NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

why?

Indiana was the weakest team in the field and that game stunk the joint out. Since its first and the only game of the day, everyone is gonna talk about how shitty they are and what a poor job the committee did. If they made that game the Noon game tomorrow or sandwiched it in the afternoon, it wouldn't get near the attention.

Makes sense but they only thought about ratings. ND as a stand alone prime time game going to bring in the ratings and they also wanted the best game on saturday night prime time ( tenn vs ohio state) meaning they would have needed to swap out this game with one of the other 2 which also leads to ND going up against 2 damn good NFL games in the afternoon slot tomorrow

Yup.

It’s exactly this

First 12 team cfp game ever

I believe they said first Friday night game in nd history

Notre dame

Prime time slot

Stand alone

Easy call

Go Chiefs...

Regular season hockey and basketball are very meh.

That is 1 of the above leagues with high stakes games.

OK...but it's first time ever with 3 CFP games AND there are a couple NFL games (to go with the full slate of NBA), as well.

Best ever? sure, that could be hyperbole but it could be up there.

NBA playoffs
Nfl draft
Golf major
Mlb games


There was an insane day a few years ago, when Chris Paul and the clippers sent the spurs home in game 7

Crazy good sports day

Doubt many put any of those 4 over CFP playoffs and NFL GAMES (not that the draft is not more exciting than baseball or golf to many, including me).
