.
@@moark they were clowning 🤡 JB and the Knicks.
Every time Shannon is on, FS1 has to be "FML, we really screwed this one up, and let go of the wrong dude"
they average around the same views as first take vids…. someone is on 5 days a week the other 2…
@@briangonzalez2336 no sir they no where near as close to first take especially on Mon and Tuesdays they like at 150 200k first take at 500 to 750
😂😂😂😂😂 Right because Skip is struggling over there
The only thing i hate about beinf a knicks fan is Stephen A also being a fan😡
Brunson is a true superstar and number one option. 💯💯🔥🔥🔶🔷🔶🔷
We need to sign a petition to have Monica and Alan on any ESPN segment covering the Knicks. It’s only right.
True, I know a casual take when I hear one smh and SAS himself don't know how this is happening lol don't even know the players names smh
fr they actually cover the team
Knicks fans definitely showing how passionate they are for their team. Also got to remember Philly fans have the Philies and Eagles who have both won championships within last 10 years. NYC hasn't had a champion from any of the major sports in awhile. Fan base is starving
Knicks have there foot on the Sixers neck we need to finish this off at home. Can't blame Knicks fans for taking over the Philly Arena, Sixer fans should have showed out for there team.
Don’t love us when we re up, and kick us when we re down . Real Knicks fans don’t waver, let’s Go KNICKS!!
JB is a leader. He has a never say die mentality and the rest of the players on the team go through the fire for the “W”😊
His Knicks. SAS and ESPN marketing for numbers.He still wants Mitchell and Haliburton. He did not vote for Brunson but now he is a top 5 MVP candidate
Big Perk’s Knicks
Brunson is a modern day AI! It’s rear u see little guards put the team on their back! Steph is another one
He plays nothing like Allen Iverson.
@@ZenigundamHe didn’t say anything about the play style he comparing them because of the size
Steph is 6’3 he’s not a little guard
I wouldn’t say AI, I’ll say he’s like a more mature version of Derrick Rose but with a more outside game. He has that ability to drive like Rose does.
@@Zenigundam did I say he plays like him?!?!
If only Randle was fit
Is it crazy to say that they probably play better without him? He’s not mentally prepared for playoff basketball
@westenshadowcult Randle flops every playoffs, Knicks are better without him
@@jessesparks8307 The only credence to that argument is the fact the Knicks do space better with Randle off the floor. However, the Knicks would be WAY better with Randle in the lineup right now. Dude is the Knicks' second best offensive player and it's not remotely close and adds a level of aggression to the roster other players don't have. They'd probably have swept Philly already if Randle were playing, cause when Brunson is off, Randle has been there to pick up the slack. I think the whole postseason stuff with him is also a myth, his first postseason he had to do a lot of carrying for a trash roster, while last season he played massively injured the entire time. Even with their 3-1 series lead, Randle would add a lot of what the Knicks' current postseason roster lacks: offensive firepower beyond JB and ferocity.
@MrRapmaster19 same people trashing Randle think Melo was a legend in NY when Melo was shooting 37% and only won 1 playoff series his entire career in NY. The man had only 7 playoff wins here.
@jessesparks8307 if Randle was healthy they have a shot to make the finals, without they don't have a chance
Who is Julius Robinson? Shannon lmaoo
That healthy cte that unc got😂
@@eatmakock3646 😂😭
stay off the weeeed
I'm a Philly fan through and through, love my Eagles and Sixers , phillies , and flyers, and Villanova wildcats..... I will give props to my Villinova big three Brunson, Josh Hart , and Devinchiso. So proud when we defeated North Carolina for the National championship with Micheal Jordon at courtside. Will never forget that. Truly proud of the Philly Nova crew.....
This lighting got Stephen a looking bronzed out😂
And Shannon looks charcoal 😂😂
The injury of Randle let this team and specially Brunson become great.
Nah man. Brunson and Randle we coast to Finals and best Boston in 6
They were blowing teams out with randle after getting OG.
"i was there for game 3 I feel right at home Knicks fans everywhere" 😂
The media needs to start hyping Brunson more if they want to keep up the big market theories. Brunson is in NY and couldn’t possibly play better. Good regular season. Amazing in post season. & he doesn’t get the superstar treatment yet still.
Remember when SAS wanted Donavan Mitchell over Brunson...smh.
Brunson bigger then melo in the garden at this point!
I mean they both made it the same place in the playoffs and Brunson is younger
not yet
The Melo disrespect is crazy
Brunson has to go further and repeat for that to change but we'll see. I'm wishing him the best.
What's the point of this ?
