Preseason Games on TV?

[rekehavoc123]

Are there going to be any preseason games on TV this year? As far as I know there will be two which will be Kings vs Raptors on CSNCA on October 7th and Kings vs Lakers on Time Warner Sports Net (Lakers TV) on October 24th. I wonder if NBATV will pick up the Kings vs Nets in China since they usually broadcast the global games. I'm hoping the Kings get more than two preseason games on TV.

Keep looking it might change. LP is pretty blank looking right now.

League Pass rarely plays the preseason games. NBA TV will play quite a few I'm sure and show re runs throughout the day so you won't miss a beat.

While NBA-TV may feature some of the pre-season games, I'm nowhere near as confident as you are that they'll show all the Kings games. I personally would rather flood the front office with emails and tweets ahead of time to make sure there's no doubt we're serious about wanting to see our Kings every single time they step on the court.

 

[rekehavoc123]

How do we do that though? Contact Vivek? Do you know his email or phone number?

I didn't mean NBA TV showing every Kings preseason game. I meant just the preseason in general. I should of worded it different, whoops!

I sent my email to cgranger@kings.com and tweeted to @cgkings - those are the contacts for Chris Granger, who is really tuned in to the social media.

NFL Network is 100% better than NBA TV...NFL Network replays the best games from the Sunday's games in 30 minute segments just in case for those who missed some of the games or it wasn't televised locally. I love it, it's a new addition they incorporated this season. NBA TV is rather dull in my opinion.

True they repeat game time for like 15hrs they should just replay games from the day that weren't on tv

I assume that might be for domestic users since last year I pretty much watched as many preseason games as I wanted on LP as a international.

That's too logical for NBA TV I suppose, hence why I don't see it happening in the near future.

International League Pass differs from standard NBA League Pass. Not just that, with International LP, you get more games in high definition which is great because the league pass I have only gives me one channel with the ability to watch a game in high-def besides the local team.

Ok so there will be two more games which will be broadcasted on NBATV which will be Kings vs Nets Oct.11th and Oct.15th. That makes a total of four games on TV.

I was going to say I hope the 2 china games would be on national tv.

 

[rekehavoc123]

Does anyone know how does NBATV get the arena feeds when they show the highlights. I wonder why don't the Kings show the arena feeds instead. I know it has to do with money, but this has happened for the last 4 season as far as I can recall. Everyone should email the Kings. I have already emailed them.

 

[rekehavoc123]

Does anyone have any updates on whether CSNCA or any other channels will be broadcasting the games. Preseason starts this Saturday by the way. The Kings will start playing on Sunday.

 

[rekehavoc123]

I have already contacted Comcast Sports Net and the Kings, but no update on the TV status of the games.

 

[Jkbiker]

The Kings.com schedule shows this Tues home game vs raptors will be on CSN

I don't see if Sundays game in Toronto is on TV anywhere?

The two China Games vs the Nets I believe will be on NBATV

Isn't this game vs. Toronto but played in Vancouver, same time zone?

 

[Jkbiker]

Yes Sundays game in vs Toronto it is 4pm Pacific in Sacto and 7 pm Toronto time zone
So would be 4pm in Vancouver

But still do not think there is any TV coverage on Sunday's Game

Just the Tues 7 pm game in Sac is on CSN

 

[Sluggah]

I honestly don't get how, in this day and age, ALL this stuff isn't just available online, free or paid. I know there are cameras rolling and I know bandwidth is pretty cheap.

Please NBA...TAKE MY MONEY! I'm begging you.

PRE-EMPTIVE REMINDER: Any discussion of any broadcast NOT authorized by the NBA is forbidden, not allowed, not condoned, etc.

 

[HereWeBoogie]

That sucks if we only get to see one Preseason game

 

[VF21]

Just a reminder: There was a time when NO pre-season games were broadcast.

 

[Bricklayer]

Look, this is all I'm going to say on this: if Toronto broadcasts it, then the broadcast exists. And if the Kings don't want to get a little ad money from telecasting it themselves, then that's on them. People will be watching it one way or the other. That's just the modern reality.

Didn't we have several preseason games on last season? If I'm remembering that correctly, it seems odd with everything else being upgraded and "advanced", that we wouldn't have at least as many on from this point forward
