Suns News: Week 15 (1/24 to 1/30)
Re: Suns News: Week 15 (1/24 to 1/30)
That McGee story might be strumming up controversy for clicks... but I was thinking how people talk about conditioning being a big part of a pro athlete's game and how specifically Ayton and McGee are affected by longer layoffs, while Biyombo came in cold off the streets and immediately started playing 25+ mpg. I guess everyone is built differently.
Is Justin Jackson still on the roster?

No Jackson didn’t have his 10 day renewed

I was listening to a BSotS podcast yesterday and they mentioned our TV viewership numbers are lower then our very bad years of terrible play on the court since the move to Bally Sports. What a shame. Some of the all time best Suns basketball and so many fans are missing out. During the pandemic of all times.

Bally Sports may have shot themselves in the foot by pricing themselves off of the streaming services, and now they're having some problems lining up baseball teams for their own proposed service.AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 9:32 pmI was listening to a BSotS podcast yesterday and they mentioned our TV viewership numbers are lower then our very bad years of terrible play on the court since the move to Bally Sports.

Hard to sell a year-long package without major league baseball to fill the summer nights.

I pay for streams through someone else for $20 a month in the not legal space because a viable option doesn't exist. Bally Sports isn't a part of YouTube TV (which I pay for with Hulu, Netflix and Prime) and I cut the cord a long time ago. I'd pay for NBA League Pass if they didn't have local blackouts. It had zero to do with cost and me not wanting to pay to watch the Suns. The options suck. So many young fans are missing out on all time prime Suns basketball.The Bobster wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 9:36 pmBally Sports may have shot themselves in the foot by pricing themselves off of the streaming services, and now they're having some problems lining up baseball teams for their own proposed service.AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 9:32 pmI was listening to a BSotS podcast yesterday and they mentioned our TV viewership numbers are lower then our very bad years of terrible play on the court since the move to Bally Sports.

Streaming games on my computer at work is a no go too. Even though I can in my phone. It says I can only watch on my computer if I’m on my home WiFi network. I don’t get it.AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 9:43 pmI pay for streams through someone else for $20 a month in the not legal space because a viable option doesn't exist.

Bally Sports is still on DirecTV Stream, but only if you pay for the $85/month package.

They're losing out on the young kids and capturing their loyalty.

When I tried to sign up recently, they also wanted me to play for a box for over $400 too. I told them to stick it.

Great news on the James Jones extension. He's one of the best to do it right now and I've always feared he'd bolt out of town for a better deal at an organization with a more financially flexible owner. (also an owner who isn't a jackass)
I first came across the 7SOL as 5MOL last week. I get the tendency to keep the 7-7 connection for meme's sake, but it really is 5MOL if we're paying attention to the games.

Jones totally earned that extension. Good for him.

Speak of the devil. Go figure. James Jones is extended, which is great news, and ESPN decides to post this article at the same time:
https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/331 ... estigation
Can't let the world forget about the Sarver disfunction, right ESPN?

I ended up getting Apollo Group for $160 a year and get all of the games alone with just about anything else you would want to watch. The interesting thing is that local broadcasts don't have commercials, it shows the live stuff you would usually see at home games. I really enjoy it and it makes me feel more like I'm there.
You can also chose if you are watching the AZ broadcast or the other market we are playing. The homers are strong and very comical but I still prefer listening to our broadcast.
