Jalen Brunson’s extension helps Knicks to keep Mikal Bridges long term - Bontemps | SportsCenter 

Anything he says I trust. No agenda behind it. Great humble guy

Mot superstars win while getting their max though

@@SonnyK248 Lebron, Wade, and Bosh all took less to sign with Miami. KD gave a discount when he signed with Golden State so they could keep Iguodala and Livingston. Steph was making $11 million when he won his first championship in 2015. Every Spurs star was playing for less than max when they won in 2014. That accounts for 6 out of the last 11 championships. Also, Jalen did technically sign for his max. He just signed a year earlier, when his max is lower than it would be a year from now.

@@peteranzano267 can’t really use the Steph one 😂 he was worth 11 mill when he signed that deal. And KD signed for the max in Golden State. Golden State obliterated the salary cap to keep all their guys, So that takes 4 rings off the table. And it ain’t like people don’t complain incessantly about the Miami big 3 and their accomplishments 😂 on The Spurs, only Tim Duncan was even worth a max contract. And they didn’t have max contracts in 2003 but when Tim signed his deal that year it was one of the biggest in NBA history. He was making the same money as Kobe and that was a seven year deal so that covers a lot of his team rings and took him up to 34 years old which at the time wouldn’t have even made him eligible for a max. But whatever. The point I was making was Giannis, Jokic, SGA, Luka, Tatum, Ant you name it, are all contending while earning the max. They ain’t leaving money on the table so that they can get an advantage 👌 Also he’s just dumb for doing it. New York is the biggest market in basketball. It’s them that should be sacrificing money not Brunson. Pay him 270 in a year and if they have to pay through the nose in luxury tax so be it. They’ll still be making billions over the coming decades but his career is short.

@@SonnyK248 KD absolutely did not sign for the max

He won’t if I’m around

Or his white queen

@@DaYungSinChrgsame bro ppl gona call cap but it’s $ well spent, could be a once in a lifetime opportunity

If he do t leave the 113 million it would not matter if he had to pay

Christ is King! Jesus loves you! God bless! Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Iggy Azalea is the queen now?

Already got the blue jersey, now I need the white

Brunson deserves that, not you.

Knicks will not win anything Bridges is role player not a star

@@MangoTroubles-007 why the hate? He’s probably one of the most elite role players if he is. The Knicks don’t need him to score 20+ every game, him and OG are the lockdowns wings, and the Knicks have more than enough offense firepower to cover if he doesn’t.

@@MangoTroubles-007 # Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Jalen Brunson's exceptional skills and talent on the basketball court have certainly been impressive. His ability to lead the team and make crucial plays has been a key factor in his success. It's clear that his dedication and hard work have paid off, and he continues to be a valuable asset to the team. It's always inspiring to see athletes like Jalen Brunson excel in their sport, and we look forward to witnessing more of his amazing performances in the future.

Uh what? Did you forget Tom Brady exists?

@@jrizzle555 People just say shyt bro

LeBron took a pay cut when he went Miami to win first and then get the bag later in retirement,brunson has the right mindset of a winner

Stop speaking on sports man, players do this all the time😂😂😂. Shohei Othani is literally getting paid only 2 million a year for ten years. Like stop glazing with those false accusations.

Timmy and dirk have been taking pay cuts their whole careers to add players. It’s nothing new but it’s rare

More than.

This ain't the Yankees or even the Giants. It is not a winning organization. I would not confuse Dolan for Steinbrenner.

Tbh if he wins one after this he passing Eli and I LOVE Eli. Jeter is one of those immortals, all the rings and never leaving. Eli deserved more. But nobody has done with Jalen has done. He pulls this off he is IMMORTAL.

Both Bridges and Randle are soon eligible for their own extensions. And Brunson has set the model -- everyone take a little less than you deserve, but the core group stays together, the front office still has flexibliity, and the team wins overall. It's playing chess in the long term. Brilliant.

@@benaustin6361 Mikal Bridges already rumored to be following suit next year and taking less.

