    NBA rules state that [paraphrasing] if a team plays a game in a later timezone on the first half of a back-to-back, the second night's game must be pushed back if it is reasonable to do so [/paraphrasing].

    This allowed the Rockets to push tipoff back to 7:30. This rule generally applies when teams face the possibility of tipping off a new game less than 24 hours than the previous game ending.

    Did I honestly just hear the Pelicans commentator say that James Harden is basically a smaller Tyreke Evans?

    Does this black out include the pre-game show or no?
