| - "Don't tell me Matt flew to Phoenix to watch a Warrior's game?"
"You bet I did!"
With playoff admiration, the Golden State Warriors are playing the Phoenix Suns in the rattlesnake city and must beat Suns and their final game versus Seattle to stay alive and qualify them to be in the playoff. In order to be in the playoff, the Denver Nuggets, who is also competing with the Warriors for the final playoff spot must lose their remaining games in order to qualify themselves into the playoffs.
Going to the U S Airway Center and Chase Field (D-backs home), which are next door to each other, are really walking distance from Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix; so if you staying in the downtown area, renting a car is not necessary. Or if you are lazy, you can take the train-line to the arena.
I'll come clean; the venue and crib for the Phoenix Suns is a lot nicer than my Oracle Arena. I know it's about time that my Warriors need a new arena. It's a matter of time that the city of Oakland will discuss and approve the expensive plan. The US Airway Center has an atmosphere of a hotel and casino. It's not a bad place for a concert performance or a Yelp-event!
I was very fortunate to obtain ticket for the Phoenix Sun's game versus my Golden State Warriors from the ticket booth. Although I spent $35.00 on a "nose-bleed" seat, the seat was good enough for me to cheer my Golden State Warriors to a victory. This is my third NBA city and arena that I've visited (Sacramento and now Phoenix). Both of those cities were with my Warriors as the visiting team. Even cooler, that I was very thrilled to see my team with their cool orange jersey.
Sadly, my Warriors not only lost the game, but also officially eliminated from any playoff contention. Now I need to find other hobby (s) to keep me occupy for the next season. I'll still watch the NBA Playoffs, but won't be the same without my Warriors. Still I did had fun going to another NBA city to watch a game.
