We need to destroy this sportal bullshit, I'm on my last tether. How dare they do this to us, we just want to read the box scores we are accustomed to, is that so hard???

the default url of NBA.com for other countries is the local NBA.com website. not the US one. and for most countries, their local NBA website sucks.

In the time it takes for them to update the scores I could have swam to America checked out each game and swam back.

It's horrid.

I suggest sending in as many complaints as you can be bothered to pen. I'll often send an angry tweet to @NBA. If enough of us do it, they might lean on Sportal and get them to step their game up.

The other thing I can suggest is.. to just not go there. Plenty of other places on the web to get boxscores

Nba.com sucks ass, stupid videos barely ever work and when they do there's too many adds...mobile site is a pile of crap also, scores slow as fu*k to update and half the time can't check the box score.

I sent a scathing email to NBA.com about 3 weeks ago complaining about this shit.

The return mail I got basically said "We don't give a **** cos Sportal is paying us money to be our Aussie website"

The Videos ALWAYS work for me, there are NO ADS, scores are always on point and I can check the box score at any time :lol

Looks like its your computer/connection that sucks :cheers:

yeah most annoying thing since it began. I always have to do it twice as well as the first time I miss the click to set US to default. The sportal site sucks balls.
