“I’m so honored to have so many people who have encouraged me, who have supported me and who view this as a really important step for our country and for our society,” Brown Jackson told the Washington Post following her confirmation hearings. “It’s not about me personally, in a sense. I’m embodying this progress that many people feel we’re making by having me appointed to this seat. And so it’s pretty daunting in a lot of ways.

“It means you feel the weight of wanting to succeed, not just for you in your own independent status, but because so many people are watching and view this as a door opening for others. I know in the past I’ve felt, ‘Gosh, I’ve really got to do well here so that other people will have this opportunity down the line.’ That I might be the first, but I don’t want to be the last, and it’s on my shoulders to make sure that I leave a good impression so that others can follow.”

as a tool in our government.”

In March 2021, former Mayor Bill de Blasio greenlit the formation of the RJC and appointed 11 commissioners, including Jones Austin. The commission’s main job has been to study and identify areas of structural racism in the city’s charter. After seven months of intense research, public forums, and over 3,000 interviews and accounts, the RJC published a report about the barriers Black and brown New Yorkers face. They then put together the three ballot proposals aimed at removing those barriers. The Amsterdam News reached out to Mayor Eric Adams’ office about his support for the racial commission, its findings, and the ballot questions. Adams’ office did not respond by post time.

Jones Austin said that people mainly spoke about inequity when it comes to hiring and promotion in city jobs, especially among Black women who according to the city council’s recent pay equity report are among the lowest paid among city employees. Other complaints included lack of capital for businesses, police brutality, discrimination in schools, and equity laws not being enforced.

On the ballot they are Yes or No questions:

Ballot Question #1: This proposal would add a preamble to the city charter stating that it would strive for “a just and equitable city for all” New Yorkers among other things.

Ballot Question #2: This proposal would create a permanent Office of Racial Equity and appoint a chief equity officer.

Ballot Question #3: This proposal would create a “true cost of living” measure to track the actual cost in New York City of meeting essential needs, including housing, food, childcare, transportation, and other necessary costs, and without considering public, private, or informal assistance, in order to inform programmatic and policy decisions.

Aaron Judge finally has the American League and New York Yankees single season home run record to himself. On Tuesday night, in the penultimate game of the regular season, Judge smashed his 62nd home run, breaking the previous record of 61 held by Yankees legend Roger Maris set in 1961. Maris had passed the iconic Yankee Babe Ruth’s 60 home runs hit in 1927.

Judge went deep to left field in the top of the first inning off of Texas Rangers starter Jesus Tinoco at Globe Life Field in Arlington. Following the historic moment, Judge said to MLB.com he has at last joined a group of revered Yankees.

“It’s an incredible honor to get a chance to be associated with one of the Yankee greats, one of the baseball greats,” Judge shared. ”To be enshrined with them forever, words can’t describe it. That’s one thing that’s so special about the Yankee organization, all the guys that came before us and paved the way, played the game the right way.”

The last part of Judge’s comments may not have been a conscious reference to Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, the only MLB players who have more homers than Judge in a single season, but it did express the sentiments of many baseball purists. McGwire has admitted to using performance enhancing substances that were on baseball’s banned list of drugs and there has been compelling evidence suggesting Bonds and Sosa also used steroids.

Now it’s on to the postseason for the Yankees, who were 99-62 before their final regular season game last night and are hunting their first World Series title since 2009. They will have a first round bye after winning the American League East and will open their playoff schedule next Tuesday at Yankee Stadium in the American League Division Series facing the winner of the Cleveland Guardians-Tampa Bay Rays series.

Having five days rest is a huge benefit for the Yankees, who gain much needed rest and recovery and can set up their pitching rotation led by No. 1 and No. 2 starters Gerrit Cole and Nestor Cortes Jr.

The Mets could have been in a similar situation but now are on a playoff path that distinctly contrasts the Yankees. They held a one-game lead over the Atlanta Braves entering the three-game series with their longtime National League East nemesis on the road last weekend and were unceremoniously swept, falling behind the Braves two games exiting Atlanta. The Braves continued to handle their business, clinching the division for the fifth straight season with a 2-1 win over the Miami Marlins in Florida on Tuesday night.

