I absolutely despise the fake crowd noise. Maybe it’s because I’ve spent basically every winter in a gym since I was a little kid, but sneakers squeaking and players communicating on defense, and coaches yelling...those are the sounds of the game and that’s what we should hear.
I watched some of Providence-Seton Hall the other day being played in some small gym at Providence due to issues with their main arena...it was basically like a high school sized gym and you could hear everything...except the Fox Big East broadcast threw some ridiculous sounding white noise type crowd sound over it. It was just absurd. Don’t bother.
I certainy prefer the fake fan noise over straight game sounds. Need that environment for me anyway as long as it is done reasonably well. But Brooklyn seems to have taken it to a level where the crowd doesn't ever stop buzzing.
