Not too often will you see social media accounts from specific teams put their fan base on blast. That’s exactly what the Brooklyn Nets did during their loss to the Toronto Raptors in Game 5 of their NBA Playoff series.
#Nets fans take note- this is what a playoff crowd sounds like..set your DVD and take notes #RAPTORSvNETS – LR

Maybe this was a way for the Nets to get their fans pumped for what is now a must-win Game 6 in Brooklyn on Friday evening. In any event, the team seems to have a point here.

Home-court advantage can be made even more difficult for the road team when the crowd shows itself to be turned up. Unfortunately, that has not been the case in Brooklyn this postseason. Will that change in Game 6? The Nets surely do hope so.
