NBA League Pass is a cruel joke.

League Pass is a cruel joke. Paid 200 bucks and in over a month have only been able to watch 1 (one!) Trailblazer game. Big Blazers fan live out in the sticks can’t get “local programming “ so just (Edited per community guidelines) I guess. Even most of their away games are blacked out. Longtime DirectTV customer but thinking twice. I feel ripped off!

TV providers do not control the blackouts. That is up to the teams/leagues.

If in-market then you watch on a Regional Sport Network (RSN), or local channel as they sometimes get the rights to specific games. The NBA League pass would be for out of market and in-season games only. If on a local channel for your market, but not carried by DirecTV, that doesn't allow the League Pass to override the blackout.

What is your zip code? So first thing to check is what the viewing options should be. That way you can verify if just trying to watch on the wrong option or possibly a incorrect blackout. If blackout is in error I would try a reset of the boxes and refreshing service authorizations www.directv.com/refresh to ensure the boxes are receiving the info correctly.
