Could the NBL get 0.1% of this?? Lol sounds crazy but 0.1% is still 2.5mill.

If the NBL can't get a TV deal, I'd happily settle for them streaming all games to YouTube... It would actually be very innovative, although obviously wouldn't net them much money.

The problem wouldnt just be not getting much money but with them being on Youtube they would have to pay to produce them too... as opposed to on tv where they didn't get much money but the games were produced by the network/perform.

Channel 10 may even get a game from Foxtel if ACCC allows the 15% stake to go through. The most likely option is the 3.20pm Saturday Arvo

I've always wondered if the NBL has looked at partnering with YouTube. Their streaming capability is second to none.
