But there are four matches from the Boston Gardens before Christmas Niall. Does that make any difference? Looks like the Lebron/Shaq combo beats Kobe with the Cavaliers getting SEVEN matches before Christmas and the Lakers just a single game. Good to see they will be running a consistent Wednesday/Friday set-up.

Hersey, I got given a ESPN NBA competition leaflet. It lists all the fixtures from Wednesday 30th October (I think) through to Wednesday 23rd December. I assume it will be handed out to members of the public at the O2 tonight. Whether those in the press area will be entitled to receive one is another matter; can't have the press winning trips to the US !!! Not sure its published anywhere on the internet.
