I need to know this too....

My brother who is also a Suns fan has his wedding on April 19. Didn't realize that they playoffs started on that day and he's upset about it, haha. I mean worse comes to worse we'll TiVo the game but still would like to know. I know if we played the Lakers, we would have a Sunday slot for sure...

I think the stations decide, but I'm sure we won't know until we find out who we're playing. If it's the Spurs then I'm pretty sure we'll be on Sunday. If it's the Jazz or Rockets we'll probably be on Saturday. Not sure, but that is my guess.

I'm thinkin' Sunday regardless since we're a ratings draw.

That could be true too.

Maybe well have the LATE Sunday night game. That would be ideal.

Yeah I wouldn't mind that.

I'd prefer Saturday, so I can drink heavily when the Suns beat the **** out of the Spurs. Gotta work Monday.

+ You figure ABC is going to want the Lakers for its Sunday afternoon game. But ABC also has a Saturday afternoon game, its only other Game 1 on Saturday or Sunday. That would seem to be where the Suns wind up, regardless of opponent.

May 1st is my birthday. Damn it'd be nice for the Suns to knock them out of the playoffs then.
