“Every day, we’re focused on ourselves,” Hart said. “Obviously, we don’t know who we’re going to play. If we continue to just focus on ourselves and take care of the things that we can take care of, we’ll be in a good position. So that’s all today was — the next couple of days — until we figure out who we’re going to play.”
