The actual plot of DON'T NOBODY LOVE THE GAME MORE THAN ME is not all that important. What is important is watching these four men do a darn good job of acting--and because of this, I can strongly recommend this independent film.
Four Black men who appear to be about 30-40 years of age are playing basketball. After the game, they start having a friendly argument about who loves basketball the most. Each tries to one-up the other until finally one of them tells a story about the worst basketball player EVER.
Although you probably won't recognize their faces since they only have a few screen credits each, interestingly enough all four have done stints on the "Law and Order" shows on NBC. Perhaps that's where they met or perhaps that's just the show for struggling New York actors to make their mark. Regardless, with the quality of acting, you can't help but assume you'll be seeing a lot more of the men. They all had a relaxed and realistic delivery--solid professionals throughout.
