NBA League Pass & Direct TV 2002-2003

[Hoosier]

Can anyone confirm if Direct TV will still be offering NBA League Pass for the 2002-2003 season? I called my local and they said yes..but not confirmed? I know the NBA made some changes to their broadcasting from NBC to CBS..more games on ESPN ect..does anyone remember the details of the these broadcasting changes?? I would appreciate any info..Thanks:)

I believe I can answer part of my question: ESPN,ESPN2 & ABC will be broadcasting NBA games..but still not sure about NBA league Pass on Directv yet..can anyone else add any more info: I assume TNT &TBS are still involved ?? :shrug:

My guess is that the NBA League Pass will continue. Why wouldn't it? I am also wondering if the merger is approved in the fall, will Dish be able to offer it too.

Well Direct TV is billing me for NBA League pass 1st installment..so I guess its sill alive...yes it would be sweet if Dish could offer..has well...:)

For what it is worth ... charley said they are in negotiations for NBS League Pass and NBA.com. It would make alot of sense if it became available.

If E* is in negotiations for sports, don't count on it :)

This is interesting news. Did he say that on the last Charlie Chat? I wouldn't be surprised if he does sign on with the NBA. I think he might want to turn around that anti-sports rep. He's got to get more customers.
