Excellent shooting ability and no big problem in defense. Should the Knicks reuse him in G6?
9:33pm, 31 May 2025Basketball
In the previous NBA Eastern Conference Finals G5, the New York Knicks, who played at home, defeated the Indiana Pacers 111-94, completing the Jedi victory. Next, both sides will return to the Indianapolis series G6 game. The Pacers still hold the match point, while the Knicks are still facing a back-to-back battle in G6, and they are still on the verge of being eliminated.
In this game, Landry Shamet, the Knicks' substitute backcourt player, still got playing time at the last moment of the game, and he also played his role in his limited playing time. Shamet played 14 minutes and 14 seconds in the whole game, made 2 of 3 shots and 1 of 2 from outside the three-point line, scored 5 points, 1 rebound and 1 steal, and had 1 turnover and 2 fouls, with a plus-negative value of +6. Shamet also showed his due shooting ability on the offensive end. He also seized the opportunity and made two mid- and long-distance shots, posing a certain threat to his opponent. At least in this game, Shamet's disadvantage on the defensive end was not reflected, and he maintained a high degree of stability on the defensive end. Overall, Shamet has played a good role in both offense and defense, which also proves that he is also a player with relatively comprehensive abilities.
In the NBA regular season this season, Shamet made a total of 50 appearances in 82 games, averaging 15.2 minutes per game, averaging 5.7 points, 1.2 rebounds, 0.5 assists and 0.5 steals, 0.4 turnovers and 1 foul, with a shooting percentage of 46.1%, a three-point shooting percentage of 39.7%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 66.7%. So far in the playoffs, the Knicks have played 10 games in the first 17 games, averaging 6.7 minutes, averaging 1.4 points, 0.4 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 0.1 steals, 0.4 turnovers and 0.3 fouls, shooting percentage of 38.5%, three-point shooting percentage of 37.5%, and free throw shooting percentage of 25%.
Shamet actually showed good personal abilities during the regular season, especially on the offensive end. His performance was actually quite highlighted, and he also had very good outside shooting ability. However, in the playoffs, Shamet could not appear in the team's rotation lineup, and his playing time was very limited, and it was difficult for him to play more gorgeous data in this situation. In fact, judging from the current situation, the Knicks substitute players have very limited scoring ability, and Shamet's shooting ability is there. In fact, judging from the situation in this round of the series, Shamet doesn't seem to have much problem on the defensive end. Considering that the Knicks are still facing a back-to-back battle in their next game, maybe they can consider giving Shamet more opportunities?
