Knicks inside player: We lost two home courts early, we shouldn t make such a mistake

In the previous NBA playoff Eastern Conference Finals G6, the Indiana Pacers, who returned to their home court, defeated the New York Knicks 125-108, locking the total score of the series at 4-2. After this game, the Pacers successfully advanced to the season finals and will compete with the Oklahoma City Thunder for the championship, while the Knicks were eliminated. After this game, Knicks' inside player Mitchell Robinson was interviewed by reporters, in which he also talked about his performance and the team during the playoffs.

In summarizing his performance and the team this season, Mitchell said: To be honest, I feel really bad now. Brother, I feel really bad, I don’t even know what to say at this moment. I missed most of the season due to injury this season, and I didn't finish my comeback until the end of February or early March. Then my teammates and I continued to fight to this stage. I'm very happy to have reached this point, we beat a lot of opponents and entered the Eastern Conference Finals, which is already a good result. But to be honest, we should have done a little better. We lost two wins early in this series at home, and we have been in a passive position since then. It is really inappropriate to make such mistakes.

In the NBA regular season this season, Robinson was affected by injury and played 17 games in 82 games, averaging 17 minutes per game, with averaging 5.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.9 steals and 1.1 blocks, and 0.6 turnovers and 1.5 fouls, with a shooting percentage of 66.1% and a free throw percentage of 68.4%. During the playoffs, Robinson made a total of 18 appearances, averaging 20.6 minutes per game, with averaging 4.7 points, 7.1 rebounds, 0.4 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.8 blocks. He also had 0.7 turnovers and 2.1 fouls. His shooting percentage was 60.8% and his free throw percentage was 39.3%.

Robinson has very limited playing time in the regular season, and he has always been able to play the role of a substitute center, which has also led to his relatively bleak data. However, he can also play a relatively important role on the defensive end. His defensive ability is quite good, his defensive coverage is very active, and his performance in protecting the basket and rebounding is also worthy of recognition. In the playoffs, Robinson gradually gained more trust. He still did not make any outstanding contributions on the offensive end, but his performance on the defensive end was still very eye-catching. In the Eastern Conference Finals, he also began to get the chance to get the starter, and his performance also left a deep impression on everyone. In any case, Robinson showed his due level and he really tried his best.
