Anyone using Sling to watch the playoffs?

[Lucky17]

We cut the cord when we bought a house this past summer, and with Netflix (via Roku), I really don't feel like I miss anything, except live sports.

Tried LeaguePass during the free previews, and the quality was spotty at best. With the majority of games on ESPN and TNT, I'm contemplating trying out Sling TV for the playoffs.

Anyone have anything to say (good, bad, indifferent) about their experiences with Sling? TPs for all responses.

 It says you cant pause or rewind ESPN, just live but for 20$ ESPN, TNT, TBS seems cool.

Thanks.

Been doing some research on Sling. Price seems good, but I know that there have been some issues with the content delivery.

Also, I had Dish for the longest time before the move, and closing out my account with them was such an ordeal that it left a pretty sour taste in my mouth after an otherwise long and happy customer relationship. Still not fully sure I want to give them any more business.

Fellow cord cutter here.

Have you tried out TNT Overtime?  It's free during the playoffs, and let's you watch the TNT games and choose the camera view.  Though not every TNT game is on there, they still have most of them, 10 of the 16 games on TNT from this past Sunday till next Monday are free on TNT Overtime (pretty much all the good games, see schedule here).

So I get the first four C's games without cable no problem as two are on ABC and the other two are on TNT Overtime.

I definitely need to research that. I'd heard about it, but didn't check out the site during games this weekend.

Is it live streaming, or archive content?

Live streaming.

Cool, I will definitely check it out for the Pels-Dubs game tonight. Thanks!

Digging it so far. Thanks, bdm! TPs in your future.
