    Only to see him pull off an epic historic choke in game 1 vs pacers

    and then get swept…

    he’s a midget and not even close to top 5 … Jesus Christ what a bad take. Just flops and falls down.

    Top 5 at what though? Drawing fouls? Falling gracefully? Staring at refs like they owe him rent?

    What is “dreams hooker”? It sounds offensive but I don’t know who should be offended. You know what, I probably don’t want to know.

    Reading the thread title, I thought this was about Hakeem (OP forgot to put an apostrophe between "dream" and "s") having a hooker (juicy story!) who on social media called Jalen Brunson a top 5 player.

    Do folks tend to
    1. Make a clear choice between Treasures and Bissonnet
    2. Constantly choose between the two based on Mood and/or Finances

    Here's how people tend to approach such choices:

    • Make a clear choice: Some folks do pick a “favorite” based on consistent preferences—like atmosphere, crowd, pricing, or service. They may always prefer one over the other and rarely switch.

    • Choose based on mood/finances: Many others, though, switch between the two depending on the situation. For instance:
      • If they're feeling low-key or trying to save, they might go for the more affordable or relaxed option.

      • If it's a celebration or payday, they might splurge on the one with a more upscale vibe.
    In short, both behaviors exist, but for most people, it’s a mix—mood, budget, and who they’re with often influence the call.

    Want a more specific breakdown or cultural insight into how people view these two spots?

    Brunson averaging 30 pts 7.3 assists on 57.1% TS in the playoffs. The struggle is real.

    Brunson left 100M on the table so Knicks can get him some help. Thats what a top player does.

    This isn’t quite true. He could have gotten more if he waited a year but that also comes with risk. He’s not prime Durant where he would get a max no matter what. He’s a small guard about to turn 29, if he tore an Achilles or something this season he could have lost out on all the money. He’s also can recoup all of it later on (but i doubt he will get a supermax at 32).
