NEW YORK (WABC) -- If the New York Knicks do it Wednesday night, they will be on the doorstep of a championship.

The Knicks can take a 3-1 lead over the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals with a win tonight.

The Spurs won Game 3 on Monday powered by Wembanyama's 32 points, eight rebounds, six assists and three blocked shots. That was the third straight victory by the road team in the series, only the second time that has happened in the NBA Finals.

The other was the series between Chicago and Phoenix in 1993. Michael Jordan eventually put a stop to that by scoring 55 points in Game 4 to lead the eventual champion Bulls to the victory on their home floor.

Win or lose, Game 5 is Saturday in San Antonio, and if the road success continues Wednesday, the series would return to New York for Game 6 on Tuesday.

The Knicks, seeking their first championship since 1973, will be trying to bounce back after the Spurs snapped their 13-game winning streak on Monday.

Game 4 tips off on Wednesday night at 8:30 p.m. on ABC 7, your home for the NBA Finals.

Watch party outside MSG canceled for Game 4

The Knicks say there will be no watch party outside Madison Square Garden.

Fans are being directed to Wollman Rink, which is already sold out.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani posted a response to his X account following the announcement, saying the city approved a permit for a watch party for 999 fans.

Knicks owner Dolan scoffed at the limitation, calling the mayor and the police commissioner "party poopers," but the NYPD pointed out MSG only sought a permit for 500-999 people.

Dolan also complained about the secure zone established around the arena.

"You have an easier chance of getting into Area 51 today than you do into Madison Square Garden," Dolan said. "You would think we were guarding Fort Knox"

An MSG official said in a statement, "The Knicks never agreed to what the city proposed. So the watch party outside MSG was not cancelled in the traditional sense. The Knicks do not agree to what the city proposed."
