The second-seeded New York Knicks recently made a game-changing decision to utilize star Karl-Anthony Towns as their primary pivot and, in turn, slide Mitchell Robinson down to the second unit.
The results have been quite successful, as they've gone 7-1 since the official shift was made and boast a point differential of +12.8 with such a lineup configuration.
Now, though this experiment has clearly done wonders for New York's on-court attack, especially in the scoring department, where they're averaging 125.4 points per 100 possessions with Towns at center, it's also a bit bittersweet, for there's now a case to be made that Robinson's time in orange and blue could realistically have an expiration date of February 5, or possibly even sooner.
