I was under the impression that when a tourney is down to its last 2 players, one player is BB and button, and the other player is SB. But homepokertourney says otherwise. Which is right?

From homepokertourney.com:

"There are three players remaining and one is eliminated

Determine which player would have been the next big blind ... that player becomes the big blind and the other player is the small blind (and button).

Examples:
Player1 (Button), Player2 (SB), and Player3 (BB).
If Player1 is eliminated - Player2 is BB and Player3 is SB and Button.
If Player2 is eliminated - Player1 is BB and Player3 is SB and Button.
If Player3 is eliminated - Player1 is BB and Player2 is SB and Button."

the button is also the small blind, yes.
