I have no idea why they're making this so confusing. I'm sure by tomorrow afternoon we'll have figured it out for good. And according to ESPN’s schedule, it’s still on ESPN.

ESPN probably isn't going to cut the baseball coverage (which is only in the 2nd inning 30 minutes before the Pistons game begins) in the middle to switch to the playoffs. That's highly unprofessional. My money's still on TNT. You're my boy Matt, but I don't know what your sources are because every indication still and ALWAYS has pointed to TNT.

TNT has exclusive rights this round, which means if they were showing this game, FSN wouldn't be allowed to. (ESPN/ABC do not have exclusive rights, so if the game is televised, I'm guessing it has to be one of those two.) LB: That’s what I thought, too, but I’m not 100% sure it’s the case now.

Has the game being on TNT at 5pm (as does my digital cable). Matt, I'm near positive that all post-first round NBA playoff games are on national TV and have been that way for (at least) the past few years. There's few enough series for the NBA to spread it out on TV for every game. Yahoo! Has the game being on TNT at 5pm (as does my digital cable).

I'm a MI native out on the West Coast and I am at a loss for how I can watch the game. NBA.com says it is on 'The Score' which I guess is a Canadian ESPN ripoff. WTF? Does anyone have an idea how I can watch the Pistons finish their sweep? Also, why would the NBA sell playoff airtime to a channel that doesn't have national coverage?
