    That cant be true. DirecTV carries all games. Do you live in Portland and are blacked out?

    Missed the first 5 minutes of the game with technical difficulties..the issue was with the philly broadcast which it was supposed to be I think...they switched to blazers feed. I'm in LA.

    Game two and once again the Blazers only get one designated channel, and it's not in HD. What the fuck is going on? Last night I sorta gave them a pass because there were 12 games. Tonight though, there are only 5


    Bullshit

    I cant figure out how in this day and age that all the NBA League Pass games arent in HD. That is just plain stupid. So frustrating last night to deal with BS technical issues that only to have the feed be in standard def.

    yeah, i've been considering cutting off my cable all together....kind of a ripoff for shit I don't really watch ALL That often...only thing keeping me is NBA shit, everything else I can watch on hulu or whatever. $900 a year + $170 for NBA league pass.

    If I get HD, I have to sign a 2 year contract I believe and get a new dish installed. blah.

    The preseason games weren't blacked out on DirecTV league pass. I wonder if I'll be able to watch the game tonight on there without a blackout?

    I'd do the same if my cousin wasn't staying with me. Don't want to nerd out on him.
