Section 1 won't put you directly on the floor but you'll at least be behind the scorer's table and the visiting team's bench. It's a great spot to be in. Comfortable padded seats, friendly staff and we were practically center court. Some fans may perceive these seats to sit too close to the floor and there is such thing. You can't really see the plays form all that well like you can from higher up but I think intimacy is the main selling point for these seats. Would you mind sitting 8 feet from Kobe Bryant and Dwight Howard for 48 minutes? Ask yourself that.
