In this sentimental comedy, the coach of the struggling Phoenix Suns basketball team finds his already heavy load increased when his wife decides to adopt three more children, a Vietnamese, a black and a Native American.

Things get even worse when he is fired. Fortunately, his trials are only temporary.
