    I'm in the Seattle area these days and picked up tickets to go see the Trailblazers 1st home playoff game in the 1st round, taking the chance that the Blazers hold off the Warriors and stay in 5th place so I see the Rockets.

    I'm ridiculously happy because if the Rox played anyone except the Blazers, I wouldn't be able to get to a game.

    So who else is going to a playoff game?

    If I can get in on someone's work group or elsewise, I'd be willing to fly down. I haven't see a game at the Toyota Center. Heck, I haven't seen a home game since 1991 when I last was in Houston.

    Ya'll are lucky it is not a 3-2-1-1 format. Otherwise, you only have one chance to watch em play because we would sweep them :)

    3-2-1-1 has never existed as a format. It's either 2-2-1-1-1 or it's 2-3-2. Both teams are always guaranteed 2 home games in a playoff series.

    Exactly. So I should be able to see two games in Portland, including game 4 when the Rockets finish their sweep. :grin:

    I live in SA right now.

    I will buy those tomorrow if I get a chance. I think the Rockets will be there no problem.

    I'm living in Seattle these days too and am praying we get Portland in the first round. Where did you buy the tickets?

    What exactly are you considering, man? DO IT.

    I'd LOVE to see a playoff game in an opposing arena. Hell, any game in an opposing arena would be fun. That's one thing I've never been able to do for any of my teams.

    I feel the exact same way about seeing the Rockets in the Toyota Center. I wish I could see them, maybe that ends up being a trip next year.
