Hour 4: Jalen Brunson Crowns Himself King of New York After Knicks Title

**Craig Carton** (0:00)
Yeah, yeah, 553, the Knicks are champions, baby! And it hasn't worn off yet, nor will it with a Thursday afternoon, a parade. The reason the parade is not tomorrow, by the way, is because of the World Cup tomorrow.
Because of the Penn Station mess and the travel situation. So that's actually...

**Chris McMonigle** (0:21)
Makes sense.

**Craig Carton** (0:22)
Makes sense.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:22)
Makes sense.
We can wait. We can wait.

**Craig Carton** (0:25)
We ain't got nothing else to do.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:26)
We got nothing to do. We can wait. Prolong this thing, make it last as long as possible. Call it a Tantric Championship. I don't care.

**Craig Carton** (0:33)
A Tantric Championship.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:35)
Yeah, make that thing last.

**Craig Carton** (0:36)
One that lasts forever and ever and ever. Yeah.
The next thing I do want to see, honestly, and I told Pete to get Ben Stiller's ass in here, I now have some kind of strange vested interest in seeing this black and white documentary he claims to be filming sit in court side for all these games.
Because it was kind of annoying to watch it with a camera and not just watching the game all the time. But the one little clip they did put out was pretty awesome. I think it was the game for clip with not the tip. I guess was it the tip? No. It was actually the Spurs possession after the tip. That's what he put out.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:21)
He also, I don't know if it was him and the Knicks. I know he put it out. I think maybe he was re-tweeting the Knicks. But a lot of the footage that got me excited too was making it look like the 1994 television.

**Craig Carton** (1:33)
I don't know if I saw that. Yeah.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:34)
There's like a couple of them where they went through. He went through like the whole thing, that whole day leading up until the game and then the play.
They didn't actually show either the final two plays, which I thought was odd. But outside of that, just the Garden, some of the just average play of the second quarter, whatever, and it had that vintage kind of 90s television feel to it. Again, a lot of this for me was nostalgic going back. Were you... Seeing that video look like that was awesome.

**Craig Carton** (2:00)
Did you make your family sit and watch the NBA mini movie they put out that you're a part of? I did. The second voice in the entire thing?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:09)
Yeah, they got that great side angle where my face was so...

**Craig Carton** (2:10)
They got you good, I thought.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:11)
Yeah, it's all right. Yeah, that was awesome.

**Craig Carton** (2:14)
We were in the first 30 seconds of it.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:16)
I didn't know. I didn't show anybody that.

**Craig Carton** (2:18)
I forgot about that. Oh, you got to show the boys and Sarah that.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:20)
I know, I know.

**Craig Carton** (2:21)
So NBA throughout the playoffs did like a mini movie, like a five minute capsulation of the last game where it was coming up next. And they came in and they filmed me and Big Mac. And we opened it. We're essentially the opening of the NBA film's mini movie.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:37)
Yeah, that was awesome.

**Craig Carton** (2:38)
And I have to say this, great choice, NBA.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:41)
I couldn't agree more.

**Craig Carton** (2:42)
Fantastic choice of talent to use.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:44)
Yeah, it just nailed the entire experience.

**Craig Carton** (2:46)
I never should have signed that release. I could actually get paid for that. But I did sign it.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:51)
They get to use it.

**Craig Carton** (2:52)
Yeah. But I was so happy you were in it.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:54)
I was so happy.

**Craig Carton** (2:55)
I was like, Big Mac's in it! Yeah!

**Chris McMonigle** (2:56)
I mean, he doesn't get a ring, but he's in the video.

**Craig Carton** (2:58)
You don't get a ring, but you can borrow mine any time you want. Once I have insurance on it. Programming note, Jim Dolan will join us in studio Wednesday in the five o'clock hour.

**Chris McMonigle** (3:09)
Master motivator, James Dolan.

**Craig Carton** (3:12)
That speech that he gave on April 3rd with five games to go in the season will live forever. And I do think you will see those final three sentences emblazed in a rock somewhere at Madison Square Garden. Do it! Commit to it!
And then the other one.
