Cheap way to watch all the Spurs games?

[arakkus]

Just a quick question to all of you knowledgeable Spurs fans. I pay Time Warner a bunch of money for cable and realize that I rarely watch it except for Spurs games. Is there any cheaper service out there you guys use to watch all the games? Any help you could offer would be great love to dump there cable service (though will probably keep the internet part).

as soon as NBA broadband offers a one team package I'll buy it, I don't give a about the rest of the NBA, and I'm not watching or paying for anything other than Spurs

League Pass international broadband is offering a a one team package.

League Pass blocks out games in your local area, so that isn't an option if you're in SA. My brother is in the same conundrum, refuses to pay for cable because he doesn't watch any of it and can't use league pass because they blackout the Spurs games. So he is forced to watch it illegally over the net.

Same for me. Its a shame, I miss the Spurs but no way am I paying $100 a month to catch a few games.

A month? I think it's $100 for the year...

[Reck]

Last time I checked they charge you 200 bucks for an entire year.

league pass isn't perfect yet unfortunately. it blocks out local games like someone mentioned, and you can't pick which feed you want to watch (home or away). i hate when i have to listen to the other team's idiot announcers. "OH, DUNCAN CLEARLY FOULED HIM! CLEARLY!"

if their team doesn't score a bucket every single time it's most definitely a foul the refs missed. it's hard to watch sometimes.

Thanks. In any case it's still cheaper than $100/month.

Yeah no doubt.

At 100 bucks a month, he's getting ripped off.

$100/month is probably referring to cable service, not league pass. I pay for league pass because I don't live in SA and have no problem paying $169/year. However it still doesn't cover the playoffs, so you have to either pay for local cable coverage or rip it off the net.

The point here is that there is a large and growing audience who want to watch their local team but don't want to pay for 500 cable channels they never watch. And the NBA provides no option for these folks, forcing them underground.

[spurs1990]

I bought the 5 team broadband three games ago for $59.

I gotta tell you its a real treat to watch the games on basically HD quality on your laptop, with the ability to pause and rewind instantly. I can never go back to those 'other' sites due to the vid quality.

Secondarily you have access to every Spurs game this season to go back and watch.

Its true the other 4 teams are a waste, but I end up watching the Lakers, or Blunder just to see them lose. Will definitely be getting this next year...assuming the Spur are good

Only negative is not getting to hear Sean Elliott and Bill Land call the games. Though hearing the visiting announcers wax poetically on the Spurs is pretty neat.

I agree with you completely. I think that what's going on here is that they're trying to limit people's options by forcing them to watch games through specific avenues. Since a captive audience is one that can be stretched a little bit and all.

Completely understand why people would be using illegal streams to watch games. I used to as well before I got used to the quality on League Pass.

Good guys don't
offer pirated to others.

Friends will instead
use legitimate services and pay the
charge for those services. Wake up,you're not in
Kansas anymore.

Yet I digress, because some people
over do it. They don't
understand that not everyone
rakes in the money
so they pontificate
every chance these
lowlifes get.
ing silly if you ask me.
