    Yes, I forgot to mention another cool thing about League Pass is that you see the arena live feed instead of commercials.

    I have not had any problems with NordVPN either.

    I have had issues with the NBA League Pass app not being able to play a game on an Ipad and FireTV but not with iPhone or PC.

    I'm not messing around with any apps because it's been finicky in the past.

    I think I'm going to do this for the upcoming season. I tried just finding streams... which is OK. But not as good.

    I think you only need the VPN to login, then you should be able to turn it off. Which might get rid of the lag.

    Remember that you won't get ESPN , TNT, NBA TV games live. You can watch them 3 hours after they finish. I use a friend's Comcast account to stream those games. (Can't stream Root away from the home address.)

    Geez. I don't give a fuck anymore. Lucky for me, I'll be in NYC next season. I'll be able to watch all the Blazers games on League Pass.

    That makes a lot of sense, $25 a month is very reasonable.

    Could get SlingTV with NBATV for the rest of the channels. Or just watch those games at a bar/friends/etc.
