“It was never going to be a tough day for me because I had a hand in that decision,” said Josh Hart [on coming off the bench], who still played 34 minutes in the game. “When I’m in a decision like that and kind of got the ball rolling on that, it was funny, y’all are scrambling, trying to get answers and I never really cared. Because it was kind of my decision. I was comfortable with it.”

In the press conference post-game, reporters asked Thibodeau is he afraid of potential injuries that occurred to Karl-Anthony Towns and Josh Hart. Thibodeau simply claims that he believes in the ‘best medical team in the league’: “I don’t know if you are aware, but our medical team was voted the best in the NBA,” Thibodeau started. “They [Towns and Hart] are tough-minded, mental toughness is what’s important in this time of the year even more than physical toughness.” -via BasketNews / May 26, 2025
Kristian Winfield: Thibs on starting lineup change: “It really didn’t impact either guy from a minutes standpoint. When Mitch is coming off the bench, he’s a starter coming off the bench. When Josh is coming off the bench, he’s a starter coming off the bench. So minutes remain the same” #Knicks -via x.com / May 25, 2025
