Anyone know how to watch NBA games on the Oculus?

Re: NBA on the Oculus
Would love to get a demo of this before splurging on a nice VR headset. It was a cool tech demo on the Apple Vision Pro reviews. IIRC, they were using league pass and the NBA app.

Re: NBA on the Oculus
It’s supposed to be like your sitting at the game on the front row court side.
But I’m still trying to figure out how?

I have watched TV on VR before by using the desktop app. Fun to see action up close like that. It can be like sitting courtside. It is cool, not great though. Nothing I would do regularly.
Now, the mini movie, The Limit, with Norman Reedus and Michelle Rodriguez was badass. You basically have the viewpoint of a side character in all the scenes. Nothing like sitting next to Rodruiguez in a car.

Re: NBA on the Oculus
Saw the concept on some commercial on TV where the old school athlete was defrosted from a frozen slumber and saw somebody with the VR mask on and asked what he was doing, only to be told he was watching a game.
I'd be interested in trying it to see what the view is like.
The suspended cameras have great views these days.
But my last VR was my old Google Pixel 1 VR goggles that I've lost the remote control for and don't even know if they still work.

Re: NBA on the Oculus
I have my doubts. League Pass is already low quality. I don't even get 1080p with a good setup and internet speed. I can't imagine this is going to work well.
