No, it's not the Forum but section 101 at the Staples Center will leave you saying wow. I sat here with a few buddies for the Timberwolves game last January. Hard to believe that was a year ago.
We felt close to every play and were in row 16, the second to last row, so we had quick access to the concourse for bathroom breaks and food. Outside of our section was a concession called Staples' Staples which is a nice little play on words. They have everything from nachos to ice cream to Italian sausage. Oh and there's beer too.

The Staples Center is fairly large for an arena that hosts concerts as well. With the sound as good as it was for the game, I would imagine the accoustics are great for concerts but I think it depends on the artist.

Finding section 101 was extremely easy. Just enter thru the Figueroa Street entrance and turn right and 101 will be on your left. The arena is easy to navigate but I would imagine there are still those select few that end up getting lost trying to find their seats.
You can expect to pay anywhere from $80-$500 per ticket in this section. It really depends on who the Clippers are playing and which row you get. Any row in the teens will be the cheapest seats.
