Celtics (0-0) vs Sixers (0-0) Preseason Game #1 10/4/16

[makaveli]

3 TPs to anyone who can tell me how to watch the game if I don't live in Boston. Please help me out guys I want to watch Marcus and Jaylen so bad

Doesnt the nba usually show free league pass in the preseason?

nawww i thought so as well but its ONLY Canada and World games, not domestic ones (!?!?!)

I noticed at nba.com the tv schedule does NOT list the celtic-76er game and the next game versus the hornets as not being on tv anywhere. I live in so cal and not even my tivo for the 1st time in 22 years does not show any games of the celtics listed until they play the knicks  on nba tv.I sure hope this is a mistake,because i have always been able to watch al  the pre season games on nba league pass. BUT this is the first year with frontier who replaced verizon fios in southern california, and so far the only games showing up on the schedule are those on nba tv espn,and TNT.

Same for me in Florida and Frontier won't let me order LP 'til the 18th...

The 1st week of the regular season is free and they have a few other free periods during the season.

gerald's injury has a nice little silver lining = more jaylen.

PS. good to have these threads back again. I always enjoy the communal freakouts near the end of games.

TP to FLCelts for holding it down.

Same in PA. I have FIOS and ordered NBALP yesterday, but it looks like they're not showing it on tv this year and only on Broadband, which is BS.

drive (of fly depending on where you are) to Boston and catch the game at a local bar

Or, fly to Philadelphia. Or, ask one of us fanatics on CB to give you a play-by-play. OR, don't watch it and pout about it (like me).

TP for even more options I didn't consider!

I'll join you in your whine--except my beef is with the NBA's web site this year. I know the usual excuse is alignment for phones, but I swear the state of the art of commercial web sites peaked in 2014--and the NBA is right there in the downhill slide. What a hot mess they've got. Just try clicking on a game, such as tonight's, for useful info.

And while we're at it, the csnne.com and celtics.com sites somehow got ruined as well. They both had pretty good ones, but in trying to boost their video content, I think it is, they've become less user friendly as well.

Okay, I'm done.

Embiid will only play 12 minutes today. Probably two stints in the first half and that's it.

While on twitter and stuff, watching the scrimmage game and other clips from warm ups and practice, I've noticed that Isaiah seems to have altered his form a little this offseason. And unlike Marcus's change, I don't like Isaiah's change. He seems to be pushing the ball more, rather than putting arc on it. It doesn't look right. Something is different about it. I'll be on the lookout tonight to see if it's that noticeable or if it has any effects on his shot.

Should we set the over/under on how many minutes embiid plays until his foot falls off at around 10 minutes ?

Every year we purchase league pass via xfinity/Comcast and every year when we go to sign up for broadband and put in our xfinity account number it claims they can't find the associated league pass account.  So for about 5 years straight I've had to create a support ticket on NBA.com showing them proof of purchase (my xfinity bill). Massive pain in the butt. 

I tried to activate broadband right now and it once again says there's no league pass associated with that xfinity account number.  So I called xfinity and it doesn't even seem like they can activate it right now.  There's no way to add it through the xfinity website either.  They aren't even showing pricing information. 

So I guess I just have to wait ? 

So annoying this is always so clunky.   Please PM me the best pirated steam you can find of this game... Or just post it publicly here.  As far as I'm concerned, I'm paying to see this game and I better have a way of watching it even if it's "illegal".  I need to watch the 5 minutes of Embiid's NBA career.

It's a more compact stroke.  Perhaps it looks awkward because he is still getting used to it.  If it leads to a quicker release then that's a good thing.
