Pistons fans complaining about getting no games on ESPN....our team has been ass for over a decade, no one outside of Detroit cares. Why is this news? ESPN coverage is awful anyways.

To watch other teams not televised requires a league pass which cost more money.


There's many options for different content, better to get league pass, & some other streaming services then to have cable.

And on top of that, they're on the road so the spread probably won't even be single digits lol.

It's how the GSW owners can afford their insane luxury tax bill. They have the pull to get the league to give them Lakers at GSW arena on opening day, to rake in all that moolah.

Do you really think there's a big delta in revenue if this is in october or september? It'll be a sell out either way and it'll be premium priced either way.

Top 10:

Lakers: 39
Celtics: 37
Sixers: 34
Suns: 34
Bucks: 32
Clippers: 32
Mavericks: 30
Grizzlies: 28
Nuggets: 28
Lakers getting 39 games is absolute ****.

They still have lebron...he could be 40 and coming off the bench but people will want to see him play. Same with MJ on the Wizards. If they were giving the lakers these games WITHOUT lebron, you'd have a great point and I'd agree. But people want to see Lebron.

I get it, but when your team didn't make the playoffs the previous season, giving them the second highest number of national TV games seems a bit much. I'd much rather see more of the Nuggets, Grizzlies and Mavericks.

league pass?



Yes, I have it but these teams needs to be garnering more national attention.


They're in the top 10. The league is conservative with bringing up and coming teams into the fold. But they are clearly indicating they're up and coming teams to feature.

Sometimes it's fun to watch games at bars with friends....or it was back in the olden days before the C word.
