Game Schedule

I was wondering why the nba wasn't programing more games in the afternoon so here in europe we could watch in the evening.
The whole marketing thing is towards europe now and they only do that on sunday
I think during the season they could program a lot more than that there are several games each night so they could pick one...and for the playoffs do that on week-ends.

Good question, too bad we won't get an answer.

The game will be at 5 I thinks, then to go to school at 7.something again.

Because more people in the USA care. The NBA has a bigger audience in the USA than anywhere else, and American fans need to be able to see the games.

That's why i said they could pick "one game" every night during the season and for the playoffs on the "week-end's".

if we have games at lets say 3pm EST, not many in the USA will be watching it since 3pm EST is 12pm PST which means lots of children are still in school through the US and people are still working. from 9 to 5pm anywhere in the usa is considered business hours and those business people contain many nba fans. People at work+ kids at school= not many at the game= empty seats= no money

to think even the audience in the east coast were complaining with the game sched of wester games coz they have to watch it til midnight.
well here in manila we watch the live telexast at 8 a.m so the only problem is waking up early.
