Top Five NBA Arenas You Need to Visit

Aaron Smith
The National Basketball Association, better known as the NBA, has quite a few very nice arenas that are home to their teams. Some of the newer arenas have some nice new bells and whistles that are very attractive to many fans, but there are also some of the older arenas that have the mystique that would bring a fan from hundreds of miles away.

The top five NBA arenas

1. Madison Square Garden- New York- This is the most legendary of all the arenas in the NBA. History has been made here time and again and it has been home to some of the biggest names in basketball as well as some of the biggest entertainers in history. The Knicks may not be providing the best of teams to watch, but they are improving. Even if the game isn't a great one, Madison Square Garden is well worth a visit.

2. Energy Solutions Arena- Salt Lake City- The home of the Utah Jazz, this is probably the best of the newer arenas as far as how much you will enjoy the game. The crowd here can be deafening, which is part of the reason it is so difficult for opponents to defeat the Jazz in their home arena. The venue is also kept up very well and is in a nice area.

3. Conseco Fieldhouse- Indianapolis- Conseco Fieldhouse is not a brand new arena, but you wouldn't know that when you enter the arena. The arena is beautiful and there are hardly any poor seats in the place. The entertainment at the game is above average and the court is spotless. This arena was designed extremely well!

4. Staples Center- Los Angeles- The Staples Center also has some of the most history involved with it as well as it hosts home games for both the Clippers and the Lakers. As a fan one perk of going to Laker games at Staples is to see hundreds of celebrities at every game. The building might not get as loud as some others, but it does have some pretty nice bells and whistles.

5. Pepsi Center- Denver- The Pepsi Center has gotten rave reviews from many people in the last few years as the Nuggets have improved their team and the arena has gotten more and more energy inside it. The architecture of the building is very well done and the entertainment and concessions are at the top of the NBA.
