00:00all right let's bring in kevin walsh kevin i don't think there's any question that we give
00:03credit to the knicks for winning the championship because in order to uh to win a championship
00:08regardless of the team blowing it you have to come back like the spurs could have played horrible
00:12basketball in the third and fourth quarter in every single game and if the knicks you know
00:16poop the bed they don't come back and win too but that being said how do you view the nba
00:22finals and
00:23how it went down man it's a great question i i think for the knicks i will remember them
00:31as a great team i think there's been a lot of individual conversation i understand that that is
00:39a lot of times how this sport works but it's not every not every team is uh oh that's a
00:48lebron team
00:48or a michael team the story of the knicks to me was almost everyone realizing their potential
00:56which means carl anthony towns having i know he didn't close the series strong but the best ever
01:04postseason plus minus period og ananobi shattering a record for true shooting percentage in a postseason
01:13run while playing all nba defense mccall bridges really not justifying that trade it was still
01:21terrible but nobody cares because they won and he found his rhythm within this series josh hart
01:28kind of be you know this role player on steroids and even mike brown really justifying a very long nba
01:36career and solidifying his spot as an awesome coach i mean i mean in a way all of a sudden
01:43now the tenure at sac carnally everything kind of now feels more legitimized there so that to me is
01:49is the story of the knicks again i know everybody wants it to be this one-man show i know
01:53it was in
01:54game five on the offensive side but i think the knicks kind of shown that they were a very well
02:01put
02:01together team who finally realized their potential on the spurs side of it they were too young they were
02:11not ready and i think that should uh sam presti and sga should get back in front of the mirror
02:17to figure out how they allowed that team to beat them in a game seven on their home floor i'm
02:22not
02:22giving the spurs an excuse they absolutely oh yes they could have won all of the games they lost they
02:29also lost all of those games and it they weren't ready to break through that ceiling which was
02:38absolutely a part of handicapping this series and making a pick heading into this series nobody who
02:44picked the spurs gets to go oh but look they could have you should have factored in the trust at
02:51this
02:51level that the spurs to me hadn't built up
02:54you
02:54you
