New Year’s resolutions: bench mob edition

Dennis Schroder: After a well-documented fumble of the bag this summer, Dennis Schroder signed a one year $5.8 deal with Boston in hopes to recover a portion of the $84 million contract he rejected. It’s been a tale of two Schroders. In 18 games as a starter, he’s averaging 19.4 points on 47 percent shooting. In 10 games as a reserve, those numbers drop to 11.3 points and 31 percent shooting. He had a 38-point performance against the Bucks and scored 31 against the Blazers. He probably believes he’s the third best player on this team, and he might be right.
