the only reason i watched on my pc via espn3 was to record the game, i never done this before. but judging from what people are saying it was a mainly espn's ty audio feed. so i guess i overreacted cause people are telling me the crowd was insane.
Then don't you think the fact that it was watched via TV kind of.............muted the noise?

do spurs fans not like wearing the shirts they get at arenas? GS and Miami thats all you see is them gold and white shirts
Right. Some people are just never happy.Leave it to Spurs fans to find something to about after a record-setting blowout win.
The crowd was fine. They are a lot louder than Miami's crowd. You need to experience the crowd at the arena.
They don't get buzzed or drunk till the third, duh.
Agree 100 % with this guy and the OP. Upper deck was pretty full at intros, but lower bowl was pretty sparse still. Add to that the low audio and whole thing was dissapointing. Once the crowd got there it was crazy loud, and just got silly in the second half.
I thought it seemed really loud... they try to drown it out for TV quality, but a telling sign was that I couldn't hear a few of the whistles.
Dude the place was so loud you couldn't hear the ref whistles, and barely heard the announcer's voice, and this was right from the start.
The building was very loud for Game 3 and though the crowd arrived late, the noise was good all night. Those who were there early brought good energy to make up for the empty seats. In these playoffs, the crowds have actually gotten better as the rounds have gone on -- the Game 5 crowd for the Warriors series was better than the Game 1 crowd in the Memphis series, IMO. Crowd intensity has been directly proportional to the need to win a particular game, I think.
I'd expect another really strong showing from the AT&T Center for Game 4.
I was watching the game on the espn3 feed and it was deafening. The announcers were talking loudly just to be heard in their headsets.
When Tmac checked in the place went nuts
Can't wait to go to game 4, was the game 3 traffic bad? I'm wondering when I should leave for the game.
I gotta say that when you actually go to a game you get a real sense of how loud it actually is. I've been to a couple these playoffs and the arena was always rocking.
If you're watching on TV, then half the sound is muted so you can hear the announcers speak. It's not the same and doesn't do the fans justice. So if you're not at the game...then you can hardly judge.
Yeah, I believe the crowd was much louder than the telecast would allow you to believe. Sometimes BSPN/ABC inflate the crowd noise in the audio mix to add to their own narrative (see Golden State). Just because it did not seem loud, does not mean it is actually so. I could tell the crowd was having a uva time in the second half once the Spurs got rolling and the place was at capacity.
I have been to all the home playoff games and the spurs fans were into their seats by 8:15--8:30. The traffic was slowed everywhere by the storm and construction. after everyone got in their seats and had a beer it was like any play off game. I sit in the lower bowl and I didn't see as many Heat fans as I though would show for this game. If the game was closer it would have been a louder game but the Spurs made it a joke. Every time we hit a three everyone was standing and cheering. I have been to every home finals game San Antonio played and the loudest game I ever went to was game 7 with the Pistons. We stood the whole game. The only time we sat down was on time outs and halftime.
I saw a replay of the game and it was way louder at the arena than what you heard on TV.
tons and tons of people were late to the game due to traffic jams:
30 MIN BEFORE TIP OFF
now stfu.
Spurs crowd is mostly mellow because we're used to success as a franchise. We've been in the running for the championship every year since 1999.
They were pretty damned good, I thought. We can't expect a fanbase like OKC or Golden State. We're always a good team.
The noise level diddnt bother me... but now shirts are actually given out not errones wearing em ....I guess us san antonio fans are really fat and lazyannd too cool for comradery.....upsetting woulda looked pretty cool.too
This tbh.
If you noticed at the end of game 3, everyone was still there by the time the game ended. At the end of game 2, that arena was pretty much empty by the end of the game. That's why Spurs fan> T-Shirt Heat fan
