Danhausen accuses Knicks’ Jalen Brunson of ‘fibbing’ after he ‘uncursed’ New York before 9-game win streak

After lifting his “curse” on the New York Knicks, WWE Superstar Danhausen “cursed” the Cleveland Cavaliers, and it has worked out for fans in the Big Apple.

Since he “uncursed” the Knicks, they have won nine games in a row. Remember, he “cursed” them, and they dropped two in a row to the Atlanta Hawks. Since then, they haven’t looked back, winning nine in a row with their latest win in Game 2 vs. the Cavs.

During the postgame press conference after Game 2, Jalen Brunson was asked about Danhausen’s role in the Knicks’ win streak. He downplayed it, though he was seen smirking.

“I honestly don’t know too much about it,” the star point guard claimed about his knowledge of the situation. “I’ve been off of social media, so I’ll leave it at that.”

Danhausen didn’t take kindly to this. Brunson should be careful, as the “Very Nice, Very Evil” WWE Superstar is known for lifting and applying “curses.”

“The smirk of someone who is FIBBING,” said the WWE star before claiming, “Brunsonhausen doesn’t want to split the ring in half with Danhausen.”

Since the Knicks went down 2-1 to the Hawks, they haven’t lost. They swept the Philadelphia 76ers, winning most of those games in convincing fashion, and have started their series against the Cavs.

The Knicks won Game 2 by 16 points. Cleveland came out hot after blowing a 22-point fourth quarter lead in Game 1. They were only down by four points going into halftime of Game 2.

The Cavs left Josh Hart open, daring him to beat them. He took advantage of these opportunities, scoring a team-high 26 points. Hart made five of his 11 three-pointers. This came after a game where he was benched as his team made an incredible comeback in the fourth quarter.
