    There was an issue tonight with the "North America - East" server, as it was lagging a lot, but I just switched it to "North America - Central" and all was well.

    I literally just hit the stream to chromecast button. I've done it in the past and it lagged a bit, so I was expecting it. Maybe I just got lucky.

    Can someone please tell if they have used apple airplay with this service through an iphone and Apple TV ?

    If it works well and is simple to set up id be willing to purchase an Apple TV to be able to do it, I have wanted one for a while anyways.

    I want to buy for the season, will the site be up all year? Don't want to pay and be stuck holding my dick if the site gets taken down or anything, this thing is legit?

    I believe they said they are outside of the NBA's jurisdiction which is why they can do this with no problems.

    I would think if a mega corp like the NBA really wanted to come after you though the way money works, it would be hard to stop them...IMO

    Their sister hockey site hocketstreams.com has been up for 7+ streams.
    I don't see ballstreams ever shutting down?

    I just registered and am experiencing lag with the archived games on my Roku. I'm assuming I'll have to watch via my laptop. I have Chromecast as well but it's generally the laggiest of all options.

    Any tips?

    I don't know about Roku, but Ondemand streaming has been iffy for Chromecast. Live streaming seems to work great for me. Check with your laptop to make sure it isn't a wifi issue

    Sorry if this has been addressed already, but if I will be moving to the Philippines mid season. Will I still be able to stream internationally from Manila?

    This is true. There are a few international members on the site and I streamed from Dubai towards the end of last season.

    As long as you have a decent internet connection, you should be good to go.

    the new TV deal that was just signed grants a bunch of rights to broadcast NBA games online worldwide. It's only a matter of time before this gets shut down IMO. Not this year, but I anticipate that once the new tv deal takes effect that this site will be in great danger.

    just re-upped. fyi, if you have a ps4 you can watch the games straight through your browser. just use the mobile feed and it works great. doesn't work on my xbone though.

    Ahhh sweet. So I don't have to get a Apple TV after all (rather wait until the 2+ year current one is updated)

    So you just go on the browser of your ps4 and then mobile feed? So you are saying that pick the option that you would use for a cell phone and it works on the tv? How is the quality?
