And those of us who are retired and live in Chicago (7:30 pm CDT)! 

I'm so spoiled by the Hawks that I'm still upset that the game is at 7:30 and not 6 or 6:30.

 

Although tonight it works out cause the Rangers/Devils game starts at 6:30 so i can start with that.  Go Kaner!

For me anyway it is Gravy time, we beat up Miami on the Road who just knocked off the #1 seed and we have made the Boston series closer then most expected and Trae got his playoff swag back.

Would be awesome to take it to game 7 but I'm happy with how the season has unfolded at the end given how crazy this year was.

We have something to feel good abut now and a HUGE boost in the future with Snyder and JJ emerging. Very excited for the future of this team no matter what happens tonight.

We actually ended up having a better season than the Cavs and Bucks.. lol

I couldn't imagine a worse fate in life than watching the NFL draft.  Isn't it like 15 minutes between picks?

I get annoyed waiting 5 minutes for the NBA picks.

At the risk of sullying my stellar reputation, I gotta agree here on the NFL draft.  Literally everything about the NFL is offensively unwatchable for me.

Yep, very crazy year all around.

I said after the win in Miami that the season went from a 100% disappointment to 75%.

The win in Boston and bringing the series back to ATL for game 6 has brought that number down to 50%.

Stretching this series to 7 games would bring that number down even more.  Obviously winning the series would bring us close to zero depending on how we did in the next round.

I just want to see effort. It’s not about disappointments. I think the teams that can just continually assert physical presence always has a great chance and I think Miami has shown that.

 

I can’t stand how we come out flat against Boston. Part of the issue has been getting shots down on an unfamiliar basket in Boston. Another issue has been Trae’s effectiveness and shot selection. Looks like we could have both issues resolved for tonight but we need that supporting cast to just assert aggressiveness against the Boston clowns.

no, it favors people who don't have to get up for work in the morning.   i.e. housewives, college kids and bums who own tvs.

My work week ends on Thursdays. I'm ok with this late time.
