Plot: Follows the 1983 dream season of North Carolina State basketball team - who weren't even supposed to make it the NCAA tournament, let alone with the championship. A lot of credit goes to Coach Jim Valvano who, just 10 years after the famed run, would die of cancer. -- Chris Kavan

One of my favorite 30 for 30 entries - not only because the 1983 North Carolina State basketball team made a more than Cinderella run - but because of the inclusion of the story of Jim Valvano, the coach who lived through this amazing season all while dealing with a terminal case of cancer. Both stories are inspirational, yet this documentary is so much fun - former players looking back on such a monumental period coupled with the classic footage. If you want inspiration - look for further.
