Did the fans do anything special during the wolves playoff..

...appearances in the past?

For example, I know the thunder fans wore blue shirts and didnt sit until the first thunder basket was made. (I think that tradition carried over to their regular season)

How was the crowd? Were they as electrifying as the warriors were in 07 or the Jazz crowd?

I didn't follow the Wolves until their last PO appearance in 04 and I never paid attention to the crowd.


Also....what could be a tradition we could start if we made the PO this year?

To add to this, the crowd started to decline after the following season. There were never any special colored t-shirts to wear or anything like that. The blow up noisemakers were really the only thing going on. That crowd in the 2004 video is self explanatory. One of the loudest crowds.

Tradition this year? Blue or white shirts with the noisemakers if I had to guess with some catchy slogan.

Can't remember anything special, but that first home playoff game against the Rockets was so loud and it never seemed to stop. Only gone to 3 playoff games. First home playoff vs Houston. First home win vs. Seattle. First series win against Denver. I have a feeling they'll be some new tradition started the next time.

Yeah back in that 03-04 season I remember the target center being just as loud as any other place in the NBA. I hope we will get back to that...

With how Minnesotans flocked to Target Center this summer, I could definitely see a crazy playoff environment.

For some reason I'd find it incredibly funny if the PA guy would play a "YA!" after every scored Wolves' basket.

I wonder if they will have Jesse Ventura come down from the rafters
