(no title)

Where is all the footage from? Is this allowed by the NBA? The quality of the footage is quite good.

This seems to be just searching the clip title. For example, if you search 'curry 3' ('curry three' returns nothing), it'll return things like "Curry 2' Finger Roll Layup (6 PTS) (Iguodala 3 AST)" or "Curry REBOUND (Off:0 Def:3)". If it could match the search query with play-by-play data, now THAT'd be cool.

>Is this allowed by the NBA?

The NBA may be the only US pro sports league that actually doesn't mind having highlights compiled and shared online. In fact, the current commissioner has said, "We’re incredibly protective of our live game rights, but for the most part highlights are marketing."[0]

My site (http://eaganr.com/nba/) used to do this. But they changed up their video URLs, wondering how Matetricks gets the new URLs.

I didn't build this, it's a site that's been trending on my news feed. Two people in my network built it over a weekend.
