He has to win a championship to be a superstar meanwhile players who won less are called superstars
Lol. Bandwagoner's comment. You are called a superstar even if you dont win a chip but at least you gave to show this level of play for at least 4 years. He is a potential superstar
Like who
@@doubaya2959you have to at least be MVP caliber top 10
@isaiahh4108 so y is Jason tatum a superstar?
@@ApoloWilliams1) He was a Lottery Pick 2) He was selected by a historic and/or high market franchise 3) he's been to the finals at least once 4)He's Finished Top 5 MVP voting 5)Multiple years as leader of his team 6) He putts up Big numbers. You can apply these to most Superstars
The best part of the nba playoffs is that you can see which media members actually watch basketball and which just repeat whatever they hear
Is he top 10 in jersey sales and sneaker sales?
Bro he’s not a superstar this is his first good year let’s calm down
What u mean he played good last year. I’m taking him over Dame Steph and booker right now.
@@rsdiegosthis wrong
@@rsdiegosu dont know basketball and it shows
Not a Knicks fan and it’s pretty clear the guy is a superstar. Watch him in the fourth quarter. Sixers had no answer, it’s not a fluke. The dudes been doing it ALL season long.
Facts Bro
Refs let get away w flopping back crazy
Superstar? ok 😂
Just be honest and say ya'll hate the Knicks
Y u say tht. They telling the truth
@@DennisB-is4mjdont be mad cus they smoked Philly lol
@@luisbernard167they are furious that they beat Philly lol
I hate the Knicks champ 👍
Facts…I rather them say that then keep moving the goalposts
They really negate the fact that Randle was injured in the playoffs, but will lean on that excuse for Embiid... make it make sense.
Facts smh
So yall comparing Jeremy Lin to Brunson. Tell me you don’t follow Brunson’s career without telling me you don’t follow Brunson’s career.
They didn’t compare Brunson with Lin lol…They made a point about the New York media market by using the short term Lin phenomenon and the New York media market’s reaction to that, and how that can be relative to how they perceive how individual players play and what they produce in a relative short time. It has to do with the Knicks/media market, not Brunson/Lin.
I agree with you about Brunson being great, but stop using that tell me this without telling me that bit. It's reserved for simps. Use your intellect to articulate
Jalen Brunson averaged 30 two years in a row in a playoff series
How is this not superstar level ?
It’s not that hard. He has a national championship along with putting himself on the map three years ago when he was in Dallas and by the way got his team to the #2 seed with being up 3-2 to match. So how is that complicated sir🤷🏿
These guy's are salty 🧂 Brunson have been doing this in the playoffs for the last 3 years straight.
Chris Broussard been hating on Brunson since day 1. Check the tapes, he said JB wasn’t even a top 15 pg in the nba. Dude is a bozo, his arguments are pointless
Totally agree@John-PaulHunt-wy7lf. They terrify me because of the pace they play and the fact Thibs is running the starters into the ground
Chris Broussard has been spewing lies for years, so take whatever he says with a grain of salt. I don't know who the old black guy.
Yea he’s off his rocks cause a old ass career bench player jus started making noise ok buddy😭
When did Chris say this?
This is why espn didn't allow this dude to talk...
Nahhh Jalen is a superstar you guys just don’t see it yet, but continue to doubt him and you’ll see soon enough.
I knew Jalen was good in Dallas I didn’t know he was as great as he has been in New York what more does he have to do lol? I think he’s a superstar too
True..and for them to bring up Lin is so disrespectful
Agreed💯🫵🏿
@@AmaZment717that’s what I said out loud as I’m driving home! Like are you really comparing Jalen to Jeremy Lin? Mad disrespectful.
@@ranauldogreer2711exactly! And for some reason I think if he was playing on another team they would give him his flowers but let it be with the Knicks then nahh he’s not a superstar. This man has been consistent for two years straight. Just haters but they’ll eat their words soon. Let’s go Knicks
Julius Randle is an all star and made 2 all nba teams. Averages 25 and 12 rebs, and these dudes say "he wouldn't make a difference".........that's just ridiculous!!!!! 🤦🏽♂️
He wouldn't have if anything he would have hurt the Knicks taking the ball out of jb hands. Randle is to inconsistent
They right.. his stats are meaningless.. & he’s WORSE in the playoffs.. he turns the ball over & messes up the flow of the offense holding the ball all day
@@Prince-cz5qyYou do know he was injured last year, right? You all act like he has this long playoff history.
@floridaboy7273 So basically you weren't watching the Knicks this year. He was playing his best ball as a Knick. The Randle ISO Black Hole wasn't happening this season
@johnstrika9170 they don't know what they're talking about bro 🤦🏽♂️
I don’t understand what the Brunsons did to Chris Broussard 😂
The Knicks are actually good now and people are having a hard time processing it. Jeremy Lin? You guys actually making that comparison? These clowns just can't admit that they were wrong about dude, so now they have to move the goalposts.
