I liked the show as a kid! I hope to see it again as an adult. Well The White Shadow had an ex pro player as the p e teacher and basketball coach at an inner city high school. There were so many memorable episodes. One of the players get shot by the cops, the friend who had a drinking problem, and the time salami got into that court case over a basketball game fight. What made the show was the characters. What work was the coach was cocky, but got humble sometimes. A good mix of the human condition, as many the players went threw trials inside and outside of the court. I don't think The White Shadow could follow todays P C rules book for T V, just too real, but would have to be re done on cable. I will have to watch it again and see how well The White Shadow aged.
