    NBA Basketball championship games can offer the many different types of bets to lie down. This is why you will be able to find several kinds of basketball proposition bets.

    Sorry now, new to Boards

    Just wondering how you find out which games ESPN or ESPN America are showing for the week. I know they showed the Heat/Celtics on Saturday but haven't seen any since then?

    They often don't update their listings regarding NBA games until the last minute. Even checking the ESPN site there's nothing listed yet.Have tended to show games in early rounds of the playoffs around the weekend/Thurs to Sunday.
    I presume as it gets to the conference finals/NBA finals they'll be showing most if not all games.
    Doesn't look like the game tonight will be on; therea are some good links to websites up here you might be able to get a link on.
    VipStand.net and Atdhe.ws are a couple that have worked for me recently.

    Edit: just saw Sea Devils post.

    Fair play to ESPN looks like they're picking up up all the conference finals games

    great to watch a game without worrying if it's going to get cut off! :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Do the NBA or any teams offer a service where you can pay to get all of one clubs games for the season? Say for example I wanted to watch all Bulls games, is that possible?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,881 ✭✭✭WHIP IT!


    Anyone who has ESPN, they're showing a lot of 'Classic' games lately, just about to start is Jazz-Rockets in WC finals from 97... Knicks-Heat from same year just over... great viewing... I actually know more about this era than the current one so very enjoyable for me - showing my age now, I know! :P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,066 ✭✭✭Sea Devils


    Thanks for that!. I'll watch it tomorrow. Olajuwon is one of my favourite non Warrior's players of all time so this'll make a nice change watching a full game of his rather then Youtube clips. :D

    Just a minor thing but I think it's strange that ESPN showed the original NBC telecast for game one and then reverted to what I assume was the world feed that was shown then?

    It wouldn't bother me at all normally but these commentators are pretty dreadful :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,066 ✭✭✭Sea Devils


    Two games from the 2000 NBA Finals on tonight, Games 4 and 6. Both are being shown at 6PM and 8. Can't wait. :)

    Thanks for that - will Sky-plus em... I'm more excited about these Classic replays than I was about this year's Finals! :D

    Just an FYI but ESPN is now free to Sky Sports subscribers.

    3 pivotal games tonight and once again ESPN completely ignore them. Totally pissed off with their coverage of the playoffs so far.

    Any other channel showing the games or will I have to make do with a dodgy stream for Celtics - Hawks?


  • Registered Users Posts: 101 ✭✭kingcurls


    The level of ESPNS coverage of the playoffs is really annoying me, I have been a baseball and NFL fan for years and this year decided to get a bit more involved in some NBA, managed to catch one Celtics game all season and would like to be watching some of the playoff games now too but yet hardly any coverage, how are international fans supposed to get into this sport?

    NFL is covered heavily on Sky, MLB is covered on ESPN America plus the season MLB TV Premium is priced very reasonably (for every game of the season in HD) but basketball doesn't seem to get the coverage, anyone know why or where someone can actually get to watch the games??

    Anyone having problems recording games on upc.

    Last night it recorded the game but not the program after, even though I had set it to record both, missed most of the 4th quarter.

    Night before it recorded both the game and the following show, but bizarrely there e
    seemed to be a huge gap in between.

    The game recording went up until half time. The show after started with the middle of the 4th quarter, I don't know what happened in between.

    So frustrating.

    Wow ive been looking for this cind of service for a long time . thanks for this thread guys. ! trying it out asap


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,062 ✭✭✭walrusgumble


    This the Season Pass worth the money? Will it show uninterupted coverage, any black outs?


  • Registered Users Posts: 9 LosBlanco


    Season pass, although expensive, is worth the money. However, with Sky and ESPN both showing games and the NBA highlights on NBA.com almost straight away, I would not recommend it. You would need to willing to stay up until the early hours each night to get value.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,331 ✭✭✭decies


    One thing that is handy is the ten mins condensed games feature , I have it and I don't do the stupid o clock games .


  • Registered Users Posts: 247 ✭✭ashdale5


    No Celtics-Knicks on tv tonight?


  • Registered Users Posts: 119 ✭✭gammon_steak


    Does anyone know if ESPN will still have a good coverage of NBA this coming season or is it migrating to Sky?


  • Registered Users Posts: 111 ✭✭Joaquin223


    Anyone any insight about getting NBA on TV this season? Will sky pick it up in January like last season I wonder?

    Edit: Ah, I see that BT Sport are showing it, don't know how I missed that!


  • Registered Users Posts: 487 ✭✭stuba


    Anyone on here manage to get the NBA gametime app on their PS3 or PS4? I think it's available on these consoles would be handy..
