This week and next aren't exactly the pick of the crop. Warriors/Mavericks this Thursday followed by Celtics/Pistons on Saturday (would be better if the Pistons weren't struggling) then next Thursday it's Cavs/Knicks and next Saturday it will be Warriors/Suns. If they're all competitive games it won't be too bad and there's always the possibility that we'll have the spectacle of LeBron pouring in 50+ against the Knicks. To be fair though, there aren't too many matches on those days I'd desperately rather see and the other half of the doubleheaders that won't be shown the next two Saturdays don't strike me as being significantly more interesting either.

At least Monta Ellis is back from injury. GSW is an improved team with him on the court. Also Shaq's games now days are getting interesting as he claims he's never felt this good in a few years. Apparently he's got this new medical crew for him which is working out great for him. I look forward to see them playing well and getting some Ws for their teams. The Suns should at least make a playoff this year or it'll suck big time.

True, there's something to be interested in and I certainly plan on watching the games.

BIG NEWS FELLAS!The NBA on Ten HD is starting this Monday before the Super Bowl!
First game is the ABC clash between Cleveland and Detroit @ 6:30 AM. Wooo!
Full Schedule for ESPN and Ten HD (NetTen (One) ) until the playoffs here:
http://www.nba.com/schedules/internatio ... edule.htmlWe get the ABC game every Monday morning and a TNT game every Friday afternoon starting with LA @ Boston this Friday at 12:00pm. Even better is the fact that they're showing all of the double headers from March 13
No Nuggets games for the rest of the year on ESPN, but luckily 2 on Ten HD.
I'm Pumped- i dont know how the Monday morning game will suit you guys, but there's replays at night like with ESPN, but a little later... Dones't matter for me with Foxtel IQ HD, i'll be recording the full thing in HD ready to go when i get home.
Sun Feb 01, 2009 12:15 am
HOLY FUCK. JUST ARGHHHHHHH! AWESOME NEWS.
Is Ten HD on Foxtel IQ?
Fuck it, i'll wake up. WOOOOOOOOOOOO. BOOFUCKINYAH!
Sun Feb 01, 2009 7:51 am

Nope, you have to get Foxtel IQ2 HD but if you just go from Foxtel IQ to Foxtel IQ2 HD and dont change any channels (like dont buy ESPN HD and Fox Sports HD) it's the exact same...
Foxtel IQ box per month= $10
Foxtel IQ2 HD box per month= $10 (includes 7 HD, 9 HD, 10 HD, SBS HD, ABC HD)
Only thing is the installation fee, but we got half price on ours, i'm sure you could get a deal...
Overall for us it's $10 more for us cause we got the HD Sports package too, which is $10 a month...
Sun Feb 01, 2009 9:42 am
yeah, ive got iq2. I just wasnt sure if it was gonna be on there or not.
I just came a bit.
Sun Feb 01, 2009 10:53 am
Wow awesome news, and already some Nuggets games look like channel 10 became my new favourite channel. I'm so glad they decided to broadcast a bit earlier rather than startin in April.
Sun Feb 01, 2009 11:13 am
Simply fantastic news. Thanks Scotty.
Sun Feb 01, 2009 6:01 pm
10HD are showing cavs vs pistons monday at 6:30am and celtics vs lakers on friday at midday.
Sun Feb 01, 2009 6:50 pm
Thank God For Channel 10!

Man oh man, how long have we been waiting for this. Here's hoping they can keep this going for a few years atleast this time. Every double header, amazing stuff!
I'll be waking up for this in the spirit of things

one question, i just checked my the hd guide on the tele and it shows HD demonstration up until the superbowl. Maybe they have got to update it still? I'm fucking hoping this new deal isn't something Queensland miss out on, christ wouldn't that be a tease.

Nope well don't know about North QLD/regional areas but Brisbane is getting it
Sun Feb 01, 2009 11:55 pm
It probably just hasn't been updated yet. My local listings claim it'll be on tomorrow morning. We'll know in less than six hours.
Mon Feb 02, 2009 12:03 am
6:30 AM for Queenslanders

Oh right!

I might stay up for the replay though at 11 pm after I watch Superbowl replay... saves me waking up early.
Mon Feb 02, 2009 12:06 am
Could be 5:30 Brisbane time since you guys don't observe daylight saving and it's listed as being 6:30 Sydney DST.
Mon Feb 02, 2009 12:20 am
Yeah, that's true actually because I forgot my phone lists times at DST.
5:30 am, no deal.

At least it means the replay is at 10 pm.
Mon Feb 02, 2009 12:26 am
Yes, I can see the replays being very handy for most much as they are with Foxtel.
Mon Feb 02, 2009 6:04 am
Doesn't seem to be available in Newcastle as yet, despite what the local TV guide maintains.
Mon Feb 02, 2009 6:47 am
Yeah, i don't have it either in Townsville

If it were 5:30 i'm sure it would still be on, hmm. Seriously going to blow if we don't get these games but ah well, we'll see.
Mon Feb 02, 2009 7:33 am
For what it's worth, i get Ten Southern Cross HD, which i assume is just for like Cairns, Townsville, Mackay and shit. We still have the superbowl scheduled but yeah, no nba. We just have that annoying promo loop showing Australian landscape 24/7. Hopefully we get to see some of these games this year...
Mon Feb 02, 2009 8:35 am
We get Southern Cross Ten here in Newcastle too.
Mon Feb 02, 2009 10:51 am
well wadaya know, no superbowl either
Mon Feb 02, 2009 1:52 pm
I caught the game it was on over here (perth) at 6.30am i dunno if it was live or not but still good to watch it on free to air tv. I look forward to fridays broadcast should be a lot more entertaining than todays game.
