YES HENNY
league pass is mostly decent but educate yourself on the blackout restrictions that are going to impact you--particularly west of the mississippi league pass is notorious for some very illogical blackouts.

you can use a vpn to sign up for international league pass and bypass blackouts. apparently honduras is the cheapest option

russ is 1 for 7 from the floor against... the wizards
― Clay, Thursday, 31 October 2019 01:48 (four years ago) link
the nets defence will continue to suck while they persist in starting harris, taurean prince, deandre and kyrie
― micah, Thursday, 31 October 2019 01:49 (four years ago) link
the wizards are shooting 65% from the floor which seems notable

hmmm -- well i don't have cable and i live in new mexico which doesn't have an nba team for at least 400mi, so i'd assume that only the nationally televised ones wouldn't ever be available?

Bucks straight up getting run off the court in the 2nd half
― frogbs, Thursday, 31 October 2019 01:52 (four years ago) link
brian windhorst, one of the 5 most important nba journalists working today, has regularly documented his issues having games in denver blacked out on league pass from his home in omaha, a city without an nba team that is over 500 miles from denver.
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 31 October 2019 01:53 (four years ago) link
yeah new mexico is probably in someone's blackout area, maybe denver, maybe dallas, maybe phoenix, maybe all 3

exactly--i'm just saying try to figure out what you're in for before you drop the cash

i love this spread lineup of sabonis + four shooters

Aw rats Maybe NBA TV would be better
― gbx, Thursday, 31 October 2019 01:58 (four years ago) link
i think if ur gonna be at home watching on ur laptop primarily it makes the most sense to just stream illegally
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 31 October 2019 01:59 (four years ago) link
no blackouts and the user experience isn't vastly worse than what people say about league pass
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:00 (four years ago) link
...go on xp

kemba now completely roasting the bucks. the celtics have really been scrambling for the whole second half, fantastic effort up and down the rotation.
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:01 (four years ago) link
best internet only league pass experience is youtube tv + league pass, really solid platform dvr all the national games, and if youre cheap u can get 5 friends to split it w u via family plan

― lag∞n, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:06 (four years ago) link
yeah game is pretty nuts celtics just didnt show up in the 1st half bucks ripping them up as usual then in the second half they just decided to play gritty n good and have destroy the bucks
giannis madd lol

Yeesh Russ looks like absolute trash. 1st time I've seen him this season.
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:10 (four years ago) link
yeah wow what the heck happened
i guess the brad era celtics have almost always played their ass off in the second half but i'm still never used to it
― ciderpress, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:11 (four years ago) link
i was listening to a pod earlier today which noted that kemba is a terrible matchup for the bucks conservative defense and yeah they really didn't do a lot to bother him in the second half
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:11 (four years ago) link
this game had IT era vibes but with better players :]
― lag∞n, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:12 (four years ago) link
Celtics very watchable this season I’m into it.
― de-mamba mentality (Spottie), Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:12 (four years ago) link
down by 19 won by 11
they also did that with only 10 guard minutes off the bench. semi, grant will, and rob will were almost the entire bench.
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:14 (four years ago) link
yeah no jaylen who shd be pretty key to that matchup
― lag∞n, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:15 (four years ago) link
omg it's 146-136 in washington dc with 4 and a half minutes left

Kyrie ruins teams
― de-mamba mentality (Spottie), Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:21 (four years ago) link
Also I would be so happy if the IT2 return to form is real
i know i have hated on chris paul a lot over the years and i will continue to do so until he retires, but watching a guy of his basketball genius play with a bunch of mostly garbage teammates is rough stuff
― Clay, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:22 (four years ago) link
kyrie having the best scoring run of his career to start the season, nets are 1-3
― lag∞n, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:23 (four years ago) link
i think one of the problems with kyrie is he """disrupts""" offenses teams have to remake everything around his v particular skills & total ball dominance and idk maybe that's just not fun working with a guy like that esp if he's a moody prick
― Clay, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:26 (four years ago) link
the thing about the nets is that their best three players this season are on-ball guards
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:26 (four years ago) link
and one of those three guards is so ball-dominant that the other two aren't going to get much run
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:27 (four years ago) link
yeah doesnt seem like a great fit
― lag∞n, Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:29 (four years ago) link
oh shit the nats just went up and the whole wiz arena is going nuts

until the new players on the blazers start to coalesce as a team, I expect to see dame on fire in the 4th regularly
― A is for (Aimless), Thursday, 31 October 2019 02:32 (four years ago) link
i am watching the world series now and can confirm that the nats have gone up
