Make no bones about it that Jalen is knick royalty whose number will hang from the rafters and will one day be inducted into the Basketball HOF.
Make two in a row and he will for sure be in rare air. Love this guy and if knicks can win 60 games and Wemby don't, perhaps close as it may be Jalen could get an MVP!

Recent bias and seeing the world in orange and blue color glasses is a wonderful thing. Jalen is likable on and off the court and a great testament to hard work and preserverence! Love this guy.

But........Semantics aside the greatest since MJ? Just off the top of my bald head I'd have to put guys with more than one MVP since Jordan and has Finals MVP, as well as one or more ring:

Durant
Jokic
Shai
Giannis
That Curry kid
Kobe

Now, im not saying one has to like any of these guys and lord knows Durant, Kobe and Lebron have their detractors but can't deny the validity of their careers. Kobe has but one MVP but the 4 rings with 2 Finals MVP has to weigh in.

Jalen's career still has years to go and perhaps he moves up the ladder in many ways. By itself his playoff performance ranks as one of the greatest of all time and by no means take his stature or what he has done for granted. He has earned a place in the conversation. Ahead of MVP Dirk and KG. For sure ahead of chipless Westbrook and Harden whom both do have MVP.

I wasn’t around for Willis but my dad speaks fondly of how good He was and Frazier… what a travesty it was that we couldn’t get Ewing a ring as a player I still remember Charles smith missing those layups .Stark's throwing up bricks vs the rockets .

If only we had a competent GM back then to build a better team around him . Ewing was a shell of himself by the time we had spree, Houston and Camby

I still think if he didn’t get hurt we would have put up a better fight in 99. Camby would have shut down young Duncan . Ewing always was more talented than David Robinson.

Our 27 year revenge was sweet !

When it comes to Brunson being the closest player to dominating like MJ that’s In my opinion he’s the most dominant winner I’ve seen since MJ . It’s like in the 90’s there were more talented teams than the bulls but they didn’t have jordan… I think we will see the same thing with Brunson. Phillys got better but at the end of the day they still don’t have Brunson or the depth/chemistry we have .

At the end of the day the more I think about it the more I think we are in for a dynasty with JB !

Also JB should have been considered for this past MVP total robbery because of flopping SGA . But this team didn’t tap into its full potential till game 4 vs the hawks as soon as that happened the Knicks are now every other teams worst nightmare and we are just getting started!
