Nothing you can do about it dude, we're all in same boat.

I lose 3000 in attendance with a loss, economically that's 550k to 480k. Eww.

My disparity is larger this season to last. Haven't won a road game yet, so I can only compare to last season. But I'm currently at a 120k difference.

I think it's stupid and unrealistic. Attendance should be based on standings, PD, star players, etc. Not what happened in the previous game.

Does this mean I can count on this to continue Saturday?

I have used this example before....but can you envision a scenario in which the Miami Heat fans refuse to go watch Game 7, because they lost on the road in Game 6?

I had this argument with Charles before, and he actually argued that in Hockey, it's quite common for Game 7 to sell fewer seats than other games in a series....First of all, umm, no, you are wrong...and secondly and most importantly, this is basketball, not hockey.

My favorite part about this is that, a few years ago, they introduced the fan survey because an away loss used to have the effect of a nuke in the stands and, you know, that's a bad kind of lack of realism.


Wait...it used to be even worse? Wow.

Also, what's totally unrealistic is losing Game 22 of the regular season, and then having fans boycott your first playoff game.

Probably. Weather forecast predicts lots of orange-brownish balls falling through the wrong hoop at a prolific rate.