What he need to do to be considered a superstar? Drop a 100 points . The Knicks aren’t better with Randle? These dudes are casuals.
Comparing what Brunson is doing to Jeremy Lin should get them off the air
IKR? These guys are hot take clowns
He didn't compare them. He used Lin as an example to show that everything is magnified in NY, which is true.
@@drexeldragon1723 that’s making a comparison
@@naquanmcneil5320 no it's not. The direct comparison was with Trae Young. Brou mentioned Lin to say stuff gets overblown in NY. Never once did he say they're comparable players.
@@drexeldragon1723 Lin was overblown because it was like 2 weeks of him playing well…. Brunson has been doing this in the playoffs since he was in Dallas. These are 2 entirely different situations and Broussard needs to just admit he was wrong about Brunson
If Jalen wins a championship this year. Y’all still gonna say he’s not a SUPERSTAR 😂😂😂😂
What drugs are you on thinking Knicks get past Celtics 🤦
Do u think Robert hory was a super star he’s got 7 rings
@@keemooo243Hort averaged 7 points. Ño
@@keemooo243Hory averaged 7 points no
@@soda8736 so Brunson went 1-28 other night based off yo criteria it’s jus winning a chip so y not
Brunson is a superstar stop it
He's a star but he gotta get to the finals to be a SuperStar
Not a superstar...not yet...I think we need to see more!!
@@badafinkoifyso Harden, Luka and Embid aren't superstars then
@@mrdeebo313 they ain't either. What winning have they done? Did I say they were
If he is a superstar than so is Trae young
Julius Randle would be a second guy to create offense for the Knicks and draw attention. Not only that but the Knicks are down to 7 guys so they could just use another body. He may hurt in some ways but I think Randle gives the Knicks a higher ceiling.
Randle doesn't hurt that's a bs narrative he actually makes jalen and og better people dont even watch games just go off narratives
Wat does randle hurt its sad this bs narrative in January wen og got thier wit randle knicks was 13 and 1
@@ApoloWilliams some say the team is more efficient, there better defensively, and the ball sticks with Julius not my belief just the messenger
@@ApoloWilliams Yes and I think the January Knicks will always be the best version of the 2024 Knicks. However Randle does make some dumb plays and ball stops a bit. Not to mention he's not a plus defender and most of the guys in the Knicks rotation right now are plus defenders.
Jalen been great last 3 years its sad asf ya call bum ass jaylen brown and Jason tatum superstars
When did anyone call J Brown a superstar? Never heard that in my life. I don’t watch/listen to this podcast all the time, so did these two actually say that about Brown because that would be kinda hilarious since all we do hear about him is that he has no left hand. Most, if all, superstars” can use both hands when approaching the hoop.
Nobdody called brown a super star they have had and amazing amount of success wat has Jalen Brunson old ass lead the Knicks to not yo mention their both prob about 4/5 years younger
@@emilianoo.1596people have called jbrown n Tatum superstars
@keemooo243 lmaoo thier the same age smfh 🤦 wat success has jaylen brown and tatum had with 3x better teams than jb has nothing they both shrink in playoffs 🤷
@@playahdub5287 thank you
It wouldn't be a "series by series, is he a superstar?" if you actually watched the Knicks play all season. Then, it'd be obvious that he's been a superstar.
If Embid, 3 40 points games in a row I. Playoffs, three straight years winning a playoff series, two of them without his second best player DOING ANYTHING! he is indeed a superstar. Playoffs and what you do there means more
Jalen brunson shot 8 for 26 in game 1 and 8 for 29 in game 2 and it was barely even talked about. It would be the number 1 story if a real superstar shot like that in the first 2 games of a series.
Story of hardens first 5 years. Dont do that! Lol
Luka just shot 8-27. No one has said anything
Because everyone knows Brunson is a playoff raiser and the those first two games were an anomaly
then brunson avged 42/10 the next 4 games
They both at time sound mad and do not at time use good reason to be analysis.
Devin Booker's game is nothing like Kobe's. Two different skills sets.
Blame Stephen A Smith for this take!!
Who is a superstar in this league? Who watches the Bucks play? What ratings do they get? Who watches the Mavericks play? What ratings do they get? Who watched the Suns get swept by Minnesota? All you have to do is check the ratings… that will tell you who the Superstars are. Jalen is a superstar because he’s a top ten player and he plays for a top 3 brand in the NBA. And he actually produces unlike certain “so-called” superstars.
