Episode Details

Jalen Brunson’s historic championship run with the Knicks came after a jaw-dropping $100M pay cut in 2024 — a sacrifice that gave New York the flexibility to build a title-winning roster. Now, Draymond Green, fresh off his own Warriors deal, calls the move a mistake, citing how stars like Curry and Thompson got paid big while winning in Golden State. But Brunson’s teammates, like Josh Hart, fired back with pride, defending the sacrifice and even subtly jabbing at Donovan Mitchell’s team to be more aggressive. The debate? It’s not just about money — it’s about loyalty, sacrifice, and what it takes to win in the NBA’s biggest markets.
