Could the New York Knicks Finally Break Their Finals Drought and Shock the NBA World?

Mitchell Robinson Matters

On the surface, it seems like a player who averages 3.6 PPG and is on pace for the worst free throw shooting season in NBA history (22.2%) should have little bearing on whether a team wins or not, but Robinson sits third on the team among rotation players in on-court rating (plus-13.4 points per 100 possessions).

Although he’s a limited offensive player, Robinson bolsters New York’s offense through his ability to generate second chances. The Knicks are in the 99th percentile in offensive rating in his minutes. Second chances vastly improve the margin for error on offense and Robinson’s ability to keep possessions alive is a big factor in New York’s offensive success.
