What happens

Television broadcasts of the National Basketball Association (NBA) games were first broadcast by American broadcast network ABC from January 3, 1965 to May 10, 1973. Broadcasts returned on December 25, 2002, this time utilizing the NBA on ABC branding. After the ABC Sports division was merged into ESPN by parent company Disney in 2006, the said branding was rarely used. ABC's regular season schedule includes Christmas Day games; NBA Saturday Primetime games on selected weekends from December or January to March; and NBA Sunday Showcase games on selected afternoons from February to March. ABC then airs selected games during the first five weeks of the NBA playoffs and is the exclusive broadcaster of the NBA Finals. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
