    I couldn't fine the game on Fubo either. Frustrating for sure. I ended up watching on BlazerVision.
    That one month of Fubo you paid would almost cover the entire cost of BlazerVision for the season.

    Loved watching the game on broadcast TV last night. Old school baby. Nice to see Camara get the start.

    Almost got a Green toss.....almost.....

    The antenna was fine last night. It cut out a couple times but overall the quality was fine and the cost was very low. I like it.

    Only bummer is that I can't pause or record :lol:

    Grabbed blazer vision and other than having to watch through the nba app on my tablet it worked okay. Wish they had an actual app I could download to my television as that would be a much better viewing experience… half baked execution but at least it was high definition

    Sat next to a Pistons fan who was in town for a conference. I said see that right there...Sheed woulda been instantly ejected.

    If you have a moderately new TV you should be able to cast the game from the tablet app to the tv.

    If you can download apps to your TV, I’d assume is is a SMART TV……if it’s a SMART TV, you should be able to screen mirror it from your tablet/phone to it?

    The team sucks. I'll watch them if they're on a regular channel, but I ain't buying a subscription to see these scrubs. I'd rather watch something enjoyable.

    ***ALERT***


    Found out last night, when i went to install the nba app on my samsung tv, that samsung does not allow nba league pass app. I cant even cast it to the tv from my phone.

    I read up on it last night and there are pages and pages pf complaints on samsung website about this with no answer or resolution.

    I think its fair to say every member of this forum is at minimum a Blazer fan, if not an NBA fan.
    I tell you all now….

    DONT BUY A SAMSUNG TV!!!!

    See if you can cast to a Chromecast or a Firestick or load the NBA on them.

    Don't buy a smart TV expecting it to be smart. In fact, don't even hook the damned thing up to your internet.

    Get yourself a Nvidia Shield ($199) or an onn box from Walmart ($25 & $50). Or go with a Chromecast or fire stick from Amazon and use that as the smarts of your TV (I'm not 100% sure how well Apple TV works for this, But I assume it would be fine).

    TVs should just be monitors.

    It just depends on the kind of TV you have. Some TVs have Google TV or Android TV built in. Those will be able to install the NBA app. If yours doesn't have the ability to install an NBA app then buy yourself an on box from Walmart or a fire stick or Chromecast. Those should all have the NBA app and you should be able to plug it in to your HDMI on your TV.

    Yeah FUBO does not seem to carry the games. Luckily I got my family a PS5 earlier this year and am able to get Blazervision through that since our main TV is a Samsung. What a run around.

    I'm hearing that Blazer games should be on Fubo starting tonight or Sunday.
    KATU is still negotiating with DirecTV.

    ya that’s kinda like I think too. If I got BlazersVision I could watch on a tablet on the go but why should I pay for another subscription just to watch these guys stink it up?

    Again, it wouldn't be so bad if it was just the young guys. But I don't need to see Ant and Grant dominating the game and bricking a bunch of bad shots.
