2000 NBA Summer Series on CSN, NBC, & TNT/TBS Schedule

Y2K! 2000 saw the 24th season of Summer Series games being played by 29 NBA franchises. Comcast SportsNet (CSN) had= primary television rights to league telecasts for the third straight season. Plus, NBC, TNT, and TBS televised select regular-season and playoff games for the third consecutive season.

The 2000 season saw several teams get new digs. The Raptors, Clippers, Lakers, Pacers, Nuggets, Hawks, and Heat all moved into new buildings (or, in Toronto’s case, began their full-time occupancy of then-Air Canada Centre [now known as Scotiabank Arena]) 

The Toronto Raptors began play at the Air Canada Centre (now known as Scotiabank Arena) "full-time" following the team's move there the previous season. 

The Los Angeles Clippers and the Los Angeles Lakers moved in together, vacating the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena (Clippers) and the Great Western Forum (Lakers), respectively, to move into the Staples Center (now known as Crypto.com Arena). 

The Indiana Pacers moved from Market Square Arena to the Conseco Fieldhouse (now known as Gainbridge Fieldhouse). 

The Denver Nuggets moved from McNichols Sports Arena to the Pepsi Center (now known as Ball Arena). 

The Atlanta Hawks began playing at the newly built Philips Arena [now known as State Farm Arena] (after two seasons split between the Georgia Dome and Alexander Memorial Coliseum). 

The Miami Heat moved into the newly constructed American Airlines Arena (later FTX Arena and now the Kaseya Center) following more than a decade of home games at the Miami Arena. The Heat played select preseason games (two) and most regular season games (six) at the Miami Arena until the American Airlines Arena was ready to be open to the public. The Heat's first game at the American Airlines Arena was Sunday, September 10, vs. the Orlando Magic in a regular-season "Battle of the Sunshine State" game.

And also something to note, NBA's Opening Night gets moved from Friday night to Tuesday night for the first time ever (this is still the case today).
