    Live!

    But if I had to choose, I'd be going back and forth. I love our crew, but I also like listening to JVG.

    For DirecTv, My20 has always had an HD channel and all of the previous games on My20 that have been HD-capable have been in HD, so I'm not surprised they're advertising it.

    I will be at my bros watching it in HD. I would watch local if I was at home though. I don't care about national broadcasters at all.

    My routine is typically to watch the national broadcast unless we start losing, then I go back to the familiar for superstitous reasons.

    Dish Network and Comcast do not have channel 20 in HD.

    Watching it live! ;)

    Plus, I won't get a choice in Dallas. I'm not sure if I'll get the option of a local broadcast on NBALP.

    JVG is interesting, but Bill has been outstanding during the streak.

    Wish I had the choice.

    I get to listen to Bill and Matt all season long... It's nice to hear what other people think, too.

    Because of Clyde, it's a no brainer to choose the national guys.

    The only availability live for me is ABC. I will watch Bill and Bull in the "replay" after I download it.

    jvg >>> clyde

    but, as always, i'll be switching channels all the time. i've been doing this for like ever - i will start w/ a national channel because they give me different perspectives once in a while; but when we start to trail then i flip to local; when we trail again then i flip again... back and forth. other wise i'll stick to national.

    I don't think Clyde will be working sunday's game. He said something about going on spring break. So it'll be Matt and Bill.

    they're going to broadcast the game on 97.5? does the nba not have a no compete clause? i know for instance, in dallas, you won't get the national radio broadcast because it's the local team. (though that may be because it's the nfl and not the nba??)


    i'll probably switch back and forth between my20 and abc.
