“It’s over. Knick fans, this is not a dream.” “We did it. We hung in there and we brought it home, baby, New York.” “It’s hard to articulate what this team means at this time to this city, but I never thought I would see anything like this.” “Feeling ecstatic right now. Amazing. It’s a great feeling to finally get a championship after so many years.” “It’s a New York story, baby.” “I love my country, New York.” “I want to be a part of it. New York, New York.” “We are the champions.” “Jalen Brunson.” “Let’s go!” “Go New York, go New York go. Go New York, go New York go.”
