I have no idea, but since it's going to be an ABC game (is that confirmed ?), I would assume that it would be a 2:30 game.

If it's TNT or ESPN, like I am praying, it probably won't be until the evening then.

Have they said when games 3 and 4 are going to be yet?

I think Game 2 will be on Monday, so knowing the NBA, I will assume that Game 3 won't be until Thursday with ABC then having Game 4 on Saturday/Sunday.

I checked my Comcast guide which by no means is correct but Kentuckey Derby coverage on ESPN till 5pm turns into the ocho with bowling, then ABC has Derby from 6 to whenever. ABC has hockey it looks like before that starting at 2-3pm. TNT has b-ball coverage starting at 7:30pm. Golf on CBS starts at 3pm. All times eastern time, hope this helps plan you Saturdays. Don't forget the big fight on HBO.

Me too. That rules out any possibility of a Bill Walton appearance.

The Derby typically goes off around 5:20 PM CDT so ESPN would end their coverage usually around 4 PM and it moves over to NBC til 6 PM.

ABC7 doesn't have any sports listed for Saturday. TNT would have the two western conference series finales then on Saturday.

NBC not ABC, my bad. Here in Michigan there are two feeds for each NBC, ABC and FOX. It can get pretty confusing. With what you are saying, where does that put the bulls on Saturday?

Ofman gave three possible starting times....I think they were 3:30, 5 or 7...Heard it on the move, so I could be wrong with this info.

What is David Stern and his minions doing over there. Throw a fucking dart at a clock and tell us, why keep it a secret. I need to plan my Saturday.

I think they need to first find out if there are going to be any Game 7's on Saturday.

Right now, there's a good chance we could have Chicago/Detroit along with Game 7's for both Utah/Houston and GS/Dallas, though I hope GS closes this out tomorrow night.

Although a series or two is up in the air shouldn't they have some sort of plan in place for things like this? Having teams with a week off makes for a lot of junk time for the NBA. They have the worst playoff structure of all team sports and it's getting worse this year.

They want to put the games in the time slots that will give the best ratings, and they probably won't make that decision until tomorrow. It will probably be announced tomorrow as TBD - IF Dallas/GS goes to Game 7, the Bulls/Pistons will start at Time A, else Time B.

It's way too confusing, but I understand why they do it.

Wow, what a Saturday coming up. We have Bulls-Pistons, other playoff games ?, the Kentucky Derby and DeLaHoya-Mayweather.
