t3fa...

The game is actually at 11:00 AM Pacific. That is crazy. Makes me want to take the under. These guys are going to be sleepwalking.

yea 1 pm Memphis time. I remember MLK day, there were a bunch of unders in the day games. I guess Tuesday afternoon is even more rare than Monday afternoon

Although if there are a bunch of kids in the audience, maybe they will be running and gunning to show off?

Do you think it will have an element of an all star game to it?? Like you say...running and gunning? That is very intriguing.....VERY. tulsa

I thought the game was at GS. 1:00 PM isn't that ridiculous then.

no, just kidding about the running for the kids, I doubt they will care who is watching...all has to do with the script anyway...

Seriously though, I usually look at GS unders on the road, they are horrible shooting away from home, although their last couple games they have been flying over 100. At some point I expect them to come back to 'normal' which for them is shooting just over 40%. I can't see that an unusual start time will help either team be 'up' for the game.

Steam loves the over though so I may wait - I guess it makes sense the public will look at recent GS games and play over
