Blue Chips details the exact thing that goes on with a lot of these colleges (especially North Carolina & Kentucky) for years.
 
it only really comes down to two..can't jump and above the rim..it depends if i wanna laugh or want a lil drama in my life..technically i seen can't jump more so that's the winner by default
 
Above the Rim and Space Jam were my favorites..
I can watch all of those movies, honestly.
 
Above The Rim has the best soundtrack walking away but might be the worst actual 'basket ball' movie...behind space jam.

*two cents*
