I have yet to encounter a single team that believes Josh Hart will be gettable. The CAA-repped swingman’s eventual deal to re-sign with the Knicks and a front office helmed by CAA alumnus Leon Rose is more often referred to be rivals as inevitable. …

Josh Hart sees 2 factors behind NYK’s success on road:
1. Fewer distractions
2. “We play for the Knicks. Knicks fans, they show up wherever we play. Whether it’s Oklahoma City… in Miami, at the end of the year, we were having ‘Let’s Go Knicks’ chants”

Josh Hart was asked what it feels like to leave the first two games against the Heat with a 1-1 split:
“Uhhh… it’s 50-50.” – 11:03 PM

Knicks take Game 2 vs. Miami behind a combined 79 points from Julius Randle, RJ Barrett and Jalen Brunson. Randle, playing on a sprained ankle, added 8 assists. Brunson, playing on a sore ankle, scored 23 in 2nd half. Josh Hart & Isaiah Hartenstein had crucial off rebs in 4th. – 10:13 PM

Great effort from Randle, RJ and Brunson
Two HUGE three-pointers from Josh Hart (biggest shots of his career and the Knicks season)
Game ball goes to Hartenstien. His hustle/heart was crucial – 10:13 PM

Kyle Lowry isn’t mad that Josh Hart flopped, but rather the sloppy technique. Lowry has too much respect for the craft to put such a shoddy product on the court. AK – 10:03 PM

More on this storyline
He would need a team with cap room to show interest, like the Pistons, Rockets, Pacers, Thunder, Magic, Spurs and Jazz, to get more from New York. The Toronto Raptors and Charlotte Hornets could also end up below the salary cap, depending on their own free agents. Competing executives will point at the Knicks’ relationship with CAA Sports, which happens to represent Hart, as to why it’s a “no-brainer” that Hart is back—not to diminish what he’s brought to the club since the trade. -via Bleacher Report / May 5, 2023
