MVP of the night | Jalen Brunson, the indispensable boss of the Knicks
Tom Thibodeau is no longer around, but Mike Brown also quickly realized that it is difficult without him Jalen Brunson. However, the coach wanted to limit the playing time of his leader, but it is inconvenient…
“We try to rest him as long as possible”explains the coach. “But if we feel that the game is slipping away, my job is to help the team win in the best possible way… When I know we are in a difficult situation that we have to get out of, I have to get us back on our feet. I tried to leave him on the bench as long as possible, but the time came when we had to go to the match.”
With a Karl-Anthony Towns almost silently (2 points to 1/5), Jalen Brunson was thus mobilized for 38 minutes face or heatfor his season high (47 points on 15/26, 8 assists) and his record at Madison Square Garden!
“Again, the answer was Jalen”
Obviously, he was entitled to “MVP!” MVP” from Knicks fans, since he is the boss of his team.
“Again, the answer was Jalen”summarized by Mike Brown. “We struggled a little bit offensively, and in those moments you want to have a league MVP on your team. Let him score 47 points. … He can do that, and that’s what MVPs are supposed to do on nights like this.”
For some time now, the coach has not missed an opportunity to boost the MVP campaign his player, but we have to admit that we can hardly do more “valuable” than Jalen Branson for the Knicks…
“He’s an exceptional player. I think we all know that.”concludes his teammate, Karl-Anthony Towns. “And he doesn’t really surprise you when he pulls off nights like that.” »
