The Knicks are bidding to win their first Championship since 1973 and Karl-Anthony Towns said the fans have been inspiring their comebacks.<\/p>\n
“It’s something that’s in the city, you feel that energy in the city,” said Towns, who posted 18 points and 12 rebounds.<\/p>\n
“The grit, the grind, the hard work you’ve got to put in to make it in the city. <\/p>\n
“I think we reflect our fans and their lifestyles and what it takes to make it in New York City, when we step on that court with the Knicks jersey.”<\/p>\n
It was a quiet night for Victor Wembanyama. He was the top scorer for the Spurs but only scored six of his 21 shots from the field. <\/p>\n
“We’ve been down in a series before – never in the Finals – but I’m not kicking myself about anything,” said Wembenyama.<\/p>\n
“I was bad, it’s not more complicated than that. I’m not worried in the slightest.”<\/p>\n
The best-of-seven series continues in San Antonio on Friday before the teams head to Madison Square Garden for Game three on Monday. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
