When we think of Isaiah Thomas, we think of big contracts to role players.

Jared Jefferies, Michael Sweetney, Shannon Anderson, the list goes on.

Josh Hart reminds me of one of those signings, the guy is a walking brick. He’s so bad at shooting he’s afraid to shoot.

We play 4 on 5 with him on the floor the same way we did when we had Jared Jefferies.

Leon Rose needs to have his feet held to the fire for this signing man. We have no shooting.

    Problem with Hart is he needs more ballhandling duties to get in a rhythm. Had the same problem in Portland where they made him a spot-up shooter and he wasn’t that effective. When he came to NYC he was averaging over 30 MPG and handling the ball a lot with the second unit.

    Now that RJ is playing better and he isn’t getting as much burn, he is less in rhythm shooting wise even though his intangibles is still there.

    This just might be who Josh is on this team now and we probably won’t see the full Josh Hart until we make a trade to consolidate the roster and he gets more responsibility.
