Vincent Goodwill, reporting for ESPN;
Karl-Anthony Towns has been where Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs are now: a talented bunch that is trying to get over the hump but keeps making errors to land in impossible situations.
Towns’ experience, forged through some recent playoff failures, seems to be driving the bus for the New York Knicks, who held off a late surge by the Spurs on Friday night for a 105-104 win in Game 2 at Frost Bank Center and a 2-0 series lead in the NBA Finals.
That was a costly turnover by Wemby after a Jalen Brunson miss and a “potential game winning play” for the Spurs.

Going back to MSG with a 2-0 lead in the NBA Finals, the atmosphere will be bonkers and ticket prices will surely cost a kidney and a liver.
