Hate linking to Vardon, but the whole schedule is here. Brutal schedule around Christmas.

LeBron is going to be pissed at that Christmas schedule. lol Not only are we on the road for Christmas, but we're on the west coast for a week afterwards.

At least they finally cut down on Knicks games.

After the first three games, the schedule between Nov 1 and Christmas Day is about as easy at it could possibly be.

Cavs have one 4 in 5 nights, centered around Christmas and on the road. However, three of those teams are Portland, Denver, and Phoenix. Hardly a murderers row.

I counted 19 back to backs, which is higher than average for this season. Warriors one of only four teams with 20 back to backs.

On the flip side, I see a ton of 2 and 3 days off stretches in between games.

I always wondered why most of the contenders always open the season either on the road or part of a back-to-back.

I realize in the grand scheme of things how trivial it is, but I'm actually seething at having to open against the fu_ckin Bulls on the road. We have to travel to the Bay for the Christmas matchup because we lost in the Finals, yet we beat the shit out of the Bulls all season and the playoffs and have to travel to their fu_ckin court.

Blow an equestrian team, NBA.

We get 4 Friday home games, compared to 11 road games on Friday? Ugh. Weekend games are obviously the best to go to due to no work the next day. That blows. Not to mention, we don't have any premier home Sunday games, which are always awesome atmospheres. We usually would get at least one or two vs a top team in the LeBron era.

I don't really care who we play when, I am just pissed about the lack of weekend games at home and lack of playing good teams on the weekend at home for selfish reasons because those are the best games to be at.
