They know it, and they won’t blow it. Knicks in four.
The Knicks take Game 2. In San Antonio. I only had a few very brief feelings of doubt. I was sure they were going to win, even when they fell behind, and even after the Spurs caught up and went ahead. Because the Knicks are more clutch than the Spurs.
A thought. The Spurs should use Kornet and Wemby together. Kornet is a good center, and a great shot-blocker. Wemby is a natural guard-forward who happens to be seven and a half feet tall, with an eight-foot wingspan. He’s got a great handle, can shoot from anywhere, and defends like there’s a tree in front of the basket.
The next two games are in the Garden, which is the best home floor in the world. The Knicks are a machine, and the Spurs are not. If the Knicks sweep, this will be one of the greatest stories in the history of sports, and not just basketball. They’ve won thirteen straight in the playoffs, which are the most difficult and competitive games of the year. They’ve swept the last two series, and are perfectly positioned to sweep this one. At home.
New York will go nuts. Wish I was still there.
