NBA League Pass Blazer feeds???


Anyone out there know what's going on with NBA League Pass via DirecTV?  I'm a Blazer fan in PA and have yet to see the Blazer broadcast feed available, regardless if the Blazers are home or away.

If you think Barrett and Rice are lacking, try watching from the other team's perspective...Barrett and Rice are actually pretty decent by comparison. The Cavaliers broadcast team is obnoxious...and the worst homer out there is (and I say this with a degree of sadness)...Clyde Drexler!!

I was wondering too

I haven’t heard the Mikes once this year. I was wondering what the deal was. I’m pretty sure they didn’t give the Blazer feed for the @Houston or OKC game on league pass.

League pass

We’re on cable here in So Cal and get the Pass; we’re delighted to find out that this year the Pass is giving us the option of hearing the Home or Away coverage. We missed the Mikes last year and enjoy hearing them now.

Cheers!

comcast league pass gives you an option some nights but always the home team. what kills me is that all the games broadcasted are not necessarily in HD--what gives?

…and they give you NBATV but not HDNBATV with the package-absurd!

Please, for the love of all that is holy, please stop using the following: "Book it.", "FTW", "Epic" & "Fail".

...no seriously--stop.

TWC vs DirectTV

I switched from Time Warner Cable to Direct TV in San Diego just to watch the Blazers in HD. However I have yet to view a Blazer broadcast feed with the Mikes. You really appreciate how good the Mikes are after hearing other announcers.

Same thing

I’m in Hawaii and have Directv, I get all the other games with a choice of either the home or away teams broadcast and get any HD broadcasts also. I’ve yet to get a Blazers broadcast feed. Was wondering if it had to do with Comcast or something. I would really like to watch the Mikes instead. I was very entertained by Houston’s broadcasters though. I got to see the Blazers broadcast on League Pass Broadband but come on I wanna watch on my big HDTV.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
