Probably a better bet to lay $100 on advancing to the cup games. Always seems to me like the teams don't play as tough until the last couple games. Blazers could sneak in there.

I never really thought about it this way. You benefit by Portland being a shitty team?

Most definitely. Also we will no longer be broadcasting the first round of the playoffs no matter what. All exclusive from here on out.
Shit, a 5 game series would pay my family’s bills for a month.
 
8 national games. We had what - 1 each of the last couple years?

Probably 3 big factors for the increase
A. Strong finish last season
B. New TV deal - more national games
C. Yang

Are you the same person on here who keeps saying this? I forget I’ve explained this like 10 times. Sorry if it’s not you. That’s not how it works. The games don’t need to be nationally televised for China to see them. They can just get our feed every game and see their boy.

The Yang factor isn't exclusive to China TV - there's more Chinese Americans than any Asian ethnicity in the US. Yang got a prime sportscenter interview on ESPN.

Yes but 11 am in China

It will be 12 Noon in China for the 8 pm games which all are scheduled after the end of daylight saving time (November 2nd).

Right now Portland is 9 hours ahead of Beijing on the clock, which will change to Portland being 8 hours ahead on the clock on November 2nd. 8pm minus 8 hours is noon. (That's an easier way for me to calculate the time.)

Also seeing many 3pm Sunday games. Personally like the early start.

Will see how popular the 8pm games are. Some might like the extra time to have dinner or less traffic later in the day.

Supposed to eat at the moda with the plethora of inexpensive choices!!!

I see alot of taco bell drive throughs during the commute to the games now.

That sucks. Obviously i have no clue about the negotiations, but why cant they broadcast nationally but keep the local broadcast crew?
Seems like a great opportunity to show the nation the diversity of local broadcasts.

Actually Portland is 9 hours BEHIND China. Date line is involved here. So if you look it up you will be told China is 15 hours ahead of Portland.

I thought you usually get picked up by a one of the broadcasting companies during the playoffs?

love to see genuine support from one blazer fan to another. Though I thought he only works for the vacations and concerts and stuff, and his wife takes care of the necessities

Whenever TNT was broadcasting the games, I’d work for them….so that was great. I don’t really have many contacts with these new networks to be honest….so we will see how it goes. I’m REALLY trying to get on the WNBA broadcasts. That would be a big time game changer for me and my family.

The factors are instead of only 2 networks broadcasting nationally there are now what……5. Instead of national game 2 days a week there are literally national games 7 days a weeek.

You are really caught up on this, which is fine, but that’s not how it works man. Games don’t need to be national to be seen. League Pass has every one of our games. They are already INTERNATIONAL. We didn’t get more national games BECAUSE of this kid, it’s because the networks are NEEDING west coast games to fill all the holes they have created…. Instead of 4 or 6 national games a week, they now need to air at least 14! And I can promise you they are working a deal out where China is purchasing a feed of our broadcast to shoot back home. Not any national feed….the BLAZERS small regional feed. That’s what they did for the Rockets and Yao. It’s normal process for international stars. Germany did it with Dallas’ feed for years.

I think we are BEHIND them 14 hours. I might be wrong.It’s already Monday there right? I know when I was working in Tokyo, my kids would joke that I was in the future.

Yes, TNT. And for years we did OUR 1st round, then I would head out with them. But now, it’s crazy. People that are the best in the biz who have been working games for decades are kinda hanging.not sure if they will work games anymore. NBC has NBC guys…..a lot of nervous people in my industry right now.

Me, I’m hoping to get the FIRE games, so I could just transition into that and not have to travel in the summer anymore. That would be my dream situation.
