I'm praying it's not Saturday night, I already have plans.

I'm praying it's not Saturday night, I already have plans.

Bruins play Saturday night. Unless they split the court into halves I think you'll be fine.

It's absolutey gotta be Sunday. No way Stern lets Bos-NY game 1 be on Saturday afternoon.

that'd be great if they hold off until Sunday.  I've got tickets to Spamalot on Saturday night and would hate to miss the game.

an extra day of rest for the players is great.  waiting another day for the playoffs sucks for the fans

When will the rest of the Schedule be announced?

Probably tomorrow, the Western Conference matchups are still to be determined by tonight's results.

Kind of a big gap between Game 2 and Game 3.  I remember it being that way last year for the Cavs series, though.

I'd love for this one to be over in 4 or 5, but I'm not that optimistic.
