The NBA Dribbled Out

The 2012-2013 NBA Schedule was released last night, and opening night on October 30th features a doozy of a triple-header; except, the actual first game of the entire season is Washington at Cleveland on NBA’s League Pass at 7:00 p.m. Yeah, yawn.

But the real headliners come later. At 8:00 p.m. on TNT, Boston travels to Miami where the Heat will be raising their 2012 NBA Championship banner to the rafters. After that, it’s the 2011 NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks traveling to Los Angeles to do battle with their former point guard, Steve Nash, and his new team in LA. 

Check out the full schedule here. All nationally televised games (TNT, ESPN, and ABC) are below with (in order from top to bottom: Date, Teams, Time (ET) and Network (allow some time for the network gif to load, or just go to the site)
