Alex Barutha and Ken Crites compare ESPN's NBA Player Rankings to RotoWire's latest 2021-22 Season offerings. There is a serious discrepancy with Fred VanVleet.

EDITOR'S NOTE: In the pod, we reference Andre Snellings' ESPN rankings, but we were actually using Eric Karabell's rankings. Eric unfortunately never worked at RotoWire.

Here is the sweet, 1977 Julius Irving Sports Illustrated poster that Ken referenced in the pod and had in his childhood bedroom.
