00:00If Jalen Brunson wins an NBA championship, will he go down as the greatest Knick of all time?
00:10This is like the question that I don't want to be asked, but it sounds amazing because it means the
00:17Knicks win it.
00:18I don't know.
00:20I mean, here's why.
00:21Okay, 36-19, that's what Walt Frazier gave to Jerry West, Elgin Baylor, and Will Chamberlain.
00:33Sit down and think about this for a second, folks.
00:36Game 7, winner takes all, 36-19.
00:42It's the greatest Game 7 performance in the history of the NBA in the playoffs or the finals,
00:49and it could be one of the greatest, ready, folks, performances.
00:53It's probably that and the Reggie Jackson three-homer game, although I think that was in a Game 6.
00:59So it wasn't even in a Game 7 winner take all.
01:02That's big.
01:04I'm a Ewing guy because I'm an Oakley guy, but Big Pat never got a ring.
01:12He, it's almost like Brunson becomes Mark Messier.
01:19If he wins a ring, it means as much as when Messier, remember, 54-year curse for the New York
01:28Rangers, 1940 to 1994.
01:30Y'all don't think I know about that because y'all know a little bit about hockey, too.
01:33But it's 53 years for the Knicks.
01:35It would be Mark Messier-esque if he could lead that team to an NBA championship this year.
01:41I think he has to go down as the greatest addition that the Knicks have ever brought into their organization
01:48since Monroe.
01:51I mean, right?
01:52Since Monroe.
01:53When Monroe was brought in for that 73 title, would you agree?
01:57Yeah, I think in regards to one of the greatest, yes.
02:01If you're going to go free agency, I got one that's really good people forget.
02:05Bernard King.
02:07When Bernard King came to the Knicks in the early 90s, remember, but his career kind of spiraled downward when
02:13he was in Golden State.
02:14Injuries.
02:14And then he went to the Knicks, and he was just, I mean, he was probably the big three with
02:20Magic and Larry in the 80s until he blew his knee out.
02:24But if you talk about free agency, that is the key.
02:27And he will go down as one of, Jalen Brunson could be the greatest free agent addition, not just for
02:34the Knicks, but in all of New York City sports.
02:39Man, I'll tell you what.
02:41You're right.
02:42Madison Square Garden with Bernard King.
02:44Going to those games.
02:46I went to a bunch of those.
02:4836 a night was normal.
02:50I mean, when you went to the Garden, Bernard King was just, he was lighting the Garden up, dude.
02:58I mean, it was nothing like going to Madison Square Garden with Bernard King.
