When a down-on-his-luck basketball scout finds a potential superstar in Spain, he sets out to prove they both have what it takes to make it in the NBA.
What a great sports movie. You can feel the love that Adam Sandler has for basketball in this movie. Right down to the very last line in the movie. The feeling of coaching he has is all expressed in the last line for me. This is a great coming-of-age story about a scout for the 76ers that really wants to be a coach. After finding the next big sensation and no one listening to his endorsements he decides to train him himself and the rest is history. If you are a fan of the NBA this one has dozens of cameos of current and former NBA superstars. If you are a sports fan, this one should be added to your movie bucket list. It is quite entertaining. Worth a watch for sure. Well done Adam and Netflix.
