Not taking anything away from Brunson and the Knicks’ incredible 2026 Finals championship run, but KD’s Game 5 (49-17-10) and Game 7 (48 pts) performances in 2021 remain the highest individual peaks we’ve seen from any New York player (Knicks or Nets) in the playoffs.

Hurts me so much to have fallen in the lottery and see the Knicks play like this on the way to a sweep

.@Flighty needs to add whether flight is equipped with @Starlink. I would seriously prioritize fast internet if I’m working on the flight.
