Why does NBA draw out their playoffs so much that most of the first round series have three days between games?

I agree it's ridiculous

Probably because they want only one game on at a time

It appears that the Finals don't even start until June 12th?
2 months of NBA playoffs? Way too much. I'll start watching
a month from now.

Other than arena availability, the folks at ESPN/ABC & TNT control the shots regarding start times. That may explain why the Bulls/Celtics' Game 1 Saturday starts the NBA Playoffs, I believe @ 11:30a from the TD Banknorth Garden...
