Great news if true.

Does that mean ing NOON because we are listed first?

[will_spurs]

Noon game so that we lose the 1st game of the playoffs as usual.

I would think Bos/Atl would be noon being on the EST but I'm not sure. I sure hope not! I can't ever remember us playing that early

[hater]

as expected Spurs will play same day/time as last year. I think it was 3pm Sunday

[LongtimeSpursFan]

Im thinking late afternoon or early evening. Bos/Atl probably noon, Dal/Lal at 2:30.

[dylankerouac]

I hope this is true. Anyone going to be recording the games? I don't think I'm going to figure out how to get it off my cable box in time for all the good games.

If true, Spurs will probably be the last game. Lakers and Clips games should both be afternooners(big market), and the other game is on the East coast, so it can't be the late one.

[DesignatedT]

Give me 6 or 8:30 plz

[sananspursfan21]

Great news if true.

Yeah i know, it would suck if the spurs missed the playoffs this year, after all they worked for

[Venti Quattro]

That 3:30 slot is for LA. 9:30 probably for the Grizzlies or Clipers

1:00 is for Boston-Atlanta, so most likely Spurs will be at 7:00.

[pookenstein]

Time doesn't matter. This is our year.

[loveforthegame]

Good news about the extra day off.

I'm thinking we'll be the last game. Boston-Atlanta, Lakers-?, Memphis-Clippers, Spurs-Utah

[Mugen]

That 3:30 slot is for LA. 9:30 probably for the Grizzlies or Clipers

1:00 is for Boston-Atlanta, so most likely Spurs will be at 7:00.

[bklynspursfan]

I would think the 7PM TNT game. If the Clips and Lakers have home court I would think having the Clips play that game would be cutting it WAY too close.

Unless they're waiting to see if Clips get home court after Memphis plays tonight

Grizz are going to have home court now so the game won't be in the west coast so it doesn't necessarily have to go to the LAC game.

[DesignatedT]

Grizz will beat Orlando tonight at home and get home court.

[hater]

agree 7/6PM it is

[Venti Quattro]

Grizz are going to have home court now so the game won't be in the west coast so it doesn't necessarily have to go to the LAC game.

you're right, I mixed it up. Memphis is further to the east than San Antonio.

so this will probably be the lineup...

10:00/1:00 Boston-Atlanta
12:30/3:30 LA-Dallas/Denver
4:00/7:00 Memphis-Clippers
6:30/9:30 San Antonio-Utah

[DesignatedT]

12- bos/atl
230- lal/den
6- sa or mem game
830- sa or mem game

[bklynspursfan]

Grizz will beat Orlando tonight at home and get home court.

I forgot Memphis was playing Orlando HC is definitely a lock for them

[DesignatedT]

Grizz are favored by 15

[TimmehC]

so this will probably be the lineup...

10:00/1:00 Boston-Atlanta
12:30/3:30 LA-Dallas/Denver
4:00/7:00 Memphis-Clippers
6:30/9:30 San Antonio-Utah

That's how I see it going down.
