1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,419
Alright, let's go. Here we go.
2
00:00:05,505 --> 00:00:07,132
How do I feel...
3
00:00:07,215 --> 00:00:10,552
about Magic Johnson comin' back?
4
00:00:10,635 --> 00:00:12,387
Hm. Young Buck.
5
00:00:12,470 --> 00:00:13,346
Me?
6
00:00:13,763 --> 00:00:15,849
Best record in the league
since he been gone.
7
00:00:15,932 --> 00:00:17,308
I'm just here to support Paul.
8
00:00:17,392 --> 00:00:19,185
Do I think he'll impact team chemistry?
9
00:00:19,269 --> 00:00:20,729
Do I look fuckin' nervous?
10
00:00:20,812 --> 00:00:22,981
It's basketball, motherfucker!
It ain't rocket science!
11
00:00:23,064 --> 00:00:24,733
-Can't wait.
-Chemistry, my fuckin' ass.
12
00:00:25,817 --> 00:00:26,818
Young Buck.
13
00:00:26,901 --> 00:00:28,570
You bet he's gonna impact chemistry.
14
00:00:29,654 --> 00:00:30,947
I mean, in a good way.
15
00:00:31,031 --> 00:00:33,199
You ask the guys, they're thrilled.
16
00:00:35,410 --> 00:00:36,745
What I say?
17
00:00:37,203 --> 00:00:39,205
I say the Magic back, baby.
18
00:00:51,384 --> 00:00:52,510
There it is
19
00:00:55,180 --> 00:00:56,931
Yeah, ah, uh
20
00:00:57,015 --> 00:00:57,891
Yeah
21
00:00:58,099 --> 00:00:58,975
Okay
22
00:01:00,018 --> 00:01:01,311
Check it out
23
00:01:01,394 --> 00:01:03,480
Death to the pigs is my basic statement
24
00:01:03,563 --> 00:01:05,857
I spit street stories
'til I taste the pavement
25
00:01:05,940 --> 00:01:08,234
Tryin' to stay out the pen
where we face enslavement
26
00:01:08,318 --> 00:01:10,362
Had a foolproof hustle
'til they traced the payments
27
00:01:10,445 --> 00:01:12,447
I was grippin' my palm
around some shitty rum
28
00:01:12,530 --> 00:01:14,866
Tryin' to find psalm number 151
29
00:01:14,949 --> 00:01:17,035
To forget what I'm owed,
as I clutch the commode
30
00:01:17,118 --> 00:01:19,579
I read "Put down the bottle
and come get the gun"
31
00:01:19,662 --> 00:01:22,332
Let's get off the chain like
Kunta Kinte with a MAC-10
32
00:01:22,414 --> 00:01:24,250
They want us gone
like a dollar in a crack den
33
00:01:24,334 --> 00:01:26,461
Steadily subtractin' seeds and stems
34
00:01:26,544 --> 00:01:28,045
Mind cloudy through the wheeze and phlegm
35
00:01:28,129 --> 00:01:30,340
Numbin' my brain off of that
and the Jesus hymns
36
00:01:30,423 --> 00:01:32,801
If we waiting for the time
to fight, these is thems
37
00:01:32,884 --> 00:01:34,803
Tellin' us to relax while they ease it in
38
00:01:34,886 --> 00:01:36,012
We gettin greased again
39
00:01:36,096 --> 00:01:37,097
The truth I write is so cold
40
00:01:37,180 --> 00:01:38,598
It'd freeze my pen
41
00:01:38,682 --> 00:01:40,183
I'm Boots Riley
it's a pleasure to meet you
42
00:01:40,265 --> 00:01:42,435
Never let they punk ass ever defeat you
43
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:44,688
They got us on the corner
wearin' pleather and see-thru
44
00:01:44,771 --> 00:01:46,981
All y'all's gold mines,
they wanna deplete you
45
00:01:47,065 --> 00:01:49,651
I ain't just finna rap on the track,
I finna clap on 'em back
46
00:01:49,734 --> 00:01:51,194
And it's been stackin' to that
47
00:01:51,277 --> 00:01:53,571
500 years before Iceberg
ever leaned back in the 'lac
48
00:01:53,655 --> 00:01:55,448
Before they told Rosa "Black in the back"
49
00:01:55,532 --> 00:01:58,243
Before the CIA told Ricky Ross
to put crack in a sack
50
00:01:58,326 --> 00:02:00,245
And Gil Scott traded rappin' for smack
51
00:02:00,328 --> 00:02:02,038
This beat alone should
get platinum plaques
52
00:02:02,122 --> 00:02:04,207
I'd rather see a million
of us ecstatic to scrap
53
00:02:04,290 --> 00:02:06,334
'Cause if we bappin' 'em back
we automatically stack
54
00:02:14,134 --> 00:02:16,261
Alright, alright, let's go!
55
00:02:16,344 --> 00:02:17,971
Come on, top him, top him!
56
00:02:18,054 --> 00:02:19,514
Team up, Cap, team up!
57
00:02:19,597 --> 00:02:21,474
Come on, Cap! Oh!
58
00:02:21,558 --> 00:02:23,184
Hit me on the run! Hit me on the run!
59
00:02:26,021 --> 00:02:29,441
Ah, shit! Goddamn, man!
60
00:02:29,899 --> 00:02:32,110
-Motherfucker, what you doing?
-Going for the inbound!
61
00:02:32,192 --> 00:02:33,820
-What it look like?
-Earvin!
62
00:02:33,903 --> 00:02:37,699
Earvin, let Norm take those in for now
while you get a feel for the new system.
63
00:02:39,075 --> 00:02:40,994
Yeah, aight. Cool.
64
00:02:43,454 --> 00:02:45,081
Earvin seem a little out of kilter?
65
00:02:46,499 --> 00:02:49,168
Paul made some adjustments to the offense.
66
00:02:49,252 --> 00:02:50,754
He'll get used to it.
67
00:02:54,424 --> 00:02:55,966
Is that knee alright?
68
00:02:58,261 --> 00:02:59,637
I'll keep an eye on it.
69
00:03:03,933 --> 00:03:05,518
Let's go!
70
00:03:25,747 --> 00:03:26,873
You see this shit?
71
00:03:26,956 --> 00:03:28,083
What's up, Chones?
72
00:03:28,166 --> 00:03:29,542
Man, fuck Boston.
That's one game, man.
73
00:03:29,626 --> 00:03:31,628
We four back on Phoenix
and we catchin' up.
74
00:03:31,711 --> 00:03:35,465
Yeah, "if." That big nigga running into me
like we bumper cars.
75
00:03:35,548 --> 00:03:37,884
Keep on like this,
I'ma be fucked up worse than him.
76
00:03:37,966 --> 00:03:39,886
Well, somebody should have
hipped him to what doin'
77
00:03:39,969 --> 00:03:41,513
before they let him on the floor.
78
00:03:41,596 --> 00:03:43,890
He'll figure it out.
Let's just stay positive.
79
00:03:43,973 --> 00:03:45,392
Fuck you.
80
00:03:45,475 --> 00:03:47,060
Looking like the bottom of a shoe, nigga.
81
00:03:47,143 --> 00:03:48,561
What you talkin' about?
82
00:03:50,355 --> 00:03:51,856
What y'all laughing about?
83
00:03:52,524 --> 00:03:54,734
-Oh, nothin', man.
-Fucking Coop.
84
00:03:54,817 --> 00:03:57,362
Oh, yeah. You shoulda seen his
ass bowling the other night.
85
00:03:57,445 --> 00:03:59,364
He's so good 'cause his ass
the same color as the ball.
86
00:03:59,447 --> 00:04:01,324
They might be cousins.
87
00:04:03,451 --> 00:04:05,161
Maybe if you'd kept
yours out of the gutter,
88
00:04:05,245 --> 00:04:06,496
you'd still have money in your pocket.
89
00:04:06,579 --> 00:04:09,416
-Ooh!
-Tell him, Cap!
90
00:04:10,291 --> 00:04:12,919
Paul, look, it's a lot to ask.
91
00:04:13,003 --> 00:04:16,005
He's comin' off an injury,
learnin' a new system.
92
00:04:16,089 --> 00:04:17,382
Okay, you know what, Pat?
93
00:04:17,464 --> 00:04:18,925
All the other guys picked it up just fine.
94
00:04:19,009 --> 00:04:21,261
Yeah, well, they had time. He doesn't.
95
00:04:21,344 --> 00:04:22,804
We're a month out from the playoffs.
96
00:04:22,887 --> 00:04:25,849
We need Magic integrated
back into the offense, Paul.
97
00:04:25,932 --> 00:04:27,684
We can bring The System back next year.
98
00:04:30,562 --> 00:04:32,272
Put down your beers and lend me your ears.
99
00:04:32,355 --> 00:04:35,442
I got your title right here in the bag.
100
00:04:35,525 --> 00:04:38,820
Let's see the Celtics match up with him.
101
00:04:38,903 --> 00:04:40,739
What are we talking about here?
102
00:04:40,822 --> 00:04:43,491
Talking about David Thompson!
David fucking Thompson!
103
00:04:43,575 --> 00:04:46,202
The Skywalker! I'm talking about
a 50-inch fucking vertical.
104
00:04:46,286 --> 00:04:47,787
Body soaring through
the air like an eagle!
105
00:04:47,871 --> 00:04:48,955
Seventy-three points in one game.
106
00:04:49,039 --> 00:04:50,790
This team breezin'
through the fuckin' finals
107
00:04:50,874 --> 00:04:52,334
for the next five years!
108
00:04:52,417 --> 00:04:55,086
-Five years! Five years! Huh?
-Hold on, hold on, hold on.
109
00:04:55,170 --> 00:04:57,797
-He's available?
- Think I'm fuckin' stupid, Pat?
110
00:04:57,881 --> 00:05:00,175
Hell, yes.
I had Elgin dig around in Denver
111
00:05:00,258 --> 00:05:01,760
and goddamn it, he came up with a nugget.
112
00:05:01,843 --> 00:05:04,346
Turns out, he's itching to bust outta that
mile-high bird cage
113
00:05:04,429 --> 00:05:06,014
and soar to sunny skies.
