Re: NBA/Basketball documentaries
I wish somebody would make one in the vein of "Winning Time: Reggie Miller vs. The New York Knicks" about the Heat-Knicks rivalry from the late '90s-early 2000's. Start the story going back to LJ and Zo's day's in Charlotte, all the way through the end of their stretch of series'. The brawls, Allan Houston. That would be a lot of fun.
Re: NBA/Basketball documentaries
A lot of the espn 30 for 30s about basketball are really good. The Fab Five is my favorite
Re: NBA/Basketball documentaries
You know what else would be good, would be an in-depth, no holds barred look at the Kobe-Shaq rivalry with candid interviews from everybody. Starting with Shaq's signing in LA the summer Kobe was traded for, all the way through Kobe winning his 5th in '10 and saying he was glad he got one more than Shaq. That would be awesome.
A really good one I haven't seen mentioned is "The Announcement" about Magic. It's up there with "Magic And Bird: A Courtship Of Rivals", in my opinion.

Yes, it is worth it. It's quite an accomplished film in itself.

Re: NBA/Basketball documentaries
That Sam Bowie one was pretty good. I feel sorry for him, kinda sucks to have legs like that..
Re: NBA/Basketball documentaries
Obviously, some of the recent ones are Magic/Bird Courtship of Rivals, Bad Boys 30 for 30, The Dream Team, Dr J.
I would also like to see what other docs people recommend. Not just docs but anything basketball related like instructional or just a great highlight video of a particular player.

Re: NBA/Basketball documentaries
If anyone in here hasn't seen the Bad Boys 30 for 30, you aren't a fan pf basketball.That's one of the best docs I have ever seen, regardless of topic.

Yep.
Re: NBA/Basketball documentaries
I really liked bad boys, the announcement and reggie miller winning time. They need to do NBA shoot interviews.
