[Rankin] ... Kevin Durant continuing to address #NBA viewership being down. "I take this serious. I'm locked in as to why people don't want to watch us play."

Speaking of the disengaged viewer, life gets in the way too. It takes a lot of energy to follow an entire league, especially if you like more than one sport. This comment is how I learned mark Cuban doesn't own the mavs anymore.

They've got to fix their viewer model.

Beyond that though, I'll be the old guy that says it's the three ball. I watched the first half of spurs-knicks. My remarks are reflected in particular during the first quarter.

Clanked 3 after clanged 3. Couldn't hit water if they fell out a boat. Refusing to go inside like a child in snow.

Was some of the most boring basketball I've watched.