114
00:05:07,182 --> 00:05:08,767
-This guy could be a third star.
-Yeah!
115
00:05:08,850 --> 00:05:12,020
This guy, he's someone
who can make a shot in the crunch.
116
00:05:12,103 --> 00:05:13,772
-He's a hell of an asset.
-Tell him, Pat!
117
00:05:13,855 --> 00:05:15,732
-He's a--
-He's a fuckin' all-star!
118
00:05:15,815 --> 00:05:17,442
-He's an all-star.
-What would it take?
119
00:05:17,525 --> 00:05:18,943
That's the best part:
120
00:05:19,027 --> 00:05:20,528
-Nixon.
-Get outta here.
121
00:05:20,612 --> 00:05:22,155
-No! Yeah!
-Get outta here is right.
122
00:05:22,238 --> 00:05:24,282
-We're not trading Norm.
-Huh?
123
00:05:25,283 --> 00:05:27,160
We're not trading Norm!
He's been lights out.
124
00:05:27,243 --> 00:05:29,204
He is having an all-star season.
125
00:05:29,287 --> 00:05:30,872
He's run the show for us with Magic out.
126
00:05:30,955 --> 00:05:33,166
Well, ding-fucking-dong, dude.
127
00:05:33,249 --> 00:05:35,251
Magic out?
Magic's coming back,
128
00:05:35,335 --> 00:05:38,004
and those two are gonna go
straight back to fightin' for the ball.
129
00:05:38,088 --> 00:05:41,966
Or! Or we cash him in!
Ship him out while his stock is high!
130
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:44,302
Huh? Pat, come here, do me a favor
131
00:05:44,386 --> 00:05:46,888
and turn these lights on. Yeah.
132
00:05:46,971 --> 00:05:48,973
Come on. Just flick that switch.
133
00:05:50,767 --> 00:05:52,602
-He's not wrong.
-No!
134
00:05:52,686 --> 00:05:56,022
-Norm is top-notch.
-Yeah. Okay. Sometimes.
135
00:05:56,106 --> 00:05:58,817
But, hey, you know, Thompson, I mean,
136
00:05:58,900 --> 00:06:00,819
-this guy's world-class.
-World-class!
137
00:06:00,902 --> 00:06:02,779
The season's on the line.
We're gonna want another guy
138
00:06:02,862 --> 00:06:04,447
like that to take the final shot.
139
00:06:04,531 --> 00:06:07,283
-Damn fuckin' straight.
-I'll look into it.
140
00:06:08,993 --> 00:06:10,578
You'll look--
141
00:06:14,416 --> 00:06:15,417
Look--
142
00:06:15,500 --> 00:06:16,835
That's what this is.
143
00:06:16,918 --> 00:06:19,796
We looked into it.
We scouted him, top to tail.
144
00:06:19,879 --> 00:06:21,256
-He's good to go.
-That's nice.
145
00:06:21,339 --> 00:06:24,050
I have a group of guys
who have gelled already.
146
00:06:24,134 --> 00:06:27,262
So, I throw somebody new in
and I could spoil the broth.
147
00:06:27,345 --> 00:06:31,057
I'm not gonna do that
without seeing for myself.
148
00:06:31,141 --> 00:06:32,225
Alright?
149
00:06:33,643 --> 00:06:35,937
But I do appreciate the legwork, Jerry.
150
00:06:39,149 --> 00:06:41,401
Trade deadline is two weeks.
151
00:06:41,484 --> 00:06:43,737
Okay. From today? Great.
152
00:06:43,820 --> 00:06:45,780
I'll get you an answer.
153
00:06:46,781 --> 00:06:48,283
Thanks, Jerry.
154
00:07:00,295 --> 00:07:01,671
Oh, man. Pat!
155
00:07:04,424 --> 00:07:06,801
Next time you have an opinion,
156
00:07:06,885 --> 00:07:09,179
just run it by me first.
157
00:07:10,055 --> 00:07:12,098
Alright? That's not so hard.
158
00:07:14,601 --> 00:07:15,810
Yes, sir.
159
00:07:22,275 --> 00:07:23,610
Pat.
160
00:07:23,693 --> 00:07:24,569
What the fuck is going on?
161
00:07:24,652 --> 00:07:25,945
-Hey.
-Huh?
162
00:07:26,029 --> 00:07:27,530
-Hey, you can't come in like that...
-Hey what?
163
00:07:27,614 --> 00:07:29,449
It's four in the afternoon.
164
00:07:29,532 --> 00:07:30,742
It's my fault.
165
00:07:30,825 --> 00:07:32,994
Whatever they do, it's copacetic
166
00:07:33,078 --> 00:07:35,747
as long as I don't hurt
their fuckin' feelings.
167
00:07:35,830 --> 00:07:37,332
Well, you know,
168
00:07:37,415 --> 00:07:39,334
Jeanie's team is on
the hunt to win a title.
169
00:07:39,876 --> 00:07:40,877
Yeah.
170
00:07:43,171 --> 00:07:46,007
You know, I saw her
in my dreams again last night.
171
00:07:46,091 --> 00:07:47,509
Jeanie?
172
00:07:47,592 --> 00:07:50,428
-No. Honey.
-Ah, yes.
173
00:07:51,054 --> 00:07:53,056
-The girl.
-Yeah, the girl.
174
00:07:53,848 --> 00:07:56,851
And let me tell you, it was a good one.
175
00:07:56,935 --> 00:07:59,437
You know what?
Spare me the lurid details, please.
176
00:08:01,064 --> 00:08:02,732
It wasn't lurid at all.
177
00:08:03,733 --> 00:08:05,235
It wasn't sex.
178
00:08:06,569 --> 00:08:08,446
It was better.
179
00:08:08,530 --> 00:08:11,366
We were running on the beach
in Santa Monica,
180
00:08:11,449 --> 00:08:13,993
just like when I was a kid,
like when my ma and I
181
00:08:14,077 --> 00:08:15,995
first got out here
182
00:08:16,079 --> 00:08:17,997
and I could just run
on that beach for hours
183
00:08:18,081 --> 00:08:19,582
and hours and hours.
184
00:08:21,668 --> 00:08:25,171
-Before these.
-Yeah. Before everything.
185
00:08:27,090 --> 00:08:29,592
I haven't felt that way in a long time.
186
00:08:30,719 --> 00:08:32,511
There we were.
187
00:08:32,595 --> 00:08:34,222
Me and Honey.
188
00:08:34,304 --> 00:08:36,808
Just running and laughing and
189
00:08:38,768 --> 00:08:39,894
so free.
190
00:08:40,770 --> 00:08:43,565
-It was beautiful.
-Uh-oh.
191
00:08:44,274 --> 00:08:45,275
What?
192
00:08:46,317 --> 00:08:48,737
Dreams. Our dreams.
193
00:08:49,904 --> 00:08:51,906
I dreamt I was an astronaut one night.
194
00:08:52,615 --> 00:08:54,909
I don't know, Claire. I'm a guy.
195
00:08:54,993 --> 00:08:56,453
When it comes to life, I go for my gut,
196
00:08:56,536 --> 00:08:58,413
and I have a feeling about this one.
197
00:08:58,496 --> 00:09:01,666
Yeah. You're feeling like
running right back into her pants.
198
00:09:02,792 --> 00:09:04,085
Sorry. Her arms.
199
00:09:05,795 --> 00:09:08,590
Well, have you considered the fact
that she might have moved on?
200
00:09:11,092 --> 00:09:13,261
Only one way to find out, I suppose.
201
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,857
-Magic, how's that knee feeling?
-Fine.
202
00:09:25,940 --> 00:09:27,525
-Hope to beat Larry in the finals?
-Sure.
203
00:09:27,609 --> 00:09:29,986
-Magic, how's it feel to be back?
-Great.
204
00:09:30,070 --> 00:09:32,030
Enjoying all this big brouhaha out here?
205
00:09:32,113 --> 00:09:33,239
Yeah, real exciting.
206
00:09:33,323 --> 00:09:35,033
-How's team chemistry?
-Like I never left.
207
00:09:35,116 --> 00:09:36,951
Do you think the Lakers
can win another title?
208
00:09:37,035 --> 00:09:39,287
-Gonna try.
-Is your recovery progressing smoothly?
209
00:09:39,371 --> 00:09:41,623
-You bet.
-Any advice for your opponents?
210
00:09:41,706 --> 00:09:42,790
Better watch out.
211
00:09:44,959 --> 00:09:47,087
So, you're not upset you lost
a starting spot?
212
00:09:47,170 --> 00:09:49,297
Yeah, what do you think
about Norm at number one?
213
00:09:49,381 --> 00:09:52,592
Nah, that's how it should be.
Just for now though.
214
00:09:52,676 --> 00:09:55,136
What kind of adjustments will
your teammates have to make?
215
00:09:55,220 --> 00:09:57,097
Ain't none. Everybody know Magic.
216
00:09:57,180 --> 00:09:58,264
Magic, look into the camera!
217
00:09:58,348 --> 00:09:59,933
Magic, smile.
218
00:10:00,016 --> 00:10:03,103
Did you get a "get well card"
from Larry Bird?
219
00:10:04,562 --> 00:10:06,314
Yeah. Sent me a chocolate leprechaun.
220
00:10:08,316 --> 00:10:10,610
Cap! Cap!
What do you think of the big return?
221
00:10:10,694 --> 00:10:11,778
I think you're blocking my locker.
222
00:10:12,237 --> 00:10:15,657
Magic! Magic! Magic!
223
00:10:15,740 --> 00:10:17,367
Can the fans expect a game six?
224
00:10:17,450 --> 00:10:19,035
Aight, that's enough!
225
00:10:19,119 --> 00:10:22,080
That's all that we got.
Rap with y'all after the game, aight?
226
00:10:22,163 --> 00:10:23,957
Y'all get on up outta here.
227
00:10:24,624 --> 00:10:26,418
Let me and my teammates get ready.
228
00:10:33,341 --> 00:10:34,926
Hey! Earvin!
229
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,303
You got a minute?
230
00:10:37,387 --> 00:10:39,222
Just trying to get ready.
231
00:10:40,348 --> 00:10:42,225
Okay, perfect.
This will just take a minute.
