Yep, the NBA is moving. It's going to be weird not seeing the NBA games on NBC anymore. I guess NBC was losing money from the NBA. Well, hopefully ABC and ESPN can help to improve the quality of broadcasting NBA games. I think NBC hasn't done a very good job with the NBA over the last few years. TNT and TBS do a great job with the games on cable.

Can't argue that NBC does a bad job; I mean, it was only last year when they realized the Milwaukee Bucks existed! Playoff Predictions: 1...Milwaukee Bucks 2...New Jersey Nets 3...Toronto Raptors 4...Boston Celtics 5...Philadelphia 76ers 6...Indiana Pacers 7...Washington Wizards 8...Orlando Magic

I suppose if it weren't for Gary Payton the same would be
said about the Sonics.

George Karl's old team! Yeah, the Sonics aren't bad. They're not a finals contender, but they're not bad. But they're management in Seattle sucks. Keep their players and let go of the management! They treated George Karl like dirt in Seattle, and that is totally unfair -- he led them to the NBA Finals and more 50+ win seasons than I can remember!
