I have to agree. I saw them play the Pistons there last year and the crowd was sitting on their hands.
tenn. and garden used to be a great advantage. not so much anymore. But you have to look at complete history not just select time periods to accuratly judge a place. I mean do you think TS was that intimidating during the hallman era?
They could have been referring to the old Garden, which had numerous dead spots in the wood floor. That's a pretty big advantage.
It was the actual structures, so it was referring to the old Boston Garden where the Celtics won 16 NBA Championships. Sounds like a good advantage.
