The NBA announced several scenarios for a time should a Saturday Game 7 of the Hawks-Pacers series become necessary. The game will air nationally on TNT at either 5:30, 7 or 8 p.m. SportSouth will broadcast the game locally.

* If Game 7’s are also necessary in the Thunder-Grizzlies and Clippers-Warriors series, the Hawks-Pacers would start at 5:30 p.m.

* If a Game 7 is also necessary in only the Thunder-Grizzlies series, the Hawks-Pacers would start at 7 p.m.

* If Game 7 is also necessary in only the Clippers-Warriors series, the Hawks-Pacers would start at 8 p.m.

The Eastern Conference semifinal matchup between the Hawks-Pacers winner and the Wizards will begin Monday. Those games would not be broadcast by local networks.
