Brunson has been playing well but is getting a different whistle to everyone else except maybe SGA.

When talent fails you or is lacking, you need grit. Some don't believe in it 'cause it can't be measured. But you know a team has it when you see it.

Bucks already had DiVincenzo on their roster. Warriors too. Knicks really hit gold with him and Brunson. Josh Hart too. All on below market deals.

Absolutely Grit and like to add, truly playing "for each other"

Tatum Brown + White? as Boston's top 3 are definitely more talented than Brunson, Hart and D-Chenzo and yet??? Boston also has the better supporting cast.. So everyone can reach their own conclusions from here.

Both teams leaving it all out on the floor! C’s could learn a thing or two from the effort in this Pacers Knicks game. Insane

Thibs wasted a challenge to give Haliburton a much needed breather. Clearly went off Brunson's hand. Good job, Coach!

Brunson has been phenomenal.

Nembhard clutch?

WOW what a game.

Nembhard makes only two baskets - both in crunch time
