Part 6/8:
Carl Anthony Towns, another prominent player in the league, also touched on the importance of defense in achieving lasting success. Quoting a common adage that "offense wins games, defense wins championships," Towns stressed the need for the Knicks to refocus their efforts on defensive strategies.
Towns shared insights from his own experiences, affirming that last season's success for his former team was largely due to their defensive capabilities. He echoed the sentiment that while offensive stats might be a point of pride, without a strong defensive foundation to complement it, the Knicks may struggle to compete effectively in the postseason.
