It will cost more to watch Lakers
Ticket prices go up for the third year in a row. Sasha Vujacic, Ronny Turiaf haven't signed offer sheets.

The Lakers increased ticket prices across the board for a third consecutive season, a relatively unsurprising action after the team paid almost $5 million in luxury taxes on last season's payroll and faced a larger tax hit next season.

Courtside seats were raised from $2,300 to $2,500 a game, an 8.7% hike that moved beyond the typical annual increase of 4.5%.


Seats in six lower-level sections between the baskets -- 101, 102, 110, 111, 112 and 119 -- were raised from $230 to $245, a 6.5% increase that also topped the team's normal action on such seats.

The league average for ticket-price increases is usually 3% to 4%.

Other tickets in the lower bowl at Staples Center will be $210, $147, $110, and $85, increases of 4.8% to 6.3%.

Tickets in the upper bowl were raised slightly to $40 or $28, not including 500 seats that are a league-mandated $10.

Meanwhile, today was the first day the Lakers could officially announce a free-agent signing, but they hadn't agreed to terms with any players as of Tuesday night.

The Lakers hope to re-sign restricted free agents Sasha Vujacic and Ronny Turiaf but don't want to stray too far over the luxury-tax threshold, which will be $71.15 million next season. The Lakers have already committed $75.1 million for only 10 players and will pay a dollar in taxes for every dollar they are over the threshold.

Vujacic and Turiaf continued to pursue offers from other teams but have not signed offer sheets, which the Lakers would then have seven days to match.

OT: I'm neither a fan of the Lakers nor the Knicks but watching any Lakers game, I think, is quadruple the fun compared to watching the lowly Knicks which as of the present roster is just a level up compared to top NCAA teams. simply put, more bang for your buck.

the irony of it all is that, Knick ticket price is about 20% more expensive than the Lakers across the board. surprisingly though, it's always full house every Knick home game. one reason maybe is that the Knick home, which is the Madison Square Garden, is "THE" mecca of basketball. probably why basketball fans just come in and cherish the experience not minding the gaping hole in their pockets what with the lousy and boring game and all.....
