Just got this a couple of days ago and you can watch pretty much anything for free, including games.

For those of you that don't already know about this, you should check it out.

There is indeed an NBA app on it. I've found better success on Reddit however.

Live NBA is a crap shoot. I've had it for a while. I couldn't rely on it and bought SlingTv.

I just dropped Sling tv today. Once you have Kodi you don't need to pay for anything other than internet.

Look into Sportsmania for Kodi. It's my go to app for all sports and provides excellent streams. You do have to pay a membership fee but it is very reasonable and well worth the price.

try PSVue. much better than SlingTV in my opinion. the HD is better, better lineup of channels

I have Kodi. I have had it for years, know all about it. That's why I made the post.

Excellent, most streams are hd. They have 1000's of channels depending on how far you want to go. For example Mobdro app has maybe 1000 channels, 100 news channels, 100 sports, HBO's, Showtimes, Starz, adult channels, and movies that are still in theaters. Then it looks like they have 100's of apps.

Just browsing around I saw many Fox sports channels so I'm pretty confident I can find Magic games.

Pro Sports add-on is my go-to for nba/nfl games. Streams are hd quality and reliable. I also use AceStreams for high quality streams.

Kodi has been great for my family. Wife and oldest are comfortable with it, so leaning towards canceling cable and just using the firestick/fireTV. If you do some googling, can set up sone add-ons to stream live tv.

Just noticed I had an add on called NBA on demand. Just browsed through it and you can watch any game from last season.

I think Mobdro came with my Kodi, but I highly recommend it.

It's a separate app to install on the firestick/fireTV (not an add-on within Kodi). Once it's installed (don't have to do registration or login), when you click on the pro sports link, they'll launch. Should be able to find instructions or videos out on google/youtube.

warning: the links on acestream are torrent-based, so watching them will act like you're downloading from somewhere. your ISP will send you a warning caught. I've watched a few games with no problems, but 2 co-workers watched 1 game each and got a warning letter for their internet activity. be careful.
