Fuck Yea[h] NBA

New York Times columnist Richard Sandomir reported on twitter a few hours ago that the triple-header David Stern mentioned during the CBA press conference on Saturday morning, the one kicking off the 2011-2012 NBA season, might actually entail FIVE games instead of the original three.

Two would be on ESPN, Two on ABC, and one on TNT. Right now, at least the last time I checked, there was BOS at NYK on ESPN at noon*, then MIA at DAL in a rematch of the finals at 2:30 on ABC and CHI at LAL at 5:00 PM on ABC.

Who is going to be added?  Royce Young of CBSSports’ EOB thinks

Maybe the Thunder against the Grizzlies in a Western semifinal rematch? Or the Clippers at the Magic? Blake Griffin versus Dwight Howard would certainly draw interest, I’d think.

*All times EST

I haven’t ever been this excited about Christmas, and that includes the year I got a Gameboy (I’m old).
