I've been an Amazon prime member for like 15-20 years at this point. I think I've used Prime Video twice. There is zero chance I will take the time to log onto Prime Video for some random NBA game in the regular season. I'd be curious to see how many Prime subscribers also regularly use Prime Video.

You’d skip a suns game because of the hassle of logging in?

I don’t regularly use prime video, but I absolutely will for nba games. I watch the prime Thursday night football games fairly regularly.

I should have been more clear-I meant I won't log into prime for a non-Suns game. As it is, I miss most televised Suns games anyways since I'm on the east coast and they don't start until after tip for any home games or non-EST road games.

Gotcha…that makes more sense…I don’t watch a lot of non-suns games anymore

What channel/service are the Disney games on?

ESPN/ESPN2/ESPN+, I would assume.

Plus ABC.

If you got your free Ishbia antenna (and you’re in the US and within a few hundred miles of a city), you’re set with ABC!

That’s why Amazon paid 2 billion dollars, so people will get Amazon prime…I’ve had it for 15 years, mostly for the shopping benefits…to me it’s getting easier to watch games with NBC and Amazon…ditch ESPN or get them to a streaming service and we’ll be golden.

I've had it a long time (probably not 15 years) but I was evaluating it before this year's payment was coming due and decided it was still worth it. Still pissed that they added commercials to their streaming content and want even more for no commercials. Now, with the NBA games there is no question.

I use Prime Video several times a week. There is some good stuff on there.

I like Reacher and the Clancy show whose name escapes me at the moment.

My YouTube ABC doesn't have Suns games so I am forced to use an OTA antennae and an additional TiVo subscription if I want to time shift it. Hint: I do.

This article explains the breakdown:

https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/406 ... azon-prime

Basically:

Monday will have games on Peacock

Tuesday will have games on NBC

Wednesday will have games on ESPN

Thursday will be Amazon Prime(after football season)

Friday will be Amazon and sometimes ESPN

Saturday will be ABC(prime time) and sometimes Amazon(afternoon)

Sunday will be NBC(after football season)

Same with Hulu…. The whole needing rabbit ears to get free over the air but not in a paid sub drives me crazy.

This. The only games I need TV for is when the Suns play the kings or dubs, then I need nbc sports.

That was me for many, many years. Except substitute Lakers and Clippers for me but it was both Spectrum and Fox Sports, later Bally Sports.

You know it’s com8ng at some point….



I think the more irritating thing to me is games being blacked out which pushes most to streameast. I pay for pretty much all of the streaming options and it’s frustrating when family/friends elsewhere are watching games that you can’t. Sure you can buy a vpn but you shouldn’t have to.

When one gets shut down, another rises.
It's been that way forever. I just watched a free cam video of Deadpool/Wolverine.

Life is too expensive for me to pay to view anything

Yeah, I used to pay for League Pass, but it sucked. So many games were blacked out, some of the best weren't available because they were shown elsewhere, the stream was janky, and then there were the commercials. I decided to stop paying simply because it isn't worth it to me.

I thought I read somewhere that Amazon is going to take over nba league pass…did I make that up?

I guess I'm the only one here on the up and up.

I have only opened StreamEast a couple of times when I couldn't get NBA League Pass to load up. I pay for the dumb pass so I might as well use it. The only thing I hate is when there's a local blackout (I don't get these very often since I'm in NBA-wasteland Seattle) or when TNT is doing their horrible multi-camera feature where I can't get the normal sideways court cam but instead I get a closeup on KD or Book the whole game.

If you are a KD stan or have a Book is dreamy crush on the guy, you might prefer those closeups, but you might also not care about the rest of the team or the outcome of the game.
