Recap Of 2010 All-Star Weekend

And yet another All-Star Weekend has come and gone. All right. Let’s see here…
*I didn’t watch the Celebrity Game.
*The Rookie/Sophomore game was entertaining enough. Russell Westbrook scored 40 points. Tyreke Evans showed the world how good he is and DeJuan Blair was a monster on the boards.
*The Dunk-In is just not a good idea.
*H-O-R-S-E became [...]

No Argument: Worst NBA Dunk Contest In History

So, yeah, if you watched this year’s NBA Slam Dunk Contest… then you’d have to agree with me that the 2010 NBA Slam Dunk Contest is the worst dunk contest in NBA Slam Dunk Contest history (Was there any bigger letdown than Shannon Brown? I didn’t pick him to win but I, at least, expected [...]

TNLP Talks To ESPN’s Land O’ Lakers

That was some game, huh? Kobe Bryant hit a game-winning jumper with 7.3 seconds left to lift the Lakers over forever rivals, the Boston Celtics, 90-89. This is NOT just another game in the regular season for both teams; I’m sure they had this date circled on their calendars for a while now.
I got immediate [...]

I Like Watching The Celtics

So people pretty much know that I root for the Lakers first and I root for the Clippers second. And I believe it was Chris Mannix from Sports Illustrated that posed this question: which five teams in the NBA do you watch the most? And, of course, my top two were obvious. But I’m sure [...]

Is Chris Kaman Right?

Last Friday, Chris Kaman said that Pau Gasol does not deserve to be in the All-Star game. He went on to say that he’s only played “50 percent of the games” (27 out of 44, really, which makes 61 percent) and that Gasol shouldn’t be chosen for the team as a center because it’s not [...]

Look Who Tweets With TNLP

This was an entry that I had put off for a while now but I figured now would be the best time to do this.
Everyone knows that I’m a Twitter fiend… and Twitter is one of the big reasons why TheNoLookPass.Com is what it is today. It’s my main communication tool with fellow basketball bloggers [...]

TNLP Talks To The Dugout Sports Show

The one great thing about Christmas? Okay, besides receiving gifts (if you’re greedy, which would be me)? Or giving gifts (if you like to make people happy, which is not something I’m good at)? It’s a full day of NBA games. Five, to be exact.
You all know The No-Look Pass has a little touch of [...]

Why Tank?

I’ve been wanting to write about this for a long time.
Tanking. It will NEVER, ever make sense to me. I’ve heard people tell teams to tank and I never understood why. Even as recently as a couple of weeks ago! “Eh, I give up on this year. Let’s just tank the season so we [...]

10 That Could Be Great… At Something Else

David Stern likes to mention all the time that the NBA is the home to the best athletes in the world.  Why shouldn’t he?  The level of athleticism and energy required to play 30+ minutes of basketball over the course of a season is astounding, especially when considering how much physical [...]
