After the incredible upset in the first game, won after overtime, the New York Knicks confirmed their superiority in the second challenge, convincingly defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers with a score of 109-93 and taking a 2-0 lead in the NBA Eastern Conference Finals.
The New York five are now considered favorites to secure the grand final of the American basketball championship, an achievement that has been missing since 1999, while the dream of the title remains more alive than ever after more than fifty years of waiting.
The Knicks continue their fantastic playoff run, not losing a game since falling 2-1 to Atlanta in the first round. The team is currently on a nine-game winning streak.
Jalen Brunson didn't need to be the hero of the evening, but he was still decisive with 19 points and 14 assists, leading the team to another important victory.
The series now shifts to Ohio, where the Cavaliers will play the next two games at home, on Saturday and Monday. Cleveland will look to overturn a 2-0 deficit, just as it did in the previous round against the Detroit Pistons.
