1
00:00:09,250 --> 00:00:10,958
It was a polio year,
2
00:00:11,041 --> 00:00:13,083
and I was 6 years old,
3
00:00:13,166 --> 00:00:14,708
and my mother
decides to teach me
4
00:00:14,791 --> 00:00:17,083
every card and board game
known to man.
5
00:00:17,166 --> 00:00:20,458
Gin rummy, blackjack,
poker, bridge.
6
00:00:20,541 --> 00:00:22,416
Eventually,
we landed on Monopoly.
7
00:00:22,500 --> 00:00:25,500
Now, Monopoly takes strategy,
8
00:00:25,583 --> 00:00:27,875
and skill,like those other games,
9
00:00:27,958 --> 00:00:30,541
but it also throws in
an element of chance.
10
00:00:30,625 --> 00:00:33,166
So, no matter how goodyou are at the game,
11
00:00:33,250 --> 00:00:34,875
the bad breaks come,
12
00:00:34,958 --> 00:00:36,625
and they knock you on your ass.
13
00:00:36,708 --> 00:00:39,958
And, well, lately,
we've had a few of those.
14
00:00:40,041 --> 00:00:42,041
"Banker's up your ass.
15
00:00:42,125 --> 00:00:43,416
Pay three million bucks."
16
00:00:43,500 --> 00:00:45,333
"Coach falls off bike.
17
00:00:45,416 --> 00:00:47,375
Go back 10 spaces."
18
00:00:47,458 --> 00:00:49,791
"Mother diagnosed
with metastatic cancer.
19
00:00:49,875 --> 00:00:52,208
Stare into abyss."
20
00:00:52,291 --> 00:00:55,416
Yeah.
So, it turns out my mother
wasn't losing her marbles.
21
00:00:55,500 --> 00:00:59,708
It was cancer giving
her strokes. Anyway...
22
00:00:59,791 --> 00:01:03,458
Thing about luck is,
it cuts both ways.
23
00:01:03,541 --> 00:01:06,958
You hold on long enough,
and you stay in the game.
24
00:01:07,958 --> 00:01:09,416
It's the law of big numbers.
25
00:01:10,333 --> 00:01:11,708
Eventually...
26
00:01:12,416 --> 00:01:13,875
it goes your way.
27
00:01:13,958 --> 00:01:17,958
"Win NBA Championship.
Find happiness
and peace you seek."
28
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,833
My point is...
29
00:01:21,916 --> 00:01:23,250
I'm fucking due.
30
00:01:23,333 --> 00:01:26,250
("My Favorite Mutiny"
by The Coup playing
31
00:02:54,041 --> 00:02:56,583
- (whistle blows
32
00:02:59,541 --> 00:03:01,916
Well, that stings, Patrick.
Lakers staring down
33
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,333
the barrel of another loss,
34
00:03:03,416 --> 00:03:06,250
now hanging on to first in
the division by a wee thread.
35
00:03:06,333 --> 00:03:09,208
Momentum is wearing off.
With Jack McKinney out,
36
00:03:09,291 --> 00:03:12,041
- Paul Westhead is trying to do
an awful lot all by himself.
- Hey! Psst!
37
00:03:12,125 --> 00:03:13,916
Kid! Come here!
38
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,250
Defense!
39
00:03:16,333 --> 00:03:18,166
Jesus fucking Christ.
Jack, what the fuck?
40
00:03:18,250 --> 00:03:20,250
- Okay, come on!
- Hey, Coach!
41
00:03:20,333 --> 00:03:21,541
Get me back in the game!
42
00:03:21,625 --> 00:03:23,541
Come on, Coach.
Get me back in there!
43
00:03:23,625 --> 00:03:25,791
- Get Silk outta there!
- Come on!
44
00:03:25,875 --> 00:03:28,250
Get your goddamn head outta
your ass, for Christ's sake!
45
00:03:28,333 --> 00:03:29,958
You suck, Westhead,
you suck!
46
00:03:30,041 --> 00:03:31,750
- Ref!
- You're outta timeouts.
47
00:03:31,833 --> 00:03:33,708
Riley said that
I should tell you.
48
00:03:36,375 --> 00:03:38,250
Fuck! Okay.
49
00:03:39,708 --> 00:03:41,250
Cooper, foul!
Take the foul!
50
00:03:41,333 --> 00:03:43,083
- Well,
Michael Cooper takes
51
00:03:43,166 --> 00:03:45,416
an intentional foul,
and, uh, well,
52
00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:47,208
you gotta wonder
whose intent it was
53
00:03:47,291 --> 00:03:49,458
because he's picked up
his sixth foul,
54
00:03:49,541 --> 00:03:51,833
- and he has fouled
out of the game.
- No, no, you're staying in.
55
00:03:51,916 --> 00:03:55,208
- Coach, that's six.
