Tired of the selfish financial wrangling between NBA owners and players?
HBO Sports premieres "Prayer for a Perfect Season" (7 p.m. Tuesday), an involving documentary about basketball that is played for school, community, family, friends and simply for the love of the game.
Centering on the 2010-11 boys basketball season, the 90-minute production follows the team from St. Patrick High School, located in the hardscrabble neighborhood of Elizabeth N.J.
The team's season culminates with a traditional championship battle with a rival from Jersey City.
The sports story is told along with the dramatic intersection of two forces — the soaring media interest in the "big game" and the problems dealing with the decline of the Catholic school's academic programs.
The documentary often has the feel of a real-life version of "Hoosiers."
