Why are the olympic basketball games to early?

Question

I want to watch them but the next USA game is like at 9 in the morning...

Answer 1

well quit being lazy and get up and watch them haha

and because in china that would be 9 at night

Answer 2

so you think they should play in the middle of the night just so YOU are not inconvenienced by the time they play

there is a lot of the world besides the USA & everything does not revolve around you yanks

Answer 3

On the east coast the next game is at 2am live. The ad was just on.

Answer 4

Morning in the U.S. is night in China.  There is an exactly 12 hour difference between the east coast of the U.S. and China, so things that are happening in the morning here are happening in primetime over there.

Answer 5

Someone is the target audience for it live, but who that audience is is anyone's guess
