    I just purchased using the above promo code too. My husband reassured me I can watch all 30 teams just in case Rockets traded JLin.

    Do you know if it is save to purchase it with a VPN from Egypt or India? Would I have to use the VPN every time I watch a game?

    It sounds like you need faster Internet connection.

    for International League Pass - I was able to replay all the regular games last season until about mid-summer.

    I'm glad the promo code worked for you. ;) You can download NBA Game Time app for your phone and IPad, too.

    Yes, we'll be able to watch JLin all the time. :grin:

    Not sure what you mean by "if given a chance."

    He started every game last year and averaged 32 minutes per game. I thought he did a pretty good job last year, and I expect him to improve this year. I don't see the Rockets reducing his role, so I think he will get a chance once again to show what he can do. It's just up to him to do it.

    Maybe not so much in Houston, but check out crowds at NBA games all around the country and what you see is a fanbase which is predominantly upwardly-mobile young white people (i.e. yuppies); the kind of people who are able to pay $200 for a ticket and the kind of people who overall relate better to an educated, clean-cut guy from Harvard like Lin than a bearded black guy from the streets of LA like, say, Harden. Most season ticket holders are highly educated white people with money. There is even a surprising number of fans who get offended by the presence of tattoos on players. Lin is squeaky clean, he's from Harvard, smiles always, and he gives good interviews...and that means publicity. It doesn't matter how well he can play. It's sad that in this day in age people still view things at face value, but sometimes they do. Anyway it's not surprising that Lin is on the front page of League Pass.

    If anyone wants to save a lot of greens, purchase BallStreams (www.ballstreams.com) before October 1st, to get all 30 team coverage + playoff coverage for all 16 teams for only $59.99!

    With NBA LP, it's too limited, and you have to mess with proxy/hotspotshield/blah blah to make sure you get no blackouts/restrictions.

    Good luck everyone, hope whatever happens, you get to watch our Rockets!

    Last year League Pass had a special deal where you could watch all the preseason games. I hope they do that again this year. :grin:

    What about RIO Grande Valley area (where viper's home court)? will CSN black it? it would be ridiculous if they do, since we don't even have CSN here.

    I would disagree a bit. For me, he showed the true spirits of any sports: work hard and wait for the opportunity to come. I lost interests in NBA for a long time until the emerge of Jeremy Lin.

    I agree that he will have a big season because he will be given his chances however for him to be really BIG, the Rockets as a TEAM need to have a really BIG season :)

    I have been a customer of NBA League Pass for the past 11 years because they have allowed me to watch almost all of the Rockets games via live tv, streaming, and archives even though I am not a Houstonian or Texan. They should provide their customers access to watch previous years archived games and during the off season.
