Karl-Anthony Towns acing Knicks audition with MVP-worthy start
NY Post
This may be hard to believe, given that he’s become the crown prince of New York basketball in almost every way, but it wasn’t even like this for Jalen Brunson. Two-plus years into his tenure as the face of the Knicks, we tend to simply believe that modern Knicks history can be divided into two parts:
Before Jalen.
And After Jalen.
And in truth, that’s not far off, where we sit right now, today. Still, when Brunson began his time as a Knick, expectations had been curtailed with the 37-45 buzzkill of 2021-22. It felt like the Leon Rose/Tom Thibodeau partnership had taken a step backward, and though the Brunson signing in July 2022 had been widely hailed, over those first 25 games of Brunson’s time as a Knick, nobody — not even Rose — knew quite what Brunson would be.
