Those were my guesses as well. I was sure of the first and I thought that was the Staples in the second but didn't know it was near a baseball park. Is that Dodger Stadium?

I'm gonna guess Conseco Field House for the third.

Yeah, that's Dodger Stadium. I didn't realize either, but the stadium is like a 10-15 minute drive from Staples.
I also agree with your last guess of the 3rd one being Conseco Field House.

It is not in California, not Conseco Field House. Here is a closer view.

Suns?

Anybody notice how Staples Center looks like Cobra Command HQ? Or how 'bout The Eye of Sauron

Nope. Not the Suns. The insignia on the top of the building might help you figure it out.

The Eye of Sauron ha ha

I don't want to end with Dallas, so here is one more photo of the AT&T Center, home of the Spurs.
