You should
Na this was gangster right here thanks guys now me and the homes can go back and forth
Jalen Brunson's success on the New York Knicks is very well deserved. Great for the city and fans. Jalen Brunson's parents did a great job raising him.
That name is super familiar, KD swagger , cool name
@@sheneedsyrruupThank you!
His father is on the goddamn staff. Brunson was definitely coming to nye
@@IamnotJokic Rick Brunson was on Tom Thibodeau's staff in Minnesota FYI.
Jalen Brunson is the man in NYC and we’re loving every second of it.
EVERY F’N SECOND!!!
Just hope Tibbs doesn't run him into the ground.
Love seeing Jalen get all the deserved love. Wish they asked him more Knicks related questions but great interview
Jalen,.. humble, result driven, respectful, self reflective, grounded.. So happy to have him!!!
NY legend already
Jalen Brunson may not look like your typical NBA Star, short, not overly fast or quick, but the skill level is ridiculous, I watch this Man in the post dominate with strictly footwork, he's a Dawg and a hell of a competitor!
He not that short bruh dont let the media brainwash you he is 6’2 and a PG.. you know how many other PGs that the media and other ppl call superstars and drool over?? You do know they r the same size as Brunson right???? How tall do you think spida is??? How about curry??? How about kyrie Irving?? How about ja morant??? I can go on and on.. and most of those guys are toothpicks and skinny.. Brunson is built big and calves are bigger then a dinosaur
Yes, he is and we're glad to have him.
He also a born winner (multiple championships in HS and College) and has a great mentality that rubs onto other players when he’s on the court. Without a winning mentality skills doesn’t matter
@@aidananimation123 "Without a winning mentality, skills don't matter." THAT was a mic drop🎤 statement. You need to coin it and sell T-Shirts! 😃 I'm going to add that to my book.
@@carmine_ this must be Jalens burner account no need to get angry, facts are facts 6'3 and under is small going up against 6-8 through 7 ft players NO KNOCK ON JB, didn't you read the comment, for a 6'0 guard to dominate off footwork and brains is incredible, Isiah Thomas and Allen Iverson dominated at their short heights it's okay this is a compliment to JB's work!
Now that JB is getting the exposure he deserves, the stars will now come to the Knicks. The Knicks are no longer to be laughed at as an organization. Great interview.
Credit to Thibs & Randle for building the base and defense too
Brunson is literally the Best knicks FA signing ever.
Villanova winning those 2 national titles were so special man 🤧🔥 especially 2016 game.
Knicks MVP
Bro told Jordan, "Naw, you'll mess it up" l😂😂😂. As a knicks fan, this brings a smile to my face.
Facts
He got that dog in him. That's a victory if I'm a Knicks fan.
It was fate all along
Good to see the national media picking up Brunson. It’s great to see him becoming a big name before our eyes & it’s well deserved. Can’t wait to see him bring a chip to NY. He is the Knicks Derek Jeter. 🧡💙
Jeter was home grown and drafted by us but I hear you . He’s a stand up guy that gives off nothing but work, and win vibes. I love it
@@werkynprogres Jeter was from Michigan!
I remember this young man in high school playing a basketball playoff game with the flu, and he scored like 50 points! I remember telling him I hoped he’d be sick for the next playoff game😅 He was and still is the sweetest, smartest, and humble kid I remember! Mom, Dad did an amazing job with both Children❤
J Brunson is a real one!!
Great interview.....JB is very relaxed and engaging
This man’s buckets are all BUCKETS. No gimmicks, no corny shit, just pure skill
Thank you mavs for not paying that man 😂😂
Brunson future MVP
It is one of our better free agent pickups we've had. His footwork and his ability to get to the basket is crazy. Being Named an allstar well deserved player.
You can just see this guy is golden.. all around good dude
We finally have a legit hero to lead the charge, since Pat Ewing. Good GAWD its been a long time!
Damn, Melo disrespect is vicious.
Amare "The Knicks are back" Stoudemire with Gallo, Wilson, Felton could have done it but injury and the arrival of Melo prevented it
@august6281 yea, I like to think that too, but I think Amare would've gotten hurt and then things would've spiraled down hill from there. Melo didn't exactly inspire hope in me. The only charge he was leading was the Carmelo Anthony charge. I still rooted for him though cuz I didn't have a choice, he was still a Knick afterall.
@@theonewhoisbetterthanyou3570Yeah but Melo didnt have a legit squad to lead. 2013 second best offensive player was JR Smith… Lebron had Kyrie, KLove THEN jr smith
JALEN HIMSON
I can be proud of my team bc of this man no star wanted to come to ny but this guy came and lifted up the team
Needed this!!!!! 🧡💙🧡💙🧡
Glad that Jalen got to get his 💐flowers💐 from real ones!!! That was 🎯💯 @allthesmoke💙
Jalen Brunson is HIM and the masterpiece of NYC!
Cool interview he seems very humble and chill I’m definitely checking for the Knicks plus I was a huge Melo fan 💪🏽💯
Thats my guy. Go knicks
Like father like son is a true definition of what Jalen is 👏🏼❤️🖤💯 #AllThe💨
Finally 💪🏾💪🏾!!! Let’s go Knickstape
Knicks Nationwide
Hopefully we can get a W tonight let’s go Knicks
Man Jabari Parker was a monster. Had melo and Beasleys style just a lil more athletic.
Favorite episode so far. Awesome episode!!
