Description:
The role of basketball players as star performers is explored and celebrated in this documentary produced by NBA Entertainment. Some players over the years have stood out for their flashy play on the hardwood, and what makes someone a true performer is demonstrated with a wealth of game footage featuring some amazing ball handling and shooting from the likes of Earvin "Magic" Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Isiah Thomas, and Jason Kidd. Footage from the archival vaults features the great Bob Cousy, and profiles of young star performers include Allen Iverson (whose relatively short stature is more than made up for with deft moves on the court), Shaquille O'Neal (who physically dominates just about anyone else), and Jason Williams (whose career is chronicled going back to home videos of his high-school playing days). Framing the action sequences are numerous interviews with players, coaches, and sportscasters, but that's really the icing on the cake. The whole point is to be dazzled by the flashy moves on the court in beautifully shot game footage. Some of the action is truly amazing, incredible passes and shots that bring crowds to their feet and will leave viewers at home scratching their heads and asking, "How'd he do that?" --Robert J. McNamara
