Advantages: Brilliant emotion, acting, action, drama Disadvantages: Nothing, for me
...and some feel good moments. No, this is much more than that. It goes deep into your heart and really plucks at the strings. It makes you laugh out loud. It gives you some brilliant court action with some high flying basketball scenes. And it does so in a way that really makes you feel like you know the characters.
The film focuses on these two all the way through, following them as they tussle with their own on/off relationship, their love for the game and their love for each other developing as the film takes us through different stages in their lives. We are constantly kept guessing as to their own relationship, and whether it will blossom or whether it is platonic and they are best friends, or whether they are destined for each other. Omar Epps and Sanaa Lathan portray the innocence and determination of both characters immensely well...
Advantages: Immersive story line, believable acting, soundtrack Disadvantages: Very basketball orientated - difficult to understand if you don't know much about basketball
...I purchased this film many years ago, in fact I think it was about 6 years ago, maybe 7, and I watched it for the millionth time last night and thought to myself "people really need to know how good this film is"... Because lets face it, if you haven't already heard of it, and you don't love basketball then why should you ever bother to watch it? Right?
Well hopefully i'll convince you its a good idea. But i'll make sure I show you why I like it, and why some people may not.
Well firstly, the story. The film is a story of 2 next door neighbors that have been living next to each other since they were kids. Both of them (a boy and a girl) love the sport of basketball. The boy, Quincy, (Omar Epps) has dreams of making it big time in the NBA (National Basketball Association) and has all the tools and money to do so, due to his father being...
Advantages: It's just sick Disadvantages: Lots of rules
...step more than 2 steps, without dribbling, this goes against the rules.
<<<Double Dribble>>>
This is when a player has dribbled. Once this action is complete, legally they are not able to do anything else, apart from pass or shoot. If someone was to hold the ball after dribbling, and dribble again, this would be a double dribble, called this for obvious reasons.
If a player dribbled the ball with two hands, this would also be a double dribble; this is why they only do it with two.
<<<Goaltending>>>
This is to stop a defender standing straight in front of the basket and just batting the ball away whenever a ball comes to the basket. The rule states that you are not able to intercept the path of a basketball once it has peaked, and is travelling downwards after a shot. This could be compared to the off-side rule in football...

Review of Basketball - General
Advantages: Great graphics, great sound, good fun - an all round excellent game Disadvantages: The controls are awkward to get used to
...Mario Slam Basketball is a fast, challenging and action packed 3 on 3 basketball game. In single player mode you select a team consisting of 3 of the popular Nintendo characters from the ?Mario and Luigi? genre and challenge a team of 3 other characters in a game of basketball with a difference.
In this game there are no set scores for scoring a basket. Points are awarded for dribbling the ball over ??? boxes on the court floor and collecting coins on the way to either placing or slam-dunking the ball in to the opponents basket. This is the only game of basketball I know of whereby it is possible to score over 100 points with one slam-dunk.
The court contains ?weapons? that you can use on your opponents and that your opponents can use on you. In true Mario genre style there are red and green shells that can be picked up and thrown...
Advantages: Has a message, good film, Di Caprio at his best Disadvantages: None
...Introduction ~~
Set in the early 1970’s in New York the Basketball Diaries is about young and talented basketball player – Jim Carroll (Leonardo Di Caprio) Carroll is a promising basketball player who will make it to the top with a little bit of effort and skill. Wanting to become a basketball player is difficult and it means drugs and alcohol are a no-no but living in 1970’s New York Jim Carroll just can’t resist the temptations of drugs and prostitutes which are all around him.
Cast ~~
I have to admit to never rating Leonardo Di Caprio as an actor, thinking that he only starred in corny, cheesy blockbusters but his outstanding performance in the Basketball Diaries completely changed my opinion. Acting as a stoned junkie must be the hardest task for an actor and Di Caprio excels as it.
Though you must...
Advantages: Incredibly durable for both indoor and outdoor Disadvantages: High price tag, goes flat quite quickly
...I purchased this basketball a few months back at the BBL (British Basketball Association) playoff weekend. I bought this ball mainly as memorabilia for the day I spent at the event. It's an indoor basketball and therefore it's the highest quality possible. It's made of full synthetic leather and is licensed by FIBA.
Once I had taken the ball home I decided to actually go ahead and use the ball. But instead of using it only inside I decided to use it outside first. As of today I am still using this ball outside and have been for around 2 - 3 months now. The ball has lasted incredibly well. So well in fact that I don't think I will need to purchase another ball for about a year. I use this ball daily for about 3 hours at a time, sometimes longer depending on the weather. I play at high level, I have been invited to England team trials in...
Advantages: Designed So Younger Children Can Easily Score Baskets Disadvantages: Its So Good I Never Get A Turn :o(
...Product
This is a great basketball set for younger children and can be adjusted to six different height's.
The basket net is large making it easy for your child to get the ball in the net. The rim has also been designed to make it easier for younger children to score.
The base is black and has a plug with stopper so you can put sand or water in to weight your basketball net down so it doesn't fall over. The adjustable arm is yellow and the net is white with a red trim, the backboard is white.
The set comes with a small basket ball which looks like a smaller version of the real thing. The basketball is softer and safer, a real basketball could hurt a small child as they are very hard. The softer basketball is a great idea allowing smaller children to be able to play safely. You can use a harder ball for older...
Advantages: Great full for all age ranges Disadvantages: A bit fiddly to get the net on
...The basketball set was bought for my 2-year olds birthday. It took a bit of time to put up and the net was a bit fiddly to put on, but once up its great fun. The adjustable height for the hoop is great - I have 2 teenagers, a 5 year old and my 2 year old and everyone could play together. Its easy to adjust the hoop through to the different heights. The bottom height, I feel, is still a little to high for my youngest to put the ball in without any help, so maybe it could have done with being lowered slightly. Other than that its great for keeping the kids entertained and outside away from the playstations and the television. I think the age range should say from 3 years onwards and not 2 like stated on the box...
Advantages: Great grip, soft leather texture, comfortable to play with. Disadvantages: Quite an expensive ball.
...Have you ever fought over a seat at the movies ? or maybe the last sweet in the bag ? or maybe even a place in the queue ? well here's a basketball that will get you and your team-mates wrestling for a feel. As a basketball player I have experienced playing with many basketballs in both categories, indoor and outdoor. The Baden Lexum taught me to be a ball hog. This comfortable soft leather basketball is definatly in my opinion one of the best basktballs in the market. It is really comfortable, easy to handle as a point guard, provides a rasonable amount of grip and taught me how to shoot. The quality of the ball is excellent and keeps its grip and texture for a lengthy period of time if used properly indoors ....
Advantages: Action Disadvantages: This isn't 'The Terminator'
...So here we have a farewell to the darker, Terminator stuff of Arnie's earlier career; a tasteless, clumsy mix of action, comedy and satire; one of the biggest flops of 1993 and the 1990s in general.
For all the things that people have labelled Last Action Hero down the years, however, I still can't bring myself to hate it. It's hardly amazing, I'll admit, but I'd still much rather watch this than half the action films that come out these days.
It's a self-conscious parody of action movie clichés (made famous primarily by Schwarzenegger himself) and for the most part it comes across quite entertaining. There's plenty of moments concerned with Arnie blowing shit up and making witty remarks about it; and he even meets his real-life counterpart face-to-face and gets the opportunity to poke some fun at himself. Confused? Allow me to...
