I got a few:

- That behind-the-scenes process that Pat Riley used to assemble this Miami Thrice-era of Bron, Bosh, & Wade, told by them.
- The rivalry of Isaiah and Mike, and everyone who got caught up in it.
- That epic first round of the Celtics/Bulls series in 2009.
- The Patriots 2007 season, where that went 18-1.
- David Justice & Halle Berry. (? would be funny as hell)
- The World Cup's pure craziness.
- The bomber blowing ? up in ATL during the '96 Olympics


Anyone got any else?

    Was just listening to a sports talk radio segment on this question yesterday. In mine I'm just gonna assume 30 for 30 doing them.

    1) Randy Moss' early post HS years (Signing with ND being denied enrollment due to the fight at his HS, Going to FSU being kicked off the team, then playing at Marshall)

    2) Lakers Summer 1996 (Revolved around Jerry West's recruitment of Shaq and behind the scenes of the Kobe acquisition)

    That's off top I'll end up coming up with more.

    Michael Phelps and Usain Bolt getting documentaries about their rises to the top, chronicling their unprecedented dominance in back-to-back Olympic games and achievement of GOAT status in their sports.

    What went on behind the scenes and scouting process that led Portland TrailBlazers to draft Sam Bowie and Greg Oden over MJ and Kevin Durant.

    Jessie Owens and Joe Louis punking ? 's hand chosen '? master race' athletes and even getting cheered on by racist american whites during the events.

    A what-could've-been documentary of Tracy McGrady, Grant Hill, Vince Carter and Penny Hardaway. Players who each had the talent, size and athleticism to become top 10 NBA players of all time, but due to injuries or laziness didn't reach their potential.

    A Georgetown Hoyas doc from the Ewing through Iverson era. Specifically John Thompson's building of the program and all the backlash he and the team had to face. How tough it had to be in DC during all those drug murders during the Rayful Edmond days.

    HBO had a doc called Curse Of The Bambino (I think that's the name of it) later updated to Reverse the curse after the Sox finally won the WS. It had a good segment detailing that '86 WS especially from a fans point of view. Good ? .

    One of mine from last year came true... Barry Switzer.

    A duel 30-for-30 about him and Bozworth is dropping in October.

    - Also we need a non-biased one about the sonics/Thunder transition. (So the truth about most sonics not giving a ? about them moving is exposed.) and how technically the OKC bombing started a domino effect that led to OKC getting a team.

    - Neion Deion

    - Braves in the 90s

    There's actually already a documentary about it that's quite popular and critically acclaimed. It's just biased. Called Sonicsgate.

    It was shown online for free when it was released and got half a million views and then aired on MSNBC and CNBC, and ESPN Classic.

    Oh...

    A good doc would be on Anthony Carter(dude who used to be the backup PG for the Nuggets for a while). He used to play for drug-dealers in Atlanta before he made it to the league. Think his team was called the Kirkwood Boys and they'd play in hood vs hood tournaments.

    Damn, all the lil-bow-bow "I wanna be like Iverson" era nikkas would tune in to that.

    Nikkas would shed tears too.

    Muhfuggas swore up and down them And-1nikkas was "too real for the league."

    I knew the Harlem Hoodtrotters would only last so long...
