League Pass Bonanza

From now through Sunday, March 4th, NBA League Pass is offering a free trial. This is an excellent opportunity to check out some interesting teams that don’t get a lot of national shine.

 

Games of Note:

-Wednesday

Min at LAL- Ricky Rubio is the flashiest slightly-above-average point guard since a young Jason “White Chocolate” Williams, but his teammate, Kevin Love is one of the 10-15 best players in the game.

CLE at NYK- Linsanity is on the wane, not that teams have figured him out, but this is a great opportunity to see probable Rookie of the Year, Kyrie Irving in action.  Irving was last seen tanking the skills competition and ruining some poor ball-boy’s chance at a $25,000 scholarship.

-Thursday

LAC at SAC- Congrats to Mayor Kevin Johnson,and the people of Sacramento for securing a stadium deal to keep the Kings in town. Condolences to the 15 NBA players who have to live in Sacramento.

-Friday

MIA at UTA- The Jazz are a surprisingly fun team to watch, and Gordon Haywood is an absolute stud. I can’t say I had high expectations for him coming out of Butler, but I actually don’t know very much about basketball.

DEN at HOU- There’s a reason Knicks fans didn’t want to lose Gallinari. He won’t be in action Friday, but you should watch anyway. Chances are you haven’t seen the Nuggets play since half of their team left for China.  They’re pretty good.

-Saturday

IND at NO- PaulGeorgePaulGeorgePaulGeorgePaulGeorgePaulGeorgePaulGeorgePaulGeorgePaulGeorge

CLE at WAS- Epic Vale needs to be seen to be believed. If you enjoy the unintentional comedy if Tyrus Thomas, you’re going to love JaVale McGee

Sunday

All the best games are nationally televised. If you absolutely must watch a League Pass game, check out Warriors/Raptors. Curry and Ellis are the best untelevised 1-2 punch.
