WEAKEST crowd in the NBA

[TheGreatYacht]

Lebron was shooting free throws up 2 with less than a minute left... Weak ass crowd eating Whataburger

Refs were horrible. Crowd chanted a weak ass "Refs you suck" chant twice

... I don't think I've ever seen a Finals crowd NEVER get on their feet once

Lebron making crazy shots, crowd is ooing, aaing...and eating Whataburger

[cjw]

I guess you've never been to a game in LA

Refs tried to give is a game? How? By fouling out Leonard and keeping Manu and Green in foul trouble? Okay

[davidbowie]

yeah it's the crowds fault we missed those free throws

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

My only NBA game was in Portland for game 3 of the second round series. SA people can learn from Oregon people about being loud, that's for sure. I posted this earlier, but I was very disappointed in the SA crowd tonight.

They were louder in the regular season, but still way louder than any SA game.

[21209]

Yeah, like Miami's crowd is so much better.

I doubt Spurs fans would be leaving in droves when a game is still in doubt like theirs did in 6

[Russ]

I was at the game -- the crowd was fine.

The crowd at Game1 was all time great.

Anyone that thinks that Miami's crowd is better is utterly lacking perspective.

Miami's crowd is notoriously blase, leaving a finals game that their team then won.

Miami's arena is like a mausoleum during the actual championship ceremony.

its not just about leaving early, its about the enthusiasm, noise during the game. i'm sure the crowd has its moments, but its nothing like OKC for example. miami's in that regard is more active and louder than the spurs fans...

That Miami crowd shows up when it matters. Shit I remember Spurs fans were singing victory during Game 6 on here, twitter, etc... You know they're going to be louder than today's weak sauce crowd

[spurraider21]

How many Miami games have you attended?
you can tell by watching the games. anybody can see the Warriors and OKC have a great crowd... or the old Kings fans during the cowbell days. similarly, i can compare what i've seen in spurs games to heat games.

[DMX7]

They were absolutely on their feet many times.

:lol I remember in Game 6 of The Finals last year half of them weren't even in the building when Ray Allen hit "the shot".

[Beaverfuzz]

That's because they knew they were in over their heads.

[Ice009]

It's no secret that I'm not a fan of the Spurs crowd. Very weak crowd that seems to not have their hearts into the game. They need to be more hostile towards the opposing team, but they rarely ever are.

I don't give a fuck if Lebron makes a good play, you've got to make him feel unwelcome out there, not give him props and let him off.

Been that way for 20 years at least. Probably 30.

[BatManu20]

THE FUCKING REFS TRIED TO GIFT THE GAME TO YOU TAKE OUT YOUR FUCKING HOMER GLASSES FUCKING SPURS FANS

Yea the refs tried to gift us the game by keeping our two best perimeter defenders, Kawhi and Green, on the bench with foul trouble or most of the first 3 quarters. Great logic :tu :lol

[TheGreatYacht]

Damn. Weak ass fans didin't even show up at the Hard Rock Cafe for First Take...

how does it feel to have the nation see the Riverwalk with a bunch of Heat fans cheering for Brian Windworst and BOOING SEAN ELLIOTT

Move this fucking team Peter Holt

[DD]

If you replaced the baskets with soccer goals the arena would be the loudest in the league.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I agree. Drove down from Dallas for the game, weak ass crowd. I had more people asking me to sit down so they could see during the big stretches than joining me in making some noise for the team.

This was my 10th Finals game, weakest crowd I can remember.

Did they give away shirts? I swear only 1 out of 4 people were wearing black from the TV camera's angle

Fat people don't like standing--hurts their feet. "Ay, mijo!"

[rascal]

Leonard fouled himself out. Could not guard LeBron so went to bumping and tripping.

[rascal]

Those teams never won anything and winning makes the crowd complacent. Before the Spurs won their titles they were more noisy. The Spurs had the loudest arena in the NBA when they were at the Hemisphere.

Why do people feel they need to have to stand when they cheer. If you get some guys in seats in front of you that are taller than you, you see nothing of the game if everyone is standing.

Few could fit in them, too fat.

Everyone knows the Spurs crowd got soft after 03. Used to be like Oklahoma's crowd in the 80s, which was impressive in the pre-meth days tbh.

i dont care.... we are talking about fan noise at the present moment

For once, rascal's on point. The 80s crowds murder the current Spurs crowd. The only time the Spurs had a good crowd after leaving Hemisfair was 99-03.

