The New York Knicks scored just 73 points in their loss against the Philadelphia 76ers Sunday night. After the game, Knicks forward Josh Hart was pissed.

This was the fewest points the Knicks scored in a loss since 2018. The Knicks shot just 32.5% from the court - the worst field goal percentage in a loss in two seasons, making just 22.5% of triples and 75% of free throws.

"Missed shots, didn't get in a good rhythm. Turnovers were out of hand. It was a unique game," Hart told the media in the locker room after the game.

Asked to expand on the notion that it was a unique game, Hart didn't mince any words.

"We played like sh*t. That," he said. "Like I said, we obviously didn't shoot the ball well. Turnovers were bad, I think I had 6 or 7 myself. You know... You just have to try to flush it. Got them again on Tuesday, [we have to] try to come out and play better."

Hart had 6 turnovers, while the entire team committed 19. Only three players - Jalen Brunson (19), Dante DiVincenzo (15), and Bojan Bogdanovic (10) - scored in double digits.

After the loss, the Knicks are currently 4th in the Eastern Conference with 37 wins and 27 losses in their account.
