On a conference call to promote American Century Championship golf tournament, Kyle Lowry was asked if he saw any Villanova traits from ‘Nova Knicks in Game 4. Lowry: “(When) Josh Hart missed that layup & Wemby got fouled, if you looked at Jalen Brunson, he went straight to Josh & he said, 'Don’t worry about it, we’ll be OK.' "And I think that’s the one thing that us, Villanova (players)…we all understand the grit and the grind but we all understand (the importance of) having a great positive attitude and that’s what (head coach) Jay (Wright) taught us; have a good attitude.... no matter what (happens)… you’ll figure it out out. (Hart) misses a layup, Wemby gets fouled. Jalen was right there to pick him up and he said, ‘Don’t worry about it, we’ll be arlight.' And ya’ll seen what happened (the rest of the game). That’s just the type of attitude, the type of resilience that Nova brings…I just think (the Nova Knicks) just brought a different type of process and winnng culture for the Knicks." Lowry finished 38th in last year's American Century Championship, which is set for July 8-12 with coverage on NBC/Peacock, Friday–Sunday, July 10-12. He’s looking forward to this year’s tournament. When asked about his plans for next NBA season, Lowry said he doesn't know yet what he’ll do. "We’ll see. I like playing golf so I don’t know what’s next....I've gotta get my game right so I don’t know what’s going to happen (but) I need better odds (than his current odds for the American Century)," Lowry said, lightheartedly.

Thinking about the De’Aaron Fox layup at end of Game 4 and it brought to mind two remarkable Jrue Holiday steals during title runs. Both came on road in final seconds of pivotal games. It’s not apples to apples, but Holiday executed incredibly well in those high-leverage moments

Knicks could’ve played it safe & traded for a healthy backup C at 2025 deadline. They instead bet on Mitchell Robinson, who made one of the biggest plays in Game 6 (clip below). Cs struggled with Robinson all series. NYK was +46 in Robinson’s 124 minutes.

“I understand the nature of these things; they get terse…But I do think as far as that locker room is concerned guys can respect that not everyone takes the Jalen Brunson route - even though that money is going to come back to him eventually - and that’s OK. And I think these guys understand that they are a business of one and it’s their opportunity to maximize for themselves and their families.” - Monica McNutt joins The Putback to talk Knicks title run, preseason and more:
