If anyone wants to get a copy of perhaps the greatest performance by a Maverick ever then go to:

Pontel

That link will take you to last night's game.

how much is 13.50 Euros in Dollars?

Too much. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I was wondering, "How in the heck do they get around the copyright laws?" Then I realized, they're in Europe somewhere, which makes it very difficult for the NBA to sue them and collect.

Does anyone have this game on either DVD or VHS? I would love to get a copy.

try this...

I use Bit Spirit as client. Took me about 3,5 h to download the game (slow DSL). I already downloaded the Miami game couple of weeks ago. Great site...

I have it on VHS... and as a bonus I'll also throw in the Nuggets/Cavs game plus commercials and Inside the NBA after the games.

Nobody can beat this gem of an offer! One time only deal while stock lasts!

What are the copyright laws for NBA games? I know I have the game waiting for my second viewing at home...Tivo fo sho! I'm so glad it was on TNT last night so I could watch it.

Yea I just love Tivo. I love it so much that it stopped right after 2 hours and 30 minutes. The game wasn't even over then.

I wish my PVR could understand when the game is over. When I record from league pass, I get 4 hours, when most games are like 2:30.

Last night, it recorded 2:30 and cut off the entire OT

Hey, kg. Just to clarify something about "bad europeans getting around copyrights" Usually, US copyrights are also protected in Europe (Western Europe) and vice versa. Re Pontel, they are "licensed by the top American sports leagues to distribute complete-game-DVD's of all the league games to customers in Europe, Asia, and Australia" I get a DVD a week from them, which contains a Mavs game and SportCenter week's highlights.

EUR 13.50 = US$ 18.08 US$ took a deep dive since August, September, sorry.

Cheers

EDIT. Btw. I'll get the Houston game next week. If somebody interested in a copy, you know how PM works ;-)

ever since i lost the overtimes of the '03 tennessee-alabama 5 ot'er, i always set my tivo to record an extra hour or more on any sporting event (unless its on league pass, full court, etc. - it records 6 hours for those), just in case.

college basketball is the worst because they only allow for 2 hour games on the schedule on espn and even regulation games are rarely done in under 2:10 or 2:15.

record the game and whatever comes after it.

All you have to do is change the record time. You can tell Tivo to stop recording 30 minutes after the game. I also have a DVD recorder that I set on 4hr recordings, so if Tivo stops, I'll still have the DVD recorder going...
