Whether you saw the games or not, TNLP’s got you covered with some mini-recaps. #1 CLEVELAND CAVALIERS 87 vs #4 BOSTON [...]

2010 NBA Playoffs (Day 17 Recap)

#4 Boston Celtics 104 @ #1 Cleveland Cavaliers 86 (Series tied 1-1) Before the game, LeBron James accepted his second consecutive MVP award. It was supposed to be a night of celebration. The Boston Celtics had other ideas. After a meltdown in game one, where they had a good opportunity to win, they came out [...]

2010 Playoff 2nd Round Preview (San Antonio Spurs)

We probably shouldn’t have been surprised. The San Antonio Spurs, after struggling throughout the season, find themselves back in the second round after taking care of their old rivals, the Dallas Mavericks. And with that, I bring back the elated members of Project Spurs. Michael De Leon and Jeff Garcia probably thought they wouldn’t be [...]

2010 NBA Playoffs (Day 13 Recap)

The second round match-ups are getting settled more and more. And, by the way, this is the REAL Day 13! #2 DALLAS MAVERICKS 87 @ #7 SAN ANTONIO SPURS 97 (San Antonio wins series, 4-2) The San Antonio Spurs got off to a very fast start. They held the Dallas Mavericks to 8 points in [...]

2010 NBA Playoffs (Day 9 Recap)

#4 Boston Celtics 92, @ #5 Miami Heat 101 So much for the Heat going fishing. Dwyane Wade was NOT going to let that happen under any circumstances. Wade was phenomenal, torching Boston for 46 points on 16/24 shooting, including five three-pointers. After leaving game three with  cramps late in the game, Wade made sure [...]

2010 NBA Playoffs (Day 7 Recap)

2010 Playoff Preview (San Antonio Spurs)

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! Next in line is the perennial playoff team, the San Antonio Spurs. We expected a lot out of this bunch but after the smoke cleared, they only ended up as the #7 [...]

TNLP Is Spurred (Episode 6)

As mentioned yesterday, the Spurs beat the Lakers by 19 on that matinee game last Easter. This prompted Jeff Garcia from Project Spurs to have our monthly conversation about these two teams. Of course, he’d call me out after a huge win! Anyway, he hosted our chat this time. Here’s an excerpt of what we [...]

Lakers And Spurs… Where You Think You’re Going?

I’m sure it surprised some people that the Spurs beat the Lakers. I’m more surprised on how the Spurs beat them handily. 100-81 was the final score. Right now, these are two teams that are going in different directions. Actually, we have one team that’s trying to go the right direction while we have one [...]

TNLP Is Spurred (Episode 4)

Last time I talked to Jeff Garcia of Project Spurs, he was basically conceding the first Spurs/Lakers match-up to the City of Angels. But the opposite happened. Kobe Bryant’s back flared up and was essentially useless after the first quarter. The Spurs went on to beat the Lakers, 105-85. I thought Jeff was going to [...]
