Brunson's 19-point reversal, the rise of the new king of New York, and the signing of a 300 million super cap salary is expected
The Knicks defeated the Pacers 109-105 on the road, and after this victory, the Knicks are in 32-17 in the Eastern Conference and have a chance to win the championship. The Knicks' confidence comes from Brunson, their main players Anunoby, Robinson, Randle missed three games, Hatten, Achuwa, Joe Hart, and the Knicks with Sika at the helm, and Harry Burton, the Knicks' Marbury defeated Marbury, which is a 9-game victory! After this ball, the Knicks' nine-game win looks promising.
The course of this game can be described as tortuous, in the first quarter Sika and Toppin attacked back-to-back in the first quarter, giving the Knicks a 32-26 advantage, in the second quarter, the Pacers trio went on a big kill to take a 15-point advantage, but Brunson's scoring and whistle scoring allowed the Knicks to lose to the Knicks by only 7 points at 51-58, thanks to Brunson's explosion in the second half, the team did not collapse. In the third quarter, the two teams had offense and defense against each other, but the Knicks had Brunson to lead the team, and Hart also had an open cut, but the most stable morale was Brunson, who hit several three-point shots, allowing the Knicks to keep the lead, and in the fourth quarter, Divinson hit the opponent with a three-pointer, and then Brunson staged a wonderful game, hitting three three-pointers in a row, allowing the Knicks to overtake, and finally playing a 2+1 point difference, and the Pacers created a game after Brunson's two free throws.
Brunson scored 40 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist on 30-of-15 shooting, including 3-of-6 and 9-of-11 free throws, while Brunson didn't organize the offense, but scored, and if Brunson hadn't scored 40+, the Knicks would have lost this game. Haliburton made 6 of 10 shots, scored 15 points and 5 assists, Haliburton only played 22 minutes because of his limited playing time, although Haliburton played well, but Brunson completely suppressed the opponent. At this year's All-Star Game, Haliburton was considered the best playmaker in the East, while Brunson was just an alternate point guard in the Eastern Conference. Now, Brunson is showing the world that he's the best first baseman in the East with his impressive performance.
Brunson was also the best playmaker of the season: Brunson had 45 points, five rebounds and four assists against the Bucks on November 4; On December 1, against Detroit, Brunson had 42, 6 rebounds and 8 assists. Brunson scored 50+6+9 assists against Phoenix on December 16; Brunson had 41 points, eight rebounds and eight assists against Washington on Jan. 19; On January 21, against the Raptors, Brunson still scored 40 points, 5 rebounds, and 9 assists, while Brunson also scored 40+ against the Pacers today. The Knicks are an ordinary team with no star players, and the reason why the Knicks were able to make it to the top three in the Eastern Conference is entirely because of Brunson's excellent play. Today, Brunson's score is +4, and the Knicks have a 14-2 record in January, while Brunson has a whopping 256 losses in a single month, ranking second in the league. Now the Knicks are Brunson's home court, he is the boss of New York, Anunoby and Randle are at most Brunson's vice generals, they don't have Brunson's ability to pick one out of a thousand, plus DiVincenzo, who is good at defense, can persuade Brunson's men to eliminate Brunson, and the Knicks can build a team centered on Brandon, so their potential is too great.
This season is Brunson's first All-Star game, and there are plenty of other opportunities to come, with the Knicks showing great potential after signing Anunoby, and the Knicks looking to trade to improve their core players to give Brunson more room to play with the Knicks, and he can also show his talent in the playoffs or in the Finals. Brunson signed a 4-year 1. with the Knicks in 20220.4 billion US dollars in free agent contract, after 4 years, he will receive an annual salary of 26.4 million US dollars, and next season will receive an annual salary of 24.9 million US dollars, and if Brunson renews with the Knicks this summer, then he will receive a whopping 249.04 million 4 years 1With an annual salary of 56 million dollars, Brunson feels 4 years 156 million dollars is too little, and he has the guts to do it! In the summer of the 25-year-old, Brunson could have voluntarily waived the contract, and the Knicks should have signed him for a five-year, $300 million extension.
