Just letting you guys know that they replaced the DET-NOH game with the Lakers and Rockets on Sunday and the game will start at 12:30 PST. :D

There isn't one. You will find out before Sunday. They never really have an official release though. They just say on TV that this game has been changed and what not. This is confirmed by a radio broadcaster for the Rockets that this will be a game on ABC for sure at 2:30 CST > 12:30 PST.

True or not, I like the idea... it's a step up from the countless Miami ABC Sunday games :rofl:



My week lineup TNT Thursdays, ESPN Fridays, ABC Sundays, and KCAL9/CW5/FSNW all inbetween.

joel meyers messed up so many times during last nights game, it was distracting. i guess i noticed it more because most of the games the lakers werent that much interesting till the very end and it totally exploited meyers flaws

Awesome! This game should be entertaining. We're at home right? The red-hot Rockets coming against a team that's been red-hot all season. T-Mac vs. Kobe.

The Lakers website hasn't made the changes yet but if you go to "Broadcast Schedule" near the top it's been updated. Just checked it to see how well the Lakers tend to do when the games are broadcasted nationally and it's actually pretty good besides the two losses Cleveland.

Entertaining and provides great insight. He alone has often been enough to get me to watch games that I don't give a damn about.

its funny watching away games on the local channels. I got League Pass cause I could not deal with not watching the games during the 9 game trip, and man it is so funny how these guys talk so much crap about Kobe, but by the end of the game they are on his n@ts.

If Houston's streak is still in tact Sunday, this will be the game of the year. I am pumped for this one.

Side note: Wasn't this game originially supposed to be Dallas/Miami? I don't remember a national TV game being changed twice before but I'm glad they got it right.
