Die Chance seines Lebens (1979)
David Greene, Angestellter eines Delikatessen-Restaurants in New York, ist ein riesiger Basketball-Fan, der selber mal coachen möchte. Die Chance bietet sich ihm, als er das Angebot erhält, ein am Boden liegendes Team zu betreuen. Überraschenderweise gelingt es ihm, eine schlagkräftige Mannschaft zu formen. Doch die letzte Aufgabe gegen einen schier übermächtigen Gegner muss noch bestanden werden...
