Why is Denver vs Cleveland not on network TV??

[PO69]

This is the last time that they meet this season and this game is not on TV???????? Are you kidding me??? Lebron is NOTHING compared to Camelo at this time!!


The one problem that I have with Lebron right now is that he doesnt take enough shots! He would score more and create more fouls for the opposing team!

Of course they are both having a shitty day today! Maybe Carmelo will heat it up in the 4th!

First- Get NBA TV, it probably costs less than your avg bet.

Second- LeBron is much bett than "melo" in so many ways. I think Melo has a ceiling as far as his potential goes and he is close to it now.. he will be a 20 pt/ 5 rebound guy. and nothing else. and he will be a 40% shooter at best. Melo is selfish. He tells Andre Miller, the least selfish PG in the NBA, that he needs to think pass more and worry about his shot less. give me a break.

Lebron gets everyone involved, the passes this guy makes is riduculous, I am privleged enough to be able to see every one of this guys games.

Lebron is the closest thing to a modern day Oscar Robertson we will ever see. right now as a ROOKIE he is averagin 17 7 and 6

nuff said.

I agree. nothing like watching Lebron turn it over 9 times or anthony try and shoot his way out of a slump. you should get the package. nothing like watching mcgrady guide his team to 15 straight losses while he gets billed as the next jordan and a couple teenagers get praise like theyve done something worth mulling over.

but that one play in the first game of the season. when there was a 2-0 break and lebron carefully underhanded it to his team mate for a dunk. man that was some stuff. i can see why people are siked. i could never carefully underhand it when me and my team mate are the only two guys within 40 ft of the basket.

top two cliches in sports:

1.manning intercepted
2.lebron turns it over

 

[MrKennedy]

Rob you are severely missing the point as to why that was such a great play in the beginning of the season.

 

[PO69]

I have the package, but I dont have it on all 10 TV's in the house! So I cant watch the game in every room, only 2 of them! I am just shocked that 99% of America cannot see this game, that was all

 

[GreenDoberman]

What's shocking about it, players, it's really just one bad and one average team playing each other. Take away the hype, and it's a regional game at best.

 

[winkyduck]

keep in mind the rights holders to both teams pay a decent amount of money for the right to show these teams - and when espn showed it - neither could. you have to do something to protect rightsholders.

 

[SunDevil]

Perhaps because at least 2 of the other 4 games on the board featured better players facing off? (Iverson vs Carter, T-Mac vs Baron). Hell, Michael Redd vs either Jason Terry or Shareef Abdur-Rahim is probably just as strong a matchup as Carmelo/Lebron. Maybe in 2 years things are different, but not now.

Is Tuesday even a night for the NBA on national TV?

TNT only has games on Thursday night. And ESPN/ESPN2 had the Big Ten/ACC Challenge tonight. So that probably answers your question about network TV.
