    Okc vs jazz gm 6 finished late fri then rushed this series with a early sunday game. I dont see the logic of putting a game where 1 team is dead tired and it will be blowout. The national basketball corporation and commissioner nosferatu could care less about quality everything for them is the bottom line.

    This series should have started monday night

    Because that’s how it’s set. Not just for this game but every game. It’s the teams fular for not closing out their game sooner. We get an couple days off because we closed ours in 5 games. Cleveland is playing Tuesday and Boston is playing tomorrow.

    It’s the reward for closing out your series sooner. More rest. Either way, the Rockets were gonna be more rested than the Jass.

    Go shed these tears over at jassfanz board

    That's why the regular season matters.

    You get a better seed, you play easier teams, you play less games, you get more rest.


    Do you really think this series outcome would be any different if game 1 started Monday? Absolutely not.

    1 and a half days between series does sound a bit tight tho.

    Because more people are home on a Sunday to watch the product, which is how they make money.

    1) that’s the reward for winning in five and punishment for the other team going 7

    2) got help us if they make the playoffs even longer!
