NBA Basketball isn't my sport; I haven't ever seen a team or season that surpasses the Knicks of the late 60s when I was a kid.
But what's great about this movie is that it looks at two players more than the game or the teams, two youg guys on the threshold of stardom and money and fame. That they handle it so well is surprising, even if any chump knows that NOT to leave college or highschool for the NBA doesn't make sense.
Still, in a time when some NBA players are going into the stands to beat up fans, it's good to see two young men who were apparently so well loved and educated to this point, that they can slide into the NBA world with poise and aplomb.

The most honest look on professional basketball I have ever seen. A must have for documentary fans and of course basketball fans.

I just love this documentary film. It takes you through the early stages of 2 of the NBA's Youngest Stars... aka "YOUNGEST GUNS"... Even better since they are both still playing in the NBA... and "Q" is a true SuperStar. A MUST SEE FOR ANY NBA FAN!!!!!!!!!! GREAT ENTERTAINING DOCUMENTARY!!!! I loved it!

Living in the UK it is difficult to get good quality DVD's covering my favourite sport, that being basketball in the NBA. This DVD gives the viewer a great insight into the mind set of the two young stars. It also shows the reality of the life they are stepping into by becoming an NBA player showing what happens behind the scenes not just game day.

It is a good watch made all the more interesting for me as not long after, my team the Knicks acquired Richardson as part of the 2005 draft.

This movie is about a lot more than just basketball. It's about life and the choices you make. Best basketball film since "Hoop Dreams". Great soundtrack. MTV meets the NBA. Hip, Hop & Score.

Cool movie. Great music. Good story. Just in time for the basketball season. You can watch it with your girlfriend and she'll love you for it.

Great movie, really shows you the journey that two of the best up and comers in the nba took to get to the league. Great music and you won't be bored at all watching it even if you don't like basketball. You can even watch it with your girlfriend and you'll both enjoy it. Also it gives you more of a glimpse of the actual life of young hot shot players in the nba than any special on espn or fox sports. I definately recommend that you see this movie. You won't be dissappointed.

a GREAT behind the scenes film about NBA draftees especially a cool look at Darius Miles who was drafted number 3 straight out of high school.

This movie rocked! Interesting insight into a basketball players life. The soundtrack was awesome! A must see!!

my boyfriend brought this home one night and i loved it -- i didn't know much about these guys beforehand, but this was a great story and fun to watch. and it made me understand the nba world better too. girls, get this for your man cause you can enjoy this together.
