How are blackouts determined for NBA LEAGUE PASS?

Blackouts take place when a game is televised locally in your area via a regional sports network or an over-the-air station.  If a game is blacked out on NBA LEAGUE PASS in your local area, you should tune to your local station to see the game.

Games will also be blacked out when they are appearing on national television.  This applies to games being televised on ABC, ESPN, TNT, and NBA TV.  You may view these games simply by switching to the designated channel.
