Lately, I've been becoming more and more interested in Basketball. However, I never grew up as a "sporty" kid, so I was never interested in professional sports before.

Right now, I'm wondering if there's any site or place I can refer to to watch college/professional level basketball. Where can I go to find past games? If there isn't a source, is there another source besides ESPN on cable to watch basketball? Thanks in advance for any help.

Aurious is not growing up as a "sporty" kid.

More seriously, that question makes some wrong assumptions. Compare to "What's so interesting about clicking a mouse and mashing your keyboard?"

For the OP:
I honestly have no idea, I figured ESPN would be a good source, try google if you know the team that was playing in the past games. Ask a friend who's into the sport more than you, other than that have fun watching its a great game.
For Aurious:
well mostly because of the teamwork it involves, different manuevers I'm sure that question can be reversed onto starcraft players with a generalization like say 'whats so amazing about moving your fingers fast and winning a computer game'.

Close-minded generalizations like that are what cause problems in society, and one liners like that aren't really helping out the person asking the question.

Oh yeah you're from canada here let me jump on your bandwagon,
"Whats so amazing about hitting a puck around and shooting it into a goal?"
If you don't like hockey that shouldnt matter right I mean its like a national sport there isn't it?

Right now it's the offseason for college and professional basketball.

Here's a great torrent site with previous NBA games: http://bt.davka.info/ (hit the old torrents button at the bottom for a ton of games)

When the season starts, myp2p has live basketball games (or any other sports if you'd like).

If you want recommendations on specific games, let me know =)

Youtube has a ton of classic games. I'm not sure if the NBA seeks to remove them (legally they could) but you can find a lot of classic Bulls/Pistons/Lakers(80s) games there. You can also watch mix tapes which are way more entertaining than anything else. :D

Honestly, I'd recommend NCAA basketball (college) over NBA, just because the players generally try harder because they aren't getting payed for what they do. However I think everyone sorta just has their own taste. The NBA playoffs are fun to watch though.

NCAA basketball will start up in November or so, and there will be games on ESPN all the time then.

Thank you everyone, for your helpful comments. I'll be sure to check out the torrent sites for past games and the streams when the season starts.

That's what I ask myself when I wake up at 6 in the morning to drive to the courts :D

Forgive me if there is already a thread on this, but I couldnt find any and no info via google either.

Is there a live stream of tonights Mavericks vs. Heat game?

I'd be especially interested in one that can also be accessed from Europe. Thanks!

Wth man...post in the NBA thread. I think asking for streams is not allowed, but the German members said you can buy a pass for tonight's game from nba.de for 6 euro.
