    Instead of persecuting the inevitable rulebreakers, they could be like MLB and you know, actually offer a good streaming product. League Pass is ****, absolutely not worth the money. I got out ASAP. MLBTV all the way baby.

    I used International League Pass for like the last 2 months of the regular season, and it worked fine for me

    will probably use it again if I can...the India version looks insanely cheap

    Grumble, grumble, grumble...

    Honestly though over the past year or so it was getting harder and harder to find a stable stream which resulted in me just not watching games. Sorry NBA not buying your BS service.

    It's hard, because as an NBA league pass subscriber I'm annoyed. The service they offer is crap. Random ass blackouts, I have to put up with Players Only ****, and sometimes streams flat out don't work. I don't want to use any illegal streams, but not sure what to do. Then, when these illegal streams dry up, we are left with almost no alternative. Here's to hoping something else comes out soon.

    Sign up for it and use it using a VPN that lets you location spoof would be my guess. Or just don't live in the US.

    the typical way is via a VPN...in my case, I traveled to London for a few weeks during the season so I just bought it then, and it was great

    continued using it when I got back to the states with no issues as well

    That sucks. I’m glad they let the season finish before dropping the hammer.

    I actually paid for full league pass and still used r/nbastreams because their streams were better than the NBA's official product. Isn't that some crap?

    It has nothing to do with paying for content. Explain to me how league pass still streams in 720p (for the past 10 years at least), but yet their prices go up every year. Next, they sell the best games to ESPN and TNT and NBATV, so maybe you get 50 games a year, and none of the best games. Finally, there system screws up about 5 to 10 games a year so of those 50 games, you get to watch 40 of them.
    League pass needs to die a slow and painful death. They are con artists if they think they'll get anymore of my money.

    Lol I remember showing friends the streams over the past few years and everyone used it especially nfl streams for red zone. I would get calls every Sunday on how to get red zone going because they would freak out after clicking the links

    I bought League Pass. And STILL had to use nbastreams. LP has all kinds of blackouts, unavailable primetime games, no playoffs. Then streams that wont work on low bandwidth. So I got maybe 2 of 3 games available on LP.
