Thinking of hitting up a Spurs game when they're in LA

[Venti Quattro]

Yea, you're right. On Stubhub, Clips starting @ $45. Lakers starting at an eye popping $166. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why the Lakers resigned Kobe.

The Lakers are but Kobe puts people on the Staples Center seats, plus it's Lakers town, etc, so they can afford to charge an exorbitant sum of money and justify it. Next season they're going to feel the pinch because there's no more Kobe retirement tour to celebrate over. They'd have to actually perform well to justify charging egregious prices for tickets.

If there's any time that the Clippers can justify raising ticket prices, it's next year

Got some pretty good seats for the Clipper game (5th row). I'd rather not meet any of you in person tho tbh

I have seats for the Lakers game. Fight me

Harlem, Apa, Dabom, Kawhi; all the same person; always doing the same lame race schtick.

Ok got.

FACTS: white folks live in the valley, Hispanics in East LA, Asians around downtown & black folks in south central. (I'm talking about the majority in each area otherwise Asians/Hispanics are everywhere)

The valley is really very diverse, and although there are more whites in the valley than in east la, south central or downtown, I don't think it is even 50%.

Reseda is in the valley, and it is full of latinos, for instance.

Per the following website, it is 41% white, 40% latino, etc.

Also, there are tons of middle easterners as well.

I had a couple days like that earlier this week and I paid the price for it later in the week. I'll have to monitor prices and see which is better. On the one hand, I'd get to size up a potential playoff rival in person. On the other hand, I'd get to watch the Spurs beat up on Kobe for one last time, live on a Friday night. I'm leaning towards the latter; but I'll have to see.

Update?

Any one else going?

Spurs vs. Clips tix at low 30's for some upper and as low as 50 for some lower (and still dropping). Not close enough to Staples to take advantage of the last minute prices though. Gonna watch on TV.

I can't imagine living near LA and not going to watch the Spurs all 4 times, especially with how cheap tickets are. When I was in LA, I was sitting 10 rows from the courts for about $100US.

I'm flying from Australia to watch them next month, driving to LA from an hour or two away would be nothing tbh

That's because your seats are in the ter.

Work hours didn't make getting home and rushing there late worth it. I might've made it work if I was up on all the smart phone nuances and what not (assuming that can be done). But I'm not worried; I could use the extra funds at this point, tbh.

I understand what you're saying about hitting up the Spurs, though. I don't know about the cheap tickets thought though. I imagine LA has among the most expensive tickets....

anyone who sits in the upper deck of Staples deserves to be shot.

Nah, I was about 8-10 rows back last year this exact same game for $110 a ticket.

This is the only game I've been glad to have watched from the upper deck (rather than on TV):

I am going tomorrow to clippers game ! got 300 section ticket for $50.

Condolences.
I went in 2003-4 at the height of the rivalry and paid $200 a seat or so.
Spurs got waxed from the start and were behind by 29 in the 3rd qtr.

Enjoyed game yesterday from upper deck although spurs lost. I was screaming loud when David West was making the run to get within 5/6 points.
Clearly Pop didnt want to win the game after he removed Boban while he was playing well and got us within striking distance. Dont understand why Diaw played in second half much.

Hope they win today for sure or we all will be very mad

Should have been in the bar at the half.

Atleast you had fun during that crap fest. I tuned out.

Kobe actually hit two shots in the last 20 seconds although one did not count, that was when he was clutch and actually could make a bucket in the last minute to save his life. Later in his career he was/is very bad in the clutch with a HORRIBLE %, must have been a great game.

Celts were down by 14 going into the 4th or something like that. It was crazy. I didn't think Kobe got the shot off on time watching it live. I still don't. The Walker bank was pandemonium. And the C's heard the refs call just before the ref signaled and started to sprint off the court like a riot was on their bogey. It was insane. It's a shame Pierce and Walker didn't play the Lakers in 02 Finals; that would've been fun.

I went to the Clippers Spurs game on Thursday and was rocking my Kawhi Leonard alternate jersey.

Man I remember back in the days whenever I went to Spurs away games at Staples Center there was only a handful of Spurs fans, and we would high five each other and exchange words. When I went on yesterday, the arena was filled with bandwagon fans. I now know how hardcore Laker fans feel like with their bandwagon fans now lol.

On a side note, you guys can add Luke from Modern Family to the list of celebrities that wear Spurs gear. I saw him yesterday with a Tim Duncan jersey!
