How much does a crowd effect an NBA playoff game?
Question:If you watched the Golden State -Mavericks series, it proved that the crowd matters a lot!
I have been to playoff games where you have to wonder if they are running fake crowd noise over the loud speaker because you look and the crowd isn't in to the game as much as the noise you hear. These quiet prissy little people down in the lower level make me sick. They are only there to say they went to a playoff game, I'll bet half of them don't even know the players names. You see them down there just sitting , you just want to smack em!
If someone is going to fork out hundreds of dollars for lower level seats, why then are they not on their feet cheering and screaming for 48 straight minutes. If you are going to the game then give it your all and help your team. Otherwise stay home and let someone who will give it their all go to the game in your place!
Give it your all or stay home! Simple
Believe it or not the crowd raises the level of team play quite a bit

I missed the (rigged) NBA draft lottery. What is the order?
The hometown crowd is HUGE in the playoffs. It is their energy and applause that the players, coaches, and referees feed off of. When a team is behind in points, then the crowds energy can rejuvenate the team back into the lead. It is ultimately up to all the players and coaches to feed off of that energy and step up their play on the court..Did Michael Jordan get booed the same way Kobe did?
It helps a lot because it bost the players energyWho do you think, who going to win between the Detroit Pistons or Chicago Bulls.?
In Golden State - Dallas series the crowd just won't let their guys to lose. It was amazing to see it. Dallas players were simply intimidated, their face expressions and body language crying "we want out of this building!" Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson used the crowd energy a lot. They just took any shot and they couldn't miss, bad shots, circus shots, crasy shots - didn't matter. That's why Barkley was so wrong about this series - he took crowd out of the equation and only thought about players. Other experts made the same mistake. I guess, nobody expected that the crowd would be so important. To me, it was MVP of that series.I play on a basketball team, and i want to know how i can get bigger calfs?
Alot that's how much basically if the crowd isn't cheering on their team than that team is ganna have a hard time in the game or the fans can cheer and scream their lungs out every time a player makes a shot or dunks or even blocks a shot it really matters to the players it MOTIVATES them it gets them all hyper and once it satrs it not that easy to stop it. In a matter of minutes a team can be up by 20 or even 30 points UNBELIEVABLE right? Of course not becasue that's what happend to the Dallas Mavericks they got eliminated becasue of the Warriors hyperness and speed and adredeline rush and confidence also the "WE BELEAVE" t-shirts that hey were holding and waving like they were flags that gave them the energy and confidence that they neededWhat's your excuse this time Heat fans?