This thead is bullshit. The Spurs crowd has been incredible these playoffs. Ask anyone whose been there.

[Jimcs50]

I was at game one of Portland series and the crowd was awesome. Only a few people were eating Whataburgers.

Hemisfair was so loud my ears rang for 30 mins after each game, but I think that was due to the building being all cement with no acoustics

[Horse]

Refs tried to give is a game? How? By fouling out Leonard and keeping Manu and Green in foul trouble? Okay

Maybe he meant not calling wades flop or not seeing Manu get smacked in the face. Or maybe the stupid asshole is still mad the celtics lost the lottery to draft Duncan.

[Horse]

Leonard fouled himself out. Could not guard LeBron so went to bumping and tripping.

Watch the replay lecramp tripped on Manus foot when Leonard got his 6th.

[TheGreatYacht]

Couldn't even skip on the Whataburger for 2 and a half hours... Not even for possibly Timmy's last game smfh.

Allowed the refs to do whatever they wanted lmfao.

Nothing for them to cheer about, should be booing this shit team tbh...

[gambit1990]

is this the one topic everyone on spurstalk agrees with? :lol

our crowd is embarrassingly bad. not ALWAYS, but definitely more often than not. especially when compared to other playoff crowds.

what would be awesome is if one game for every series... the lower level tickets were a flat rate of like, $60. first come, first serve. we'd have a real crowd that way tbh.

[GSH]

San Antonio is one of the biggest cities in the country, but it has a relatively small metro area compared to a lot of cities that are supposedly smaller.

San Antonio has very few corporate headquarters, compared to other "big cities". Even the name sponsor of the arena is no longer headquartered in SA.

The NBA (as other professional sports) is rapidly pricing itself out of the range of many/most average people. Outside of the upper levels, a large portion of all the tickets sold are written off as a business expense - whether they are used for business entertaining or not.

The fans in SA are spoiled as hell. They have seen too many successful seasons, and don't bat an eye at 67 wins because they don't understand just what a big deal it is. That's the problem with attracting a bunch of bandwagon fans.

[spursistan]

Move the team

Pathetic,tbh..I have lost faith in them when those fatasses opted to stand in waiting lines for their churros rather than watch Tim fuckin Duncan for his last home game..this shit is happening when are still a top 3 team with top 5 player in the NBA. Wait until we become Bucks West in 2020 when Pop retires and Kawhi demands a trade to one of LA teams :lol..

[SASdynasty!]

Every player and even the coach is getting the blame today..... but no one is calling out the fat necks in the crowd that take 2 hours to get to their seats and can't go 2 and a half hours without eating.

The 40-1 home record last year was a fluke. Spurs are finally playing the way they're supposed to infront of the worst crowd in the NBA. Couldn't even get to their seats during Tim's last home game against OKC. Pathetic whales

I was thinking perhaps the lack of intensity is due to poor fan support. The Washington crowd cheering for San Antonio was far more louder than these losers In San Antonio.

Spurs deserve a different city.

Has this really been an ongoing issue with the Spurs home crowd for seasons?

I've only been to one game in San Antonio (I live on the east coast) and it was packed and full of excitement. But that was the season after they had just won a championship, so maybe that had something to do with it. But the guy I was sitting next to did say that his company has tons of season seats throughout the arena so that's mainly how he gets to go to games. I'm guessing a lot of locals aren't willing or can't afford the price for lower level seats on a regular basis and business gobble those up and they go to waste if they can't an employee or client to take the seats.

But over the last few seasons, I've been to Spurs games in Miami, DC, Brooklyn, & Philly and there were always a nice amount of Spurs fans but I felt like it was loudest in San Antonio.

The Spurs had just won their first title when the arena vote happened. The team was hoping to put the stadium right next to the Alamodome but the city of San Antonio kept trying to tag on all these bullshit projects they knew could never get passed on their own, but they figured San Antonio residents would just vote for the whole package since the team just rang a couple of months before. The Spurs were scared the vote would fail with all the pork the city added to the arena proposal so they went with Bexar County's proposal to put the arena on land the county owned right next to the Freeman Coliseum. It was funny hearing it sold as a neighborhood revitalization program when it was just more welfare for the rich. LOL 13 years later and the area is still shitty and dead at night.

[dbestpro]

There are many rabid Spurs fans. Unfortunately, you will never see them in the lower deck, which is inundated by the extended pinky tea sipping elites of San Antonio.
