just got back from watching it ... theater was packed ... anyhow it was one hell of a movie ... very enjoyable

It's kind of long, but it moves ... a couple little things I would of switched

I wouldn't of made it as much of a love story w/ashanti and the dude ... but instead focused on the real life ish that is teen pregnancy etc

good message w/out being too preachy

good basketball scenes

and as always samuel jackson is a bad mother.............