232
00:10:42,308 --> 00:10:43,560
Because we were talking,
233
00:10:43,643 --> 00:10:46,438
and we thought you should wear this.
234
00:10:48,940 --> 00:10:50,734
Put that shit away.
235
00:10:50,817 --> 00:10:52,902
Oh, no. I got enough for everybody.
236
00:10:52,986 --> 00:10:55,697
Toss it. Burn it if you got to.
I don't give a fuck.
237
00:10:55,780 --> 00:10:57,866
I don't wanna see it on nobody.
238
00:10:57,949 --> 00:10:59,325
You dig?
239
00:11:00,785 --> 00:11:02,495
Um, yeah.
240
00:11:02,579 --> 00:11:05,623
Yeah. Yeah, for sure. Copy that.
241
00:11:21,598 --> 00:11:24,184
And, folks, this arena is buzzing.
242
00:11:24,267 --> 00:11:27,687
After 45 games, 101 long days,
243
00:11:27,771 --> 00:11:31,691
it's finally official,
and the City of Angels swoons.
244
00:11:31,775 --> 00:11:34,277
-The Magic is back.
-Earvin!
245
00:11:35,236 --> 00:11:37,489
Hey! How you feeling?
246
00:11:37,572 --> 00:11:40,533
-All good! Yeah!
-All good? Okay.
247
00:11:40,617 --> 00:11:43,870
There's a word the Latins use. Suave.
248
00:11:43,953 --> 00:11:45,955
It means "easy."
249
00:11:46,039 --> 00:11:47,832
That's how I want you
taking it tonight, alright?
250
00:11:47,915 --> 00:11:50,293
No pressure. Understand?
251
00:11:50,377 --> 00:11:52,962
Yeah! Yeah! Suave!
252
00:11:53,046 --> 00:11:54,422
Suave.
253
00:11:58,927 --> 00:12:01,096
And now making his long-awaited
254
00:12:01,179 --> 00:12:03,181
fabulous Forum return,
255
00:12:03,264 --> 00:12:06,226
let's give him a grand old
Hollywood welcome.
256
00:12:06,309 --> 00:12:09,354
Get on your feet for your one and only,
257
00:12:09,437 --> 00:12:11,231
Earvin "Magic" Johnson!
258
00:12:11,314 --> 00:12:16,528
Magic! Magic! Magic! Magic! Magic!
259
00:12:36,756 --> 00:12:41,094
Magic! Magic! Magic! Magic! Magic!
260
00:12:44,014 --> 00:12:46,099
Yeah!
261
00:12:50,020 --> 00:12:51,062
Woo!
262
00:12:51,146 --> 00:12:54,065
Magic! Magic! Magic!
263
00:12:55,191 --> 00:12:57,861
You got it! You got it! Your shot!
264
00:12:59,029 --> 00:13:00,447
Lakers up convincingly
265
00:13:00,530 --> 00:13:02,282
with this first quarter
ticking away, but, Keith,
266
00:13:02,365 --> 00:13:05,702
the man this crowd has come to see
still has not touched the basketball.
267
00:13:05,785 --> 00:13:08,621
And when will Coach Westhead
pull the rabbit out of his hat, Chick?
268
00:13:08,705 --> 00:13:10,790
We want Magic!
269
00:13:10,874 --> 00:13:15,337
We want Magic! We want Magic!
We want Magic!
270
00:13:15,420 --> 00:13:17,297
You think we're gonna have
to give these people refunds
271
00:13:17,380 --> 00:13:18,798
if he never plays a game?
272
00:13:18,882 --> 00:13:20,550
I think we'll have a fucking riot.
273
00:13:20,633 --> 00:13:21,968
We want Magic!
274
00:13:22,052 --> 00:13:24,971
We want Magic! We want Magic!
275
00:13:30,643 --> 00:13:32,479
You made your point, Paul.
276
00:13:35,148 --> 00:13:36,316
Earvin!
277
00:13:36,941 --> 00:13:38,401
-Get in for Norm.
-And, my friends,
278
00:13:38,485 --> 00:13:40,779
the fans are finally
getting what they came for.
279
00:13:40,862 --> 00:13:43,323
Looks like Coach Westhead is finally
pulling a rabbit out of his hat.
280
00:13:43,406 --> 00:13:45,700
Magic Johnson is coming into the game.
281
00:13:45,784 --> 00:13:47,285
Earvin!
282
00:13:47,869 --> 00:13:48,870
Suave.
283
00:13:50,372 --> 00:13:51,498
Suave.
284
00:13:57,462 --> 00:14:00,173
Bullshit, Riles.
You know that's bullshit, right?
285
00:14:01,716 --> 00:14:04,094
It's top of the key.
He's calling for it.
286
00:14:04,177 --> 00:14:06,179
Magic with the ball.
Makes his move past Newlin.
287
00:14:06,262 --> 00:14:08,765
-No-look pass.
-Motherfucker!
288
00:14:08,848 --> 00:14:11,226
Right into the hands of Maurice Lucas
for the turnover.
289
00:14:11,810 --> 00:14:13,103
And the bucket.
290
00:14:13,186 --> 00:14:16,439
And that was not exactly what
this Forum crowd had in mind.
291
00:14:16,523 --> 00:14:17,774
Got y'all's wish.
292
00:14:19,901 --> 00:14:21,486
Lotta pressure, you know?
293
00:14:25,573 --> 00:14:27,450
Paul's tinkering with the offense.
294
00:14:27,534 --> 00:14:29,994
-He'll get used to it.
-In basketball, the Lakers,
295
00:14:30,078 --> 00:14:32,247
who had found their winning ways,
have seen their shadow.
296
00:14:33,581 --> 00:14:36,209
Asked whether all the fanfare
surrounding Magic Johnson was to blame,
297
00:14:36,292 --> 00:14:39,170
Norm Nixon,
who was benched in favor of his cohort,
298
00:14:39,254 --> 00:14:40,797
made a point to say that neither he
299
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,924
nor any of the others
resented the publicity.
300
00:14:43,008 --> 00:14:44,551
Not at all.
301
00:14:44,634 --> 00:14:46,720
If anything, we're happy
to see it go to somebody
302
00:14:46,803 --> 00:14:48,138
who deserves it.
303
00:14:48,221 --> 00:14:49,723
Okay, Norman. If you say so.
304
00:14:49,806 --> 00:14:51,349
But if Nixon's comments were typical
305
00:14:51,433 --> 00:14:53,184
of what the Lakers
were saying to the press,
306
00:14:53,268 --> 00:14:55,478
Jim Chones spoke directly from the heart.
307
00:14:55,562 --> 00:14:57,772
I thought it was bull!
308
00:14:57,856 --> 00:15:00,567
-A circus!
-And a lousy one at that.
309
00:15:00,650 --> 00:15:03,069
With the touted Magic Man
taking a spill off a trapeze,
310
00:15:03,153 --> 00:15:05,780
racking up as many turnovers as baskets.
311
00:15:05,864 --> 00:15:07,866
Praying for that knee to hold.
312
00:15:08,616 --> 00:15:09,868
Wouldn't wanna miss you in the finals.
313
00:15:14,039 --> 00:15:16,041
Here, I thought I'd trash the place alone.
314
00:15:17,500 --> 00:15:19,627
You want an assist?
315
00:15:19,711 --> 00:15:22,213
Long as it ain't another turnover.
316
00:15:22,297 --> 00:15:24,049
They stopped countin' after the game.
317
00:15:24,132 --> 00:15:26,593
You promise?
318
00:15:27,052 --> 00:15:28,553
How's it feelin'?
319
00:15:30,805 --> 00:15:32,682
Just a little sore is all.
320
00:15:32,766 --> 00:15:36,186
That's why you waited till everybody split
to freeze your nuts off.
321
00:15:38,271 --> 00:15:40,273
From the looks of it out there, I figure
322
00:15:41,149 --> 00:15:42,859
where we at, 50%?
323
00:15:44,152 --> 00:15:45,612
-Me?
-Mm.
324
00:15:45,695 --> 00:15:46,821
Nah!
325
00:15:46,905 --> 00:15:48,948
Ninety, easy.
326
00:15:50,950 --> 00:15:53,286
Aight, more like 80.
327
00:15:54,329 --> 00:15:57,290
-But we good!
-So, 60. Tops.
328
00:15:59,292 --> 00:16:01,461
Come on, Riles. Buss find out--
329
00:16:01,544 --> 00:16:05,090
To hell with Buss. Coach gets wind,
he's gonna keep you sittin'.
330
00:16:05,173 --> 00:16:07,676
You need that run
to get in shape for playoffs.
331
00:16:08,468 --> 00:16:09,469
Right?
332
00:16:10,762 --> 00:16:12,013
Am I right?
333
00:16:12,097 --> 00:16:13,682
Hey, I wore the jersey, too, remember?
334
00:16:18,937 --> 00:16:20,897
Ain't that it hurt.
335
00:16:20,980 --> 00:16:22,315
Just somethin'...
336
00:16:22,399 --> 00:16:24,150
Somethin' ain't right.
337
00:16:24,234 --> 00:16:25,777
Like part of me out there,
338
00:16:25,860 --> 00:16:27,278
part of me ain't.
339
00:16:27,362 --> 00:16:30,115
Like, instead of me playin',
340
00:16:30,198 --> 00:16:32,158
me being me, Magic,
341
00:16:32,242 --> 00:16:35,203
I'm just... I'm just...
342
00:16:36,079 --> 00:16:38,581
You can't act like Magic.
You gotta be Magic.
343
00:16:39,499 --> 00:16:42,002
You can't be out there thinkin'
it's gonna happen again.
344
00:16:43,420 --> 00:16:45,672
-Yeah. Yeah.
-Yeah.
345
00:16:47,340 --> 00:16:49,718
How I stop thinkin' that?
346
00:16:50,885 --> 00:16:52,387
That's simple.
347
00:16:53,888 --> 00:16:55,390
Stop thinkin'.
348
00:17:08,361 --> 00:17:10,320
Pop it! Snap it back!
349
00:17:11,990 --> 00:17:14,784
No time to think!
Pass the break! Let's go!
350
00:17:14,867 --> 00:17:16,453
No time to think. There you go.
