Jalen Brunson continues to write his name in the history of the New York Knicks. The point guard was unanimously chosen as MVP of the Eastern Conference Finals after leading the 4-0 victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Brunson closed the series with averages of 25.5 points and 7.8 assists, shooting 49% from the field. His impact was crucial throughout the series, especially in the first game when he led New York's spectacular comeback in the last quarter to change the course of the series.

In the fourth game, he once again played a key role in the 130-93 victory that confirmed the Knicks' return to an NBA Finals for the first time since 1999. Despite finishing with 15 points, the point guard once again controlled the pace of the game and guided a team experiencing its best moment of the season.

Brunson's level during these playoffs has been historic. New York has stacked up 11 consecutive victories and won all their series convincingly, including wins by 51 points against the Atlanta Hawks and by 30 against the Philadelphia 76ers.

The Knicks, aiming for the ring

After receiving the trophy from legends Walt Frazier and Patrick Ewing, Brunson is now aiming for the big goal: bringing the ring back to New York more than half a century later.

The Knicks will now seek the championship against the Oklahoma City Thunder or San Antonio Spurs in a Finals that could mark a new era for the New York franchise.
