The only confirmed game I found is Knicks @ Nets opening night...but that wouldn't work as the Heat are probably going to get their rings opening night. This past season, there was 3 opening night games and 1 of those was on league pass.

My guess for opening night is

Celtics @ Heat for the salty looks of KG
Lakers @ OKC (because the Spurs don't matter until April anyway and I've accepted that!)

if it's a 3rd game

I'd pick Hornets @ Warriors or Wolves @ Blazers

Tony Allen tweeted the Grizz were playing the Clippers.

"weh weh everyone dogs on Knicksage, fuck lakersage doe."

Be consistent. And most of the shit levied against the knicks is because of shit ownership which is pretty much undeniable.

^^^ this guy is funny and usually informed. No one can deny Dolan is a douche.

And Knicks fans can't take a joke.

I don't get why they can't, I mean, that's what their franchise is.

^^^ good try... good effort.... ok I am lying but still at least you attempted to troll.

I figured "eh whatever don't care" and was about to get food, then I heard Kurt Rambis talk about the Nets

"This team could make some real noise in the playoffs. If everything goes right they could be as good as a 4 seed!"

lmao

No chance AK doesn't start at that salary.

Ariza and a top 3 protected 2013 pick for Williams please.

Spoiler

we've fallen so far...

 

[DY_nasty]

...

wat

There are NUMEROUS posts of you saying #1 pick of bust and flipping when the Cats didn't get it. Then you called conspiracy even though it'd have to involve other owners conspiring also.

You don't go through THIS w/o getting an Anthony Davis. You pretty much posted that word-for-word.

you can't find a post of me asking for the #1 pick

lol

 

[The Frankman]

And Knicks fans can't take a joke.

I don't get why they can't, I mean, that's what their franchise is.

I need you to be honest Noriega. I've been here a lot longer than you, I've seen things man.

Also didn't we mention most of the sched info yesterday?

 

[Mothman91]

One thing that was cool about last season was that there was a lot of games to watch everyday. Loved picking between a few games to watch each night.

 

[darkside31337]

Orlando doesn't have a Christmas game after having one 3 years in a row.

Shameball

 

[RBH]

Two Knicks vs. Hawks games on ESPN this year......

Other than seeing how the new look Lakers look Washington against the Cavs is easily the most interesting matchup that night. We already know how Heat/Celtics is gonna go, seen that matchup a million times.

Wall against Irving will be nice.
Beal against Waiters? Huge matchup.

Will be fun to see the new look Wiz front court up against TT/Bynum if it happens. If not then TT/Zeller against Nene/Okafor is interesting also.

Really looking forward to that one.

 

[SephCast]

Two Knicks vs. Hawks games on ESPN this year......

I bet the split of Bulls National Games before March and after is huge. No one wants to see Rose-less Bulls.

ABC games: Lakers 7, heat 6, OKC 6, Spurs ZERO

Lakers with 16 b2b this season. Probably one of the lowest.


Miam,OKC,i and LAC with 11 ESPN games, LAL with 10, Spurs 10. (doesn't include espn2)

Mike Trudell ‏@LakersReporter
The Grammy trip for LAL is 7 games this year: at PHO, MIN, DET, BKN, BOS, CHA and MIA (Jan. 30 - Feb. 10).

That's not so bad, really. 4 easy wins.

 

[pilonv1]

Warriors on National TV (NBA TV doesn't count)

8 out of 30 teams. Awesome variety.

MLK game is vs. Indy this year not Chicago wonder why.

Somebody in NBA league office must know something. Magic have just 2 nationally televised games.

hmmm

I don't see it as dogging on the knicks-agers in here as much as it is on the organization. We can handle it.

We amnestied talisay and lost syphon to free agency when he opted. Replaced him with Zeus who is strong favorite for ROTY.

Solid off-season.

 

[diehard]

No Jazz games on TNT, lame.

 

[Black Mamba]

SamAmicoFSO: Somebody in NBA league office must know something. Magic have just 2 nationally televised games.

