Swagger

My title says it all. O'Shea takes this from a mediocre watch to a fun watch.

Other notes:

-The basketball is believable enough to where it doesn't ruin the show.

-I like the emphasis on social media, and how it drives a lot of decisions today, and how much of a negative impact it can have.

-Because this show revolves around sports, you have to suffer through some typical cliches, like the evil white coach who has a backwards baseball hat on at all times. Or the star player is selfish, makes his teammates mad episode that always occurs.

Overall, cliches aside, I've enjoyed the first 3 episodes and I look forward to more. Apple + is really starting to find its groove with its original content.

I operate in the world of elite grassroots basketball (formerly pure AAU) on both the girls and boys side, and the storylines are VERY accurate. Don't get me wrong, nobody is going to win an award for their acting in this. However, they're very believable, and the basketball is actually watchable. That aside, the way these stories are developing is 100% accurate - unscrupulous coaches who forget the kids they're coaching AND COACHING AGAINST are just kids, the way people don't pay enough attention to girls basketball, parents who have put an "I" in team somehow, and most importantly the reliance on social media for affirmation and it's affect on the psyche of our youth.

Great writing, Great Acting, Real life stories. The creative team has done an a amazing job with this show. I've watched all episodes and thought episode 7 was the best, until I saw episode 8. Can't wait to see how it ends.

I love this show! I live in B'more and they did a great job capturing the interpersonal drama as well as the struggles.

It's refreshing to see a show mix races and not attack either one. I'm tired of seeing shows push some political agenda, but Swagger tells a story and forces you to connect with the characters.

It's is a look into the life of young hoopers on the day to day. The ups, downs, highs and lows of living in the inner city without resources but with talent and a dream. I love the characters and the music is on point! I can't wait to see MORE!!!
