They used to rerun some games in the afternoon on the 'Special Events' channel, 9425, but I haven't seen them for awhile.

On the NBA web site they say: "NBA TV is now in HD seven days a week. Viewers with HD capability can experience NBA TV's daily lineup, which includes: NBA games, original programming and highlights, and some of the greatest games in NBA history. Daily HD programming airs 4-6 pm ET weekdays and 10 am-12 pm ET on weekends. NBA TV's daily HD lineup is available on channel 198 for DIRECTV customers and on channel 9425 for DISH Network customers."

On the Dish site under HD they still show NBA-TV and say: "Special NBA broadcasts free to HD subscribers".

So if the NBA say's they providing them and Dish says they're showing them where did they go???

Got a response from Dish:

Thank you for your email correspondence. That has been changed to special events since the season is over.

The season was over for awhile but they were still showing games. Sure glad I got that 8PSK upgrade ;-)
