    I have chosen three teams so far and need to pick two teams from East.

    -Houston
    -OKC
    -Golden State

    I'm thinking Miami and Indiana but will they be as fun and exciting as Warriors or OKC?

    all those teams have a lot of games on National TV which will be blacked out on League Pass. I guess it doesn't matter if you already have cable TV though.

    Miami and Indiana would be my other choices, but they're going to run away with a lot of games. There's an argument to be made for picking teams who will be playing closer games. Still, I would pick Miami and Indiana.

    Be careful about picking the Rockets if you live in Houston. From what I understand based on the LP trial, you can't watch Rockets games due to the CSN blackout, even away games.

    Personally i'd add Cleveland to the list, nicely built young team IMO plus you can see how Bennett handles himself, along with Kyrie developing into an all-star (maybe)

    Probably go Miami with the last choice, just to watch the mastery of Lebron
    Indiana is pretty boring to watch IMO, Paul george is an exciting player but the offensive scheme is boring

    These are both outside of our conference but apart from Spurs you have most of our direct competition anyway so you should be good

    Yeah. I wish I had cable. I had to watch some Rockets games on crappy third party streams. I live in Austin so local blackout is not a problem.

    Do you like to watch specific young players develop or does it have to be winning teams? If you're open-minded, consider the Pelicans (AD) and Magic (VO and Vucevic).

    I like to see the team winning personally. I thought about Pelicans cause I think Anthony Davis will have a break-out season. But then they are in our division too. Should I just pick Miami and pick a team after the trade deadline? I'm mostly into who's going to win this year's championship. I too think Pacers are going to boring.

    Since it's about following whoever will likely win the championship, you answered your own question about the Heat. If you find the Pacers boring, I assume it's the same with the Bulls and Spurs.

    Maybe add the Clippers as your 5th team.

    76ers and lakers should be interesting. Prob going to run a lot of run and gun offense, expect fast, high-scoring games; should prove exciting.

    Brooklyn's an interesting team but they're so old, they're gonna play very slow paced and methodical. It's not really fun to watch.

    Cavaliers. Kyrie Irving. Come on, easy pick.
    Kings. That team is filled with talent.

    Up to you if you want to pick Miami, but definitely save at least one slot, if not both. I used to always do this when I got LP for broadband. Some team(s) will make trades and become a lot more interesting as the season goes on. Besides, whatever team you choose now just for the sake of choosing, you prob won't watch very often.
