    I know it can't be announced until all the games are played and matchups set, but any idea how long it will take after tonight's final game? Will it be tonight or tomorrow morning? Having tickets to Game 1, I can't wait to find out if I will be going Sat. or Sunday...

    Should be out late tonight or tomorrow morning if I remember correctly (based on previous years). Don't quote me.

    I think the schedule comes out tomorrow. I'm guessing Game 1 will be Saturday night, around 8:30-ish(which means Harden's hangover will have passed by then).

    Certain ticket sites and odds and ends around the web indicate our games will be Saturday and Monday. Prob not set in stone but a good guide.

    Just saw your reply. Last year, when rounding up friends for the playoff pre-sale I assumed the same thing and was way off... It's found it pretty hard to predict.

    They're trying to fit it with Joey Crawford's schedule.

    my guess would be:

    Pacers Hawks AM SAT
    Bulls Nets First Afternoon Game SAT
    Raptors Wizards Late Afternoon Game Sat
    Rockets Blazers - Late game Sat

    then Sunday:
    Heats - Bobcats - Am sunday
    OKC - Mavs -- Afternoon sunday
    Spurs - Grizzlies - late afternoon sunday
    Clippers- GSW - late game sunday.

    Yeah, but last year the first game was in OKC. The last time the Rockets had home court in Round 1, both Game 1s were in that Saturday night 8:30 slot.

    4/5 match-up is always bad in terms of schedule and national tv coverage. We better get all the games ESPN or TNT!!

    That's one reason I'm really hoping the first game is Saturday. TNT has been advertising that their NBA Playoff coverage begins on 4/20 which is Sunday. That means all the Saturday games will be on ABC or ESPN which means no TNT curse for the Rockets if they play that day.

    My guess is the Clippers - Warriors will be the 930 start Saturday night while we get the 8:30 start Sunday night.

    They won't put us at 930 start Saturday night will give that to a west coast team. So unless we are the 7 o clock game saturday we will likely be Sunday night...my 2 cents.
