Foxtel NBA Schedule Thread

[PHX]

Only games found so far is on October 31st Fox sports 1 @ 4:30pm "TBA vs TBA."

I hope that is Houston vs. LA but I have a funny feeling it'll be San Antonio vs Portland.


Looks like I might be blessed again with my token one Orlando Magic game for the year.

Man. I. Am. Pumped.

as the wonderful (shitful) team at ESPN thoughtfully cast their games week to week (months and months in advance) to ensure their viewers see the most exciting talent in the NBA (boring f**kin spurs/pistons week after week) they'll certainly kick the season off with a high scoring prime time match of two WESTERN conference heavyweights, LA Lakers VS Houston (portland V spurs)....did ya get all that..

nah serioulsy gotta be laker V houston doesn't it....

really pumped for the year tho...

teams this year that'll be great to watch...Knicks(zach, stephs, curry, crawford), Celtics(KG,PP, Ray-Ray), Magic(Howard&Rashard), Golden State(just youtube BARON DAVIS), Denver(only team that will lose when they score 120+)...hopefully ESPN see it the same way

Does anybody know what the deal is with ESPN and the eastern conference finals? Its probally been discussed on here before but I cant find it. Why didnt they show any eastern conference finals games?

 

[PHX]

4:30 pm??

Yeah bizarre time I know.

Its a delayed telecast for some reason.

Just noticed on the 31st there is TBA vs. TBA scheduled as well for 9:30 on Fox Sports 1.

Let's hope these are different games.


Strange ESPN arent showing one on the 30th or 31st.

All I want is to see the Raps play at least once this year. I dont particuarly care about the rest of the schedule, as long as they play one Raps game. We had a decent enough season last year, so we should get a game. Right?

*hopes and prays*

Fri, Jan 04 Detroit Toronto 7:00 PM ET ESPN --, FSN Detroit

Is looking your best bet.

Like Orlando, just the one with the Cavs on "national" tv in the US.

Just have to hope it's shown here.

 

[Hodges]

God I hope your right. I remember last year they were going to be showing Raps v Wizards (before Gil and Butler got injured too) yet they cancelled it at the last minute and ended up showing Indiani vs some boring team. Sooo angry...

 

[justthedukes]

I think these are the games ESPN are showing in November.

Oct 17th: 10pm to 12.30am - Cavs vs Magic (Preseason from China)

Nov 1st: Mavs @ Cavs 11am to 1.30pm
Nov 3rd: Lakers @ Suns 1.30pm to 4pm
Nov 8th: Heat @ Spurs 12noon to 2.30pm
Nov 10th: Suns @ Heat 11.30am to 2pm
Nov 15th: Lakers @ Rockets 1pm to 3.30pm
Nov 17th: Pistons @ Lakers 2.30pm to 5pm
Nov 22nd: Lakers @ Bucks 12noon to 2.30pm
Nov 24th: Lakers @ Celtics 11.30am to 2pm
Nov 29th: Cavs @ Pistons 11.30am to 2pm

Still dont know what Fox Sports (if they're still showing games) are on. I'm not 100% sure that this schedule is right, but it doesnt look too bad. Lakers fans would be happy.

Thats a good website to find out what ESPN Australia are showing, just go to TV listings and work from there.

It might only be pre-season but SO FREAKIN PUMPED!

 

[celtic_pride]

I'm hoping FX 3 shows a few more Celts games (even at an ungodly hour)

The Mavs V Cavs season opener is crap ...
Surely KG and Ray Ray's debut for the Celts against the Wiz ???

How come the dullards (Mavs) and the team that's never won anything (the creepland cavs) get an season opener ? Who would follow those teams that have never won anything nor ever will ???

Lebron Vs Dirk, I dont think thats a bad match-up to watch?

Be intresting to see how the mavs/dirk goes this year after what happened in the playoffs.

 

[Red.White and Blue]

I cant wait for the NBA season. They never show any Jazz games here and they made the western finals last year.

Oct 17th: 10pm to 12.30am - Cavs vs Magic (Preseason from China)

Its on the ESPN website to be shown on AUS ESPN but not on the Foxtel or Austar guides??

Can someone tell me if it will be shown or not?

Cheers.

HEEEEELLLL YEAAAH! Pumped now.

Thanks for the confirmation.

So let me get this right is fox sports showing NBA games this season? I can't quite remember but they didn't show games last season did they? I'm happy with all the Lakers games they are showing

 

[Hodges]

Last season both Fox Sports and ESPN showed games. ESPN would always show two games a week, Fox Sports would show up to two games a week. Sometimes none though - was kinda odd how they did that.

Hopefully we get four games being shown every week this season.

Ok thanks. I couldn't even remember how many games were on a week last year and i watched like every game. Haha bad memory i guess. Yeah 4 games a week sounds great!

 

[DaveyBlues]

The playoffs coverage seriously piss me off, didn't even get to watch Pistons Cavs.

Yeha that was dissapointing.

Did anyone watch ESPN yesterday?

On the TV guide (not the book, the TV guide on foxtel) it said Live NBA pre-season at 2:30. I wasnt around then and was wondering what game they showed.

 

[TheNextBigThing]

Cavs/Magic from China was the game they shown on Saturday

Geez, enough of the bloody lakers.


If Kobe gets traded, I'm sure they'll be regretting all those LAL games.
