In National Basketball Association news Kurt Helin wrote about the Knicks trade where they received Karl Anthony Towns, Helin said: "the Knicks needed a center and Towns is one of the best in the NBA". Wow. Let's unwrap at bit. KAT can shoot the basketball, and he'll tell you he's the best big man shooter of all time. Which would be terrific but when the Timbereolves FINALLY made the play offs KAT was very busy not being the best big man shooter in the NBA. Open look after open look. Look up the stats. Minnesota had to trade for Dangelo Russell, because they were buddies. DLo doesn't know how to pass the ball so GM KAT got this one way wrong. In Minnesota we were told over and over again KAT needed a real center to compliment his outside shooting. So much for being the best center in the league. Minnesota surrounded KAT with as much help as they could but those player weren't good enough or too old: KG, Derrick Rose are two that come to mind. Then the Wolves got Jimmy Buckets. Jimmy Buckets had the Wolves in 3rd place before an injury forced him out of the line up. The KAT led Wolves finished in a play in game against Denver. Wolves lose, look up Denvers record since. They dropped like a rock in the standings. Remember that center help the greatest shooting center in the history of the NBA needed? We got one. And we made the play offs because we also have Ant Edward's. Look up all those shots that cranked off the rim or airmailed by the greatest shooter of all time. Finally, roll the film, watch the greatest shooting center in the history of the universe cry to officials after every play. Every play. Watch KAT let his team play 4 on 5 while he is crying to the officials. The Knicks were my favorite team prior to the arrival of the T'Wolves, so I'm disappointed the Knicks added the biggest poseur in the history of the NBA but I'm glad he's off this team. The adolation KAT had for himself and the coddling the team had to do because KAT was the greatest shooting center of all time was not worth it. Besides he doesn't play center.
