I have no idea where the finish line will be, but I absolutely agree with your sentiments about the Celtics. Celtics fans now have only 12 hours to wait before finding out who the 2010 NBA Champions will be.

but sadly, the Celtics lost to Lakers and I cried! :'(

Oh hell, they'll make it again next year but now I read on the specs that the final city of TAR 17 is on LA, and will it be ironic if all the 11 teams, Phil Keoghan and the WRP crew had watched the game after the final race?  It could be. :duno:

It's possible. I guess the belief is that the race finished on June 16 in the LA area. The traditional after-the-finale party would have been in between games 6 and 7, so teams could have watched the NBA finale on June 17. But if you had been away from home for almost a month, wouldn't you want to get there ASAP? I know that I would. Most of the AR17 teams would not be from the greater Los Angeles area and would probably not be Lakers fans or Celtics fans.
