The schedule isn't very relevant to me. We play the teams they give us to play. When the games are played and whether they're on National TV means nothing to me. I'd prefer we have a smaller than average allotment of back2back games. That's about it.

Full schedule comes out tomorrow.

Gives us all something to speculate on until the season starts brother :wink:

I think the biggest takeaway so far is that we are staying in the national spotligt. Opening week and Christmas Day are a couple of the biggest 'stages' in the league, and we're going to be a big part of both.

Never mind about the schedule as we plan to go 82-0 this year

I like the way you think, but you forgot 16-0 in the playoffs.

Only two teams have more national games than us. That's a huge leap from seasons past where we maybe had 2 games at time or none. Guess getting rid of all that built in Turner bias has helped :wink:

For the Peacock and Prime games, does anyone know if they’ll be broadcasting locally on these nights? FSN or I guess BSN these days?

Nice to get the full schedule release. Another 2 months to wait !

I'm still trying to figure that out myself. My current understanding is that they will be exclusive to those platforms. But I honestly don't know for certain.

I count 13 B2Bs. I don't mind the H/H B2B as no travel is required. I don't really mind the R/R B2B either as it knocks out 2 road games. We have two R/H B2Bs though and San Antonio and OKC get us on our home court in January after we've had to play a road game and travel to Minneapolis the day before.

Sounds less than ideal. Do you know the average amount of B2Bs?

Do NBA teams play back to back games?
AI Overview
Yes, NBA teams play back-to-back games, meaning they play two games on consecutive days. While the league aims to minimize these, they are a necessary part of the 82-game schedule. This season, the average team will play around 14-15 back-to-backs.
