It's because the Celtics had Horford on Hart and Jrue on Kat, so when you call for the pick from Kat you end up with Jrue on Brunson. They need Hart to hit threes at a rate he did in the playoffs or else teams can get funky with how they guard him, the Celtics in particular are built to contain big picks for guards.
Against other teams we'll be able to spam it, against them though there needs to be more shooting / scoring from Hart.

Then shouldn't kat go straight to the rim and call for the ball. Punish em for putting a guard on our C. Why rely on Hart to hit 3s in that scenario.

That's what they want, because Jrue will provide enough resistance for Horford (KP) to cheat off Hart and make you take a tougher shot than expected. That's what they were doing to Embiid last season, they'd actually guard him with Jrue at times.
They did the same to Randle too, KP was helping off Mitch a lot.

Time will tell. Chemistry is important obviously and takes time.
iHart was far more relevant to our identity anyway

Got damn jrue is a beast.
That's brilliant defense. It forces our worst offensive player to take the shot. So what's the answer to this. You don't want the defense to dictate who shoots? Go away from kat. Get into the offense quicker. Bench jHart for deuce.