351
00:17:16,536 --> 00:17:18,163
Let's go! Stop thinking! Let's go!
352
00:17:18,246 --> 00:17:19,664
Don't think about it. Let's go. Let's go.
353
00:17:19,748 --> 00:17:20,790
Gonna be a little bitch! Come on.
354
00:17:20,874 --> 00:17:21,875
Push it. Come on.
355
00:17:21,958 --> 00:17:25,002
Come on. Stop thinking!
Let's go! Let's go!
356
00:17:25,086 --> 00:17:26,296
Go, go, foul! Come on!
357
00:17:26,378 --> 00:17:28,631
Quit pussyfooting, you little gimp!
Come on!
358
00:17:28,715 --> 00:17:31,676
Cut harder! Use your left! Come on, Nancy.
359
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,178
Come on, man!
360
00:17:33,261 --> 00:17:34,763
That's right!
361
00:17:34,846 --> 00:17:37,098
Return to the scene
of the fuckin' crime, man.
362
00:17:37,182 --> 00:17:38,308
Face it!
363
00:17:38,391 --> 00:17:40,226
Yeah. Let's go.
364
00:17:43,438 --> 00:17:46,274
-You in pain?
-Hell no.
365
00:17:46,358 --> 00:17:48,234
What are we stopping for?
366
00:17:48,318 --> 00:17:50,487
You gotta do what the instructor says.
367
00:17:50,570 --> 00:17:52,781
She taught me that years ago.
368
00:17:52,864 --> 00:17:54,157
When I was trying to learn tennis.
369
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,117
She'd say,
"Just do what the instructor says."
370
00:17:56,201 --> 00:17:59,162
Dr. Kerlan said that
the range of motion test was good.
371
00:17:59,245 --> 00:18:01,956
I need you back in action
for the title series, okay?
372
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:03,416
Yeah, but I don't wanna risk it.
373
00:18:03,500 --> 00:18:05,210
I gotta save myself for Wimbledon.
374
00:18:05,293 --> 00:18:06,753
Yeah, but that's not till June.
375
00:18:06,836 --> 00:18:08,963
What about our tennis team?
376
00:18:09,047 --> 00:18:12,550
Well, Anna has a career to worry about.
377
00:18:12,634 --> 00:18:14,094
She could get a top-10 seed this year.
378
00:18:14,177 --> 00:18:16,096
Isn't that right, Pookie?
379
00:18:16,179 --> 00:18:18,723
-He's my biggest fan.
-Yes, I am.
380
00:18:21,101 --> 00:18:22,852
Hey, can I talk to you
for a second over here?
381
00:18:22,936 --> 00:18:23,937
Sure.
382
00:18:25,146 --> 00:18:27,065
Alright, you are already
screwing one of my players.
383
00:18:27,148 --> 00:18:28,441
Don't screw me, too.
384
00:18:28,525 --> 00:18:30,402
Okay, what does our romance
have to do with you?
385
00:18:30,485 --> 00:18:32,570
You're encouraging her to sit out
the entire Strings season.
386
00:18:32,654 --> 00:18:34,114
No, I'm looking out for her best interest.
387
00:18:34,197 --> 00:18:36,199
Yeah, but what about ours?
388
00:18:36,282 --> 00:18:38,243
She is our asset, Johnny. Okay?
389
00:18:38,326 --> 00:18:40,662
Can you think about the business
before you think about your penis?
390
00:18:40,745 --> 00:18:42,247
You know what, you're just like him.
391
00:18:42,330 --> 00:18:43,665
Work, work, work, work.
392
00:18:43,748 --> 00:18:45,542
And how many of those
have you been going through?
393
00:18:45,625 --> 00:18:48,169
-You're gonna get an ulcer.
-Yeah, I'm gonna name it after you.
394
00:18:49,421 --> 00:18:51,506
Look, Jean, I get it, okay?
395
00:18:51,589 --> 00:18:53,341
Working our asses off to make him happy.
396
00:18:53,425 --> 00:18:55,510
Except, you know what?
He never will be.
397
00:18:55,593 --> 00:18:57,637
I'm realizing we have
to do that on our own.
398
00:18:57,721 --> 00:18:59,097
Anna is the woman I love
399
00:18:59,180 --> 00:19:01,307
and if you think I'm gonna
ask her to risk her future,
400
00:19:01,391 --> 00:19:04,185
so that you can win a trophy in a league
that nobody cares about.
401
00:19:05,311 --> 00:19:06,855
Not a chance.
402
00:19:07,897 --> 00:19:09,065
Okay.
403
00:19:09,149 --> 00:19:10,734
Alright, everybody!
404
00:19:10,817 --> 00:19:12,694
Gather 'round!
405
00:19:12,777 --> 00:19:14,404
Gather 'round, everybody!
406
00:19:14,487 --> 00:19:16,156
Alright, we all here?
407
00:19:16,614 --> 00:19:18,116
Everyone got a drink?
408
00:19:18,908 --> 00:19:20,410
Alright, so
409
00:19:21,327 --> 00:19:22,454
well, you know why you're here.
410
00:19:22,537 --> 00:19:25,248
We're here to remember Jessie Buss.
411
00:19:25,331 --> 00:19:27,334
A mother. A grandmother.
412
00:19:28,335 --> 00:19:30,545
A friend. A bridge partner.
413
00:19:32,672 --> 00:19:34,632
But I'll keep it short
because we wanna get
414
00:19:34,716 --> 00:19:38,428
to the most important part of the party,
for my mom anyway.
415
00:19:38,511 --> 00:19:40,597
So, anyway, here we go.
416
00:19:42,932 --> 00:19:44,434
Well, old gal.
417
00:19:45,894 --> 00:19:47,687
It's been a year
418
00:19:49,856 --> 00:19:51,816
and we miss you like hell.
419
00:19:59,657 --> 00:20:01,659
But the Buss empire is taking off!
420
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,162
We got the kids on the team now,
421
00:20:04,996 --> 00:20:07,957
and here we are, in Pickfair,
422
00:20:08,041 --> 00:20:12,128
which is exactly where my mom
always dreamed we could be.
423
00:20:12,212 --> 00:20:15,340
So, thank you, Ma, for gettin' us here
424
00:20:15,965 --> 00:20:18,343
and please raise a glass to Jessie Buss!
425
00:20:18,426 --> 00:20:20,720
-Hear, hear!
-That's right, Jerry.
426
00:20:22,138 --> 00:20:25,016
Anyway, chuckwagon's open!
Knock yourselves out!
427
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:26,685
Get yourselves another drink, you know,
428
00:20:26,768 --> 00:20:29,479
and just enjoy yourselves like she would.
429
00:20:38,446 --> 00:20:40,031
Okay. Why don't you go inside?
430
00:20:40,115 --> 00:20:42,492
Everybody, you guys, these are beautiful.
Let's go in.
431
00:20:42,575 --> 00:20:45,537
Cool off. Get a snack. Go on.
432
00:20:45,620 --> 00:20:48,123
Don't run! Don't scream!
433
00:20:48,206 --> 00:20:50,041
Don't hit each other.
434
00:20:50,125 --> 00:20:53,712
Try not to put anything up your nose or...
435
00:20:53,795 --> 00:20:55,338
Like herdin' cats.
436
00:20:57,966 --> 00:20:59,300
You and kids, huh?
437
00:21:01,761 --> 00:21:03,346
Who knew, right?
438
00:21:07,100 --> 00:21:09,477
What the fuck
439
00:21:09,561 --> 00:21:11,813
are you doing here, Buss?
440
00:21:11,896 --> 00:21:13,773
I don't know. Just happened
to be in the neighborhood.
441
00:21:13,857 --> 00:21:15,400
Thought I'd say hi.
442
00:21:15,483 --> 00:21:17,027
It's a nice place.
443
00:21:17,652 --> 00:21:20,947
Well, it's no world championship,
but it's enough for me.
444
00:21:21,531 --> 00:21:23,742
Sometimes enough's enough.
445
00:21:24,117 --> 00:21:27,037
You gonna answer my question?
It's been 15 years.
446
00:21:27,120 --> 00:21:29,080
You just pop in
like the Hillside Strangler?
447
00:21:29,164 --> 00:21:30,790
I was just... I don't know.
448
00:21:30,874 --> 00:21:33,001
You were on my mind and
449
00:21:33,084 --> 00:21:35,295
I wanted to see how life
was goin' for you.
450
00:21:36,588 --> 00:21:39,591
-Huh.
-What? What's funny?
451
00:21:40,717 --> 00:21:42,510
You just wanted to see
the girl who used to blow you
452
00:21:42,594 --> 00:21:44,054
in your Mustang.
453
00:21:44,137 --> 00:21:46,931
Hey. There was a lot more
to her than that.
454
00:21:47,015 --> 00:21:50,894
Well, whoever she was, she's gone now.
455
00:21:50,977 --> 00:21:54,939
And I promise you,
the only one who misses her is you.
456
00:21:56,816 --> 00:21:58,985
Well, I must have been crazy
to let her go.
457
00:22:00,403 --> 00:22:03,740
She would have dragged you
down a dark road, baby.
458
00:22:03,823 --> 00:22:06,826
I don't know. Looks to me
like she pulled it all together.
459
00:22:07,494 --> 00:22:09,704
But you're right.
It has been way too long.
460
00:22:11,122 --> 00:22:12,707
Let's celebrate.
461
00:22:12,791 --> 00:22:14,584
What do you say?
Let's paint the town red.
462
00:22:15,460 --> 00:22:17,504
I'm tellin' you,
doors fly open for me now.
463
00:22:17,587 --> 00:22:19,798
It's not like when I was
that schlub fresh outta aerospace.
464
00:22:19,881 --> 00:22:22,008
I liked that schlub.
465
00:22:22,092 --> 00:22:24,010
Well, you'd love me now, then.
466
00:22:25,595 --> 00:22:27,097
I know you, Buss.
467
00:22:28,306 --> 00:22:32,060
But I'm not trying to go down bad-ex road.
468
00:22:32,143 --> 00:22:33,603
I'm really not.
469
00:22:33,687 --> 00:22:36,940
-I just got the last one outta my system.
-I get it.
470
00:22:37,023 --> 00:22:39,943
-Really?
