Trying to buy floor seats on the 'hub for an upcoming game, but they only provide section and row number, no seat numbers. Sold my lower bowl tickets for the Golden State game to put that cash towards cheap floor seats against a sucky team for me and my son - seems like it would be cool to experience once. I'm assuming the floor seats are numbered just like regular seats. Is there any particular reason none of the sellers will list seat numbers for floor tickets?

I doubt you'll get seats literally on the floor. Those suckers are retarded expensive. You can be on the floor for $1500 a ticket, or the row right behind it for $500 a ticket.
I got seats on the first row behind the Pels bench one time. Ajinca is one tall mamma jamma. I want to see we were row 2 on the ticket, but we were actually more in line with the actual third row, even though the only people in front of us was the Pels bench. DVR'd the game and saw myself on tv several times.

You'd have to check out the map, but I think the real actual row 1 on the floor is row AA.

And yeah it's a pretty cool experience.

Ended up finding a couple resale tickets on ticketmaster that showed the seat numbers. Paid $214 each for two rows behind the Pels bench, around the middle of the row.
Ticketmaster fees are ridiculous though - cost another $72 in fees.

ETA: I hope Uncle Al doesn't turn around and slap my kid when he won't stop yellng "Call a fricking timeout!" all game long.

Ask your ticket rep, they usually give me floor seats 1 time a year with season tickets, always negotiated it before I got the season tickets

I started by going to a few games a year and sitting on the floor. I loved it. If you talk to a sales person, get them to email you deals, you can get front row for as low as $300 a ticket to some games. Second row you can get for $150 per. Those seats come with dinner and refreshments in the club area. The tickets are way more on stub hub. What happens is most people call the salesmen to get rid of the tickets for them like the day before or trade them out. If you alert them, they will call you the day before and make you offers. For a few years I did this and sat on the floor 3-4 times a year for under face value.
Front row isn't the value though. They are way more. The value is base line, not behind the bench (tall guys), row 2.

How many lower bowls do you have? We might could work a trade. Or if you put your email up I'll send you an email and we can talk about it.

I had courtside season tickets in 2015.

One of the coolest sporting events you’ll ever go to. Hearing the chatter between the players is awesome.

Definitely a cool experience. My company has floor seats and I go every now and then. You get a new and real appreciation for how huge those dudes are

Floor seats do have numbers and the first row is AA then BB.

It’s cool to sit near the bench but the coaches get in your way a lot.
