On June 15, Beijing time, Dylan Harper's rookie season far exceeded expectations, putting San Antonio Spurs head coach Mitch Johnson in a dilemma when planning next season's rotation. After the Spurs' 90-94 loss to the Knicks, Spurs guard Vassell praised Harper in a press conference, calling him a rising star.

On June 15 Beijing time, the Knicks, fresh off winning the NBA title in San Antonio, touched down at Westchester County Airport. As the team’s return flight entered New York airspace, local air traffic controllers sent congratulations over the control channel. After roughly four hours of flying, the entire team arrived back in New York to a hero’s welcome, with the airport even performing a traditional water salute for the aircraft.

On June 15, Beijing time, the Knicks' long wait finally came to an end. The players who secured the long-awaited NBA championship for the team not only earned a place in history but also received substantial financial rewards. The Knicks players will share a generous portion of the NBA playoff bonus pool. For low-salaried players on the roster, this championship dividend represents a major boost to their income this season.

Brunson FMVP? No, Fox FMVP is right. (Manual dog head.) This guy, as the highest-paid player on the Spurs, has performed extremely poorly. In this year's Finals, he averaged only 12.8 points per game, with a field goal percentage of just 34.3% and a three-point percentage as low as 25%. Particularly worth mentioning is that Fox signed a four-year 2.

4-1, the Knicks defeated the Spurs to officially claim this year's championship trophy, with Brunson winning Finals MVP. While the on-court game has ended, the off-court overtime continues as scheduled. Spurs fans are terrifyingly formidable—one fan managed to stand his ground against hundreds of Knicks fans without losing ground.

On June 14 Beijing time, after the Knicks won the NBA championship, New York City erupted in celebration. While most fans celebrated responsibly, multiple violent incidents occurred overnight: a school bus was deliberately set ablaze, and a 17-year-old was shot in the foot.

On June 14, Beijing time, as the NBA Finals concluded tonight, the trade war surrounding Giannis Antetokounmpo has entered its final week countdown. The Celtics' disappointing first-round playoff exit against the 76ers this season has fueled frustration, and in recent weeks, rumors linking the team to the Bucks' superstar have been rampant. With the draft approaching, trade speculation is intensifying, and the entire league has its eyes on Boston.

On June 14, Beijing time, the 2025-26 NBA season concluded with the Knicks defeating the Spurs 4-1 in the Finals to claim the championship. ESPN promptly released its offseason power rankings (pre-draft and pre-trade) for the 30 teams. In this early ranking, the newly crowned champion Knicks placed third, the Thunder ranked first, and the Spurs second. The Lakers came in at ninth, while the Rockets were tenth.

Congratulations to the New York Knicks for winning the NBA championship for the 25-26 season. Many claim the 4-1 series score doesn't reflect the true strength of the two teams. But I believe by this point in the series, a 4-1 result genuinely reflects their real abilities. Across five games, the Spurs held double-digit leads in the first quarter every time, only to see the Knicks catch up and surpass them each time, with Game 3 being the only exception where the Spurs ultimately secured a win.

Although he has played in the NBA for many years, it was only this season that the Philippines' top basketball star earned his first championship ring.
