LeBron being the 4th leading scorer on his team in a comfortable playoffs W...that didn't even happen when Wade and Bosh were at their peak.

To be fair outside the "Big 3" those teams were incredibly unbalanced though. Who on those rosters was even capable of nights like that? Rio? Mike Miller with his gimpy back? Those teams were great because that top end talent, but Bron has played on far deeper teams, with less flaws, and less holes, and more versatility than those Heat teams. Those Heat teams just had a game-plan that fit their players, and peak Bron who filled more holes than maybe any player ever, and Bosh's ability to defend in space and really allowed that "swarming" style defense to succeed. The Cavs teams, Lakers bubble team, this team now, just talking depth and versatility they are all better, they have less holes/flaws.. The Heat top end talent just had the studs to overcome those holes, and they made other teams play at their pace and style.

It's hard to think of this as even the same franchise that was a playoff team in the early 00s, was so long ago. But that crowd was always deafening like this.

I clearly remember it was loud during the Mitch Richmond years and they sucked back then.

I'm trying to think of what city to compare Sacramento to. It's like small market rural "there's else nothing to do here" passion for sports combined with a more diverse population (sort of).
