I want to reiterate that. However, it would behoove the Knicks to start finding alternative ways to get there, particularly in the rare instances when the offense is faulty. “Obviously, we just want to be the best we can be,” Karl-Anthony Towns said. “The Miami Heat, years ago with LeBron, it took a whole year for them before they figured it out and put a banner up. Other teams … it took 75 percent of the season and they figured it out. You don’t know. I don’t have a crystal ball in front of me to tell you how long before things are fully clicking at a consistent level, but I think, for us, we’ve showed spurts of consistency and what we can be when things are clicking at a high level and everything is going smooth. I can’t tell you an exact time, but I can tell you that every day we work on being the best version of ourselves and how we can show that to our fans and the city.” -via New York Times / December 12, 2024 In October 2024, he dealt away Karl-Anthony Towns a few months after the franchise’s best season in 20 years. That kind of chutzpah has won him the admiration of some of his peers. The Timberwolves were one of two teams aside from the Thunder and Celtics that was able to snag a first-place vote. “I just like that Tim doesn’t give a f—,” one executive said. -via New York Times / December 11, 2024 Matt Norlander: John Calipari opens his presser by talking on speakerphone to Karl-Anthony Towns. Safe to say he’s feeling pretty good. -via Bluesky / December 11, 2024
