If you are not already a season ticket holder then how would you get playoff tickets for this year by getting season tickets for next year?

Thats what I'm trying to understand, something about that doesnt sound correct. But I could be wrong.
 
why did I get no Pm's? Oh Well, I just sold them on ebay for a shitload more than I was offering it to you guys.
 
I just got my notification to pick up the tickets in the email. :ghoti:
 
Yeah, we can pick them up at the Lakers game on April 10th!!

My wife is having a huge 50th birthday party on Friday April 24th, with a band and all. But I've got a bad feeling that we might have a game that night. Now, if we could get HCA it would be an away game and I could DVR it.

Bottom line - my wife says I have to be at the party . . .

Anybody know if home playoff games will be on KGW (or TNT) so I can at least DVR it (cough) comcast sucks (cough)?

I think 1st round games are pretty well televised.. especially with the 40 games in 40 nights thing on tnt.. I hope I'm right cause I cant get comcast... bastards.
 
It will be an east coast series that TNT will ignore...always is the case

TNT does alright with the west... some of their early games on doubleheaders are the games that are played down in Texas (as far east as you can go while still being in the Western Conference I guess) Espn is the garbage where you will catch Hawks Vs Bobcats or something.. I hate espn televised nba.. I miss Nba on NBC soooooo much!

I haven't recieved an email from my ticket rep as of yet. Where can we pick our tickets up at, the season ticket customer service desk, on the 10th?

Thanks in advance!
 
I believe NBATV shows some playoff games as well. If they show Portland it looks like people out here will get screwed.

I haven't got that email and I'm surprised that they would send it out when we haven't mathematically clinched a playoff birth.

There will probably be a torrent of the game if it's not on KGW, so at least you'd be able to download a video of the game, probably a few hours to a day afterwards.

Playoff tickets are not included in your season ticket price, obviously, so what season ticket holders are getting is first dibbs on tickets for the playoffs. I believe (You'd obviously want to check with your rep or whoever you talk to) that by signing up for season tickets next year, they will allow you to order playoff tickets for this year.

I just bought my playoff tickets today and I got that offer because I am a quarter season ticket holder, and I can confirm that my seat price is normal ticket price for the 1st rd, then goes up. My seats are $18, $23, $30, and $50 by round.

What does that mean - torrent? Where is that? (Not that I'd be able to wait until the next day before checking the scores)

If you didn't get the email it's because your seats have been seized for the benefit of the media. Bummer dude.

Are you a full season ticket holder?
 
Yes, jerkin'

That said, I did see that there are a couple of sections in the 200 level that do not get playoff tix because they are reserved for media - not sure what's up with that but I assume they knew going in that they don't get playoff seats.
 
Really? Where did you see that at? I wonder what happens for STHs who sit in those sections.

Tince, I hadn't recieved mine either so I emailed my rep and he sent me back the same information provided here in the thread. My email address needed updating, perhaps they've had an issue with your address also. I will say this, my season ticket rep is great about emailing me back right away whenever I had a question. I'd try getting in touch with yours, as apperantley they'd like to know how you'll be picking up your tickets.
 
Actually, there is something about season ticket holders losing seats to the media, as this February column from the O describes:

http://www.oregonlive.com/tailgate/index.ssf/2009/02/dont_mind_me_but_these_seats_a.html


Not long ago, Johnson got a package from the Trail Blazers. In it was everything he'd need to renew his tickets for next season, and all the information he'd want about playoff tickets for this season.

The first thing he noticed? His seat might be relocated for the playoffs. Why? Media seating, he was told.

And a problem mandated by NBA corporate in New York.

"Technically," she said, "everything is the league designate, but in the playoffs they really come in and take control of our manifest."

"Thanks," . . . For making sure we, the media, have proper seating. But did the league really need four sections? "Usually we have to kill two seats for every media member," McIntyre said. . . . They have to put up tables and monitors . .
The NBA doesn't need four sections -- unless we're talking about the Finals, when 500media seats are required -- and they don't take up the full section, just parts of each.

Thanks, I'll shoot him an email. I've had good luck communicating with mine as well...
 
The article seems to be saying that all of Sections 208, 209, 223, 224 are "relocated" for the playoffs. Maybe it's really just "as needed" (i.e. they don't need as many for the first round and for the finals), but still - where the hell can they relocate a bunch of people to, and potentially four sections of people?

Has anyone on here been relocated, or been told they might be?
 
Aren't those the sections behind the backboards? Why the hell woudl they make that the media seats? Sit the media up in the 300 level, and let fans move down.
