Towns fuels Knicks to even series with pinch-post offense
Knicks tied the Eastern Conference first-round series at 2-2 by making Karl-Anthony Towns the playmaking hub in a pinch-post attack, aided by Brunson’s off-ball screens and sharp cuts by Anunoby. Towns notched the first playoff triple-double (20 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists) as the team’s spacing and cuts looked markedly improved in Game 4, a contrast to Games 1–3. Atlanta will adjust for Game 5, but if the Knicks maintain precise spacing and screens, Towns can continue to drive the offense.
