Don't know... since this was specifically a Dish press release, I doubt they'd advertise it being free elsewhere 
I would expect, though, that anyone offering NBA League Pass would have some sort of promo/freebie to entice new subscribers.

Ya'll just need to look a few headlines down on the main page. DTV is doing it too. So its really not a ground breaking thing. Its not like Dish is all powerfull in this or anything  |