Going into their regular season ending games yesterday, the Braves were 101-60 and the Mets 100-61. Now the Mets have the arduous task of defeating the formidable San Diego Padres in the opening three-game series that will be played at Citi Field tomorrow beginning tomorrow. If they do, then waiting is the Los Angeles Dodgers, who before completing their schedule last night had 110 wins, the most in baseball this season.

The Mets’ Edwin Diaz has been arguably the best closer in Major League Baseball this season, compiling 32 saves and 118 strikeouts in 62 innings pitched going into last night’s final regular season game against the Washington Nationals (Wikipedia photo)

U.S. reigns supreme at FIBA World Cup

By LOIS ELFMAN

Special to the AmNews

It was a different cast of characters but the same sweet result. At the 2022 FIBA Women’s World Cup, which concluded last Saturday, the U.S. women’s team secured its fourth consecutive World Cup title, defeating China 83–61. The victory makes the U.S. an automatic qualifier to the 2024 Olympics. A’ja Wilson was named MVP. Additionally, she and Breanna Stewart were named to the 2022 Women’s World Cup All-Star Five.

“We came here on a mission,” said Wilson while sipping champagne and looking both exhilarated and exhausted following the gold medal game. “I wasn’t even here the whole time, but I’m glad that I was here [Wilson, Chelsea Gray and Kelsey Plum came to Australia after the Las Vegas Aces became WNBA Champions]. We played pretty good. Getting used to Cheryl [Reeve’s] system was big for us, and I think we handled it well.”

This was Reeve’s first big test as head coach of the Senior National Team. “I thought we were just really determined, particularly defensively,” said Reeve. “We had some really great moments, and obviously A’ja Wilson was spectacular.”

This was a young U.S. team, and Reeve noted that some opponents probably thought a team without five-time Olympic gold medalists Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi would be vulnerable. “What we showed is that our league, the WNBA and professional basketball players in the United States are really good and the depth of talent that we have was on display,” said Reeve. “What I’m most pleased with is the trust and buy-in. … I wanted to make sure we enjoyed this journey.”

This marks the first time that two active New York Liberty players were on an Olympic or World Cup roster, giving Sabrina Ionescu and Betnijah Laney their first taste of gold with the Senior National Team. The Liberty also had international representation at this World Cup. Han Xu was a member of China’s silver medal team and was named to the All-Star Five. Rebecca Allen and Sami Whitcomb were part of the Australian team that won bronze with Liberty head coach Sandy Brondello at the helm. The bronze medal game included a spectacular comeback/farewell performance by three-time WNBA MVP Lauren Jackson, who scored 30 points.

Coverage cannot end without mentioning someone who was missing from the U.S. team, Brittney Griner, who remains detained in Russia. In honor of Griner, no member of the U.S. team wore number 15, which is her number.

S P O R T S The Knicks open preseason with Brunson now the orchestrator

By JAIME C. HARRIS AmNews Sports Editor

Preseason is what it is. Preparation for the start of the regular season, a period for players whose minutes will be minimal during the regular season to get precious playing time, and those coming off injuries to readapt. To read too deeply into individual or collective preseason performances may raise unattainable expectations or underestimate a team’s and/or player’s capabilities.

The Knicks’ preseason opener on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden saw guard Derrick Rose appear in his first NBA game since last December. On his 34th birthday, Rose returned to the court after missing 26 games, including the final 56 of the 2021-22 season due to ankle issues. He underwent surgical procedures in December and February to address the injuries.

Fourth-year guard RJ Barrett, who signed a four-year, $120 million extension in late August after being persistently referenced in trade rumors regarding the Knicks potentially obtaining Donovan Mitchell, began his quest to level up and become an All-Star caliber player by leading the Knicks with 21 points.

There are strongly divided public views by media and fans debating on talk shows and social media on whether the 22-year-old, No. 3 overall pick by the Knicks in the 2019 draft will become one of the NBA’s better wing performers in the class of Jayson Tatum, Khris Middleton and Jimmy Butler, or ultimately max out as a solid, reliable contributor.

Followers of the Knicks also had their first look at 24-year-old Isaiah Hartenstein, who they signed as a free agent in July. The 7-0, 250 pound center has the athleticism and skill set that can add versatility to the Knicks’ front court rotation, including the ability to shoot effectively from the perimeter and make rim runs for easy transition baskets.

