Re: When is our first playoff game?
I would love Saturday at Noon personally.
Remember when’ is the lowest form of conversation.

They already released the time slots for the first weekend...

For those that don't want to bother, the games are at 3:00, 5:30, 8:00, 10:30 on both Sat and Sun. We will almost certainly be getting the 3:00 time slot as it historically is used for the matchup they expect to get the lowest ratings in the US.
Early tv schedules leaked last year too without a 12:30 saturday game and there we were.. saturday.. at 12:30.
Nothing confirmed until late tonight.

Yup, the comments about 3PM are a mirror image of last year.
And from the NBA’s perspective, it makes by far the most sense to put the Raptors/Bucks at 12:30 on Sat.
