Karl-Anthony Towns' personal goals for the 16-17 season are based on how the
Minnesota Timberwolves perform.
"Personal goals are based on team," said Towns. "We’ve got to make the
playoffs. We’ve got to do something special, and it’s up to us to
continue to work and to make that happen."
這位超級新人新賽季的目標當然以球隊為主。「我們必須進入季後賽，做些特別的努力，
當然這取決於我們不斷地鍛鍊自己。」
Towns was also asked how he sees his game evolving.
"I think it’s going to be much much better," said Towns. "I’ve had a whole
season to learn under KG [Kevin Garnett]. I just feel that I can be a much
better player. Having a whole year to learn and have the whole year to see
for myself what it takes, I feel I’m going to be a much better leader from
a player standpoint. I will take what I’ve learned in one season and build
upon it. It’s going to be awesome."
被問到個人與球隊的結合，Towns 看起來很有自信也頗樂觀。
「我想將會迎來一個更好的球季。過去一整年我都在 KG 底下學習，讓我感覺自己
能變得更強大了。 一年的學習讓我獲益良多，帶著這些歷練，未來會建築在如此
美好的起始上，相信會是很棒的賽季。」
Towns will be playing for Tom Thibodeau this season and was asked how that
has gone so far.
"He’s taught me a lot so far," said Towns. "He’s really smart, he’s a
great guy. I look at him not even as my coach, but as a good friend of mine,
and that’s how it has to be. If we want to be able to go to another spot to
something greater, we have to always be on the same page and have a good
rapport. That’s what we do have."
如大家所知，前公牛隊教頭 Thibodeau 加入灰狼，開啟新的一段旅程，
Towns 也非常歡迎這位名教頭的到來:「他不僅僅是我的教練，我也將他視為
一位好朋友，他執教非常聰明，更是個很好的人。若下個賽季要走得更遠，
我們必須有著相同的理想，而這正是我們都擁有的。」
