So...how does that impact those watching the Hawks in Columbus, Georgia on Bally?

So those of us who are outside of ATL can't see the game tonight?

Looks like it's a bootleg stream . . . watching the Pacers broadcast for me.

I can't even find the link to stream it......  Where are ya'll watching it at?

[Wretch]

Oh well...

Gonna try rolling the dice on a scummy pirate link I guess. Since the only relevant Hawks fans are those living in ATL...  Why do I even pay for this Bally Sharts App

[Hawkmoor]

Bally said the Hawks weren't worth paying?

Can't believe it, I'm watching the Hawks on YoutubeTV for the first time in like 4 years lol.  Hopefully they continue this.

[AtLaS]

Edit, didn't realize that Bally wasn't also showing the game or that out of towners can't watch.  That's no good.  I'm assuming league pass would still carry the game though?  

The whole agreement for this was WITH Bally Sports so that's weird.

 

"The games were made available for local over-the-air distribution as part of the NBA’s agreement with Diamond Sports Group, the owner of Bally Sports Southeast. Peachtree TV will utilize the Bally Sports Southeast production team and the on-air crew of Hall of Famer Dominique Wilkins, play-by-play announcer Bob Rathbun and courtside reporter Tabitha Turner for this 10-game package of games. On-air talent from Peachtree TV and WANF (Atlanta News First), including Sports Director Baillie Burmaster, will also be featured on telecasts."

I don't think Bally will be broadcasting Hawks' games next season.

I was notified of this today.  Not sure of the accuracy on this, but interesting if true.

When does this start?

They haven't released that info yet, but we should find out soon.  It seems this is legitimate.

They got to get this mess sorted.  The bad part is Bally hasn't been forced to be transparent with their issues.  You don't know what channel games are being televised on from moment to moment.  Peachtree tv, NBA league pass, Bally, now Amazon Prime gonna be in the mix.  To make matters even worst, I've been forced to get Bally Sports Plus to watch the games and not all the games are on that subscription service.

IIRC - only the Friday games are on Peachtree TV. 

The NBA league pass games should be from the original schedule, I think.

When are the Amazon Prime games scheduled to start? I checked 2 weeks ago, but said game was blacked out.

The Amazon games start next season.  As far as this season goes I wasn’t aware the Friday games were moved to Peachtree TV. Thanks.

It keeps getting worse.

If this is the case, Bally needs to broadcast ALL of their games on Peachtree TV. I had a feeling they were testing the waters by using Peachtree TV for some Friday games last season. I was able to watch those games in HD via an antenna. Bally Sports and TNT for Hawks games are the only reasons I haven't ditched Xfinity for a streaming service yet.

I guess it's twitter updates  (which I do usually) and the radio.
