Knicks edge Spurs 105-104 in Game 2 to take 2-0 NBA Finals lead

In the ancient theater of championship basketball, where cities and generations stake their hopes on the flight of a ball, the New York Knicks have moved to the threshold of history. A single missed shot by Victor Wembanyama in San Antonio's final breath sealed a 105-104 defeat, giving New York a 2-0 Finals lead and placing the Spurs in the unforgiving arithmetic of elimination. What unfolds now is a story as old as sport itself — the tension between a dynasty being born and a young team learning, at great cost, what winning truly requires.
