Why Jalen Brunson Can NEVER Be An NBA Superstar 

Everyone saying Gilbert can say this because he was better than Brunson 😂 Brunson now has 4 40+ point playoff games, in his last 4 games…. He had 39 the game before this streak Gilbert had 1 40+ point playoff game his whole career 😂😂😂 man won ONE playoff series his whole career, against a team whose leading scorer was… Kirk Hinrich They aren’t comparable

Who's here after Brunson just dropped 42? 😂😂😂

The Brunson disrespect is crazy!

Jalen is not boring. The footwork and his mindset is beautiful to watch for true fans of the sport

Brunson giving everyone on that couch a bucket they hating...

Brunson just scored 40 for the 4th time in a row in the playoffs. Stop the hate! This is why they don’t let players vote for anything.

Jalen Brunson had a hof college career ion why they acting like his talents / skill came overnight

Gilbert said Brunson came in the league an unknown? After winning national chips at Nova? Cmon man

Everybody looking down at the floor after hearing that question said it all 🤣

chris paul can be a superstar but Brunson can't is wild

Better than any on this panel EVER was. More clutch. 100% more reliable. They could score but never rose above pack like Brunson. Not in this lifetime.

Wtf is arenas talking about? Curry had to win rings to become a superstar? He won a league mvp the same year he won his first ring as the best player on his team and almost won the finals mvp…..ALL of that made him a superstar. Wtf do gilbert be talking about? Did rings make durant a superstar? Westbrook? Kevin garnett? Jokic? Giannis? Tmac? Harden? I swear gilbert say the dumbest shit on here and no one checks him. Shit is becoming unbearable.

How yall saying Ant is a superstar but Brunson isn't. He just beat last years MVP and averaged damn near 40.

Hell nah. Brunson is a superstar. Dude is almost unstoppable.

Brunson last 3 years in the league is better than Gilbert whole career

Gilbert letting that 60 he dropped on Kobe getting to his head

Funny how Brunson just dropped 43 against Indy rn lol. Gilbert has been embarrassing himself lately

He will be a superstar playing in NYC. Whether he’s boring or not, playing for the Knicks gives lots of attention. Like B Jennings said, “he got that New York jersey on”

They hated on Jesus too 🟧🟦🟧🟦

He’s not a superstar because the media isn’t a moral of ethic culture. The media looks for fake circumstances and looks for certain players to over hype and overrate. Then when you get a true point guard and a true star like Jaylin, they find things to nitpick that has nothing to do with the game. So the only people who think Jaylen is in a superstar is the video whom we never respected anyways in the first place.

BJ didnt think he was a superstar until mccants reminded him how similar they are

Gilbert should never talk about Hip Hop again

JUST BECAUSE HE IS BEING HIMSELF AND ITS WORKING GOT THEM MAD THEY COULDN'T BE THEMSELVES THEY HAD TO SABOTAGE THEMSELVES FOR A LOOK

These guys do often conflate what a superstar is. By their logic, Duncan was never a superstar. Megastar I may understand is a different breed and involves popularity, but a superstar is simply a top 4-8 player depending on era. Nothing more.

That's how you know people's attention span these days isn't great. Gil cant even listen to "meet the grahams." It isn't that long.

If Brunson isnt a superstar, gilbert was a role player

Mccants wit the durag knowing he bald 🤣

So I’m confused Jalen Brunson can’t be a superstar because he boring l. But they constantly try to make Kobe the 2nd greatest ever and exactly what was his personality cuz it wasn’t a fun one.

He probably doesn't have the shock value and sports media outlets aren't promoting him

So Jason Tatum is a superstar and Bronson is not 😂😂😂 ya tripping

Dude just dropped 43 points, isn’t this his 3rd straight 40 points in the playoffs?

gil should be prasing brunson because he doing the same thing gil did washington but he wasnt a bigger name ethier , he should respect more

He’s doing this without his second best player

He better than all yall bums even gil yes he was only good for three years yall some haters who mad he got a bigger bag and game than all yall EAD

Steph curry was unknown in high school first few years in the nba wasn’t really on the radar. When Steph became an mvp nobody was saying he wasn’t a superstar because he wasn’t popular in high school or because he didn’t have a mixtape with 5m views like Austin rivers in high school he wasn’t a superstar 🤣🤣

Jokic isn't a superstar? These takes just get worse and worse.

