    Clyde is giving props to the crowd. Haters can go to hell

    Anyone have a video of Toyota Center chanting "flopper" at Jeff Teague?

    Crowd was great tonight. Did my part and was there early. Most were in their seats at tip off.

    Woooo the best team in the league with the MVP and another all-nba player finally fills up their arena in a playoff game.

    So proud of our city!

    the TC is a ****ing disgrace

    I am so sick and tired of these empty lower bowl seats. The team needs all the home crowd energy they can get.

    Twolves announcers talking about the empty lower bowl seats for an elimination game. One joked it's because we think the games are boring because we win by 30.

    Do they read Clutchfans?

    Screw these 845 weekday tips. I was offered a free ticket but turned it down because I leave for work at 415. I made sure there was a backup seat taker before I declined though.

    I was at sixers-heat game 5 last night....that was a crowd.

    Also seemed vaguely dangerous

    I hate the times but man, I'll be happy being half asleep at work before I miss a game.

    You can't make ticket holders come to the game and stay there at gunpoint.

    What is your plan once tickets are sold to assure the seats are filled and hype? Every other team does things the exact same way. For whatever reason there's no hype among the casuals in Houston.

    Its pretty easy, but we know from a financial incentive it'll never happen. Let upper bowl fans come down.

    It kills me seeing the energy from the home crowd in utah, minny, GS...and pretty much any other team.

    We have the best freaking team in the league. Houston needs to get excited.
