I tried, I really did
OK, so it was Sunday night, and I figured I'd try to watch the Spurs-Pistons game. Actually, I didn't turn it on until around 10, and by then the Pistons were nearly dead. I lasted an hour. It just wasn't exciting. The thing is, I'm a big sports fan. I would watch if the Cavs were in it, but I watch the World Series and Super Bowl regardless of the teams involved.
Yes, I am old and curmudgeonly, but it's just too late. So the question is, how is it better for the NBA to show these games at 9 PM est, than to air them an hour earlier. Especially on a Sunday. I know, it sucks for the people of San Antonio (or LA, Portland, Seattle in other years) to have home games starting at 5 pm, but screw them. The NBA is a business, and isn't it better business to allow people on the East Coast to watch games to completion? Besides, the games would end at 10 pm EST / 7 West Coast. Isn't it better business for the whole country to be able to see the most exciting (ending) part of a game, vs. having them see the beginning only?
