What we're
watching: The NBC Thursday night tour continues with new episodes, you know the drill. In NBA
Playoffs action the Bulls, Suns and Pacers all want to keep playing, while the Heat, Lakers and Nets don't, we'll see
who comes out on top there (BTW, if you missed LeBron's tightrope walk down the baseline -- not a travel -- for the win
last night, you have no one to blame but yourself).We'll be checking out boxing on ESPN-HD tonight, as Sergio Mora takes on some guy whose name we won't even try to pronounce, hope he can fight.
Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

Finally sat down and saw Discovery HD for the first time last night. Watched http://dhd.discovery.com/tvlistings/episode.jsp?episode=3&cpi=115644&gid=0&channel=DHD and my god it was sick.
I didn't pay the extra $9 a month for the HD package (Time Warner Cable) which nets me only 5 or so more channels in HD, among them ESPN -HD). I don't get to watch enough TV to justify the additional expenditure. I may have to spring for it once Monday Night Football starts...
