    Let the media keep slighting us. Keep that fire burning inside the heart of Houston.

    God, I want to destroy these Lakers. I want to crush them like little bugs. I want Yao to average 36 and utterly dominate Pau and Bynum. I want Brooks to slice em up. I want Kobe to shoot 28% for the series and be hounded harassed and harangued until he can't think straight.

    Growl. I'm so ready for a home playoff game, I can taste it. Just win tomorrow night Rockets, and brush your shoulders off.

    Aww come on. I live two hours away from Houston, I don't have NBA TV, and I'm sick so I can't go to a sports bar or anything.

    Damn it :(

    Hopefully theres an internet feed.

    I really, really hope they take the Houston feed so I can hear Bill Worrell and Clyde... Being outside of Houston, it is a bonus when I get to watch games with local coverage.

    That will almost be worth the trade-off for not being able to watch it in HD...

    My game 3 tickets just came in...... :D Rockets should keep playing with a chip on their shoulder since the national media hates them, maybe another blowout in favor of the rockets will make people notice???

    How is NBA TV a national program? If it isn't on a cheap motel room tv / college dorm room tv, it's not national. Sorry.

    ATDHE.net it is, I guess.

    NBATV is in HD on DISH Network, but My20HD isnt(only low def my20). Keep wishing we can trade My20HD for CW39HD since both are fringe channels and my20 has the local sports.

    I'm hoping I can watch it. We have the League Pass with DirecTV, which gets you NBATV. However, when I had Dish Network, they used to shut it off during the playoffs, because League Pass only covers the regular season, not pre-season or post-season. We had to order some FoxSports package to watch 1 game on NBATV.

    I checked it out yesterday, and I still have access to the channel. I guess we'll see tomorrow night...

    I have Comcast in Chicago. Does anyone know if Comcast lets you purchase NBATv on a monthly basis? I don't want to have to pay more than $5 for only being able to watch this one game.

    That's very lame. I live in Austin and don't have NBA TV. Hopefully it's online somewhere.

    My20 is a better place to watch the games anyways, but yeah its on NBATV. NBATV isn't really that bad, I think they are going to have their own commentators for this (like they did last year).

    If you have Comcast in Houston, my20 HD is channel 304. Some people got to watch the first game on 304. I couldn't because for some unexplained reason it was blank at my house. I watched Comcast channel 4 instead. Someone at the water cooler today said it looked like channel 304 was using the same ESPN HD cameras.

    For those of you that have Comcast and are not in Houston --

    I just called Comcast here in Chicago and they offer the Sports Package (which includes NBA TV for $7.99/month AND they will prorate it for you). So all I had to pay was the $1.99 activation fee and [($7.99/30)*1 day] which is only $2.26 total. Not bad.

    Whats funny is that I'm sure Yao generates a lot more revenue for the NBA than either of them
