So basically I went to the Lakers vs Warriors game last night in San Diego and overall here are my thoughts on the 3-quarter game.

As a local San Diego fan, it was great to be at the game last night. People say that the game sucked and wanted a refund (in which i'll get to later), but overall for me it was fun. I got to go to the Lower Level and also the atmosphere was overall great even though the game was cancelled.

To start off with pre-game, since I had lower seats, I got to go to the lower floor, a little bit closer to the actual court. I was basically setting my territory behind the Lakers bench to get a glimpse of shootaround and probably get some autographs. Luckily, I got some. I got Mark Madsen's Autograph (you know, the guy who did this after they won the championship):



And also got Bill Macdonald's Autograph, the TWCSN Commentator:



It was hell of fun and also Andre Igoudala (Iggy) waved at me back after showing my "The City" Hoodie! Hell it was so much fun pre-game.

Anyways, the actual game. There was some delay during the game which they figured out the issue of players slipping. But yeah, let's go to the Highlights.

Chef Curry and the Warriors went early in the first with Stephen making 3/5 in the 1st quarter, but the Lakers were able to come back and fight to tie it up 31-31 in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, it was really same pace quarter till Nick Young aka SwaggyP gained momentum to prove the skeptics at VVCC that he wasn't a terrible player. So basically he was subbed in the game and started to get hot making 3 straight jumpers in the final 2 minutes of the second quarter, which got the momentum going.

In the third quarter, I got to see Metta World Peace aka Ron Artest aka Panda's Friend aka The People's Elbow. He did very good actually and really great to see him back in action with #37. Needs to work on offense though. The highlight of the game was Larry Nance Jr. posterizing Festus Ezeli to bring them huge excitement from the Lakers and even the Warriors. The game concluded later when Leonardo Barbosa slipped and basically looked like he injured himself. After people started cleaning up the floor, they said it wasn't viable and Byron Scott and Luke Walton (taking over for Steve Kerr) announced to end the game due to an unplayable floor. After that, every fan was jeering with them chanting "REFUND! REFUND! REFUND!"

Overall, here is the final outcome:



Classy move by the Lakers.

Overall though, it was a fun game rocking out in my James Worthy throwback jersey and also seeing some stars out there. Sad to see Kobe not there and prolly the last time if not THE last time. This also might be the last game for the NBA in Valley View Casino Center, really hope they move to Viejas Arena though where San Diego State plays. Other than that, been good and really hope there will be another next year!

My overall thoughts though:



And also here's "The Best Ticket" with my 2 autographs, man I have a great story to tell about this in the future lol:
