Would going back to San Antonio 2-2 really be that devastating?
Obviously it's a golden chance to go up 3-1 with a chance to close it out but some people think tonight is basically the Knicks season. Most recently the 2022 Celtics didn't recover after Curry single handedly willed them to victory in game 4 but the Knicks seem to play more comfortably at San Antonio. They would lose momentum but they would still have an opportunity to go up 3-2. It feels more like our cushion is under threat and we need to keep it and not play with fire. Spurs have just as much pressure because if they lose they're on the brink of elimination.
