New York City is all set for the NBA Finals. 
The Knicks lead the San Antonio Spurs two games to none. 
Game three is tomorrow night. 
Ike Ejachi has a preview. 
Tonight, Madison Square Garden prepares to host game three of the NBA Finals, the first Finals game on this floor in 27 years. 
The Garden going to be rocking, and the city we love our Knicks. 
So, um they're going to come out, show love, support, and you know, the energy is going to be electric. 
Last time, 1999. 
Same opponent, same stage. 
The Knicks have not lost a game since April 23rd. 
One of the longest playoff streaks in NBA history. 
Game one in San Antonio, a 10-point Knicks win. 
Game two, a one-point nail-biter. 
AFTER A COSTLY TURNOVER from Spurs superstar Victor Wembanyama. 
We did a lot of things wrong, but we also were relentless. 
But the Spurs aren't giving up. 
Head coach Mitch Johnson says the team is not played up to their standard. 
We got one game tomorrow night at 8:30 in Madison Square Garden. 
It's the only game that matters, and we got to come in here ready to win it. 
San Antonio says they understand the challenge. 
Teams with a 2-0 series lead have gone on to win the series 86% of the time. 
For the Knicks, Jalen Brunson exclusively telling ABC it's important 
to stay the course, and that the team is ready to meet the moment. 
Obviously, things are different, things are heightened or whatever, but the approach, the mentality, all this all this has to stay the same. 
Lindsay, in order to get inside tomorrow night, you're going to have to pay. 
After the final whistle in game two, the cheapest tickets spiked to nearly $12,000, and those top seats, over $100,000, surpassing the Super Bowl. 
Huge money there. 
All right, Ike Ejachi, thanks. 
To you, game three is tomorrow night at 8:00 p.m. Eastern right here on ABC, and tomorrow morning on GMA, more of Will Reeve's exclusive interview with the Knicks' Jalen Brunson and his dad.
