attending NBA games

yeah this upcoming week will be insane in phoenix. i work right next to the waste management open and have to get a special parking pass and stuffs. I've got tix for suns/dubs on march 9!

nice! I saw them play Suns last year, would be up for it again this year if can snag a good deal.

would love to see an nba game at some point. never been.

do it!

I dreamt last night that I went to a Knicks game, worst nightmare I've had in a while. :o

lol, I was at Knicks-Warriors, got free suite tix through work. It wasn't a completely terrible game, especially considering Melo didn't even play. But Curry also wasn't particularly exciting, and he was who I wanted to see most.

Luxe experience was fun, never done that before.

so far away from the court tho

MSG box seats aren't bad

200's in this chart

Much better than Yankee Stadium box suites, for example

Better proportions

Suite in the 30's -- view was great actually, towards the corner, pretty close-in.

i mean i support the ripping off of corporations but true nba luxury is being close to the court

guess its better than being all the way up how they are in a lot of arenas but directly beneath the beginning of the upper bowl + snacks ehh

needless to say strictly for corporate dbags who get off on being treated special/dont know/care abt basketball

if ur job really cared abt u they wld invest in some better seats

Vendor fwiw, not my employer.

Think what u want but they were good seats. Thing is there are also only two rows of seats in the boxes so you're right at the front of the level.

It's the front of the 200 level.

aka directly below the upper bowl (the 300 level)

i mean the upper deck pretty much just hangs over them

i mean theyre fine id take em for free just wanted to point out how they are the epitome of garbage corporate culture that has ruined the live game experience

well that's MSG especially, yeah, but they are not far from the top of the lower bowl and with an unobstructed view, so they're pretty good -- as good as the seats I splurged for at Barclay's. Actually the worst thing about them imo is the way they feel a little bit cut off from the bowls -- makes the game feel a lot lower energy. Or maybe that was just Knicks fans at an inevitable blowout.

yeah i mean they cut you off from the riff raff ~on purpose~

I really want to go to an NBA game in OKC or somewhere where the crowd gets ridiculously loud, tired of these blase NYC crowds

if either of the ny teams ever get good lol

of course my standing offer to take any ILH poster to a blazer game at a moments notice exists in perpetuity, one must simply come to Oregon in the winter

Don't know if I can brave that parking lot

yes obv the one problem being it must be on a day where I don't want to feel particularly cold

If I do go I will bring you your very own Canada Goose
