I know what teams are trying to do against the Knicks and it's working.

0:04.9

And that's the thing that really concerns me about the postseason.

0:08.4

Because I don't know that they can be much better defensively with their best players on the court.

0:14.4

And if you're not going to be better defensively with your best players on the court,

0:17.9

you better be maximizing every bit of offense that you have. And that's

0:22.1

one thing they're not doing. Because remember that, what was it, the Shaq interview with Carl Anthony Towns? He's like, you got to be great. You got to be great. He's like, well, I'm trying to get better. No, no, no, no, no, you got to be number two. You got to be great. One A, one A. He's a, like, that's

0:36.4

simplistically

0:37.2

that's what it is.

0:39.5

Like he has to be

0:40.7

we have to that'd be great. 1A, 1A. He's a hunt, like, that's simplistically, that's what it is.

And I just, I don't know if collectively this team can get that out of him. I know he didn't have a double, double last night, but, you know, according to Jerry, and rightfully so, because the statistics will tell you this, he's a double

1:16.8

double machine. The question is, is when and where, how is it happening? Well, yeah, I mean,

1:21.9

it's not, it's, this is a beyond the numbers type of thing. And, and if you, you've watched this team throughout the entire year,

it's the most confusing thing to me is why this guy is not getting the basketball in positions for him to succeed.

1:40.9

Every single game, multiple times a game, throughout the game, not just all of a sudden

1:45.4
