18. Nice did not expect 8 TNT games. In their final season we are finally getting some serious shine!

8 of the 18 national TV games are at home....4 of those (and 10 total) are TNT/ABC, which means no Grady/Jim.

Ending the season with Brooklyn and Utah at home should be nice and relaxing...

Minnesota: 4 Tanking Games [Detroit, Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Utah]
OK City: 3 Tanking Games [Chicago, Detroit, Utah]
Denver: 2 Tanking Games [Chicago, Utah]
Dallas: 3 Tanking Games [Chicago, Brooklyn, Toronto]

However, the 2 LAC games and Atlanta game for Dallas could be 6 teams tanking.

San Antonio could be out of the playoffs [No Wemby] and same for Houston [Both OKC and Denver play Houston].

Here's something interesting...

Looking at last year's schedule, all-star voting ran until Saturday, Jan. 20 at 11:59 pm. Starters were announced on Thursday, Jan. 25.

Now look at this stretch:
---Voting likely closes Saturday, Jan. 18---
Monday, Jan. 20 at Memphis (TNT) *MLK Day
Wednesday, Jan. 22 at Dallas (ESPN)
---All-star starters likely announced Thursday, Jan. 23--
Saturday, Jan. 25 vs. Denver (ABC)
Monday, Jan. 27 vs. Atlanta
Wednesday, Jan. 29 at Phoenix
Thursday, Jan. 30 at Utah (TNT) *Reserves announced this night

Think they might be expecting something?

We got the answer. Not counting NBA TV Jon K says 18. That is up from 5. On a side note, that cancer situation I told you guys about with a family member, we got good news today. Nowhere near an all clear, but very good news.
