I am moving to San Antonio in 10 days. my question is I am getting directv and have never had the league pass before, are the home games still in hd?
Do the games get blacked out at all? thanks

I'm only familiar with Comcast and Cox, but the only blackouts were for games that a local affiliate had. So when they play the Blazers (or LA when I lived in SoCal) I have to watch on the local channel. The only HD on my cable is the game on NBA TV, DirectTV may be different, just check their channel assignments and make sure there are the same amount of channels for both SD or HD, if there isn't then its safe to assume you won't get every game in HD.

I'm not sure what the rules are, specifically. Supposedly there are quite a few Kings games on FoxSportsNet, but each time I click over, they're blacked out, even when the Nuggets aren't playing. It might be even trickier in the San Antonio/Houston/Dallas cluster. Good luck.

Of course, if you get satellite, I think you can somehow have your billing address out of state, and have the physical address at your new home, which would alleviate some of the potential problem, but I'm not sure of the legality of that, nor how one would go about such a plan.
