he stays in NY it is Bailey hands down for me. Good in his own right, phenomenal alongside JT.
What do you see from these guys next year?
Points only, which one comes out on top next year? .. Of course JT will have a big impact on this assessment, but let's suppose he stays in NY.

I also like Bailey, if JT stays. Smiths track record is to impress first year and then fade away. Add in the obvious regression and cup hang over (yes i said it) and id be surprised to see him break 50 next year.
I think theres more variables to consider that can hurt Bailey's numbers compared to Smith but this is a tough one to debate .

I think both had outlier years but I'd put my trust more into Bailey than Smith. Everybody in Vegas had breakout years so going to be hard to trust many of them since adjustments are somewhat expected.
