NBA fans are losing it over ESPN’s 2020-21 player rankings

It’s that time of year again. The NBA season is almost upon us, so every publication that covers the NBA is releasing their preseason rankings of the league’s best teams and best players.

And every single year, like clockwork, fans lose their minds over the placement of their favorite teams and players from around the league. This year has been no different.

ESPN released a ranking of the top 100 players in the NBA for next season ranked from worst (100) to best (1) according to their panel of experts, and fans are absolutely livid on the internet.

This player is ranked too high. That player is ranked too low. How do you have this player ahead of THAT player? It’s all there. Some of it was justified. Some? Not so much. It was so bad that even some players got into the reaction.

We’ve got all of the reactions right here.
