If you're not sure if you fall within the radius, this site is helpful (hopefully accurate). I'm just inside the green.

Of course Gainesville falls just short of the radius smh. At least the Magic are making an effort to bring NBA preseason to the 21st Century.

Re: 10/12 preseason vs Spurs live streamed on Facebook Live
This is great. Great job to atleast provide a quick solution. I will be attending the game live but I hope that Dante and Galante broadcast this, it would be epic.

It is the radio crew doing the game. Not Dante and Galante.

Ugh of course I'm just outside the radius.... Hopefully they'll be someone re-streaming it separately.

This is pretty cool though. I hope that one day (soon) we'll be able to purchase a 'local online season pass'.

Re: 10/12 preseason vs Spurs live streamed on Facebook Live
I asked Adam Savage on twitter if they could somehow broadcast the game and he responded that it's happening.
You are welcome.

Re: 10/12 preseason vs Spurs live streamed on Facebook Live
Is this the first time an NBA team has done this? Really cool idea. And for the people that aren't in that radius, it at least means there's a chance it'll be... put back out there on the Internet I would think.

I think it will become more and more commonplace because the cable providers' product is outdated and people are instead enjoying newer alternatives that are many times cheaper.
Streaming services like Netflix, Sling TV and PS vue all offer essentially the same product but much more inexpensively and with less invasive equipment requirements. For DirecTV or Brighthouse it requires a long term contract and some guy to arrange a time to come over to i stall it.
For Sling you just sign up online and in 5 minutes you have tv basically.
This facebook thing is similar to how we can still watch the debates for free on YouTube or twitter.

The Mavs did it for their game the other nights. A few others apparently have plans to jump on board too.

Re: 10/12 preseason vs Spurs live streamed on Facebook Live
I just bought my international league pass so I am good to go, but this is great for everyone that cant normally see it.
For those that are not in the radius, I suggest trying a VPN or proxy (although getting a location in the middle of orlando might be tricky).
