I don't follow the basketball board as much during football season, so this series may have been discussed at length.
As I understand it...Basketball: a love story is 61 20-minute episodes.
I have seen ones about:
* the ABA. The first slam dunk contest was amusing...the guys didn't know what to do. 7'2" Artis Gilmore (who has a lot of history with the state of Kentucky) was first. He just picked up a ball with each hand and walked to the basketball and dunked them both.
* Howard Garfinkel's 5* camps (featuring Hubie Brown, Cal, and Pitino
* one episode featured Pitino and Billy Donovan at Providence
* Birth of the Bruins
Anyway, tonight (Sunday) at 10 EDT is episode 3. ESPN 2.
Part of it will be about Coach Rupp. I doubt it will be good. I saw a review which mentioned that Rupp didn't get a black recruit until 1970.
