If you didn't have any plans for tonight before you started reading this sentence, now you do. Here are the best sports on television tonight, and where and when you can watch them. All times Eastern. Follow the links to learn more about each of the teams listed below. Let's get right into it.
↵NCAA Basketball:
↵North Carolina St. Vs. Maryland, 7, ESPN2: Here we go. If Maryland is going to make the NCAA Tournament, they need to win the ACC Tournament. No doubt about it. And that starts tonight, against the Wolfpack of NC State. The Terps beat them when they played last, but that was in front of a home crowd that was all juiced up about Greivis Vasquez getting his jersey retired. Let's see if Gary can coach 'em up without that inspiration.
↵19 UConn Vs. 3 Pitt, Noon, ESPN: Hoops in the morning, hoops in the evening, hoops at supper time. With the Big East Conference Tournament, you can watch hoops anytime. UConn has won in pretty convincing fashion the past two days, and Pitt may be a little rusty coming off a a double bye.
↵NBA Basketball:
↵Lakers Vs. Heat, 7, TNT: So many reasons to watch this one. The Lakers are on a roll, which is fun I guess. The Heat have been struggling, and there's a good chance they might cry. I would loooove to see LeBron and Wade come out trying to do too much, and fail miserably as a result. That's right up there with brown paper packages tied up with string as one of my favorite things.
