Rockets v Cavs will now start at 5pm Houston time.

My guess is it won't.

 

Which is total BS.

After all these years, the NBA still doesn't have an app to stream NBATV either, so frustrating.

 

It's about ad revenues, for those who don't know, the World Series out rated even Cowboys - Eagles Sunday night. The NBA wants as many uncontested eyes as they can and this is a marquee match up.

 

Of course, nobody except us die-hard basketball fans actually watch October, or really November basketball. And NFL ratings have tanked all year so that wasn't exactly a surprise.

 

NBA TV still has the start time as 6:00 EST, so this means I'll want to record the shows before it and then record the game, right?

 

I read that too. LeBron probably asked and well, you know the rest...

 

yup, Watkins reported yesterday after the game Rockets asked, were denied, said they'd get police escorts to the airport since they have a back to back, but the press release made it show that the Cavs requested it and were granted....someone called him out on Twitter and he said the home team can be the only ones to request time change



translation = Calvin Watkins' source sucks.....

 

'cism!

wait, so you will not change your schedule to watch the rockets take on the defending champs? you are FTL Rockets FTL!

 

No respect to the Rockets organization.

 

I totally agree and have sent in complaints every year.

 

Actually, it seems like the rules were followed if that is indeed the case. Chances are the Rockets contacted the Cavs and asked them if they could request the change and they liked the idea so they did.

 

i love earlier games. don't have to wait as long to see them play lol

 

Harden won't be ready! He probably had a female vampire sucking the life out of him last night!