Last season Hartenstein, who was born in Eugene, Oregon but moved to Germany in 2008 where his father was playing professional basketball, averaged 8.3 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.1 blocks in 68 games with the Los Angeles Clippers. Yet more than anyone else, Jalen Brunson was the player most fans were eager to see.

He was the Knicks’ most prominent addition of the summer, signing a four-year, $104 million contract at the start of the free-agency cycle in July. The 26-year-old point guard had a stellar playoff run with the Dallas Mavericks last season and fills a critical void for the Knicks, who have unsuccessfully up to now tried to acquire a long-term productive hand at position for the past two decades.

In 20 minutes on Tuesday Brunson posted a stat line of 16 points on 7-9 shooting and 5 assists. “I think Jalen can provide whatever you need,” said Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau. “So if you need him to do more scoring, he can do that. If you need more playmaking, he can do that. If you need him to create pace and create movement, he can do that.

“If you need a big three, a big shot, he can do that. But I love the way he can control and manage the game. And to me, that’s the number one function of a point guard.”

The Knicks will host the Indiana Pacers at the Garden in their second preseason game tomorrow night.

The past is the past as the Nets prepare for a new season

By VINCENT DAVIS

Special to the AmNews

It’s only preseason. Four games that will be erased in the win-loss column when the regular season begins in less than two weeks. But for the Brooklyn Nets, every game has significant meaning.

Monday night’s preseason opener against the Philadelphia 76ers at home at Barclays Center featured a lineup of Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons, and Steve Nash as the head coach. A few months ago this was an unlikely scenario. Durant made a request of team owner Joe Tsai early this summer that he either fire Nash and general manager Sean Marks or trade him. When Tsai said he was not going to get rid of Nash and Marks, Durant, maybe the best player in the world, demanded to be traded.

Irving’s attempt at getting a longterm deal from the Nets fell short and there was a possibility he would be traded. Irving ultimately accepted the $36.5 million one-year player option for this season remaining on his original Nets deal signed in 2019.

Simmons, traded to the Nets from the Philadelphia 76ers last February for James Harden, hadn’t played in a meaningful NBA game since June of 2021 when the 76ers were upset in the playoffs by the Atlanta Hawks and Simmons became the scapegoat for his team’s disappointing finish to the season.

Now, with all of the major parts back, it may not look like it at any time during the Nets’ second preseason game tonight versus the Miami Heat in Brooklyn, but it was a tumultuous 2021-22 season for the Nets that carried over deep into this summer.

“We’re fine,” said Nash regarding his relationship with Durant after the Nets’ first official practice of the season last week. “We’re good. Ever since we talked, it’s been like nothing’s changed.”

Nash, entering in his third season as the Nets’ head coach, added they resolved the problems that could have broken up the team. “Families have issues. We had a moment and it’s behind us. That’s what happens.”

The Nets have had issues since last season, which led to Harden asking to be traded. They ended it with a 44-38 record, the No. 7 seed in the Eastern Conference and getting swept by the Boston Celtics 4-0 in the first round of the playoffs. Now they are moving forward with a clean slate.

“You don’t start the year thinking you’re going to go through the same amount of adversity as we have the last two years,” said Nash.

“Ben’s been doing really well. He’s put in the time this summer, and he’s continually getting better every week, so it looks to me like he’s pretty close to the player we envisioned and he’s going to make a big impact for us.”

Against Philadelphia on Monday night, Simmons, a 6-11 point-forward, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2016 draft, took the court after being sidelined for the entire 2021-2022 season due to a back injury and mental health concerns. He had 6 points, 5 assists and 4 rebounds playing multiple positions in 19 minutes of play.

The 26-year-old, three-time NBA AllStar was born and raised in Australia but has New York hoops roots as his father, Dave Simmons, is from the Bronx and played professionally in Australia. The younger Simmons described his longawaited Nets debut as “amazing.”

Simmons accepts that he will need some time before he’s 100%, but right now getting reacclimated is the priority.

“I’m grateful just to be able to step on an NBA floor again,” Simmons expressed after the Nets’ 127-108 loss to the 76ers. “I had a lot of fun out there.”
