    Hopefully we get some Easter night magic and steal HCA.

    Too bad it's not Denver we play, nuggets fans would be too stoned to find the arena.

    That schedule shows us having home court advantage.

    Maybe Houston will fall for it and just show up here?

    And that'd result in automatic forfeiture, right?

    The stage is awful bright for LMA/Lillard and Harden/Dwight. Last game of game 1's and at a time most people shouldn't have prior obligations.

    Bro the whole eastern time zone will be asleep by the start of the second quarter (not including me, of course).

    And it's going to be even worse for our home games. 10:30pm EST starts (more like 11 given that they're on TNT). SMH

    So I guess no one ever watched the Lakers in the playoffs? Too late?

    Correct, nobody watches. That team also had a lot of trouble negotiating TV contracts since its so late....

    Meanwhile the Wizard right now get their first nationally televised game of the season.

    I live in North Carolina, don't have cable, and I watch the Blazers on LP Broadband. Am I just out of luck trying to watch the Blazers live during the playoffs? (going to a bar isn't a option, I've got to stay at home with sleeping babies).

    Pretty much. Either cave in and get cable or seek out a stream somewhere. I'm in the same boat, but I got bars near me that I can go to if I'm desperate for a decent quality broadcast.

    Bummer, that's what I thought.

    Archived game early Monday morning it is! With coffee instead of a beer! Boo.

    Well all of the playoff games are on TNT, ESPN, ABC, or NBATV which you can get through your cable. If you don't have cable you are just about out of luck as league pass doesn't work for nationally televised games unless they are NBATV games. If it were me I'd subscribe to some sort of cable service that has no contract and then cancel when the Blazers are out of it. Hopefully that means a few months of cable!

    Ya I'm not sure LPBB will still archive playoff national tv games.

    I think that this year subscribers can watch archived playoff game...something they changed from previous years.

    Do you remember how we were told what a shame it was that POR and SEA got #1 and #2 because no one would be up for those games? Then not more than a sentence later, they complained how one of them couldn't go to a place like LA, where they could be seen. Last I checked, California is in the same time zone as most of Oregon and Washington.
