Any idea when your first game will be?

Saturday or Sunday? Or when will it be determined?

Well, generally, the 1 seed in the West would get the Sunday game, so the Hornets would play Saturday.

I know the Hornets are asking the league to play on Sunday to accommodate a concert that is in the arena on Saturday night. If the game is on Saturday, the concert (Rush) will get bumped.

All I can really guess is that since they're a top seed/have HCA, they'll get a later game.

Much of it too could hinge on who their opponent is. Denver has a wacky timezone, whereas Dallas is in CST just like NOLA.

Thanks thats why I asked. I know someone who is flying down to NO for the concert. He already has plane/hotel booked and isnt sure if there will actually be a concert or not. Thanks for the info

yeah.. the RUSH band thats been around since the 70s. Someone I work won front row tix, so he booked a plans and hotel for the concert. Only to find out that it might get canceled due to the damn Hornets. Why couldn't you guys keep the 1 seed?

well, don't you know we are too inexperienced? thats what the analysts say, so it must be true.

the jazz are a great team, and Sacramento is always a hard win to get on the road.

truthfully i blame pargo. lol.

oh well. sorry about your friend.

that group Rush should have sued if another band used their name.

Rush got bumped to Sunday night for those of you who were wondering:
