BTW, Baron Davis and Steve Nash dabbled in film making before Kobe just to name two famous ones. Their product was not Oscar nominated. Unlike the Kobe effort it was also less of a narcissistic exercise and imo less cheesy.
(Okp animosities aside...serious documentary recommendation: check for Unarmed Verses by former athlete now film maker Charles Officer. Prob under the Oscars' radar but seriously dope: https://vimeo.com/212776693)
