NBA League Pass not working, but I'm sure the Blazers are rolling

I have League Pass through Dish, but the games are not being televised. As such, they are replaying games from last year, on the same nights the regular games are (against the same teams). It is hard to watch, because in these games the centers are foul-prone and can't do anything on offense, the PG play is horrible on both ends, Roy dominates the ball too much and everyone stands around and watches him, Outlaw and Rudy have a good game one night and then disappear the next, Aldridge rarely posts up so the team has no inside scoring, there is no defense or fast-break points, and Coach Nate never adjusts anything from one game to next, let alone within a game.

I wish I could watch the 2009-10 Blazer games, because I know after getting Andre Miller, hearing about how dominate Oden was in preseason, plus with another year of maturity for all the young talented Blazers, what happened last year is not relevant and couldn't possibly be used to suggest any type of trend for a player or coaching tendency.  So, until Dish resolves its contract dispute with the NBA, I just watch the old games and imagine how dominate the team is being in the real ones (especially with two of the first games being against a Houston team that has lost its top three players and has no one over 6'7")... I could go to ESPN, of course, to read a boxscore and know for sure, but why bother? They are obviously 3-0 and rolling (although it is only three games into the season, so it doesn't mean they are going 82-0!).
