Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns on Mitchell Robinson: “He’s one of a kind. I don’t know if there’s another Mitch Robinson in the league. I only think there’s Mitchell Robinson. There’s only one of him. We’re honored and blessed to have him.”

Knicks coach Mike Brown: “I’m scared to death one of these teams are going to poach my guys. I’m surprised nobody has come at Chris Jent for a head job yet. He’s won Summer League and he’s a lead assistant here. Jordan Brink is fantastic. He’s been doing this (challenges) two years in a row.”
The Atlanta Hawks signed coach Quin Snyder to a multi-year extension today, which was first reported by HoopsHype as something to monitor on April 12th in the story below.
The Chicago Bulls are adding Alex Kaufman as Windy City Bulls general manager and Jarrett Sutton as a scout, league sources told HoopsHype. Kaufman and Sutton worked with Bulls executive Bryson Graham for six years with the New Orleans Pelicans.
Mike Brown on Landry Shamet: “He’s been a journeyman, but he probably deserved more of an opportunity because what he does out on the floor on both ends is very hard to find, especially at his size, with is mental and physical toughness. We gave him an opportunity and showed him we loved him.”
Victor Wembanyama: “Winning the Larry O'Brien is a childhood dream and having a real shot at it, having a chance, a tangible chance at winning it, realizing a dream, it's a lifetime chance. You never know what's going to happen again… It's almost like the meaning of my life.”
Knicks coach Mike Brown on Jose Alvarado: “Imma f****** clap for Jose. Sorry mom. Jose was unbelievable tonight. He changed the game. His speed. His ability to touch the paint.”
Mike Brown on OG Anunoby: “I don’t know if there’s a play bigger than any other play in the history of Knicks basketball.”
Mike Brown: “I never thought I’d be in an NBA Finals & see a team get 24 FT attempts in the 2nd half to another team’s 8. San Antonio’s a great team. It’s going to lower our odds big time if we play Game 4 & in the 2nd half they get 24 free throws to our 8. Maybe we were fouling but they fouled too”
Sources: The Sacramento Kings and Charlotte Hornets had exploratory trade talks on a Domantas Sabonis trade involving Miles Bridges.
