I was looking at the Nuggets schedule and realized they don't play the Knicks again this year and it made me wonder how will the press cover that game. Do you think it will be a nationally televised game or local game in which they try not to say anything about it?I personally think they are going to be all over it. It will make ESPN or TNT and I bet they talk about it nonstop. I will probably just watch it on the local station because of that. Anything that happens I think they will make a comment about the brawl.
I really don't care about that brawl... At all... Whatsoever...It was a situation where several dully grown men came off as children. It happens sometimes, and as history tells us, nothing similar is going to happen when these teams play again...Except for the Nuggets raping the Knicks of course
I dont think it'll be a big televised game on TNT or ESPN. If I remember correctly, when Artest went back to Detriot, it wasnt nationally televised. They arent rivals by any means and should be just a local game.
If I had to predict anything, I would think that it would be a nationally televised game. These kinds of things would draw alot of attention to the NBA from alot of non-fans, and I think that if it aired on ESPN or TNT, that alot more people would watch it waiting to see if something similar would happen. Although I dont personally think it should be aired on national television, I think that it has a very good chance. I think that there would be alot of money made, and it seems like Denver plays alot of nationally viewed games anyways....
I doubt it will be televised. the pistons and pacers are very strong rivals, they hate each other. the nuggets and knicks, not so much. the game was a blow out that got out of hand because the knicks were being a poor sport. I don't expect much to come from this.

I doubt it makes TNT though...
