NBL.TV no longer showing Spanish ACB League?

I believe there was a misunderstanding with the rights holders. MP & Silva hold them and were promoting ACB heavily to Asia-Pacific broadcasters at the sports rights industry exhibition in Singapore last year. Promotion was along the lines of best domestic league in the world after NBA (which is correct) to build awareness. They wouldn't sell them to a minor website like NBL.TV.

Precedent has already been set as around two years ago Fox Sports announced they had acquired the rights to Serie A football. A month later they had to retract the announcement as MP & Silva were the rights holders, not the company Fox was dealing with. MP & Silva are in bed with beIN Sports btw.

So it seems like another mess up.

Could the rights have changed, meaning they couldn't re-broadcast the finals?

The grapevine tells me Malcolm Heard passed away recently. Can anyone confirm? I'll happily stand corrected. One of my first coaches and someone I proudly call a friend to this day.
