NEW YORK

• If Knicks want to win with Brunson, KAT cannot be the center. Terrible POA defense requires elite inside defense. They get that.

• Knicks can also get Conley and Dillingham, further bolstering the backup guard spots.

• Brunson-Bridges-Hart-OG-Gobert can play defensively.

• Conley-Kolek-Clarkson-Mo-Huk as a backup unit is lethal.

MINNESOTA

• Wolves are currently 9th in offense and 7th in defense. Most championship teams are top 5 in one of those.

• Divo-Ant-Jaden-Ju-KAT can easily average 100 points a night and is bully ball hell.

• They can make the Thunder foul them endlessly and have the size to blitz Wemby.
