More than a game imdb

He never finished high school. Lamaar "Money" Mondane's NBA dream never came true either, but he at least achieved a modicum of fame when Reebok selected him to appear in a popular advertising campaign on "playground legends.

And then there are the games themselves, hard-fought and competitive. One player crashes recklessly, headfirst, into a steel support to save a loose ball.

A skinny teen soars to slam home a spectacular dunk, a play worthy of any SportsCenter highlight reel. An argument threatens to erupt into chaos when two players refuse to give ground on a foul call. The instant replay proves inconclusive. Witnessing this passion and intensity we begin to understand why the game is so important to countless players, young and old. Why, in fact, it is More than a Game. An illuminating, rollicking and oft-times heartbreaking account of Chicago playground basketball.

Fourteen years prior to this movie I watched "Hoop Dreams" about a couple of high school basketball players. So, I still would've watched "More Than a Game" regardless of the name of the athlete featured.

I remember when I first heard all the LeBron James talk in early I didn't pay a lot of attention to it, but it's significant because I live in California. To be hearing about a high school basketball player all the way here in California means that he was a big deal. I like documentaries in general, so I'd recommend it anyway. And for you basketball fans, and especially for you LeBron fans, this is a must.
