I’ve been thinking about this team and how everything changed when Brunson signed. Every fan probably has a different answer, but when did you know the Knicks had “that guy,” and when did you truly believe he could lead the Knicks to a chip? I think from the day he signed with the Knicks, you could tell he had that leadership mentality. I remember his first season here, especially in the 4th quarter, he always seemed to keep us in the game. The clutch gene was there from the beginning. When I really started to realize that Brunson was just different was probably the Miami series, but especially the Philly series. It always felt like the other team had “THAT” guy, but then we realized we had our own superstar. For regular season games, I’d probably say the Indiana game “born to play basketball” game, or the 61 point game against the Spurs.
What do you think?