I'm out of the game.
- Okay, Chones!
56
00:03:55,291 --> 00:03:57,333
Ankle.
He's in the locker room.
57
00:04:00,958 --> 00:04:02,208
Landsberger?
58
00:04:03,208 --> 00:04:05,416
- Me? Landsberger?
- Yes! Come on.
59
00:04:05,500 --> 00:04:08,291
You out your
goddamn mind, man.
You out your goddamn mind.
60
00:04:16,750 --> 00:04:18,208
Let's focus up, guys.
61
00:04:20,291 --> 00:04:21,833
Alright, Country, look.
62
00:04:21,916 --> 00:04:23,333
Go quick.
Two for one, yeah?
63
00:04:23,416 --> 00:04:25,791
Y'all take off on the inbounds,
and I'll hit you on the flop.
64
00:04:25,875 --> 00:04:28,458
- Word.
- Cool? Cool?
You good, Coach?
65
00:04:29,708 --> 00:04:31,875
Alright, we got ya,
Coach.
66
00:04:33,875 --> 00:04:35,416
You need to cut bait.
67
00:04:35,500 --> 00:04:37,541
You're jumping the gun.
He's jumping the gun.
68
00:04:37,625 --> 00:04:39,125
West-- Westhead's still
getting his sea legs.
69
00:04:39,208 --> 00:04:41,083
Oh, fucking-- You can't
teach a pig to paint, Bill.
70
00:04:41,166 --> 00:04:43,083
I mean, the boys,
th-they're out there,
treating him like
71
00:04:43,166 --> 00:04:45,916
a substitute fuckin' teacher
'cause that's what he is.
72
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,458
Fellas are
coaching themselves.
73
00:04:47,541 --> 00:04:49,625
- And we're surviving it.
- For now.
74
00:04:49,708 --> 00:04:51,416
What are you even
doing here, Jerry?
75
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:53,041
Shouldn't you be
on a golf course?
76
00:04:53,125 --> 00:04:54,791
Oh! Fuck it!
I may be retired, Bill,
77
00:04:54,875 --> 00:04:56,583
but I ain't fuckin'
Helen Keller!
78
00:04:56,666 --> 00:04:59,625
- I can see what's going on!
I give a fuck! I care!
- Okay. Okay!
79
00:04:59,708 --> 00:05:01,375
You don't think Paul
can hold the fort
80
00:05:01,458 --> 00:05:03,000
until McKinney is back
on his feet?
81
00:05:03,083 --> 00:05:05,333
It depends. How soon is that?
82
00:05:05,416 --> 00:05:07,541
Docs don't know.
Maybe the All-Star game.
83
00:05:07,625 --> 00:05:10,375
See? Or maybe the Playoffs.
84
00:05:10,458 --> 00:05:11,541
Then it becomes a chess match.
85
00:05:11,625 --> 00:05:13,916
If we don't have
a real coach soon,
86
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,166
you may as well give up
on the fuckin' season.
87
00:05:16,250 --> 00:05:18,750
I'm not giving up on anything.
88
00:05:18,833 --> 00:05:20,416
Then Elgin Baylor's our guy.
89
00:05:20,500 --> 00:05:22,833
Y... Your guy.
90
00:05:22,916 --> 00:05:24,166
I just heard from him.
91
00:05:24,250 --> 00:05:27,000
Rumors hit him, too,
that we may need reinforcements.
92
00:05:27,083 --> 00:05:29,041
Lifetime Laker,
guys respect him.
93
00:05:29,125 --> 00:05:31,250
Good story. Hell, great
fuckin' story for the fans.
94
00:05:31,333 --> 00:05:32,750
Shit, I woulda hired him
the first time around
95
00:05:32,833 --> 00:05:35,750
if we had the chance, but,
uh, him leaving Utah now?
96
00:05:35,833 --> 00:05:38,291
Well, that's just kismet.
Lady luck.
97
00:05:38,375 --> 00:05:40,958
We play his brand of
offense, he slots right in.
98
00:05:41,041 --> 00:05:43,750
And if we pull
the trigger soon...
99
00:05:43,833 --> 00:05:45,708
Well, he's still got time
to make some changes
100
00:05:45,791 --> 00:05:47,375
and make the team his own.
101
00:05:47,458 --> 00:05:48,958
I'm telling you.
It's shit
102
00:05:49,041 --> 00:05:51,500
- or get off the pot.
- Alright.
103
00:05:51,583 --> 00:05:53,375
We bring him in as a sub.
104
00:05:53,458 --> 00:05:55,125
And what happens
when McKinney's ready?
105
00:05:55,208 --> 00:05:57,208
Well, that's going
to be the problem.
106
00:05:57,291 --> 00:05:59,541
No coach worth his salt is
going to come in as a temp,
107
00:05:59,625 --> 00:06:01,791
so you'll have to make Elgin...