Waiving off the mj signature is crazy
King of NY 👑
I’m rooting for Brunson. I started watching the Knicks when his pops was on the team
Great interview ✨👑✨
Great interview 🔥
I met Jalen not too long ago and he was an absolute class act, happy to see him succeed.
Been waiting for this LFG!
Best knick since Ewing
If you're from New York, go buy a Jalen Brunson Jersey NOW. Make it clear to the knicks org we want to get behind this guy!
Brunson is a true leader and game general hope he stays in New York for years to come
It's funny bc when brunson signed, i posted a comment on the new york post website that theyd love him there and he was a winner everywhere he went and i got a lot of hate from new York fans. I tried to explain he won at villanova and dallas and just knew how to play hard and win. I still get emails that somebody commented on that old post of people saying how right i was and they love JB.
jalen brunson sounds exactly like amon ra st. brown
42:32 aye stak them cookies go crazy😂💯
We in this keep it up bros
His father is on the goddamn staff. Brunson was definitely coming to nyc
DUDE WAS LIT GIVING THE DOUBLE MIDDLE FINGER SALUTE.
GREAT TO SEE YOU MATT BARNES MY HERO 🦸♂️ ALSO STEPHEN JACKSON
A born winner
As a Knicks fan Brunson has brought back something that has been missing for a while.
Knicks Nation Stand Up... BUNG !!! 💯🎯🗣️🔥😁🟠🔵
I like that seton hall s/o at the end lmao
Delta Biscoffs 🤣😭 Stack crazy man
Ngl I was skeptical about us signing him to his price tag but now he's a bargain. My favorite Knick since Melo
.. thats nothing in today’s NBA Jaylen Brown just got 300 million 😂
I know he's glad he wasn't a first round pick .
Facts.
Bro!!! Jack is my new best friend!!! Nobody knows about the Biscoff cookies!! Absolute 🔥 🔥🔥
I think Jalen Brunson is Knicks destiny, this was meant to happen, too many pieces are falling together to fast for this to be luck or coincidence, more like synchronicity & manifestation!
So glad to have him as a Knick. He's such a talent but he's the best fucking dude. No surprise our mentality in the locker room has improved so much. Haven't had a leader like him in forever.
Yes! Yes! Yes! JB is already my favorite player! #knicks
One of my favorite players, he just a winner…that Villanova team will go down in history
MVP
Jalen is just a hooper period. Hes a hooping craftsman. Hes unguardable... he will absolutely cook big dudes in the post! Hahaha with that god level footwork and hes plays better in big moments.
It’s always BEER THIRTY (5:30) somewhere, your good MATT B., used to drink as early as 6:00am 😢🎉
JB ‼️ legooo Knicks with u Hart OG and Randle we going all the way 🏆
"I do it in real life" lmao
Great interview. Yo Stack they sell the bischoffs at Walmart I keep a stash
Illinois high school state tourney almost always has serious talent. D Rose, Okafor, Jabari(Kendrick Nunn on the same team…) , and Brunson were all memorable. Brunson was damn near a 1 man team tho. Was so happy to see him win it his sr year after losing to stacked Chicago teams every other year.
He's a winner. Glad he finally made the All Star team.
“School, basketball, and your social life, you gotta pick 2 of 3” damn that’s fire more kids need to hear that
He still managed to marry his H.S. Sweetheart and that she is! \V/
🔥🔥🔥
My MFn PG!!
how ironic my fellow KNICKS fans fasted & prayed and lamented in sack cloth and ashes for bringing in a SuperStar to the Team, and behold Jalen Marquis Brunson became that SuperStar before our very eyes. 😁
Jalen Brunson is not even thinking about Dallas. The Knicks gave him, double the money, gave him his own team, and the Fame. No one's going to even remember he played there not even himself.
Action Brunson
Time to kill the narrative that players don’t want to play for thibs. 💯
MSG itself is a freaking Electric Atmosphere. I feel like a different and better person after leaving that place every time. (Especially after a Knicks win).
Jalen is the hero gotham city deserves. been a knick fan since his dad played for us. i'm old asf
As a loooong suffering Knicks fan we finally have a Point God of our own! Orange & Blue Skies!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾
Jalen, it’s Scalinatella. And yes, great place. Il Postino is their other restaurant, and it’s equally great.
Jalen Brunson aka The truth
Best Knicks point guard since Walt Frazier
#KnicksNationNoMatterWhat
Best point guard in the league knicks rule all
Jalen built for NY and Coach Tibs 😂
Watching yall drink Coors made me realize they never drink alcohol in the commercials.
JB is STILL underrated. Casuals are waking up but they still hating because he got NEW YORK across the chest.
Mavs fan I root for Brunson his run here was storybook. My dream Fjnals match up this generation of players
Anyone know the beat on intro ?
Yo I need this intro music bud whats the name
Complaining that ur dad was in the NBA is fkn crazy and I'm a knicks fan 😂
Yes, I have Delta Frequent Flyer Miles and Diabetes, all because of those Delta Cookies.
Bro the biscoff cookies! Use those in banana pudding instead of the wafers and thank me later.
Josh Hart currently leads the league in technical fouls. Only right you have him on “All The Smoke” 🤷♂️🤣
I rock with Brunson. I’m a long time rocket fan but fuck it go knicks this year ‘
Let’s go knicks!!!! Brunson is an MVP if you know you know.. see 1 send 1
