    how do u guyz follow the game when it's not on ur tv?
    4/13/08

    well since raptorsnation and channelsurfing crapped out already.

    here are some useful sites provided by some of our posters here for watching games online.





    *make sure you have the software installed needed to play before you click on a 'play' link.
    *sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. sometimes it's a totally different game. :/

    i have sopcast, ppmate, tvants & uusee installed. i click, it plays!

    http://www.raptorsnation.tk/ IS EVEN BETTER!!!

    edit: 3/09/08

    to watch games go to http://www.channelsurfing.net/ (audio/video)
    i tested it and it only works with IE (Internet Explorer) real neat. no lag whatsoever. thanks to people who suggested it.

    and for following all games... use ESPN. like what greek sed, it updates faster.

    http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/scoreboard (audio is available)

    there's that GameCast (shows up when the game has started) which u can click and it opens on a different window. u can actually open multiple GameCast windows and just tile them on ur monitor. pretty neat if u have multiple games that u'd like to follow. not to mention, u dont have to 'be in front of the monitor' to see the scores as the score numbers are in BIG text! u could actually do other things from afar while keeping up with the scores.

    another neat thing abt espn is that u can Listen (shows up when the game has started) to any of the games, one at a time only tho. all u need to do is register. it's free! really neat if u wanna know play-by-play actions. also, know which player is killing ur bet! LOL! again, no need to be in front of ur computer. just turn up the volume and enjoy the game while doing some other things.

    AND for handicappers, this site also put up some decent 'preview' write ups/video. and posts boxscores, photos and highlights after the game. i personally use it for my 'analysis' (i dnt wanna use handicapping when it pertains to myself. im shy. lol!)

    thanks for the replies. hopefully this helps.
    again, if u have a better way, feel free to reply.

    goodluck all and let's all enjoy nba basketball!

    i use espn ("GameCast" and/or "Listen") *both free just have to register to listen.

                        I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the www.cstv.com for the college basketball. Most exciting one for sure.

                        It's like you're watching the game, only it looks like computer simulation. You can select the court view and other options.

                        Everybody should check it out, especially for the March Madness.

                        Enjoy...

                          Here, that's actually a better shortcut.

                          CBS Sports features live scoring, news, stats, and player info for NFL football, MLB baseball, NBA basketball, NHL hockey, college basketball and football.


                          They call it GamaTracker.

                                  i just checked now and the 4 nba games currently going on are working. if the video doesnt start they tell you to keep pressing the play button and then it should work. Other times the screen is black when theres a commercial and then it comes back when the game resumes. hope that helps

                                        Make sure that you are using Internet Explorer. That is the only advice I have. Also, not all the games work all the time, but when they do, which is 80% of the time, it is great.

                                              greek if ur talking abt that channelsurfing site, i didnt really get to the bottom of it. u need IE as ur browser to really check if that site really works and if its decent enuff streaming audio/video.

                                              i tried it using opera and firefox and i didnt see anything - it didnt work for me. :/

                                                i use IE and i am able to watch most games. i think its not compatible with firefox..

                                                "If you are using Firefox and the stream is not working try IE(Internet Explorer). " thats from their site
