Altitude Sports Announces Broadcast Schedule For First Round Of The 2021 NBA Playoffs
DENVER—Altitude Sports will broadcast every game of the first round of the 2021 NBA Playoffs between the Denver Nuggets and Portland Trail Blazers. Coverage begins Saturday, May 22nd at 7:30 pm. Each game will feature a one-hour pre-game show, as well as the post-game show immediately following the game.
“This marks the second full season that Comcast and Dish have continued to ignore Nuggets fans by denying them access to a season full of thrilling games and award-winning broadcasts,” said Matt Hutchings, COO of KSE. “However, we are very grateful that at long last, hundreds of thousands of fans in our 10-state territory can finally share in the excitement of watching the Nuggets in the NBA playoffs on national broadcasts and Altitude’s partner carriers. The Nuggets have had an amazing season where they have demonstrated that they are championship contenders. Unfortunately, too many Nuggets fans could not watch throughout the season despite subscribing to Comcast and Dish. We are singularly focused on getting the Nuggets back on the air again next season through fair, market-based terms. Unlike Comcast and Dish, Altitude Sports will continue to put Nuggets fans first.”
Altitude Sports will continue to seek a resolution with both Comcast and DISH Network to carry Altitude Sports. Altitude will not stop fighting for our fans. What Comcast and DISH Network wants from us is a deal that would put Altitude out of business and raise prices on our fans – and we won’t stand for it. If you would like to speak with Comcast directly, they can be reached at 1-833-253-3725 and DISH Network 1-844-553-3725. At this time, you can find Altitude Sports available on DIRECTV, AT&T TV, Charter Communications , and other cable providers in a 10-state region that includes Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Nevada, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Utah.
