This is a scheduled game. [name edited] has tickets from $11 or so. be prepared to be way up in the stands for that money though.

We always go to the Amway Centre and buy our tickets on the door in advance - this way we get to see the plan for the seating.

It is pre season for the NBA but it will still be a good game.

The new Amway Centre is due to open in October so not sure if this game will be played in the old or new centre.

Personally I dislike the NBA games, as do many of my American friends who understand basketball.(I played a lot) Whilst the skill levels are undisputed, the players are a law unto themselves and essentially ignore the laws of the game, with the Umpires too scared to call them for technical fouls.

IMO college basketball is better.

Robert agree the NCAA games are far better than the professional games. Robert had to enter draws for Tarheel tickets as the games were so popular.

We go and order them from Stub Hub and pick them up when we get to the game.

We have been to a few Orlando Magic games and buy our tickets from the Official Ticket office at the junction of the 535 and Poinciana Blvd. Each time we have paid in excess of $70 to get reasonable seats.
