In NBA Finals history, 37 teams have taken a 2-0 lead. 32 of them won the series, including every team to win the first two games on the road.<\/p>\n

Karl-Anthony Towns<\/a> led the way for the Knicks in Game 2. The New Jersey Native scored a team-high 21 points with 13 rebounds to boot. He also went 3-for-5 from beyond the arc. Mikal Bridges<\/a> and Jalen Brunson<\/a> each tacked on 20 points and 6 assists of their own.<\/p>\n

The Spurs<\/a> ran their offense through Victor Wembanyama<\/a> once again. The French big man scored 29 points on 11-for-21 shooting with 9 rebounds and 4 blocks. De’Aaron Fox scored 20 of his own and dished out five assists<\/p>\n

In Game 3, both teams will be concerned with pace. The Knicks excelled on fast breaks, scoring 19 points to the Spurs’ 11. The Spurs will look to slow the pace in order to set up better looks in the paint and avoid the steals that plagued them in Game 2.<\/p>\n
