Melbourne Pubs showing NBA

Does anyone know any Melbourne pubs (or anywhere) besides the crown showing the NBA Finals? Maybe where kids can attend?

Many Thanks!

You guys in Melbourne need a ranking system. While many will show it on one screen or two, being able to hear the sound is usually another story. Nothing worse than turning up to a hotel in expectation and having to listen to some obscure sport or news report on another screen that no one is watching.

AussiePride: not that hard to have a chat to the bartender.

Not many people are at pubs at the time of day that NBA games are on. I doubt there would be a riot-scale revolt if you switched the volume from the news to the ball game...

Better than stewing in silence.

My experience is went to pub a sports bar after ringing and confirming they would be playing a NCAA game. Went with family members, after a while there was a group of guys that came in mouthing of about what was that crap on TV. So would be a bit nicer if the pub embraces the games and of course a few people attended.

Might be showing Games 3 & 4 on the big screen at my church. We're in the CBD. I'll post details if/when confirmed. Kids welcome (even has a kids room).

turf bar was pretty good last year. By good, I mean packed.

But yeah - lots of screens, and full audio.
