Celtic Pride

[Zards]

Anyone seen/like this movie? I feel it doesn't get mentioned enough when talking about 'Best Basketball Movies'. It's a funny movie with Damon Wayans (love the guy).<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The National Basketball Association play-offs are taking place, and the Boston Celtics are facing the Utah Jazz in a crucial series. This is also the last year that any games will be played in the Boston Garden, which is going to be torn down after the end of the season. Mike and Jimmy, two die-hard sports fans who will risk anything for the Celtics to win, are really getting into the games. The Celtics would be a sure win if it weren't for Lewis Scott, the cocky, loud-mouth star of the Jazz. After Scott himself punishes the Celtics in a bad loss, Mike and Jimmy decide to take things into their own hands by kidnaping Scott and holding him until after the crucial game takes place.</div>www.imdb.com

I've seen it, it's funny. But I don't think it's one of the best basketball movies.

I've seen this movie at least 4-5 times, I like it a lot. I agree with Rok though, it's funny but it's not one of the top basketball movies.

As usual, in this movie, the Celtics lose too.

Great movie. My all-time favorite basketball movie. "I'm not going to raise your kids. I don't even like kids." Lmao

its a pretty funny movie... not a basketball movie like coach carter is or glory road is, but definitely basketball themed. I like it, good/funny movie.

It was a pretty good movie, and holds the distinction as the worst Judd Apatow movie.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (LAZY @ Jul 16 2007, 04:48 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Jazz music sucks</div>that was totally out of context and incorrect.

It is a great movie for me. Freakin hilarious. Yeah there are probably more great movies out there. Just too lazy to find them.

I think it's funny. I'll watch anything with Ackroyd in it. He's great.

I have to watch this movie to feel what its like to win a title, since the Jazz never have this is the closest I can get.
