How to watch games

Postby rasta_marley on Thu Aug 16, 2012 9:25 pm

Hi everyone I hope you are all enjoying your summer! I have been trying to figure out something for this season, how to watch freaking blazer games. I used to have season tickets but I am now two hours away from Portland. I will still be going to games, but only here and there.

League pass won't freaking let me watch the blazer games from this location, I guess I am just within the black out zone (its ridiculous). I don't have a tv and do not desire one. The blazers started some thing to watch games on their web site but guess what! I live too close to portland (I am 2 hours away for crying out loud!).

I have a nice big flat screen moniter and netflix, I wish that there was some way for me to watch more then just the 4 blazer games that league pass will let me watch. I love the league pass (even with it's issues) and like being able to watch other teams such as New york.

However what I want is to watch every single blazer game that I can't go to personaly, does anyone have any ideas? I would appreciate any ideas at all, thanks! Try to stay cool guys!

Perhaps LP + a proxy to watch them online. Could connect your laptop to the TV too.

where do you live? just curious so i'd never move there.

there are a few internet streams. also could invest in a slingbox and a friend who will do it for you. or something. not sure how slingbox works anymore.
GetItDone I've already stated they (Clippers) will make at least the WCF or else I will post a video of myself eating my own pubes.

Internet streams such as? I am not even sure what a slingbox is lol... I will have to look into it.

Edit: A proxy might not be a bad idea I suppose it would let me escape the blackout hmmm.

We can't discuss internet streams in this forum but they are available if you know where to look. I watched every game last season online. Google is a good place to start. keywords like "streaming nba games live" should get you something good. Also use adblock plus, since most of the streams are jam packed with annoying ads without it.

Thanks for mentioning that J~Rush. I will leave this open, but please be aware that there is a strict rule against posting links for live feeds. Some Google searches will definitely yield specific results, but that's about the best we can say outside of League Pass.

Why? That's really stupid. *I don't make the rules, just try to enforce them. Don't really appreciate you making it more difficult. I know I explicitly said links, but providing names of sites is the same thing. This is a warning.*

A couple of years ago my friend shared his League Pass account with me and I used an IP address blocker/changer to bypass their blackout on Blazer games. So I guess you could still buy League Pass and if you can use simple softwares like the one I used it would be a great and easy workaround to hide/alter your IP so that the Blazer games are not blacked out for you

I think International LP is cheaper and/or better from what I've heard, and an IP blocker would let you use that too.

Because the free links are pirating material protected by copyright. Posting links opens up RealGM to lawsuit for promoting the piracy of said materials. Such lawsuit would likely cause RealGM to be shut down. Therefore, we don't do it. Period.
