I genuinely couldn’t believe it, they cut off suddenly and started playing right as when Dame was shooting a free throw with a little over 8 minutes left, felt like someone at the station forgot the game was on, freaked and flipped the switch. Insane.

    They did this with the Hawks game yesterday too during the In Season tournament. There was a coach’s challenge or something at the end of the quarter, but they chose to run an ad segment instead of showing the free throw and then the final shot which was ridiculous.

    Last year instead of the final Magic/Heat game of the regular season, Bally Sports FL played a rerun of an old Serena Williams match. I get the game was at like 1PM which is a weird time, but come on.

    Not surprised when I hear this BS any more.

      Poker nerds lol. I mean, it’s just like anything. If you’re a fan of something you’re gonna absorb content related about it. As a poker player, I don’t really go out of my way to watch it on tv, but I will watch poker streams from the hustler or the WSOP when it comes around. Helps ur game watching good players play and see different hand situations. It’s a whole world of characters, just like people have their fav NBA players ppl have their favorite poker players

      I enjoy watching poker. Do I purposely go out of my way to turn on poker, no. But when it’s on, it’s enjoyable.

    You didn’t miss much. Just Luka doing Luka things. Giannis with a smug after a dunk and a great block.

      When Minnesota United matches were still being broadcast by bally, once they showed some old dudes fishing for the entire first half of a match. What a shambolic product.
