They’ve never changed their clock. IN used to be in the same boat but then pretended to still be in the eastern time zone during DST confusing everything. Then they voted to stay eastern all the time and have been bitter about it since.

I don't know about y'all, but i've seen enough!

The Lakeshow is back, We got Elgin coming back in two weeks, We picked up Cooper and West from the mid cities(no disrespect) to compliment Wilt and we got undrafted Goodrich/Byron coming off the bench to put up clinics. Only the injury gods and Phoenix can stop us from getting this ring. *knocks on wood*.

Because NBA season is 82 games, the net rating is better correlated with their performance than say NFL which is only 17(mostly 16 in prev season), so in NFL it's entirely possible for a team to win 60%/10 games and still have negative net rating but once you pass like halfpoint/42 games in NBA team that win 60%/26 games out of 42 will have positive net rating (not always though, the better benchmark is somewhere around 60 games, this is when team starts blatantly tanking as they can get clear picture of their position in the draft)

DST is temporary. If businesses were willing to change their hours multiple times a year you wouldn’t need DST. If you made a permanent change to your time zones businesses would change hours accordingly - permanently. It’s not rocket science.

Yes, because it’s just temporary. That’s the point. If it were permanent then business hours would be set appropriately. If you decided to shift the clock by 4 hours in your state do you think businesses would open up 4 hours before sunrise?
