Apparently, he was prone to boneheaded plays.

But also their team was comprised entirely of forwards. They had like 8 3s and 4s. It was a tough situation for any of them individually to thrive.


Said it many times... every time he played against us, he performed. Just needed minutes. Guys on here were hating on him and hadn't watched him play. Can't believe everything you read

I believe he was doing this for the heat for a stretch. I remember the hype about how Riley is so good.

I'd say its probably a combination of him being on some sort of minutes restriction and the 76ers going small so we were able to go small too and keep Precious out there at the 5 so iHart can continue to rehab and rest more. I would guess he could've played a bit more minutes, maybe not a full 30 or anything, but didn't need to.


and Hart had a pretty great game, so even though not a big he was getting boards and scoring which allowed us to go small

Fact is neither Precious nor OG was being played in their best way in Toronto. Not surprising they’re surprising us :lol:

We should probably just do that now and skip the part about Burks screwing up the playoffs.

Maybe give Toppin ihart’s 11 minutes. When he came back from the Achilles soreness last time, he was at least moving like his normal self. So it made sense to keep ramping up his minutes. He didn’t look good tonight and seems silly to experiment. I don’t think Toppin is an nba player but he can move around a little bit. Try to give him another week.

I think if precious continues to be at this level through the end of the season we feel more comfortable letting one of mitch or ihart go this summer. Mitch is injury prone and now iHart with this lingering achilles thing is also going be on thin ice, especially in the playoffs when things ramp up. iHart is a ticking time bomb and I'd rather not mess around with an iffy achilles.

I don't want embiid at all though. Keep him out of NY

You think the front office will sign precious in the offseason? Hes a restricted free agent this summer and we should have his bird rights. He’s been so awesome for us and only 24. Maybe it makes sense to pay him instead of Ihart. Maybe you can get him for 3/24? He could be a good asset for a trade too.

Just ride the Precious wave. He’s having a hell of a moment in the sun. I don’t think this is a flash in the pan. Thibs simplified his game, and he’s giving us exactly what we needed all around. If he ever gets his 3 ball going semi consistently, then he can be a serious problem. This is getting interesting. He’s got 2+ more months to show this is for real. Things change fast, but as of now pay that man his money.

Shout out to Bojan for his Knick breakout game. Didnt take long, since the dude is a Croation scoring machine.

Josh, Donte, and Deuce helped close things out. Pesky little f*ckers they are.

Jalen was a tad off, but all good as he had a crazy week Im sure.

Isaiah hopefully just ramping up slowly. Jericho held it down well enough.

Time for Bahstin. Piss in their pot of gold.

Is Hart's jumper back because he got his legs some rest?

Burks was good in the first half as a catch and shoot 3pt release valve…

Burks was beyond terrible in the 2nd half as he tried to play make repeatedly and played matador defense. Almost cost us the game.

Thibs finally found his Taj replacement with Precious.

Giving Thibs a 6'8" guy who can rebound and defend multiple positions is basically a cheat code for a top tier defense lmao.
