[OrangeJuiceJonesParticipant]

[dwilks101586Participant]

coach carter, he got game and blue chips

[OrangeJuiceJonesParticipant]

Above the Rim is another good one.

[OrangeJuiceJonesParticipant]

Heaven is a Playground. Wow, my brain is working overtime right now.

[IndianaBasketballParticipant]

Lol no that wasn’t Eric Gordon. Everybody thinks that though.

Love and Basketball, Blue Chips, He Got Game and Above the Rim are my favorite hoop movies.

[JNixonParticipant]

3way tie between above the rim, coach carter and love and basketball

[McWinningParticipant]

Hoosiers is classic and i not a movie fan so i dont watch many so im picking Hoosiers.

[R-Dot-13Participant]

He got game

[sameolGParticipant]

He Got Game… cant go wrong with Denzel in any role

[McWinningParticipant]

i also like Better Basketbal videos they have really helped my game.

[billykParticipant]

Above the Rim (Birdie was classic)….

[LazarusMunozParticipant]

how bout that one where Whoopie Goldberg coaches the Knicks??

[OrangeJuiceJonesParticipant]

Eddie? Yeah, that was a good one.

[Michael.S.Participant]

SPACE JAM , Bugs Bunny and M.J. can’t beat that

[McWinningParticipant]

you liked it? i thought you were like forced to watch it with your sister?

[Michael.S.Participant]

Hell no, my sister likes it because Bugs Bunny and Tweety are in it, I love that movie , they call me the Monstar on the court, hahaha J.K.

[McWinningParticipant]

ive watched it before and it was okay but that was wen i was like 10 and i havent seen it since.

[LazarusMunozParticipant]

I think Space Jam is pretty realisitic for a cartoon movie…I like that scene where MJ and Porky Pig are in the strip club getting there drink on after practice

[doubledribblerParticipant]

How about the movie White Men Can’t Jump (Tell that to Brent Barry back in the day)? That was a really good movie. It wasn’t completely about basketball, but it played a big part in the story.

[Michael.S.Participant]

BILLY !!!

[FutureoftheGame]

Like Mike?? Good cameos by Dirk, JKidd, Carter and company.

[Bryant24Participant]

Above the rim, hoop dreams,and he got game.

[Michael.S.Participant]

Black Men Can’t Shoot? Like Mike 1 is good, part 2 is trash.

[deuce4off]

Blue Chips…..introduced me at an early age to the dark side of recruiting….Shaq, Penny, ridiculous NCAA recruiting violations…classic

Can’t go wrong with Above the Rim, White Men Can’t Jump, Hoop Dreams, Hoosiers

[doubledribblerParticipant]

How come somebody (mikenike) has to turn something into more than what it is? It’s the name of a movie, relevant to the topic. The title also being extremely relevant to a part of the movie as well as to an extremely funny scene. Woody Harrelson seemed to be fine with it. I’m guessing you must go into the group of people that can’t jump. There are plenty of people that can jump, there are plenty people that can shoot and the color of someone’s skin has absolutely nothing to do with it. As for you, anyone can hit a wide open jumper…it gets a little bit harder when someone is up in your face trying to do it.

As for everyone else, Hoosiers was a classic and Blue Chips is a highly underrated movie. It is very relevant to what we see today. I’m thinking it might be time to do a remake maybe?

[OhmilantaParticipant]

Anyone remeber Glory road?

now that was a good basketball movie

[LazarusMunozParticipant]

When Bob Knight was still coaching,Indiana was one of the best programs in the country,and Calbert Chaney was the best player in college

[CameronCrazieParticipant]

Coach carter and he got game

HAHAHA WOW it was a joke kid, and yes I can jump an you?

[draftnikParticipant]

He Got Game, Glory Road, and Blue Chips are my favorites by far. Also, Space Jam is up there, but not quite top 3 quality. One thing for sure, I’m tired of hearing Hooisers. I mean, the movie’s a classic no doubt, but to me, it’s kinda overrated.

[rocketsfan82Participant]

Rebound: the legend of Earl the Goat Manigault.

[adjose5Participant]

Above the Rim, WHite man can’t jump, Coach Carter, Sunset Park are my favs

[cp33Participant]

Heres my top 5. This is just my opinion though.

5. Coach Carter- The real coach carter kinda lost respect for me when he became a Slamball coach, but I love any coach who can turn around a crappy program and help kids stay off the streets.

4. Blue Chips-Has it all. Shaq, should have won an oscar, lol, jk. Funny movie tho.

3. He got game- Just watching Ray Allen at the beginning shooting the ball made this movie for me. Great story and the acting was good.

2. Air Up There- Don’t know exactly why I love this movie, but I did. actually wanna buy it now.

1. Glory Road- True story and it was a very entertaining movie.

[mikeyvthedonParticipant]

I have seen just about every basketball movie their is, and Hoop Dreams is just an incredible film. Amazing story and concept, it is just incredible how the story unfolded for William Gates and Arthur Agee. It touches on so many different themes and shows just how difficult it really is to live out the dream of being an NBA or even a professional basketball player. I read the book as well, which had tremendous insight into their lives and of course the incredible quote by William Gates where someone said, “Remember me when you make it” and he replied “Remember me if I don’t.” Amazing. A must see for basketball fans and film fans alike.

I also watched Hoosiers all the way through for the first time, and have to say it is a fantastic film. If you are not teary eyed at the end when Gene Hackman says “I love you guys”, than you are a stronger person than I am. When I was a kid, I loved the Air Up There, and Space Jam also brings back great memories. Blue Chips of course had Shaq and Penny, but even I felt that it was kind of a lame movie, however realistic it might have been. I would also have to say Above the Rim is a personal favorite of mine and brings back good memories, plus the Death Row soundtrack was quite nice 🙂
