Looking at that schedule I'd have to say the NBA is really pimpingLeBron James. The Cavs haven't done enough to warrant that kind ofexposure yet. One second round playoff appearance in a gazillionyears shouldn't get 24 national TV appearances. Same can be said ofthe Lakers and Kobe. The other teams on that list have at leastcontended for the last 3 or 4 years and deserve that amount ofexposure.

I don't know if it's the NBA pimping Lebron. The networks fill out
their wish list, along with a reminder of how much money they are
paying to televise games. It's probably the NBA that mentions that
1. All teams have to play on TNT at least once (or it was that way in
the previous contract, I believe)
2. We can't have Kobe and Lebron play every Thursday, even during the
off season
3. lakers have to play every Thursday, even during the off season

Personally, I don't give a rat's ass about which station my team plays
on, since it really doesn't affect the W-L columns at the end of the
year. I can tune to local (regional) sports TV just as easy as
national. Cable is cool that way. I'm more concerned with which
games are broadcast in HD.
From that standpoint, you'd want more national broadcasts. But ABC
doesn't always put it's broadcasts in HD, and FOXSW only has a limited
number. TNT is best about that, so that's the station I prefer.
As a recent SA transplant into the Houston market, I"ll need to learn
about League Pass, HD, etc.

How much is League Pass? As a Spurs fan stuck in Katy, I'll need to get my basketball fix somehow. The rockettes only play SA 4 times, and all rockette games have a 'preseason' feel about them.

160-170? somewhere around there. depends on if you get the special or not.

I'm glad the NBA finally realized how boring and bad for ratings the mermaids (sp*rs) are! After being removed from the NBA Title last year, the boring mermaids are not even in the top 6 teams to get attention by the networks.. Bullshit with the Small-Market excuse, Cleveland, Phoenix and Miami are small markets and they will get more exposure Yes the mermaids will get some TV, but not as much as other teams... Thank God! MOST NATIONAL TV APPEARANCES (NOT INCLUDING NBATV) ESPN: 10 -- Cleveland Cavaliers 10 -- Dallas Mavericks 10 -- Detroit Pistons 10 -- L.A. Lakers 10 -- Miami Heat 10 -- Phoenix Suns TNT: 9 -- Chicago Bulls 9 -- Cleveland Cavaliers 9 -- Dallas Mavericks 9 -- L.A.

It's ironic. Because Louis doesn't realize it's ironic. That's how
ironic it is.