-I just wanna buy you dinner.
471
00:22:40,026 --> 00:22:42,070
Catch up, talk old times.
472
00:22:43,738 --> 00:22:46,741
Honey. No Mustang. I promise.
473
00:22:48,034 --> 00:22:51,538
-You're smilin'.
-I could eat.
474
00:23:00,213 --> 00:23:02,215
Puttin' in some extra hours?
475
00:23:03,174 --> 00:23:05,719
You know, work hard, play hard, baby.
476
00:23:05,802 --> 00:23:07,554
So you're not worried about the rumors?
477
00:23:08,930 --> 00:23:10,098
Big trade.
478
00:23:10,974 --> 00:23:12,767
You for David Thompson.
479
00:23:14,811 --> 00:23:16,312
Now, where did you hear that?
480
00:23:17,147 --> 00:23:18,356
Going around.
481
00:23:19,524 --> 00:23:21,109
Makes sense if you think about it.
482
00:23:21,609 --> 00:23:23,653
Once Magic's back to starting point,
483
00:23:23,737 --> 00:23:25,822
Skywalker would make a neater fit
for shooting guard.
484
00:23:25,905 --> 00:23:29,451
Well, maybe that's because
I ain't no fuckin' shooting guard.
485
00:23:31,619 --> 00:23:35,290
Look, this team works best
when I'm at point.
486
00:23:35,749 --> 00:23:37,375
That ain't opinion. That's a fact.
487
00:23:37,459 --> 00:23:39,044
Y'all saw it, right?
488
00:23:39,127 --> 00:23:41,629
Last three months,
we was beatin' everybody.
489
00:23:42,505 --> 00:23:44,549
Now, they got they Magic back.
490
00:23:45,467 --> 00:23:47,177
And guess what?
491
00:23:47,886 --> 00:23:49,679
We lost all the chemistry.
492
00:23:51,056 --> 00:23:53,600
Fifteen years from now,
493
00:23:53,683 --> 00:23:56,186
everybody will have forgotten Magic.
494
00:23:56,936 --> 00:23:58,355
That's on the record.
495
00:23:59,856 --> 00:24:01,358
It's on the record.
496
00:24:01,441 --> 00:24:03,985
Well, hey, how about this? Fuck it.
497
00:24:04,986 --> 00:24:07,238
They gonna trade my Black ass anyway.
498
00:24:08,198 --> 00:24:09,616
Woo!
499
00:24:17,123 --> 00:24:18,875
Hey. Back already?
500
00:24:19,626 --> 00:24:21,336
I thought you were scoutin'
Denver another night.
501
00:24:23,338 --> 00:24:24,839
I saw enough.
502
00:24:26,591 --> 00:24:28,468
What's the matter?
Thompson let you down?
503
00:24:28,551 --> 00:24:30,095
Thompson was great. Yeah.
504
00:24:30,178 --> 00:24:31,930
Thompson was better than ever.
505
00:24:33,306 --> 00:24:34,849
That's not a bad thing, Paul.
506
00:24:35,767 --> 00:24:37,060
No.
507
00:24:37,602 --> 00:24:38,853
Look.
508
00:24:40,021 --> 00:24:42,065
Norm is a terrific guy.
509
00:24:43,066 --> 00:24:45,694
Right? But trades are a part of the life.
510
00:24:45,777 --> 00:24:47,112
He knows that.
511
00:24:47,195 --> 00:24:48,655
It's not that.
512
00:24:52,992 --> 00:24:54,661
We had a moment, Pat.
513
00:24:54,744 --> 00:24:57,163
You and me, we had these guys in sync.
514
00:24:57,247 --> 00:24:59,249
All of them. Even Kareem.
515
00:25:00,709 --> 00:25:03,628
And then Magic showed up, out of rhythm,
and we let that go.
516
00:25:03,712 --> 00:25:05,588
-Well, he had a--
-We adapted to him.
517
00:25:06,715 --> 00:25:07,966
And so now what?
518
00:25:08,049 --> 00:25:11,011
We're gonna add a new star to the mix?
519
00:25:11,094 --> 00:25:13,013
We're gonna add another ego?
520
00:25:13,096 --> 00:25:15,098
The best guys have 'em.
521
00:25:15,890 --> 00:25:18,143
It comes with the territory.
522
00:25:18,226 --> 00:25:20,186
Yeah, well, that's the problem
because next thing you know,
523
00:25:20,270 --> 00:25:21,938
this guy is coaching us.
524
00:25:22,689 --> 00:25:25,233
-Well, no.
-Skywalker is a dunker.
525
00:25:26,109 --> 00:25:27,944
High flying for the crowd.
526
00:25:28,028 --> 00:25:30,280
Suppose I tell him that
we don't need that on this team.
527
00:25:30,363 --> 00:25:32,407
That what we need is a mid-range guy.
528
00:25:33,700 --> 00:25:35,326
We need a spot-up shooter.
529
00:25:36,411 --> 00:25:39,039
You think he acquiesces to his coach?
530
00:25:39,122 --> 00:25:40,707
Fat chance, Pat.
531
00:25:40,790 --> 00:25:42,917
He acquiesces to his hubris.
532
00:25:43,001 --> 00:25:44,544
And you don't?
533
00:25:46,212 --> 00:25:49,841
I'm just sayin',
you haven't said a word to Thompson.
534
00:25:49,924 --> 00:25:51,926
You don't know his attitude from Adam.
535
00:25:55,180 --> 00:25:56,848
Am I right?
536
00:25:58,641 --> 00:26:00,352
You're in your head.
537
00:26:02,062 --> 00:26:03,563
'Cause Jack is.
538
00:26:10,111 --> 00:26:12,614
He's not the guy we gotta beat.
That's the problem.
539
00:26:15,325 --> 00:26:16,826
And I'll tell you somethin' else.
540
00:26:18,036 --> 00:26:21,748
He wouldn't let his pride
keep him from signing a great player.
541
00:26:24,751 --> 00:26:26,670
Let me explain something to you.
542
00:26:26,753 --> 00:26:29,089
If we let go of Norm,
we lose all of our depth at point.
543
00:26:29,172 --> 00:26:31,216
-Come on.
-Yes, we do.
544
00:26:32,008 --> 00:26:34,386
So we better be damn sure
that Magic is up to it.
545
00:26:36,721 --> 00:26:38,723
Are you sure you trust his knee?
546
00:26:42,352 --> 00:26:44,187
Yeah. You bet.
547
00:26:45,855 --> 00:26:48,233
Yeah, he's getting sharper.
548
00:26:48,316 --> 00:26:51,152
He'll rise up ready when the moment comes.
549
00:26:58,743 --> 00:27:01,246
Well then, call Bill
and give him the green light.
550
00:27:05,834 --> 00:27:08,628
He's got a team to run! I mean...
551
00:27:08,712 --> 00:27:11,548
This is a family business
and I told my dad
552
00:27:11,631 --> 00:27:14,134
that I would help my brothers
get their acts together.
553
00:27:14,217 --> 00:27:16,636
Because you don't have
enough to do already.
554
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:17,595
Obviously.
555
00:27:18,972 --> 00:27:20,015
You're jealous.
556
00:27:23,351 --> 00:27:24,352
Wow.
557
00:27:25,937 --> 00:27:28,064
I'm not-- What do you--
No, I'm not jealous.
558
00:27:28,148 --> 00:27:29,733
Jealous of what?
559
00:27:29,816 --> 00:27:33,069
That Johnny gets to traipse off
on some world tour with a gorgeous athlete
560
00:27:33,153 --> 00:27:35,739
and you're stuck here working like a dog.
561
00:27:37,741 --> 00:27:40,452
I love my work. I own a franchise.
562
00:27:40,535 --> 00:27:42,787
That your daddy gave you.
563
00:27:44,247 --> 00:27:45,582
I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that.
564
00:27:46,374 --> 00:27:48,460
I just mean, if you didn't work for him,
565
00:27:48,543 --> 00:27:50,295
then what would you want?
566
00:27:53,506 --> 00:27:55,008
What do you mean "want"?
567
00:27:56,343 --> 00:27:57,844
What do you want?
568
00:27:58,595 --> 00:27:59,846
Maybe you should think about it
569
00:27:59,929 --> 00:28:01,848
because while everyone
is doing what they want,
570
00:28:01,931 --> 00:28:04,017
you're here cleaning up the mess.
571
00:28:05,977 --> 00:28:08,063
I don't remember anything.
572
00:28:08,146 --> 00:28:10,732
Just waking up in a pool in Laurel Canyon
573
00:28:10,815 --> 00:28:13,026
someone threw me in to put me out.
574
00:28:13,109 --> 00:28:14,194
Jesus.
575
00:28:14,277 --> 00:28:15,820
My friends thought it was funny,
576
00:28:15,904 --> 00:28:17,864
me smoldering, naked.
577
00:28:17,947 --> 00:28:20,533
So, I left the party
578
00:28:20,617 --> 00:28:23,536
started walking down Mulholland,
and I was shitfaced.
579
00:28:23,620 --> 00:28:25,914
But I felt the most sober
I'd been in years
580
00:28:25,997 --> 00:28:28,667
and realized
that if somethin' didn't change,
581
00:28:29,292 --> 00:28:31,670
I was gonna die, so.
582
00:28:33,129 --> 00:28:36,007
-That's some heavy shit.
-Yeah.
583
00:28:38,176 --> 00:28:40,428
Well, I'm glad you made it
to the other side.
584
00:28:41,638 --> 00:28:43,640
Yeah. Me, too.
585
00:28:45,141 --> 00:28:46,643
So
586
00:28:47,435 --> 00:28:48,687
what about you?
587
00:28:49,688 --> 00:28:51,189
Me?
588
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:53,608
Mm-hmm.
589
00:28:53,692 --> 00:28:55,819
Come on. What's goin' on with you?
590
00:28:55,902 --> 00:28:59,280
You got me here.
You got me sharing shit.
591
00:28:59,364 --> 00:29:00,907
You bought me this expensive dinner.
592
00:29:00,990 --> 00:29:02,325
You wanna tell me why?
593
00:29:04,244 --> 00:29:05,787
I don't know.
