Cheapest way to watch Jazz games?

Is anyone else having problems with ballstreams? I'm going to renew my subscription, but going to the website I can't navigate anywhere.
 
Is ballstreams legit or is it a piracy website?
 
Just read that ballstreams isn't accepting members right now due to billing complications... even if you are a member you can't upgrade to premium.
 
Wait... so if I got NBA League Pass I wouldn't be able to get the streams from them? Only my local providers ROOT sports version? That seems a little... STLUPID! I would like to hear different announcers or opinions, or the special camera views they claim to have.
 
There's multiple legal/borderline illegal and illegal options to get NBA access:

Streaming sites that offer P2P content are basically illegal and unless you can make your software think that you're uploading even though you aren't you're also a content provider, you're theoretically a target. So yes , I'd probably use a proxy if I'd use that software.

Then there's normal flash streams(usually low quality) and you're obviously consuming the content w/o a license, but in practice none will care to prove that you consumed it.

Ballstreams is a borderline illegal case just like above. You're paying for a service in another country, where the authorities don't care that someone offers a service illegally and the NBA doesn't have reach to stop it. And if they had they'd just go after the provider.

Then there's the League Pass.
If you're in an area where geo tracking will black you out, you need to use a level 1 proxy. There's legal VPN services you can either freely access(unreliable mostly in terms of availability and stability) or you can purchase them for often 5/month and connect to it via their service. That way the NBA thinks you're wherever you got that service and won't black you out.
To make the League Pass cheaper, you can use certain foreign proxies while booking the option. For example Congo/India/Thailand are among the cheapest options to buy.
You have to book it there and once you're being redirected to your credit card service/paypal you have to deactivate your proxy before logging into that service(to avoid that your payment system suspects a security breach from abroad)
Then you can book it and have normal access like everyone else on League Pass.(You still have to use a VPN/Proxy if you're blacked out ofc)

Other than those there's your local options but since I'm not from the USA I don't know nothing about them and can't advise you there.

More like legal complications. The bigger this site gets the more pressure will be put on it to get shut down by the US. Silver is tenacious. Careful.
 
Oddly, the cheapest way and the creepiest way are probably the same: Stand outside the window of someone who is watching it.
Lol

Got to be wearing a black hoodie and have some kind of weapon and/or your dick in your hands.
 
Apologies to everyone if posted already - but NBA League Pass has a single-team package available for just $119/season. I just bought it yesterday and couldn't be happier!
 
Note to the above - you can stream NBA League Pass via an iPad, laptop, PS3, PS4, Xbox, etc. Nowadays I figure most people have a device that would work.
 
Wow.. and I live in st. george.. LP is useless IMO.

You could just get a simple browser extension that changes your ip address to somewhere else in the that is not blacked out.

As far as Ballstreams goes if you have to sign up or renew you are going to have to wait a couple weeks.

Hey there, BallStreams disabled new invites and registration due to an issue with the billing system. they don't have a solid ETA, but they estimate it could be 2 - 4 weeks before it's resolved.

I will post once it's up and running to let everyone know.

But you mean it will be resolved? I have an account already and just need to get games sometime, don't really care if I miss a few weeks

BallStreams Yeah, they'll for sure get it fixed. Due to the nature of what BallStreams is doing, they have to be careful about the payment method and payment procedure hence it being more complicated than signing up with PayPal or other easy to use payment vendor.
