Using some funk to the dunk
Jackie Moon is the director, promoter, mentor, and star player of the American Basketball Association’s Flint Michigan Tropics (ABA). Before the American Basketball Association (ABA) fails in 1976, the National Basketball Association (NBA) prepares to integrate with the ABA’s strongest teams at the end of the season. Only the top four teams will switch, while the bottom four will fold. The Tropics are the weakest team in the league, and Jackie Moon needs to mobilize his team and start playing if they want to make it to the NBA. The only issue is that Jackie Moon is not the mentor and star basketball player that he claims to be. Jackie Moon must lead his team to fourth position in the playoffs to save his team from oblivion and make his impact on the area.
