1. against the cadets, scott wolfs out rolling around for a tie up (should have been a jump ball) but then he jumps up (traveling) and nothing is called, i get it everyone was in shock but this bothered me

2. micks obvious flagrant fouls in the title game just called as regular fouls

3. mick standing under the hoop on the winning fts, would be by his bench

4. finstock congratulating i think brad on taking a charge in the title game when he was on offense and mick fouled him (i thought this was intentional because he was supposed to be clueless though)

still an awesome movie, one of the best 80s movies ever, win in the end!

Agree on 1 and 3, don't remember 4 but with 2 flagrant fouls came about well after the 80s. Back in the 70s, 80s, etc. it was perfectly OK to hammer a guy for the foul.

How about someone as short as M J Fox on the basketball team?

I think that was intentional. They were supposed to be the worst team in the league. So you had a short guy, a fat guy etc....

5. At the beginning of the game versus the military school, Scott is awarded two free throws for a foul that occurred mere seconds into the game at mid-court just after the tip-off, where he wasn't in the act of shooting.
