Should the Boston Celtics be worried about the New York Knicks?
On Friday, September 27, the New York Knicks struck a blockbuster trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves to send Karl-Anthony Towns to the big apple. In doing so, New York instantly became the Boston Celtics biggest threat in the Eastern Conference. Tom Thibodeau now has a roster capable of standing toe-to-toe with Joe Mazzulla’s team and potentially securing a win.
As such, the Celtics must begin exploring ways to break down the Knicks new-look unit. They will undoubtedly use the upcoming season-opener to begin gaining information on how New York is likely to play this season, as the Celtics keep one eye on the conference finals. Towns will ensure the Knicks are capable of running a five-out offense similar to the one Boston has utilized under Mazzulla.
During a recent episode of “The Celtics Pod” hosts Adam Taylor and Tim Sheils dissect the Knicks latest trade and how it could affect the Celtics moving forward. The question whether the Knicks are now ahead of the Philadelphia 76ers in the East, and whether the Celtics should be concerned as they look to defend their NBA championship.
