Sean Fennessey

You can't take Hart off the team because he's the heart and soul of it and he's Brunson's boy.

But also there are times when he's on the floor and you're like, this isn't really a rotation player and a functioning offense.

And so they're just a series of awkwardly fitting parts and have been that for two and a half years.

And yet this is the best Knicks team since like 1998.

So it's just a weird situation.

I mean, I love Jalen Brunson.

I think he's really special.

And I want him to be great.

I want him to be a forever Nick.

And I want him to reach the place that I think he deserves to be.

And I didn't really get the Cat trade and I didn't get the Bridges trade.

And...

it has kind of worked in so far as they just win 50 games every year now, which, you know, as recently as five years ago seemed impossible.

So I can't, it's not like I dislike them.

I really like them.

And yet, like I told you the other night, like I, I wasn't like, I have to see every single second of this game because I feel like every game is kind of the same.

Yeah.

Yeah, and so that's a different relationship to the team that I had even a few years ago before the Cat Bridges era when Tibbs was trying to grind, you know...

Derrick Rose and turn him into 2014 Derrick Rose.

So I don't know if I love them.
