Game 7 is scheduled for a Monday evening. Night for the East Coast.
June 8, 2024
This seems really stupid to me. Why not play it on Sunday. Game 6 is scheduled for Friday. I hope they change it. That is if this series somehow goes 7.

This series is far apart. Any time the teams hop on a plane, there are 2 days between games instead of 1 day.
I think they spaced out the games more this year due to the amount of travel. If they had to play game 6 in edmonton and then game 7 in florida 2 days later all the players would prolly be exhausted
NBA finals game 7 is that Sunday.
Monday is also often a good night for sports ratings.
The first series where a 2-3-2 split could have been really beneficial for scheduling
Because travelling back and forth from eastern to pacific time zones 3 times in the span of 9 days will wreck you. Definitely unfortunate the scheduling works out the way it does though.
Don’t worry, the oilers won’t last that long
Not much different than Monday night football. Which is wildly successful. Do you have a bedtime or something?
Do we really expect it to go 7 ?
Saint Jean let’s go
You do realize it’s a 7 1/2 hr Flt each way right?
Happy birthday me
Don’t worry. The Oilers will get it done in 6, which is a Friday.
They play on Saturday though, back-to-backs in the finals in no bueno.
It’s like the NHL doesn’t know what it’s doing
Mondays rake in viewers for sporting events
The NHL and NBA finals try to avoid each other on TV. This year, ABC happens to have both the NBA and NHL finals, and rather than shunt one off to ESPN (and compete against themselves anyway), they’re airing both on broadcast.
I just hope for good ratings the game needs more eyes
I hate the panthers!
Look at the 7 game schedule, 2 days between when traveling.
Good thing it’s Oilers in 5, then.
They don’t want to compete with the NBA
So my GF and i made 2 separate future bets in the begging of march. she placed a 500$ bet FLA will win i placed a 500$ bet that EDM will win. now were both in the final. what do you think our cash out offers will be and who should take, who should hold?
idk. I’m pumped. Let’s let canada have one boys /s
NBA game 7 is scheduled for that Sunday night
1. Flight/travel time due to long distance between the teams.
2. Game 7 NBA on Sunday.
3. Monday does well when it comes to sports ratings.
If it seems stupid to you, it might just be because you’re not thinking it through all the way. Each of the three above separately would be enough to have the game on Monday. All three together and it’s a lock.
