Knicks’ Josh Hart shrugs off fiery exchange with Tom Thibodeau
NY Post
SAN FRANCISCO — During one of the more disappointing performances of his Knicks career, Josh Hart got into a heated argument with Tom Thibodeau in the fourth quarter Saturday.
Hart, who scored zero points on seven shots, was spotted going back and forth with the coach during a timeout, with Thibodeau seated and angrily shouting at the standing player.
Both downplayed the exchange after the 97-94 defeat to the Warriors.
“You all know me. You know my feelings towards Thibs,” Hart said. “You’re not going to find a more loyal player. I love Thibs. I think that was just my frustration coming out with the flow of the game, my own individual performance.
“Yeah, I was just, you know, it was just something that just happened in the heat of the moment. I’m a competitor. Obviously, he’s a competitor. So sometimes those things happen. I don’t think it really — it doesn’t affect our relationship. It doesn’t show anything of what’s going on. It’s just two extremely competitive people in a fiery moment. I love Thibs. I love what he’s doing. And he’s putting us in the best position to be successful.”
Thibodeau agreed it was a “passionate moment.”

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
