    No TV channel in Ireland has the rights this year. You can get a Sky card on ebay that will get you channel Five. They have the rights for the rest of this season. There may also be more streaming on nba.com.

    ESPN have bought the International TV rights for the next few seasons. They own NASN, so I'm sure they'll automatically get the rights here.

    You can also get a subscription to ART Sport for about €80/year on ebay. They show a few games every week with English commentary.

    Whats the story with that ART Sport? Has anyone used it? Is it a good service? I looked it up on ebay but it says it won't work with Sky or NTL boxes so I'm wondering what would I need to get it to work and watch some more ball! God the effort if only I had a transporter I would move to the States! :rolleyes:
