    That's awesome if you live in Houston... but when the f*** is NBA League Pass going to start playing games in HD, goddamnit!!!

    This just pisses me off more because now I know that at least half the games that I don't get to see in HD COULD be in HD if League Pass didn't suck so much ass...

    From what I understand, the issue with League Pass is that not all buildings are equipped with HD gear. It's the reason why only home games are guaranteed to be in HD for the Rockets - Toyota Center is rigged for HD.

    Unlike the NFL where they move gear around and have certain network requirements, NBA teams have to provide their own HD equipment and many of them don't have it. Since League Pass takes its feeds from individual local game broadcasts, they are dependent upon the teams to provide an HD feed and, no doubt, it is easier for the NBA to just NOT provide it than to provide it only for a handful of games and then have to explain why the others don't get it.

    Mine is 7.99 as well, but I don't think anyone would be surprised if the rates magically went up while we weren't looking.
