    Legoat Reymone James

    This show builds up an aura around the NBA, perfectly capturing the essence of characters within the NBA. The old guard of guys like the king Lebron as they move onto the next chapter of their careers not being the MVP caliber player anymore while still being able to defy father time. Or even the more in your face type of players guys like Ant-Man Edward's or Jimmy Butler, showing these personalities off the floor as well depicting the toll the NBA has on a players body and its impact on their family and the dynamics the players have with their families.

    The show is however very convoluted, every episode being a mix of every player i think that if they'd dedicated each episode to just one player instead of traveling the corse of a season it would've been easier to understand especially since you'd have to assume this is aimed towards kids and their first exposure into the NBA. It also forces a lot of narratives and pushes agendas to give to the stars of the show not really accepting the reality of it.

    Are you a Basketball fan or not?

    I don't see how you couldn't like this show if you like basketball!

    It has a personal side to it to get to know the players more than these robotic questions they get asked at press conferences. For so long I've just wanted to get to know the players and now we can.

    One of the best line ups aswell as 1 is a GOAT 1 wins a championship 1 player is looked at as the next biggest thing 1 is struck by a flurry of unfortunate events And Domantis sabonis.

    Great edits the make it a masterpiece And there a lot of humour in here too.

    And alot of Personal BTS Happens to each player that is luck/bad luck of chances.

    Hope they remake this every year!

    No self reflection?

    For me personally, overall some very embarrassing moments in the presentation of these superior athletes. Do they not even in the slightest reflect on the fact that average, everyday people will be the viewers of these scenes / behavior and might really be somewhat disgusted by the presentation of their at times perverse lifestyle???

    You have got male athletes putting on three diamond studded bracelets and then the same number of the same type of necklaces after every game. You hear a player confess that he has NEVER packed or carried his own sport bags or suitcases. Four year old children get Tiffany watches for Christmas and the kids seem to be spoiled on many levels and everyone flies around on luxurious private jets ...

    The actual presentation of the exciting season and its chronological portrayal were great as well as the physical and psychological aspects presented by and about the great players. Lebron´s daughter was a human highlight as was the humility sometimes shown by Sabonis and Tatum.

    Not enough focus on basketball

    I really really like the fact that they showed us the human side of the players and had some focus on their personal lives and families.

    But i think there was actually too much of that and not enough focus on the actual basketball being played.

    Not talking about stats or showing great games of the players, only a few highlights.

    Plus the games represented such a small part of the screen time, it was honestly a dissapointment for me.

    I watched a lot of netflix sports docu and this was my least favorite, if u compare it to the NFL's "Quarterback" and "Reciever", u will see that in those shows there was much more focus on the sport, showing the games, talking about the prep and even analizing them after they were played, Im not even a football fan and i was really invested in finding out whats going to happend, in this show i didnt feel that (and im an nba fan).

    So for me its not that i dont wanna see their personal lifes and know them as people (for example i really like domas and jimmy butler after watching the show), but i think the balance was off here.

    If you're a basketball fan, you'll love it.

    If you love basketball, you'll love this! I love most sporting documentaries and documentary series, even if it's sports that I'm not familiar with, I like to hear stories and see the life about these essential 'super humans' and Starting 5 was no exception, I was fully into from the first episode and have enjoyed it all the way through, seeing the season unfold through different players at their different teams, how they dealt with the season, the losses and the set backs etc. I really hope we get another season focusing on a different 5 players.

    Gave me a better perspective of some players and whilst I'm not a huge LeBron fan, I came away with a different level of respect for him.

    Ant Edwards was by far the most entertaining and enjoyable segments of the series.
