The Spurs are still believers, but it's the Knicks who are 1 game from winning the NBA title
The Knicks have outscored the Spurs by eight points through four games and can clinch the title with a win in Game 5.
- The New York Knicks lead the San Antonio Spurs 3-1 in the NBA Finals, one win away from their first championship in 53 years during Game 5 on Saturday in San Antonio.
- New York rallied from a 29-point deficit to defeat San Antonio 107-106 in Game 4, extending a pattern of narrow losses for the Spurs in Games 1 and 2.
- Shooting statistics remain nearly even, with the Knicks at 44% and the Spurs at 43%, as Knicks guard Jalen Brunson maintains the mantra, "Our mentality has to be 0-0, the way it's been."
- Spurs guard De'Aaron Fox urged teammates to "put this behind us," while Victor Wembanyama emphasized the need to grow stronger through adversity rather than surrender.
- History strongly favors New York; of 38 teams that trailed 3-1 in the NBA Finals, 37 lost the title, making Saturday's Game 5 potentially decisive for the Knicks' 53-year championship drought.
