I think it's tough for networks to predict trades and major injuries (aren't the TV schedules made well in advance?). I mean the Lakers with a healthy Kobe and Randle vs. the Heat with a healthy Bosh wouldn't be a terrible midseason game.

Anyways, Warriors playing yet again tonight. After four games in five nights they now go a solid three and a half weeks with a game every other day. Rough stuff.

 

[msdstc]

Gonna continue to hope the celts push for Marcus to attack. His defense is legit, but he needs to be more of an offensive weapon than he currently is. James Young playing time continues to increase too.

ESPN already dropped a bunch of Lakers and Knicks games (Sunday ABC games), there's no reason for them to stick with those same teams on weeknights.

Here's another awesome situation: Friday, Cleveland is in Atlanta. What's on ESPN? Phoenix at Brooklyn.



BURN IT TO THE GROUND

NBA already experimented with switching games this season and it got me more good games than I normally would, I'm sure next season they'll do it even more, especially when unexpected teams blow past expectations.

But can they do that as much as they want? Or is their a limit?

But yeah, I can't remember the last time so many big name teams were this bad.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

welp no Lowry for the Raps. Good game Cavs. Go easy on us.

Those local affiliates don't want ESPN coming in and taking all of their good matchups either though.

 

[msdstc]

God damn jazz fans, I wish we had Gobert.

Work out a blackout arrangement and show a different game on ESPN in that slot for the local market.

But really, I come from watching a lot of college football and college basketball. Every game I want to see is on TV, be it broadcast network or one of the cable channels. occasionally only via an ESPN3 stream. I don't see why every NBA and NFL game isn't just available. Surely the advertising would be worth more than a subscription fee over the course of a season.

 

[Kacar]

Good pace to start the cavs/raptors game.

JJ gettin busy

 

[Kacar]

He has been playing really well, good to see.

3 point specialist Love heating up.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Cavs looking very good in this.

I *really* like the Raptors center. They need to pay him whatever he asks for. He's a stud. Please don't break KLove's arm though, thx.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Wtf happened to Lin lately dude has been ballin and doing work against Heat

 

[Kacar]

Love isn't hitting the rim, Kyrie is bae and amazing, Lebron is meh whatever.

 

[eBay Huckster]

This team is gonna be disgusting in the playoffs

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Bucks facing GSW yikes I honestly think the Bucks might not make playoffs will choke spot away.

 

[Syphon Filter]

fraud Toronto getting exposed by several teams. fraud fans will leave soon.

 

[MVP]

Besides Griffin being out, why would the Clippers go from being 2.5 point favorites to 1 point dogs in tonight's game? Am I missing something? Ah well, fuck it, time to bank.

Who are the refs?

 

[MVP]

Who are the refs?

Scott Foster, David Guthrie and Gary Zielinski.

 

[alr1ght]

Lebron is going to go off

 

[Kacar]

LeBron really pissing me off.

 

[eBay Huckster]

Lebron is going to go off

too bad he's not gonna go off at the free throw line

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Sacre lol
TRoss!!!!

Damn it Raps can't give Lebron that lane

 

[Bowser]

Nets beat GSW, Hornets barely beat Lakers by 1 at home

Hornets up 30 on the road vs Nets

ok

 

[eBay Huckster]

James Jones just had the best reaction to getting a steal just now

 

[GamerSoul]

They still falling for that pump fake hah

 

[Sanjuro]

The appropriately played "Living on a Prayer" at the two minute mark, despite the lead.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

King James conquered the North.

 

[UnObtainium17]

I think Bron tweaked his FT stroke a little bit... Its not as James Posey-ish anymore.

 

[Sanjuro]

DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES!?

YES

 

[msdstc]

Damnit all celts, pointless win.

 

[Tom Penny]

Evan Turner. Player of the game with a 2/2/2 in 25 minutes...

 

[Kacar]

Tristan looked bored and sad this whole game.

He a raptor fan though..

 

[LyleLanley]

The championship parade is back on.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

So many good games.. Harden clutch.

Westbrook.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Damn it Harden might have just cost Houston. Lost MVP right then and there

 

[AnAnole]

Done with the NBA forever

Westbrook.

Yeah, Le Batard has retweeted a vine of that a couple of times. Insane.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Gasol is ridiculous

 

[Chezzymann]

Tough loss. Rockets are ridiculously bad in the fourth quarter. I wouldn't be surprised if we're one of the worst teams in the league in fourth quarter performance. Is it a coaching problem or what? Games against these teams crucial for home court advantage in the playoffs and we're screwing up at every opportunity.

Idk, I get tired of every game being Cleveland, OKC, Spurs, and The Warriors over and over again.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

These Pelicans man how are they doing this?

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

Christ almighty that alley oop was ridiculous.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

CAN'T STOP

WON'T STOP

 

[GamerSoul]

Jeebus that dunk came out of no where but it's still close..

Whiteside beastin.
