Spurs Audio League Pass SUCKS big time this season. It never works.
I already told that to sputsdotcom and he said he'd contact the league
get your ing right, anybody else getting the "please tune back in during regular broadcast hours" seems to happen to the spurs almost every other game

Audio league pass and broadband league pass are both working fine for me...
I'd say nba.com is incredibly badly run. Back in November, right after I ordered league pass broadband, I was getting a lot of blackouts for Spurs games. I live nowhere near TX, and these games weren't on nat'l tv. So I used their "help center" to report the problem. And it wasn't just an email into the void; it actually opened a problem ticket in their system, which I could check back on.
I didn't hear anything from them for TWO MONTHS.
No joke, just a week ago, in January, I got an email saying thanks for contacting us, blah blah, try clearing your cache. Freaking unbelievable. I wrote back that they had the worst customer service on the planet, and that the problem had cleared itself up after I wrote (it did, somehow) or I would have canceled the subscription long ago.
Dear nba.com, please get your broadband act together. Like, e.g., how about the ability to pause a game? Maybe even skip back 30 seconds to re-watch a cool play? You know, basic like that? So fans can, I don't know, enjoy the game more? Ever heard of that?
you would think that the official basketball league website would be up to scratch- but it isn't.
even when viewing box scores and using that courtside live scree there are errors: parts of the play by play don't fit on the screen etc. etc.
NBA.com was blunted several years ago by a heck who is already in jail.
I've been pretty satisfied with league pass broadband so far, but one thing that annoys me is how you have to actually click and watch a game to see how much time is left. Sure you get a graph, but knowing that the game is about 5/16th done doesn't help. Its the same on the nba.com home page.
This not working again
I know why.
We have contacted them again about this. Sorry all, it's frustrating to us as well.
Thanks for the help
move to san antonio
problem solved
LP Broadband isn't working well for me tonight. The first quarter it had the Bulls feed, they fixed that but it's freezing for me constantly.
ALP fails again.

This non-HD is pissing me the off.
On the plus side, if it cleared up on it's own and you hadn't done any upgrades or anything, than it probably WAS a cache problem and whatever it was finally got overwritten due to limited space.
Not that there's any excuse for how long it took to get back to you though.
I've gotten four Schoening called Spurs games this year on ALP.
I agree that NBA.com is a poor website. Other than the other previous complaints about Audio League Pass and League Pass Broadband (although I've generally had success with the latter), there are two other major issues that I find greatly annoying:
1. Their gamecast is horribly behind. Whenever I want an updated score and gamecast, I have to go to espn.com. Usually the NBA.com one is about a quarter behind.
2. They don't have a mobile version of their webpage. Both mlb.com and nfl.com have beautiful mobile pages that I can access on my iPhone, but nba.com does not.
Edit: That's not to say that I can't get to nba.com on my iPhone, just that it's identical to the regular page. Plus it uses flash, which doesn't help.
Audio not working again
Great job NBA.com
Same scenario here, except their initial, and only, response, after two months or so, was a stock response email asking, "Has your BLACKOUT COVERAGE issue been resolved. If not please contact us again describing your BLACKOUT COVERAGE issue." I live in freakin' Hawaii. I'm 3000+ miles from the nearest arena. Clearly they are not following the normal tv network blackout policies.
It also doesn't seem to be an oversight, but it's impossible to determine the broadband blackout coverage, prior to purchasing the package.
After many hours of contact with the league... I believe audio league pass has been fixed. At least it is working for me.
Just wanted to pass it along to everyone. http://www.nba.com/broadband/alp_schedule.html
Thanks so much for the effort spursdotcom. It's really nice to have you here, you've brought great stuff to the board and it's all appreciated.
