"Well, of course home or Madison Square. Madison Square, TD Garden, New York, Boston, Philly, and Atlanta at home. But it's hard to play in Madison Square Garden too. Great place. It's hard to play there. You've got to be ready for that. Boston is the same way New York is," Edwards said when asked about where he likes playing most (via Anthony Edwards - YouTube).
Unfortunately for Edwards, he's 0-5 in his career playing in TD Garden, but he has been a part of some thrilling games there.
That just shows how special the atmosphere is, with a competitor like Edwards enjoying Boston despite not having a single career win there.
