Whas Happened In Sports Last Night

• NBA Playoffs 2008: The defending champs weren’t going to get run out of the playoffs at home. And New Orleans wasn’t going to play well on the road either. The result is a game seven clash in New Orleans. Those are always fun. San Antonio 99, New Orleans 80. [Fox Sports]
• MLB 2008: The Tampa Bay Rays dropped the New York Yankees in the last place bucket last night after a convincing 5-2 victory. Will 2008 be a stripe-less postseason year? [Boston Herald]
• MLS: Colorado Rapids climb the charts in the Western Conference by beating Real Salt Lake 2-0 at home. [Canadian Press]
• Copa Libertadores: Apparently America doesn’t mind playing well when it comes to international games. But don’t ask them to play well in their domestic league because that’s been a lost cause since day one. America 2, Santos FC 0. [IHT]