He won 2 chips in college. He spent his first years in the league has a role player due to OPPORTUNITY. Since he been in NY he been puttin in work regardless of injuries to teammates. Keep it real
Jalen Brunson a superstar - you guys need to get it together
The 1 point series differential makes it more hard to swallow the banned "Trae Young" bailout call they kept giving Brunson in the 4th quarter critical moments
Downplaying Julius Randle is crazy. 1st year in the playoffs he was by himself, last year he was playing on an injured knee. If you seriously think the Knicks wouldn't be better having him playing with Brunson, OG, Divo and Hartenstein and then having Hart coming off the bench, you're crazy
He's definitely playing like a superstar , hope he does well the rest of playoffs 🙏
This playoff run will show if Jalen is a superstar or not...
You guys are SUCH haters, as NYers just hating on the Knicks is so corny
Remember everyone "Trust the Process"! Lol
Jalen Brunson definitely can go down as the greatest Knick ever if he wins. It’s not like the knicks have a storied history like that. Bernard king, Patrick Ewing, Melo, Willis reed ain’t going on nobody’s all time greatest list.
This is why Broussard is on the dollar store ESPN channel
People don’t know what the word superstar means anymore. There’s only a handful of superstars. Brunson isn’t one of them yet
To me a superstar is someone who people know that dont even watch basketball
CB is always trying to label someone a HOF or superstar.
Brunson is a SUPERSTAR all those basketball “experts” said he was over paid still at it
An emerging superstar. Playing like one right now tho
Dudes be hating...brunson won 2 national championships in college, Luka was holding him back
U hating on Luka...doesn't seem to hold Kai back from averaging 25 on 50 40 90....and won 50 games
@@coreyhiggins6890 Kai not coming off the bench 🤦🏻♂️
Luka himself said it was a mistake to let him walk.
@@simon808 Luka gon say the right thing....definitely rather have kyrie
Who gives a Fck about college, this is NBA we’re talking about
@@dabu8701right the mf stayed all 4 years at that d2 college he should have dud that
After getting out of the shadow of Luka and given the keys to his own franchise, he’s definitely been looking like a superstar to me.
superstar is for the best of the best in the league, can’t just give it out to everyone. it should be like the top 8 players who preform great for multiple seasons
Name a superstar that could take JB’s place with the roster and injuries Knicks have then tell me if they can carry them to the #2 seed
Over the last 15 years theres been 15 30 point games from the Point Guard position of The New York Knicks
Since the start of last season, Jalen Brunson has scored at least 30 points 49 times, and he's not a Superstar?!?!?!?
His game is super. So is his leadership and ability to come through when it matters. So who cares what y'all say about him being a superstar or not?
CB never has his own take. He goes with what every other media person says
If you call Dame Dolla a superstar….call Jalen Brunson a superstar
He been balling for 2-3 seasons Like this Dallas he was playing good
A bunch of dudes who didnt watch this team play with randle commenting on his impact … once og joined the whole team clicked including randle
dude is leading scorer in playoffs and avging 35/5/9
He's played this way the entire season
Damn Chris you could have literally done this entire take by yourself.
Not a crazy take at all. It’s possible. What is Pat Ewing??? 30th all time? What is Melo? 45, 50? Jalen Brunson could be the best Knick of all time. They don’t have a ton of great players
Brunson could definitely become the greatest Knick ever
People aren't calling him a superstar because of one series...he carried his team to 50 wins and the second seed...wtf are these guys watching? And only the Knicks can lose a 25 10 5 all NBA all star and 'it's better for them'.🙄
What’s crazy is Broussard lives in Jersey and work in New York. Somebody should check Broussard. He is a New York hater.
Aint he in LA?
He a superstar,
Hes like kyrie just not as flashy
Jalen Brunson is clearly a superstar and it’s not even arguable
A superstar is someone that can lead someone to a chip as a first option (an NBA finals you can make an argument for), there are very few by definition someone like Westbrook in his prime was never a superstar to me
Brunson with all due respect can’t do that
you dont know if he can yet
@@zairethinker I don’t see him leading the Knicks to the finals or the chip
If I’m wrong I’ll be the first person to say I’m wrong
But if he does, they’ll move the goalposts and say he has to repeat since anyone can win one…people just don’t like to be wrong that’s all
dude avged 35/5/9 vs sixers. he could lead a team to title if he had the team
It takes yrs of success on and of the court to be considered a "superstar". Jalen made some noise in the '22 playoffs but he just started to put up "superstar" numbers (reg season and postseason) last season. Let it organically build.
If Jalen Brunson grew a neck, he would be 6'6" and Michael Jordan.
He is a superstar time for championship or bust expectations.
These guys are actually saying Brunson only put the team on his back in this series. Where were these so called sports professionals been ALL SEASON ? I know where Brunson was, singlex handedly pulling the Knicks up to 2nd place. Perk is the only unbiased voice out there. And he's an ex Celtic. Perk has all my respect, these 2 have lost my respect.
