When Mike D'Antoni took the job in Houston, many wondered how the creative offensive mind would work with one of the most prolific offensive players the NBA has ever seen in James Harden. His solution: turn the prolific shooting guard into a prolific point guard. BRILLIANT! Or is it?
Also, it is easy to make predictions in the preseason, but sometimes it takes a few games to really feel good about them. Which predictions are we sitting comfortably with? And are the Baby Lakers suddenly the most entertaining team in Los Angeles?

We start our journey around the NBA, where we watch every team for one week out west with the Portland Trailblazers. Damian Lillard starts his MVP campaign? Which Blazer reminds us the bad old days in Portland, and what does 150 million dollars buy you in today's NBA?
Plus, we venture into the Warriors first loss, and try to figure out which superstar stuck without much talent we feel worse for, Russell Westbrook or Anthony Davis?

THE TIME HAS COME. BASKETBALL IS BACK.
Yes, we are excited if you can't tell, and we will do our best to incorrectly predict everything that is going to happen in the coming months. These incorrect predictions include all of the major awards, conference predictions, surprise teams, and of course, a no look pass you may not be expecting that would change the layout of the entire season.

Imagine if you took all the shooting guards in the NBA, put them in a pool, and drafted them 2K style? Well, that's exactly what we do at the NLP Podcast. Join us and see what we think of the young guns like Devin Booker, Jordan Clarkson, and Zach LaVine, and where they rank with the old guard like Dwyane Wade, Monta Eliis, and Jamal Crawford, and a change at number one from last year.
The hosts will also talk specifically about the placement of Kyle Korver, Khris Middleton, Archie Goodwin (!), and Bradley Beal on the list, and attempt to justify their picks.

What if you could throw all of the point guards into a free agent pool and draft them fantasy style like you do in 2K? That is what we do here at the No Look Pass Podcast. From 1-30, we decide who we would take just for the upcoming season in our annual positional drafts.
We will tell you who has risen and fallen from last year, justify our own picks, but more importantly, question each other.

With the Olympics approaching, the story thus far has been the guys who have decided not to show up. LeBron James, Steph Curry, and others took a pass on the 2016 team in Rio, but one player is more than a familiar face on the roster, Carmelo Anthony. He is the first American basketball player to participate in four Olympic games, and may shatter multiple USA records this time around. But, what does that mean for Melo's legacy?
Also, do we consider James Harden "great"? And does Klay Thompson have to make sacrifices for the Warriors to succeed?

Though much of the free agency buzz has died down, there are still players that are looking for a home next season, and we will discuss who the best of the bunch is, and who we are surprised is on the market.
There will also be a student's favorite time: a pop quiz! We ask ten questions about the season that just past to see how quick we forget the events from the prior season.

The NBA is officially in the off-season, with even free agency signings slowing down, and it is time to find other outlets for your hoops habits. Thankfully, the Summer League is in motion, and the 2016 Olympic Games will cushion the blow slightly. However, we are looking for a more permanent solution, and have tried to give the WNBA a look to see how it compares to the pro game, and ponder whether a "WNBA Select Team" could compete in the Summer League.
But then, it's back to the big leagues, as we discuss what exactly the Thunder should do with Russell Westbrook, and hit the trade machine to see if we can come up with some destinations for the superstar point guard.

NBA Free Agency certainly has not lacked excitement, starting with the first shocking announcement of Kevin Durant going to the Warriors, but it has not stopped there. Dwyane Wade has also switched teams, and we wonder which one was more shocking?
We also discuss the best/worst deals in free agency thus far, and whether we agree with the sudden value of NBA deals.

With Kevin Durant choosing to form a dynasty-destined team in Golden State, the ramifications will perculate throughout the whole league. What does it mean for the Warriors, the Thunder, and the league as a whole? Who are the biggest winners and losers of the deal? How long did it take for Russell Westbrook to delete Kevin Durant's phone number?
The Kevin Durant decision, believe it or not, is only one of the things going on in the NBA, as free agency is in full swing. What signing surprised us the most? And is the controversy over free agent money fair or foul?
