The Knicks head into Game 2 of the NBA Finals with a remarkable 12-game playoff win streak, the best run since San Antonio in 1999. That 1998-99 season holds particular resonance this year; it was the last time the Knicks and Spurs met in the Finals, and New York’s most recent Eastern Conference championship.

That’s why it’s no surprise the Knicks are especially motivated this year, leading them to steal a win in San Antonio behind Jalen Brunson’s 30-point game and Karl-Anthony Towns’ double-double.
