Will they like once the playoffs start, is it back to the Knicks that we sort of started to fall in love with?

Or is it just the same of this?

They don't have an extra level.

I'm buying into Jalen Brunson being their leader.

He still believes and his words say it, his body language says it.

The Carl Anthony Towns thing, yeah, it can be an issue.

I know that's why my weird perspective at the beginning of the season was put him at the four, let Gershon Yabusele play the five just to take some pressure off him, the way Rudy Gobert did with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Gershon, Rudy, different, both French, but very different.

But at the same time, I think Mike Brown knows that.

We know that he – that –

Carl is better not being the five at all times.

And that's why when Mitchell Robinson plays, it's ideal.

But you can't start Mitchell Robinson just because of worries about how many minutes he's going to play.

And also, they want to be able to move the ball.

And so, yeah, I understand Carl Anthony Towns is an ideal in pick and roll situations.

That being said, there are good series.

He did a great job against Nikola Jokic a couple years ago when he had to guard him and they went to the conference finals in that first time.

And the only time that he went to the conference finals with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

But there's just pressure now.

You're the five.
