In defence of the NBL's current TV deal

The scheduling of games really needs to be looked at. There shouldn't be any other games on at the same time as the ones being broadcast on FTA. They need to funnel the audience towards the FTA games to help push the ratings up which will help the NBL to negotiate a better deal once the current contract expires.
Not sure 9:30 games on Friday are a good idea either considering a huge chunk of the Melbourne audience is out at junior rep games.
It's great to have the games on FTA, it just needs a little tweaking to maximize it's effectiveness. Being on Ten though is probably the worst of the 3 main stations, they get smashed in the ratings by 9 & 7 every week.
