I know I'm late to the game but just finished Glory Road for the first time. Replaces Hoosiers as my favorite.
One list I saw has it at #8 of top twenty. I thought it would have been much higher up.

If you would, share your favorite bball movie. (I saw a few on the list I think I want to watch.)

Glory Road was overly Disneyfied.

Fun fact, the classroom scenes in Glory Road were shot at my high school.

Okay, it wasn't that fun of a fact. But it was a big deal when it happened.

This is just my personal order and in no way reflects how "good" the movies may or may not be in the general hollywood sense of good:

#1) Hoosiers
#2) Blue Chips
#3) Space Jam
#4) He Got Game
#5) Hoop Dreams

I'm also a big fan of White Men Can't Jump as well as the Pistol Pete movie.

On a serious note, check out 1000 to 1 on Netflix. True story and very inspirational. Might just be because I'm his age but who knows, y'all olds may like it too.

Don't need to be a Hollywood wonk to know that Hoop Dreams is much better than a movie that features Porky Pig and anything with Nick Nolte and his over-acting...and the gross stereotypes and over-simplified storylines utilized throughout Blue Chips.

1. Hoosiers
2. Hoop Dreams
3. The rest

Hoosiers is easily the best IMO. I'll watch it when I catch it during channel flipping...it has held up very well.

I guess what I liked about Glory Road was I learned a lot about that year. However, after watching the movie I went to Wiki to read about Don Haskins to sort out some of the fallacies in the movie.

I see from movies listed above I have a few more to watch as no one actually had anything good to say about Glory Road.

Blue Chips is not a good movie, but it's an awesome movie.

Love that movie. Used to watch it and Hoosiers every year at a basketball camp I went to as a kid and they never got old.
