Get greedy.
Courtney Lee, the Knicks’ starting shooting guard, has made the rounds of the NBA, but this season is the first one in which his coach has begged him to take more shots — contested shots, that is.
Lee is second in the NBA in 3-point field-goal percentage at 46.7 percent, and Knicks coach Jeff Hornacek wants the $50 million free-agent pickup to put that to use. Even if it means shooting when not open.
“He’s encouraging me to take a lot of shots — more so contested shots,’’ Lee said Sunday after the Knicks fell, 119-114, to the Celtics on Christmas.
