INDIANAPOLIS — Josh Hart watched the tape and did not recognize himself. He despised what he saw. Hart produced likely his worst performance of the postseason in the Knicks’ Game 4 loss to the Pacers on Tuesday night at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. He committed five turnovers. He had just one assist.

Rumors had Hart being benched after Game 2. Hart was on the bench at the start of Game 3, but played 34 crucial minutes in the comeback win.

As the Knicks clung to a two-point lead with about one minute to play Sunday night, Josh Hart maneuvered through traffic under the basket to grab the rebound that denied the Indiana Pacers a chance to tie or take the lead.
