Does TNT show their games online like ESPN?

Kind of. They have this thing on nba.com where they show you the game through four different camera angles. I'm not sure if you can focus on one though.

Yeah, goto NBA.Com and the TNT OT link should be there around gametime. It's not like a regular stream of the games with a broadcast view seen on tv. It's got four camera angles with two of them following a specific player from each team and the other two from different angles like one from behind the backboard and another. Not the greatest, but stats are available for each team and player right there the whole time lol.

They don't do it for every game though.

Have they been doing it for the West Conf. Finals?

I'm pretty sure they've done it for every game of the Conf. Finals so far. I know they did it for game 2 and I'm almost positive I saw the link for it before game 3 when I was on NBA.com that day.

Not sure if they'll have it for tonight's game. They usually have a poll in the NBA front page voting for the two players for the player cam the day of the game. I don't see anything up right now.

How many college teams that played zone have won the NCAA title?...I can only think of the orangemen.

Admittedly, not a lot of teams at the D1 level. If you want you can scoff about this not being legitimate, I don't care, but I go to school at Wayne State College in Nebraska. Our women's head coach employs a 2-3 match-up zone 98% of the time and has already won a ring with it at the D3 level (his teams only lost like four games in his last five seasons), and he has the pieces in place to win another one at my school which is D2.


I don't say that as a claim to fame like "HEY MY COACH IS SO GUD AND HE RUNS ZONE ITS AWESOME!". While I might not be a guru in regards to basketball, I'm certainly no idiot, and his defenses, once the players learn it, are unbelievably stifling. I've never seen anything like it. The best part about it is that it's entirely flexible, and he can counter any kind of schemes that the opposing team goes to trying to take advantage of the zone. Like I said, you can discredit it because it's a small school, or it's women, or whatever I don't care, but I've been prodding his brain asking questions about it, and also playing against it in practice over the last two years and it's totally changed the way I look at how defense is played.

Damn.. that would've helped Frye's confidence a lot; gettin off on a good start. Guess he's still cold.

Re: Western Conference Finals: Phoenix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers

Why is Frye not in the D-League...

Re: Western Conference Finals: Phoenix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers

They're picking it apart just like I figured they would. Now go back to man so Kobe can get going. If not, keep hitting the high post and find the rover down low. Simple zone busters, guys. Let's go!
