Knicks head coach Mike Brown doesn’t see Karl-Anthony Towns’ All-Star candidacy as a debate — not even close. There is “no question,” Brown said, that Towns belongs in the Eastern Conference’s All-Star field, even amid what some might label a down season by the center’s lofty standards. For a Knicks team firmly in the mix for the No. 1 seed, Brown views Towns as an automatic selection. “KAT’s averaging a double-double. He’s over 20 points a game and over 10 rebounds a game,” Brown said. “And if you’re a top-3 team in either conference and you’re the second-leading scorer — [and] the leading rebounder — you’re an All-Star. There’s no question about it. The only question is: Is he First, Second or Third Team All-NBA, you know?”
