The original White Men Can't Jump(WMCJ) is quite possibly the best sports movie ever made. A story about street-ball hustlin' and yet another parable about not judging a book by it's cover. But WMCJ is also about a guy who may hustle on the court, but life is a different beast all together. This movie came around at exactly the perfect time. The dying age of Larry Bird, but before the European renaissance in the NBA. So brothers overwhelmingly dominated the makeup of the league. Although the absolute best part of WMCJ(besides it also being infinitely quoteable), is how at the heart it's just a buddy comedy. Two people that become good friends, whose only thing in common is a true love for ball. Sometimes that's enough.
