jonattonyeah It’s good. But no way can it ever be ranked ahead of “When We Were Kings” to my mind.

not sure if i’ve seen that or not, i’ll take a look. i’m pretty sure i watched 75% of the bulls games from maybe 89-98, every playoff game for sure, so it’s cool to relive it with a different perspective.

    Gave reckoning a go last night. Unbelievably bad. The acting is straight out of a cheesy American soap opera.

    Anything new and decent on netflix seems to becoming more and more rare.

    Mad_Cyril I stick to the foreign language stuff mostly.

    You must be an absolute pro at reading subtitles.

        Thought MC had a live in translator who kips under the stairs of his mansion. who only comes out when he’s watching Netflix

          Yes it is brilliant isn’t it? I’m not a basketball fan by any stretch but this has me hooked.

          Do they really play 82 games in a league season? Are they playing every 3rd day or something?

              Anyone dived into White Lines yet? Looking for some feedback before starting it…

                Don’t do it!

                  White lines is absolutely awful . I lasted one episode.

                  gcw i think one of the reasons its so good is that enough time has passed that everyone involved is willing to be pretty honest. and yeah, they play way too many games, one of the many reasons i haven’t followed the nba in quite a while.

                    They play for 48 minutes a game and have squads of 15 people and only 5 on the court. The Premier League play for twice as long and more than half the games.

                    I loved the game as a kid and represented my school up to under 13s and then my fucking parents moved and the school I went to didn’t play it. The problem with watching it now for me is that games are only interesting at the end and only if they’re close - I realise that’s not how it is, it’s just how I view it.

                    Those baskets in that Jordon documentary are breathtaking.

                      Always been amazed at how easy they make slam dunks look. I am 6 ft 5 and I don’t think I can touch the hoop, let alone get above it to dunk.

                      It’s the changing direction whilst floating through the air that’s the miracle.

                      Was also surprised at how Jordan keeps his cool in front of the media. Always got 20+ cameras in his face, asking the same questions over and over. Yet always seems willing to talk, never gets stressed out. Contrast that with some of the interviews on match of the day!
