You know, I was just thinking. The Suns might be the one team that Stern hates more than the Blazers. Remember that screw job with aware getting suspended for game 7 against SA?
Game 2 Tue April 20 Milwaukee at Atlanta 7:00PM NBATV It's because our two games during the week are right up against the Lakers.
Phoenix and Portland are smaller markets. Their metropolitan area is bigger than ours, but no one lives in the desert, so their region and ours are equally depopulated wilderneses.
WTF??? They just showed the series schedule on comcast and had game 1 as being on Saturday!!!!! Are they just late to the party? Maybe its a rerun and Im late to the party.
If it means anything, I did the ESPN playoff predictor and I did the Hollinger brackets! We lost to the Magic in the Finals.
I'v playd the thing at least 1700 times and gotten the blazers to win the thing once and gotten to the WCF a ton but 9% to beat the lakers sucks.
Update: Phoenix vs. Portland Game 1 - Sun April 18 Portland at Phoenix 7:30PM TNT / KGW Game 2 - Tue April 20 Portland at Phoenix 7:00PM NBATV / KGW Game 3 - Thu April 22 Phoenix at Portland 7:00PM NBATV / KGW Game 4 - Sat April 24 Phoenix at Portland 1:30PM TNT / KGW Game 5 * Mon April 26 Portland at Phoenix TBD TBD / KGW Game 6 * Thu April 29 Phoenix at Portland TBD TBD / KGW Game 7 * Sat May 1 Portland at Phoenix TBD TNT / KGW
Actually: "The Atlanta-Milwaukee and Boston-Miami series also begin Saturday, as does Utah-Denver -- after some late-night rescheduling. That series was originally slated to open Sunday, but the NHL's Colorado Avalanche are scheduled for a home game that night, so the Phoenix-Portland series took the Sunday night slot instead." http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/basketball/nba/04/15/playoff.roundup.ap/index.html?eref=sihp
