We got our first look at the Thunder’s path forward on Friday night, as the NBA released its full schedule for Big Brother Orlando* (starting July 30). There are two nationally-televised games that we know of. Mike Cage and his co-host will have all eight on Fox Sports Oklahoma. Prepare yourself for brunch hoops, matinees, and flexibility on August 14. Nobody wanted to commit to anything specific 48 days from right now, you know?
By the way — the NBA’s new slogan is “Brand New Game” — which is, of course, short for we’re pretty confident this will work, but Rumble might have to hold down the 4-spot in the playoffs.
Below is the full schedule of games, times, and TV stations. It’s basically the graphic above, but for people that say things like “I just need to read it.“
