Reflection #5

The film featured the lives of  two kids, Arthur and William, as the try to become NBA players. The two boys started very similarly, as they lived in the same place, and attended the same school. However, the route that both of these stories took was very different from each other. Arthur was kicked out of St. Joseph's because of money issues, and William had trouble playing because of a knee injury, and his grades. Arthur's father also had a great effect on him, but he kept playing until he finally received a scholarship in college in order for him to keep playing. William decided that while he loved basketball, he no longer had any interest in pursuing it as a career. Even though, both stories had some unexpected turns, at the end we see them happy with the decisions each made.
