I watched how he took the leadership on those games and it seems like they trust Brunson so much for every decision he is making on every game in this playoffs, since it is working and they're beating strong opponents like the Pacers, it's better be that way, let him be the leader and let him play his game on his own way but honestly, I want to see how will they manage to play against the Pacers without those two and if they still manage to win, then whoever wins from the series of Celtics and Cavs, they're on trouble with the Knicks for sure.
Brunson is definitely keeping up with the Knicks' expectations, and it would be strange if they didn't trust him and let him realize his potential on the court. However, it's worth noting that if a team relies on just one player, it's not the best strategy, and it's risky, especially in the playoffs. I mean, if Brunson gets injured, the Knicks will be a helpless team.
I mean if anytime loses their best player they pretty much are done. Dallas loses Luka, minn loses edwards, Boston with Tatum, cavs with spida, Denver jokic. All of those teams are going straight home without those players. That's not a hot take. With that being said knicks have to rely on brunson he was fourth in the league in scoring. Why would they change the way they play that got them here?
