Mike Brown said one part of the regular season is about "trying to figure out what works best for your team long-term." Brown experimented with both Jalen Brunson and Karl Anthony Towns off the floor in the first two games of the year. "We didn’t really do that last year. Watching it, I think we did it in the preseason some, but we didn’t play everybody all the time so it was a little harder. But watching (lineups without Brunson and Towns in the first two games), I didn’t like it. So last game was the first game that I went back to (playing lineups with either Towns or Brunson). So there’s some things that I’m looking at or messing with that may or may not stay the same. That’s part of what you’re trying to do to figure out what’s best for your team long term."
