For about the past, I don't know, two, maybe three years, you asked your uncle, you asked your barber, you asked the cashier at the grocery store, what they think about the NBA, they'll probably have a lot of bad things to say, and we spent a lot of this time dissecting that. Why have casual fans turned against the NBA? Why does nobody care about the NBA regular season? Why is the product failing in the eyes of so many? It's been a nonstop talking point on the show. And the whole time I've been saying a lot of this stuff is overrated and, you know, people are going to be negative for social media, but there's so much good going on. I've turned the other way. There's a lot of serious problems to talk about. And this NBA All-Star weekend break where everybody sits down and talks about all the problems in the league has convinced me there is much that needs to be changed.

1:08.5

And I'm sure you guys are home due too.

1:10.1

So for this episode, what we did was, as usual, for these Monday episodes, I made a community post and asked you guys to give us your biggest issues with the league. And we're going to talk about them, talk about how they can be fixed if possible. Talk about who's at fault, how we got here. And just in general, look up and down the league and talk about all the issues that, if not something that are rooting the league, things that can make the quality of life as an NBA fan better. Then after that, we're going to talk about Kevin Durant's. Let's go. A lot of Kevin Durant news. Beasles, how are you feeling about Kevin Durant today? Oh, man, I don't want to say anything about KD right now because he's about to talk crap behind the scene
