00:00On a night where Jalen Brunson was Captain Clutch again, the MVP of this game, the best player for the
00:06Knicks in this game was Karl-Anthony Towns.
00:08Because if Towns doesn't play like he did in that third quarter, we don't even get to Jalen Brunson having
00:14a chance to save the game and have those heroics.
00:17What Karl-Anthony Towns did, and we put the numbers on the screen, phenomenal.
00:22We're showing you the highlights on offense and rebounding and defense, and he absolutely stymied Victor Wimbanyama.
00:30Pat was awesome. He was tough. He was smart. He was calculated. He was aggressive.
00:34The stat page, dramatic. Stat page was incredible. The feel was even better.
00:40And this, to me, is why I was screaming all week long here on Shine Time, including yesterday,
00:47and I nailed it, that Karl-Anthony Towns absolutely positively would be the best player in the game.
00:57He would dominate on every single face.
01:00There's something at ease here now about Karl-Anthony Towns.
01:04And it doesn't mean at ease like he's hanging on the perimeter or not giving a damn.
01:09He's in a great frame of mind in terms of how he's playing confidence level-wise on defense.
01:15And, you know, he trusts Mike Brown and, you know, the point center.
01:20And not often do you have a scorer like Karl-Anthony Towns.
01:26It's mesmerizing. It's incredible.
01:28The MVP for the Knicks last night, the best player on the court in game number one,
01:34was absolutely, positively Karl-Anthony Towns.
