Hopefully it’s until Mitch comes back

honestly if there’s a coach out there i trust to get the best out of towns at the 5 it’s thibs. he did it in minnesota with a less mature towns

KAT had his worst net rating in the playoffs at the 5 under Thibs. In fact, the only time he was a positive was when he played the 4.

It’s possible things can be different this time around though. I’m hoping mark Bryant can turn him into that anchor like he did to Ayton when they went to the finals.

Is Brunson a ball stopper or deuce since they lead the team in average seconds with per touch? It just says to me that Towns isn’t asked to create a lot of offense.


That IS part of it too but 3.8 as a PF is a very long avg time of possession. 1.9 for KAT means a lot of ball movement and he scores 20 on 20 less touches. Very efficient

He's more comparable to Giannis, Tatum, and KD though because he ran point for us. His time of possession is under all 3 of those guys. Randle isn't a good passer, but I'd blame Thibs' point Randle bull Randle didn't play like that pre Thibs.


I can’t pretend that Julius didn’t over dribble but he was asked to be 2nd option and creator for the team. He was playing more like a wing than a big. Of course he’d have more time on ball than someone that’s asked to just finish plays. Which was more my point than saying either was good or bad. Just a difference in roles and expectations. Just gives me another concern that the wolves reduced Towns touches and time on ball and they had their best season. We’re really relying on him and Mikal to replace Julius’s and Donte’s usage. If they can’t, we’re asking Brunson to do even more. Which has been a concern of mine since we trade IQ and RJ.

This is nuts… you only got OG and went in a minute tied for the best defense and the best offense during January beating all the contenders

How can you put on the same sentence Jeff Teague with Brunson, Lavine with Bridges, Anunoby with whatever scrub they had at 3

Even with elite defenders around KAT it hasn’t worked.. yet
It's quite possible Minnesota feels comfortable with Towns at the five, surrounded by elite perimeter defenders—but lineups with Towns at the pivot haven't yielded the best results on defense. In Minnesota's most played lineup excluding Gobert, and Towns at the five, the Wolves gave up 122 points per 100 possessions—ranking in the 21st percentile.
