I do think having the Eclipse Awards dinner tonight is a rather poor choice. It is a National Holiday as well as a huge day for the NBA. Every team plays today beginning at 1pm. It is their big day in mid season. There are also many big college basketball games scheduled today. If they had just pushed it until Tuesday, they would get more coverage and would have been more prominent in the sports world.
