The Indiana Pacers vs. Bucks TV schedule has been revealed
By Ryan Stano
The Indiana Pacers are the sixth seed in the Eastern Conference. They will take on the three-seed Milwaukee Bucks. It's a game that will showcase two teams that don't really like each other. It's going to be a matchup that NBA fans are going to want to watch.
The NBA must agree with that based on the times and the networks that the games will be shown on. The TV schedule was released on Wednesday morning for the entire series between these teams. Only one of the games will be relegated to NBA TV, and that's Game 2.
Indiana's first game in Milwaukee will be on Sunday at 7 pm on TNT. Game 4 and Game 7 will also be on TNT, assuming this series even needs to go to a Game 7. Game 3 will be televised on ESPN. The rest of the games of the series don't have a TV network yet.
The Pacers will get the national TV audience they deserve in the first-round series against the Bucks
As far as times go, they are very friendly to the Eastern time zone. Only the first four games have times. Game 1 on Sunday will be at 7 pm. Game 2 is on Tuesday at 8:30 pm while Games 3 and 4 in Indy will be at 5:30 pm on April 26th and 7 pm on April 28th respectively.
These game times are perfect for the Pacers and their fans. It allows everyone watching on TV to be up for the games and not have to stay up until midnight to watch the end. It's also nice to see that they only have one NBA TV game, which still not everyone gets.
Once the series gets going and we have a better idea of how long it might go, we'll learn the times and the networks at which the other games will be played. We'll let you know when that information becomes available.
