The Knicks, led by new coach Willie Brown, are struggling in their playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks. Despite Browns attempts to improve the teams offense and defense, the Knicks star players, Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, are leaving gaps in the defense that playoff teams are exploiting. Browns decision to limit the minutes of rim protector Mitchell Robinson and stagger Brunson and Towns has resulted in a poor performance from the Knicks bench. The teams transition defense has also declined, and they lack the defensive balance needed to compete for a title.
