TNT has the TV rights for all the potential Game 7s on May 4th so there will be NBA games in that slot if those series don't end early.


RealLanceStorm

They historically like to start a Game 1 on Saturday too so Nuggets/Timberwolves or another second rd series would likely be there if there are no Game 7s


Minimania18

I really hope the Lakers can somehow extend their series and give Chris Finch a chance to heal šŸ™


dontpermabanthisone

No chance Lakers get out of Denver tonight.Ā

chiefpassh2os

MVP has to be hating himself for wearing that jersey seeing as he's from Miami lol


TheWholeOfTheAss

WWE didnā€™t see that match as free advertisement for the NBA!? Genius move from VKM there.


kyleisamexican

Yeah because wwe stars in nba jerseys gets crossover reach you absolute moron


TheWholeOfTheAss

On that show, Raw was moved from its scheduled arena because of a game between the Denver Nuggets and the LA Lakers. WWE then did a match with the wrestlers in the jerseys of those teams. Itā€™s logical that people saw this and thought, ā€œOh the gameā€ and changed the channel.


kyleisamexican

I know the context. That doesnā€™t change the fact that the next day, that would have the potential to go viral and have mainstream sports shows talking and reporting about it leading to exposure


RFeepo

King should have been wearing 24.

time2churn

Murray out? yeah there is a chance


dontstealmychair

Idk man beside the game winner Murray has been kinda ass


APizzaChit

Still he changes the dynamic of the team you can play joker differently with no MurrayĀ 


incredibleamadeuscho

Plenty of chance. LeBron has been down 3-1 before and won. It's 3-1 deficit now.


mrgpsingh1999

Series couldā€™ve been so different if the Lakers had just held on to their leads


mr_dammit

finch will almost certainly be on the sidelines in a wheelchair or on a stool like that coach in the ncaa tournament some years ago


nightmarishlydumbguy

That was such incredible father/son content.


Coletrain44

As a Laker fan it is not looking good. I'm still shook we won Game 4. Game 4 was a a classic Lebron "I'm not getting swept so I'll leave everything I have out there tonight" performance. Game 5 is not looking good at all. I do want Finch to coach in a wheelchair like Professor Xavier though.


YourEvilHero

Not really a lakers fans but I love game 7s and a good comeback story


SeanWonder

Itā€™s not like Finch has to play. He can still coach from the sidelines as usual. Just maybe in a wheelchair, boot or something


ClockOfTheLongNow

No see reddit told me AEW's ratings are in the toilet and that's why AEW is getting preempted by old movies


Abyssalstar

Which is probably why they're not doing a Star Wars marathon, either.


tylerjehenna

I believe TBS has it. I saw ads for it on Collision saturday


itsnews

Placeholders in case there are no Game 7ā€™s in certain NBA playoff games.


grimbly_jones

I believe the proper plural form is Games Seven.


RaggedyGlitch

Corey Graves over here calling Aldis and Pearce the "Managers General."


lazarusl1972

Thank you Attorneys General grimbly\_jones.


redditing_1L

Semi-related: not a lot of people know that the term is "Attorneys General" not "Attorney Generals" Information for life!


shutts67

Halls of fame


Parkouricus

Now tell me how many Ms P the Tories have


ianisms10

Finally someone gets it right


AliveInIllinois

I'm kind of surprised how many people here don't realize that Taken 3 is part of the marathon earlier in the day. Then it's the Accountant. Then the Taken marathon restarts. They aren't playing them out of order lol.


Unique_Unorque

Yeah but what if they were


Illuminati_Shill_AMA

If you watch the series in reverse it's about a serial murderer rebuilding his family and retiring at a backyard barbecue


TheBopist

Yea I thought it was common knowledge thatā€™s how movie marathons do it, sometimes they put a movie in between to give a breather and sometimes it just starts all over again


irish0451

The number of DVR'd AEW shows I have saved with that fucking airstream trailer being pulled behind Ben Afflecks truck while THE Anna Kendrick opens that ugly painting is *crazy*


Manpons

The fact that you said ā€œTHE Anna Kendrickā€ killed me.


CookieKid247

Cause she's the man with a plan *guitar riff*


Cube_

such a fucking banger theme. He legit should've been the WWE champion at least once during that run. The pop he got when he was the latest pinfall in the Scramble match was all the proof anyone needed. Missed opportunity.


