unusual<\/em> suggestion to his players was first revealed on Brunson and Josh Hart\u2019s \u201cRoommates\u201d podcast.<\/p>\n\u201cYou don\u2019t have to give up sex for the next 10 weeks, but like Spartans \u2014 do you know what Spartans are? They denied themselves so that they could have an edge. Get the edge,\u201d Dolan said, adding:<\/p>\n
\u201cGo home, talk to your wives,\u201d Dolan said. \u201cDon\u2019t tell them you\u2019re not going to have sex, and don\u2019t tell them it was my idea.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBut let them know what this is going to be like, what your commitment is going to be like, and how they\u2019re going to have to sacrifice too.\u201d<\/p>\n
Thankfully, Karl didn\u2019t take the advice to heart. He and Jordyn got engaged earlier this year, and she paid loving tribute to her lanky boo after the Knicks polished off the San Antonio Spurs four games to one in the NBA Finals:<\/p>\n
\n\u201cTo my soon-to-be husband and best friend: you did it. I couldn\u2019t be more proud of you,\u201d she wrote, adding:<\/p>\n
\u201cWatching the humility you\u2019ve carried through every high and low, the way you put your faith before everything else, the sacrifices you\u2019ve made, and the joy you\u2019ve brought to every moment has been so inspiring. No ego. Just hard work, gratitude, and an unwavering belief.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat a journey this has been for us. You always said, \u2018When I get my ring, I\u2019ll get you yours,\u2019 and somehow it happened exactly that way. Two rings in one year.\u201d<\/p>\n
It\u2019s gonna be hard to top 2026. But something tells us Jordyn and Karl will keep trying.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
