    i am die hard fan of the rocket and like most of u guys have not missed any game since as far as i can remember, i defend and watch in the good and the bad times that the team has seen

    unfortunately this dec i am going to my country for a month and a half, and i am literally thinking about cancelling my plans since i can't come up with a way to view the games over there. i am going to pakistan for a month and a half and am looking for a way to view the games over there, i know i will have access to the internet, any one know how i could view the games there,
    any ideas are welcome

    please help, i am willing to pay for any service that shows games on the web, i just need to know how to access it if someone knows of a sight

    thanks in advance
    please help

    www.pplive.com.

    As far as I know, almost all ROcket games will be televised by CCTV5 which is a channel that is streamed onto the Net via PPLive

    It is also free

    Sorry you will have to leave Houston hopefully you will be able to watch the Rockets play in your homeland. I remember growing up in SW Houston, many of my childhood friends in my neighborhood were from Pakistan. Good Luck!

    I think because this peer to peer streaming video is a bit new. I didn't hear about it until late last season. But I'll definitely check it out this year. The quality isn't too bad.

    R2K usually does hightlights and whole games (sometimes) on this site by bittorent. If you dont mind watching them a little late, do it like that. He is usually pretty good at getting them a couple of days after. Of course, I wouldn't watch them a day late, this is just a suggestion. Hope everything works out.

    Here's the english link: http://www5.pplive.com/english/index.shtml

    Basically you can either use pplive and watch most of the games live, but in Chinese. Or wait for a day or so and download R2K's highlights/games via Bit Torrent. If you don't know anything about BT, you can check out: http://www.bittorrentguide.co.uk/

    Slightly a bit more complicated. Shouldn't be hard to explain once the time comes. There are a lot of internet geniuses on this site that can walk you through the process, including R2K himself. Trust me, you'll be okay.

    Pakistan Zindabad. Don't cancel your trip. There is so much to see and do in Pakistan. If you visit the beaches in Karachi, tell the PALS lifeguards that Andy said hello. (If they don't know who I am, tell them that I am a friend of Reza)
