Lakers vs Knicks: This season, New York’s offensive has vastly improved. In 2021-22, the Knicks are averaging over 1.09 points per possession, with Julius Randle leading the charge.

Randle is averaging 20.4 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 5.1 assists per game, and he’s surrounded by perimeter shooters who give him plenty of space. In addition to New York’s strengths, the Knicks can take advantage of the Lakers’ flaws. Los Angeles isn’t at full strength due to injuries, and the Lakers’ offense has a few flaws.

The Lakers are second-worst in the NBA in ball security, committing 16.6 turnovers per game, while their free throw accuracy is 74.7 percent, putting them in the bottom ten.

LA, on the other hand, allows the second-most free-throw attempts in the NBA (23.6 per game), as well as the fourth-worst assist rate (25.6 per game). Los Angeles is also in the bottom ten in terms of allowed shooting efficiency, thus New York should be able to generate efficient looks.
