    Do you guys think that RA had a strong emphasis on protecting your home court and that is why you never could win in Arco Arena? If so do think he will bring that attitude here? I think it would be awesome to go on a huge home game winning streak. It always seemed that when you played sac they would bring up how impossible it was to win in Arco Arena. :D

    they had the best fans at the time and was loud as hell. remember the cowbells?

    if the TC can get pumped up like that, then sure. if the whole arena is filled w/ red rowdies, i'm sure of it.

    I think it had more to do with their fans than the coach.

    it was their fans. our 'fans' are corporate douchebags, but youve still got TRUE fans. still, most of them are the 'bluetooth in ear' type of people

    I'm going in corporate seats and trust me I will be SEEN AND HEARD.

    I can get very very obnoxious.

    Arco Arena has always been traditionally loud even before the Rick Adelman era, even when they sucked that place was loud.

    It's no secret the TC crowd has always been more of a wine and cheese crowd, corporate schmucks and their clients will always be a staple in the sparse crowd.

    If Rocket's management fills TC with ClutchFans fans, then it becomes Arco.

    Besides all the corporate losers at the TC let's not forget that Arco is an old style arena, where the crowd is right on top of the court.

    The TC can get rocking, I've been a handful of games where it's just been insane and it's been a lot better since the Rowdies have come into being but the stadium, just because of the way it's constructed, will never be like Arco of the old days
