    Exactly! They can get fans to tune in easy on a weekend. There is no good TV programming on a weekend, but a weekday? They have stiff competition, and you can build up viewership. "Come see Hulk Hogan try to get his title back! He lost it to the Arab Sheik during Wrestlemania 4!"

    Blazers are a lock to win. The League can't have a total FLOP FEST with Rockets vs Spurs...it would mostly be:

    Indy down 7 in the 2nd quarter, and Scola seems to be their only consistent player who can get an open shot.

    Hibbert's decline has been so sudden, and the Pacers nose-dived right along with him. Paul George isn't proving to be much without Hibbert in the lane protecting the paint.

    This Hawks/Pacers game is fascinating. Atlanta has the swagger of a one-seed, and Indiana is playing hero ball trying to score.

    Indy's decline reminds me of our team in 2000-2001.

    Could you imagine the damage the Hawks would be doing WITH Horford? The Pacers have no answer for Teague also.

    The Pacers are kinda like the Lakers of the early 2010s. Can't stop PGs for shit.

    Do they have to blow this ship up if they get swept?

    They need a Point Guard and that's about it. They shouldn't be this bad as it is.

    They need to shop Hill for whatever they can get and let Turner walk though.

    Hawks running out of gas in Game 2. Game 3 is going to be huge for the Hawks.

    I just was thinking that a couple days ago. After we were best in the league, us and lakers had the same win streak. The lakers beating us at home created some implosion and we dropped all the way to 6th seed.

    After Indy lost to Miami at home, their decent was eerily similar

    It's too bad the TOR-BKN game is on a channel that I don't have, 'cause I'd much prefer to watch that than this blowout.

    DerozAn is playing pretty bad in the playoffs on both ends. Valencunas and Amir Johnson have been impressive though.

    Oh yeah. They are very proud of their f kg and kg sucks chants. Word I've heard is that a lot of the crowd has been blocked from broadcast, at least in game 1.

    Bunch of hockey fans who don't realize they are watching basketball

    Was it the GM or Mayor that said "Fuck Brooklyn" at the rally?
