Preseason TV schedule

Fixed that for you.
But seriously, no preseason games? Maybe if they didn't have their collective heads up their collective asses they'd realize that there are people out there who at this point are desperate to watch preseason games. Advertising revenue, guess who doesn't need it? Pathetic losers.

For some reason I remember Pre Season games being watchable a few years ago. Am I wrong? Regardless its BS that they aren't televised.

They stopped a few years ago as did a lot of teams due to the economy.

Can't find the Suns game listed anywhere, but I see they will be showing Kings vs. Lakers on the 21st. So, at least 1 game.

I don't buy that... like a few extra televised games are going to break the bank. If anything its probably profitable to air the pre season.

thing is, that right now they haven't listed ANY televised games for the upcoming season, so I'm not sure the local schedules have been released yet for some reason. Checked Phoenix and Portland (our first 2 preseason opponents) adn their schedules were the same way.

Would expect the 3 Kings-Lakers games to be on either Comcast Sports or FoxSports as I forgot which was the $2B media contract the Lakers signed this summer. Somebody know?? We SoCal KingsFans should see those three for sure, but any more...?? no idea.

The game against Pheonix is listed on NBATV at 7pm on Wed. Haven't looked further than that yet.

While yes I like to agree fully. The fact is just about all the teams pulled their preseason games from TV over the past few years. The only ones that didn't were the larger markets ie lakers, knicks , bulls.

Last year was 2 games and they wanted good will to bring back the fans from the lockout.
try this one from 2 years ago

0 this year is fewer than 2 last year. And the Maloofs have plenty of need to seek out good will in the community even without a lockout this season. Plenty. Extra plenty overarching need.

I was referring the NBA wanting good will. If I recall correctly, last year the Kings broadcast their home game and the Warriors did their home game. It was a unique situation where both preseason games were against the same appoint who happened to be the closest in distance.
The years prior the only broadcast games I remember were against the Lakers on NBA TV in Vegas.

I could have sworn they showed them last year. I remember because it was one of the few times Jimmer looked good.
It was a Warriors-Kings back to back. They split coverage on that as I recall.

Yes, that was the one i was thinking of.

Hard to watch a game that isn't being broadcast by either team.

someone said it was on NBA TV but it isn't listed as such on nba.com so i assume that is a no go.
I have league pass and a fair few pre season games are "not televised" so it doesn't carry all the games, even though they obviously film all of them because they all have "highlights"

Right. One of the teams has to be broadcasting for it to be available. They use a few more cameras for local broadcasts vs non broadcast for highlights and 2 or more for National games.

do you know which team/institution broadcast the Magic - Hornets game in Mexico City? they showed a broadcast without commentary, but that might just have been because there was only the Mexican commentary available and they didn't have the rights to that. anyway, I just won't get my hopes up for tomorrow then.

It is listed on NBA TV for direct tv. Does anyone know if you are local if we actually get this feed or if we are blacked out?

I've seen conflicting reports on that. NBA.com says it won't be on nba tv, but the channel lineup says it will. My basketball jones is giving me the d.t.'s.
