By the way for those of us on the West Coast the game is scheduled to be started 2:30 hours from now. My computer says 5:30 hours.
Yes, we are hyper aware. We are working to resolve some server time issues that affect what users in other time zones see. For now, the targeted start time for the event is conflicting with the relative times in other zones. EST was fine for us to begin with (because the Pistons AND most fans are there). But, we are planning to have the issue solved by the next tip off if not tonight.

It's a little harder to test these kind of things in theory because you actually have to have them live on the server to verify certain variables. It's likely you'll see it one of three ways 1) it's simply gone. 2) it goes haywire again before it gets right (38 days) or 3) it gets fixed and works flawlessly.

Please bear with us.

I guess the lesson here is that while it's fun to see a countdown timer on your favorite forum, you really shouldn't use it to plan your life.

the fact that it counts down puts it ahead of 85% of the projects implemented by my work place.

Quick point about time machines.

Since the Earth is always moving, wouldn't the joke be on you if you were transported into the future and you just ended up in space, where the Earth used to be? The pop would be so anticlimactic.

Keeping up with the position of the Earth is no easy task.

Even though this analyst is a bit of a hack, thought I'd post it here.

Talked to 'Horn today and he is stoked as well to see how we do. His analysis is that the true mismatch is CBill. He should really eat them up and our bench according to him is also much better. Don't expect the newbies or even Amir to have any PT. JMax is his special pupil. He's been talking to him before games and helping to address the problem of fouling so much. If you notice he somewhat is improving and staying on the court.

I find it an absolute shame to use a "big game" to avoid doing your homework. Preparing for the playoffs is the task that must never take a back seat. Furthermore, to assume that Amir would not help win the game - that we might otherwise lose, is a dangerous assumption, that just plays into the hand of a coach who is desperately trying to fight Dumars on Dumars' goal of infusing some youth into this team. Amir should have no further DNP's. Joe Dumars' word should be upheld.
