Phil Jackson’s latest book (with help from Hugh Delehanty, who also helped Jackson in Sacred Hoops), Eleven Rings: The Soul of Success, was a good read. But if you’re looking for biting comments about the people he worked with or stories that might make you raise an eyebrow, well, you’re going to be sorely disappointed. The extraordinary former coach of… Read more →
Power Rankings can be really stupid. So stupid that we had to have our own “Stupid Power Rankings.” The Conference Semis are nearly done. So I compiled the events that happened in the last few days during the Conference Semis. Disagree with the rankings? Well, we already prefaced that these are stupid. Just have fun with these. I rank these… Read more →
NCAA B-Ball enthusiasts know who DeJuan Wheat is. After all, he had a storied career in Louisville. Wheat played four years there and helped take the Louisville Cardinal to the Elite Eight in his senior year in 1997. He is the second-leading scorer in Cardinal history with 2,183 points (behind Darrell Griffith’s 2,333 points). Wheat was picked in the second… Read more →
Most people want their YouTube mixes to have music filled with adrenaline. They want to see highlights from their favorite stars to get hyped up for either an upcoming big game or playing some pick-up on their own. We’ve seen some good ones from Reggie Miller to Allen Iverson. But this is the internet. You can find basically anything. Including… Read more →
Power Rankings can be really stupid. So stupid that we had to have our own “Stupid Power Rankings.” So all the Game 3s from the Conference Semifinals are done. Before you watch Game 4 of Spurs/Warriors later, you should check out our stupid Power Rankings from those games. Disagree with the rankings? Well, we already prefaced that these are stupid….

Sometimes, we forget that former New York Knicks center Patrick Ewing played for two other teams in the NBA. Well, he played for the Seattle SuperSonics (miss you!) and the Orlando Magic. At least from my experience, people talk more about his Orlando stint simply because they can’t seem to stop talking about forgetting that stint. So his Sonics stay… Read more →
Power Rankings can be really stupid. So stupid that we had to have our own “Stupid Power Rankings.” We’re going to rank items that happened in the past couple of days of the NBA Playoffs (basically all the Game 2s from the conference semis). Disagree with these rankings? Didn’t you already know that these rankings are stupid? Done by a… Read more →
So after doing a little review of an old Tyronn Lue site on Angelfire and having a little flashback on The Marbury Terrain, which was actually made by our own Dave Diep, we decided that we should make this into a regular feature. There are tons of old fan sites that are still alive on the internets. I didn’t even… Read more →
Today, we cover one of TNLP’s favorite players who, surprisingly, has not made the obscure player roster yet. Andrew DeClercq was a power forward and center out of the University of Florida. Following a junior season where he led the Gators to the Final Four, he was a second-round draft choice by the Golden State Warriors in 1995 as the… Read more →
What up, what up, what up? We’re back with another NBA YouTube Mix and not a minute too soon. This week, it’s the beloved Reggie Miller and not because he’s my all-time favorite player, but because yesterday was the 18-year anniversary of his signature spurt of eight points in nine seconds. Yes, 18 years and a day ago, Miller managed… Read more →
