DENVER — We wouldn’t blame you if you stocked up on popcorn and snacks and planned a comfy spot on the couch to post up all day Sunday with Denver7 on the TV – because it’s a loaded programming lineup.
The Denver Nuggets’ clash with the reigning NBA Champion Boston Celtics tips off on Denver7 at 11 a.m. Sunday. Later in the evening, Hollywood’s biggest night unfolds on our airwaves at 5:30 p.m. MT.
There are a few programming notes to go along with those major broadcasts, too. Denver7 will air a special pregame edition of Denver7 News Weekend Mornings at 9:30 a.m. – shifted from its normal 9 a.m. spot. Joel Osteen will air in the 9 a.m. slot.
The Nuggets are in the thick of a Western Conference Playoff that, as of this writing on Thursday afternoon, had the Nos. 2-10 seeds separated by just nine games. The Celtics held the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference.