Why are people tryiny to argue otherwise? There's people who still say Jayson Tatum isnt a superstar because he hasnt won a championship, so why would Brunson be going off that logic?
Brunson has been like this all year long and the Knicks are not here without him
Jalen is a star player,thats it
And brunson wasnt a role player in dallas he was a legit second option and some nights 1st
He's better than a superstar. He's maxed out his ability with sky high intangibles. A championship player he just needs help.
Ohhhhh that makes sense yall have a face for radio
You are actually comparing Brunson to Jeremy Lin
This dude said "If they loss the series no one would think he is a superstar"... that's your explanation? Then they proceed to compare this to "Jeremy Lin"? This can't be real life... y'all are ass!
If Brunson is not a "Superstar" then what is the criteria? What is missing?
Say what you want, Big Body Brunson is New York's Super Star and King of NY. Stay tuned.
It’s obvious you guys don’t watch any games Jalen has been playing like this all year and since he joined the Knicks he has less help to help him then other stars he also has had over 15 40 point games this year including the regular season and playoffs he also had a 50 point and 60 point game he is undersized at his position so yes he is a top 5 player in the league and a mvp candidate doesn’t matter what you guys think or say it’s obvious you guys are bias and hate the Knicks so much
No way y’all just brought up Jeremy lin when we talking about Brunson lmaooo y’all joke too much sometimes
it's simple folks
if you have to ask about any player "is he a superstar?" that means he's not
I personally think superstar is thrown around to loosely. Like a lot of things are, Jalen is on his way he’s a star now but he’s getting there. A championship in NY will definitely bring him there. We have to define what’s a superstar. He’s getting there tho he’s close.
They are comparing Jeremy Lin to Jalen Brunson? Lol
Brunson is LEGIT
What is the real definition of a superstar then
WHY THE HATE FOR 😕 J.B.!!😢
Trae Young didn’t follow up his performance and he plays in Atlanta. Brunson did this last year as well. He won two titles at Villanova. Who cares how much hype was behind him going into the NBA draft. He’s already proven himself. Moving the goalpost again… shameful. And they work in NY and Rob is from NY.
The disrespect of Julius Randle is insane. Dude is an all star for Christ's sake! Same with Brunson he is now at the top of the elite players. He's a &^%$ MVP candidate. He didn't start playing amazing this month. He's been incredible for 2 seasons
No pedigree? National POY, 2-time NCAA champ
Brunson is a star but not super star yet but he is on his way to superstar if he keeps up what he’s doing consistently for years to come
I have to strongly disagree...he scored the most points in Knicks playoff history...led them to a number 2 seed...doing this all while in NY...what else does he have to do rescue a baby out of a burning building?
if brunson is a superstar than what about players like young, maxey, dfox, dmitchell, etc.. Are they superstars too?
I think they misspelled the "odd" couple....these guys are clearly out of touch
Unless the superstar label comes with a bigger paycheck I don’t think brunsen or Knicks fans give a dang. I don’t. Results matter. That’s shuts everbody up
Clearly neither one of you have watched Brunson consistently play since he's been a Knick, do ya homework and back ya nonsensical comments with statistics and facts!
Brunson done far more than kyrie as the man and kyrie considered a superstar.
Brunson being a second round pick is the problem. Nba teams need to stop focusing on potential in age and start focusing on ability and intangibles. Brunson was always gonna take time b3cause late 1st and 2nd round picks go to good teams with superstars and such
I get the superstar thing but to compare Brunson to Jeremy Lin like he’s a flash in the pan is really absurd and disrespectful. Do yall realize because it’s NY it’s why yall media talking heads are knocking Jalen Brunson.
Yes
Who cares about where he was picked?? GM missed the talent so we discredit him for it that’s wild
76ers had Embiid and Maxey Knicks didn't have Brunson and Randle. These guys are HATERS!!!!!!
Stop hating on this man he's a bonifide Superstar I don't care what other people say that drafted him they got it wrong
Wtf are these guys talking about!? 😂😂 he’s being going off all year! They need to start talking away these guys mics. You can tell who doesn’t watch the games
Man y'all so biased and just can't believe what you're seeing .... 40 point is 40 points no matter how much New York magnify it .. just stop it. JB11 is a super star
He doesn’t have a superstar name. That’s why! Brunson is my definition of a SUPERSTAR.
This dude is not a super start he’s a star on subpar team full of role players this man jus became a starter 2 seasons ago I need to see more I’m sorry this man is no rookie he’s old ash u don’t become a super star at 29 + years old with no real expectations only people think the Knicks are even getting to the finals are New Yorkers stop it
