coverage map for lakers/kings game here !
- Thread starter kingsville
- Start date
The Lakers are in a HUGE market and have always had a national following (of course, based on the posters on this thread, it looks like the Kings have a national following themselves 
) and the Kings vs. Lakers matchup has been THE rivalry matchup these past 4 years, and these schedules are made up before the season starts, so I'm guessing ABC didn't anticipate the Lakers circling the drain the way they have been this season.

That's the whole thing, PP. You hit that nail squarely. No need to get lathered up about this.
The fact that they're lotto bound doesn't really matter. In 1993, they were a mediocre playoff-bound team, but they only had a few games on NBC that year. In 1994, they had no games on NBC. Why? Sedale Threatt was their best guard. Now, Kobe Bryant is. The Lakers will get some nat'l broadcasts because of that regardless of their prospects, just like the Cavs being so ubiquitous in 2003.
Sedale was my main man! Most beloved non-star in La La since Rambo Rambis:

My dear, slugking50, my local sports bar is going to have the same games. I have LP and will have more games than they do, but I still will not get the Kings/Lakers game. Arghhhhhh!!!!!!
every sports bar ive been to had satilites and could get different stations from all around the country. Maybe the shouldnt be so cheap and should invest in a good satilite dish?
