Damn some tuff games at the start
The only working link I found so far is here.
Tough rodeo road trip, including a trip to see the cold Nephew.
Damn some tuff games at the start
Pretty much the same, just includes the pre-season
NBATV- 12
TNT- 4
ESPN- 9
ABC 0
Only three games vs Warriors? Two in SA?
Nice.
0-82 tbh imo
We went as far as Parker went. No Parker, no![]()
On January 3rd, fans at ATT better all over Kawhi, tbh.
Getting an early butt- ing on November 18th against the Dubs, tbh.
43 of the Lakers games will be nationally televised![]()
The Lebron effect. Originally I thought they were going to get 41 games so I was only off by 2. Not surprised by this at all. It's a lot of games for a first round team.
Random thoughts about the schedule:
-Two showdowns with Lebron in the first 10 days. Would love to help the Lakers get off to a bad start. Also a home-and-away with them on December 5th and 7th.
-As mentioned, January 3rd will be Kawhi's return to San Antonio. But he probably won't even have the balls to show up.
-Rodeo Trip this schedule: Kings, Warriors, Blazers, Jazz, Grizzlies, Raptors, Knicks, Nets. Holy , that is a gauntlet. Spurs pretty much on the road for probably the most difficult month of the season.
Why is nephew getting more nationally televised games?
A Canadian team getting more air time than a team in one of the biggest basketball cities![]()
It's all about market size that's what you guys never understand. SA the City is big but the metro area of SA is small compared to other metro's which results in a smaller TV market.
Raps Nationally televised games last year was 5. They have 27 this year.![]()
Explain the "metro area". You talking TV MARKET, I carry a TV in my pocket! I've never understood this antiquated system of calculating TV market share when people are cutting cable in record numbers, getting specific packages to only consume what a customer wants, and to have the 7th biggest population in the USA, San Antonio is still considered a small market. So please explain this because I genuinely want to understand.
I guess the broadcasters can't earn as much money if your viewing device is a smartphone. Their earning power is greater in markets where wealthy corporations heavily invest in marketing/commercials that air during sporting events. San Antonio has HEB, Whataburger and that's about it. Gunn Auto and other marketers/businesses aren't elite enough to generate sufficient revenue streams for them.
It's almost as if the Kawhi's move out of San Antonio was orchestrated by ESPN/Sutton brothers.
That is borderline criminal ...
The post-RRT schedule doesn't look bad at all. vs GS, @HOU, @BOS are the only really tough games, and 4 of the 5 next-toughest (vs OC, vs DEN, vs MIL, vs POR, @DEN) are at home.
At least I don't see any early afternoon Sunday games. Only 2 games on the entire schedule start before 6 central: vs UTA on Saturday Feb. 9 (4 pm) and @CLE on Sunday April 7 (2 pm).
The toughest stretch of games looks to be from Nov. 18 vs GS to Dec. 9 vs UTA, and the first 5 games could easily see the Spurs start 2-3 or worse.
This one big advertisement for an agency owned by a New York multi billionaire named Sutton, "come join my firm and I'll get you on national TV!" Milwaukee - hold on to Giannis as long as you can because they will be coming.

We will make 2nd round ... might even beat Spurs to get there.
Damn it feels good to have Lebron on our side.
Couldn't even joke about that the past 5 years ...![]()
I don't agree with it but that's how it's been set up. Also you are ignoring metro. The metro area is the city population plus all the suburbs around the city. SA's metro population is around 2.4 million which makes it the 24th biggest metro in the US. Here is a list of all the top metro populations in the country.

You are a first round team. It's Lebron and a bunch of trash. I remember Kobe-Shaq Lakers being called the Late Show. This current incarnation to me will be the clown show. They should provided a lot of comedy. Anyways you guys are pretty much are at the same stage at what the Kobe Lakers were from '04-'07. You have a marquee player but no legit stars around him.
Drake pulled some strings![]()
