Who did Air Corgi pick for Spurs-Knicks NBA Finals?

After going a perfect seven for seven in the Spurs-Thunder series, Air Corgi is back and finally shared her prediction for the NBA Finals. While she expects a long series, it may be best for New York fans to look away.

It wouldn't be too surprising with the series going seven games, but if Air Corgi gets every game correct again, it would be quite the feat.

Here is the clip of Air Corgi's per-game predictions:

Game 1: Spurs lead 1-0

Air Corgi, who also goes by Steph Furry, chose the Spurs to open the series with a win at home. The cute dog believes Victor Wembanyama will win his first-ever NBA Finals appearance in front of the San Antonio faithful.

Game 2: Series tied 1-1

According to the predictor, Game 2 will be won by New York on the road. The Knicks would equal the series with a win on Friday if the Spurs do, in fact, take the opening game as Air Corgi predicts.

Game 3: Knicks lead 2-1

Fasten your seatbelt, Knicks fans. According to Air Corgi, the team will have a lead in the NBA Finals with a Game 3 win! A win here wouldn't be too shocking, as the Madison Square Garden crowd will be deafening in watching their first Finals game since 1999.

Game 4: Series tied 2-2

The series lead for the Knicks will be short-lived, according to Steph Furry. The Spurs will bring the series back to level after the fourth game of this series. The dog, thus far, has chosen the away team to win the second matchup of each road trip.

Game 5: Spurs lead 3-2

In their return to San Antonio, the Spurs will reportedly win their second game of the series in a row. According to Air Corgi's shot trajectory for this game, the ball rolled out of the Knicks' bucket and into the adjacent Spurs one. Expect a close and painful New York loss.

Game 6: Series tied 3-3

While returning home for a must-win Game 6, the Knicks should have no trouble in taking the do-or-die game. Air Corgi chose New York to prevail on a decisive, off-the-handrail shot that looked surefire as soon as it left her snout.

Game 7: Spurs win 4-3

In a series that will go the distance, according to the corgi, San Antonio will win the final game at home and win their first NBA Championship since 2014. If the result holds, Knicks fans around the world will be shattered.

If the series does in fact go seven games and the Spurs win, New York's first thought will be that it is Steph Furry's fault.

Air Corgi NBA picks

Despite being "just a dog," Air Corgi was able to predict the correct outcome of every 2026 Western Conference Finals game. She went a perfect seven for seven in her winner predictions for each game.

Air Corgi also predicted the Knicks to win the first three games of their Eastern Conference Finals bout against the Cleveland Cavaliers. While she got that correct, and the fourth game's ball was about to go in New York's bucket, it rimmed out and led to the Cavs taking two games in that series, according to the corgi.

Steph Furry unfortunately did not do too hot in her Eastern Conference Semifinals picks, choosing Cleveland to beat the Detroit Pistons in six games. Maybe this is the ray of sunshine Knicks fans want to hear after only hearing about the dog's perfection as of late.
