Why does ABC have NBA games again?

[K-Apps]

NBA Television Schedule, National Basketball Association Television Schedule - ESPN
, these dudes are only 15 regular season games next year . NBC used to at least have 3x or 4x as many regular season games aired even teams like the Raptors and Hornets were featured. Seems like ESPN only have the games if ABC only that few games, plus 3 or 4 playoffs games and then the Finals.

You don't have cable?

ABC kinda wants that game of the week feel. When ESPN /ABC got the NBA, it was mostly for ESPN to eat while ABC got Christmas and the Finals.

The NBC style won't come back unless you cop League Pass (sorry jplaya, but stop being cheap)

ABC got the most money right now. They keep winning the bid.

If NBC had the rights best believe NBC Sports would be getting most of the games.

Nostalgia is clouding your memory a bit. NBC didnt start regularly having games until after the Superbowl was over, and near the All-Star break....and they had the same damn teams nearly every week. Knicks, Bulls, Suns, Jazz, Spurs. I never saw the Raptors on NBC, nor the Hornets unless it was a 1st rd playoff game.
