What's most disappointing is that I still think Karl-Anthony Towns is more skilled, more talented than any big in the NBA. He just doesn't play with the same mentality and maturity as the other oft-referenced elite bigs in the league.
Offensively yeah, but he seems to be retarded on defense.
His deficiencies on that end definitely fall in that mental/maturity category. There's nothing physically holding him back from being really good on that end. He's mobile. He's long. He's a plenty solid athlete for his position. He just doesn't make good decisions consistently.

The bad decisions go beyond defense. He's led the league in offensive fouls for multiple seasons...

Yeah, the barreling into defenders and throwing hands up is also beyond stupid.

Can he actually be a PF?
