I think they open the season against Utah. At first I thought the Clippers too. The Utah game's kind of hidden the way the table is laid out. Pretty good choices - a lot of Phoenix and Dallas games - except for the SA game. That's a blowout waiting to happen. 30 point loss!

Lol, thats got to be a franchise record for number of nationally televised games. The last few years we've been getting like 2-4 a year. I knew we'd be getting several national TV games against the Mavs and Suns, those are automatic high ratings and get a lot of interest for regular season games. Those national TV games seem like high pressure games though, facing the Lakers, Clippers, Chicago (2x), New Jersey, Denver, all tough teams and being on national TV ups the ante and makes it fee like a must win. Its nice to be recognized as relevant and exciting by getting all those national TV games though... This schedule seems to differ from ones we've had in the past in that it starts off pretty difficult but gets easier toward the end. 26 of our road games are in November- January and theres 15 from February-April (only 1 road game in the entire month of February!). Also the difficulty of the teams seems to start off very tough but become softer toward the middle of the season, then get tough towards the end of the season again.
20 national TV games! Damn, looks like the NBA is really starting to notice us. Can't wait to kick some Jazz ass.
It was Warriors vs. Jazz on game 2 of TNT, but then the league pulled the schedule when the KG deal went down (probably to find a way to televise more Boston games, possibly the opener). I guess they have re-published it, and the GS vs. Jazz is now official?
