Hartenstein is a nice player to root for in spot minutes as the 'hustle guy' when you have a couple 1a stars and then really talented pieces after that filling out the main core. When guys like hartenstein are playing 20+ minutes, it's not so nice because that's a team that isn't going anywhere.
Then you have the ultimate 'try-hard' 6'2 guard who can't raise his game in the playoffs because he gives 100% effort in the regular season. Brunson would be a nice contributor as a microwave type scorer playing 20-23 minutes off the bench to come in and give second unit a spark. As the team's 'star' well......thats a team whose ceiling in the playoffs is lower than the ears of a kid with 47 chromosomes.
So one more time....this series aside(and who knows how it goes.....we sure as hell know how a potential series with boston against these try-hards would go)
But look at that hustle! Hartenstein and Hart never give up on a play!! Brunson is a fighter! All these villanova try-hards play so good together!
All that and a dollar fifty will buy a pack of bubbalicious. It sure as hell won't get an nba title though. So what is the point?

Me thinks the KNICKS have a better chance of going to the finals this year than the New Jersey Nets!

We were battling until Embiid injured the guy who can guard him on purpose.
