Very glad to hear this. I was worried when we made the deal but was hopeful that our agent-turned-GM received assurances from Hart that he’d be here a while if we agreed to flip a 1st for him.
I love that man. He found his home!
Hm.
While there are other factors, you’d think he could do better on the open market.
Interesting. Nice for us if this is correct.
Just a few years ago we had durant saying the Knicks were not it. Loving this turnaround.
What’s a good contract for him? 4/$60? I don’t know what he is making now. How much is he declining
He found home ❤️
Lifetime contract after he’s done playing he can be in the FO or part of the charity team. He’s earned it.

I think a four year $65M contract is fair for Hart
Trade for hart, keep hart
What a home run acquisition
He might play his way in or out of a bigger contract in a playoff series. But pay him.
On and off court the fit is great. And at the very least he is a 15-20 million dollar place holder in a big trade.
Seems like a no brainer.
Good
Re-sign this guy and extend IQ, that’s all that’s really needed this offseason. Still some “wants”, but we’re in a great place rn.
Keep Hart
Get it done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
re-sign hart, extend IQ, run it again next year
**This** *is the way.*
Love JHart, knew he would prioritize winning/culture over a bag. Dudes gonna get paid anyways, why pinch for more when you got a good thing going? Alotta players learned that lesson the hard way.
I think the fournier contract would be a fair deal for him
Give him Fournier’s contract and send Evan to a nice team that can use a shooter.
Replacing the Fournier and Rose contracts with Hart and Quickley extensions is gonna be very nice!!!
wow this is great
I just fell to my knees in Wegmans
Love it!!
The guy was made to be a Knick! Absolutely love this!!
This guy is John starks spirit animal
YESSSSS!
THAT’S MY G!!!
He has to stay pay this man
Be still, my Hart
This man was meant to be a Knick
Josh Hart does not regret coming to the KNIIIICKS!
