    Heaven is a Playground was a great movie and had stacks of NBA players in it.

    Ray Allen was great in he got game.

    I forgot about White Men Can't Jump, that's the best.

    There was one I saw in the last year, it had the black guy from Homicide on street in it and was about a black team playing against a white team whent hey weren't allowed to, that was a great hoops movie, what was it called??

    think i might go hire heaven is a playground tonight, now, cool.

    PhiSlammaJamma,

    i've watched Basketball Diaries..and it doesn't have that much to do w/ bball other than he's on the team...but i guess it's still worth watching. My favorite bball movies would have to be Hoop Dreams, White Men Can't Jump, Above The Rim, and the Rucker Park documentary.

    Have you seen slam dunk Ernest?

    Another cool basketball movie: Airplane.

    or was it part 2 that had that basketball scene? Oh well.

    Above the Rim(with Tupac) and He Got Game were by far the best...IMHO.

    Blue Chips was good too.

    Best basketball scene has to be Fletch...a definite classic.

    Heaven is a Playground is the best by a MILE!

    If you haven't seen it then make sure you do! Most of the other ones are not as focused on basketball (and some aren't at all - basketball diaries). Blue Chips isn't that bad! Hoosiers is pretty good too.
