New York Knicks fans, get ready to dream big. After falling short in the conference finals last season, the Knicks are making a serious statement this postseason, and their championship hopes are growing stronger with every game.

Wednesday night’s 108-102 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers wasn’t just another win—it was New York’s fifth straight playoff victory, a streak that’s turning heads across the league. More importantly, it’s proving that this squad has the grit and talent to go all the way.

At the heart of this surge is Jalen Brunson, who continues to deliver MVP-caliber performances. In Game 2, the 29-year-old guard put up 26 points and 6 assists, leading his team to a commanding 2-0 series lead. But here’s where it gets historic: according to The Lead, Brunson has now tied Nikola Jokic for the most playoff games with at least 25 points since the start of the 2023 postseason.

Both stars have recorded 34 such games, putting them ahead of elite company like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jayson Tatum, who each have 30 during that span. It’s a feat that cements Brunson’s place among the NBA’s elite postseason performers.

But Brunson wasn’t the only Knicks player making history. Karl-Anthony Towns joined franchise legend Patrick Ewing as the only players in Knicks playoff history to record at least 20 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists while shooting over 75% from the field. It’s the kind of all-around dominance that makes this team a nightmare for opponents.

As the Knicks continue their march through the playoffs, one thing is clear: this team is built for the big stage, and Brunson is leading the charge.
