Roku Taking The Air Out Of The NBA's Balls

Brett, the frustrated, Roku-owning sports fan who informed us that the device still isn’t streaming MLBtv.com games, now says Roku isn’t streaming NBA playoff games as promised.

Brett writes:

Roku had advertised they would be adding the NBA Gametime channel. The NBA website said on April 14th. The Roku website said when the NBA playoffs began. So far no channel and the playoffs began Saturday.

Like the MLB.tv issue, Roku has remained silent.

I don’t know how they plan to survive if this is how they operate.

Clearly two cases of false advertising.

Welcome to America today

Consolation: At least Brett doesn’t have to watch the neverending slog that is the NBA playoffs.
