SAN ANTONIO — The biggest upset through two games of the NBA Finals isn’t that the New York Knicks won both on the road against the 62-win San Antonio Spurs, or that New York’s Karl-Anthony Towns, thus far, has outplayed Spurs’ larger-than-life big man Victor Wembanyama, or that a guy who got cut by the freaking Washington Wizards has been a crunch-time hero on this stage.Those are notable, but they do not take the crown. The biggest upset, by far, is that it took Knicks coach Mike Brown 1,276 words into his ebullient, borderline-ecstatic stream-of-consciousness news conference after his team’s Game 2 win before he finally blurted out the word “spray.”“Sprays” — his word for plays on which a player inside the 3-point line kicks the ball out to a player beyond the arc, whether as a result of a drive, catch, offensive board or divine intervention — might be the defining term in the Brownian lexicon. While it took him a comparatively long time to get around to it after the game on Friday, he normally uses this term with the frequency you might expect from, say, a proprietor of specialty hoses, or perhaps the CEO of Aqua Net.Sprays don’t have to result in an immediate 3-point shot, by the way. It’s the process that matters here, not the result. The idea is that they create an advantage for the player who receives the pass against a defender who has to reverse direction and close it to him. Maybe that sets up another drive, which maybe results in a layup or maybe leads to yet another spray. Rinse, lather and repeat.In this case, late in the second quarter of Game 2, the “repeat” part went through four cycles before the Knicks finally achieved the desired result. At the four-minute mark, with San Antonio leading 48-44, the Knicks executed four sprays in the final eight seconds of the shot clock to yield a wide-open corner 3 for one of their best shooters, Mikal Bridges. He splashed it and cut the Spurs’ lead to one.Bridges let it go after 23.8 seconds of New York ball and player movement. Some of that was relatively unexciting preamble, but it ended with a nine-second sequence of four sprays, five total passes and eight dribbles by four different players that broke the Spurs’ defense.
