5 minutes or 5 seconds!

Very good inspirational movie, it is not so much inspirational as it is the counterattack of black people!
In terms of pure basketball, the classic battle of the NCAA has been restored, which is very hot and exciting, but when the coach decided to let them play their own style, it has also risen from the basketball level to the spirit, black resistance and other levels.

The thing that moved me the most in the film was: willie (the guy with the heart attack)'s mother found the coach before the game, and at the end her mother said this:

"This is his time"
"These are the last games he'll ever play"
"I don't care if just five minutes or five seconds."
"Just..let him play" Willie

responded to coach saying "You're a fool. You' after he was found to have a heart attack" re a dang fool. You could have died out there"

"Coach, I'll die if I don't play"
"Look,coach.My whole life I only loved playing basketball."
"That's it.But you see.I could never play in high school"
"Beacuse I had to work to support my mom and my sisters"

"That was like letting something just crawl up and die in me:

that kind of love for basketball, that kind of spirit that goes all out for a sport, for a ball, and having to make people's hearts warm and just want to roar :



I Love This Game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
