    KTXH...network TV, far more locally televised than FSN.

    Even those without cable will be able to see this one on TV.

    Well, I see the one you are talking about now. I mixed the dates. That's rather odd indeed.

    It does not say it will be on KTXH yet. Looks like originally it was suppose to be on ABC.

    From the Spurs site:

    Wonder why they took it off the ABC line up, big game with 2 teams playing for playoff seeding

    Because the Spurs are boring and Dwayne Wade is the NBA poster child

    How does ABC/ESPN drop THIS game and still force us to watch freaking Detroit every goddamned weekend? I hate BSPN so much.

    Seriously. Weren't the 2007 Finals the least watched Finals in NBA history? Then again, this weekend they showed Spurs vs Suns. Rockets + Spurs = boring?

    I'm glad, ABC means we have to hear Mark Jackson and JVG's cheesy jokes, Mike Breen getting dissed, JVG rambling on about how he still loves the Rockets (it's okay for one game like during the 22 game winning streak last year, but not all the freaking time), JVG and Mark Jackson's bickering about everything the other person says etc.

    + it's a high potential loss like the game last year, so it saves us from getting embarrased on national TV. Somehow we never play good in San Antonio; last year we lost both games and between the last reg season game in 96-97 and the first away game in 06-07 we had not win in San Antonio, that's a 10 year drought !! We have won only twice there in the last 12 years !!

    you're right. spurs are boring. and we don't have that flashy player.

    and wade is TEARING IT UP.

    you want to be on TV nowadays, either you gotta win championships or have flashy wing players. that's why lakers, cavs, and even the damn heat are on TV so damn often.
