How a game between the fucking Nuggets and Cavaliers (a game i’d very much like to watch) is blacked out on League Pass for me, someone who lives in deep South Texas!? League Pass is so not worth it

It's blacked out because the games on TV. Not because of your location

They don't want you to see Tony Brothers' stifling defense on Nicola Jokic. Completely fair refereeing, nothing biased about this at all

There is a stream in the east

  1. Get VPN

  2. Set location to Turkey

  3. Sign up for League Pass with a random Turkish address.

  4. Enjoy no blackout restrictions and like half price on the membership. Don't even need the VPN again.

This was the method a few years ago, I'm not sure if it still works 100% or if there's a better one now. I believe Venezuela also worked. That said, I think some Nuggets games will still be blacked out because they have an absolute god awful TV deal.

League Pass is awful, run while you can.

It's ironic how the European League pass is superior to the US one when the US should be the primary market. I can watch every single match, no matter if it's national TV or anything like that. I don't understand why they cant do the same for US especially when it's a paid service. Then again, the NBA LP has been the worst sport streaming platform I have ever seen. This season they just forgot that I have an active yearly sub and had to fight with support for 5 days through emails until they gave me a free yearly as they weren't even able to restore my already bought one.

I tried to do the right thing a few years ago and buy league pass, then every game I wanted to watch was blocked, so I canceled and scoured the internet for free streams. Let google be your guide young man

Such questions have always been why I've never ordered Pass.

I get to see my local team's games as it is.

Of course all the marquee games on Turner/ABC/ESPN.

Pass has never made a ton of since to me personally.

Yes, I would be able to watch the Hornets play the Blazers at 1am. I don't want to watch that though!
