We Like Obscure NBA Players: Victor Alexander
It’s become apparent that The No-Look Pass really loves the 1993-1994 season with all of the other obscure NBA players that we have featured that played during this era. Victor Alexander is no exception. This 6-9 265 lb. forward/center might not have had the physique of a typical NBA player but it made him a [...]
End Of The Dark Side Era
So one of my all-time favorite players that never got to play much, Darko Milicic, has decided he’s had enough of the NBA. He said that no matter what happens, he will go back to Europe. 100 percent certain.
Darko also said that the NBA is full of liars.
I will never know what goes on [...]
The Winning Streak? Yeah, It’s Nice.
The Lakers are on a 10-game winning streak. The funny thing is that they never won more than seven in a row last season when they won 65 games. But, oh, the pros and cons of a long winning streak like this.
Everyone is saying how indestructible they look. Yeah, I get that they look like [...]

The Entertaining Player Intros
Part of an NBA game’s spectacle is the amazing player introductions before the game. Get the home crowd amped up… and, hell, get all the NBA fans watching on television hyped. Complete with either a smooth or hyperactive public address voice introducing the starting line-ups.
I do feel a little funny when I see something [...]
We Like Obscure NBA Players: Bill Curley
Every league with a Larry Krystkowiak and Doug Moe, needs a Bill Curley. He was an NBA journeyman who lasted longer than most people might have expected but was a major trade piece that changed history. This week The No-Look Pass takes a look at the career of Bill Curley.
He grew up in Boston, [...]
