Damn, I picked a bad time to go to Cancun.

A ticket to Thursday's Lakers game.
A ticket to Sunday's Kings game.
Now, THIS.

MAN!

wow, is this only on directv or us lowly dish network users get it too?

Shame on all of you for not already having it!!!

And KG, I dont think this means you get the Seattle game. No matter if the Mavericks play on the road or at home, I have not had one single instance in which their games werent blacked out on League Pass... Luckily every game has been televised so far on either local stations, FSSW, or TNT/ESPN. Now it may be different if you live far enough away from DF/W, but not for me!!!

I have NBA League Pass and I am upset that it doesn't come with NBATV. Apparently Comcast does not have a deal setup for us to view it. It seems like most of the good games are on NBATV, and some of them in High Def. Comcast better add some more HD channels (like HDNET) and NBATV or I might have to go with Satellite instead.

I'm never buying Leage Pass again. This is the second time they've given away free games when i can't even get all the games i payed for. I feel violated.

Ironicly before Comcast bought out AT&T Cable I was able to watch NBATV for free. Now that Comcast is in charge I can't get NBATV even if I was willing to pay 10X the going rate.

When I got League Pass they couldn't even tell me from the league office which games I should be getting in "my" market. Naturally, the first time the mavs weren't on my local cable channels do you think I could get the Mavs, even though I live 6 and a half hours from the arena? Noooo. "Sorry, you're local."

[b]Do not waste your money on League Pass [b] unless you like paying big money to watch every team but the one you paid to see. Those you can't have.

Actually, I live about 1300 miles from the arena, but that's not my issue. I don't get NBATV. They shouldn't cheat the people who pay for their services.

And I'll watch any east team since they come on earlier than the West team. So Dallas isn't the only team i watch.

maybe someone in cancun will have direct tv. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img])

If you have cable and local stations, you will get to see pretty much every Mav game. Either ESPN/ESPN2, TNT, NBATV, FSSW, or local stations will pick up the game. Regarding why to get League Pass with the knowledge that Mavs wont be on there, I dont think I should really have to debate this... I LOVE basketball. My favorite team is the Mavericks, but I LOVE to watch basketball. NBA League Pass is for people that want to see BASKETBALL... If all you do is root for the Boys, Stars, Mavericks, and Rangers, these type of subscriptions are NOT for you. I couldnt come to a board like this and spout off about other players/teams/sports if I didnt mold my knowledge by actually WATCHING these players/teams/sports play!!!

Anyway, I recommend it FULLY... On boring nights at home, when the Mavs dont play, it is GREAT to get to watch KG or LeBron or ENTER YOUR FAVORITE PLAYER/TEAM HERE!
