Cutting the DirecTV cord - How to watch the Suns

phnart · Post #1 » by **phnart** » Mon Feb 20, 2023 7:12 pm

Hey fellow Suns fans...

We are going to ditch DirecTV. Is there any way to watch all the games without having Bally's? Thoughts? Anyone done this?

Thanks in advance!

I buy League Pass which is less than $100 a season and watch through NBA app. However you don't get any that are on espn, TNT or NBATV, so for those I go to sportsurge.net and usually watch the streameast stream as mentioned here but there are a bunch of options...Markkys is the next one I try if Streameast doesn't work well or has wrong announcers or Crackstreams.

I haven't tried the one dmastro mentions.

Actually it looks like League Pass right now is $49.99 the rest of the season (after 7 free days) and IT INCLUDES NBAtv games.

I also get NBA LP, but need to opt out for next season so I can save money. I just cancelled my Hulu and I anticipate with the $19.99 I save monthly, and invest that money into dividend stocks I will be able to buy a luxury condo in 8 years time.

Just by amazon stock now. It's at it's best price in over 5 years. It was a little lower a couple months ago so I bought a chunck but it has dipped again.

No I'm not buying Amazon stock! I had some 10 shares in 2012-2013 timeframe that I bought at $270 and I sold it at $310-320. Clearly I know what I am doing...

I almost bought Netflix in 2003 because I thought the mail delivery DVD thing was great and innovative, and then a friend talked me out of it saying "Blockbuster is now doing that too and will put them out of business...you might want to buy Blockbuster". Luckily I didn't buy Blockbuster but unfortunately I didn't buy Netflix either. It was selling for like $1 a share and it got up to like $690 a year or so ago. It's now at like 337, but still, if I just bought $1,000 a the time, $337,000 wouldn't be bad now (or especially $690K a year or so ago). I probably would have bought more though had I went through with buying.

.....I hate this kind of talk. I want to know about the successful trading. :lol:

What is that stock today that we can buy? If you are into dividend investing Intel is a good buy, as long as they don't lower their dividend payout.

I actually did buy amazon at $88. It was trading at about $184 in late 2021. It's not at it's lowest price in about 3 years, but it's cheapest value in at least 5.

It would be nice to find some kind of new company like some of these I mentioned were back in the early 2000s but it's way too hard to find those now....at least for me.

I don't really buy dividend stocks, or research them. I just bought at lot of Amazon and hope I can sell it after a year or more at $130-$140 and make 50% gain.
