    I would think the number of people who steam shit would be somewhere near zero.

    I’m 70 and I stream the Blazers on League Pass. Pisses me off that that option isn’t available to anyone anywhere who’s willing to pay for a subscription. I know the cable companies would collapse overnight, but that’s inevitable anyway.

    ahh that makes sense. I just never thought of it that way because i suppose we stream everything then. But in my head i still differentiated you tube and internet websites from netflix and the like.

    Ill sign that list. When game action is on, the live camera should only be on the court and nothing but the court, so help me truth.

    Were not seeing it like they are. But anytime you aren't watching comcast tv, you are streaming, it seems like.

    Doesn’t it seem like we miss most every instance where the offense is starting their possession after a made basket, and the other team steals the ball on the inbounds pass and scores?
    The broadcast absolutely has to show the guy who just scored running up the floor instead. Why, I don’t fucking know. I guess people want to see him raise 3 fingers or whatever some players do.
    I just saw this on the Laker game with Russell making a three, and then they have to do a closeup of his reaction. The next time we see the ball it’s crossing mid-court.

    Yes.

    I could watch the games. And I think all Blazer fans should be able to watch the games.

    That's why I made this thread when I saw what the Suns were doing.

    People under 50 stream the shit out of stuff. Nobody else. I’ve been in in these meeting and zooms where they break it down. Not as many people steam LIVE content as you think.

    More people can watch the games in ROOT than Comcast/NBCSports whatever it was called. It’s a fact. A TON more actually. We already went thru this, go find that thread for the facts.

    But that’s not Blazers broadcasting. How can that be? Ohhhhh, it’s how EVERYONE CUTS A FUCKING GAME!?! That’s the standard, not just Blazers broadcasting. People get out there and check other shows, please. Been saying this for years. Spurs show looks like it’s put on by blind monkeys….. and those are my friends. Orlando looks like they have HS kids in the studio.

    Shit watch our “world feed broadcast” at the Olympics…. We miss plays all the time for super slo mo emotion shots of fans and players…. And that shit is sent around the globe. Broaden your viewership…. You’ll learn a thing or two maybe.

    Seems to me streaming is likey a geographical answer. I bet most people in metro areas who have access to quality cable dont stream as much as though outside of cable viewership.

    The only other option is a dish or to stream. I didn't want a dish on my house so we stream. Im willing to bet more and more folks outside of the cable tree, streams their programs.
