The owner of the Knicks, a friend of Trump, to the players: “Don’t have sex, like the Spartans”

The owner of the brand new champion New York Knicks and friend of Donald Trump, James Dolan He got into the lead before the playoffs with a harangue that, clearly, has penetrated his players.

In a video posted by Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart on his podcast Roommates Show, Dolan appears giving an impassioned speech to the players with five games left in the regular season.

“This team can win everything. I don’t know if you understand what it would mean for you to win the championship this year. It would change all of your lives,” said the team executive. 71 years old.

“It will stay with you for the rest of your lives, and if you don’t win it you will be thinking about it for the rest of your lives and so will I,” Dolan added, becoming apocalyptic.

“When people introduce you, even if you become the president of the United States, they will start with ‘2026 NBA champion.’ I guarantee it,” James Dolan continued. “We have a strange and unique opportunity to do it. And it’s not just you guys, the players, it’s all of us,” the executive added.

As if everything said above were not enough, Dolan would later get the best verse of this harangue:

“It occurred to me that maybe you should give up sex for the next few 10 weeks. The Spartans deprived themselves of sex, right? So they had an advantage. Let’s take advantage of that, go home, talk to your wives, don’t tell them it was my idea. But let them know what it will be, what this commitment will be,” the executive also said.

James Dolan became owner of the Knicks in 1999 and his speech could not reach his players more: the New York team is NBA champion 53 years later.
