Brown leads the Knicks to a 13-game winning streak on their way to the championship. June 7th - According to the Associated Press, the New York Knicks won Game 2 of the NBA Finals . They now lead the series 2-0 against the San Antonio Spurs and will return to their home court in New York with a two-game winning streak .

 

With this victory, the Knicks have extended their playoff winning streak to 13 games this season, tying the second-longest single-season playoff winning streak in NBA history, second only to the 15- game winning streak set by the Golden State Warriors in 2017 .

 

However, the Knicks suffered two consecutive one- point losses during the regular season , plunging them into a slump and leading to criticism of head coach Mike Brown . " Anything can happen, " Brown said at the time. " Many teams have been down 1-2 in a series ; the important thing is to focus on the next game . "

 

So far in this playoff run, the Knicks have won all eight of their away games, averaging a margin of victory of 21.5 points. Although the team has only trailed by double digits in four games, they have managed to come back from those deficits to win, including both of their Finals victories against the Spurs.

 

It's worth mentioning that Brown served as interim head coach during the Warriors' 2017 playoff run and was involved in the team's 15 -game winning streak. Now, he has led the Knicks to a 13- game winning streak, once again becoming a key witness to a historic playoff performance.
