Yeah, I was referring more to Vegas when multiple games are played at the same time.
The Spurs games on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday are all live on NBA TV.

Love watching the summer league tbh
Agreed. Pretty excited this year to see KA a little more featured than last summer, finally get a look at LJC, and excited to see if Wayne Blackshear can step his game up.
Have Any of you guys ever traveled to watch the Spurs summer league games in person?
Naw man, I really would love to someday though. Hoping they move some summer league games a little closer one of these years. How Utah got summer league games this year is baffling.
DPG used to make an annual event out of it iirc.
Yes, Vegas is a blast because there are so many teams and players there and so much going on. It's also a relatively cheap time of year for vacations there. I recommend every basketball junkie do it at least once.
I think it would be cool to go to Vegas to see some of the summer league games there.
Yea, think if I ever went Vegas would definatly be the one. Maybe Orlando, make a vacation out of it to keep the woman happy as well. Maybe one of these years they would move it to somewhere like Austin, feel like that would be a good city for it.
I think lurker23 reported from the RMR one year too.
Not sure if Orlando is open to the public.
UNLV is tough to beat as the two gyms they use are right next to each other with concessions and merch in the hall in between them. Free parking or good bus/cab access and all the rest to do in Vegas.
Austin would kind of suck for several reasons.
I would go to Utah as part of an outdoorsy trip to the area.
Why do you think Austin would suck? Main reason I could think of is obviously the horrible traffic, but Austin is a really young hip city though with alot of things to do, I would think that would be a positive. Being in close proximity to three major cities in the form of Dallas, SA, and Houston would help attendance and make it easy for people to get there I would think.
I can't even think of a logical venue for it at this point with the Erwin Center going away. Maybe the UT women's volleyball gym? lol
I guess they could pull off a smaller SL there or the convention center, but it would still pale to Vegas in comparison.
I'm not that familiar with Austin to be honest, would the UT basketball court work? If not it what about where the Toros play? They just had a new stadium built, I know its outside the city, from what I've heard though its pretty nice.
Being torn down.Nice but 25 miles away from downtown.If not it what about where the Toros play? They just had a new stadium built, I know its outside the city, from what I've heard though its pretty nice.
See edit above. They could do a smaller league like Utah but there's little point in putting another one together at this point. Three is kind of pushing it and Vegas is firmly established as an event.
any legit way to watch this other than the $15 the NBA is asking for?
If you have NBA TV, they're broadcasting the first three games realtime.
Sounds a bit unrealistic I suppose. More so wishful thinking by me. I live in SA, so would be easy for me to make my way up there.
Austin is a fun city. I grew up in North Austin. my favorite city in Texas is San Antonio.
I actually really like Dallas, thinking about eventually moving there. San Antonio is a chill city though, Austin is ok. Don't really like the hipster vibes they have going though.
No but I think I'm definitely going to consider it for next year. Would be awesome to check out the games in person.
Erwin will be torn down in the next 6-15 years, so it's viable for use at the moment, and it won't be touched until something new is built to take its place.
I wouldn't be too sure about either of those statements tbh.
