NBA fans are absolutely losing it over
0:02
this year's finals. The long-suffering
0:04
New York Knicks, who have not won a
0:05
championship since 1973, are facing off
0:08
against the San Antonio Spurs, who are
0:10
led by a 7'5" 22-year-old Frenchman,
0:13
Victor Wembanyama. If you are not an NBA
0:16
obsessive, here's what you need to know
0:17
to follow along. Let's start with the
0:19
Spurs. They're a great young team, but
0:22
their biggest player, as I said before,
0:24
is Wembanyama. He is an absolute
0:26
out-of-this-world athlete, so much so
0:28
that his nickname is the alien. And this
0:30
is his first playoff appearance. It's
0:32
not just that he's the tallest and best
0:34
defensive player in the league. He's
0:36
also skilled on offense, and can handle
0:38
the ball, make tricky plays, and shoot
0:40
from anywhere. This sets up a great
0:42
fight with the Knicks, whose leader
0:43
Jalen Brunson is the league's shortest
0:45
superstar. He's an unreal scorer,
0:47
especially in crunch time, and he turned
0:49
the Knicks into a contender after two
0:51
decades as one of the league's worst
0:52
teams. Brunson is the opposite of
0:54
Wembanyama, and it's not just his
0:55
height. Wembanyama was the most
0:57
anticipated number one draft pick since
0:59
LeBron James. Brunson was a second-round
1:02
pick who started as a role player in
1:04
Dallas before the New York Knicks signed
1:06
him in 2022. While the Spurs beat the
1:08
defending champion Oklahoma City Thunder
1:10
to get to the finals, and are the narrow
1:12
favorites in the betting markets, the
1:14
Knicks are on an 11-game win streak in
1:16
the playoffs, and have been blowing out
1:18
their opponents by unprecedented
1:20
margins, winning big games by 30, 40,
1:22
even 50 points. All in all, it makes for
1:24
one of the most exciting matchups in
1:26
years, and even if you don't watch
1:28
basketball regularly, I promise you'll
1:30
want to see this one. Also, Knicks in
1:32
six.
