CLEVELAND — Jalen Brunson has aimed for an NBA Finals appearance with the Knicks since signing with the team, a goal reinforced by owner James Dolan’s January statement that reaching the Finals is essential. After firing Tom Thibodeau, the Knicks are on a historic playoff run, seeking their first Finals berth since 1999. With a chance to secure back-to-back series sweeps, Coach Mike Brown emphasizes focusing on the present. Brunson and teammate OG Anunoby maintain that their goal is to improve game by game, undistracted by the long playoff drought.
