Can someone just tell me what time the men's Olympic basketball game is on?
I'd like to watch the game between the USA and Lithuania live. I've searched several websites including NBC which says it's 08/22 at 22:15PM. Huh? Is that Beijing time or U.S. time? What's with the PM? USA Network has it sometime between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. Why does this have to be so complicated???
Can someone just tell me what time I can watch LeBron and Co. play tonight (or this morning, or whatever!)

ESPN's NBA front page seems to second the 10:15 AM start time listed on the SI link above (and they both say vs Argentina, which I also assume is correct).
I think the HD basketball-only Olympic channel will list actual start times for upcoming games in between broadcasts, so that makes it a little more convenient. But yeah, it can be pretty frustrating trying to figure all this out sometimes.

keep in mind it may be tape delayed in your time zone, if past games are any precedent. The USA-China game was live at 10Am EST, but was delayed here in L.A. until 10am PST, 3 hours later.
Any yeah, they're playing Argentina.

You are living in a parallel universe where the US plays Lithuania next. The real game is vs. Argentina at 10:15AM ET, August 22nd.
