The New York Knicks have built a competent team that has a chance to win the Larry O'Brien Trophy this season. Most of the credit goes to Leon Rose, the team's president of basketball operations.
Remember those long breaks between the second and third rounds, then the Conference Finals and the Finals? Having an extra day of rest between Games 2 and 3 felt like twice as long to me.
The New York Knicks were never going to win the trade. Not in November. Not in December. Not in January. Not in April or May. Simply put, Mikal Bridges would forever need to carry the weight of landing in Manhattan by way of five draft picks sent across the bridge to Brooklyn.
How many of the NBA players to average at least 20 points and 10 rebounds-per-game in at least five seasons can you name in five minutes?
Mikal Bridges has been here before and knows not to celebrate just yet. Bridges was a key piece for a 2021 Phoenix Suns team on the verge of glory in the NBA Finals against the Milwaukee Bucks.
As an NBA fan, it hits different when a team's best player is a guy the franchise nurtured from the very start. There's a greater attachment to stars who have been there since the start, who have bled the team's colors since the start of their careers.

Due to increased security with President Donald Trump set to be in attendance, there will be no watch party outside of Madison Square Garden for Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Monday night, the New York Police Department announced Sunday afternoon.
Mikal Bridges has been on both sides of an NBA Finals turnaround, which is why the Knicks veteran isn’t ready to celebrate a 2-0 series lead. Bridges was a member of the Suns team that won the first two games of the 2021 Finals before dropping four straight to the Bucks.
If an NBA player ends a game with 30 points, that's generally a great night. 40 points is fantastic, and 50 points is an event. That's especially true when that type of scoring outburst comes from an unexpected source.

The loudest I’ve ever heard Knicks fans at Madison Square Garden was May 16, 1997. Game 6, Knicks vs. Heat. 48 hours earlier, P.J.
