    at 5.30am to watch an NBA game?

    Sonics v Clippers 5.30am ET on thursday [​IMG]

    all because it is in Japan

    Any clipper fans or sonics fans that will do it? or any harcore NBA fan? Bad thing is with no Ray Allen there it's not really worth it.

    I think it'll be funny to watch. No one is going to be on their game. Naps will ensue right afterward for all the players.

    Well, seeing as how I don't have that, even if I wanted to watch it, I couldn't.

    No, it is not worth getting up at 4:30 A.M. to watch a Sonics vs. Clippers game or any game for that matter.

    Yeah I'd get up that early for game 7 and I'd make sure that I wasn't the only crazy shouting at the tube. I'd wake the whole block! It's time that North Americans start acting like real fans (short for fanatic!) If people around the world will wake-up for football(soccer) then I can drag myself out of bed for the best team sport this side of hockey.

    This is what VCR's are for. If this was a Bulls/Spurs game, I'd probably tape it. I need my precious sleep for school. :P

    NBA Finals, All-Star game and Final Four would be the only times I would get up that early to watch a basketball game. That however would never happen as the NBA would schedule those games for prime time slots. Since that is the case, I would never get up at 4:30 to watch a game. That is because, if its on at 4:30 it isnt going to be that important of a game.

    I'm as hardcore as they come when it comes to basketball...If Ray Allen was playing I might be tempted to watch it....but even thats a big IF...Even though Elton Brand one of my other favourite players is playing....It is just too early

    Will be repeated I would of thought though...

    No, of course its not worth getting up for. I would just be going to sleep if it was on the weekend, so i might catch the beginning of it. Can't they just tape the game and watch it when they get up?
