    So we jumped up to 8 nationally televised games while four NBA teams are at 2.

    So Yang has given the Blazers a 400% boost in number of national TV games.

    Considering we now have 8 national games yeah I'd have thought ESPN or ABC would have 1-2. The projected wins don't matter, we have Yang.

    Agreed.

    I hate the "ESPN on ABC" thing. Just have it on ESPN or have it on ABC. Stupid confusing delivery.

    They also put talking heads that yell stupid takes like Steven A Smith or Perkins on instead of well spoken guys who have a few minutes to speak like the TNT crew.

    I'm doubting the TNT crew going to ESPN will work at all. ESPN can't help themselves and will cut the times those guy have, and they will lead into sportscenter with stupid Scott Van Pelt as though he has some show we want to watch.

    NBC yes I'm curious how it works. Just having the Tesh theme will be awesome regardless of what else they do.

    I think it has more to do with the fact that there are a lot more NBA national TV games with the new TV deal.

    probably...I did a quick and dirty calculation in my slow and dirty mind and came up with 452 national games. That's a lot of games for a 6 month season; about 75 a month...wow. If all tings were equal (which they never are), the average number of games per team would be 15

    I'm also wondering if that schedule is subject to change....I'm guessing that it is
