AD, can you try and respect other people's opinions just for once?
The Kings game with Bogut attracted a lot of extra media attention that no other game including finals has.
Further, a lot of fans who attend other games would have specifically penciled this on in to attend, and without a doubt in my mind this was one of the most anticipated games the wildcats had for a long time.
It was also the biggest attended game this season.
Now, attendance will always be high because there are over 10000 members. Most games will be full, especially friday night games where they always get over 12000 and especially the first game back after the usual Hopman cup period where there hasnt been a home game for over a month.
Playing Cairns is irrelevant. A big crowd was always going to come for this game, but the Sydney game with Bogut did bring in extra attention and most basketball fans and casual sports fans would have appreciated seing Bogut play in WA for the first time ever.
