    I've never sat in the upper deck. If I lived closer to the garden, I would go more often and sit up there.

    Along the sideline, from near courtside to the very top of the 300 section.

    This season I sat down in the 100 section once as opposed where I normally am in the 300's and it was a different ball game down there.. sure it was cool to see the players expressions and being so close.. but being next to all these people in suits and people who didnt get into the game as much was disappointing. I'm used to high fiving people I dont know way up in the 300's lol. so seatwise obviously lower.. but energywise and atmosphere I love the 300's

    I prefer being as close to center court as possible over the ends of the court. I've sat in the wheelchair section on the 100 level and that is my favorite place to watch from, but I can't afford to do that too often. My stepfather and I have had half-season tickets in the wheelchair section of 306 the past two seasons. It isn't center court, but it is much cheaper and still good. Also, the wheelchair sections on the 100 and 200 levels are at the top of the levels, but the wheelchair section on the 300 level is at the bottom of the level, so the seats aren't that much higher up, but are much cheaper. For the money, I think we might have the best seats in the house.

    I'd like to know this as well. Also, is there a way to put somebody in a wheelchair down there? Do they use regular seats or folding chairs down there? I'm sure I can afford those seats even less than the normal 100 level seats, but it might be interesting to know if I can find a way to afford to do it once and whether I can find a place to sit if I can find a way to pay for my ticket.

    I've always like the 200 level seats on the angle, but the two times I've sat in the 100 level it's been right behind the Blazers bench, which adds a whole new dimension when you can overhear Nate talking during the timeouts.

    I've sat all over the Rose Garden (well, never courtside, but close). Our regular seats are in the 6th row of the 300 level about halfway between midcourt and the corner. We can see the entire court from there and the fans get really loud.

    I have a friend who's an NBA ref. I won't name names, other than to say it's not Dick Bavetta. When he's in town doing a game he gives me his tickets. They are lower 100 section. It's a nice change of pace from our regular seats, but I wouldn't be able to afford to take my three kids to a dozen games a year at those prices.

    We've also sat in the very top row a couple of times. My kids do the summer reading/free ticket program every year and those tickets usually end up being in the top two rows.

    Heck I'll sit anywhere and have a good time. The atmosphere, the excitement and hanging out with my kids always makes it worthwhile.

    And, over the last two seasons, I've taken the kids to 22 Blazers games and they've only seen the Blazers lose once (double OT loss to the Clipps).
