Has Jalen Brunson Already Passed Jeter and Eli in New York?

The Knicks are NBA champions, and Jalen Brunson’s place in New York sports history is suddenly the debate of the city. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to Brunson delivering the kind of moment Knicks fans waited generations to see, then ask how far one championship can carry him among New York’s most beloved sports figures. The conversation turns into a passionate climb up the New York icon ladder, with Brunson compared to Tiki, Curtis Martin, Alex Rodriguez, Henrik Lundqvist, Patrick Ewing, Mike Piazza, Mark Messier, Eli Manning and Derek Jeter. Evan argues that leading the Knicks to a title carries a rare weight in this city, while Tiki and the crew push back with points about longevity, legacy, playoff greatness and what it really means to become a New York legend.
