We've all had the same dream. If you, like me, grew up in a suburb as a big basketball guy, you had a hoop in your driveway. Even if you grew up in a city and didn't have a basketball hoop in your driveway, you still likely had the same thing happen to you when you were shooting around on your own as a kid. Game 7 of the NBA Finals, down 1, ball in your hand playing for the Knicks.
Fate almost brought Towns to the Knicks nine years ago. After dominating at St. Joseph High School, he was a consensus five-star recruit, committing to play for coach John Calipari at Kentucky. His numbers in college don't stand out but he was named a Second-Team All-American.
