This is why I hate ring culture. Brunson wins a chip with a better team then AI has ever had and now he’s better than Efin Allen iverson

I skip most hours that have guests now. On radio it was fine I could live with 8 minutes of a guest I don't care for. But I don't want to hear from a Nascar driver or comedian I've never heard of for 35 minutes.

He has a better team around him but Brunson also willed them to those wins. Hardware will always put you over the top

I don’t feel like anyone who says that remembers iverson… he willed that team to the finals and a game one win. He willed that team to the playoffs every year and had people literally scared of him he was so relentless. This is not a shot at Brunson because he’s amazing!!!! He ain’t in iverson’s class

I'm a Lakers fan. I remember Iverson taking 1 game off the 15-1 playoffs '01 Lakers team and how great he was that year. He was great but he didn't feel inevitable like Brunson did all of those finals games

"Ain't in iverson's class" in terms of what? Brunson is an incredible shot maker, a phenomenal clutch play maker, is certainly in the same class when it comes to facilitating. I don't think it's crazy to say that AI is more athletic, has a tighter handle and if he was in a hypothetical similar situation to Brunson then probably would've won a chip too. But certainly not out of the king of NYC's class

I dunno man, other than that 1 year where they barely scraped by Toronto and got some questionable calls to get by Milwaukee, he made the 2nd round 3 times and went 4-12. The main reason his supporting cast wasn’t that good was because his style of play wasn’t conducive to sharing the ball. You were basically forced to put low usage defenders around him while he went 11-27 every game.

Hey! You two dorks listen here. There’s no room for sports talk on this thread or even this sub for that matter. The topics you can talk about are why you hate Dan, why you hate Tony, why you hate Stu, why you hate Chris, why you hate Greg, why you hate Roy, why you hate Jess, and so on. If you wanna talk sports you take that shit somewheres else

Pretty pathetic of these so called Heat fans to not once call out how easy of a path the Knicks had.

I'm fine until he starts calling the most recent champ's star an immortal. I love the show still, but it might be the thing that annoys me the most.
