Had a feeling it would be LA but still shocked.
A few thoughts:
It is about to be ALOT of jobs lost in Clev., that were involved in gameday operations and that downtown area that sportscenter is usually at for big games is going to be dead until that one time Bron comes to town.
The NBA has a big task on there hands as far as scheduling, no working person on the east coast is going to be able to stay up for those 10:30 or later starts. The scheduling may lead to West Coast game times being earlier and alot of complaining but the Sixers and Celtics are not enough when it comes to ratings. They just dont create the ratings that Bron does. They can not afford to lose an entire timezone for however many games that are on west coast time. Would not be surprised if games involving the Lakers start at 5:30 pacific time during the work week. And probably business as usual on Fri and Sat.
