    Let's make sure our players get sufficient rest. I don't want any of our players going above 21-22 minutes.

    I was actually watching on the channel that would normally host the games. So like for the Rockets game, it was FS Houston. For the Celtics game, well that was NBAtv. For the Trailblazers game it was Comcast SportsNet Northwest. etc.

    The LP channels were there, but not listed as "channels I get".

    No there are three different channels. What happened last time was during the time frame when the game started FS Houston became active.

    Unless you get it all the time as a local network 678 (FS Houston) will only be active with league pass.

    No it shows the Directv logo and music until the time that the pregame starts. Then it comes on.

    There was some confusion last time because it stopped when the game started but halfway through the first half it came on.

    I read somewhere on the internet that NBA LP free preview will be available from Oct 10 on dtv. I suspect dtv refers to cable providers such as comcast or time warner etc. So LP free preview may be available on comcast starting from Oct 10.

    for those who have Dish Network and are Out of Towners the game will be on channel 562 and in HD!!

    at least that was the case late last night before I went to bed.

    also i dont think the free preview shows all the preseason games i wasnt able to watch the blazers/warriors game last night i kept looking for it. if they pick and choose like 4-5 preseason games i am glad they keep choosing the rockets!

    hopefully clyde decides to shave tonight

    You won't be able to see any NBA games on those channels unless you live in Houston and get FSN Houston. The cool thing about the sports pack is that you get all the regional college games nationwide all season long! If your a college fan, it's well worth the extra $10 per month.
