The Knicks lost for the first time in 46 days, and Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber explain why Game 3 was less about one bad call or one bad performance and more about how hard it is to win an NBA Finals game. The Spurs brought a tougher, more physical approach, disrupted New York’s offense, and gave Knicks fans their first real dose of pressure in weeks.Evan and Tiki break down the sloppiness, the turnovers, Jalen Brunson’s rough stretches, Karl Anthony Towns’ quiet night, Mikal Bridges’ disappearing act, and OG Anunoby’s standout performance. They also weigh the officiating complaints, the atmosphere at Madison Square Garden, and why the mood around Knicks fans still felt more confident than panicked.
