    We FINALLY had a real home court advantage tonight. The fans sounded lound on TV and the commentators mentioned how loud it was in there. You could see that the crowd helped with the team's momentum in the 4th quarter. Whatever the blue hairs and corporate dudes drank tonight they should drink again for the rest of the playoffs. Our crowd needs to be better and make some noise to encourage the team when we are down. An amped crowd helps.

    My parents went to the game and told me it was the loudest in there that they have ever heard! They said it made it sooo much better to watch and definitely stirred some momentum for the Rox! I was so excited when I was sitting on my couch in Phoenix and could cheer defense with the crowd that I could ACTUALLY HEAR on Tv. Props to you if you went to the game! Now make the drive up the i-45 and and drown out those Dallas fans!

    I thought with all of the pub it's been getting from clutchfans.net and 610 it would have been done all night. A little disappointing, but at least we won.

    GREAT effort from the crowd tonight!

    The only thing is I was hearing little uncoordinated "MVP" chants when T-Mac was at the FT line.

    Guys, if you can't cheer and love this team with all your heart, then forget being a Rockets fan...you are not even a basketball fan. I was watching the game on my big screen and I was JUMPING up and down and screaming profanities. Me and my bro were pumped up big time!

    I absolutely LOVED the fact that Sura slammed that cocky MoFo Howard to the floor. Way to take revenge for Yao, Sura. That's what teammates are for:cool: The best thing was the fact that this kid Howard backed off and was pissing his pants when Sura did that:D

    Now let's go and do the "impossible" all over again Clutch City...No one believes in you, and you wouldn't have it any other way:cool:

    Hell yeah it was loud in there. Finally felt like a real playoff game atmosphere. I dont think me and my friends sat down in the entire 4th quarter.

    It was loud, for the first time this series the cameras were all shaky and stuff. I haven't felt like this in a while.

    I was there tonight as well. What I don't get is that 70% of the box seats/suites were empty the entire game. I just don't get it. if the big wigs can't make the game why not hook the other guys at the office up with some tickets?

    That's because not all the suites are sold. My company has two suites and tonight we were jam packed. I yelled and high fived until my hands and throat was raw. Normally I'm more subdued because I'm in front of potential customers but I said screw it this time. A co-worker and I were giving it our all.
    I was very proud of the noise level tonight.
