NBA Games Shown On TV This Year

Not wanting to go "gift horse" on all of you - I'm starting to get a bit sick of the same ol' teams each week on Fox and 10.

Don't get me wrong - am very thankful that NBA is back on TV - just a bit of variety would be nice.

I also know that the stations hands are tied cos 1. the games are picked at the start of the season so teams like Detroit who were thought to be better get scheduled a lot even though they now stink and 2. you can only show what is on on those game days.

Just saying it would be nice to see some other teams. Of the 71 games shown this year - we don't get to see - Memphis, T-Wolves, NJ, Toronto, Indiana, Charlotte or Sacramento

Here is the breakdown of teams we get to see - and if it seems that we see either one of Lakers, Boston, Phx, Dallas or SA almost every game - you are probably right

Lakers : 20
Phoenix : 12
Boston : 11
Dallas : 11
Cleveland : 10
SA : 9
NO : 8
Miami : 7
Orlando : 7
Chicago : 6
Detroit : 6
GS : 5
Houston : 5
Utah : 5
Denver : 4
Portland : 4
Milwaukee : 3
Philadelphia : 3
NY : 2
Atlanta : 1
Clippers : 1
OKC : 1
Washington : 1

Avv - I was talking about NBA League Pass wasn't I?

I was making a point about those of us who watch the games on TV ... I would like more variety on the games shown on TV. Hence the word "TV" in the title.

Well crowfan we are in luck tommorrow.. first game is Portland at Cleveland.. oh yeah Rip city baby!! Oden back in the lineup, we need to get a big scalp on the road, been the problem all year..

Alot of the games seem to be based around timezones also, where we get games from the West Coast on a slight delay.. I actually think there has been a pretty good mix, with an obvious emphasis on the more popular teams/players but still a few other lesser known teams.. but on free to air i'll take it!!

It's not fox's fault or Channel 10's fault. We just get the direct streams from ESPN in the states and they chose to show the big dawgs. Nothing we can do about it...as annoying as it is
