If early EST Sunday starts,,,

are bad for the Hawks, body clocks and all that, then by proxy shouldn't prime time games, especially in the East, be an advantage? When the game ends well after 11:00 PM, EST, it should feel 3 hours earlier to our guys. Right?

ECB!!!!!!!!!!

Wait what was the question?

Dunno. The excuse guys will tell you it dun don't work like that.

Theoretically speaking, you are correct sir.

The only way to make it a non-factor is to either have less games or a season similar to baseball or soccer because an west to east or reverse requires 3 days in said time zone for full acclimation.

I've googled about a bit when discussing this topic, and here's one article about a Stanford study that pops up pretty prominently. How annoying that in trying to find out if West Coast teams get the shaft with the 10 a.m. thing (they do; there's really no argument about it) I find a university-level study documenting how hard it is for the poor widdle babies on the East side.

C'mon Stanford, show a little solidarity!

Were pretty good at primetime games for a reason. Whats are record in primetime under carroll?

I still believe that had 2013 divisional round been primetime, we would have won that game.

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

I love you for creating this thread, Scotte. No, really.

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm using my hand but thinking of you.
