Whitlock's global point (that the doc should have been about Georgetown) is right on point - in fact, the 30 for 30 on Iverson basically did just that, even while digging into his preferential treatment (sort of point/counterpoint, although the agenda of the producer got awkward at the end).

However, Jason Whitlock's grasp of irony is either the best or worst in history. Thanks for making sweeping, grandiose statements talking about how ridiculous it was for the Fab 5 to make sweeping, grandiose statements, Guy Who Writes About Sports For A Living.

All of the 30 for 30 documentaries have been excellent so far.

LOL. I would love to read some examples of Whitlock's sweeping, grandiose statements. Perhaps the difference is that this show was presented as a documentary whereas Whitlock must know that he mixes a few facts with huge editorialism and opinion.
