The new Lakers deal with Time Warner Cable is great for the Lakers, but not for Las Vegas Laker fans. Here is the scenario. Time Warner Cable is not even in Las Vegas, we only have Cox cable. So that means there is no Lakers coverage. So you might think, no big deal, get the NBA League Pass and you can watch all the Lakers games. Well, guess what... Las Vegas is considered as having the local broadcast rights to the Lakers, and all Lakers games are blacked out on NBA League Pass. So, not only can I not even sign up for cable service to get the Lakers, my subscription with NBA League Pass will not allow me to watch Lakers games. This really sucks for all the Las Vegas Lakers fans.
COX CABLE, please make a deal with Time Warner to carry the Lakers channel.
NBA League Pass, please remove the Lakers from being blacked-out in the Vegas market!
