Craving Non-Stop NBA Action? How to Sling Your Way to NBA TV (Without Actually Slinging Yourself)
Let's face it, there's nothing quite like catching an electrifying NBA dunk contest or the nail-biting final seconds of a playoff game. But who wants to be chained to cable when you can be living the cord-cutter dream? This is where Sling TV swoops in, like a superhero with a remote control.
However, Sling's base packages don't include NBA TV. Fear not, fellow basketball fanatic! Here's how to transform your regular Sling TV into an NBA TV paradise:
Step 1: Prepare for Takeoff (By Logging In)
First things first, you'll need to be a Sling TV subscriber. If you're new to the Slinging scene, head over to their website and choose your base service. Think of this as your launching pad – the foundation for your NBA TV dreams.
Already a Sling subscriber? Excellent! High five for being on the cutting edge of television. Log in to your My Account – this is your mission control.
Step 2: Suit Up! (Choose Your Weapon...er, Extra Package)
This is where the real fun begins. Sling TV offers Extras – like awesome add-on packages that supercharge your viewing experience. We're looking for the one with the most buzzer beaters and slam dunks, so head over to the Edit Subscription section and open the Extras drop-down menu.
Step 3: Game Time! (Adding NBA League Pass or NBA Team Pass)
Here's where the magic happens. Sling TV offers two options to satisfy your NBA cravings:
- NBA League Pass: This is your all-access pass to NBA heaven. You'll get NBA TV included, along with a ton of nationally televised games and even some out-of-market matchups (depending on your location). Basically, it's like having your own personal NBA courtside seat, minus the popcorn smell (although, you can totally add that yourself).
- NBA Team Pass: This option lets you focus on your favorite team. You'll get most of their games throughout the season, so you can bleed your team's colors with pride (or frustration, depending on their performance).
Step 4: High Five! (Confirmation and Showtime!)
Once you've chosen your champion (NBA League Pass or NBA Team Pass), click the glorious +ADD button next to it. Confirm your selection, and then... BAM! You're ready to catch all the NBA action your heart desires.
Pro Tip: Sling TV sometimes offers sweet deals on these Extras, so keep an eye out for special promotions. You might just snag yourself some NBA TV at a steal!
There you have it! With these simple steps, you've transformed your Sling TV into a non-stop NBA extravaganza. Now, sit back, relax, and prepare to be amazed by LeBron's fadeaway jumpers (or argue about them with your friends – we won't judge).
