Coordinating Your NBA Schedules

The NBA schedules came out this week so we thought we would simplify your decision-making process on which games to attend during the 2009-10 season.

The Atlanta Hawks and rookie guard Jeff Teague visit the Charlotte Bobcats on Nov. 6 and April 6. You can catch the Chicago Bulls and rookie forward James Johnson in Charlotte on Jan. 7. Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs visit the Bobcats on Jan. 15 while Josh Howard and Dallas come to North Carolina on March 1.

If you're a Deacon football fan and looking to combine a road trip with an NBA game, consider going to Atlanta on November 7. The Deacons visit the Yellow Jackets in football (game time yet to be announced) while Teague and the Hawks host the Denver Nuggets that night.

Or, if you want to make it an all-alumni weekend, book a trip to the French Quarter for Dec. 18-19. You can watch CP3 and the Hornets entertain Denver on Dec. 18 and the next day, watch Chip Vaughn and the Saints host the Dallas Cowboys in the Superdome.
