OT: Watch your 5 favorite teams

League Pass broadband version comes in two varieties: a $189 package that gives you access to all 30 teams and a $129 “Choice” version that lets you pick five.

I'm going with the "Choice" version. I like USA Today's team recommendations:

What teams would you pick?

 

Portland, Chicago, Detroit (big drummond fan), Indiana, and Houston

 

All of those teams are very watchable but Chicago, Detroit and Indiana are all in the Central conference. I'd like to strategically spread out my picks so I can see more games.

 

You know I would be all over this if they didn't black out the Blazers games.

 

hmmmm, with software like Avast offering VPN's can one just sign up using an out of state billing address (like my sister's) and get all the Blazer broadcasts?

 

I know, I was looking at that after I posted. Maybe replace Detroit with Miami and Chicago with someone like Brooklyn.

I didn't put Lakers or Clippers because I can get them already. Not that I want to see the Lakers; just didn't need them to see the West Coast teams.

 

You're already spending $130.....why not $60 more and get EVERY team!

 

Will this do anything to fix that for LP? I believe they'll be blacked out now with Charter getting the games, leaving us satellite people SOL

Charlotte Horny Cats, Phoenix Gunz, Philadelpha Seventy-Sexers, Boston Selltixs, LA Shaker Maker Picture Takers.

I like my teams raw.

 

Word of advice. Don't pick teams that end up on the national broadcasts or NBA TV. All those games are blacked out. You are better off picking the lower level small market teams.

 

Here's a guide for you guys. I say just spend the extra 60 bucks and watch every team at home/laptop/phone.

Hope this helps.

Wise advice from such an unwise poster.

 

@sekousmithnba thinks Dame is worth the price of the league pass all by himself.

 

Wow that's impressive! Maybe Dame will make the All-star game this season?

 

I'm glad you live in the desert where there are no bridges.......

 

Why? You don't think Dame has a shot at the Allstar game?

P.S. Nothing was more depressing than the game 7 loss to the Lakers. I was at a house filled with Laker fans. If there was ever a time to jump, that would be it.

 

If this was the Leastern conference, definitely. Much harder in the west, though if he goes nuclear they might vote him in.

 

I subscribed on Direct TV. Its $189 but at least I can watch on my TV and all my devices. Letting some of my fam use the online access too.

But if I had to choose 5 teams:

Portland
Cleavland
Hornets
Golden State
Denver

 

And by nuclear I mean Kyrie numbers with a playoff squad.

 

I was on a plane landing at LAX from the Bay Area. As it was landing they announced it on the overhead and the plane went crazy (caught up to the Kobe-Shaq dunk at the airport bar in San Jose). Face = tray table.
