## Resource

Jalen Brunson’s post-championship message? Chill out on Taylor Swift. The Knicks captain defended the pop star’s courtside energy, calling her a true fan and urging fans to give her a break. Swift, who screamed through Game Four and later admitted her voice was shot, missed the final game—catching a Broadway show instead. Meanwhile, analyst Monica McNutt sparked controversy with a hot mic comment calling Swift “not a Knicks fan,” which she later tried to downplay. But the Knicks’ camp, including Brunson and even Josh Hart’s wife Shannon, stood by Swift, highlighting how celebrity presence can amplify games—and how quickly opinions form. Sometimes, Brunson reminds us, just enjoy the moment. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
