Celtics - our team
Spurs - great basketball
Cavs - If your a LeBron fan and I think there will be drama.
NO- Davis is the next great thing
 

I would pick the teams of players you like.

Going to piggyback this thread to ask folks here with experience with streaming League Pass for advice.

Has it always sucked like this? I got "Loading, please wait," messages every ten to fifteen seconds for most of the broadcast I was able to watch. After I managed to get through about 4/5 of the first half, the whole thing crapped out completely. By then, the game was over, and is now no longer accessible, even though it gives me a "Watch Archive" option.

So, any advice? Is it LP, or is it a problem on my end? I don't have the fastest connection here, but I'm able to stream Netflix without problems.

League Pass, the domestic version of it sucks on mobile devices, computer, and consoles. Just not reliable. Now do note, that right now the league pass free trial is going on, so the load on their servers is higher than usual, so typically the first week has the worst performance on average in my experience.

I had to use illegal streams at times to watch some games due to outages in league pass service.

Sadly I guess their plan works, when I do buy the NBA TV package its the full thing so I can just get games over my tv provider.....

Thanks, Faf.

Strangely, while I can't get anything but error messages while I try to watch via Roku, I am able to view games via my laptop or tablet, although with some poor picture quality at times and some problems with gaps or skipping (it'll inexplicable jump to real time sometimes when I am watching on a delay).

Right now, I'm not at all impressed with the service. Disappointing.

It works better on roku than the computer. There is an issue with roku right now because they are offering the first week free so there is no way to select your 5.  I put in a ticket and they gave me premium upgrade for free

I watched the NBA broadband last night game buffered 4 times but other than that it was great.   I have 30G speed on fiber network.   I think I can live with that.

Haven't watched it on the Roku yet this year, but it worked wonderfully last year.  It works pretty well on mobile as well... Last night I was watching the game stream while someone drove me to dinner.   It never stopped to buffer for me.

5 I would follow.
Celtics- Atlantic: Default pick cause C's fan.

Cavs- Central: LeBron circus.
Spurs- Southwest: Defending champs.
Warriors- Pacific: Warriors = nonstop action.
Thunder- Northwest: Reigning MVP present.

Would also mention like
Wizards- Southeast: they are in 2nd toughest division (only behind southwest) makes them a fun watch most nights.
