“The wall” in the Intuit Dome is unbelievable

The likes of James, Curry, and Durant have all mentioned how impressive “The Wall” is, and how it adds to the overall excitement of playing at the Intuit Dome. The design of “The Wall” was inspired by the iconic “Yellow Wall” fan section of German soccer team Borussia Dortmund.
