Rick Carlisle on defending Josh Hart in transition: We gotta defend him like Giannis or Lillard

May 9, 2024 by Hoops Hype

Rick Carlisle: “We gotta do much better containing Hart in transition. When he gets a defensive rebound, he’s great at just taking it and knifing his way full court to the basket. He’s a guy we gotta treat like Giannis [Antetokounmpo] and [Damian] Lillard and guys like that that are full court, high speed attackers. He really had a high impact on the game yesterday.”

Knicks guard Josh Hart on playing two entire playoff games: “My Lord works in mysterious ways. Today, I felt like I didn’t have it at all. The whole game I was reciting Isaiah 40:29.

Kyle Neubeck @KyleNeubeck
Was wondering why Stan Van Gundy was so adamant that Josh Hart has been a bad inbounds passer throughout his career since it’s a random thing to focus on, before remembering he played for him in New Orleans. A coaching PTSD moment lol – 8:34 PM

Rick Carlisle on the #Knicks playing heavy minutes:
“They’ve really been consistent with it for a number of months now. .. But to think that they’re just going to all of a sudden get tired? I mean, that’s, that’s really not a logical way of thinking.” trib.al/7oSQOcI – 8:19 PM
