I'm in Beijing this week and I want to watch the rockets game on a real TV and not my computer. Where do I go.
If CCTV 5 sucks so much just don't watch it. For me somtimes that's the only way I can watch rockets on TV so it is all good.
Most Rockets games will be on both CCTV5 and ESPN. CCTV5 is available everywhere in Beijing. ESPN is available in most hotels that accommodate foreigners.
I'm in Beijing, but I really think that the announcers of CCTV-5 are not very good at broadcasting, I watched most games online using sopcast or others in stead of watching CCTV-5 on TV.
Heh, I watch games on CCTV-5 using Sopcast (just cuz there's no better way to go......) but I must agree the announcers are atrocious. I think one major problem is there is no real play by play guy, the person you usually hear in the flow of the game. Some how, it just doesn't seem right to me. It sounds more like two friends talking about the game rather than hearing professional commentators.
where do i watch the game in London? i havn't seen any bars that broadcast NBA games yet. anyone know?
well,if you think cctv5 sux enough, just mute your audio channel. you dont have to tell the whole wold like this.
Try this place, its a pretty cool bar. Durty Nellie's Irish Pub 11A South Sanlitun, Beijing 6502-2808 Cross St: Dongsanhuan Beilu

Some hotels and apartments may have ESPN asia. I am in London and watched the Yankees-Redsox game on ESPN asia on my computer. If you get lucky you might have that channel on your TV.