Nah yall are bugging with this take! The nerve of Gil to say Meet The Grahams was boring. 🤣😂

He is in nyc . And we run media so . He a superstar if we say he a superstar .. that’s it ..

For the most part I enjoy this podcast but one thing I’ve keyed in on is that the majority of you guys played as guards, in a certain era. Those eras had their own style of play, and the guys that were stars then had a somewhat different skill set in terms of how bucket getting looked. Obviously offense looks different nowadays, you gotta be able to knock down 3s, be it a catch and shoot, step back, or pull up. You have to be able to initiate contact and find angles to finish through it. I feel like because Gil and Brandon played a different style and different tempo they low key hating on Brunson. He’s a better player than both of y’all. A championship pedigree coming into the NBA, and leading the fucking KNICKS deep into the playoffs as a PG, playing without the 2nd best player and few guys that can create their own shot…I respect your opinions but stop hating on less flashy players. Was Tim Duncan not the greatest PF? I love Garnett, McHale, Dirk, but flash alone doesn’t make you a superstar.

I hate the way these folks look at basketball players. It’s always in a silo and that’s not how basketball is played. May be why we have as many rings as the panel

Brunson been answering every doubter so far..

"he got that New York jersey on” Thats like saying Kobe was only in the GOAT conversation cause he played for the Lakers.

Saying jokic not a superstar is crazy asf

They gotta watch him play live. His 40 pts games are so fun to watch

IMO He’s stuck in that same category as Donovan Mitchell. Phenomenal player but not quite a superstar.

The Knicks hate is real smh

Saying jokic isn’t a superstar is CRAZY to me.

Of course Brunson is a superstar, and for multiple reasons: His game. His story, dad being a coach on The Knicks and the footage of him being worked hard by his dad as a kid. His game! His college career. The New York market. His bromance with Josh Hart - the classic straight man and funny guy combo. Stepping up and playing better in the Playoffs. His game!!!

So because Brunson doesn't do clown sh!t he's not a superstar, entertaining? Ok.😂

so they mean brunson is not marketable, point taken. so is Timmy, Hakeem and Jokic. You can be an all time great without being labelled superstar, sounds stupid to me

Players who have scored 40+ points in 4 consecutive games in NBA playoff history: Jerry West (did it 6 straight times) Michael Jordan Bernard King Jalen Brunson

He’s a better player then you ever were that’s all I know 😂😂

You’re not a superstar with no national TV commercials

Bro got 5 playoff games in a row with 40+ idk he looking like a superstar to me, I don’t think they can get the chip this year but once Randle come back I think they got a good chance next year.

People don’t understand the NY athlete has to have a calm , non charismatic demeanor because the city itself imposes its character enough on your notoriety. Jeter, Eli, Ewing, Bernard, Willis, Clyde, Daryl, Doc, Gretzky, they all kept it calm and relatively quiet. You can’t be a hot head and self centered individual like AE, or Kobe, Bird, Mahomes, Kelce, or Morant in NY, you’ll get consumed by the lights, you have to keep it humble and Brunson knew that already. He’s much smarter than people realize.

Brunson has a career better than every player on that couch

That joker shirt mcants got on is tuff

BRANDON SAYING FACTS AS IF HE NOT A DRY PERSONALITY 😂😂😂😂

This Podcast is different, the random background laughter is now a part of the production and i love it

y’all ain’t comprehend what they saying. they not talking about his skill level they said he has a superstar game but him as a person outside of basketball isn’t superstar he’s not marketable at a superstar level

He’s been a superstar

“something wrong with your neck” looool

“If you’re not selling out you’re not selling nothing”

Brunson has accomplished more in 2 years than Gilbert’s whole career

Being a Superstar in the NBA is transcending the NBA game itself the media needs personality to market a story to spin to other brands to get deals they need a face to sell to the people and Brunson does not got that as it seems maybe after the postseason he will get those deals but there is no storyline the NBA got that is good enough to market Brunson at the moment

