I'm in Seattle, and I had the same experience. Fortunately for me, the game was on Comcast Sports Channel or whatever it is. Unfortunately for me, it appears that Comcast Sports Channel or whatever it is has a cheese cloth filter that makes everything look fuzzy. It sucks. The time that it was on both channels at once, I was flipping back and forth to make sure that it wasn't my eyes deceiving me... and NBA TV was NOT in HD. After the Blazers game, when I flipped to Mojo (which was showing the Oregon State game in HD) my head almost exploded in joy because I could actually see things without ignoring the blurriness and pixelation. /rant Ed O.
Oh, yeah: regarding the game. Some good things. The Nash-less Suns are an inferior team to an Oden- and Webster-less Blazers team... which is very promising. Aldridge was punished by Amare in the third, when it really counted, but Stoudemire is a stud and this will hopefully help LA improve. Rudy is pretty amazing around the hoop. I'm surprised when he misses a shot because they all look like they're going in. I don't know how, but I hope he gets more minutes in the rotation, and soon. It's too bad we couldn't have pulled this off, but we're just not good enough to win these kinds of games consistently just yet. Ed O.
Shaq also had a pretty good game down the stretch, particularly after he was called for the offensive foul on Pryz.
CSN reminds me of the current Mac commercial where the geeky lookin dude is separating the money between advertising and fixing vista. That how i feel about CSN and there non-hd feed. My plasma never looked soo bad. If i made a little more scratch i'd get the box, but unemployment is preventing that from happening.
It was blacked out. They had the pre-game show, but then the blacked it out. And so my radio/TV boycott continued for Comcast-only games...
