Finally saw this documentary.....great movie. the dynamics of the characters and their own personal struggles really makes the movie imo. BTW that dude arthuragee reminds me of someone i be seeing on tv. his face looks real familiar....
 
yea it's cool how you see them grow up and deal with obstacles in life. too bad it didn't work out for them.
 
Damn bro...You get the extreme late pass...that doc. is dope though.

I got a William Gates card I found awhile back.

-Chicago
-Basketball

Cause it doesn't get realer than real life. This movie is great on so many levels as it explores basically every topic of American society, race, gender,religion, class, etc

I know william had a tryout for the wizard but his knees were too bad.
 
i remember watching it a long time ago...i wanna re-watch it to see how I'll see it differently with a more mature prospective now as opposed to when I was14-15 or so.
 
My favorite movie/documentary as a kid.

It's so damn long that it loses its way. It's an interesting story, but it would have been better if it was an hour and half shorter.

Damn, thats messed up his pops got killed
his pops was a crack head though. it was bound to happen. even when you quit do you really get away from it completely considering they weresurrounded by it 24/7
 
one of the greatest sports documentaries of all time IMO. It is just too bad that it didn't work out for them both, but i did read that Will Gates got atryout with the Bulls a while back but he rejected the offer.
