    I'm not having any issues besides maybe once a game I have to change servers. The Cavs/NYK games was crystal clear HD on my TV via Roku. Seems for me the West Coast feed works the best.

    If you have bad internet, don't get ball streams. Plain and simple

    Your question has nothing to do with Ballstreams then--just T Mobile's data coverage? I've watched games on Sprint LTE and they worked great on the reduced quality setting but better with wi-fi. I haven't read of any issues with the mobile site generally though. There is an Android app for mobile viewing as well, though I'm not sure it's better than the browser. Where are you planning on watching games?

    I do that sometimes when i'm away from home. I just use the SD option in the app and the streaming works well. I have TMOBILE.

    I plan to watch games on my phone through tmobiles data. Thanks platypus. Was wondering if the speed will be sufficient.

    Something that helped my choppiness was turning off adblock for the site. It's recommended and there's no ads on the site.

    Definitely can vouch for that, worked me for me too!

    Signed up for a month to try it out and love it, pre-game, half-time and post game show + different feeds (even alternate when it's on ESPN, also playoffs!) + watching all games from last season + being able to watch it anywhere at high speed + skipping is easy.

    Only downside is commercials, but that's it.

    Are you sure you're trying to watch games from yesterday? I've never heard of that problem.

    One question though: what happens when you try to watch a live game and it's already started, can you watch it from the start or will it just JIP?

    Streaming on Chromecast and 0 lag so far through the first half. It is a couple of minutes behind become it has to buffer, but that's not a that big of a deal.
