    Maybe they pick games based on last year's rating and new anticipation. Nets and Hawks had bad tv ratings last year?

    He was trying to go there. His whole Dwightmare saga started because he was trying to force a trade to Brooklyn that never materialized.

    Maybe Atlanta, huge maybe, but Brooklyn has no ties to him and there have now been 4 different teams (including the Hornets) since Dwight left Orlando... this makes no sense.

    Just like someone else said watch the games on streams.

    I used to have ballstreams but that has been dead for a while. Now I use Reddit they have a lot of stream channels even for mobile and good res. And if you missed the game you can either go to YouTube and watch the recap or there are a couple sites with full game.

    There are a couple youtubers that have pretty good recaps. Not just 5 minutes of the best plays but every score made or good play.

    kind of in the same boat this season . . . I've never looked at the packages where you pick one team, does it save that much money? in the end I'll probably do the whole subscription again, I end up watching an awful lot of games on off-nights

    He wanted to play there badly when he first wanted to leave Orlando. They were his first choice but the magic did not want brook Lopez
    The joke is Dwight said he wanted everything he touched to be good and that's not the case

    Lakers hype train in full effect, plenty of national tv to see them be a non playoff team

    Lakers will always have some national interest, especially if they are playing another popular team. It's funny that the number of games they have probably has more to do with Lavar Ball than anything the organization has done.

    James Harden = -10
    CP3 = +37
    Rest of the guys = +1
    That's how we got 28 games. jk

    They do. The way the media treats the Rockets, we are probably their "villain". Every good story has to have a villain.
