The Knicks are one win away from putting real pressure on Cleveland, and Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber explain why Game 2 could shape far more than this series. With injuries piling up out West, the guys look at how the Knicks can turn urgency, health, and rest into a potential Finals advantage.

Evan and Tiki break down why the playoffs often become a war of attrition, why closing out Cleveland quickly matters, and how Mike Brown may need to adjust against the Cavaliers’ size. They also examine Karl-Anthony Towns’ role as a point center, the value of shooters like Landry Shamet and Deuce McBride, and how the Knicks can avoid falling flat while chasing a commanding 2-0 lead.
