As Knicks reach NBA Cup Final, Mike Brown says Jalen Brunson is MVP  amNewYork
"It's beautiful to be able to see him do what he's more than capable of doing on a national stage like this in an environment like this, Brown said. Hopefully, you media and the fans out there can continue talking about him as an MVP of this league because that's exactly what he is. He makes the game easier for everybody, Brown said."
"That's what MVPs are supposed to do, and he definitely did that [Saturday]. He scored for us when we didn't have much going with our offensive movement and stuff like that. You have a guy like that that can go get a bucket, and he keeps you in the game and. gets you leads, and at the end of the day, he carries you home."
