    ^ Dude are you sure they played all the preseason games last season? I've had League Pass for 3 years now and they've almost never shown preseason games from the Rockets.

    I have Dish Network, didn't make it home in time for the Rockets game, but did noticed they're showing all of the other pre season games on NBA TV... so maybe it's free preview. I had the league pass last season, but haven't sign up for it this season yet...

    I got to see the Rox game last night on NBA TV and a bunch of other preseason games on the other NBA League Pass channels. I'm pretty sure it's on NBA League Pass for us tonight.

    This is my 6th season with NBALP on DIRECTV. They show very few pre-season games. Occassionally, LP will show a game they don't even list on their schedule. But I have only encountered a small percentage of pre-season games on LP/DIRECTV/nba.com.

    I think it's the Dish Network that shows the pre-season games on the LP channels.

    I've had league pass for several years now and almost never get to see a pre-season game. Last nights game was the first pre-season Rockets game I can remember seeing in a couple of years.

    Guys.

    League pass is different:

    1. Cable league pass shows no preseason or very few
    2. Direct TV league pass shows select preseason games
    3. Dish Network shows almost all preseason games.

    It is all league pass, but the provider chooses which to show.

    Man, this blows. League Pass should be the same on ALL PLATFORMS. Basically, if you got cable, you're screwed. If you got DirecTV, you see only the ones those lazy program operators want you to see. Now if you've got DISH, you can watch everything plus the Power Dancers changing in the locker room. This is messed up!

    This is my first year away from houston and my first year with league pass. Has anyone ever missed a rockets game with the "whole up to 40 out of market games a week gimmick?" I have time warner cable, Austin.

    You will get all the games except the Spurs games which will be blacked out, but most of the time the Rockets v. Spurs is picked up Nationally or locally....probably miss one or 2 games max.
