It was pretty dead until Anderson drilled the 3 threes at the end of the third and then a lot of people left after that.

So a late arriving/early leaving crowd with not great energy. We are still in football mode apparently.

I thought the crowd was fine. It was late arriving. Lower bowl was full. Upper deck had a decent crowd. I'm bad at judging but I'd say 14k.

Yeah, weekday crowds vs bad teams are always pretty tame. Especially last night where the Pels did nothing to get the crowd into the game until Ryno drained those 3s. Weekend games vs good teams will be more lively.

The crowd was buzzing in the 2nd half last night. You can tell everyone was starting to realize that this team can be good. The crowds will improve, you have to win games, though.

Wasn't energetic, but we were shooting 37% most of the game and 28% from the line. There weren't many moments to get into the game, outside of a few AD dunks

A couple of things.

Crowd was late arriving (but that's typical in 80% of NBA venues). Then the placed started filling up, though. Sort of quiet in first half, but I really don't blame them. Both teams were playing like shite.

Crowd was great beginning in the 3rd quarter. By the end, they were really into it. There was no mass exodus until final two minutes when the starters came out.

I've been to arenas around the league. This was a decent crowd for a week night against fricking Orlando.

The missed Free Throws really took the air out of the building imo. Bricking almost every first half three didn't help either.

Agreed. I don't know where the BS about the crowd leaving in the 3rd came from unless it was from someone not at the game. The crowd mirrored the team in the 1st half. The crowd really got into in the 2nd half and was good through mid 4th when it got out of hand. Although it was a sellout, there were patches of empty seats. So butts in the seats were probably in the 15s.

Gotta factor in that it was a work and school night too. Saturday should be packed because it's a weekend and people finally realizing we have a young superstar.

I moved over to section 331 to see better and some really negative fans over there lol. Some guys were bitching literally everytime we didn't make a shot or someone screwed up.

What you said. In fact, after nursing the Halloween hangover, I'm thinking of picking up tix.
