Tom Thibodeau says that Karl-Anthony Towns can be a dominant force as long as he stays aggressive

00:00Obviously, Towns, 20 in the fourth.

00:03Was there a concerted effort to seek him and hunt him,

00:06especially with the lineups that you've had?

00:07Yeah, well, I think that's sort of the mantra of the team.

00:11They're unselfish guys when someone gets going.

00:14You try to continue to keep them going, you know,

00:18and that's recognizing what's working.

00:20And so it was everyone working together to find open shots for them,

00:24which I think is important.

00:26And Cat, as we know, is a very gifted scorer.

00:28He can score three different levels.

00:31He's comfortable at the three-point line.

00:33He's comfortable putting it on the floor.

00:34He's comfortable playing back to the basket.

00:37So as long as he stays aggressive, you know, it's a huge plus for us.

00:43So you're down 2-1 in this series.

00:44I'd love to know what you make of this series so far.

00:49It's a series.

00:50Unpredictable.

00:52I mean, obviously, no lead's safe.

00:56And both teams are going to continue to fight to the buzzer.

01:02And I've got a lot of respect for them over there.

01:05And we just got to continue to keep playing our style of basketball

01:09and keep grinding it out.

01:10And all that together, I've got to continue to do with the guy.

01:20And then we'll keep playing our style of basketball.

01:24And then we'll see you next time.

01:27And then we'll be back.

01:28And then we'll see you next time.
