The New York Knicks earned a lifeline in their Eastern Conference finals series against the Indiana Pacers on Thursday.

Discussing the "dumb" flaw, during a post-game interview, the TNT analyst asked:

"Why do you be getting them dumb fouls?"

KAT seemed to have no proper explanation for Charles Barkley's straightforward question as he expressed that he didn't know the reason.

"God only knows," he retorted.

Towns, who recorded a double-double, picked up five personal fouls during the game. Nevertheless, the center's performance was significant in the Knicks' Game 5 win as they hope to repeat the result on Monday.
