Question about NBA Finals tickets

I live in Orlando and will be flying to LA IF we make it to the Finals. How much will tickets start at for a single NBA finals ticket in LA? I went to Mavs @ Heat Game 3 of the Finals a couple years ago and it cost me $250 for last row behind the basket.

I think he probably thought you meant the last row in sects 115/116/105/106.(Rows A-N) Those would be that much.

Are you talking nosebleeders? Because I went to the Finals in 2000 for 210$ a ticket IIRC. It's probably more nowadays though.

laker tickets are insanely expensive, i think the highest in the league right now...i wouldnt be surprised if those tickets werent in the 1-2 range for last row behind the basket

Lakers-Celtics Finals....?
I wouldn't be surprised at all if the tickets are 2-3 G in th lower and middle bowl. Probably 3-400 in the nosebleeds.

I did a quick check on Stubhub for a few of the Denver games just out of curiosity, and they were insane -- $500 for upper deck, several grand for only decent seats in the lower bowl.

Heck, I had to pay $250 for only decent seats (35 rows up, in the corner of the lower deck) when the Celtics were in San Antonio, and those aren't exactly hard tickets to get.

Truly amazing how much it costs to get into an NBA arena these days.

Hell I had to pay $20 just to do a search on the damn ticket prices for staples.

i have season tickets which are split amongst several people and I do have Finals tickets. The face value is $87.

To give an example: my seats are sect. 307 row 1 seat 1, 2..
For the game 1 against the jazz, they sold for $200, face value $57.
Having row 1 is like $200 and row 2 is about $150 so there's a pretty big discrepency between rows 1 and 2. Not so much from there up.

When I saw the Cavs, those same seats went for about $250 when I got them for $27. Lakers/Suns Xmas, they went for about $200.
