    Yeah, seemed like a logical inclusion. Honestly surprised it wasn't.

    In the past games on ESPN have been blacked out forcing you to watch on FSN. I wonder how this works since CSN isn't available? I hope we get to see these games!

    The game does get blacked out, but (if I remember correctly), I taped one of the NBATV games on replay around 2AM, and it did not black that one out. I know its not live, but a lot of us are starved to see the Rockets, so a 5 hour tape delay is better than nothing.

    Im pretty sure it will get blacked out. A few weeks ago the UT game was blacked out on ESPN, because of Longhorn Network, when I tried to watch it. I didnt think they were aloud to do that. Maybe im wrong, though. We will just have to wait and see.

    This has never been the case, at least for me it hasn't. It will not be blacked out.

    Hubie brown is really great and u can learn a lot of things from his analysis. Rondo is one of my favorite PG.

    Well, they got 3 more weeks to learn to play together better so they don't look bad on national tv.

    These games will be blacked out. Any time the local channel is showing the game then you get black outs on ESPN.

    From what I recall, it was TNT/TBS that was blacked out, but this was during the CBA from before the first lockout. You had to watch it on your teams local broadcast. I think the reason was to protect your teams local ads or something like that.

    Angry asian fans want more national TV?

    Or was it because of all the Hardening fans?
