Comcast has the rights to show Memphis Grizzlies games in Knoxville, however, Atlanta Hawks games are aired over the Grizzlies when they play on the same day, which is often. As the in-state team, the Grizzlies should have precedence over the Hawks when both teams play. In addition, by having the rights, the NBA is required to black out the Grizzlies games in the Knoxville. Therefore, even if you were to pay for the NBA League Pass package, the Grizzlies games would not be shown, leaving no options to watch their games. When taking into account the large number of Memphis transplants in Knoxville, the ardent fan support the team gets, and the general higher level of basketball on display it seems obvious that the Grizzlies would be the team that Comcast chooses to provide the city of Knoxville with. Unfortunately, they do not. Help us change this by signing our petition with your Knoxville area address.
