Jalen Brunson Slaps Spike Lee's Hand And Ignores Fat Joe In Viral Game 6 Video

This is not to be mistaken as a hostile act, as Fat Joe and Spike Lee hail Jalen Brunson among the Knicks' all-time greats. However, Brunson has the funniest dynamics with everyone in and around the team, like his banter with Josh Hart. Joe and Lee have done nothing to trigger or piss Brunson off. Therefore, while Brunson may not have spoken to the duo, he likely does not hold any hostility against them.

What Do Spike Lee And Fat Joe Think About Jalen Brunson?

Spike Lee and Fat Joe have been very vocal as Knicks fans over several years before Jalen Brunson even joined the team. However, once Brunson did join the team, they had nothing but praise for the star guard. Last year, Joe even hailed Brunson as one of the greatest Knicks players of all time. 

"I told y’all Jalen Brunson might be the greatest Knick of all time", he wrote on social media. This was right after Brunson dropped 43 points in Game 1 of last season's Eastern Conference second-round series with the Pacers.

Spike Lee, however, has been vocal about Brunson more recently. He appeared on First Take with Stephen A. Smith and expressed his feelings on the Knicks' star.

“Willis [Reed], [Walt] Clyde [Frazier], Bernard King for the time he was there, Carmelo [Anthony], yeah, I think he’s our guy... He’s putting the whole team on his shoulders," Spike said.

How Did Jalen Brunson And The Knicks Perform In Game 6?

Brunson and the Knicks came out swinging in Game 6 to close out the series at Madison Square Garden and avoid a Game 7 in Boston. They blew the game wide open in the first half as they ended it with a 27-point lead. All six of their main players (starters and sixth man) had double-digit scoring, while four of their five starters had 20+ points. Brunson and OG Anunoby led all scorers with 23 points each, while Mikal Bridges had 22 points and Karl-Anthony Towns had 21 points.

Heading into their series with the Pacers, the Knicks will have a chip on their shoulder to seek revenge for how the Pacers eliminated them from the Playoffs last season. A must-watch series for all spectators and basketball fans.
