I don't want to hear anyone say we need a Superstar again. Jalen is an MVP candidate and Julius is now a perennial All-Star. We have everything we need.

According to SAS, Donovan Mitchell is MJ mixed with Kobe and Lebron. And the Knicks not blowing up their roster for him will be the reason why they'll never win a championship.

This wouldn’t be a good celebration thread without making fun of other franchises.

Keep the receipts for all the fools thinking paying Brunson 4/104 was an overpay.

Jalen much deserved.

Jules will retire one of the greatest Knicks ever. Whether we like it or not, and whatever this says about our franchise history, it nonetheless remains true.

Great to have two Knicks on ASG even if Julius can't play. It's great for them and for the franchise.

Facts!

Who cares? Let’s celebrate these guys accomplishments without trying to bring down past great Knicks. You should try that some time instead of trolling.

I’m proud of these two dudes man. I think Thibs said it best when he said they’re “self-made.” They’ve earned every accolade this game has recognized them with. Both are true hard workers and NYC will always respect that. Nice to see the NBA in general, finally catching on.

As for Randle. He’s still a very polarizing player but he’s growing on me. The same stubbornness that makes him a tireless worker, (and that makes him frustrating to root for, at times) is what’s allowing him to stick around long enough to literally will his way into the hearts of Knicks fans, to the point of acceptance.

He’s forging his way into Knicks history slowly, and similar to his bogarding, bumrushing forays into the paint, he’s bullying his way up the Knicks record books and into some lofty territory among the all-time great Knicks.

Meanwhile, Brunson is making his case for arguably having a legit shot to become the greatest Knick of all time. As long as he remains healthy and keeps on this trajectory.

The next step for both of our All-Stars, is NBA post-season success. A trip to the Conference Finals would really begin to solidify their ascension in the eyes of NBA prognosticators.
