The challenge for Brown between now and when the playoffs commence will be figuring out if there’s a way to make all of this work. In the postseason, teams will take pages from Houston’s book, consistently hunting Brunson and Towns either separately or in tandem. Figuring out rotations might be an issue too, especially considering some of New York’s issues with double-big lineups and finding anyone who can actually initiate offense outside of Brunson, etc. Consider this: Towns, according to Synergy tracking data, is allowing opponents to shoot 62.5% on shots he directly defended. For context, former teammate Donte DiVincenzo, close in quantity of shots defended, has fared better.
