Well, I'm from Germany and they don't show any live games at all over here. Only on pay TV. You just get to see some short footage in the news at times.
But anyways, most games start at 2 a.m. for us europeans. (thank god for those Sunday afternoon games)
I guess it's pretty much the same in Amsterdam. Will you have access to the Internet? If so I could hook you up with some streams, thats the way me and my buddies watch all the games.
I'm like John Stockton,
I don't even have to score
I just make the game better,

I'm not sure. If my hotel provides internet, then yeah most likely. I'll bring this back up if I manage to find internet in my hotel.

IIRC correctly, Amsterdam has some US sports bars that carries NBA, MLB, NFL and NHL.

But I'd personally bring the lap-top just to be on the safe side..

No games on regular TV, and some but not all games on pay TV...

So yeah, maybe a sports bar if you're lucky, otherwise it's gonna be streams.
