I’m tryna watch a lot more games this season but I live in Europe. What sleep schedule do you use and how many games do you try to watch a week?

    Watched nearly all our games last season. Just stay awake and live with being tired next day :p

    For a few games I avoided the internet and watched next day.

    I watch Laker games on League Pass the next morning before going to work. If you skip timeouts, halftime, free throw routines, etc, you can watch basically every possession in about an hour or so. And there’s a “no spoilers” mode so you don’t know the result ahead of time.

    It works for me cos I’m naturally an early riser (up about 6:30 AM and don’t have to leave for work until 8:00)

    Every now and then there’s a game I can watch live so I watch those regardless of who’s playing.

    Otherwise mostly highlights and once or twice a week watching a non-Laker game on replay if people are talking about it as a really good game.

      This is the way. League pass with condensed games are about 35-40 minutes each. They have an “all possessions” option which shows every possession even misses and free throws, but cuts out all the dead time. You can also watch the full replay if you would rather do that.

      Btw if you happen to be “on vacation” while purchasing your league pass subscription, in let’s say South Africa or India, the price is drastically lower than buying it in Germany or France. But it works in every country after purchasing.

    I watch most of the games day later. There are sport channels that have both live games and replayes and if you like to sail the seven seas there are also web pages that also provide both.

    I work from home, big thanks to my employer. After I drop off my kid to school (the month when she is in the “morning shift”) at 7:30 AM, I go back home and just rewind the game if my cable provider is doing the game that day. If not, there are pathways to many ways some consider unnatural to watch games (torrents and replay sites, to be exact).
