P.S. I’m not the first and won’t be the last to mention/notice this, but this unexpectedly spread-out series schedule seems like it might favor a certain team with old legs.
What’s up with the 11:00 am start time. Doesn’t that seem ridiculously early? And I’ve got church!
You have my permission to miss church. The game tips off in San Antonio, so it will be noon there. The NBA has a full slate that day, so it has to start early to maximize eyeballs on TV sets.
Dude is an idiot. Every year the first round is spread out. It has been that way for years.Jazz had no chance to begin with
Except this ISN’T every year because of the lockout. Plus, it was Commish Stern who said the series would be more compressed than usual.
That’s what DVR’s are for!
