The app lags, the stream lags on Tv. Sometimes it's like it's trying to load with a 240p quality. I pay for the subscription for a whole year and I feel scammed. I know it's not my internet because I tried it on several different devices and even some of my friends have the same issue. When I use other streaming services, including streaming games which takes a lot more bandwidth to run, it works fine. I have 1gb fiber, It should run seamlessly. Your app sucks, I want my money back.

UPDATE: this app is absolutely broken and I have to uninstall it. Sound will randomly play even when the app is closed and nothing has prompted anything to start playing, and the sound is always an advertisement. I get a million daily notifications no matter what I do, the player no longer functions when you rotate it sideways expecting to see a wide screen view (now it's cluttered with stats and betting advertisements), and there is no Chromecast functionality. WHY,NBA?! I want to sub!!

This app is horrible, especially considering how much money is flowing through it. I paid for the season pass, and im constantly just watching loading screens and laggy broadcasts. We have 1gig speed wifi and ethernet connections so its not my internet. I'm trying to watch the Warriors game now (thanks nba for all the restrictions), and it's an awful experience. I'm not paying these people any more until this gets fixed.
