    This site is different. It's set up essentially like league pass, except without the blackouts for local games. Great quality on the streams.

    the Blazers organization doesn't care of their fans ... it's 2021 and they switch broadcast providers that offer zero streaming options?! what an incredibly archaic decision.

    Root Sports is widely more available than NBCSNW.
    But yeah, they don't care about fans. Hello! Every team cares about their fans.
    I wouldn't be surprised if Root's streaming options increase here soon because of the Blazers now being in their lineup.

    when more and more people are leaving cable/satellite, removing ANY streaming options but adding satellite is stupid business. not unexpected with this front office.

    Did you read the article? You should.
    More people have cable/satellite than people who stream only.

    100k lost in streaming.

    i question their 500k gained in satellite customers. seems inflated

    TRAIL BLAZERS ANNOUNCE NEW TELEVISION BROADCAST PARTNERSHIP WITH ROOT SPORTS

    Reach to Nearly Double Across Oregon, Washington and Alaska


    PORTLAND, Ore. (June9, 2021) – Today the Portland Trail Blazers announced a new multi-year television broadcast partnership with ROOT SPORTS starting in the 2021-22 season. ROOT SPORTS, a joint venture between AT&T Sports Networks and the Seattle Mariners, will bring Trail Blazers games to more fans than ever before across Oregon, Washington and Alaska. With fans’ accessibility top of mind, this transition will help spread the Trail Blazers roots even farther throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond.


    “We are ecstatic to join the ROOT SPORTS regional network starting next season,” said Chris McGowan, President & CEO, Portland Trail Blazers and Rose Quarter. “With so many other Pacific Northwest teams already in the ROOT SPORTS family and its broad footprint, choosing ROOT SPORTS was the best decision for our fans. We look forward to bringing Trail Blazers games to new viewers, as well as our loyal fans in Oregon, Washington and Alaska.”


    ROOT SPORTS is already the home of our new family members and fellow Pacific Northwest sports teams the Seattle Mariners, Seattle Seahawks, Seattle Kraken, Seattle Seawolves, Gonzaga University Bulldogs, Big Sky Conference and our neighbors the Portland Timbers.


    “The Portland Trail Blazers are a first-class organization, and we are thrilled to add Rip City basketball to our lineup of exciting game action,” said Mark Jorgensen, SVP & General Manager, ROOT SPORTS. “Being the home to one of the best teams in the NBA solidifies ROOT SPORTS as a premier regional sports network in the nation.”

    This seems misleading >> "Reach to Nearly Double Across Oregon, Washington and Alaska"
