"We lost balls, we didn't execute well": Karl-Anthony Towns, no excuses after falling to the Spurs

Juan López - 09 Jun 2026
Karl-Anthony Towns couldn't prevent the Knicks' defeat against the Spurs at Madison Square Garden.

Karl-Anthony Towns, unlike his coach Mike Brown, refused to use officiating as an explanation for the New York Knicks' loss to the San Antonio Spurs in the third game of the NBA Finals (the first one played at the Madison) and pointed directly to the team's mistakes.

"That didn't cost us the game," stated the center. "We turned the ball over, didn't execute well, and didn't do what had allowed us to win thirteen straight games. That's how you lose a match, especially in the playoffs."