LOL


When including NBA TV (and fan night), roughly half of LAL, OKC, and Miami's games will be nationally televised. LAC don't seem too far behind.

TNT schedule. MLK day is also underwhelming. Lakers vs Chicago without Rose? Spurs @ Philly!?!?!

Why are Lakers and Miami/Boston not playing these dates. And other teams of course. Those 2 make no sense.

Eye on Basketball ‏@EyeOnBasketball
Wow, Magic play a two-game set against the Nets on November 9th and 11th. That's either forcing the issue or mercy in getting it over with

hah.

Eye on Basketball ‏@EyeOnBasketball
Wow. Nuggets open with 7 of 10 on the road. Two of the three home games are against playoff teams: Utah and... Miami. OUCH.

Not to mention we have 1 more spot to get another Knick-GAF rook and have another guy signed to a non-guaranteed poster deal. Did it hurt to lose Syphon to Free Agency? I won't lie... no. He was here for like the lockout season and did rub some people the wrong way with his constant "beastin" talk. And trollisay was a cancer, he had to be excised.

At the end of the day, both decisions were good for business.

The #Blazers have a brutal opening to season. They face Lakers, OKC, Dallas, Clips, SA in first 6 games, and 12 of first 19 are on road.

Are marked down in the calendar, can't wait!

 

[Black Mamba]

I..!

now that's OUCH.

Can't imagine a tougher opening slate. Rookie PG too!


I want to see which teams the lakers play only 3 times, but no sortable way yet and team pages not updated.

Mike Trudell ‏@LakersReporter
All 82 will be on Time Warner Cable SportsNet & Time Warner Cable Deportes. 1st time in NBA history you can watch in English OR Spanish.

wait, so even TNT and ABC games will be on Time Warner's channel? YES! Well, not for TNT, but for ABC.

Gee I don't know, we talking Disney or Toonami show here?

 

[SUPREME1]

Maybe Dwight will wake up and realize that LA is the biggest stage there is and there's a lot to be gained by joining the Lakers.

Or he could be a pussy and stay in Orlando... and appear nationally for 2 whole games.

 

[friskykillface]

LOL Boston never gets a home Christmas game


Smh and also no all star game since the 60's or 70's I think 0_o


Dat racism against Boston.

 

[Zeus Molecules]

Thanks for the love. I don't know about ROTY I just wanna come in and make things happen.... Play some good D when I play defense its infectious, it spreads.

 

[Black Mamba]

Lakers play Spurs and Jazz 3 times, twice in LA. Grizz and Wolves 3 times, twice in memphis and Minn.

Not bad. At least all 4 are good teams.

LOL Boston never gets a home Christmas game


Smh and also no all star game since the 60's or 70's I think 0_o


Dat racism against Boston.

Nobody wants to be in -10 degree weather on Xmas. Not even Boston players.

 

[Mxrz]

Only two games? Well, then. We can tank in relative peace.

 

[RBH]

Spike is happy about coming down to NY Country again.

It'll be fun to see the Knicks get styled on by a random like Willie Green again.

 

[Fenderputty]

wait, so even TNT and ABC games will be on Time Warner's channel? YES! Well, not for TNT, but for ABC.

So do I have to wait for FIOS to get some sort of deal done with Time Warner before I get to watch my Lakers play?

 

[Black Mamba]

Maybe Dwight will wake up and realize that LA is the biggest stage there is and there's a lot to be gained by joining the Lakers.

But Dwight demanded a trade to LAL already (or nets in January). Not much he can do now.

Mike Trudell ‏@LakersReporter
Overall, the schedule is about as favorable as LAL could hope. Few B2B's, softer early and late, with the meat in the middle.

yay!

So do I have to wait for FIOS to get some sort of deal done with Time Warner before I get to watch my Lakers play?

I don't know the details about the channel, yet. I can't find them anywhere. My guess is you don't need FIOS, just regular cable. A lot of LA doesn't have Fios, anyway.
