If you have WNBA league pass can you watch all WNBA games?

Yes, but when I try to access it from my TV, I get some message like "need to download adobe in order to access that function". When I try to download it, I get another error message saying "your system does not support that function" or some such nonsense...
 
11,210 attendance for Wings at Mercury. Stevens had a nice block on Griner from behind. Not much offensively for Azura. Mercury won 86-78. Gurich is going to be good. Liz Cambage is a nice passer. Skyler not much of a threat outside. Taurasi 26 points. MVP was Bonner. She’s back.

We tried last night’s game on our ipad and it would not load. Did anyone else have that problem?

I think League Pass works for most games, but maybe not all.
 
Phoenix hit more threes than Dallas, mostly from Diana. Glory shot only 5-15 and Skylar only 6-19, though Sky did have a bunch of assists. Phoenix looks better, and Dee looks motivated.

I have same problem, cannot watch the game in my PC (both Chrome and IE were not working).
 
I have Amazon fire and tried to get league Pass to work on it with no luck. Using either Silk or the Firefox brower I could sign in to my account but it didn't register that I had purchased "pass" for this season like it does through my computor?????. Could not get in touch with anyone not even through the E-mail address the had listed. These people just out right suck.

Do you have an HDMI port on tv and computer? If so you can connect them and you can watch on your smart tv.

The Wings will be better as they get used to playing with Cambage again. Nice to watch two of the best bigs in the WNBA play each other.

Not 100% sure, but I think it is all games. Some games however, are not available live.

Agreed. And they are very good friends. They constantly talked to each other during the game and the hug they gave each other at the end of game was sportsmanship at it's best. I am sure that sharing the experiences of being 6' 8" is the underlying reason.

For me, the WNBA continues to get more interesting. There are very few teams that I do not find at least somewhat interesting and fun to follow. UConn alums flooding the league is only part of the story.
 
Chicago Sky with a solid win over the Fever today.

Diamond DeShields had an impressive stat line: 18 points on 7-11 shooting, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, only 1 turnover.
Allie Quigley had 19 points and 5 assists.
Big Mama Stef had 11 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists.

I have also been having trouble with my android phone and android tablet.

For some reason I can't chrome cast a live game or a replay to my smart tv.

I emailed league support and they responded back quickly with this statement:

Hello,

Thank you for contacting support.

Apologies for any issues you have encountered trying to access through your android device. We have received some similar reports from other customers which we are currently investigating.

We are not seeing this report for other devices or PC access so if you have those options we would recommend trying those in the meantime.

Best Regards,

WNBA league pass support.

Here is the email I used hope this helps:)

Sky vs Fever = Gabby and DeShields both start. Gabby 4 pts (2-7), 6 rebs, 2 stls, 1 to in 28 mins.

Diana looked fresh and rested

Gabby and Stef are going to have some great chemistry. Chicago is well coached. I noticed last year how well they pass for makeable baskets. They won without Vanderwhoever? DeShields was very good. Played within herself and her first basket was a marvelous one on one drive with a twisting spin finishing lefthanded
 
Kelsey Mitchell has no intermediate game. Wondering how she will pan out. Gabby going to Chicago is soooo much better fit for her than if Indiana took her. As long as the ND (Natalie ?) center is the best post Indiana can put on the floor they are going to struggle. She plays to her potential just not enough skill and looks undersized. Indiana should have used one of their first round picks on Gulich. Muhvanga doesn’t have the game Gulich does or the upside. Drafting two guards in the first round instead of Gulich will haunt them.

They let Jen Hamson go which is further proof that Pokey doesn't have a clue on how to coach a dominant center.

Indiana is one team that is still boring unless Vivian and Mitchell play like vets. Team is hard to watch for a whole game. Pokey has her hands full. I predict 10 wins or less. Does the WNBA play 34 games this year?

I agree. Watching the Fever is like having one. Also, I do not get why they hired Pokey Chatman and even made her GM as well. I don't think she did a good job at Chicago and while I am just spit-balling, I think the coaching situation may have helped (not saying the only reason) push EDD out the door. And watching her on the sidelines so reserved when things are not going well drives me a bit nuts. Get Tamika to coach the Fever.

If I remember correctly, all the WNBA games are there except those played on ESPN. You may need access to the ESPN3 website for those games. I think the Twitter games are also on League Pass, but I could be wrong about that. But you just go to Twitter for them. An HDMI cable from the computer to the TV is good to give you a bigger screen to watch the games. I hope you enjoy the games.
 
Seattle, Indiana, and Las Vegas are probably the 3 worst teams in the league.
 
I saw a little bit of all the games, a lot of some games. With the UConn women on hiatus right now, the WNBA is a great filler.
I'm loving it!!! It's fun to watch all of the rookies (especially ours) play, and see how they're adapting to play at the next level. :D
