I hate these type of things, but there is novelty in seeing random actors be JJ Redick, Chris Paul, Doc Rivers etc.

Didnt even know O'Neil and supposedly Sterling were in such good shapes. By the end, I have pictured Sterling as the guy who can barely walk, IDK.

4 touchdowns in a single game.

True, O'Neil and Fishburne aren't random actors, they are very famous. I have never pondered who should play Doc, never thought we would need such a thing. But I just tried to say how weird and novel is when they make such series or films based on very recent events featuring well known people, and cast actors in those roles.

They no doubt going to make similar thing of Donald Trump. Who do you thing should play that, or Mitch McConnell, Biden. Hillary etc.? No matter what, it would be strange to see such a thing and it is strange seeing this, I knew this was happening, I think we all did, but still weird seeing actual trailer.

P.S. Bernie Sanders is easily Christopher Lloyd.

Not my cup of tea and I will def. not be watching it, but seeing Doc Rivers aka freaking Lawrence Fishburne with that hairline in the video thumbnail gave me a good chuckle :lol:

I feel like Hollywood is running out of original ideas so all they do now is rehash old franchises or make biopics. It's kinda crazy to me they're going to stretch this out into a whole series, I could understand if they went on to win the title that year but not really sure how they end this after the initial scandal happens.

lol it’s basically the Clippers version of The People Vs OJ Simpson.

The OJ one was super cheesy at first but then actually got pretty interesting and entertaining

nvm
on a serious note this Trump Era has so much potential to be viewed as an alternate reality. it is not even a drama or a comedy anymore.
