Career three-point rate is 41.4%! The Suns take the initiative to trade, the Lakers win, he is the upgraded version of Kneckett

Will the Lakers trade Kneckett this summer?

In my opinion, if you have a good choice, you will definitely trade. It's very illustrative - retreat.

1, January 116 points, 0.241 points/round;

2, February 46 points, 0.203 points/round;

3, March 172 points, 0.181 points/round;

4, April 52 points, 0.165 points/round.

scores are unstable, due to Redick's intentional or unintentional DNP, thus chopping up the opportunity. But the scoring efficiency depends to a greater extent on what Reddick did right - like full-time pitchers such as Beasley and Hilder, if the outside is not guaranteed for efficiency, then being present is basically a side effect.

In fact, in the last 15 games of the 24-25 season, when Knector was on the court, the Lakers lost 4.2 more points than the average 114.5 points 100 rounds.

Will the Lakers easily trade Kneckett?

I don't think it's possible.

First, with three years of rookie contract.

Secondly speaking, after Finney Smith switched to the Rockets, Kennett was the only full-time pitcher on the offensive end in the team - the trade was to ensure that one pitcher was obtained to ensure tactic execution.

At the same time, according to the NBA China official website, the Suns are still seeking a deal between Allen and O'Neal.

Putting aside O'Neal, what are the characteristics of Allen?

Explanation point 1: three points. Allen's three-point rate in 403 games so far in his NBA career is 41.4% - putting aside the 32% of rookie Jazz during his period, and no less than 39% in both the Grizzlies, Bucks and Suns.

Explanation point 2: Take action. He has made 3,140 attempts so far in his career, of which 2,064 have come from outside the three-point line. According to a 66% shooting percentage, three points are the main ending method.

Therefore, we can understand Allen's characteristics as efficient shooters. In fact, aside from the defensive intensity environment, Allen's tactical value outside the three-point line is not at all inferior to top shooters like Curry and Peak Klay.

Does the Lakers have a chance to get Allen?

Considering that it is the Sun's active trading, it is still very likely. It should be noted that Durant was traded to the Rockets and bought out Bills. Booker led the Suns alone in the new season and no longer had the ability to win the championship, so he was still willing to take over Kneckett (rookie contract), Vincent (expiration contract), etc. To put it bluntly, if you don’t win the championship in the short term, you may start to optimize your salary structure.

For Allen, I think it is an upgraded version of Kneckett.

Reason 1: Features. So far in his career, Allen's three-point shooting accounted for 66% and Kneckett's 61%.

Reason 2: Efficiency. So far in his career, Allen's three-pointer rate has 41.4% and Kneckett has 37.6%.

Therefore, the upgraded version reflects the higher efficiency with similar characteristics. It is more efficient and has greater tactical value to the Lakers. First of all, Doncic's shots in the last four games came from the inside. Obviously, Allen, who has higher three-point efficiency, can effectively restrain the defense and open up space.

Secondly, the Lakers' overall proportion of 36% of the shooting comes from outside the three-point line. In other words, Allen can better optimize the team's main ending tactics.

Finally, considering the tactical value brought by the Suns' active trading and efficiency, the Lakers quickly used chips such as Kneckett to win Allen.
