It's got to be Coach Carter, absolutely quality film with some memorable quotes. White Men can't jump is another film I do enjoy.

Glory road all the way !

Although I loved he got game, coach carter, space jam and white men cant jump, you gotta go with glory road, a nice story without falling in the excess of coach carter and nice acting so...

sorry to flame bro, but that is a ignorant statement. but I think it could be said this is about the point Spike started losing some stream as it has been a while since I can remember anything truly memorable from 40 acres. His early work though, especially Do the Right Thing and Malcolm X are defining statements. She's gotta have it is one of the great underground debuts of all time, and even stuff like Mo Better Blues, Crooklyn and Girl 6 are awesome flicks/

If you have any interest, I would suggest watching them in that order.

Hooisers is a great story about midwest high school basketball. Specifically, Indiana. It is also a true story, based on an overachieving squad from Milan IN.

Above the Rim is a street ball movie, featuring Tupac and Leon. Good soundtrack.

Semi-Pro is a Farrell comedy if you're into that sort of thing. Also has Woody.

Glory Road is a true story of the championship UTEP team. I won't divulge, but a great story to coincide with the civil rights movement.
