[kingsville]

http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/tvlistings/map?date=20050410&sport=nba

This time about 75-80 % country can actually see the game !

 

[BBallGrl15]

Too bad I fall in the 20-25% that can't see the game.

 

[rnmeuy]

I'm in the same boat BBallGrl and I didn't get to watch this past sunday's game either.

 

[kingsfannPDX]

80% is because of the lakers. if we were playing any other team it wouldn't have been like that.

Too bad I fall in the 20-25% that can't see the game.

Yeah, tell me about it!

I am getting very sick and tired of this regional coverage by ABC... I am always stuck watching eastern teams...

 

[Peja]

80% of the USA + whole Serbia!!!

 

[mcsluggo]

80% of the area,

but about 30% of the population




unfortunatly I live in the populated portion of the country

 

[teamdimechampionship]

80% is because of the lakers. if we were playing any other team it wouldn't have been like that.

It seems to me like the "EXPERTS" are the only people still interested in the Lakers. Real NBA fans don't give a (insert expletive here) about teams that aren't in the playoff race! Come playoff time I hope I don't hear the words Lakers or Kobe until the lottery and then again not till the draft. Last time I checked the Lakers weren't any better than the Clippers. When'e the last time you heard or saw anything about the Clippers!

There was a headline in the Davis Enterprise that pretty much summed it up quite nicely:

SHAQ-LESS Los Angeles still crumbling

Lakers have gone from
powerhouse to outhouse

 

[16to93]

yesss

omg i finally get to watch the game I'm so happy

 

[sloter]

Great, yet another game that I miss ... I hope that this time they have a game which is not painful to watch (like on Cavs-Mavs on Sunday).

 

[Viking]

Just barely, but I get to see it.

 

[iheartBrad]

ofcourse

 

[mikebibby1034]

Too bad I fall in the 20-25% that can't see the game.

[kingsgurl87]

Too bad I fall in the 20-25% that can't see the game.

[piksi]

ABC SUCKS !!!!!!!!



Luckly, I can drive home and watch it there. (250 miles in one direction).




ABC SUCKS !!!!!!!!

 

[KingCookie]

My buddy in Oregon is going to be stoked. He was a victim of the last ABC snafu.

 

[PejaFanatic]

ABC sux along with Al Michaels.

I swear the Lakers are getting all the love and they aint gonna make it to the Playoffs....

 

[M10Bibby]

I'm in the same boat BBallGrl and I didn't get to watch this past sunday's game either.

me to...i got jipppedd

 

[Daniela]

Arrrgh. That makes me upset for you guys. I live in Cali. so of course I get to watch, but the same thing happened the other day when Detroit played the Spurs on ABC. I wanted to tape the Detroit game for my husband and they ended up showing the Phoenix game. The only good thing is that on Monday or Tues night (can't remember) ESPN played the Detroit/Spurs game around 10 or 11 PST. So, MAYBE, they will do that on the East Coast for the Sac/Laker game.

 

[ash24]

ESPN.com's tv schedule says the Laker/King game is being shown Monday Apr. 11 from 3 to 5 am. (So actually late Sunday night) It's not the same as live, but those of us on the East Coast can at least tape it to watch this time.

 

[iheartBrad]

good lookin out ash

 

[KingsChick]

This really makes me sick of how selfish ABC is.

EXPERTS=david stern

 

[LMM]

!

Too bad I fall in the 20-25% that can't see the game.

me, too

and since i live in north NJ, i could've just watched that NY vs indiana game @ MSG channel if i wanted to (which i don't)!

3 times ABC has done this when the kings are on. and 3 times i missed the game because of this. i am so frickin mad at ABC!

 

[bozzwell]

I really hate ABC. I've asked my wife to put a parent lock on ABC and NEVER tell me the password.

 

[6th]

I suggest an email be sent to the NBA by everyone who is upset with ABC's regional coverage crap. Our game is on our schedule as a televised game, but it doesn't do much good with this regional garbage.

Here's another issue to complain to the NBA about. Some of us pay for League Pass, and it cost us a pretty penny. If ABC is going to play with our ability to watch our team, then we should be able to watch them on League Pass. God knows we paid enough for the privilege.

 

[mikebibby1034]

serisouly abc should just say there showing this game or that game not make it messed up like it is and get peoples hopes up thinking there going to be watching a kings game, but then f*** it up so there not. Man this really blows....

Lol. Programmers disagree.

 

[Viking]

Gargamel's right, there will always be demand for the Lakers, especially the Lakers with Kobe.