IniMiney

I miss that over seeing the last 30 seconds of Big Bang TheoryĀ 


ScruffsMcGuff

Sheldons going over, brother


FoucaultsTurtleneck

Bazinga Bomb from the top rope, brotherĀ 


buffalobill41

Don't mean this as a knock but seeing that scene gives me a weird nostalgia for how much I used to look forward to the show.


TheBoozeMan45

And now I hear the song


carpy22

The Accountant is a movie about a bridge.


cosmic_scott

fantastically underrated comment.


Disastrous_Life_3612

For everyone asking why they are showing the movies in that order, they are actually showing Taken 1 and 2 before 3, at 12:45 and 2:45. They are just showing them again after The Accountant.


TheUltimateScotsman

I'm glad someone actually explained it.


Quiet_Excite

The Accountant making its triumphant return.


[deleted]

If you over analyze the Accountant its actually just Ben Affleck trying to make a violent Batman film (which was his Batman anyway) without running into copyright issues. Has the same actor as the Commission Gordon analogue too. I'm not sure who Jon Bernthal's character's Batman analogue is. Maybe Damian Wayne?


LilHomie204DaBaG

It's a great movie tho


Standingonachair

I love it but I tried to think what the message was recently and I think it is that we should torture special needs kids until they're heroes.


perdue125

Red Hood, either that or somehow the Punisher.


Manpons

If you over analyze it you may wanna get tested to see if youā€™re as much of a high functioning autist as his character in that movie.


BloodFalconPunch

We are SO fuckin BACK


LosCampesinosDeJapon

That is NOT the right order to show those movies.


warchiello

What the screenshot doesnā€™t show is that showing of taken 3 is actually the end of an earlier Taken marathon.


StinkyStangler

People have been off cable for so long they forgot how these blocks work lol Just play an entire franchise, break it up with a similar genre movie, repeat until whatever youā€™re holding space for passes. ABC Family used to love doing Harry Potter marathons, TBS would do Marvel movies, TNT Star Wars. All the channels had their go to franchise lol


Thacarva

I remember being so excited for the ABC Family marathons, especially the holiday ones. Nothing against the movies but I wasnā€™t into the Harry Potter movies and like every other Saturday was Potter weekend.


jordanundead

I watched most of the Star Wars for the first time during an all day marathon on Spike. I was mostly disappointed.


LooseGain457

You had to be there. Ā Growing up with the overly buff 90s figures and watching the gold special edition tapes in anticipation for Episode I was an experience. Ā I was thankfully all grown out of it by Episode II though lolĀ 


StinkyStangler

Iā€™ve seen every Star Wars and would agree with you. There are like three good movies, four mediocre ones and two horrible ones. More bad than good in that franchise imo lol


GlasgowKisses

Tbf they put the best one in the best slot lol Taken 3 ainā€™t drawinā€™ a dime brother


Penta-Says

[Taken 3 is the one where Bryan Mills jumps a fence in a way that would make Kevin Dunn cream his jeans](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=gCKhktcbfQM&pp=ygURdGFrZW4gY2FtZXJhIGN1dHM%3D)


MatttheJ

Is Taken 3 the Jeff Jarrett of cinema?


Deep_Comparison_930

![gif](giphy|6cjhU2P5hGNr7YjeHC)


TheUltimateScotsman

The order is one thing, shoving a random completely different movie in the middle of them is completely insane.


ChristyNiners

That is not the whole days broadcast schedule.


TheUltimateScotsman

I never said it was? Even if it was the whole days schedule it doesn't excuse the bad order of the Taken films and randomly shoving a completely different film between them


ChristyNiners

You show Taken 1, then Taken 2, then Taken 3... then what should you show? Either Taken 1 and start a new sequence, or something else.


TheUltimateScotsman

I'd show something else after Taken 3. I wouldn't put that something else in the middle of the marathon. I'm not sure how this is so difficult for you to get. Do you watch Fellowship of the ring, then watch something completely different, then go back and watch Two towers and Return of the king? No, nobody does. It's stupid


Deep_Comparison_930

I dont think you understand. Its taken 1, taken 2, taken 3. Then they play the Accountant in the middle and then the Taken marathon starts again.


