On TV, I thought that it should have been louder down the stretch when we were struggling. Both players and refs feed off that stuff.
I was 11 rows up, damned near mid-court. It was by no means "rocking". The crowd, to me, was tentative the entire time and cheered almost as if they were as afraid as the players were. To each their own, I guess. But I've been in TB when the crowd made a difference, and they didn't yesterday.
It was rocking. Was it the rockingest it’s ever been? Probably not, but I quit carrying my decibel meter in there during the Cuonzo era.
Then some frogs is going to have to grow up fast or them get a magical draw. They aren’t that talented.
It looked like everyone had their hands in their lap just waiting to be entertained. At least how I perceived it on tv
