    Not sure how others feel but i'm considering it now that the rockets have proven they are a decent team. Also this whole week is free.

    $60 for LP online / 6 teams..definitely worth it.

    What is the easiest way to go about getting it? I hear it is the ultimate hassel with very poor customer service.

    You mean League Pass, or League Pass Broadband? For LP, your cable company will turn it on within seconds. For LPB, nba.com is an immediate online purchase.

    Never had a hassle.

    Even LPB's customer service has always been available during game days. Only call them when games are being played throughout the league. Not during the middle of the day.

    Only the Houston games. If you live in Houston, you watch Rockets on FoxSW and buy LP if you want to watch the rest of the league.

    Actually, the hassle you might be hearing about is purchasing LP from your cable company and activating the broadband service from nba.com. The full LP comes with broadband access. I forget how you activate the broadband service when you purchased the full LP from your cable provider.

    You go onto NBA.com https://audience.nba.com/services/m...0017089A1F419A0D80B033?_flowExecutionKey=e1s1

    and enter your SAT/CAB service provider and account number. You must be logged on to NBA.com though (have a login)

    The hassle shows up when you try and unsubscribe at the end of the season. If you don't, you no longer control when you pay again for the next year. After the season is over they make you wait a bit before you can cancel your subscription. Cancelling the subscription is a pain in the ass and about as unintuitive as they can make it.

    I will no longer subscribe on principle as I do not agree with their practices of auto-renewal and account management, which I view as shady and bordering on unethical.

    Tempting. I'll decide sometime this week. My income improved significantly last month.

    Ya, so my name isn't on the cable bill. So I'd have to give my roommate money for the games, then they would have to cancel at the right time. Also would he have to start a username on NBA.com to match his cable bill? Still sounds like a pain but I was archiving the Philly game today and seeing HD Rocket games for under 2$ bucks a game sounds DREAMY.
