Jalen Brunson helped lead the New York Knicks to an NBA Cup Championship, defeating the San Antonio Spurs, 124-113, on Tuesday night. 

The Knicks stormed back in the fourth quarter, outscoring the Spurs 35-19 with Tyler Kolek, Mitchell Robinson, and Jordan Clarkson proving a spark off the bench. 

In the post-game press conference, Brunson was asked about Mike Brown's decision to try a new lineup down the stretch and how it paid off. 

"One, it shows the confidence Mike has in us to figure it out," said Brunson. "He's not afraid to fail, either. Having that mindset of not being afraid to fail is good for us because it allows us to continue to fight and allows us to go out there and not worry about the result.

"You may play great defense on a possession, and they hit a tough shot. You may play great all game and lose on the final buzzer. We're not afraid of failure. It's a big time thing about us and we have to continue to have that mindset and thought process in whatever we do, and continue to build off this."

The Knicks were able to complete the comeback against the Spurs thanks to their bench, led by Mitchell Robinson. 

Robinson only scored four points, but his work on the glass played a huge role in the Knicks victory. Robinson collected 15 rebounds in total, with ten coming on the offensive glass. The Knicks scored 32 second chance points thanks in part to Robinson's rebounding. 

Tyler Kolek, who averages 10 minutes per game, played 20 minutes in the NBA Cup Finals, scoring 14 points, grabbing five rebounds, and dishing five assists. 

Jordan Clarkson had 15 points in 27 minutes while knocking down three of his seven threes.

Clarkson and Kolek were a +15 and +14, respectively. 

Mike Brown replaced Tom Thibodeau as the Knicks head coach in the offseason despite the Knicks making the Eastern Conference Finals. 

Brown is well-traveled, having previously held head coaching jobs with the Cleveland Cavaliers during LeBron James' first stint with the organization and the Los Angeles Lakers with Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash. 

He was an assistant coach on the Golden State Warriors during the Kevin Durant and Steph Curry days. 

Brown's flexibility with his game plan and rotations, along with his past success and failures with some of the best players in NBA history, has been lauded by Knicks fans after years of Thibodeau's rigid structure.
