    I work on Sunday, through the game if there is one that day. And Tuesday for that matter, so I'd probably miss both home games.

    That sucks, Entity. Can you record them? I'm working on "Bones" Monday through Thursday so I'll have to record any game that comes on those days.

    I'm coming back as a guest star for the season finale. I'll be patient and watch the games on DVR if I have to. I don't work Sat or Sunday and my day is short on Monday, so hopefully, there are no games on Tue-Thurs.

    Last week they had up that the first game would be monday the 20th on the ticket sales page, but then they took it down a few days later, so either they want it to remain a surprise, or there were some changes made... whatever it is going to be, last i checked the ticket page said like december something for game one, which would be a long wait indeed.

    It entirely depends on the match ups, I would guess. We'll know tomorrow night at the earliest. Thurs at the latest.

    I don't know when the first game will be, but something tells me it won't be in the middle of next season.

    It all depends on who ABC wants to show and when.

    I think I got it figured out. Utah was #4 in 2007 & 2008 vs #5 Houston and they had to travel there for game #1 (Sat) and #2 (Monday). They came home for #3 Thu, #4 Sat.
    However looking in 2006 Mavericks were #4 seed and they immediately played on Sunday and then Wednesday at home. A total reverse from Utah above.
    RG doesn't have a conflict until 5/9/09 (Celtic Women).
