Playon runs through a ps3, xbox 360 or your wii. I believe you also can use other devices i.e. roku. You can create an account at playon.com. There will be more details there. Once you have created an account go to playonmonkeys.com and download their live sports plugin. Playon will take you through the steps. Once you have this you will have a stream of all nba games available I beleive as well as other sporting events. It doesn't compare to hd and the stream is mediocre but it is free for 2 weeks. Also, there is a ton of other content there. You can watch videos of guys using playon with different devices on youtube.

Hey crush, would you be able to advise on what "channel" we select? I tried searching MSG and Knicks and found nothing.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Bad quality, but I was able to stream the entire Knicks - Raptors game live on my laptop in realtime no delay at all. Figure it'll suffice until they hopefully settle:

There is a menu bar across the top of the page. Go to scripts and you will see several choices drop down. Select Live Sports and download it to your computer. You will be asked to restart playon in the general settings window that pops up after you have completed the download. To do this I just had to click on the green running message on the right to stop it. I then clicked on it again and it started playon running again. This is neccesary to make 'live sports' a channel.

I would recommend setting up playon first. I used a Wii and saved playon to favorites on the internet channel. When I select it I have a display of all of the available channels. After you load live sports you will need to find the icon in your playon channels. There are quite a few sporting events offered on live sports so you have to look a bit. I beleive the guy that wrote the script somehow got league pass on there. Also I had two choices to connect to the game. My first choice took me to the Nets/Pacers. The second link worked fine. I am hoping it works again tomorrow. Let me know if you have any questions.

If you're stuck with No MSG and have a FB account, help spread the word.

I'm in, this is exactly what we need. How do you think Verizon got rid of their stupid $2 fee? BofA got rid of their potential fee's for using debit cards because of bad press/media too.

Maybe the page needs a goal, like X number of people agree to cancel their service if MSG is not put back on by XX/XX/2012? Or by a certain amount of missed games?

If the TWC customers get loud enough, things will change. How stupid is it that we cannot watch our LOCAL basketball team because of the cable company? In many cases we do not have a choice who we sign up for. Most apartment buildings won't allow a Dish to be installed and in many cases TWC is the only option since FiOS is not available everywhere yet.

I believe the fault to lay with MSG. Tme Warner agreed to increase the fee by 6.5%. It's MSG's stance that since Time Waner threw a boat load of cash for the Lakers deal that a 53% increase sounds about right. MSG pulled the plug.

I like the cancel service part but I personally don't have anywhere to go. Amazing that I went from the possibility of no NBA season to can't watch my damn team from the comfort of my home.

I agree that it's mainly MSG causing this trouble. But I can't dump them (since they also own the Knicks). If this isn't resolved in the next few days, the FCC should ste in and regulate this industry. It's ridiculous that one cable operator (Cablevision) can disenfranchise a fan base for multiple sports teams because of a dispute with a competing cable operator (TWC). It smacks of anti-trust issues and must be dealt with immediately.

And FUCK YOU Dolan!

You may have a point here, would be interested to see how that would play out legally. You can't do league pass, because it's blacked out right?
I forgot that you can add plugins that may help. But you are better served just waiting for someone here to post the link.
