NBA.com lies about broadband availability

 From the CBW:

July 6, 2007
NBA.com LIES about broadband availability of Summer League games.
This past week, NBA.com stated that all Summer League games would be 
available via webcast on NBA.com.

Well, that turned out to be a LIE.

I went to NBA.com and tried to log in and watch the Celtics play 
Portland, and was told the game was blacked out in my area.  I don't 
live in Boston.  I don't live in Portland.  There's no national 
broadcast of this game.  Nowhere did they say it was subject to any 
blackout to begin with.  So why was it blacked out?

Because the NBA LIED when they said the games would be available on 
their site.

So I'll have to hope they weren't also lying when they said they 
would broadcast a tape delay of the game tomorrow on NBAtv.

But I now expect they'll LIE about that, too.

They owe every fan who wasn't able to log in and see the game an 
apology, and then some...like a copy of the Celtics DVD set (Portland 
fans already GOT what they wanted).  But they're probably too busy 
thinking up new things to say just to get people to their site, then 
not do what they promised.

Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics

Looks like NBA.com has all three covered.
