Say what? 5pm on a Saturday?

That makes no sense whatsoever.

It makes sense for TV double headers. ADL on at 5:30pm eastern time following by a 7:30pm game.

Sixers got the wrong side of it though.

Pretty weird scheduling for Adelaide, I'm definitely not happy with it. I guess being a weekend it shouldn't be too much hassle to get there. What I'm upset about is the removal of Wednesday games and introduction of Thursdays, many people including myself play social ball then and won't be able to make it.

Someone has to be the entree to the main. Adelaide you are the starting course.

For us in Perth, it's hard to watch the game live, being daylight savings. I personally think ever game should start at 7.30 in all city's and if games are at the same time, fox has a spare channel to show it.

Makes sense that Jerome Randle is the appetiser

And if you want to watch both, you can't.

They used to do it that way back in the NBL TV days, and it was a constant pain. Double-headers are the right call.

Cairns has 6:30pm home games on Thursdays, Fridays and Mondays. How many people are going to go to those games? 4:30pm on a Saturday.

WTF?

Melbourne's home games? All at 7:30pm, except those to be confirmed.

Sydney have one game at 5:50pm, the rest are at 7:30.

Yes, I understand that daylight savings comes into it, and Brisbane's home games are mostly at 6:30 (they don't have anywhere near as many early games as Cairns).

Now, tell me again there's no bias in the scheduling, anyone.

It has always been about the south eastern states and their summer daylight time to the detriment of any other timezone. It is what it is.

In Perth we end up watching games at 4:30pm on weekdays (if lucky to not be at work) with the sun blazing on a 40 degree day. But oh no it always has to be tipoff at 7:30pm AEST on the dot, 8:30pm wouldn't be too bad but noooo we can't have that.

I looked on the NBL website for when tickets went on sale and got to a page which had Lisch in Hawks uniform and a link to buy Townsville Crocs tickets. Keeping it 100 guys

Hello,

The ICS file says all games start at 7pm? If I import this calendar file all games will say 7pm which is what I don't want!!!!

How do I fix this?
