Knicks beat Spurs again to take 2-0 lead in the NBA Finals

Karl-Anthony Towns has been in the position where Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs are at the moment – the talented group of players that has everything to win, but make huge errors that lead to defeats.

Karl-Anthony’s experience, which he has gained during tough postseason failures, seems to be the key at the moment for the team from the Big Apple, which held a late surge by San Antonio in Game 2 for a 105-104 triumph and a 2-0 matchup lead in the series for the title.

The Knicks joined the 1993 Bulls and the 1995 Rockets as the only organizations to win the 1^st 2 matches of the Finals away from home. Both of those 2 franchises won the championship.

If New York does the same, the Knicks can win their 1^st championship since 1973.

Towns finished with 21 points, 13 boards, and 4 assists in 33 minutes on the court. Wenby notched 29 points, including 10 in the 4^th quarter when San Antonio rebounded from 14 points behind to take a 2-point lead in the last minute of the match.
