Who said anything about the fans being good or bad? The dude was asking why it looked so empty. I told him factually why that was the case, even though attendance remains high.
Speaking of home court advantage, I am seriously think maybe Les should ask people to check out the Toyota Center about Chinese Fung Sui. Maybe there is something wrong in location, gate openings, planting, ventilation, decoration etc, must be something.
I don't know how anyone can blame Houston fans for attendance. 1. the game was sold out; 2. limited seating was provided to rockets season ticket holders; 3. most of the people there are not from houston. Jeff, I hear ya on the lounges. No one is forcing anyone to do that. But when you pay that kind of jack to get in...and those facilities are touted...people are going to take advantage of them. Particularly when the Rockets themselves market so hard to businesses which use these tickets as a chance to meet with their clients. A meeting place. And those lounges lend themselves to that. If I go there with a potential new client, I may not be as concerned about the Rockets winning as I am about securing the client.
