I found conflicting info so I was curious if anyone knew.

I'm really hoping to avoid paying 80 bucks for a month of YouTube TV to potentially watch only one or two or six games.

My understanding is local broadcasting can occur for the play-in and the first round. After that, it is national.

Seems like I was wrong. Only the first round would be on CHSN not play-in.

r/chicagobulls discord is hosted by a guy who streams every game in HD using the local feed and when he doesn't there is another dude who has a backup site that is perma-running CHSN.

They lost me as a paying customer years ago. I had league pass for like a decade but the product was awful and I can get a better feed from sailing the high seas.

yeah I'd be more keen on league pass if the client wasn't absolute garbage. they simply don't care and so neither do I.

I stopped buying ILP after Microsoft bought it. They often make things worse and ILP was bad: couldn't log in anymore, lags all the time, casting on TV didn't work anymore etc. I don't know how it is now but the critics say it's still a bad product.

Adam said they'd broadcast 1st round games on CHSN if we make the playoffs during the broadcast last night.

FWIW looks like the Bulls game is on ESPN on Wednesday.
