They will let us know the pricing in july. Back in 1995 i had nba team pass for $99.00 for just the celtics games on directv and the nba league pass back then was $149.00. I have no idea how much a single game will cost. i'm happy to see this because i only watch celtic games,although once in a while i might catch a game on TNT,NBA TV,ABC.or ESPN. And i hated paying $199.00 for nba league pass when i only care about the boston celtics. ;D

I used to have the partial team league pass a few years ago, It was a bit cheaper than getting it for all of the teams. Next season I might get the full package, will probably watch a few more teams next season. I got into the habit of watching the pelicans play, might even tune into some twolves games with KG and all the youngins. I feel that for one team it would cost about 80 bucks or so. This single game thing is interesting though, but I usually watch most of the 82 games in the season.

I have bought it the past 10 years or so, I WISH they had this all the seasons when I just wanted to watch Shaq. Now that I have had it so long, I like to watch other teams and players. I guess I will be purchasing the full package, unless the team package is an offer I can't refuse. If the team package is $100 instead of the $200 for all teams, I may have to take the Celts feeds only LOL, depends on how I feel about my funds at the time.  ;D

I mostly end up watching teams that have my fantasy players on it. Partially why I enjoyed watching the pelicans this season.

That's awesome!

It'd have to be significantly cheaper to be worth it, though, because getting to watch basketball almost every night was pretty awesome. I watched all the Boston games, but I also tune into some Chicago, Indiana, and OKC games.

$75 sounds about right. Now they just need to include ALL games in the package, even the nationally broadcast ones. It's bs that you pay that much money then not get some of the games, especially games on NBATV. I have Verizon FIOS, and freaking NBATV is only included with the most expensive package and you can't purchase single channels.

Completely agree, really sucks when a game is on national tv and you can't watch it, its even worse for me because I live in the NYC area and I cant watch the games when Boston comes to NYC. I'm in the opposite boat as you, I have NBA TV but don't have ESPN or TNT.

I had league pass for one season and it was great for fantasy. I moved for the time being to NH and "cut the cord" I only pay for internet, netflix, hulu plus and hbonow.

I have cable and I use to pay separately for the NBATV (around 8 sports channels) package but I found out recently it comes "free" now with my digital package. TNT and ESPN are both basic channels so I always had those.

I'm gonna stick with LP to watch other games when the Cs aren't on. I just get too much enjoyment out of watching some guys to miss out on their games.
