Bader is better than excellent defensively.

I’m glad I’m not a Mets fan. Being a Knicks fan is enough.

I’ve liked Bader since last postseason. He’s always been excellent defensively and has good power/speed but he’s been just league average offensively cause he doesn’t get on base enough. Even this season his OBP is only .284, gonna be interesting what happens this offseason since he’s a free agent.

Every time I try to give up on this Yankees season they pull me right back in.

When Denver won the NBA finals, weren’t they announced as the World Champs?

No wonder USA doesn’t care about international sports, when every American team who wins (nba/baseball/nfl etc) are the “World Champs”

@DJ
If you’re talking about the end of season/ playoffs rotation, I see Donte and Hart taking minutes from RJ, Obi, and Deuce. Donte can replace RJ’s driving with better playmaking and shooting.
Over the course of the season, Donte and Hart will also get the minutes of Fournier and Cam.
We have a bunch of wings that have different, overlapping skillsets, and we can throw them at you in whatever combination the situation calls for. Sure, they’re not the tallest, but they’re strong, have decent wingspan, and play hard nosed D. They’re also super switchable. I don’t see the current roster as a problem, but if it proves to be one, they have time to solve it.

dj do you think we should keep any of the guys on the current roster or should we trade all of them?

There’s one thing you’re missing in Z-Man’s minute alocation, and that is players don’t play all the 82 games of the season.

they don’t but there’s no way for you to predict this unless you really do want to tonya harding rj in the preseason…. for all you know donte will be the one who plays 42 games like in 2022… and fixes this time crunch but that does not bode good things for the actual signing….

grimes played 71 games… hart played 76.. rj played 73… that gives you some wiggle room but you’re still looking at around 20 mpg give or take a few minutes…

that’s what taj gibson averaged ….

TBH I could see a trade for Dame. He’s not a perfect fit because we already have Brunson, but I think we would figure it out and I think there’s a good chance he’ll be good for the whole four years. But I could also see waiting because it’s not a perfect fit and the price may be prohibitive. Seems like we’ll have to wait and see.
