Butler's eyes/body language probably also helped tip him.

It was like watching a safety make a crazy interception in football, or Pillar make one of his superman catches for the Jays. Flat out nuts.

Do you notice any of the fans around you appreciating the little things, like understanding how good Kawhi and Kyle are BESIDES scoring?
That's just the way the cookie crumbles for live sports in general. Most people paying to see any game are on the more casual side, at least in terms of understanding the game.

If I ever had the chance to seat courtside, I don't think I would be able to sit down throughout the game, probably talk some shit to the opposition players.
It got a bit "better" when we sucked post-Bosh because seats were available and cheaper. But you would have nothing to really cheer for. *And honestly just a guess here, because lord knows I went to no games at that time.
I went to a ton of games in the Carter era, and the lower bowl was at least as corporate as it is now, if not more so because bball in general was still not a hugely popular sport in Canada.
