21% chance to win the title is incredible odds, but so were the 75% chance or something they gave us in the finals.

i don't even know if tatum could do this move and then go into the shot so smoothly and hit the shot:

i mean, he probably could. But Banchero is a 19 yr old rookie and he's 6'10".

Gonna be a fun player to watch.

He played at Duke and is a big fan of Tatum.

yeah i don't think they'll make playoffs.

thinking west playoffs will be, in no particular order:

1 warriors
2 nuggets
3 clippers
4 mavericks
5 suns
6 grizzlies
7 t wolves
8 pelicans

The updated app doesn’t even seem to be better so far just different. The jumping ahead or back 10 (or maybe it was 30) seconds I could do on appletv last year is gone. Now if I want to rewatch something I have to use the super sensitive scrubbing function. The lag doesn’t seem to be as bad but buffering is. The fire stick my son used in his room is now no good and I had to swap it with the one in his room so he can watch games. At least the price is lower :noway:

You can always cast it from your phone to your TV. I do that all the time. Works best when I remember to clear cache before the game, and even at halftime, too, otherwise, I'll have some buffering issues at some point.

Yep, I have a Chromecast device which I use for this purpose. No buffering issues in previous seasons. It's just unwatchable with the updated app. Dunno if they plan on fixing it.

It really is a shame, with all the billions that the NBA makes, that they can't come up with a good app for their product. Hell, I know of a guy who was a one man show who had a better product than League Pass. I hear that the NFL's product is really good. Why can't they hire whoever developed that to do one for the NBA?

I buy LP via Comcast and watch all LP games on actual TV channels instead of streams and can even DVR games. If you guys have a cable box, adding LP to your cable package is the way to go. I have no complaints about the product at all.
Gonna miss KP but he's no Georges Niang.
