A basketball coach has to lower himself to some illegal methods to win a cha,pionship. Good sport drama (written by Ron Shelton) but since I don't know much about basketball, I never really got into it.
It's just worth it to see a young Shaq try to act. This was pre-Fu-Shnicken's. I think this might be Nick Nolte's last "straight" film. Now aday's he is bearded and looks like his mugshot. Or maybe his mugshot looks like him. Anyway, There are so many True Professional Athletes and Coaches in this movie you would have to shake a stick at them. I think that was the funnest part of this movie when I was younger, just being able to pick out the non-actors. Decent movie with a good moral. Don't cheat coaches, it only tarnishes your reputation!
The fact the movie was really honest about college basketball and the classes they make some of these inner city retards take, makes the movie awesome. I don't really like Nick Nolte, unless he's infront of the camera getting his mug shot (which is classic), but yeah watching SHAQ act dumb and take a class called TV and fail made me sooooooooooo very happy
