Crabcake Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2788191-ice-cube-says-ea-2k-sports-interested-in-big-3-video-game?share=other This could be interesting and potentially fun, under certain circumstances. I’ve never watched a BIG3 game but the concept seems interesting. From a purely video game perspective, if this is a $20ish fun little game that isn’t trying to be a AAA 2K clone, I’d try it. Imo it could also work as a game mode or addition to 2K or Live, although I’m sure EA or 2K would make it a ridiculously overpriced DLC.

A live Friday night timeslot hasn't helped. Some of the nights on big FOX with 5pm starts were jettisoned to another FOX affiliated channel on the west coast.

dfwabel Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Well, they will have some major changes for this season. 1- Add four more teams will be added, to make 12 2- Will look to play twice a week, and in 18 cities. Last year, they played weekly in just 12 cities. 3- Lisa Leslie will coach a team. Her team will be the "Triplets". The other three team names are TBA. 4- The age minimum of 30 has been lowered to 27. They will not return FS1/FOX but have yet to name a media partner.

It's during the summer when they need the extra options to fill slots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice Cube is looking to partner with Viacom, along with Alex&Ani founder Carolyn Rafaelian to purchase some or all of the ESPN RSNs. I'd think a Viacom cable channel, like Paramount Network, first, maybe even Nickelodeon to attract kids as in a simulcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a very low bid according to CNBC. The CCSLC's resident Geelong Cats fan. Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends. Sounds like something from a Rocky & Bullwinkle story arc.

4_tattoos Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 With WWE Smackdown moving to Fox, I could see USA Network taking a chance with BIG3 now that it has a proven fan base. In addition to that being under the Universal umbrella could open up the door for NBC and/or NBCSN to air some games. Just a thought.

4_tattoos Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Lowering the league's minimum age to 27 was likely done due to expanding by 4 more teams. There's only so many 30 and up former NBA players out there. Got to open up the talent pool a little. Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
