The Sixers vs Bucks is the biggest game. It impacts the scoring leader, the eastern conference standings and MVP.

Huge game tonight between the Sixers and the Bucks.

Clippers vs. Jazz is an important game for the Jazz.

If only TNT/NBA flexed that Bucks/Sixers game instead of seeing the garbage Lakers again.

Only a few games tonight, but Wow, what a doozie between the Bucks and Sixers. I wonder if they will both go all in, or will there be some "resting" of players tonight?

Why the hell isn’t Bucks/Sixers on TNT??? I don’t want to see the garbage lakers

The Lakers game can’t be flexed because then there wouldn’t be a double header. There’s only one west game and only the Nets game fits into that time slot

If Utah loses today they’re tied with Denver. Who has the tiebreaker?

Jazz have the tie-breaker, they swept the season series with the Nuggets. But it would create a lot of pressure on them.

ummmmm. lakers play in Dallas.... at 630 local time.

eta: Why not keep the LAC Game and they should have the capability to flex the Bucks 30 min back. Hell split the difference and do a a 20 min delayed started and shorter pre-game.

So far the major players look like they're playing. Only Gianni was listed as "Probable." He was "questionable" for the Grizzlies game but he played (albeit only 28 minutes). Haven't seen anything regarding Philly's injury report.

Especially with Lebron and AD likely sitting this one.

Just insane that TNT doesn't have the flexibility to switch to the Bucks/Sixers games. I mean they shifted their casts mid-season due to the NFL, why not just change their coverage today?

Lakers are gonna fold like a cheap chair tonight regardless of Lebrons status.

I think these things have to be planned well ahead of time (you're changing the travel of an entire production team).

The Lakers may suck but there's still major implications for both teams.

Hopefully most everyone has figured out how to stream games by now.

It has nothing to do with streaming and everything to do with who is doing the play-by-play and the halftime/post game.

It's been obvious for a long time now which of these two matchup was going to be the marquee one - they need to be more flexible with this stuff.
