Last season, the New York Knicks had a solid run, making their first second-round playoff appearance since 1999-00, thanks to the stellar play of Jalen Brunson. While they didnât advance further, Tom Brady, the former NFL quarterback shared a promising outlook for the Knicks.
With seven Super Bowl titles under his beltâsix with the New England Patriots (2001, 2003, 2004, 2014, 2016, and 2018) and one with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2020)âBrady is the most decorated player in NFL history.
So when he talks about a winning mentality, people listen. Recently, Brady was a guest on Jalen Brunson and Josh Hartâs podcast, where he discussed the NBA Finals and offered a big prediction for the Knicks.

âWinning the Super Bowl is a whole other thing. Itâs probably like getting to the [NBA] Finals. Itâs hard to get there, and then once you get there, you really gotta compete,â Brady said. âI have a feeling youâre gonna get there.â

For a team that has long been starved for success, Bradyâs prediction could serve as a rallying cry. With Jalen Brunson leading the charge and the team continuing to build around its young core, the Knicks may just have the momentum they need to turn Bradyâs words into reality.
