In Argentina you have games on ESPN Wed and Fri nights. You also have DeporTV which usually shows Spurs/Clippers/Raptors (teams with Argie players).
I quit my job to become a hippie and backpack the world. My first six months will be backpacking around South America, starting next Monday the 4th.
This of course coincides with playoff time. Are there any native South Americans here who can comment on how easy or difficult it will be for me to find the games to watch, or people with South American travel experience? Mi espanol es muy nuevo, pero puedo hablar y he estado practicando. I live in New York now so I'm very used to going out to watch games at bars on my own, but I'm wondering if playoff games will even be available for broadcast down there.
I'm sure it varies by country and locale. I'll be arriving in Ecuador and heading up to Colombia in May, so unfortunately I won't be in the Spurs hotbed of Argentina until after they've won their sixth championship.

I'm travelling South America through May/June as well.
Hoping to catch a few playoff games along the way.
Brazil Argentina and most South American countries broadcast nba in particular playoffs through ESPN network... No worries
and if you have an internet connection you can either stream or just buy international league pass. the time difference is negligible for most games so no problems there. it might be hard to convince a bar to put on a basketball game over whatever soccer match is on, but Im sure some place will accomodate you especially if you're willing to pay!
Spurs have been a boring team since Tony Parker's decline.
Nice. Thank you to (almost) all of you.
Sounds like a great experience. Take it all in, Spur Bank.
