Just wondering if there's a technical reason the addon requires an international account, if that's indeed the case?

Would love to use LP within Kodi but have a US account.

Thanks in advance for your time!

The reason for this is that the NBA has blackout restrictions in place, which IIRC are enforced by IP address. I live in Europe but when I visited family in the US, I was unable to watch games even with my account being registered here.

Regardless, the add-on isn't working at all since the 22-23 season, thanks to the fact that the NBA changed the underlying streaming service from Neulion to Microsoft. The entire backend API has changed and the streams themselves now have DRM. Basically, the add-on needs to be completely rewritten, and nobody has had the time/energy for that undertaking.

Got it! Unfortunate but totally understandable. Thanks for the reply.