594
00:29:05,870 --> 00:29:08,081
I was just thinkin' about you again and
595
00:29:09,165 --> 00:29:11,167
anyway, I don't know. I don't know.
596
00:29:12,627 --> 00:29:13,670
You remember her?
597
00:29:14,045 --> 00:29:16,673
Oh, come on.
598
00:29:16,756 --> 00:29:18,133
Thursdays at the Playboy Club.
599
00:29:18,216 --> 00:29:19,843
"Double gin and soda. Hurry, Honey."
600
00:29:20,510 --> 00:29:22,762
-Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee.
-Dee-dee-dee.
601
00:29:22,846 --> 00:29:24,431
How is she?
602
00:29:24,973 --> 00:29:26,474
She died.
603
00:29:29,144 --> 00:29:30,812
Like, last year. Mm.
604
00:29:30,895 --> 00:29:33,273
Oh, Buss, I'm sorry.
605
00:29:33,356 --> 00:29:35,608
Yeah. Anyway, you knew her.
606
00:29:35,692 --> 00:29:37,902
You know, not many people I know did.
607
00:29:38,528 --> 00:29:41,448
You know, this whole thing was her dream.
608
00:29:41,865 --> 00:29:44,534
She had a postcard of this house
609
00:29:44,617 --> 00:29:45,910
pinned to the dashboard of the car
610
00:29:45,994 --> 00:29:48,455
the first time
we drove out here to California.
611
00:29:48,538 --> 00:29:52,292
And I'll never forget
that first sight of the ocean.
612
00:29:52,375 --> 00:29:54,586
It was beautiful.
613
00:29:54,669 --> 00:29:56,171
You remind me of that.
614
00:29:57,005 --> 00:29:59,174
You're a changed girl, Honey.
615
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,802
I mean, I'm lookin' at a woman.
616
00:30:03,970 --> 00:30:06,014
A beautiful woman.
617
00:30:06,097 --> 00:30:08,099
Well, that is a change for you.
618
00:30:11,061 --> 00:30:12,479
You wanna stick around?
619
00:30:13,521 --> 00:30:15,857
-Let's go, let's go, let's go!
-Alright, Riles.
620
00:30:15,940 --> 00:30:17,901
Get out your head! Get out your head!
621
00:30:17,984 --> 00:30:19,652
Come on, one more. One more. One more.
622
00:30:21,529 --> 00:30:23,531
There you go!
Get that weak shit outta here.
623
00:30:23,615 --> 00:30:26,117
Okay, let's go. You're throwin' bricks.
Let's go.
624
00:30:32,957 --> 00:30:34,959
You wanna tell Coach I ain't ready?
625
00:30:36,795 --> 00:30:38,755
Why the hell would I do that?
626
00:30:40,256 --> 00:30:41,841
'Cause I ain't.
627
00:30:42,884 --> 00:30:44,344
You will be.
628
00:30:48,431 --> 00:30:49,849
Look, Earvin.
629
00:30:51,309 --> 00:30:53,812
Everybody is a fucking hero
in their driveway.
630
00:30:54,896 --> 00:30:56,648
You put 'em under the bright lights,
631
00:30:56,731 --> 00:30:58,233
a clock tickin' down,
632
00:30:58,316 --> 00:31:01,361
most of them are prayin'
that the ball don't come to them.
633
00:31:02,153 --> 00:31:03,571
One guy is prayin' that it does.
634
00:31:04,656 --> 00:31:06,449
Been that dude my whole life.
635
00:31:07,784 --> 00:31:09,369
Not me.
636
00:31:09,452 --> 00:31:11,121
Maybe in high school,
637
00:31:11,204 --> 00:31:12,789
for a minute in college,
638
00:31:12,872 --> 00:31:14,874
but on the big stage?
639
00:31:16,251 --> 00:31:18,503
I spent those years watchin' that guy,
640
00:31:19,212 --> 00:31:21,297
studyin' him,
641
00:31:21,381 --> 00:31:23,591
so I know what he looks like.
642
00:31:24,551 --> 00:31:26,052
You still seein' him?
643
00:31:29,097 --> 00:31:31,224
Not when you're sittin' on your ass.
644
00:31:36,855 --> 00:31:39,441
Come on. Back to work. Come on.
645
00:31:39,941 --> 00:31:41,776
"Said Nixon,
646
00:31:41,860 --> 00:31:45,572
'Fifteen years from now,
everybody will have forgotten Magic.'"
647
00:31:46,448 --> 00:31:47,949
Goddamn son of a bitch.
648
00:31:48,033 --> 00:31:49,909
Who says that to the fucking press?
649
00:31:49,993 --> 00:31:52,078
I'm sure that
there was some context, Bill.
650
00:31:52,162 --> 00:31:54,581
The good news is that it's only Norm.
651
00:31:54,664 --> 00:31:57,459
The other guys he quoted
all mind their P's and Q's.
652
00:31:57,542 --> 00:31:59,377
-We just ship Norm out for Thompson.
-Okay!
653
00:31:59,461 --> 00:32:00,837
All this is gonna be forgotten.
654
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,006
Tell me I'm hearin' it right.
655
00:32:03,089 --> 00:32:06,676
It's Christmas mornin'
and we got ourselves a deal.
656
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:08,762
Coach? Huh?
657
00:32:10,347 --> 00:32:12,015
Oh, you, Goddammit.
658
00:32:12,098 --> 00:32:13,683
You're not gonna regret this, okay?
659
00:32:13,767 --> 00:32:16,019
I'll get this all shit squared away
before the trade deadline.
660
00:32:16,102 --> 00:32:18,688
We'll breeze into the finals
a brand-new team, huh?
661
00:32:18,772 --> 00:32:21,191
Hey, Jerry, I'd appreciate it
if this didn't get out
662
00:32:21,274 --> 00:32:23,735
before I had a chance
to break it to the fellas personally.
663
00:32:23,818 --> 00:32:25,320
There's enough nonsense
in the press already.
664
00:32:25,403 --> 00:32:26,613
Yeah, absolutely. Okay.
665
00:32:26,696 --> 00:32:28,156
But if you're worried
about the other fellas
666
00:32:28,239 --> 00:32:30,909
balkin' at the deal, don't. Alright?
667
00:32:30,992 --> 00:32:32,827
A malcontent like Nixon,
668
00:32:32,911 --> 00:32:35,288
it's gonna be good riddance
in that locker room.
669
00:32:35,372 --> 00:32:37,582
I mean, hell,
Magic's already struttin' around,
670
00:32:37,665 --> 00:32:39,584
crowing about it like a rooster.
671
00:32:39,668 --> 00:32:41,419
-Bill, can you--
-Hold on, I'm sorry.
672
00:32:42,253 --> 00:32:44,047
Magic knows about the trade?
673
00:32:45,965 --> 00:32:48,385
Yeah. Buss called him
to take his temperature,
674
00:32:48,468 --> 00:32:49,636
and it's red hot.
He's got a fever.
675
00:32:50,428 --> 00:32:52,847
He said we'd be stupid
676
00:32:52,931 --> 00:32:54,432
to pass up on a guy like
David "Skywalker" Thompson.
677
00:32:54,516 --> 00:32:55,517
Paul, don't worry about it.
678
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,602
-You want me to get on the phone...
-No, I'll do it. I'll tell him.
679
00:32:57,686 --> 00:32:59,396
Forget it. Forget it. The trade is off.
680
00:32:59,479 --> 00:33:00,772
-What?
-Paul?
681
00:33:00,855 --> 00:33:02,816
-I beg your fuckin' pardon?
-I'm vetoing the deal.
682
00:33:02,899 --> 00:33:04,693
I heard you loud and clear, princess.
683
00:33:04,776 --> 00:33:07,779
I said, why? I mean--
What the fuckin' fuck?
684
00:33:07,862 --> 00:33:09,906
-You fuckin'--
-Why? 'Cause I have that power.
685
00:33:09,989 --> 00:33:11,241
I have that power in my contract.
686
00:33:11,324 --> 00:33:14,160
Cool it out now. Paul, listen.
687
00:33:14,244 --> 00:33:15,995
-Think it through.
-I am not gonna let--
688
00:33:16,079 --> 00:33:17,831
I am not going to let my men
think that Magic
689
00:33:17,914 --> 00:33:20,667
has some special influence
over their fates.
690
00:33:20,750 --> 00:33:22,419
They talk to the fuckin' boss! So what?
691
00:33:22,502 --> 00:33:24,212
So what? So, I'm his coach.
692
00:33:24,295 --> 00:33:25,880
I'm his coach, Jerry.
693
00:33:25,964 --> 00:33:27,966
And I've been queasy
on this move from the start.
694
00:33:28,049 --> 00:33:30,719
It is off. I'm not gonna
let it disrupt our chemistry.
695
00:33:30,802 --> 00:33:32,137
He's fucking nuts, Bill! Tell him!
696
00:33:32,220 --> 00:33:33,680
Jerry, he's the coach!
697
00:33:34,681 --> 00:33:37,767
But he's not General Patton
stormin' fucking Normandy.
698
00:33:37,851 --> 00:33:39,102
Hell, he only got the job
699
00:33:39,185 --> 00:33:40,770
because McKinney took
a header off a Schwinn
700
00:33:40,854 --> 00:33:43,064
and Pat's runnin' around
doing his legwork!
701
00:33:43,148 --> 00:33:44,524
And now-- Now!
702
00:33:44,607 --> 00:33:46,568
You're gonna get your fat
little fuckin' ass served up
703
00:33:46,651 --> 00:33:49,988
Boston Irish-style in the fuckin' finals!
704
00:33:50,071 --> 00:33:52,323
That's if we make the fuckin' finals!
705
00:33:52,407 --> 00:33:54,034
-Huh!?
-You take it-- Take it back!
706
00:33:54,117 --> 00:33:55,243
-Take that back--
-Jerry!
707
00:33:55,326 --> 00:33:57,037
-This moment!
-Oh! Or what? Huh?
708
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,456
-You gonna call my mom? Huh?
-Hey! Jerry,
709
00:33:59,539 --> 00:34:00,957
-simmer down.
-Call your mom? Huh?
710
00:34:01,041 --> 00:34:03,084
I am taking this team all the way!
