Every single day, right now in sports, I keep hearing the same thing.

The NBA has a tanking problem. Oh my God,

what are we going to do to stop it? Adam Silver now saying they're going to suggest ways.

They're going to look at implementing rules to stop the tanking. Everybody keeps screaming,

but the real answer is the NBA doesn't have a tanking problem. It has an image problem. And that's what's creating all of this chaos. It's Buck and Fitz on Fox Sports Radio. He's Buck Rising.

I would give anything to start with waffles with a little bit of whipped cream on it.

Like, you're over here being too good for waffles on a Friday morning?

I don't understand this.

And I go, my, please.

I, listen, all I need is the great, the great crew that we got at L.A.

making this happen this morning to give me juice with the imaging and all the different things,

tips and tricks that they've got to keep us awake and keep the audience engaged throughout the course of the next three hours.

I'm happy to be here, happy to talk about this tanking problem that you think the NBA doesn't have. And yet Adam Silver is informing 30 general managers yesterday that the NBA plans to make anti-tanking
