In the 2016-17 NBA season the NBA will have a chance to change networks which means that Comcast can get the rights back to the league for NBC Sports.

:wtf: :krs: :gladbron:

I doubt the NBA will change.

Disney's money is too long.

They got ESPN and ABC.

ESPN will still show NBA games but I don't see them letting in NBC which competes with ABC

But if NBC wanted to make a paradigm shift and pay the NBA to move to the NBC sports network :krs:

I didnt say it wasnt great, BUT it was only great when the NBA was great.

Like I said, y'all NEVER mention the Lakers/Net's, Net's/Spurs years of the NBA on NBC, b/c they SUCKED and the league in general was boring back then.

It's always the Jordan/Kemp/Olajuwon/Shaq/Knicks/Pacers, etc days.

This thread isn't about the the actual GAMES though, we're talking about the presentation of NBA on NBC. I think everybody universally will agree that during the Lakers 1st 3-peat the league was in a down spiral until the 03 draft class came through and resurrected the league.

HEY, DO YALL REMEMBER THE COMMERCIALS THAT THEY WOULD SHOW PREVIEWING THE GAMES FOR NEXT WEEK??? PHENOMENAL.

ESPN/ABC gives us WAY more games though, so I'll take that.

i take it you didnt watch all the games on tbs & tnt.?

ABC/ESPN getting the broadcast rights was terrible from the outset. NBC seemed to care more about having the NBA than ABC/ESPN do. Plus I remember the epic unintentional comedy of the Snapper Jones/Bill Walton team

i remember when they left nbc for abc/espn. it was crazy because nbc had arena football looking more official than the nba gams on abc.

i also remember being :wtf: at abc showing one game on sundays and the cutting to stuff like formula-1 racing.

shyt brings back memories of:

The Orlando Arena
The Summit
Delta Center
Key Arena
Miami Arena
Alamodome
Market Square Arena
Chicago Stadium
The Forum
Knicks vs Heat

We'll never get those days back :sadcam:

yea, those arenas were magical and more intense.

man, somebody remind me to pull my sega genesis out this weekend. its on like neckbone.

Comcast owns 51% of NBC. If anyone has the resources and power to give ABC/Disney a run for their money for NBA rights, it's Comcast.

I remember when a young Shaq broke his first NBA basket. There was like a 20 minutes delay for them to put up a new one. It was nothing but jokes from Costas, Vescey, Walton, and Albert.

Marv was so legendary with his "YES." NBA Live incoporated into the games.
