Josh Hart Talking About The Knicks Making A Deep Playoff Run Has Us All Hot And Bothered - Because He's Right
Look at this man! Look at him! He doesn't want to be the reason for the 6-game win streak. He doesn't want to be the reason for the 5th best record in the East (8th best record in the NBA). He's right. But you can't teach this:
Hart is the perfect role player for the Knicks. I know people like to LOL same old Knicks, not this team. They have a little bit of everything. Jalen Brunson is already arguably the greatest free agent signing in franchise history. You have a lead guard who can take over a game, finish late, ball in hand type guy.
