Remember when we had the best homecourt advantage

[JJ_Evans]

and the loudest fans?

SMH!

Yea but we also had one of the more exciting teams in the NBA, tonight was a nice showing of what these guys can do, but dont compare to the glory days.

Past is past, let's work on rebuilding that again for the future then we can say hey "we have the loudest fans and best home court"

 

[creAtivetfh]

we won, thats all that matters.

those bandwagon fans can come all they want as long as they go home unhappy

I thought our fans were pretty good tonight. Obviously not the way it was during the glory years but compared to other NBA fans? Yeah when they are given something to cheer for... they are pretty good. Just like tonight, I thought they were louder than the W's fans.

I would say that Kings fans were certainly a much more significant presence down in Oakland than Warriors fans have been here at ARCO the last two seasons. To be fair, the Kings then really had a better team than the Warriors have now.

Actually fans were great before the glory years, for the most part. The Kings had a very long sell-out streak during the sucky years, too. Fans were just happy to have a team in Sacramento back then.

For someone who has been to Kings games since they came to Sacramento...
I can tell you the loudest Kings fans were the pre-glory day Kings. At the original Arco it was even louder. Your ears would hurt. Seriously. And the first several years at the current Arco were extremely loud as well, even though the team wasn't very good. Where have those fans gone?

Yea, your right, but after having a taste of greatness and some stupid moves i think a lot of fans backed off a bit, not to mention the fact that you can watch every game on TV now, and every home game is in HD, the economy aint great and people dont want to spend the money to go to games, its really a combination of lots of things.

Arco is a little more empty these days, but the fans are still pretty passionate.

Warriors fans think they are the best. psssst, please.

Kings fans use to dominate Oracle. We were WAY louder. I use to actually feel bad for them. It probably felt the way I felt a couple of weeks ago when the laker losers got their MVP chant started. I as a kings fan felt angry. Anyway, we dominated Oakland. Warriors fans have a long way to go to be like we use to be.

The old arena use to be louder, but only because there was only 10,333 seats. That place would get unbearably loud. Ah the memories.

last time i checked we still held the record for loudest crowd in an indoor arena in the world.

21-12 isn't a bad record at home either.. Let's say we go 6-3 the rest of the way then we finish 27-15 at home.. That's better than last year!

THANK YOU!!! People need to remember that we sold out nearly 500 games from 1985-1997! And we were terrible!!

ANYTHING is better than last year for God's sake!! We were 20-21 last year at Arco with the Kool-Aid King Musselman. Reggie is doing a damn good job in restoring energy in our franchise, from a coaching standpoint, anyway...we're still right about on pace to the record that I predicted for us before the season, 37-45...which ironically was the Kings record the first year in Sacramento when he was a player. Full circle baby, full circle...
