Either late late tonight or tomorrow morning.

I'd think that we'll know the dates that each first round series starts within a few minutes of the late games ending tonight. And I'd think that the league would just announce the full schedules at the same time.

Probably tonight after the games.

If I were a betting man, I'd bet the Spurs will play on Saturday unless they draw Portland and then it might be Sunday. Lakers/Jazz will be on Sunday as well.

I don't think ABC does Saturday games this early do they?

I dunno but I'm guessing CLE/DET will be first game of the Sunday double header followed by Jazz/Lakers.

Lakers/Jazz will be on Sunday as well.

You could write in blood that the Lakers will have the prime spot every Sunday for as long as they're alive. They could be the 8 seed and that would still be true.

Sometimes I think the same thing could be true if the Lakers ended up with the 9th seed, too.

I'm chomping at the bit to know also. I have plans for Saturday (mainly night but could get to the AT&T for a noon tip) if they get home court and will be out of town for games 3 and 4 probably if they lose home court... so I'm pretty anxious to figure out what games I might even be able to make.

I remember last year the schedule was online when I woke up at 5am the next morning - so I'd imagine it'll be within an hour or two of the Portland finish.

My guess would be noon game on sunday. Probably Lakers or Cavs after that.
