Karl Anthony-Towns needs to play power forward. They tried this, but with Gorgui, who is a bench guy at best.

It's not going to work, having KAT -- a revolving door on defense -- protecting the rim.

He needs a quality role-playing center that rebounds and defends hard. Sets screens and catches lobs. Think Deandre Jordan 5-6 years ago, or Tyson Chandler in Dallas/NYC -- that's what Minnesota needs.


He MUST embrace his Dirk-ness.




Is there someway they could get Andre Drummond? He's still relatively young, and not sure why Cleveland got him.

They might be able to steal him in a mid-season Cleveland fire sale.

Drummond isn't the most elite defender, but he's big, athletic, physical and rebounds hard. Plays his role.

Until Towns shows he can carry a team at both ends they aren't going anywhere

He is absolutely Dirk-esque in the way he just shuffles his feet around. Both guys had the ability to make athletic and graceful plays, but seem to save if for offense.

Drummond might be getable, because the Pistons are probably going to be broken up soon. Nerlens Noel might be another guy to go get.

I think the TWolves are screwed tbh. You could put together a really good offense behind KAT and DLo, but they don't seem very serious about defense or hustle.

there are a lot of players who dont carry their team on both ends and are going somewhere
