In Hart’s opinion, football is easier to realistically simulate than basketball.</p><blockquote>“Honestly? I don’t really play <i>2K. </i>It’s so unrealistic!” Hart said. “I feel like it’s so hard for creators to simulate our movement on the court, and I feel like with <i>Madden</i>, it’s easier. But for basketball, it’s totally different.”</blockquote><p>Well, that isn’t the <i>only </i>reason he hasn’t been on <i>2K21.</i></p><blockquote>“My overall isn’t that crazy high, and I want to go out and score 40 with myself every time. I don’t really get the luxury to do that,” Hart joked.</blockquote><p>He’s <a href="https://www.2kratings.com/josh-hart">rated 76</a> in NBA 2k, which does seem a bit low. Nine games into his fourth NBA season, the 25-year old is averaging 8.4 points and 8.4 rebounds(!) in 28.1 minutes per game off the bench for the 4-5 Pelicans.</p><p>Hart’s go-to game at the moment is <i>Call of Duty: War Zone.</i></p><blockquote>“I probably play like an hour or two of <i>Call of Duty: War Zone</i> or something like that, then nap, get up, shower, get dressed, and go to the [basketball] game…That’s really my game-day routine.”</blockquote><p>In the bubble, Hart posted an NSFW video showing him getting roasted by fellow <i>Call of Duty </i>players.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">“How’s the Twitch streams going?” <a href="https://t.co/bQGtvU1M0c" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/bQGtvU1M0c</a></p><p>— Josh Hart (@joshhart) <a href="https://twitter.com/joshhart/status/1284916114095562755?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">July 19, 2020</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>After <a href="https://twitter.com/joshhart/status/1282455157805121536">taking up golf</a> over the summer,  Josh Hart shared an <a href="https://twitter.com/FOXSportsNOLA/status/1282463374664765440">image</a> of him photoshopped onto the cover of Take-Two’s golf franchise, <i>PGA TOUR 2k21</i>.</p><p>As for his fiancé’s stance on his gaming tendencies?</p><blockquote>“She’s not the biggest fan,” Hart said. “But I think she’s learning how to live with it because she realizes it’s not going anywhere.”</blockquote><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Well, this is exactly what happened on Thursday in the Mavs’ 129-127 overtime defeat at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/lakers-news-anthony-davis-unknowingly-reminded-us-josh-hart-goat-being-left-hanging/" rel="noopener noreferrer">The king of being left hanging</a>, New Orleans Pelicans swingman Josh Hart, caught wind of Doncic’s rather embarrassing moment, and the former could not help but comment on something he considers to be his area of expertise.</p><p>Hart t<a href="https://twitter.com/joshhart/status/1339790919617441792?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1339790919617441792%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fclutchpoints.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D936413action%3Dedit" rel="noopener noreferrer">ook to Twitter</a> to hilariously grade Doncic’s impressive attempt to save face after being left hanging:</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Great form<br>Great reaction time<br>10/10 👍🏽 <a href="https://t.co/KoqqT3ErlH" target="_blank">https://t.co/KoqqT3ErlH</a></p><p>— Josh Hart (@joshhart) <a href="https://twitter.com/joshhart/status/1339790919617441792?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">December 18, 2020</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p>Hart himself has been left hanging on more than a few occasions, so it’s safe to say that he knows what he’s talking about here. He did give Doncic a perfect 10/10 score, so the Mavs stud is clearly following in the footsteps of the GOAT (of being left hanging).</p><p>Doncic had an okay showing on the court Thursday, finishing with a team-high 20 points but on 6-of-18 shooting and 0-of-6 from downtown. The 21-year-old also logged five boards and seven assists.</p><p>The Mavs closed out their preseason with a loss following back-to-back wins against the Milwaukee Bucks in their first two games. They get a few days of rest before their season officially tips off against a new-look Phoenix Suns side. This should be a tremendous matchup between two of the top point guards in the league today in Doncic and Chris Paul. Both teams will be gunning for a playoff spot in the stacked Western Conference this season.</p><p>As for Hart and the Pelicans, they too will be angling for a postseason spot in the West, even after trading Jrue Holiday. Zion Williamson is looking healthy, while All-Star Brandon Ingram will look to get even better after signing a max contract in the offseason.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The rumor mill has churned out a ton of interesting scenarios as of late but one of the more explosive bit of news coming out is the possibility of 2018 MVP James Harden ending things with the Houston Rockets to form a big three with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving with the Brookelyn Nets.</p><p>If that <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nets-news-james-harden-intrigued-with-kevin-durant-reunion-teaming-up-with-kyrie-irving/">insane scenario</a> somehow falls into place, then it is indeed over for the rest of the league per New Orleans Pelicans Josh Hart. The 25-year old shooter took to <a href="https://twitter.com/joshhart/status/1328123801125662722">Twitter </a>to suggest that we we should all simply hand the Larry O’Brien trophy to the Nets if Harden moves to New York.</p><blockquote><b>“I was already over 2020 but if James goes to Brooklyn then I’ll see ya’ll 2022 cause they got 2021.” Hart posted (via <a href="https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1328179064159436801">Bleacher Report</a>). </b></blockquote><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Josh Hart thinks its a wrap if the Nets land Harden 🍿 <a href="https://t.co/L4c0ophkMn" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/L4c0ophkMn</a></p><p>— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) <a href="https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1328179064159436801?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank">November 16, 2020</a></p></blockquote><p></p></figure><p> </p><p>Let’s face it, Harden joining forces with Brooklyn’s dynamic duo would be peak 2020 and Hart suggesting that we should all just wrap it up for the upcoming season makes a whole lot of sense, as silly as it sounds.</p><p>The Rockets leader is coming off his third consecutive league scoring title after finishing his eight season in Houston with an average of 34.1 points per contest. In the past three seasons, no one has come close to the 31-year old in terms of buckets and pairing him with a four-time scoring champ in Durant is just absolutely unthinkable. Add in another potent scorer like Irving into the conversation then that’s easily an average of 80 points per game between these three.</p><p>This move will undoubtedly be the biggest moves in recent NBA history.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
