New York Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau holds back the celebration after defeting the Memphis Grizzlies by 37
The Memphis Grizzlies’ rotations go 11 players deep. They boast two All-Stars: electrifying guard Ja Morant and Defensive Player of the Year Jaren Jackson Jr. Their reserves are stacked with size, with the first four players off the bench standing 6-5 or taller.
The five-time All-Star posted 14 points and 10 rebounds, but his performance wasn’t enough to silence critics, especially Golden State Warriors veteran Draymond Green, who delivered a scathing critique of Towns’ approach to the game.
Before losing to the Dallas Mavericks 4-1 in the Western Conference Finals, the Minnesota Timberwolves stunningly beat the 2023 NBA champion Nuggets in a massive Game 7 comeback. Aside from Timberwolves star guard Anthony Edwards ' heroics, Towns' shocking defensive performance set the tone for what the Knicks see in the 2024-25 season.
New York doesn’t have to do anything between now and the trade deadline to reach its goals. The Knicks have been fine with the roster as is. With that said, the sense around the league is that the Knicks will do something minor in order to bolster their bench, whether sooner by getting a player back in a trade or later in the buyout market.
After being held to just 17 points in the Knicks' win over the Nuggets on Wednesday, three-time MVP Nikola Jokic praised New York and assessed their chances at a title this season.
