Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama admits to losing control in Game 2: I’m still very blurry

The San Antonio Spurs are in a historic hole, and their superstar is feeling the fog of war. Following a heartbreaking 105-104 loss to the New York Knicks in Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Friday, Victor Wembanyama admitted the game spun out of his control. The defeat leaves the Spurs in a grim 0-2 deficit before the series shifts to Madison Square Garden on Monday.

With 13.6 seconds left and the game tied at 104, Wembanyama grabbed a crucial defensive rebound. But the reigning Defensive Player of the Year made a costly mistake, tossing a blind pass toward rookie Stephon Castle. Knicks guard Jalen Brunson intercepted the ball, drew a foul on Wembanyama, and hit the game-winning free throw. Wembanyama missed a potential game-winning jumper on the final possession.

“I’m still very blurry, and that’s the whole problem,” Wembanyama told reporters after the game. “I need to have more poise, more control over the game.”

The 22-year-old center confessed he could not even recall the final three possessions of the game. It is a stunning admission from the generationally talented big man, who is learning just how unforgiving the Finals stage can be.

The Knicks have now won 13 consecutive games overall, including eight straight on the road this postseason. Meanwhile, the Spurs face a statistical nightmare. No team in NBA history has ever lost the first two games of the Finals at home and rallied to win the championship.

San Antonio fell 105-95 in Game 1 and squandered a prime opportunity to even the series on Friday night. Head coach Mitch Johnson and the Spurs must find answers quickly. If Wembanyama cannot shake the blur and regain his composure, the Knicks will cruise to a title in front of their crazed fanbase.
