    I know that it has been discussed in the past, but with the Rockets looking to take the next step in the rebuild, I was hoping to catch more of the games on TV (instead of finding random streams with annoying popups). Aside from cable TV subscription and Fubo TV, are there any other streaming services or providers to watch Rockets/Astros games?

    Any word if Tillman might seek to replicate what the Suns are doing in terms of broadcasting over regular TV channels? ;)

    Thanks in advance Rednation!

    @Reeko are you still buying international league pass and using a VPN? I wonder if I should try the same set up. Don't want to get cable again

    What’s the status on the networks?
    I know there was a possible change up with the who had the rights and something about paying for the deals.

    I would like to completely cut the cable cord too.
    We have DirectTV Stream through ATT after getting tired of paying almost $300 a month for Xfinity. But DirectTV has gone up so much I’m paying well over $200 a month for streaming and internet on top of the other streaming apps.
    Only reason we have DirectTV is because it was either that or Fubo to watch Astros/Rockets

    Use a VPN, set server to India, go to League Pass page and it should now be International League Pass India…purchase LP which is 1500 rupees or so

    worked fine for me with no issues for 2 years, but last season on occasion I couldn’t access the stream to watch the Rockets

    No. Just go to the catagories and pick your sport and it’ll show all games for that day. Don’t waste your money on streaming services. I’ve watched all sporting events from nba to soccer to UFC/Boxing.

    streams or ill probably get NBA league pass. I live in Australia so the only games that are on " kayo " are the big teams.

    Kayo is also a streaming service that has ESPN on it.

    I’m in San Antonio, I watch the rockets on league pass with YouTube tv, highly recommend that. I’ve had league pass through a bunch of different methods and youtubetv is by far the best.

    No legal way to watch the Astros here so still just sportsurge (illegal stream) for me. I tried vpn with mlbtv but it could tell I was using a vpn and didn’t work. I’ve read it still works with more expensive vpns (I was using a free one) but didn’t seem worth the hassle.
