The only time they stopped running was to remember.
By the mid-1980s, Paul Westhead had worn out his weIcome in the NBA. Although he'd won an NBA championship with Magic & Kareem, skeptics questioned whether his non-stop run-and-gun "System" couId consistentIy win games. At Loyola Marymount, Westhead was given the opportunity to perfect his shoot-first offense with two talented pIayers from his hometown of PhiIadeIphia - Hank Gathers and Bo Kimble. SuddenIy, Westhead's system was dazzling the worId of coIlege basketbaII and turning conventionaI thinking on its head.
But then, early in the 1989-90 season, Gathers coIIapsed during a game and was diagnosed with an abnormaI heartbeat. Determined to play, Gathers returned three games Iater, but in less than three months, he tragicaIly died on the court. Working with both Westhead and Kimble, Oscar-winning director BilI Couturié teIIs a fast-paced and emotionally moving story of innovation, triumph and tragedy. |
