Knicks · Game Thread: London is calling and Knicks are playing the Wiz! (3pm game!) (page 1)

Knicks1248 learns about time change. 3pm start on TV is due to 5 hour time difference.
He had posted that he was dismayed at the lack of respect the knicks got for the game to be broadcasted at 3pm. Never owned up to this mistake. Its why I'm petty and repeating it. Arrogance has its limits. Mine does not.
Enes scared to James Bond can't keep him safe.
Mitchell might return. Markief will mess with him.
Frank has 50 friends in audience. He is taking it to the rim. Markief awaits him.
Pray for Frank. Pray for Mitchell.
Scott Brooks has 2 more seasons after this one on his contract. What a mess. John Wall is out.
They might have a chance.

To London basketball fans: “I get it, you want real basketball, and I want real cheerleaders!” BigdaddyG told UK fans, according to a source.

Two of the 6 worst teams in the NBA.

Why don't they send good teams?

.... Wizards should have been good and NY Knicks have a huge international team.

Apparently the TV schedule gods knew these 2 teams were going to be trash. So the decided a middle of the day in the middle of week, is a great idea.

Could have been move to a wknd day..

If there was ever a moment I felt bad about naming you "Rainman" it remains no more.
its one thing to be amiss on facts. Its another to be arrogant about it.

First does the NBATV premier TV schedule broadcast on weekends. No.
Is this game for the US market or the euro market? I'd guess not US market.
Also consider Euro markets TV sports watching habits. Are premier soccer broadcasted on Thursday nights?
Or weekends.
Selling tickets. If competing with other sports, which night works best?
Then there is this:

This shows that there are something called time zones. If your an adult, you should know this.
England is in a place call Europe. It is far away. Since the planet is round and the earth rotates around the sun its sometimes day time in one place, and night time in another. Thus they make something called time zones to compensate for that. London is in a place called England and its in Europe. its far away. It is Five hours ahead. SO the Game starts there at 8pm. Here its 3pm. 8 minus 5 equals 3.
Thus you are not being disrespected because of the time of the game. You are being disrespected not because your demonstrating a lack of basic knowledge appropriate for someone who can operate a computer, but the arrogance behind it.

I ran a very obnoxious campaign a few months ago that I thought would have penetrated how silly your remark was. You repeated it. Your either trolling us with some funny stuff or your in need of further instruction. Here is a book I think matches what you have demonstrated to be a reading level for you:

I think Nalod responded to you best. You are seriously dense. Do you think ANY CROWD would go to watch Knicks games in Europe if it was not held in the middle of the day for eastern time zone? I cant believe this has to be explained multiple times...London is 5 hours ahead of us in Eastern time zone.
Lets say the game was held at 8 pm ET. Who is coming to watch the games in London at 1 am ET?

At present, the game is set to be broadcast live in 215 countries. If it was being broadcast at 1 am their time, which advertisers would pay for that, when no one is even watching it on TV, much less in person???
