NBA season 2019/20

Anyone wanting to follow Steven Adams and OKC on TV will have to purchase NBA League Pass. In a league where NBA super stars equal commercial income the loss of Russ and PG has meant OKC have plummeted from 27 national TV games (ABC, ESPN, TNT) in 2018-19 to just 3 for the upcoming season. The Thunder also won't feature on the the NBA's marquee Christmas Day slate for the first time since 2009.
Brooklyn will have 12 games on TV.
-
There is still roughly a third of the league (10 teams) with even fewer national TV games than OKC for this upcoming season:
Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, Detroit, Memphis, Minnesota, Orlando, Phoenix, Sacramento, Washington.
@KiwiMurph And look at the records of those teams last season. OKC is now lumped in with the also-rans and other small market teams.
Obviously the local TV stations will broadcast many of their games but it's different for the international viewer.

Dwight Howard will join the Lakers to replace Boogie who was lost to another long term injury. After the last tenure Dwight must have humbled himself big time to get back in.

Looks like he's done just that, and the contract is non-guaranteed. If he missteps he's gone
-
Whatever your opinion of Adams' stance on the TBs, the guy is doing his bit for the yoof. 3 camps for over 1000 kids free of charge, and he appears in person

New Season tipped off yday with the PG-less Clippers smoking Lebron's Lakers.
Kawhi too efficient with 30pts on only 19 shots (Lebron 19pts same no. shots) and the LAC bench too strong.
Also, Zion is out for 6-8 weeks for knee surgery for being too fat AND too athletic simultaneously.
-
Season properly underway today with 11 games.
It's a fucking grind, but should be an interesting season, as we really don't know who is going to win. Both conferences look wide open.

Exciting opening night with the all-LA affair. Lou Williams and Harrell doing their thing and adding Leonard. No PG, but still get the win.

LeBron at PG is not going to get it done this year

I think it showed that they missed Rondo’s game management. Rondo will be on restricted minutes when he comes back too.

@ACT-Crusader it's also a bit of a worry when you're counting on Rondo! It's been a while since he was any good and he still can't shoot.
It's such a weird team.

Can still run a decent two man game and find shooters. Has a good combo with AD also.

What shooters though? Other than Green they have nothing!
