    Yeah, I mean how do you rank guys who haven’t played a minute of NBA basketball?
    FWIW, I think Simons will be way, way better than Henderson for POR, and he’s ranked lower.

    Also: I’m thinking now that Giddey is a mirage. Looks impressive on first glance, but when you look deeper he’s slow and he’s a bad shooter and is not really helping the scoreboard… He’s not a top100, IMO

    I'm not even going to read the list because ESPN is the ultimate frontrunner sports outlet and this team is FAR from a frontrunner.

    As is the yearly tradition, the most egregious ranking is Westbrook. Not a top 100 player and hasn’t been for years.

    Rankings are the worst thing to ever happen to sports. Manufactured content and outrage designed to drain fans of their $$$

    It's all about the clicks. If we don't click they can't sell that content.

    I know but all I am saying to get from the starting page only 1 click to get to the Ranking.....there are worse homepages like the fake stories that goes on and on or the celebrity couples......where you click through..

    Jalen will force a lot of sportswriters to ingest their typed words this year.

    Yea there are definitely more egregious versions including shows like First Take which manufacture topics/lists to manufacture outrage and heated discussion. It's basically soap opera for sports fans.

    Then they would say ....it was right to rank him that low just to give him a power rise the next year. It is all narrative.

    All they care about is the product, they would not care about the human or the player.
