KNICKS WIN THE NBA CUP! Here’s What They Just PROVED

New York Knicks defeat the San Antonio Spurs in a dramatic victory to win the NBA Cup in Las Vegas! Mitchell Robinson dominates the paint, OG Anunoby anchors the perimeter, and sophomore Tyler Kolek electrifies with playmaking and grit. Can this Knicks squad maintain their momentum toward a deep playoff run?

Gavin Schall and XJ break down the Knicks’ resilient victory, revealing how strategic adjustments, late-game heroics, and bench performances—from Jordan Clarkson, Mitch, and Kolek—overcame San Antonio’s star Victor Wembanyama and point-of-attack weaknesses. Insightful debate centers on Mikal Bridges’ defensive struggles, the ongoing need for backcourt depth, and the value of the NBA Cup as a true test of championship DNA. Can Mike Brown and the Knicks build on this statement win and solidify themselves as being in a tier of their own in the Eastern Conference?
