2018 OG: 49 NB: 44 Historical: OG: 4,200 points, 40 victories and 16 rings NB: 3,351 points, 19 victories and 12 rings

The Knicks and the Nets were nice and cozy at the bottom of the Atlantic Division standings: 29-53 and 28-54. The Nets were better than 7 teams and the Knicks were better than the Nets. They had each other over to watch the playoffs on TV.

The Islanders and Rangers just as cozy at the bottom of their Metropolitan Division: 35-37-10 (80) and 34-39-9 (77). The Rangers were better than 7 teams and the Islanders better than 9. The Devils improved to 44-29-9 (97) but that was only good for 5th, better than 16 teams. They did make the playoffs but went down in the first round to Tampa Bay in five games. NB: 33 OG: 15.

They Yankees, powered by some new stars, including massive Aaron Judge, came roaring back to prominence, going 100-62, better than 27 teams. But they finished 8 games behind on the great teams ever, the 2018 Red Sox, who went 108-54 plus 11-3 in the playoffs. It was baseball’s best team since the 1998 Yankees. The Yanks won the Wild Card game but lost the quarterfinal series to the Sox in four games for 30 points. The Mets were the Mets, 77-85, better than 10 teams. OG: 45 NB: 43.

The Jets and Giants were again terrible, going 4-12 and 5-11, both in last place. The Jets were better than 1 team, the Giants better than 4, (there were three 4-12 teams).  The Old Man wasn’t getting any younger, but he wasn’t getting any sadder, either, having won another year, his 40th, 49-44.
