Karl-Anthony Towns and the Knicks: A Star at Crossroads—What’s Next for New York’s Future?
A lot of other teams might opt to go after the two big men in isolation. The Pacers do that when the timing is right, but theyâve found the best way to cause problems is to keep them moving off the ball.
This play ends in poor defense from Towns, but perhaps he wouldâve been better in the pick-and-roll if he hadnât had to spend the possession chasing someone around the perimeter.
When Pacers forward Pascal Siakam is in, Robinson has to guard him if Towns is on the floor. That presents problems because Robinsonâs DNA screams at him to protect the paint. Siakam take advantages by simply moving any time Robinson moves away from him.
