According to the OneHD NBA schedule there should be a double header on today. However, instead, they are showing 6 hours of live golf. FML!

You've got to be joking?
First Technical Issues on Wednesday night prevented the NBA replay being shown and today they over-rule the double-header with golf.
That's plain disrespectful to our game and inconveinient for some.
I hope James Packer's involved isn't starting to cause this.
I'm not happy reading this topic.

Suck it up people, if you've got 4 hours to kill on a Friday perhaps you could go and get a job? They're showing the games later, I really don't think we, as basketball fans, are in any position to be complaining to OneHD about the coverage this year.

lol exactly billo, how many games did we see last season on free to air?, now we get NBA double headers and NBL games.
Yeah i got the day off an it sucks for em not to be live but from 5:30pm til 11:30pm i got a fair idea ill be watching 3 basketball games (hardest part is avoiding seeing the NBA scores lol)
Don't bite the hand that feeds you! We have a FTA sports channel that can't survive by simply showing basketball when the fans expect it. Want it live all the time then purchase a NBA League Pass.
Anyway the games are being shown later and I was pleased that from 5 pm til 11.30 pm there will be basketball on my television (with the exception for 30 minutes in which Sports Tonight will screen).
The games will be shown again tomorrow morning (when you get home) if you can't watch tonight....very reasonable for the simply cost of electricity and sitting through a few adverts. Otherwise get a mate to record it and spend some BFF time with them watching the game

+1 to the last few posts. Just a week or two ago we had for games back to back on a Friday (2 NBA and 2 NBL). Can't complain about a major Oz golf tournament being shown.

You still get unbelievably good coverage compared to NZ!
We still only get 2 NBA games a week--One on Thursday and the other on Saturday.

Yeah i got a full time job that's not 9-5, and that makes me less important than all the 9-5 workers out there.
If no one worked odd hours...no such thing as a after work drink...do you think bar staff and their managers are volunteering?
Back on Topic......Golf...please that's terrible
