Knicks in Six

I am not a Knick fan btw. Kind of the opposite. But I have not been as impressed with how the west teams looked compared to ny. Maybe the knicks gave just gotten the easy trip due to who they didnt gave to play. I dont watch much nba. My son does and doesnt agree with me, prob thinks this prediction is nuts.
It is just amazing that the teams who play pro sports in NYC, in MSG, take more than 50 yrs to repeat.

The Knicks have been impressive in this incredible playoff run, with 11 straight wins and an historic point differential. But Wembanyama is going to be impossible to contain offensively, while he has the reach and ability to greatly limit Karl Anthony Townes. In addition the Knick's other Center, Mitchell Robinson, has a broken pinky. The other Knick big isn't very good.
Pretty cool stat btw for us BE lovers. Even in this era, half the starters in the NBA finals are from BE programs: the Knicks Nova 3, Castle from UConn and Champagnie from SJU.
5 from the Big East and 2 more from NJ (Harper & KAT). Plus Alvarado from Brooklyn off the bench. A lot of local ties in this series.
Dont forget knicks asst coach Mark Bryant
Yes, Knicks have gotten a far easier path than West teams.
I expect the Spurs to win in 6. However, I believe it will be a very tough competitive series.
Very much looking forward to Game 1 on Wednesday.
Stop Wemby?
I don't think they stopped Wemby very much - he was MVP of the series.
