I don't think that we'll get NBATV games in HD this season. NBATV-HD is becoming a full time channel, and I suspect that they won't give the HD feed to E* anymore.
Here is a hint (posted on a similar thread at another forum):

NBA Wants To Renew TV Contracts Three Years Early

Although its contracts with Disney's ABC and ESPN and Turner Broadcasting's TNT don't expire until 2008, National Basketball Association Commissioner David Stern said Sunday that it plans to begin negotiations to extend them as soon as next month. The ABC/ESPN contracts net the NBA $2.4 billion; the TNT, $2.2 billion. Stern and Turner Sports President David Levy also announced that Turner would distribute the NBA's own high-definition cable network through its sibling Time Warner Cable.

Just because NBA-TV will be broadcasting full time doesnt mean dish has to offer it full time.

Take NFL Network for example, they broadcast fulltime, but dish only shows their HD programming, I think NBA-TV will be similar

I agree. But today is the 1st HD game and nothing on the EPG. Bad sign Has someone call E* to check???

Confused to what you mean I may be reading it wrong BUT the NFL does NOT transmit HD channel all the time.

Only wed and thur they have one hour show each nite plus I think a half hour hd show before those two hour shows(we dont get from DISH) but again only thing NFL has is wed/thur hd broadcast not full time that I know of.

well lets all call at 6:01 Central if no HD game

Nope, the NFL sends out their signal 24/7 You're confusing simply sending a signal with their being HD content on it. The rest of the time NFL network is SD programing with grey sidebars and an NHLHD logo in the top right, several cable companies carry the channel like this 24/7

Well, I just checked the inHD website and no NBA game scheduled for today. In fact they don't mention NBATV anymore on the Sports section. Like E*, last year inHD also got the NBATV HD feed. Again another "bad sign".

I think it's because it's only preseason and nothing most people don't care

Today I noticed at nbatv.com under schedules for NBA HD, NO games are now listed,yestterday they had the whole season HD games listed.
Not sure what that means.

I suspect that initially they listed more games than they intended so now they're fixing the list to re-post it.
