Why was Ray Allen given the "He Got Game" role?

[old boy]

Rick Fox is a pretty good actor tbh. If you didn't know who he was, you'd think he was just some regular actor with a supporting role. Think it's because he delivers his lines the way a person would actually talk in real life. Ray was delivering lines but he didn't sound like himself...if that makes any sense.

nah you're right, ray was robotic and you could tell had already decided prior to his scenes how a line was going to be said. betcha a million dollars he was practicing out loud maybe in the mirror which is what you don't do. so instead of being in the moment like rick was (shout out to jackson vahue) everything sounded a little bit canned. i'm nitpicking here lol, but the homie ray allen did a good job overall

AI would’ve been perfect for the role and would’ve made it more of a classic. Ain’t like Ray Allen was Deniro in the movie, how much worse could AI have been?

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

The only problem with AI is he ain't always the smoothest talker to be an actor but everything about him would've been perfect for that role. I think Kobe too because they both had that cockiness and swagger to them that would've added a little something extra compared to Ray. Ray was stiff as hell with his acting but the movie was great regardless. KG probably would've best captured that angry at the world scenes but I think KG was probably too raw at that point. Imagine young KG making the rounds doing interviews for this lol. Even old ass KG is too raw to be let loose imagine him at that age.

Young KG.....yeah Spike woulda had to have some convos with him

that dude is the same corny, stuffy ass negro in every movie he's in

Looking back and realizing that in black Hollywood he was well known... but in white Hollywood he was unknown and was banking on Heroes to be his breakout role and got treated like shyt.

This thread about to make me pull my bluray out

I got the bluray double pack with this and 25th hour


I just love the way this film is shot. Would love to see this get the 4K treatment

Maybe I should post this in the film room, but I was young when this shyt dropped and really don't remember ray allen back then.

he was allen iverson's biggest rival in college.

big star. right on par with iverson, marbury, kobe, camby, etc coming into the league and in the hall of fame now, of course.
