Knicks guard Landry Shamet, once a standout on a minimum contract, has struggled significantly as the playoffs begin, continuing a slump from the regular season. In the first two games against the Hawks, he shot poorly, including a scoreless performance in Game 2, prompting coach Mike Brown to favor Jose Alvarado over him. With Shamet and Miles McBride struggling as point guard options, the Knicks face concerns about their bench depth. CJ McCollum, meanwhile, embraced the crowd’s hostility in Game 2, suggesting it fueled his performance.
