    Does it kick ass?

    They play all the good stuff.

    I am real jealous.



    I hope Toyota Center honks are reading this, and take notes.

    Yes, good music.


    I hate the music they play at the TC... although I do love the Foo Fighters intro.

    I hope you're not saying that just because they played A-ha.

    Anyone remember the oracle arena against dallas in the first round upset?

    That was the best crowd i've ever seen.

    Also the kings vs lakers series, the donaghy series. The cloud was bumpin.

    For sure. I recall the camera shaking at times because how loud the arena got. Besides any Rocket related series win, I can say that I've never and probably will never enjoy a series as much as I enjoyed the Dubs/Mavs series in the '07 playoffs.

    As for the Q, the crowd definitely has improved from the last couple years (that's what winning will do), but it still doesn't give me the same feeling of excitement like watching a game in Chicago, Boston, or New York. Those three are the cream of the crop in terms of eastern conference arenas.

    I think Chicago has a great fan base that is always loud.

    Miamis is only good in playoffs

    I think the Pacers arena is up there too when they're fielding a decent team. Pretty good fans there.

    Nope, i live in miami and have gone to many heat games. The crowd is great all the time.

    I wish Toyota center would fill up completely sometimes :( .

    I think they stole that swag from the Wizards arena, they will bump some "Gin & Juice" :D ....I've watched alot of the Cavs this year & they were not jammin' like that during the reg. season.

    I went to a couple of GSW games when I was working in San Jose.

    The first one I went to was an early regular season game against the Mavs the season after the 1st round upset. Oracle seemed a little smaller than TC but the crowd was a heck of a lot louder and more into the game, including those in the lower bowl.

    The second game I went to was against the Rockets. I ponied up for seats right under one of the baskets. McGrady put about 30 in that game and the Warriors fan sitting next to me had never seen Landry before. He kept saying, "Man, that Landry guy is a beast!" Bobby Jackson also banked in a 30-foot chuck with the clock expiring late in the game that deflated the crowd.
