Basketball going back to NBC Broadcasts

[Covert Rain]

I wouldn’t be too sure. Cord cutters didn’t have access to TNT.

I am one of them. Maybe not all but TNT has been part of my last two live streaming subscriptions (I have Hulu now).

I have the local channels including channel 3 in Arizona, plus TNT and ESPN on DirecTV satellite.

Recently I lost access to NBA TV on my package. I hope that is enough to follow the Suns.

Consider Sling if you want a cheaper alternative and get away from cable. They have ESPN, TNT, and NBA TV on a plan for $30 a month, I think. I always sign up for the playoffs and ditch it when the Suns get booted so usually get a promotional price for a month before it gets billed again.

Thanks. I will check it out. Hopefully they carry the local channels.

I'd like to keep Discovery and National Geographic as well.

Local channels aren't included. You can get those with an antenna. I believe Discovery and Nat Geo are on there though.

You'd be surprised, there are a lot of places in this country where antennas are basically useless. And that includes where I live as we can't get any channel even with a rooftop antenna.

Even on YouTube tv?

Yep this is exactly what I used to do. This past year i've been TV subscription free though with the games being aired over rabbit ears. But that one Sling package packs a lot of value.

Before most streaming services was DTV Stream, I think it was called, it was only $45, just before youtubeTV was a thing. That streaming package was amazing, but dtv caught on and removed the service and started charging differently.

Based on price alone Youtube TV is a cable service. Just happens to not have cable.

I am out of antenna range, so this keeps me with DirecTV. The local channels give me the Cardinals and Suns, at least for now.

There doesn't seem to be one affordable, perfect television package anymore.

Love love love the NBA on NBC theme music.

Charles Barkley issues statement about TNT losing NBA rights: 'It just sucks'

In characteristically blunt fashion, Barkley suggested the NBA had never been interested in keeping TNT as one of its television partners.

Don't get too excited. Unrivaled is a women's 3v3 league. Real head scratcher to try and push this as an alternative to the NBA. The Big 3 never took off like some hoped and I can't see a women's version hitting big either as it's a small niche within a niche.

I can't recall I've ever watched a 3x3 game. I'm not sure how much of a market there is for it.

Now I have played some shorthanded playground type basketball and it's fun to play.
