Studio Synopsis: In the early 1970s, there were two basketball leagues in AmericaÑwhile the NBA ruled the sport, the ABA was defined by its outlaw flair and sensational showmanship. Jackie Moon, the one-hit singing sensation behind ÒLove Me Sexy,Ó relishes his role as owner, coach and power forward for the fictional Flint, Michigan Tropics of the ABA. But when the NBA announces a plan to merge with the ABA and only take with them the four teams with the best records, disbanding the rest of the ABA squads forever, Moon, assisted by former NBA benchwarmer Ed Monix (Woody Harrelson), decides to rally his motley team for an unlikely eleventh-hour pursuit of acceptance and glory.
