    Hank Gathers (Loyola Maramount)????

    I didnt even realize they made a movie about that.

    IMO, none of those movies touch "Hoosiers". Its not only the best basketball movie of all times, its one of the best sports movies of all time.

    "Don't get caught watching the paint dry!" ........still gives me goosebumps

    BTW, "Amazing Grace and Chuck" should be on that list too.

    For me it's a 3-way tie between Space Jam, Air Bud, and Teen Wolf.

    Yeah there was a Hank Gathers movie.

    Last week there was a great article on ESPN Page2 about how there are no great NBA movies....can't find the link, but it was pretty much dead-on.

    Hoosiers is great.

    The Fish That Saved Pittsburgh is wortha watch due to its funkiness.
