Knicks' Josh Hart Levies Accusation at Tim Hardaway Jr. After Pistons Series

   

The New York Knicks and Detroit Pistons closed out their first round series this past week with a Game 6 at Little Caesars Arena that resulted in a thrilling 116-113 Knicks win over their Eastern Conference rivals to the west.

The Knicks punched their ticket to the second round to take on the Boston Celtics in a series starting tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. ET. 

On Sunday, video surfaced of Knicks guard Josh Hart speaking with fellow New York guard Jalen Brunson about the Pistons' alleged "foul baiting," choosing to levy an accusation against Pistons guard Tim Hardaway Jr. that raised eyebrows on X. 

Hart spoke on Hardaway Jr.'s controversial last second shot at Little Caesars Arena that fans thought should have resulted in a foul call against the Knicks. 

"Honestly I think if he just shot the ball...Who knows what could have happened," Hart said during the podcast episode. 

Hart was asked by Brunson if Hart was saying Hardaway Jr. was being unethical. 

 

"No, he was being very unethical, and the whole series Detroit was on JB (Bickerstaff) about like, foul-baiting," Hart added. 

"Tim's gonna text me and have some choice words for you. I can't wait for it," Brunson added.