“NEW YORK STAND UP , NEW YORK STAND UP” 😂😂😂😂
Corny af
Jalen is the smoothest and the coolest, on and off the court. He never gets rattled, he always has the same demeanor, he always believes he can be better and get better. One day.......he's gonna have a statue outside the garden. As the Cajun cook used to say, "I guarantee. "
10:59 😭😭😭 my guy started glitching
Imagine how electric a Knicks vs Timberwolves finals would be? Just two dawg teams going at it. The world needs this
We’d probably need Randle in that matchup but yes, Brunson and ANT going at it, sign me up for 7 games 💯💯
Molly wearing a bathrobe
KNICKS IN 5 LETS GO
Feels kinda like the Knicks are having a similar season to that of the Detroit Lions in the NFL. They’re a team that preaches hustle, and have rose to relevancy with a starving fanbase behind them.
Their fans are taking over away stadiums, just like Lions fans did in several of their away games last year.
We had a great season last year too.. really thibs whole tenure has been a success
It is crazy how easy it is to get from Philly to NYC
Molly dressed like she just got up to make coffee
I'm a 90's kid and all my life I've associated the Knicks with Patrick Ewing. If Jalen Brunson takes the Knicks all the way to the Finals and somehow wins their first chip since 73, he'll maybe usurp Ewing in my mind when I think about them. That is so surreal to me. But this happens throughout history. When David Robinson and Tim Duncan won the Spurs first title, probably people associated the team with George Gervin before then.
Jalen bridging and Josh hart are playing with more heart and grit, Knicks would’ve swept the sixers if they had their level of talent
knicks are better. sixers were always overrated.
You know it's really bad when it's mostly a New York crowd in Philadelphia.
Molly dressed like Scarface sister before she tried to off Tony
😂😂😂
I remember during the 1999 playoffs, we played Atlanta in the second round. That arena was at LEAST 40% Knicks fans. There was even a sizeable contingent of Knick fans for the Indiana series. When the team is certifiably GOOD, Knick fans will most definitely travel, no matter the state.
An Amtrak trip between New York and Philly is only 90 minutes. Tickets at Madison Square Garden are so expensive that it is cheaper for Knicks fans to get a ticket in Philly buy a round-trip train ticket then to go to MSG.
Brunson signing is bigger than KD w/ GS
He said other than LeBron and Durant
He hasn’t won anything yet
Stephen been waiting for this 47😂
Bruh he was also the one who wanted Donovan Mitchell over Brunson. He’s just a talking head.
What is Molly wearing 😂😂😂
Great show, thanks.
McNutt is the Knick AFICIONADO here, she more in tune with what's up
ESPN,
They ARE NOT HIS KNICKS!
WE DONT CLAIM HIM AS OUR OWN.
TrueOrange&Blue
The Carmelo disrespect is getting out of hand. Brunson doing his thing but lets mot act like Melo wasnt holding it down for the Knicks
No he wasn’t, melo was a solo act
As a Knicks fan, we taking Perks reaction over SAS any day
So we’re just gonna sit here and pretend all these clowns didn’t sh*t all over Brunson and call him overpaid??? Where’s that energy now??? smh bruh
Who's Julius Robinson? 😅😅😅😅
The Sixers let the Knicks *control the paint* for the entire fourth quarter. And you know what's crazy? the Knicks didn't even have a big man on the court (while the Sixers had a 7'0", 300lbs MVP on the court).
⬆ *Basketball Malpractice* ⬆
It's really nice for JB to get eyes on him from all over now, personally I've watched him play this game all season so it's not surprising watching him do it now. However, even I will admit that in that spot in the playoffs it' even a bit more impressive, Brunson is THAT dude! LFGK!
If the Knicks steal a championship this year New York and the NBA will blow the Fck up! Talk about the excitement! This is needed.. I may go all in with the Knicks vs Wolves in the finals..
How about Knicks vs the Mavericks. Jalen back to Dallas
@@alexpisco1613 that’ll also be crazy! But the Wolves are in fact better than the Maverick’s..
That’s crazy I predicted the same thing the other day🔥
Anything can happen
NBA won’t allow that to happen sorry
I don't know why embid is blaming the sixers fans, it's the Knicks fans who went there 😂 lol
He always has to blame someone.
A lot of people owe Jalen Brunson a public apology! I don’t want to hear anything about Donovan Mitchell again. Brunson has had an MVP level season!
"He's Just a Steady Body" ...lolll Go Knicks!
Let's go Knicks!
Its disgusting to see the knicks take half of the stadium like its a college game. That should never happen
Why didn't Philly fans buy those tickets up right away? Embiid played so dirty that Knicks fans said eff that we are taking over
Philly isn't as tough as you think. Those days are over
Bruh Philly tickets are way cheaper than New York tickets and New York isn't that far from Philly
@@darkace9194 the culture isn't the same as the eagles and Phillies
Between this and the clipper game it was a great night of basketball
Stephen A. You were one of the broadcasters criticizing the signing of Jalen Brunson. Just a reminder nothing personal. Peace
SAS we don’t claim you goofy 🧡💙
You and your imaginary friends along with the voices in your head don't count, boy!
