Imagine having to game plan to stop Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, only to remember that the Knicks also have Mikal Bridges, OG Anunoby and Josh Hart in their starting lineup. Imagine thinking you’re getting a breather from one of those guys when Landry Shamet and Miles McBride come in, only for them to do what the starters did in shorter minutes.

New York has a plethora of shot-making that has overwhelmed opponents all playoffs. It’s multiple players every night getting shots to drop through the net at a satisfying rate. In the Knicks’ Game 3 victory, four of the five starters shot above 50 percent from the floor and three of those guys finished with 20-plus point. Oh, and then Shamet came off the bench and added 14 points.

The Knicks are on pace to be the most efficient postseason shooting team since the Lakers in 1987 (minimum one round played).
