it's a terrible job by those players for holding on to that that Carl Anthony Towns was not willing to play defense that he's soft until after the Knicks loss say it while the season's going on I think they may have actually said it to the reporters and the reporters just held it well then a terrible job by those reporters I mean what are we

Allow me to be the one to criticize Jalen Brunson, OK? Because he's our best player. He's the guy. He's the reason. Because Dallas didn't think he was very good. The Knicks thought he was going to be good. Not this good. But he's turned out to be great. He got them to the Eastern Conference semifinals a year ago, Eastern Conference finals this year.

We also conveniently forget that Jason Tatum got hurt in the series against the Knicks for Boston. But Jalen Brunson is the leader of that team. He is the leader. Jalen Brunson, how about you work on your defense? Because when they see the leader, because he's a defensive liability for that team.

When the rest of the team sees the guy who's the leader, who's never going to be criticized, working hard to improve his defensive game, the rest of them will fall in line. This is on Jalen Brunson. You can blame Carl Anthony Towns all you want. Jalen Brunson is their best player. If he wins, he gets all the credit. And when they lose, he deserves at least a portion of the blame.

Dan, what do you do with the fact, when a guy has all the physical traits, all the physical ability to be a good defender at the rim, and yet he's not, what do you do with that?

I was frustrated the same amount at Carl Anthony Towns as I was at Jalen Brunson for playing.

But Dan, when you have a guy of that size with those physical traits, with ridiculous ability, he does. For a guy who was that tall in the last three seasons, he's .6 blocks per game. You have to start questioning some things.
