A vast number of fans stood up, waving the yellow towels in their hands.
Generally speaking, teams concoct stunts to enhance the home court atmosphere during the playoffs.
For example, once Washington's crossed-arms gesture caught on, the Mavericks placed a cushion on every seat at their home court, printed with the image of Washington's pose, which was quite imposing.
The towels distributed by the Grizzlies were related to Sacre.
Even though he didn't get much time on the court, his passion on the bench was so intense that his popularity with the Grizzlies outshone many rotation players.
The Grizzlies hadn't faced too much trouble in the first two rounds, but meeting the rival San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference Finals, they pulled out the big guns tonight by giving everyone a yellow towel emblazoned with the words "Whoop that trick."
The scene of thousands waving their towels was quite spectacular.
