NBA TV will announce key nationally broadcasted games for the 2010-21 NBA season Tuesday at 7 p.m. 
 In the past, the league would just release the schedule in a memo,  but in the age of TV specials (i.e.The Decison), everything has become  an event. So in a special program, NBA TV will reveal which teams will  be featured during ESPN and TNT's opening week coverage, as well as  Christmas Day and Martin Luther King Jr. Day matchups
One source told Starting Blocks that the Miami Heat will open the  season at The Q against the Cleveland Cavaliers. If that's true, it will  be like the Baltimore Ravens first game in Cleveland against the new  Browns.
 NBA.com will exclusively announce the full 2010-11 regular season schedule on Tuesday, Aug. 10.
