This app is trash. Cannot chromecast without subtitles or turn them off there at all. League pass subscription is not synced, so I need to go to the website, find a game and choose "watch in the app". Also I get 30s unskippable ads before content, but this may be just a NBA league pass thing, as they come up on the playstation too. In any case if this wasn't the only way available to me to watch the NBA (well legally), I would not touch it with a 10ft pole

From a good app in the past...it's gone to my worst installed app. So a year has gone by and it's still horrible! PLEASE NBA fix the next bugs!!! Can't access the player when casting which means no controls to go forward or back. Automatically turning on the capture and not possible to access the controls to turn it off (why in the hell is it even turned on!?) Getting back to the main page and then click on the casting game starts a new highlight and stops the current playing game.
