They did. They took out several right after the injury, then scrambled like crazy to get them back during the 13 game win streak.

well i understand why the Raptors will never be getting a slot on US national TV, but why Utah?

^^ The Jazz are a small market team, and it's nearly impossible for such teams to get more than a couple national TV games a year.

Not REALLY true. Portland was supposed to have around 20, the majority of them being Oden vs premier big man or Oden v Durant, but a lot of them were pulled after he got hurt.
