How many national games this year?

Last year we managed to get a few thanks to the Rubio hype and having the number 2 pick. With the Wolves making strides last season, Love, Roy, Rubio when he returns, how many games do you think we will get this year? Will we get a game on TNT? I think I heard the last time we were on there was 2004. Crazy.

When are they decided/announced? If it is after free agency I could see us getting quite a few. The addition of Roy - a solid young team. If we are able to get Batum - perhaps another free agent as well - we could get a lot.

Last year, it was announced July 19. The year before, August 3rd.

Prediction: We WILL get at least one TNT game, as well as a couple on ESPN. Chuck talks about Kevin too much not to. I think the likeliest matchups are vs OKC, LAC, POR.

Id imagine that theyd be later in the season so that Rubio is back and healthy/up to speed

They should have 10, Rubio is the most exciting player to watch in the NBA in my opinion.
