Due to the Kobe Bryant affair, LA Lakers away games should be more exciting and controversial than ever. Will it be difficult to get Lakers tickets in your neck of the woods?

Lakers tickets here in Philadelphia were always difficult to obtain. I attended the 76ers-Lakers game last season and I was told it was the highest capacity crowd the First Union Center ever had. The traffic was truly horrible that night. But the 76ers won and it was the best game I've ever attended. I've noticed that people sometimes try to sell some of their season tickets one usenet, and many times I'll see the phrase - Some 76ers tickets for sale - No Lakers. It seems everyone wants to see that game. I'd love to go see the game this year, but I'm not optimistic about getting tickets.

Can't get Lakers/Kings tickets. Serious rivalry as you probably know!

Kobe should be in jail,and I fail to see why this will make the more exciting. Controversial,yes since he is a criminal and should have the right to earn that kind of living taken away from him.

Fans should boycott these animals since they think they can get away with it by crying on camera. The NBA wont get one cent out of me until Stern cleans the act up in that league.

Kobe should not be in jail as he has not been found guilty of any crimes. I personally have serious credibility issues with the accuser but I'm not on the jury so it's a moot point. We'll see how it plays out in court.

Lakers tix are always in high-demand. Last year, the Wizards tickets were also hot because of Michael Jordan.

New Orleans is a recent NBA addition and only those "big" games actually sell out the arena. I think the Lakers game is already sold out for 2003-04, in fact.

Kobe will just be one of the gang here in Portland. Had I renewed them, I expect I'd still have trouble giving my seats away.

Maybe Stoudamire can show Kobe how to smuggle marijuana on an airplane using tin foil wrapping!!!

We got front row for $100 in Hawaii.
