Trivia
There is a photograph shown (near the end of the documentary) of Maryland's Len Bias guarding a player trying to dribble past him that is Mark Price, who played at Georgia Tech against Bias's team, wearing a Wake Forest #54 jersey. This isn't a goof, but perhaps a deliberately altered image.

Sloppy

I know it's an ESPN thing, but the decisions to center SVP and Jay Bilas in this when they could have easily to more people directly involved in Bias' life really makes this kind of a jarring film to watch. The first thing they cut to after Bias dies is these two ESPN guys who had zero relation with the guy, and only after these really pointless scenes do they go to Bias' mother. At least Bilas played against him, but the SVP footage is gratuitous. I mean it's only a thirty minute documentary, how lazy can you be?