@@kgrkid BOY WE DO NOT CLAIM HIM BOY. 😂
@@kgrkid We don't. He's a clown and fake Knicks fan.
we dont claim SA he's not one of us
Y'all CZcams gangsta never cease to amaze me@@ramonalejandrosuare
“His” Knicks??? He thinks Quentin Grimes is still on the team and thinks Hartenstein is still coming off the bench.
Love to see guys like John Starks in the building, cheering on their former team. Also peeped CJ Stroud there right next to him lol. These Knicks really remind me of the 90s knicks, I know they don't have a dominant big man like Pat Ewing was, but the scrappiness of the team as a whole, the defensive edge, flying around all over the place, the hustle, it's just great to see man. The NBA is better when the NY Knicks are a relevant, competitive team. I firmly believe that.
The cost of Knicks' tickets is ridiculous. The Sixers' tickets are far cheaper, so it made sense for the New York fans to make that short trip to Philly to support the team.
Absolutely, it makes sense!
Molly taking a L for that fit
😆
that is fr a bathrobe, change my mind
I love Brunson game so much. He can do whatever he wants but makes all the right decisions
Can't wait for may 1st 2 am will put the ⏰️ clock 🎉🎉
It’s the Culture. Would never happen at a Phillies or Eagles game
Well said .
What do you mean by "culture"? Are you talking about the people who run the Sixers? Or the "culture" of the people that attend the games?
Brunson proved that he needs two more of him to give the Celtics a problem
The Celtics are going to beat the Villanova Knicks soundly. Adunoby can't guard Tatum.
@@ZenigundamLmfaooooo. FOH. Ain’t nobody in NYC scared of Tatum.
@@ZenigundamI’m a Celtics supporter and that’s the team to watch out for, they can take not break they play with urgency, something Celtics has been failing to do countless of times. Don’t sleep on the Knicks coaching as well
@@Zenigundam listen even as a Knicks fan I can obviously say that the Knicks will be underdogs in a series against the Celtics. But to write them off completely is exactly how the Celtics will lose that series, don't ever underestimate that NY squad.
@@Zenigundamthem chokers wont even make to the ECF stop it
Charles barley called it last season… one of the best signing over the last 20 years(excluding bron and kd moves )
They should replay the clip of Stephen a reaction when they signed Jalen Brunson
Is molly gonna take a shower now?
Huh😂😂
What? 😂
Where Im from thats what girls use right before they take a bath or get a massage, BATHROBE just like the one shes wearing it looks solid
I think Knicks fans are happy they got Brunson instead of Donovan Mitchell, Brunson elevates his teammates, can't say the same about Mitchell
Jalen Brunson
WOW performance
10 Ast 47 Pts
Big shout to Kyle Lowery for that veteran play at the end of the 4th intentionally missing a free throw but his teammates wasn't on the same page
Josh Hart couldn't get it going offensively but on defense he got it going 17Rebs
OG Anunoby, played both ends of the floor
14 Rebs 16 Pts
SAS’ Knicks one game away from advancing to the second round of the playoffs my goodness he’s hyped!
the make up these men have on looks crazy
it was always going to be knicks in 5 stop the 🧢
What makes JB so special is that he's relatable to us ordinary folks ! ❤
Jalen never stopped being aggressive. He wasn’t concerned about no bs percentages. The team dynamic is for him to be aggressive and he should stick to the script.
how does this impact lebron’s career though?
Brush your teeth 😆
🍅
Rent free....
Kawhi to raptors was big wasn’t it?
Trade not a FA signing
Did he forget that Miami picked up Jimmy Butler in 2019-2020 & they've been to 2 NBA Finals & 3 Conference Finals? What have the Knicks done in that time span? Nada lol. Have several seats plz.
Shaq to Miami was huge too at that moment in time
76ers is over just plan your vacation now 😆
Bruh The Tickets Are Cheaper In Philly & On Top Of That, A REAL NYer Driving Gets Their In A Hour 20 Mins No Traffic. Going To Philly Is Right Their 2 Us, U Ain’t Stopping Knicks Nation Taking Over A Arena, Ask Orlando 😂
Best fair weather fan ever!
Who else notice all ESPN post start with Stephen A
Rule number 1
Skip the part monica gets to talk
Your tripping. Monica is 100x better than Molly. Get rid of Molly. Monica actually knows the game and adds to the conversation while Molly sits there looking ugly asf making no contribution
Also what does this say about Luka, as a team player and leader ?????
Seeing Brunson BALL, makes Dallas look crazy
3:56 tha herky jerky
Julius Robinson, huh Shannon😂
He must've thought Randle had some Big Dog Glenn Robinson in him Lol.
The fact this CLOWN called the league to ask why Russell was not suspended was the last straw for me. I am done with First Take , until the fake brother, SA, is gone!!!!