No you wouldn’t

If he was an MVP level talent he wouldn't have to take less than his peers in order to get more help than them 🤦‍♂

@@SonnyK248 That's dumb. Lebron did the same to get Chris Bosh on the Heat. Magic did the same for the Lakers. You're suffering from being a jealous hater. Just watch the ESPN report as the go down the list of greats who made similar sacrifices in the NBA, NFL and MLB. To try and twist this into a negative is a clear sign of your insecurity about your own fav team. Take care!

@@arrellehnisrael8229 I don't care about New York dude trust me I was just making an objective point 😂 And I agree Lebron took less to get Wade and Bosh. It's why no one respects those rings he won in Miami dude 😂 Also didn't Magic sign the biggest contract in sports history in his sophomore season? There wasn't even a salary cap back then 🤣

@SonnyK248 Magic took a pay cut to acquire Terry Teagle. I know my sports history because I lived it. Magic Johnson is an MVP who took a pay cut for his team's benefit. This proves you're jealous and insecure about your team. But thanks for replying!

@@SonnyK248 you keep hitting the smiley face button by accident.

I’m buying property on Brunson Blvd

Huh?

That’s what it cost when we only had 17 wins bro

The 4 year $323 Million dollar extensions would mean he'd get paid 80 MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR🤯🤯🤯

Or iggy

Even without it NYC should make sure he's taken care of. Throw endorsements at him and he should never have to pay for a meal. Make it worth it. That's how a big city should take care of its stars that make sure they give money back. A lot of max players don't seem legit worth their max contracts. But they still get em.

@@ne0n1nja247 Agreed!

James Dolan has already spent the money in his head. JD & the straight shots need the money 😂😂😂

@@jjay__ Ha!

Your naive. Brunson most likely getting paid under the table as this doesn't make sense in the nature of business especially the NBA with how players are treated. He better learn from Nate Robinson on how they did him and his money

@@beastscale1892it makes perfect sense that he can sign early for the next extension that will be triple what this contract is

@bee1979 So wait on money that he should be earning now??? That's perfect sense? These franchises don't honor such agreements but from what I'm hearing Brunson's agent is the son of the GM for the Knicks which might make it different but still shady nonetheless.

@@beastscale1892 He can be paid in other ways, Dirk kept taking cuts in his late career and after he retired, he's been hired as a 'consultant' who gets paid bank despite not actually doing anything.

He's trying to win first LeBron and Tom Brady also did this

@@BingBongNY Well it was his Coach actually.

@@thefishhobbyist5478 I don't know him

​@AustinWilliams-ex9um suckered. No they didn't. They gave up money to get a guaranteed amount instead of pushing the envelope in contract stalls but they never gave up millions in guaranteed dollars.

Or iggy

LeBron and Brady did this so they can win,u just a Knicks hater,he gonna get that extension when he retires a Knicks u goofy lmao

@@BingBongNYrelax, nothing he said meant he hated on the Knicks.

@@messiahisaiah7521 he's mad he didn't take money away from the rest of his teammates to win and make that money back when he retires a Knicks so yea he's hating because this helps everyone in the organization,this should be commended

Yeah he didn't seem to notice how IT4 situation played out.

Iggy got him 😂😂😂

He's going to Lakers in 2

Plus I'm pretty sure he will never have to pay for anything in New York ever again. Like he could walk in any restaurant or bar, eat and drink, then leave without paying lol

His dad is very wealthy, ex NBA player

@@jjay__ you don’t think I know this and that his dad is also a coach on the knicks hence why he went there in the first place move around kiddo.

U wish

He'll be a laker soon

@@2408spydah the Knicks are a disaster in the front office and ownership. They’ll put a bunch of nobody’s on the bench. And the team will fold in the first round as usual.

@@TheTruthIsBlurred suuure

Who's everybody?

@@BingBongNY everybody that sign for a new deal franz from the magic just got 200 plus deal

@@tdkdsports1512 nobody somebody I think u just like talking shyt honestly like most RU-vid trolls do

@AustinWilliams-ex9um you seem like the 🧌 I can name 5 players that got 200 plus deal this season..
