About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a funny, fast-moving sports comedy with hustling, rivalry, and friendship, in the vein of Bull Durham or Major League; Not for you if you dislike gambling-focused plots or dated humor.
Pros: hilarious back-and-forth banter; strong lead chemistry; lively streetball energy | Cons: some jokes wear thin; feels dated at times; side plots uneven
