Summary: Dis DVD iz so so def
Review: 40 minutes in total, 20 minutes of bs, 20 minutes of sick moves n' plays. Ball above all, sick dvd or vhs for ya'll. Skip to my lou feature is just trash, while the steve francis feature deserved my cash. Ballaz from around the way, with a section on white boys who can play. Future of flight feature iz so so def, James White's windmills, through the legs and free throw line dunks left me trying to catch my breath. If you put ball above all den dis be the dvd or vhs for ya'll.

Summary: This Video was Lame!!!
Review: After watching AND1 mixtapes from Vol.1 to Vol.4, I thought this video was gonna be something like that. I was WRONG! This Ball Above All video is 95% (...)! When they DO show some basketball, all it shows is a bunch of high school kids doing dunks. Man, if I wanted to see someone dunk, I'd turn on the TV and watch the NBA. I can get that for free. The only part that I liked was when they showed The Future doing some sick moves on his opponents, but that only lasted for about 10 seconds at the end of the video! Most of the video has nothing to do with basketball. Throughout a lot of the video, you'll see all these stupid people (Sinbad, Coolio, and a bunch of other people) sitting around a couch or a barber shop, talkin' about stupid stuff to each other and telling you what you're watching. They even spent time showing cars and speakers! HEY, HOOPSTV.COM! I DIDN'T SPEND MY MONEY TO WATCH STUPID PEOPLE SIT AROUND AND TALK ALL DAY AND SEE SOME STUPID CARS! This tape is lame (...)!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must have for any hoop fan
Review: Ball Above All is a must have for any major hoop fan. It is filled with crazy moves and dunks which originated on the playgrounds. You will be rewinding the tape over and over watching the crazy moves, dunks, and alley-oops. Hoopstv.com really knows their hoops, they put out a great video.If you love streetball style basketball this video is a must have.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ball Above All-rises above all other streetball videos
Review: Excellent mix of hip-hop culture with streetball flavor. Contains ill dunks and ankle breaking crossovers that makes you want to hit the rewind button numerous times. A great video to add to the basketball collection.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: ! BIG DISAPPOINTMENT !
Review: I expected a And One type movie with J.D.'s music in the background. This movie wasn't even made by so so def it was made by some website. the pictures were fuzzy. I think next time JD puts his name on something he should actually review it first.

Summary: best deal I have ever found
Review: I got a bunch of gift certificates for christmas, and I stumbled upon this DVD gem...

The Steve Francis part is sick. I must have watched it 37 times. The music is perfect and Steve goes unconscious for about 27 points, including several explosive dunks over multi defenders, bouncing the ball off a defender's head, perfect form jumpshots, behind the back dribbling infront of defender. I'm not sure when this clip was taken but it was in a Pro City leage game. The clip is great, and steve is one of the best fundamental, unconsciously ballin' players of our time. I cannot watch this clip over enough times.

The James White dunk section is also pretty good.

A funny section on how to play pickup ball for a white dude. This part was pretty funny, and white people should find it helpful. They are rules you should know by now, but if you don't there they are.

The great white lie part was kinda lame. I was disappointed in this section. I couldnt tell if they were goofin' on them or if they really thought those were some tight moves. A few were tight, but some were very lame.

Everyone criticizing this video because it doesnt have rafer alston is dumb. THere is a section on him but it was pretty much a done in a sad light, since in reality it is pretty sad, and rafer has gotten too much hype already and not lived up to it. Sure he was a great ball handler, but there is more to basketball than that. This video is centered around outrageous dunkers, playmakers, and players who Ball Above All. Competitors. Scorers. Atheletes.

Not some goofy little and-1-mix tape.

Summary: Finally
Review: I have a dvd player and have a thing about only buying dvd's. I like basketball a lot and exspecially like the street games such as rucker, and one mix tapes. When i found this video under recommendations i decided to check it out and see whats up with it. Finally a nice street basketball DVD! Even though i have never seen it it sure sounds good!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Necessary for any true fan
Review: I was skeptical at best when I decided to throw down my info and order this video. I love the site but am much more used to seeing professional and college highlights. However I decided to take the chance and was totally rewarded with this great video. Anyone who loves basketball needs to own this. The highlights are unreal, the music is slamming and it captures the unique urban flavor of the site. The Steve Francis segment has to be seen twice to be believed, and although I wish they had more Rafer Alston "Skip to My Lou" Rucker highlites in their "ode", its just a great watch. I got mine last week and have watched it through 4 times already with a variety of my friends/teammates. I cannot wait for Volume Two. Now stop reading the reviews and just buy the thing, already! You won't be disappointed.

Summary: And the Shots Keep Coming....
Review: I'll admit it, I love basketball. I LIVE for the NBA and NCAA seasons to start. There's nothing better than sitting in front of a projector watching art on the hardwood.

I want to give nothing but the highest respect to HoopsTV.com for taking the time to put together the best of the purest artists on the courts. My roommate and I sat in front of the television with our mouths open in amazement. The detail to music and clips was phenomenal, Sinbad was hysterical. I have to admit though, I could've lived without listening to Lil' Bow Wow.
