Here's how bad it is

Even with the regular noise of the drummers and all the blasts over the P.A. system, there is quiet in the arena. How quiet?

You can now hear chants of "Let's go Rockets . . .  let's go Rockets . . . let's go Rockets."

Obviously there is a contingent of Houston fans. If they drove, it obviously was well worth the effort -- at least so far.
