Stephon Castle on the biggest difference between defending Jalen Brunson vs. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: "Jalen likes to use angles a lot more, pump fakes. Get to his spots. Not really trying to draw fouls as much, trying to get to his midrange and spots where he likes."

Castle just put to bed the Brunson flopping allegations

Castle is a tough kid. Really like his game. I love that he just causally took a giant shit on Shai 😂

Brunson plays basketball Shai tries to cheat the game. It was a lot easier to watch the game yesterday than any other thunder game this post season

At this point anyone that says Brunson flops is proof they don’t know ball

@KnicksAnd_Dimes So he’s not a flopper!!! Glad we cleared that one up!!!

Quite literally what SGA does but cool

Hilarious when all the fans call Brunson a flopper... here you have it... getting to his spots! He schooled Bryant dog walked him to his spot 3 possessions in a row. Keep hearing about everyone is better than JB until you have to play Jalen Brunson. #knicks 🧹

@SENGADREAMCAST So Brunson isnt a flopper....

@skobuffss He doesn’t try to do what as much????

Mop head says what ?

Translation: He's not the same as the flopper, he's more of a killer.

Not drawing fouls as much from a player... what do you know?

Flopping allegations have been put to rest. Thank you Castle!! Now on to game 2

Funny “NBA experts” told me just tries to get fouls

Translation: I just be getting shit on by guards better than me a lot. I’m ass and I know it, it sucksbut I’m happy to be getting paid.

@glassford41 Bro cut the full quote ffs

Rather play against SGA. Brunson isn't a stat padder, he's a baller.

From the person that guarded both and not from these fake ass twitter basketball experts that ain’t never hooped ever

Jalen is actually the best

Real recognize real much respect to this kid

But the media told me he’s a flopper…

Facts Brunson ain’t out here just straight hooping spurs need to adjust quick

Jalen is a hooper !

I’m going to go back and watch actual coverage on SGA. It will tell the truth. He knows he’s playing the biggest market and has to change his PR for obvious reasons

Holy dick suck. Spurs already bitched themselves. Congrats New York.

That is how Brunson plays the whole time. He is just trying to get to his spot. See if you over commit maybe draw a foul. But he is more trying to hit the shot. Not flop over with no intention of hitting the shot waiting for a whistle. All Shai has to do is do that as well. Shai isn't trying to get the and one. That was his downfall against the Spurs.

I want spurs to win but jb deserves to win,spurs are a really young team and would go again next year or the year after that but jb is 29! Let him get one

PSA to all the casuals

Bum got 35 on his head game 7 and needed a triple team at half court the whole series but wants to cry about fouls .. cut your hair clown and respect a B2B MVP you know nothing about

Crazy to say from a guy who just bowls people over when he drives to the rim

Love this insight from Castle. It’s so accurate. Brunson isn't trying to trick the refs; he’s trying to trick your feet. He beats you with angles and high-IQ footwork. Great recognition from the rookie.

The clown was playing press coverage on Shai like a DB the entire series and has the nerve to talk about flopping

Now Brunson can flop without any problems, this guy has buried himself with such stories

Basically Jalen shoots more actual shots but doesn’t flop on every shot like shai does

This series is more respectful lol. So far
