Jim Jones – Ballin’ (Knicks In 5) [Video]

Jim Jones celebrates the Knicks’ championship run with “Ballin’ (Knicks In 5),” a Zoe Spencer-assisted update rooted in New York pride and Dipset history.

Jones knows exactly what “Ballin’” means in New York. With “Ballin’ (Knicks In 5),” he pulls his signature ad-lib back into the city’s bloodstream, turning the Knicks’ championship moment into a quick, loud victory lap with Zoe Spencer along for the celebration.

The record is built on timing as much as nostalgia. Nearly two decades after “We Fly High” made the jump-shot gesture unavoidable, Jones now bends that same New York energy toward Madison Square Garden euphoria. The Knicks ended a 53-year title drought by beating San Antonio in five games, so the hook does not need much explanation. It already sounds like something fans were waiting to yell.

At just over a minute and a half, “Ballin’ (Knicks In 5)” moves like a chant more than a full reset. Jim Jones keeps it direct, Zoe Spencer adds another layer of crowd energy, and the whole thing leans into the loose, immediate feel of a city still celebrating. It is not trying to rewrite the original “Ballin’” moment. It knows the history is the point.

The official video gives the single a natural second life, catching Jones in the middle of a very New York overlap: Dipset memory, Knicks pride, and a championship summer that practically demanded its own soundtrack.
