The NBA playoffs are here, and fans are excited to watch their teams try to compete for a championship.

But if you cheer for the Cleveland Cavaliers or Orlando Magic, that was a bit harder to do on Monday night. Unlike the other two postseason games on the slate, that game is only carried on NBA TV, which requires a League Pass subscription to watch.

To make matters worse for fans based out of Cleveland, Orlando or the surrounding areas, the game was also blacked out locally. It was only broadcast by the local Bally Sports networks, which is not included in the packages for YouTube TV and several other carriers.

As you can imagine, not being able to watch a playoff game locally was not particularly well received by fans of both teams, who took to social media to voice their frustrations.
