Watching NBA TV Live without using a VPN and listening to Kenny Smith being an idiot 
Business as normal
Business as normal
NBA 2013/2014 Season!
- Thread starter Psymonkee
- Start date
Seems to be working on my phone - just started watching the playback of the Rockets/Pacers game! Never used to work on mobile data - always insisted on Wifi!
I did not! Was watching/listening to the Rockets/Magic game then I passed out....damn sleep! Shall check the highlights later
Ouch! I feel your pain! 2006/7 season repeat? 
Well they still have Rondo but not sure if he can do it alone or without Doc guiding him and keeping his attitude in check....
Is 18 still the record losing streak?
Secondary teams are always fun to watch
Wolves, Bobcats (can we just call them the Hornets already?!) and Cavs for me this year I think Will always happily watch a Spurs game too!
In other news the finals have now been switched back to a 2-2-1-1-1 format like all the preceding rounds!

I bet the Nuggets are laughing themselves to sleep having dealt Nene away - turned out to be distinctly average now I come to think of it!
Sixers have cut 3 players including the 2nd year Royce White who has yet to play a minute in an actual NBA game.....
Never really followed College Ball. I should really as it seems to be more exciting than the NBA at times!
The HD streaming on both PC and Xbox actually looks very good (more so on the xbox) but there was a stuttering problem last year where the stream would run in slow motion for a moment and then be followed up with double speed to catch the live stream! Often quite hilarious but mostly annoying. Was ironed out by seasons end.
Oddly that problem wasn't present on the PC version!
The league pass has a free trial right now so give it a try - it might surprise you. Only thing I would suggest is that if you watch it do NOT keep up with the game on Twitter as well as I spoiled the result of game 6 of the finals last year since the stream runs ~1 min behind the broadcast it feeds from!
From the little I saw the games were good but by god what a shower of **** with the NBA LP. Again.
Fire it up on the xbox so I get it on the big screen - all good and start watching the Magic/Pacers game. Looks like Pacers were running away with it so I switched to the Bulls/Heat game and was surprised to see the ring ceremony being shown!
(side note: Using the court as a projector screen = mind blowing!)
Towards the end of the 1st quarter it started buffering quite a lot. The 2nd quarter never showed on the xbox as it claimed the video service wasn't working! I jumped on the PC and everything is fine?!
By halftime I was shattered and crawled to bed phone in hand only to discover that on both 3 (mobile network) and my Wifi (which my PC was on!?) both resulted in a Geo Block message about being in a blackout area!??!
WHAT THE ACTUAL ****?!
Pretty unimpressed it has to be said :/

Haha the Sixers beat the Heat. Not entirely sure they want to with the whole rebuilding phase but it makes a good game
Hell of a debut for Micheal Carter-Williams too!
22 points, 7 rebounds, 12 assists, 9 steals and shot 60%!!
Mental!

You clearly missed the first half of the Rockets game. Utter slog fest - no one could hit a thing!
26 rebounds for Dwight though

The PC quality is passable whilst the xbox stream looks superb in my opinion!
Not tried any apple devices though so no comment there

Aaaand we have our first flopping warning of the season: John Wall
Nice try

Another win for the Rockets last night - very sloppy first half but we managed to pull it back in the 2nd and put Utah away
Sixers are playing out of their minds - at this point I'd say screw the normal 'rebuilding' phase and just go for it!
The draft needs to be changed to stop this stupid tanking nonsense. I'd be in favour of some sort of system of rewarding the teams that just missed the playoffs getting a higher pick but which also excludes them from the following years draft perhaps to stop them consistently scoring top players?
Also while I'm tapping away at the keyboard who do you think will be the the:
Last team to lose their first game? Indiana, Philidelphia, Houston, Minnesota & Phoenix
Last team to win their first game? Boston, Washington, Denver & Utah are still in the running for this!
I'm gonna go with Indiana & Boston!

Yup still unbeaten
Another impressive record by LeBron there too! 500 games works out to what about 6 or 7 seasons? Impressive stuff

Yeah I saw that - so happy that Shaqtin' is back
Missed that - been busy today though and not caught up on last nights action. All I do know is the Rockets escaped with a 2OT win over the Raptors!
