Why the last game of the season will be played at the TD Banknorth Garden in Boston?
I thought it was a type but the same thing is on the Mavs schedule.

I think there doing that for every team, its stupid. For every team the last game is played somewhere else other then any of the two teams homes. I don't know why there doing this because when it comes time for the 8th seed of the playoffs, then usually there are 2-3 in contention and sometimes the last game means something BIG, lawlz this would suck if lets say for example the Hawks and Nets have a tied record for the 8th spot, but then the Hawks play AT New Jersey there last game, lawlz its quite ghey.

It's either an error or soemthing the NBA is trying out.

Anyways, since noone is signing up for more games. I guess I'll get the Rockets and Mavs game on the 30th.
