Sorry the East kinda got jobbed in the poll today haha. Only Knicks and Nets in there. Too many games to fit.

Celts and Bucks are the only teams not playing today.

Okay Raps, enough of this. I know you're tanking, but please take care of those fish-eating birds in New Orleans...

The League Pass is 50% so I was going to get it, but can someone explain to me why the hell I can’t watch my local NBA team on it??

Love Leaguepass, I live in Aus, so don't have problems with blackouts? Maybe they do this in the hope to get people going to the actual game instead of watching on Net??

This is the fourth straight matchup between the Knicks and the Mavs where either one of Jalen Brunson or Luka Doncic is missing.

Dec 3, 2022 remains the only time Luka and Brunson went head to head

Loving the schedule tonight. Will probably watch and root for Houston, San Antonio, Denver, and Golden State.

This nuggets team has been so inconsistent. Win 1 lose 1 win 1 lose 1. Their focus has not been where it needs to be and Jamal Murray making those comments proved it. With him saying it makes it worse with his sub par play this year.

What would be the point of League pass if you could actually watch the games you want to watch on it? :lol: :roll:

Most teams have regional broadcasting exclusivity deals with their local cable sports affiliate, so LP can't show the game if your IP appears in the general area.

Their defense is pretty garbage without Aaron Gordon, it was was very apparent when we played them the other night even without Luka, it's no coincidence the Knicks just dropped 145 on them

Because LP is really annoying with its blackouts. It's nice as an out of town knicks fan, but is really annoying in market.

Love Steph but taking an early Thanksgiving vacation by ducking a marquee matchup is cringe.

Don't expect too much. Half of Mavs team either missing or fighting through illness.
