Why no USA Basketball on TV?

Question

What are the lame excuses for snubbing USA basketball?

Answer 1

because is against the law

Answer 2

do you mean on british television? if so its probably because very very few people are interested in basketball in the UK.

if you mean american television then i really have no idea.

Answer 3

they should it out here in California.  Usually 5 in the morning on USA network.

Answer 4

Actually they showed it at 1:30 in the morning on sunday...

Answer 5

Really if you are talking about in the US it wasn't replayed in primetime on USA or MSNBC or anything? Even here in Canada it was replayed on TSN (Canadian version of ESPN) at 6:30pm ET.

It was on NBC at 2:30am ET though live nationwide.

You've got to make your question more clear, like where you live. Instead of making everyone guess you are American because you didn't put where you live because "Everyone knows you're American" anyway.

Answer 6

It WAS on television.  If fact they showed the gold medal game live, as they did a lot of their other games.
