So just over 50 people contributed to the Knicks’ poll I posted yesterday. Here are the results:
Obviously we’re all a bit biased towards the Knicks winning, and if I had to choose one to disagree with, it’s Brunson hitting the game winning shot. I feel like the 2026 playoff juggernaut Knicks is based more on a team effort. That no one player is the Knicks’ savior, and it requires all the players operating at high efficiency to win. Yes Brunson is our best pure scorer, but I think when it comes down to it, it’ll be someone else who hits the big shot (see: Horry, Robert). And I feel like that person will be OG.
