    It's apparently this NBA funded movie about this virtual reality basketball video game. Also stars Carmelo Anthony, Yi JianLian and Wang Zhizhi. I think it's been filming since 2010, but I never saw any threads about this, please lock if already posted.

    So it's Avatar but with basketball players? Looks...interesting.

    BTW here's hoping that this is the last time Scottie Pippen and Dwight Howard are mentioned in the same thread title on this site.

    It's Barkley's fault that Pippen can't act.

    yep. also considering the the lead guy running the corporation in this vid was a supporting actor in the og resident evil movie doesn't bode well.

    So is Pippen the antagonist in this film? Or is it a documentary on the effects of quitting on your team?
