Only you what? I didn't say only you thought that. I'm aware of those player rankings, I post em probably more than anyone else on here.

I basically said no logical argument can be made that BI is better than Trae. So, whoever from the Ringer that votes on that, we can add them to the list along with SFP that will 100% fail at attempting to make the argument that Brandon Ingram is better at basketball than Trae Young.

It can't be done, not logically.

FYI, not to ruin your argument but if you look at the timeline of the rankings, Trae was ranked 24th before his season ending injury, and BI was ranked 30th in that poll. Trae dropped to 31 and 35 in the two polls after he was already out for the season. So, when they were both playing this season, that poll had Trae ranked 6 spots ahead of BI, and it's not like Trae is some sort of health risk, this is the first season where he didn't play over 80% of his teams games.

ETA: I said season ending, he actually came back for the last 3 games of the season, but those games were after the final ranking that the Ringer put out.
