The Ringer NBA Show
NBA Festivus! Plus, Is De’Aaron Fox Planning an Exit from Sac-Town? | Group Chat

Yes, let's do it. What a perfect time to bring in our favorite holiday. Uh, so every year we air some grievances, as we mentioned as a nod to Festivus, a sort of real holiday.

Now it's gone from like a Seinfeld bit to something people bring up fairly regularly and are at the very least like going out there and doing the performance of it for social media or whatever.

I think you have the right idea, but I almost wonder if the shame works because there's fewer places to hide. If you're on a team with fewer roster spots, you then are more on stage. There's more of a reason to give your all or give something approximating that. And so for that reason, I get it.

I think the format is interesting enough, but I wonder if it ends up like the draft, the all-star draft that we just had where it's like a fun novelty for a year or two and then it completely dissipates. I think Boaz's whole point is just like the main thing that they need to solve here is the guys need to care. And so if they don't care in a different format, it's not going to solve anything.

And two, I also wonder if you revert back to East West, if the younger generation starts to be like, well, I'm going to care because like I used to care about the all-star game when I used to play.
