    Anybody know if the game isn't going to be available on NBA Team Pass since the game is on NBATV?

    Historically the games on national tv, including NBATV, are indeed NOT available on league pass. Which sucks.

    I have Dish so can just watch NBATV through my dish app, but it is annoying.

    Who the f___ are the Indians? Is that egg ball or stick ball? No one cares about those nonathletic losers! Start the game at it's normal time. - @FTW Rockets FTW

    ^ This x 100

    I'll be at the gym. Ain't nobody changing my schedule because of some Indians. I was going to say greasy triple cheese burger munching guys but it looks like it'll be curry this time.

    Hopefully the Cavs are distracted with the WS and we can sneak out with a W!

    Yeah I don't get why a baseball game should impact the time a basketball game starts. I never have a problem watching two things at once. It's called the "last" or "return" button on the remote.

    I think the Rockets were the ones driving this time change. They want to be in and out of Clevenland as soon as possible with as little hassle as possible. I think they have to fly to NYC for the back to back immediately. If you factor in the what, 1.5 hour to get showered, packed loaded, etc., that means even with the 6 start, assuming a 8:30 finish, its a 10 pm exit from the arena. Which is fine. It's the 11 pm exit they wanted to avoid - one would assume there will just be lots of crowds, crazyness.

    Whatever. 2 wins at Cleveland, NYK and who cares what time it starts.

    Didn't Houston ask, but was denied? I wonder why they changed their minds.

    I don't like when they move games to an earlier time. You know Harden is going to come out in a funk because it isn't the natural time.
