Wait... 14 national tv games?

On one hand we finna get the recognition we deserved.

On the other hand we always suck on national TV so pencil in 14 losses right away?

I would say those peacock & prime games are more like NBA TV type of games. So for me the real nationally televised games are the NBC, ESPN or abc games. And we only got 6 of those. We should have more.

Peacock and Prime are National TV games, no way they should be equivalent to NBATV games.

However because of Peacock and Prime, theres National TV games almost every day. So that definitely needs to take in account with the 14 National TV games. Every team certainly got a bump in national tv games simply because there are more to be had.

Jan 15th is going to be INSANE. That is the must watch game of the year. All of Germany there to see 3 of their sons is going to be awesome.

For the Peacock games, is that going to be required to pay? Will FanDuel Sports Florida carry these games?

There’s a bit of a post-All-Star break schedule crunch which isn’t great but that’s due to the Europe trip. Other than that, not bad.

Boys get to party in Chicago for New Year’s? I know two players that like that.

Prime and Peacock are more nationally televised games than NBA TV ever was.
14 is still middle of the pack.
Last year we had 5 but I think ended up with 7 (and again, I don’t think NBA TV should have ever counted). We should end up with more than 14 by the end of the regular season.

We could theoretically go from winning the NBA Cup in Vegas to a short flight to Denver which is nice.
And going from a Los Angeles All-Star break straight into opening another West trip in Sacramento I like. Assuming we don’t cheap out on the travel and hotel stays.

Those will be separate entirely from FanDuel, but I would wait for the local broadcast info to come out in September.

I'm going to Orlando in November and of course the 2 teams we are facing are going to be high dollar games, the Warriors and Clippers.

It’s getting closer and closer to training camp! Woooohooooo. I like that we have far more national exposure, however, I feel it’s not quite enough. But who am I but a solid homer.

I don't use Peacock, I assume that the sports package is separate and has a fee and if that is the case that is frustrating, specially with having to pay Fanduel...

There's no separate sports fee on Peacock to watch the NBA.

Peacock currently costs $10.99 per month for the ads version and $16.99 per month for the ad-free version.

If you buy it for the full year, it's *slightly* cheaper, $109.99 for the ads version ($9.17 per month) and $169.99 ($14.17 per month) for the ad-free version.

The Magic don't play their first game on Peacock until December, so you really only have to have Peacock for 4 months - December, January, February and March. You won't need it for October, November or April (unless they flex games).

You don't need Amazon Prime Video for Magic games in October, November, December or April either.

‘DUNK’

I’ll be going to the first cup game against Boston (surprised decently priced compared to other big and popular team games (Lakers, Knicks, Wolves, Spurs). The variable pricing is absurd for some games.

I like Peacock overall. Premier League, Olympics (Winter Games happening early next year), Tour de France.

What is the local broadcast for the Magic? Fanduel is gone? Or like what I heard, we are going to Amazon Prime

Return to Orlando Magic
