Hey guys,

Not card related but thought I'd post my first NBA experience from my recent trip to LA, Vegas and NYC last month.

the 4 games I saw were

Lakers vs Suns
Clippers vs Rockets
Nets vs Rockets
Knicks vs Warriors


First up was the Lakers game where I was 2 rows from the Lakers bench and very close to Shaq and Will Farrell, awesome experience!! I watched the game after on leaguepass and could see myself on every play lol, game wise... it was the worst I saw... Kobe stunk it up for 4points! but the Lakers got the W and free Tacos.

Asik is a Monster in person!

first game in NY was the new Brooklyn arena which was awesome! Jayz was in the house, Harden and Lin were awesome that night.

onto the best game by far Knicks vs Warriors. Curry went OFF dropping 54, while melo had a quiet 35 and JR smith had 28 or so but the atmosphere was out of this world, everyone gasping everytime Curry threw up a shot everyone knew it was going in. What a display! also a bonus...I caught a Knicks T shirt they threw out into the crowd during Time outs :)

Lakers were really expensive, $600
the rest of the games from $200 - $400 we were centre court lower bowl row 8 for the clippers game, 10 for the nets, and 11 for knicks
those seats were probably better than the laker ones, it was quite hard to see the other end of the court with the players being so tall in the way sometimes.

Cool thanks mate, so they sell much merchandise?

Yeah man, they have big shop there and stands, go to the main shop inside it gets mad busy so make sure you get there early, I went around 1 hour before tip off, hung out at the shop got some food and watched shoot around.
also a tip I found out at the Nets game our tickets included all you can eat free food and drink we ate so much that night!!!! (you can see me scoffing down chilli cheese fries on Nom Nom Cam) beer is not free though... just give them your ticket to scan instead of getting out money as they won't ask.

oh foam fingers are $8 in LA about $10 in NY
 
Sweet Pics man, maybe I should load mine up.
Saw Celtics and Lakers in Boston. It was mad fun, looks like you are a Lakers fan but I enjoyed watching Celtics take it to them in early February.
Also caught Knicks and Sacremento, think I was row 17 so was plenty close.

Rodman91, just make sure you take your passport as they wouldn't serve me unless I have it. Even though I am in my late 20's.

Great atmosphere. Off the NBL game tonight, Wildcats and Breakers. Just doesn't compare to the NBA. But still a keen Wildcats supporter.

Wish I was able to see Harden killing it though, but none of the matches lined up with travel plans.
