Becky Hammon on comments she made on Jalen Brunson: 'I said what I said, if he proves me wrong, he proves me wrong'

“I speak from experience,” Hammon said Tuesday. “Allen Iverson got MVP and he lost in the finals. I think the two best teams are probably in the West, but I’m up for being proven wrong. That’s the other thing, I think Jalen Brunson’s a hell of a player, a hell of a player. I’m speaking historically on the NBA with what I said. I don’t know why everybody’s so stuck on that. I said it two years ago. “I said what I said. If he proves me wrong, he proves me wrong.”
