#7 Charlotte Bobcats 77 @ #2 Orlando Magic 92 So much for the Cats giving top tier teams trouble. Charlotte started the game with just three points and couldn’t score for eight minutes.

2010 Playoff Preview (TNLP First Round Picks!)
Well, the Playoffs are starting in a bit. We made our picks in Episode 49 of the Chronicles of Crotty Podcast. But let’s put it all in print.

2010 Playoff Preview (Milwaukee Bucks)
Let’s continue this 2010 Playoff Preview. TNLP (and friends… maybe enemies, I don’t know) helps break down each Playoff team one by one!

In Order To Repeat…
I know it´s been a while. I haven´t written anything since the Los Angeles Lakers won the 2009 NBA Finals. I have just been really busy with me coming back to the States, back to Costa Rica, and now with the new job. But I couldn´t be happier that the NBA Season is upon us [...]
