Because in posting this yesterday on Blue Sky, and I'm sure this was the case on other social media platforms as well, like the fans are like, wait a minute, what the hell's going on?

These guys are the starters, but they're not the starters.

Because there's going to be a world team and two U.S.

teams.

And like, it's really fucking confusing.

And there are reasons for it.

Right.

My understanding is that when the NBA and the union were talking about how to redo this, there were some things that they had to work out that I think maybe will still get worked out in the future to simplify this format a little.

But if you're going to go USA versus the world, even if it's two USA teams of eight guys each and then one world team of eight guys.

then the ballot should be U.S.

players and non-U.S.

players, right?

Not East and West.

It is not an East and West game.
