There is no Television deal ATF are wrong

According to the NBL, there is no Television deal (not yet anyway).

ATF have assumed wrongly.

NBL.tv will be repackaged under a different name.

Jumping to conclusions is all ATF have done. (How often are they right?) Guy Neville at NBL office has already discredited that "report".

If you look at ATFs twitter they said something just after about it still being live streaming but just rebranded...

@rockabilly_kid it still could but would not be branded as NBL TV

Clearly someone just wanting to cut down ATF.

Didnt boti say Conklin was going to Melbourne? And Ogilvy was going to Melbourne? And Brewer? And someone else signing in Townsville and not this Jet guy?

And what's your point?

He was right about Blanchfield to Melbourne, Goulding to Melbourne, Prather to Perth, new Kings import, Childress returning, jules to kings etc

Thats my point. People say boti knows but then conveniently forget how many times he gets it wrong. So my point is no one gets it 100% in sports reporting. Especially not boti!

Yes it is what you said (nbl tv being rebranded) which is what ATF said. If you look at their account it was said hours ago before you started this hate thread.

It is not a hate thread.

I want a Television broadcast deal too.

Boti said he taked to Neville and ATF claims were not right.

I get annoyed at people getting our hopes up and jumping the gun.

I hate no one.

I just want the best for the game

If the NBL aren't ready to announce a deal, or haven't finalised the contract yet, of course they'll deny it. Doesn't mean there isn't a deal to be announced soon.

Someone stole my name again to say 'sixers for the spoon'. For the record, I don't think they will get the spoon, but they aren't upgrading like a certain three other teams are.

ATF have just gone and made major dicks of themselves this time. Even if an announcement is made soon, it will appear that they just intuited this information and pretended to have insider links that they will appear to not have.

If there indeed is a new, revamped NBL.TV coming, you can almost certainly kiss an extensive TV deal goodbye. You would be looking at 2-3 games a week on TV max; so basically, a repeat of last season (in that regard, anyway).

I am really looking forward to this rebranding. I am optimistic, and hopeful it will be better than 2012's attempt at rebranding. You know, with the new head office in Sydney and the outdated posters everywhere? The slogan "bring it", while they brought nothing?

Bring on August 6. This will be our first chance to see what Kestleman can do.

You seem to be relying on the reported comment of an NBL employee who would be highly unlikely to confirm the ATF story even if it was true. You know as little as therest of us.

Someone from NBL TV tweeted that a fox deal was imminent.

Like Paul said. Same with when you ask clubs about signings they always deny until its announced. I say just wait

Boti said Melbourne was keen on Conklin, Ibekwe, etc. I don't think he reported that it was a done deal. If you don't want to hear about clubs showing interest in particular players, only read the NBL site and ignore rumours.

As Paul said, of course the NBL would deny an unannounced deal until it was official. Means nothing.

Not sure why any hoops fan would hate ATF.

A bunch of passionate basketball fans donating their own time to create discussion and bring content to its readers.

I cant think of too may times where they have got it wrong.

Won't ATF look stupid with the possible premature scoop? Can't have it both ways. I don't read ATF because their articles are generally already out there.

All games live on FOXTEL. Game of the week on GEM.

Can't see it being "game of the week". More like "one game a week".

Unless they plan on showing it at different times on different nights which is unlikely.

It is a General Entertainment and Movies channel, the phrase from which the name GEM is derived. So i imagine not much time for sports.

I hadnt realised sports and entertainment were mutually exclusive.

The Oceania series will be on GEM, I don't see how it is so far fetched if the NBL were to end up there too.

I am gathering by the anonymous post that GEM is not a HD channel? Is this correct?

Does "game of the week" necessarily mean "best game of the week"? In that sort of context it seems to just mean "televised game of the week". I vaguely recall that being the setup when ABC last had the NBL: they had a 'game of the week', but always in the same timeslot.

Maybe its a "friday night football" type thing, where the NBL could really pump up one game - maybe a Friday night - and make it the feature game with extra production, pre and post game analysis, extra camera angles etc...

It wont necessarily mean the best game of the round, or best teams playing, but more of a feature game

No one knows. But if it is a done deal I expect it will be announced with the logo and website unveiling

If it is a "Friday night football" type of promotion, won't it just lead to more whinging about the Cats being favoured by the television deal etc?

I remember when we were getting the 2 games a week on Fox for 1-2 seasons the NBL cut a deal with 9 and showed an edited game on there each week hosted by Stephanie Brantz, sat mornings I think it was and it was just a replay of the Fox game the night before.