Nahhhh that’s mad Bias for him to Say, like what Brunson leading playoffs Scoring over 35ppg and got his team to the 2nd Round 2nd Seed he’s crazy for that.Brunson is the best thing that ever Happened to Ny Since the Melo Era

7:43 meet the Grahams was fire🔥 it’s not about the song being slow its about the lyrics 😂😂

Faxxx Mccant nba is entertaining so u gotta show ur personality!! 7:11

Brunson > arenas

And this right here is the issue with the show: you have three guys who never read superstar level trying to debate what a superstar is lol

The silence in the beginning was hilarious 😂

Thinking Brunson isn’t a superstar is insane

Gil is bi-polar. One moment he's a solid, intelligent, and logical basketball expert, then shortly after I can't tell the difference between him, Kim Kardashian or Paris Hilton.

Rashard just on here to annoy.. At this point everybody know he just be saying shit

I think a lot of people don’t understand the definition of “Superstar” … there’s only 2 SuperStars in the league Lebron and Curry … that’s not a disrespect to his game Brunson is an absolute dog but you need more than that to reach superstar status

I’m a New Yorker and Jeremy Lin was marketed better. I’m a little disappointed in the NY media

He's isn't a superstar. There are less than 7 in the game. He isn't one of them

The main reason is because he's not handsome and he's short

Stop the disrespect. There is not one superstar on this couch.

"Give him a Timber---- deal is fkn crazy!!!🤣 The bench knowing everybody is soooo real! We need friends too😂

Brunson is just in a weak defensive era

Braunson not scoring no 35 😂 not today ! Pascal gonna hurt them big time watch.

Players in NBA playoff history with 200+ PTS & 40+ AST in a 5 game span: - Jalen Brunson - Michael Jordan - LeBron James That‘s it. That’s the list.

As a Knicks Fan Superstar Game Role Player Personality

Every time the Knicks got something going nba players always find away to shit on it none of them could’ve played in Ny anyhow would’ve ran outta town

Rather have a superstar game over the superstar name. Bring your game, not your name. Also, anything to discredit a Knicks player. They’d say Kawhi is a superstar tho, I didn’t know what his voice sounded like til he signed with Toronto and heard him laugh.

Jalen Brunson has recorded 30+ points and 5+ assists in five consecutive playoff games. He is now the fifth player in NBA history to accomplish this, joining Oscar Robertson, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and LeBron James.

Gil is gettin outrageous at this point

Note to Gil and his crew: The FANS also have a say in which NBA ballers are superstars. We recognize commitment, dedication, sacrifice, passion, talent, and skills on the court, things that no one on your panel had packaged together. You guys had your chance and blew it. Brunson is a SUPERSTAR!

I'm over here dying laughing 🤣🤣😂....y'all is toooooo damn funny!!!

Keep it coming, Rashad! You’re the only guy to push back against Gil’s ridiculous takes. Your perspective is fresh and interesting.

Brunson’s last 2 seasons are better than Brandon Jenning’s entire career

I respect Rashad so much for that "when you're on the bench, you know everybody" comment lmao

That’s exactly why NBA losing fans, it’s full of “ characters” nah people want to see BASKETBALL. MJ was humble, Kobe was humble, but had that killer mentality same as Brunson’s. STOP THE HATE!

The only reason he's not getting love is because he isn't an over the top personality. He has everything aside from height you could want in a player otherwise. That being said his height also doesn't hold him back.

Jalen Brunson has dropped 210 points in his last five games, the most over a 5-game span in the playoffs since Michael Jordan in 1993.

Just came up with an idea for Kendrick "The y'all want to see a dead body" clip from boyz in the hood be put in the intro of his next slap would be fire 🔥

McCants saying an NBA Champion Giannis doesn't want to play in the postseason is hilarious

Dillion brooks intros was goated!! Nobody matched that Memphis energy from about 2 1/2 years ago

Has Gils Areana had a superstar on the podcast yet
