If Mike Breen and Wally Szczerbiak were running out of talking points for Saturday’s second preseason game between the Knicks and the Wolves, they can now go call and thank Stefan Bondy of the New York Post.
Just around 24 hours ago, Bondy himself published a story headlined by Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau’s praises of Karl-Anthony Towns.
“He’s as gifted as they come,” Thibs said about his former player.
Thibs and Towns, just in case, shared the locker room in Minny. The Wolves ended up firing the coach—and president of the organization then—before the end of the 2019 season ahead of his move to the New York Knicks.
