Danhausen, basketball world react to New York Knicks remaining ‘uncursed’
Danhausen continues to take credit for the New York Knicks’ 2026 NBA Playoffs run.
The Knicks have not lost a game in 43 days, and many people believe this is due to Danhausen uncursing the team.
The Knicks are now up 2-0 on the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals following their win on Friday night.
Danhausen responded to an ESPN article about the Knicks on Saturday, writing:
“Has anyone thought about how powerful Danhausen is yet today? KNICKSHAUSEN”
NBA writers such as Zach Lowe have also commented on Danhausen’s apparent impact on the series. Lowe wrote:
“At this point, I might actually start sending money/human monies if I were a Knicks fan”
Danhausen also responded to noted Knicks fan Ariel Helwani, who publicly thanked Danhausen after the Knicks’ win on Friday.
Danhausen wrote:
“You…. Are….. Welcomehausen.”
Danhausen has been involved in a back-and-forth with Stephen A. Smith over the cursing of the Knicks, with Danhausen asking Smith to pay him more human monies, give him a TV show, and provide him with courtside tickets to the game.
After the Knicks’ victory in Game 1, Danhausen claimed that Smith’s check cleared and the Knicks being uncursed continues.
“.@stephenasmith check cleared. KNICKSHAUSEN and the UNCURSE continue! (Danhausen is on a European travel time delay)”
After Game 1 of the series, many fans suggested that Jalen Brunson gave the Danhausen “you are cursed” motion to the Spurs. A clip of him doing so is available below:
