  • Fast breaks expose a weak connection first. If the picture smears in transition, drop from 4K to HD.
  • West Coast tip-offs can run past midnight Eastern; catch-up lets you finish the game the next morning.

  • Keep the league channel and the national networks next to each other in favorites.
