Why are the NBA playoff games broadcast in a foreign language on TNT?

I'm watching the Phoenix Suns vs. the LA Clippers on TNT and it's all in Mexican. I've seen other NBA playoffs games broadcasted in Mexican too.

Update:

SAP is NOT on. I specifically checked that (thanks for the suggestion). All the other shows and channels are in English.

Update 2:

The Spanish conjugate their verbs more, pronounce words different, (esp. the 'll' sound. This is definately Mexican.

The question doesn't address the name of the language, it addresses the fact that TNT is broadcasting an event that has Mexican anouncers.

Excuse me for asking my question in American. I'm not good at proper English. (Americans have bastardized the English language more than the Mexicans have bastardized Spanish!)

Update 3:

Well, the jokes on me! The SAP was off on my TV, but I guess my daughter turned it on on the cable box. Problem fixed. First answer gets 10 points!

I don't appologize for my ability to recognize the Mexican language over Puerto Rican, Spanish, Portuguese, or Japanese. How many of you non-Latinos can do that?

Update 4:

I have to wait 24 hrs. to pick a best answer. First answer won.

    Is your SAP option on? It changes the language you hear to Spanish.

    Wow, people get mean. The same thing happened to us (we have a two year old boy). We were watching the Simpsons (only show that was doing it) and thought it was a joke, until it did it the next time. Aren't they cute?

    OH BOY

    It's not Mexican, It's being broadcast in Spanish because you have the SAP button pushed.

    I really hope you are just joking.
