I'm a Raps fan, and we do get a pretty sweet crowd going in the playoffs, but common, the Warriors fans go INSANE!

Warriors crowd are like that because they haven't been to playoffs in many many years.

Warriors crowd this year sucks balls. Ticket prices spike (in an already expensive arena) have only left bandwagon fans to get in with the mild rapage.
Hell, last season Warrior- regular season games were pretty crazy...

Utah is by far the most intimidating arena in the league.

I swear I've seen nooses in the background.

Oh yeah, we get loud. I love it when Carter comes.

Funny thing is our crowd broke out into a rumbustious chorus of "Lets Go Raptors, VC Sucks" during our first home game against the MAGIC.

We are just as loud against the Magic though. When ever Howard steps up to make a three-throw everyone jeers at him. He's shooting like ~30% from FT in the ACC in the play-off I believe.

I don't know. The raptors crowd is something special. Crazy group of people.

ESA is getting its reputation back up there.

Why are raptor fans so proud of their HOWARD chant? The knicks spontaneously chanting ELIE SUCKS! ELIE SUCKS! in the finals in 99 was better than that

Hard to say, Warrior fans are awful but at least they aren't filthy Canucks.

Don't be hating because we got free health care and a better dollar.

Bay Area all ready beat Canada this year.
When the Sharks put out the Flames.
Every Warriors game is beyond crazy.

Warriors games are so loud that the sound kept getting static last year during the playoffs
