Did anyone actually root for the Brooklyn Nets this season? Did Hov only do that so hopefully you won’t have to go through that?
This article about the making of Kids and what happened to the cast since 1995 by Caroline Rothstein is better than the movie itself.

To remind us of simpler times, we upgraded the quality on the 2009 Mind Field re-edit.
