"Glory Road" is directed by James Gartner, starring Josh Lucas, Derek Luke, McCard Brooks, sports inspirational film, released in the United States in 2006.

The film tells the story of white coach Dan Haskins leading an all-black college basketball team to a college championship.

This is a classic basketball inspirational film, adapted from a true story. In the United States in the 1960s, when racial discrimination was prevalent, coach Don resisted the pressure to recruit 7 black players and began a difficult basketball struggle - the road of glory.

The plot is extremely simple. A former women's basketball coach led the team at an unknown university. At a time when racial perceptions were full, he called in seven black players, and formed a miners team with several white players. He grew up amid the constant controversy and competed in the game. China made history by defeating the four-time champion Wildcats and winning the 1966 NCAA championship. It's such a simple story, but it's so easy to move and infect people.

A little-known, patchwork western team, a team that recruited multiple black players for the first time, a coach from a high school girls basketball team, and a group of people who really love basketball came together to create a miracle in basketball history. . They made it all the way to the finals, but behind the final victory was hard and strict basic training, all kinds of ridicule, insults, jokes, and intimidation. On the field, their strength and determination to fight for the championship came from the deepest sense of dignity in their hearts. desire and love for the game of basketball.

I have seen a group of basketball players who are working hard for their dreams. Although they are black, this does not affect their love for basketball and sports. Even if white people discriminate against them at first, so what? It is to win and conquer them. .

The most respected is the rational basketball coach. He was the first to use black players. In his concept, the players he wants only need to be very good at playing. He doesn't mind skin color, he cares about skills, and he cares about speed! No matter what race he is, it turns out he was right, his persistence, his strategy, his love for his players, he was the main factor in winning. I think this also proves that sports know no borders.

This group of people who were picked by famous schools, this group of people who never recognized their worth, were all turned into gold by coach Hudgens. At first they didn't think they could continue playing basketball, and they finally made a concerted effort to win the championship from the strongest white team. No one thought they would make history, but the coaches knew they could. The road to glory begins with a group of self-sacrificing people and their hidden talents and passions.

Maybe it's just an inspirational movie in the eyes of others, but this is a movie based on real events. There is a sentence in the film that I remember very clearly. The coach told a player that I am not the greatest player, and I am not a talented player, but I work harder than a talented player. I'm not the greatest coach, but I work harder than the greatest.

That's right, your talent, your personality, your ability, these are all your capital, but you have to take the usual way, although you can find shortcuts, this is your ability, but you don't get carried away, everyone is It is a step-by-step approach, so that it is practical. Remember that there are no absolute boundaries.

Sports spirit is a reflection of the overall appearance, fairness, justice, openness, fairness, characteristics and cohesion, appeal and appeal of sports, and is a symbol of sports ideals, beliefs, ethics and sports knowledge, sports ethics, and sports aesthetics. The backbone and soul of sports. In my opinion, the Miners is a good interpretation of sportsmanship.

At the end of the final game, the joy of victory surrounded all the players. We saw countless arms cheering, white and black. This group of dark skins won more than just one game, and more, as their coach said, basketball is not just about winning championships.

At the beginning of the formation of the Miners team, no one expected that they would be the biggest upset in NCAA history to win the championship. However, the entire team, from the coaches to the players, does not have this dream, yes, they all have this dream.

For the Miners players and coaches, whether they won the championship or not, they have worked hard, paid, and have no regrets. There is often a saying in sports competition, which is called "the focus is on participation". Yes, it's really about participation, the point is that you feel it, and they don't just feel it.
