0:00.0	Welcome to the Fantasy NBA today podcast.
0:14.0	What's happening everybody?
0:17.0	What's happening everybody? Welcome to First Round, steals and busts. I am Dan Bespris.
0:30.0	At Dan Bespris on Twitter. This is a sports ethos presentation and also a simulcast of fantasy
0:36.5	NBA today on the traditional podcast channels. The name of this show may be a tiny bit of a misnomer because I don't think that there actually are any true busts available in the first round.
0:50.0	As it stands on Yahoo, the top 12 and E-S-P-N top 12 are a who's who of excellent picks and you can make very reasonable cases that every single one of them all 24 names are not 24
1:04.4	different people there's quite a bit of overlap will end up with pretty decent
1:08.6	fantasy seasons but for varying reasons.
1:13.0	So, in order to create a board that in this case is what you kind of call a steel or a bust,
1:20.0	but maybe more accurately we could refer to as my favorite and least favorite first round
1:26.2	picks, we need to set up some sort of criteria for breaking them down. As an example of said criteria,
1:35.0	someone like say,
1:37.0	Jason Tatum, who's ranked fourth on Yahoo and eighth on ESPN, might very well only have a per-game
1:50.0	nine category rank of something like 10, or 12 does that make him a bust if you
1:56.3	took him at four no it absolutely does not because he very well might play in 74 ball games again and that's how he
2:06.3	ended up as a top five totals player this most recent season. So that's why setting up this criteria is so hard.
2:16.0	And it's also why, a minute and a half ago, I said,
2:19.0	I don't think that there is actually a true bust in the list of first round picks because you can make an
2:27.3	argument that any of them works in certain scenarios.
2:30.9	So you guys are just going to have to kind of bear with me as I give you my favorites and least favorites from both the Yahoo and ESPN pre-rank, not ADP, the Yahoo and ESPN pre-rank boards here on today's episode.
