8 games, none on national TV/stream
I don't understand why the NBA refuses to put a game on NBATV on nights where there is no nationally televised NBA game. I know they're afraid of competing H2H against the NFL but they own their own channel so why not put a game on tonight anyway? So what if its ratings are lowered because of the NFL Sunday Night game, it's still going to draw way more viewers than whatever they were going to broadcast.

NBA is more on the side of youtube clips, Instagram content, people following bball podcasts, jersey sales and life style over broadcasting their sport.

Putting a game on NBA TV is almost worse than not broadcasting it nationally, hardly anybody subscribes to the channel.
