Loving the all around play of Josh Hart so far.
Speed, hustle, intangibles. GREAT glue guy!

4th Quarter. Time for RJ to hit a three pointer and be redeemed.

How did Ben Simmons get this bad ?

Got caught point shaving while in philly

I recall Ben Simmons destroying us with his defense years ago.
VDesai @ 2/13/2023 9:57 PM
How can you not like Josh Hart!?
KnickDanger @ 2/13/2023 9:58 PM
Everybody happy?
Philc1 @ 2/13/2023 9:58 PM
5th seed in our sights now
Alpha1971 @ 2/13/2023 9:59 PM
Bridges should keep playing bad so the Nets let him go in free agency

So, we finally take RJ & Sims out for most of the 4th and they go up over 20. I wonder where that thought might have been stated here and by what poster?

The coach should have pulled RJ sooner, he is killing us with his weak D, careless fouls and can't finish drives in the starting unit. Grimes looks off. Otherwise, the team looked damn solid, need to tighten up the 3pt D, they shoot too high of a %.

Give some of RJ's minutes to IQ & Hart. Can't get rid of Sims until Mitch is back, but can't wait for that.

I hope RJ is watching Hart's performance from the locker room.

We’re planning your parade right now.

RJ just has glue for hands. He gets the ball and won't pass it for too long
Alpha1971 @ 2/13/2023 10:06 PM
I can see Bridges leaving. Brooklyn has wings and so many picks. They might just not prioritize him. Knicks with Brunson and Hart should be recruiting. Then trade RJ.
Alpha1971 @ 2/13/2023 10:09 PM
Hartenstein playing so much better. Maybe he just needed time. Hope he keeps it up when Mitch returns. Obi played better last year after the break. Perhaps he will return after the time off refreshed, rejuvenated, and reborn

R.J. Barrett struggled (bad game) and now that I've gotten that out of the way?

Didn't get the 20+ point win that I expected.

But we did destroy New Jersey by 18 Points while our two Villanova Knicks led the way.

Only 2.0 games back of New Jersey for the 5 seed with a chance to tie the H2H Season Tiebreaker against them come Match 1st.

Most satisfying victory of the season for me.

Hart gonna be a key at stopping Trae/Dejounte
HofstraBBall @ 2/13/2023 10:18 PM
Great win. JB amazing again.
Gotta say, JB, JHart, IQ, Randle and Hart looked pretty good together.
Grimes and RJ on notice?
Like I said on another thread, let the 5 that are playing well play most of the 4th.

I really enjoyed that win. What a huge difference maker Hart is and Brunson was fire. Great game.

In 2026?

He's signed through the next 3 seasons.