711
00:34:04,085 --> 00:34:06,004
Kill the deal!
712
00:34:15,388 --> 00:34:17,639
Welcome to the 1981 NBA playoffs.
713
00:34:17,724 --> 00:34:19,434
I'm Chick Hearn with
the great Keith Erickson here.
714
00:34:19,516 --> 00:34:22,353
And folks, the time has come.
715
00:34:22,437 --> 00:34:24,898
After a season of tumult in Laker land,
716
00:34:24,981 --> 00:34:27,442
your reigning champs are back
to defend their title.
717
00:34:27,525 --> 00:34:30,652
Tonight, round one begins
with a little miniseries,
718
00:34:30,737 --> 00:34:33,114
a best of three games,
against the Houston Rockets,
719
00:34:33,197 --> 00:34:35,408
an underdog if ever there was one.
720
00:34:35,492 --> 00:34:37,327
The Rockets snuck in
with a sub-500 record,
721
00:34:37,409 --> 00:34:39,704
and I'll tell you, Keith,
to look at it on paper,
722
00:34:39,788 --> 00:34:41,956
if these highly touted
Lakers play their game,
723
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,250
they should make short work
of these Texas usurpers.
724
00:34:44,333 --> 00:34:45,585
This shouldn't be a challenge
for the Lakers, Chick.
725
00:34:45,668 --> 00:34:46,670
Not at all.
726
00:34:47,712 --> 00:34:50,840
Johnson rejected at the rim by Malone,
could not draw iron,
727
00:34:50,924 --> 00:34:52,842
and these Lakers
looking badly out of sync.
728
00:34:52,926 --> 00:34:55,303
Magic and Norman are just discombobulated.
729
00:34:55,387 --> 00:34:56,763
And, boy, I'll tell you,
man, if I was them,
730
00:34:56,846 --> 00:34:58,431
I'd save some of that anger
for the other team.
731
00:34:59,891 --> 00:35:01,226
And ladies and gentlemen, that does it.
732
00:35:01,309 --> 00:35:03,770
Lakers drop game one, a shocking upset,
733
00:35:03,853 --> 00:35:05,647
Keith, on their home floor,
734
00:35:05,730 --> 00:35:08,483
fumbling a golden opportunity
to maintain the advantage.
735
00:35:08,566 --> 00:35:10,610
-Hear what Norm had to say?
-Norm?
736
00:35:10,694 --> 00:35:12,278
Yeah, I saw what he said.
737
00:35:12,362 --> 00:35:13,947
He want the ball more? Let him have it.
738
00:35:14,030 --> 00:35:16,032
Hell, maybe they can put
his name right there on it.
739
00:35:16,116 --> 00:35:17,951
Say "Norman" instead of "Spalding."
740
00:35:20,453 --> 00:35:23,748
After a disappointing loss at home,
the Lakers are now facing elimination.
741
00:35:23,832 --> 00:35:27,252
At stake, not just this series,
but a bigger dream,
742
00:35:27,335 --> 00:35:29,546
a chance to be the first team
to repeat as champions
743
00:35:29,629 --> 00:35:33,258
since the Celtics vanquished them in 1969.
744
00:35:38,263 --> 00:35:39,472
I'm talking about the press?
745
00:35:39,556 --> 00:35:42,225
-Yeah, you are!
-Get the fuck out of my face!
746
00:35:43,727 --> 00:35:45,854
Shut the fuck up!
747
00:35:50,316 --> 00:35:51,526
Turn that shit off!
748
00:35:51,609 --> 00:35:52,944
Hey, man, the network said
I could be in here, man!
749
00:35:53,028 --> 00:35:55,739
Gonna be at fucking Cedars-Sinai
if you don't get the fuck up outta here!
750
00:35:57,699 --> 00:35:59,451
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah!
751
00:35:59,534 --> 00:36:02,287
Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
752
00:36:02,370 --> 00:36:04,581
You. You.
753
00:36:05,373 --> 00:36:08,001
Both of you. You wanna win?
754
00:36:09,961 --> 00:36:12,380
I believe I asked a question!
755
00:36:12,464 --> 00:36:14,507
Do you want to win?
756
00:36:14,591 --> 00:36:16,551
-More than anything.
-Of course, nigga, yeah.
757
00:36:16,634 --> 00:36:18,136
You know that!
758
00:36:18,219 --> 00:36:20,680
Then, I want fighting to stop right now.
759
00:36:20,764 --> 00:36:22,140
I mean it. Both of you.
760
00:36:22,682 --> 00:36:24,392
Apologize.
761
00:36:26,478 --> 00:36:27,729
I'm waiting.
762
00:36:29,773 --> 00:36:32,108
He's the one who showed up,
ridin' right in--
763
00:36:32,192 --> 00:36:33,485
I didn't even say nothing!
764
00:36:34,903 --> 00:36:36,237
Apologize!
765
00:36:36,321 --> 00:36:37,614
Come on, Cap. You know--
766
00:36:39,199 --> 00:36:41,159
-You know the press, right?
-Not to me.
767
00:36:42,911 --> 00:36:43,953
To--
768
00:36:46,373 --> 00:36:47,749
Look.
769
00:36:48,416 --> 00:36:50,627
Press took that shit and twisted it, so.
770
00:36:53,046 --> 00:36:55,840
Fine, nigga. I'm sorry. Alright?
771
00:36:55,924 --> 00:36:58,426
-I'm sorry.
-Now you.
772
00:37:00,637 --> 00:37:02,555
Cap, I ain't...
773
00:37:04,516 --> 00:37:07,435
I ain't have to say you was a ball-hog.
774
00:37:07,519 --> 00:37:08,770
My bad.
775
00:37:10,772 --> 00:37:12,315
Okay. We good, we good.
776
00:37:12,399 --> 00:37:13,900
-Come on, y'all.
-That's all we needed.
777
00:37:13,983 --> 00:37:15,402
That's all we needed.
778
00:37:15,485 --> 00:37:17,654
Nope, nope, nope, nope,
nope, nope, nope!
779
00:37:17,737 --> 00:37:18,780
We're not done.
780
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:20,281
Now, hug.
781
00:37:21,866 --> 00:37:23,743
-What'd you say?
-Coop.
782
00:37:23,827 --> 00:37:25,704
-Coop?
-I want y'all to hug.
783
00:37:25,787 --> 00:37:28,456
What? I ain't gonna hug no grown-ass man.
784
00:37:28,540 --> 00:37:30,417
I got all night, so.
785
00:37:30,500 --> 00:37:32,502
You're brothers, man. Come on.
Just do that shit!
786
00:37:34,546 --> 00:37:35,880
I hate you, Coop.
787
00:37:37,424 --> 00:37:39,884
-There you go!
-That's perfect!
788
00:37:39,968 --> 00:37:41,970
-Doesn't that feel nice?
-Why you like this so much, man?
789
00:37:42,053 --> 00:37:44,806
Get the fuck outta my face!
790
00:37:44,889 --> 00:37:46,349
-Let's go win the game.
-Fuck yeah!
791
00:37:46,433 --> 00:37:48,101
Let's go win the game!
792
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,897
I'm fine. I'm fine.
793
00:37:52,981 --> 00:37:56,484
Hey! And with their season on the line,
794
00:37:57,569 --> 00:38:00,864
our heroes get their mojo back
in the nick of time
795
00:38:00,947 --> 00:38:03,491
to tie this series one-to-one, huh?
796
00:38:04,701 --> 00:38:07,287
The question now,
the question now,
797
00:38:07,370 --> 00:38:09,205
how badly will these Lakers
798
00:38:09,289 --> 00:38:12,292
leave the Rockets bleeding
from their rectums
799
00:38:12,375 --> 00:38:15,587
as they pound these Texans
like a bitch in heat?
800
00:38:15,670 --> 00:38:18,381
Ha-ha! The answer? Tune in Sunday.
801
00:38:18,465 --> 00:38:20,467
Sunday! Sunday!
802
00:38:20,550 --> 00:38:22,344
Sunday! Yes! Cheers.
803
00:38:22,427 --> 00:38:24,304
Chick, you need to
drink a little water now.
804
00:38:24,387 --> 00:38:27,640
No! Grab another drink, Chick!
Grab another drink, Chick.
805
00:38:27,724 --> 00:38:29,768
Oh, he's got a nice hand. I'll tell ya.
806
00:38:43,656 --> 00:38:44,991
Ask me, you got robbed.
807
00:38:45,784 --> 00:38:47,452
Nah.
808
00:38:47,535 --> 00:38:49,788
Jack had some year.
809
00:38:49,871 --> 00:38:51,623
Besides, I'm playing
for the real prize, right?
810
00:38:52,624 --> 00:38:55,043
I'm just saying, you had my vote.
811
00:38:56,503 --> 00:38:59,381
The way you had Riles
working out with Magic on the sly.
812
00:39:01,216 --> 00:39:02,509
Sorry, what are you talking about?
813
00:39:02,592 --> 00:39:04,594
Come on. We're off the record, Coach.
814
00:39:05,553 --> 00:39:08,515
I get it. Send in the old pro.
815
00:39:08,598 --> 00:39:10,183
A guy the kid can trust,
816
00:39:10,266 --> 00:39:11,810
find out his knee is
worse than he lets on
817
00:39:11,893 --> 00:39:14,896
so you decide to kill
the deal for Thompson.
818
00:39:15,689 --> 00:39:17,691
Keep Norm in the fold
as another point guard.
819
00:39:19,150 --> 00:39:22,362
Sharp stuff.
If it wasn't such a state secret,
820
00:39:22,445 --> 00:39:24,364
I bet it would have put you over the top.
821
00:39:27,242 --> 00:39:28,868
Yeah.
822
00:39:33,123 --> 00:39:34,958
-I'ma tell you what I mean.
-Show me! Show me!
823
00:39:35,041 --> 00:39:36,710
Got these two, and you got this.
824
00:39:36,793 --> 00:39:38,795
How's that? What's that look like?
825
00:39:38,878 --> 00:39:40,964
-Oh!
-Huh? Read 'em and weep.
826
00:39:41,923 --> 00:39:44,092
Now I'm just your friend
827
00:39:44,175 --> 00:39:46,136
But you won't let me off, baby
828
00:39:46,219 --> 00:39:47,220
Excuse me.