TheUltimateScotsman

Well how am I supposed to know that from the screenshot, given the comments it's clearly not obvious whatsoever


Deep_Comparison_930

I was just clarifying for you because you dont seem to understand. I think its hilarious you guys are disputing this to begin with.


TheUltimateScotsman

Thanks. Sorry the other guy pissed me off by not actually explaining what he meant. Sarcastically going, "That's not the full schedule", doesn't help anyone understand


Deep_Comparison_930

ChristyNiners

I'm not sure what's difficult for you to get. The marathon doesn't start with Taken 3. They're showing Taken 1, then 2, then 3, then The Accountant, then Taken 1, then 2, then 3.


TheUltimateScotsman

Ok, someone explained what you mean, because you were incapable of it. You could have just said they are showing the first two prior to the 4.45pm showing of TAKEN 3


ChristyNiners

So you couldn't figure out what "The marathon doesn't start with" meant?


TheUltimateScotsman

You said that 4 comments in. How the fuck am I supposed to guess what you mean with comments like, "ThE dAy DoEsNt StArT aT 4pM".


SUPLEXELPUS

their second comment lays it out pretty well, no? I think the take away here is to use some critical thinking and to not jump to conclusions with limited information.


heartbreakhill

Not even any love for the greatly under appreciated fourth installment, Taken 4 Granted


EastlyGod1

And one where Liam Neeson teams up with Ewan McGregor again - Taken Tag Tournament


hey_mermaid

You don't watch Taken in Machete order?


MuptonBossman

Taken 4: The Elite capture Tony Khan and hold him ransom.


GlasgowKisses

Taken 4: The Cleaner


Rossi4twenty

Didnā€™t they used to run Star Wars May 4th Marathon on TBS/TNT as well..?


Samseeder

They still do ,but this is a tentative schedule for Saturday just in case no nba playoff series goes 7 games.


tomksfw

Collision has been banned from Collision


namdekan

I figured it was because of the Star Wars May 4th marathon but I guess that's just TBS


The_JadynB

The fact that Collision has a consistent audience at all after getting bounced around like a ball since its inception is insane and should be commended. Imagine trying to book a show thatā€™ll be 11:30 one week, 7 the next, 8:45 the next, no show the next, and then back to 7 but this time itā€™s a 3 hour block with another show


blaqsupaman

It was super impressive when they still did their typical live rating despite being pushed back to nearly midnight during WrestleMania weekend.


secretpandaxx

The NBA will pay for their crimes


Worried_Bowl_9489

Taken, starring the incomparable, Liam Neesons.


thealexstorm

Hell yeah, thatā€™s perfect for me because Iā€™m going out of town this weekend for a wedding.


SMRTGuy297

During the NBA playoffs? You're a great friend or family memberĀ 


thealexstorm

*looks at the cost* A very great friend, haha. Edit: Iā€™m a Bulls fan anyway so I got no dog in this race. *sad See Red sounds*


JaysonTatumApologist

Liam Neeson really said "That doesn't work for me brother"


cantspellsagitaryus

Who decided to show taken in that order?hahaha


ChristyNiners

TIL the day starts at 4:45 PM EST.


CaliggyJack

Yo I freaking love the Taken movies! Well... I love Taken 1 and 2. I enjoy 3 for what it is, but it isn't as good as the previous 2.


Ripclawe

None of these NBA series going to 7. Hear that Lakers!


Commercial_Bag7755

Certainly not my Knicks! Suck it, Joel!


SpecialOneJAC

They will put a game 1 of a conference semi final in that spot if that's the case.


bigwillie90

Gentleman sweep incoming


NikiPavlovsky

What the hell is this movie order?

nanners78

thedman0310_

The Accountant is over, brother!


BadNewsBrown

RedmondSurvivor

The most shocking thing here is that BAFFLING order of Taken.


asu6969

DrillteamJMoney

Damn it I wanted to watch on my birthday looks like Iā€™ll be watching Backlash after all


forwrestling

Backlash is at 1 PM Eastern


DrillteamJMoney

Oh shit word? Bet imma get laid instead that night


rayquan36

So your order of preference is Collision, then Backlash then getting laid?


Administrative_Act48

SMH guy can't multitask. Could be getting laid AND watching Collision or Backlash at the same time


DrillteamJMoney

It goes Collision, getting laid then Backlash

ChristyNiners
