You do know ESPN makes no money off them winning, right?

You know ESPN sucks the NBA and New York’s dick? Credibility and journalism isn’t ESPN’s objective

The ESPYs are completely fake awards.

I'd put them on about the same level of prestige as the Teen Choice Awards

Indirectly they probably do, it keeps NBA fans engaged with their content.

All you can do at this point is laugh and shake your head.

Anyone with common sense would tell you that USA Hockey was the best team, and best story, of the year.

ESPN is just trolling us.

You realize that it’s possible to know who won an award without actually watching the show?

Sorry, I'm going with the Knicks as the best story of the year. The Comeback, the Tip-In, everything about their playoff run was amazing. It's cool that the U.S.A. hockey team won, but beating Canada in Italy ain't the same thing as the Miracle On Ice. As an Upstate New Yorker who lived all that growing up, there's really no comparison. The Knicks championship has been a long time coming and I enjoyed the victory way more than I was expecting.

Sure I can. I guess next you'll say I can't hate the yankees if they win the world series. (spoiler: I can)

Any NY team winning means more to ESPN and that League to be fair.

This wasn’t the 1980 miracle on ice win.

It was nice but I totally forgot it even happened this year until this thread was made.

You can't lose to the hawks twice in the playoffs and claim beat team.

Hockey is a much better sport than basketball, but what the Knicks accomplished is far more impressive than what U.S. Hockey accomplished. Well deserved for the Knicks.

Actually, I think that's exactly how a playoff system works. See, the team who wins the playoffs is crowned as the best team for that year. It's science.
