Educate, I don’t disagree with you (and mostly my post was tongue in cheek), but first, a lot of the passed-up shots Hart didn’t take ended up as scores by Mikal or OG, so there’s that, and really, you want Hart to hurl three pointers at the backboard at every opportunity? The ol’ pass up a good shot for a better shot idea is alive and well in this discussion…

Maybe you just want Hart to take a seat at the far end of the bench on the other side of PJ. I’m not so convinced.

2-3 is fine, but Hart passed up many attempts and the opposing team doesn’t defend him. Knicks went on a run with Hart on the bench in the 1st half.

LOVING the hysteria here. It’s like October 29, 1929.

I’ll just note that Josh hart shot 2-3 from three.

If there is one thing helpful from this game it’s that it showed Mitch is a big help against the Cavs. He was the only starter with a positive plus minus. This matches my eye-test

If playing your starters Game 7 level minutes all year long was a good idea, other teams would do it. It’s a bad idea, and we’re seeing the fruits of that bad idea now.

Teams are playing off Hart now. Unless he plays like he did in last year’s playoffs where he wasn’t afraid to shoot and was generally aggressive, he needs to sit in crunch time.

Brunson also needs to be a better decision maker at clutch time. He’s been great at times but good teams are looking to take him out completely and he needs to adjust.

I love my Knicks but maybe a first round loss is what is needed to realize how soft and uninspiring this team is…and it starts at the top

I think Hart maybe played too many minutes

Those are taxing minutes Hart plays due to the maximum energy level he plays with majority of the year.

How many blowouts do the Knicks have and the starters are still in the game? Too many

lets just say the team picture at opening of next year is going to look a lot different than this year’s….otherwise…its the definition of insanity

In reply to BigBlueAL.

Thibs looked super annoyed and pissed during his post game press conference.

How could he not? That was a very, very bad ending. I thought a back and forth loss wouldn’t have been that bad, but they were barely competitive at the end there. And OG not even being able to get close on a breakaway steal!?!?
