Just get a hypnotherapist to go in and subtly sooth his subconscious mind in a way it just flows better because right now there's some lack of synchronicity between his conscious and subconscious mind.

The proof is when he has no choice but to shoot it, both parts of his mind are in harmony with the decision to fire away and his shot just flows like he's prime Curry.

It's not his shot mechanics, it's his mind mechanics, it's not 'broken', it's just not optimal for the type of physical skill of shooting a jump shot, he needs that flow state.

Hart doesn't strike me as a meditation sort of dude and he don't need any more chill, he's fine with that. Meditation can help with bringing cohesion to subconscious and conscious mind but again he just needs a little subconscious nudge to not doubt the moment. Stay in flow which is his natural state except when it comes to shooting a jumper for some reason.

Lol. He loves pressure. He's wired like that. In the playoffs he made a number of super high pressure shots too.

Can't wait to see what they look like when a few guys get back and the chemistry really gels.


Agreed, some people have stress under pressure some people flow with it, he flows with it. Which is why the jumpers he has no time to think he does well and the ones he has time to think about it are the ones he does worse at. He's super flow with so much of his game.

What doesn't help is when he's not playing he probably self sabotages his mindset by sowing doubt about it and you can tell he does by the way he jokes about it. Sure it's funny, but it also creates subconscious patterns that conflict with his flow state.

That's on Payne. We don't need Deuce 1.5. Or Brunson 1.0. We need someone to run the offense. I'm trying to like him, but the more he jacks up shots, the more it looks like he's trying to play for his next contract. And while I get it, that ain't going to cut it when he's 37/30/0. That's abysmal.

That Josh Hart stat isn't real, but it sure does seem accurate.

It depends on who was taken with that pick or available to have been taken with it...can't remember which one it was that went out. Too lazy to research it.

If we dont come out playing hard or if we are tinkering too much with our offensive/defensive sets it could easliy be a very tight game. You can't assume anything with our chemistry and identity still coming together.

Toss OG on Cade to slow him down, then attack them relentlessly with P&R actions as we should be able to slice them up on the inside and from 3pt land.

Yeah I'm not a fan of Payne running the 2nd unit. It's just poor basketball and frankly if anyone needs to be taking more shots it's Deuce.

I would give Kolek a fair shot.

What a stud Cade is. man i love players who can drop 25/5+/5+ with good efficiency. And he's getting stocks too? I wish i had drafted him in fantasy but i couldn't pass up on Chet

Payne did well last game... didn't shoot much and dished out 6 assists and gave some energy on the defensive end. I think he may be OK for us against most teams until Kolek is ready.

On a side note, if MIL implodes, how about Mitch for Bobby Portis Jr to bolster our bench?

Most teams dont have a bench of all stars on the 2nd unit. Payne is a legit ball handler. As long as he doesn't chuck way too much he should be fine in that role. He is a much better defender than Kolek right now. And yes he should be deferring to Duece more when they are on the floor together.

OG or Mikhal on switches. Hart occasionally too. McBride even. All very good to elite defenders. We just don't want Towns or KAT on him.
