I did the monthly NBA League Pass for just the Magic. Something like $18/month?
The service & quality are better than in years past (last time I tried anyhow).
I don't like the interface, it sucks.

Huge score boxes pop up at the bottom of the screen anytime you accidentally touch your mouse.
You can make it hide the scores but the huge score boxes remain.
I hate any streaming service that affects the image when you touch the mouse.
I prefer a service that only pops up a menu when you move the mouse to the bottom of the screen.
And because of the annoying large score boxes, I *might* not pay for this next year.

Stupid illegal streams deliver a more satisfying viewing experience (once you get past the initial spam fest).

Oh, and you can't screenshot anything in Chrome. I have to use firefox if I want to screenshot something.
Keep your politics out of my sports

I stream through nba league pass team pass just for magic. I think it was like $130 for the season.
Most important thing to consider is blackout restrictions. Living in New England the Celtics games are the only ones I'm unable to stream. Good thing I don't root for them. I imagine it would be the same in Florida. Might be something to consider before paying for a service you might not be able to use.