829
00:39:48,138 --> 00:39:49,764
And I just keep on losin'
830
00:39:49,848 --> 00:39:52,100
-Alright, alright, so.
-Got two of these...
831
00:39:52,183 --> 00:39:54,102
Oh, see, that's some bullshit!
Look at that.
832
00:39:54,185 --> 00:39:56,438
-All these. I got all of these.
-A magician.
833
00:39:56,521 --> 00:39:58,690
Let's bring some of that
million-dollar deal.
834
00:39:58,773 --> 00:39:59,733
-Whoa!
-Hey.
835
00:39:59,816 --> 00:40:00,692
-Come here.
-What's up?
836
00:40:03,403 --> 00:40:05,321
Hey. Hey, hey, hey, Paul, Paul, Paul.
837
00:40:05,947 --> 00:40:07,657
Maybe I've been givin' you
the wrong hints.
838
00:40:07,741 --> 00:40:09,743
But I consider you a friend, huh.
839
00:40:09,826 --> 00:40:11,619
-Do you? Consider me a friend?
-Hey...
840
00:40:13,621 --> 00:40:16,624
Friends do not sneak around
behind friends' backs.
841
00:40:17,208 --> 00:40:19,377
Friends do not hide important facts!
842
00:40:19,461 --> 00:40:22,213
-Important facts from friends.
-Hey, hey, hey, hey.
843
00:40:22,297 --> 00:40:24,424
Friends do not betray friends' trusts,
844
00:40:24,507 --> 00:40:27,719
especially when one friend
is the head coach
845
00:40:27,802 --> 00:40:30,221
-and the other friend is his assistant!
-Okay, okay, I get.
846
00:40:30,305 --> 00:40:33,224
You mean us. I get it.
What exactly did I do?
847
00:40:34,225 --> 00:40:36,394
Your little secret practice sessions.
848
00:40:36,478 --> 00:40:38,021
-What?
-Pat. What?
849
00:40:38,104 --> 00:40:39,773
Working on his knee
850
00:40:39,856 --> 00:40:41,524
because it's worse than he let on.
851
00:40:41,608 --> 00:40:44,694
-You held out on me, Pat.
-He needed confidence.
852
00:40:44,778 --> 00:40:46,696
I needed the truth.
853
00:40:46,780 --> 00:40:49,407
-He needed help.
-He needed his fucking coach!
854
00:40:49,491 --> 00:40:51,076
You think if you shout it loud enough,
855
00:40:51,159 --> 00:40:52,786
it's gonna make
the world think that's you?
856
00:40:52,869 --> 00:40:54,245
Huh?
857
00:40:55,330 --> 00:40:57,832
A real coach doesn't
need to prove it, Paul.
858
00:41:00,543 --> 00:41:03,004
Why else did you say no to Skywalker, huh?
859
00:41:03,088 --> 00:41:04,547
-I have been through this with you.
-Be honest.
860
00:41:04,631 --> 00:41:07,092
Johnson has no right
to interfere in a trade.
861
00:41:07,175 --> 00:41:10,178
-It is precedent!
-It's your fucking ego!
862
00:41:10,845 --> 00:41:12,347
And your pride!
863
00:41:13,264 --> 00:41:15,433
And you know it!
864
00:41:15,517 --> 00:41:17,477
And I got news for you! Earvin was right!
865
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,896
If we had Thompson on this team
instead of Norm,
866
00:41:19,979 --> 00:41:21,981
we'd be resting for round two,
867
00:41:22,065 --> 00:41:24,567
not starin' down the barrel
at elimination!
868
00:41:25,944 --> 00:41:27,654
Yo, man, you know that ain't how I feel.
869
00:41:27,737 --> 00:41:29,948
Hey, man. What the fuck, bro? Really?
870
00:41:36,830 --> 00:41:38,206
He was talking--
871
00:41:40,667 --> 00:41:43,336
And this has been a slugfest, folks.
Nothin' pretty.
872
00:41:43,420 --> 00:41:45,797
Rockets in possession now,
under a minute to go.
873
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:47,132
Rockets with a chance to take the lead.
874
00:41:47,215 --> 00:41:48,883
Miscommunication by the Lakers.
875
00:41:48,967 --> 00:41:50,719
Magic and Norm leading Dunleavy wide open.
876
00:41:50,802 --> 00:41:52,178
Oh, no!
877
00:41:52,262 --> 00:41:54,264
-And it's good. Rockets take the lead.
-Time out!
878
00:41:54,347 --> 00:41:55,807
Time out.
879
00:41:55,890 --> 00:41:57,726
-Time out, Lakers!
-And they need it, Chick.
880
00:41:57,809 --> 00:41:59,769
-Unbelievable.
-Bring it in! Come on, let's go.
881
00:41:59,853 --> 00:42:02,105
Well, ladies and gentlemen,
it is nervous time.
882
00:42:02,188 --> 00:42:05,150
Lakers down by one with
15 seconds on the clock.
883
00:42:05,233 --> 00:42:08,778
And, Keith Erickson, they have scratched
and clawed the entire night long
884
00:42:08,862 --> 00:42:11,072
just to stay in this one
but it has not been pretty.
885
00:42:11,156 --> 00:42:14,117
I'll tell you, the offense just completely
out of sync again.
886
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,786
And the defense,
well, do not get me started.
887
00:42:16,870 --> 00:42:18,955
The one silver lining, they have the ball,
888
00:42:19,039 --> 00:42:20,373
they have the time, and now
889
00:42:21,041 --> 00:42:22,625
they just need to fuckin' score.
890
00:42:22,709 --> 00:42:25,962
Gentlemen! Find your breath!
891
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:28,423
Here we are!
892
00:42:29,841 --> 00:42:32,594
Norm! I'm gonna need you
to help out just in case.
893
00:42:32,677 --> 00:42:35,722
When Magic gets that ball, you get going!
894
00:42:35,805 --> 00:42:38,558
But I need you sticking
to the options. Okay?
895
00:42:38,641 --> 00:42:40,310
No hero ball!
896
00:42:40,393 --> 00:42:43,104
Option one is Cap.
897
00:42:43,188 --> 00:42:45,857
Option two is Silk.
898
00:42:45,940 --> 00:42:47,400
Three, you find Cooper for the lob.
899
00:42:49,069 --> 00:42:50,779
-Hey, let's win, fellas!
-Okay.
900
00:42:50,862 --> 00:42:53,531
Win on three! One, two, three!
901
00:42:53,615 --> 00:42:54,657
Win!
902
00:42:57,369 --> 00:42:59,120
Let's go! Do it. Do it.
903
00:42:59,204 --> 00:43:00,205
Earvin! Earvin.
904
00:43:02,415 --> 00:43:05,502
You're the guy. You're the guy. Okay?
905
00:43:08,588 --> 00:43:09,464
Got you.
906
00:43:13,468 --> 00:43:16,554
Tired of that fuckin' numbskull.
907
00:43:19,432 --> 00:43:20,892
I got you.
908
00:43:35,824 --> 00:43:38,451
Earvin, calm! Calm!
909
00:43:43,998 --> 00:43:45,458
Cap, high post!
910
00:43:52,674 --> 00:43:54,718
Earvin! Option one!
911
00:43:57,971 --> 00:43:59,139
EJ!
912
00:43:59,222 --> 00:44:01,224
Pass the fucking ball, Earvin!
913
00:44:16,531 --> 00:44:18,283
Air ball.
914
00:44:18,366 --> 00:44:20,410
Lakers fouling to stop the clock
915
00:44:20,493 --> 00:44:23,747
with nary a second left,
and that was likely it, folks.
916
00:44:24,414 --> 00:44:25,623
Ah.
917
00:44:26,124 --> 00:44:29,044
Man, oh, man.
Well, for the first time in three decades,
918
00:44:29,127 --> 00:44:31,755
the defending champion
is about to be eliminated
919
00:44:31,838 --> 00:44:34,174
from round one of the playoffs.
920
00:44:41,556 --> 00:44:46,269
Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
921
00:44:46,353 --> 00:44:49,481
'Bout your plans to make me blue
922
00:44:50,190 --> 00:44:53,568
With some other guy you knew before
923
00:44:53,651 --> 00:44:55,945
Between the two of us guys
924
00:44:56,029 --> 00:44:58,239
You know I love you more
925
00:44:58,323 --> 00:45:00,617
It took me by surprise
926
00:45:00,700 --> 00:45:02,619
I must say
927
00:45:02,702 --> 00:45:06,206
When I found out yesterday
928
00:45:06,289 --> 00:45:09,250
Don't you know that I heard it
through the grapevine?
929
00:45:10,752 --> 00:45:14,381
Not much longer would you be mine
930
00:45:14,964 --> 00:45:17,676
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
931
00:45:18,885 --> 00:45:22,555
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
932
00:45:22,639 --> 00:45:24,432
Honey, honey, well...
933
00:45:32,982 --> 00:45:36,778
People say believe half of what you see
934
00:45:36,861 --> 00:45:41,032
Son, and none of what you hear
935
00:45:41,116 --> 00:45:45,036
But I can't help bein' confused
936
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:48,957
If it's true, please, tell me, dear
937
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:53,253
Do you plan to let me go
938
00:45:53,336 --> 00:45:57,090
For the other guy you loved before?
939
00:45:57,173 --> 00:46:01,261
Don't you know I heard it
through the grapevine
940
00:46:01,344 --> 00:46:05,348
Not much longer would you be mine
941
00:46:05,432 --> 00:46:09,561
Baby, I heard it through the grapevine
942
00:46:09,644 --> 00:46:13,565
Ooh, just about to lose my mind
943
00:46:13,648 --> 00:46:15,734
Honey, honey, yeah
944
00:46:15,817 --> 00:46:19,863
Hear it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be my baby
945
00:46:21,656 --> 00:46:23,867
Honey, honey, I know
946
00:46:23,950 --> 00:46:25,827
Hear it through the grapevine
not much longer
947
00:46:25,910 --> 00:46:27,912
That you're lettin' me go
948
00:46:29,039 --> 00:46:30,415
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
949
00:46:30,498 --> 00:46:33,543
Said I heard it through the grapevine69584
