     Y'know, we're sort of lucky that the NBA and TV have this kind of 
relationship that they can change times and stuff to televise games of some 
note.  Compare Monday Night Football where, if I recall, they set the full 
slate for the year well in advance, so they can easily end up with slimy 
games late in the season.  Jordan goes down?  Fine, show a team worth 
watching.  Celtics get hot?  Put them on TV.  
      And hey - a tip to Stockton, scoring 20 points on his 40th birthday.
