    Do the Rockets games scheduled for Fox Sports Southwest play everywhere Fox Sports Southwest is available? I live in Odessa. I'm about to get cable and FSSW comes with the package. On the Rockets schedule on nba.com they list the FSSW games as "local." Do any of you who live outside Houston get the Rockets games on FSSW?

    I live in Austin, and I get Spurs home games on Fox SW. When I'm in Houston, I get Rockets home games on Fox SW. I don't know about Odessa but it's highly unlikely that you will get Rockets games. It depends on what territory Odessa is in.

    Even if you don't get Rockets games on Fox SW, you can get NBA League Pass (Digital Cable). If not, you can see Rockets home games on TNT/TBS. In Houston, TNT/TBS coverage of the game is blacked out. I believe that tomorrow night's game versus Portland is on TNT at 7PM. People outside Houston can see the game on TNT, but people in Houston have to watch Fox SW.

    I live in the Dallas area and the only Rockets games I get are when they play the Mavs or are on national TV (TNT, TBS, WGN, etc.)
