Spurs Will Be On Bally Sports For The 24-25 Season.

[Arcadian]

But this is the last season with Bally, right?

As long as they get rid of the annoying ASMR montage during commercial breaks I'll be fine.

Was that supposed to be ASMR?? It sounded super annoying and grating on the ears, like static white noise fading in and out. ASMR is supposed to be pleasant

Last year, it was $9.99 a month. For a 6 month regular season, it’s 13-14 games per month, not all of which will be on Bally, but it still works out pretty cheap on a per game basis.

You mean $19.99/month

Apparently Amazon also bailed on doing anything with Bally's. I guess after they won the NBA deal they didn't need it. I'm curious what Ballys does without that Amazon money?

I get the feeling Amazon was focusing on the national rights first. Regional deals may have been a fallback or maybe regional deals presented a technical challenge for Channels that would need some time to work out. Becoming a creditor of Bally's probably helps Amazon get an inside track for any existing deals Bally's fails to honor. I imagine baseball complicates things further.

My typo. Still reasonable on a per game basis.

I would mute when ever that would come up.....I prefer to see the same commercial over and over again that this annoying thing. Other than that I really did not have any problems just a few times where it would randomly sign me out during a live stream but they were few and rare occasions.

I may be in the minority here, but I'm sort of tired of the local broadcast team. I know there will be changes, but as much as I love Sean the ninja Elliot, I feel like some fresh blood is needed. Fact, I would probably prefer to listen to the away team broadcast if possible.

No you wouldn't when I watch away team streams they're broadcast teams are boring I can't believe a city like San Antonio that they always call a small Market has one of the best broadcast teams

There are some other team calls that are must listens, like the Knicks. Mike Breen is simply the best. I also enjoy the Charlotte game caller for his insane energy, but man that would get old if it was every game. The Nets callers are good too.

Aside from those guys, our team is pretty top notch. Sure there is some homerism (though Sean has gotten better at that), but that’s kinda the whole point of local broadcasters: excite the base.

Lakers feed is second only to Knicks, the only thing I like about that franchise.
NOLA and Heat are also good.

Sacramento is either great or horrible. can't recall

With league pass they don’t always cut to commercials for game breaks soit’s also nice to have actual chicks for cheerleaders versus our game break entertainment.
