This is a message a lot of kids have been waiting to hear.

But the movie overcomes its lack or originality in the setup by making good use of its central idea, that a pair of sneakers could make a kid into an NBA star.

In a role that could have been deadly with the wrong kind of kid actor, he's the right kind, a no-nonsense professional who wisely plays the fantasy as if it were real.Ī lot of the surrounding plot is recycled from other movies, of course, including the playground bully, the tried-and-true orphanage situations (the kids are like puppies hoping for new owners) and the last-minute, cliff-hanging plays of the big games. He is confident and relaxed on the screen, engaging, and has good moves on the basketball court. Its in excellent condition & fits around a Mens Large. Rapper Lil' Bow Wow (who has since dropped the 'Lil' ') is responsible for a lot of the movie's success. Like Mike- Calvin Cambridge 3 by king attire, basketball sleeveless white jersey made with high quality material to give full comfort, with price 28.99. This Like Mike Calvin Cambridge jersey is one of the coldest jerseys from a hoops movie ever.

Wearing the magic sneakers, he makes Air Jordan look like a puddle jumper. The kind coach of the local NBA team ( Robert Forster) gives Calvin some tickets to a game, he ends up in a halftime shooting contest with an NBA star and, wearing the sneakers, outshoots the star so dramatically that the team owner signs him up-as a gimmick, of course, although Calvin is soon in the starting lineup and leading his team to the finals. Ox throws the sneakers so they hang by their laces from a power line, Calvin climbs up a tree in a storm to retrieve them, lightning strikes, and somehow the sneakers and the lightning magically combine to make him like Mike. His best buddy is Murph ( Jonathan Lipnicki), and his worst enemy is Ox ( Jesse Plemons). He lives in an orphanage that seems to be running as a profitable scam.
