how any nationally televised games will youre team have this year?

National Game Appearances In 14 15 By Team - RealGM Wiretap

my spurs have 19, while cleveland, okc, chicago, LAC,LAL, all have more. and warriors have 19 also.
it really sucks if youre a griz, celtics, bucks, magic, philly, or jazz fan, they all have 0 or 1 nationally televised game this season.

Hey, anybody remember Sesame Street?

One of these teams is not like the others....one of these teams does not belong....

^^^ yes, why is it the Lakers get 20 games but the Celtics only only get one? Both legendary teams are below average this year.

All about ratings. I guess lotsa people like to root both for and against the Lakers and of course there is the kobe factor. They'd didn't pick the Lakers by accident.

Me personally, I have no interest in tuning in to watch the Lakers this year.

I'd rather watch Philly and at least see how Embiid is developing.

The Lakers are the most popular franchise and there are limited west coast teams that can host the late night half of a typical NBA doubleheader.

Do games televised on cable's WGN count for the Bull's 25? They are tied with OKC and Cleveland for first place.

and Miami is down to only 15 games. Ouch.

I think it also has to do with the PST time slot....the Warriors used to get a few of those TNT second-slot games in their down years simply for being a West Coast team. I do think the Celtics have enough national fans to warrant more than one game for the season, still.
