Wonderful and oddly touching

"Don't Nobody Love the Game More Than Me" is a wonderful short film about four guys who, after finishing a round of hoops, debate on whether one of them 'loves the game' more than everybody else. There are no great speeches, no jaw-dropping statements- just a ten-minute glimpse into the lives of four Average Joes who truly love the game. The question of the film- whether Pops really does love the game more than everybody else- is answered at the end of the film in a speech given by one of the characters that's truthful, funny, and oddly touching. This is a wonderful short.
