THE TWO ACTORS HAD TO EAT DRINK AND SLEEP BASKETBALL.OMAR/sot:"two months, two hours everyday, working out with steve spencer, assistant coach of the bruins. but that was fun, he made it a lot of fun. just learning the basics of basketball, the mental game of basketball."SANAA/sot:"i trained everyday for about 5 months, basketball. i went through gruelling intense basketball practices, which is the best workout you could ever have. and there are a lot of pillories, pushups. the director said, you know i want you to look like an athlete, you gotta look like an athlete. she said to me, i want you to have a 6 pack. i was like, uh huh...ok.voorhees/sot:"did you ever have one before."sanaa/sot:"no"voorhees/sot:"and do you now?"sanaa/sot:"no, it's there somewhere"MOVIE CLIPLOVE AND BASKETBALL IS AN AMBITIOUS MOVIE ABOUT AMBITION. EPPS BECOMES A BASKETBALL STAR, AND LATHAN IS FIGHTING SO HARD FOR HER OWN CAREER SHE CAN'T GIVE HIM WHAT HE NEEDS. THEY SAY THESE ARE PROBLEMS ALL MODERN AUDIENCES CAN RELATE TO.epps/sot:"i think with anybody in an industry that brings you fame you're always gonna have to deal with having your face out there. and people, people like what they see on the big eight foot screen. and they just see you anywhere else, you know, getting some frozen chicken, and they just don't know how to react sometime. but yeah, with sports starts they're out there 24/7.sanaa/sot:"it's more confusing these days, i think that women going after careers and being a lot more active. it's champion, you're suppose to have a career these days. but at the same time, you're supposed to be superwoman, you're supposed to have it all. and i think its confusing because, how do you do that? the dilemma is how do you make that work?"LOVE AND BASKETBALL" WON'T ANSWER THAT QUESTION, BUT IT IS A MOVIE THAT WILL MAKE YOU THINK.
