New York KnicksvsSan Antonio Spurs
NY 105/SA 104
Things to say
Knicks edged the Spurs 105-104 in San Antonio.
01
opener
Knicks stole one in San Antonio, 105-104. Came down to the wire. Spurs had every chance and just couldn't get the last bucket.
02
key player
Wemby went for 29 and 9 and still took the L. Dude is a problem, but you need somebody else to show up.
03
hot take
Honestly the Spurs at 62-20 are a little overrated if they're losing this game at home.
04
deep cut
Fox only had 5 dimes. When your point guard's not creating, you're asking Wemby to do too much.
05
exit
Anyway, real test is what New York does on the road trip from here.
The recap
Knicks stole one in San Antonio, 105-104, and the Spurs are still kicking themselves over it. Wemby was a problem all night with 29 and 9, but New York just kept chipping and had ice in their veins down the stretch.
KAT did the heavy lifting with 21 and 13, banging in the paint against the tallest dude in the league. Spurs took the L despite outplaying them for stretches — that's the kind of game that haunts you in June.
