Can someone help me figure this out?

I watch a lot of NBA games other than the Pacers. Whenever I’m watching another game the sound quality and noise from the crowd is far better than when I watch the Pacers.

It’s like a thundering roar when the home team scores, and it’s very clearly loud inside the arena.

When the pacers make a good play, sure I can hear the crowd, but it always sounds so muffled and lacklustre comparatively, like the microphones aren’t truly capturing the emotion from the crowd.

I’ve wondered, is it the audio? Is it the crowd? Is it the arena layout? I watch the games on League Pass in Australia - so if anyone who goes to the games can chime in that would be awesome

    I’ve noticed that the audio balancing has been incredibly poor in recent games. It’s like the sound engineer has been fired and they’re just setting the buttons to standard and ignore the fact that the commentary is often drowned out by the background noise.

    As someone who has partial deafness I always notice this shit, cheap production quality.

    Guess who’s responsible for the production. Guess who’s technically already bankrupt?

    Try the opposite team’s stream to hear a significant difference. (unless they’re stuck with Bally as well of course).

    The crowd is dead. You can hear Mathurin and Buddy calling for the ball the entire game and Rick yelling at everybody
