Is Karl-Anthony Towns a Top 10 NBA player after 2 seasons?

[Remote]

He was statistically the worst center in the league when it comes to defense, which is one of the things that was supposed to be a strong point for him.

@Raul odd how you don't mention the shortcomings of your fellow Dominican

He ain't marry a Dominican beauty queen like the god Al Horford.

So he's got that strike against him.

I cant just blame him don't act like Rubio wasn't giving free lanes to the basket I got him right outside the top 10 though crazy thing is he is only 21

Oh, hold up, so now Rubio who everyone says is a good defender is to blame for Towns team defense being horrific?

Towns defense isn't just bad, it was the worst for his position in the entire league, dudes like Kelly Olynyk were better than him on that end of the floor, that isn't anyone's fault but his own.

Sasquatch >>>>> KAT

 

[Versa]

No he is not

1. KD
2. Lebron
3. Curry
4. Harden
5. Kawhi
6. CP3
7. Westbrook
8. Wall
9. AD
10. Giannis

are the current top 10 imo. Honorable mentions are Ya'll "Curious" George, Demarcus Cousins, Damian Lillard, Isaiah Thomas, Blake Griffin and Jimmy Buckets.

Butler not being on that top 10 feels most wrong to me, but I didn't know who to remove. AD's team sucks but I can't say in good faith that Butler is a better basketball player.

not until he gets them to the playoffs

CP3?

Horford is extra soft though


Towns toughness comes from his African American side

 

[Rekkapryde]

His first 2 years statistically are better than EVERYONE's on that list though. And that includes Bron.

Not a CURRENT Top 10 player though, but easy Top 20

 

[Regular_P]

I think Wiggins is a poor fit next to Towns. They should have someone who is more (or more willing) of a playmaker next to him.

LeBron came out of HS, everyone forgets that because of how ridiculous he was.

While true, doesn't diminish that fact.

CP3?

:yousure:

Yeah, CP3 is actually my least favorite player in the entire NBA, but I can't say in good conscious that Towns is better than him.

He completely transformed a franchise known for being a perreniel joke. I mean, they're still a joke, but at least they're a joke that wins 50+ games a year. CP3 is a great shooter, defender, and passer. One of all time greatest point guards.

I think his dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble mentality can hinder his teams. I also think that all the issues LAC has had over the years with needing a dynamic wing that can create their own shot would be mitigated greatly if he'd pass less and shoot the fukking ball more. He's WAY too efficient with way too nice of a handle and touch to not be averaging more shots and points.

He's stubborn as fukk and that's why dudes like Curry and Wall have surpassed him IMO, but he's still one of the best in the L.

Towns gotta play some defense and get his team to the playoffs first.

 

[dappadonna]

He's fukking nasty!

 

[duckbutta]

His defense is absolutely atrocious...

That said...Harden and Westbrook are two of the most atrocious defenders in the league and they are the top 2 mvp candidates...

Nobody knocking them...so I'm not knocking Kat...

I'm taking

Kawhi
Lebron
KD
Wall
Giannis

Over Kat without even thinking about it...anyone else I'm going to need a day a steak and a beer to think it over...

So people shyt on melo for not playing d, yet they don't bring that up for towns

Timberwolves enter critical offseason set on improving dismal defense

Man, people really hate melo for no reason
