Game time switched

PILING UP THE W’s
With their franchise record 21st consecutive victory, the Rockets are in the company of teams with the longest winning streaks in NBA history. The only single-season streaks of 17 or more wins:
• 1995-96 San Antonio Spurs
Note: The 1971-72 Lakers, 1970-71 Bucks and 1999-2000 Lakers won championships.
Sunday’s Lakers-Rockets game has been moved to 2:30 p.m. and will be broadcast nationally on ABC and locally on KTRK (Channel 13).
Mike Breen, Mark Jackson and former Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy will have the call on the game.
Originally scheduled for 6 p.m., the game also will air on KTXH (Channel 20) as part of Channel 20’s 13-game Rockets package.
Much has been made of the Rockets not facing the other teams at the top of the Western Conference standings during their 19-game winning streak, but they also have not faced the Hawks in Atlanta.
They get their chance tonight, with Tracy McGrady vowing not to become the latest victim of the Hawks’ home court.
“They’ve beaten some good teams,” McGrady said. “Once of these days the streak has to come to an end. It won’t come tomorrow.”
Dallas, Phoenix, Utah, Cleveland, Denver and the Lakers have lost in Atlanta this season. The Rockets have lost each of their past three games they have played in Philips Arena.

It isn’t exactly tourist money that’s the prime attraction. It’s government spending, new infrastructure and for China prestige. The tourist revenues are like an added bonus.

Pretty self-centered post. I believe as a whole hundreds of millions of people under the Chinese government are being fucked in many unbelievable ways. If you’re going to make an actual point why not just post a topic in favor of an egalitarian world community? China isn’t the only country where there are problems. If you truly favor freedom, nationalism should not be part of your agenda.

Exactly. Anyone who has been to Tibet knows that many Tibetans have moved to India and mainland China, and Han Chinese have moved to Tibet. Lhasa, the capital city, has a much higher Chinese population than Tibetan.

Let the world watch the Olympics with the same eye as it uses to watch Tibet now.
