The movie they are going to make about the Jazz after we win a championship this year.
 
Some of the cool kids were talking about White Men Can’t Jump when it came out back in first grade. I petitioned by dad to take me, and somehow he reluctantly did. I believe that was the only R rated movie he took me to growing up. Unless you count the Matrix 7-8 years later. I don’t remember much about it besides a money jar, Woody Harrelson failing to dunk, and the shower sex scene. I think that was a little uncomfortable for my dad. In hindsight, I bet none of those other kids actually saw the movie.
Billy, give me a glass of water!

I think watching Rosie Perez in that movie made me realize I was always destined to work in NYC with Nuyoricans. And here I am.
 
I didn't realize you could vote on multiple movies, but yes White Men Can't Jump was and still is quoted a lot by me.

Hey how come no one has mentioned The Air Up There, nothing screams basketball movie like Kevin Bacon.
 
I really enjoyed White Men Can't Jump and Hoosiers but Hoop Dreams was the best - one of those documentaries that falls under the category "you can't make this stuff up."
 
I liked Above The Rim.
It had Tupac doing Tupac stuff in it after all.
