The Knicks rallied for a 107-106 win in the largest comeback in NBA Finals history, taking a 3-1 series lead; San Antonio faces a must-win Game 5 at home on Saturday.
The Knicks edged the Spurs 105-104 on the road to take a 2-0 series lead. Brunson stressed the need to reset their mindset and warned that San Antonio will raise their intensity in a comeback push.
The Knicks rallied late for their 12th straight win as Brunson and Towns liken the team's grit to New York spirit, eyeing their first championship since 1973.
The Knicks stole Game 1 of the NBA Finals on the road. Jalen Brunson kept pouring in points despite an ankle sprain, Victor Wembanyama struggled to find his rhythm, and the Spurs could not hold on after taking the lead.
The Knicks have won 11 straight in the playoffs, with Jalen Brunson averaging 26.9 points to lead all scorers. He said outside doubts have instead brought the team together, and they will face Stephon Castle's stifling defense when they open the Finals on the road against the Spurs.