108
00:06:01,875 --> 00:06:04,125
you know, a guarantee,
probably the end of the season.
109
00:06:04,208 --> 00:06:05,875
You're saying cut bait
on McKinney, too.
110
00:06:05,958 --> 00:06:07,708
It's a big risk,
changing horses.
111
00:06:07,791 --> 00:06:10,875
It's all a fucking big risk,
Bill. I mean, shit.
112
00:06:10,958 --> 00:06:12,333
Your best bet's
in the hospital,
113
00:06:12,416 --> 00:06:14,708
you got Hamlet on the sideline
looking for his fuckin' dick.
114
00:06:14,791 --> 00:06:17,083
All I'm saying is "interim."
115
00:06:18,833 --> 00:06:21,708
It must end. It's what
the fuckin' word means.
116
00:06:21,791 --> 00:06:24,250
You have to put your chips
on someone soon,
117
00:06:24,333 --> 00:06:26,666
or you can kiss
the fuckin' season goodbye.
118
00:06:30,333 --> 00:06:31,625
Fuck a duck.
119
00:06:47,166 --> 00:06:48,833
Crisscross applesauce.
120
00:06:49,333 --> 00:06:50,208
What?
121
00:06:50,291 --> 00:06:52,416
Crisscross applesauce.
122
00:06:52,500 --> 00:06:54,166
Could you please not help me?
123
00:06:54,250 --> 00:06:55,333
Just...
124
00:06:56,750 --> 00:06:58,041
Yes, you're almost there.
125
00:06:58,125 --> 00:07:00,666
You just have to ke-- keep
pulling the lace through the--
126
00:07:00,750 --> 00:07:02,125
- Goddamn it!
127
00:07:04,208 --> 00:07:06,958
Been working on your
shooting touch?
128
00:07:07,041 --> 00:07:08,958
I got a coach around
here somewhere.
129
00:07:10,333 --> 00:07:11,416
This a bad time?
130
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:13,833
No. Stay.
131
00:07:13,916 --> 00:07:15,791
We need the break.
132
00:07:15,875 --> 00:07:16,916
I'm sorry.
133
00:07:20,875 --> 00:07:23,916
She needs a break from me.
You caught me in a mood.
134
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,000
Hm, you must have seen
the game last night.
135
00:07:27,083 --> 00:07:28,583
They pulled it out.
136
00:07:28,666 --> 00:07:29,833
Yeah,
137
00:07:29,916 --> 00:07:32,416
and the guys said that
should've been an easy one.
138
00:07:34,583 --> 00:07:36,458
What else
are the guys saying?
139
00:07:36,541 --> 00:07:38,625
That we're being out-coached.
140
00:07:38,708 --> 00:07:41,875
And this keeps up,
we're gonna blow our shot.
141
00:07:43,375 --> 00:07:45,916
They've seen enough.
142
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,875
I need to make
a run this season, Jack.
143
00:07:50,958 --> 00:07:53,666
Then bet on me.
144
00:07:53,750 --> 00:07:56,666
I know I don't look like
your sure thing, but...
145
00:07:57,458 --> 00:07:59,166
I'm your guy.
146
00:08:00,166 --> 00:08:02,208
I'm comin' back.
147
00:08:02,291 --> 00:08:04,791
- If Westhead keeps slip--
- Give him the road trip.
148
00:08:06,833 --> 00:08:09,500
Indiana, Detroit.
149
00:08:09,583 --> 00:08:12,000
Boston. Now, there's a test.
150
00:08:12,083 --> 00:08:13,500
That's the best team
in the league.
151
00:08:13,583 --> 00:08:16,291
Closest thing to playoff-
level competition.
152
00:08:16,375 --> 00:08:17,875
And it's the Garden.
153
00:08:17,958 --> 00:08:19,916
You know what the Garden's like.
It's a beast.
154
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,166
If Paul can beat them
in the Garden,
155
00:08:23,250 --> 00:08:25,875
then he can mind the store
until the doctors clear me
156
00:08:25,958 --> 00:08:28,458
to come back. One month.
157
00:08:28,541 --> 00:08:30,583
Two months tops.
158
00:08:32,166 --> 00:08:34,958
Look at you.
159
00:08:39,250 --> 00:08:41,625
Boston.
160
00:08:41,708 --> 00:08:43,708
You're under a microscope.
161
00:08:43,791 --> 00:08:45,000
West is circling like a vulture
162
00:08:45,083 --> 00:08:46,875
and already lookingto replace us.
163
00:08:46,958 --> 00:08:49,500
Christ.
I'm doing my best, Jack.
164
00:08:49,583 --> 00:08:51,083
I need better than that.
165
00:08:51,166 --> 00:08:53,416
I came back from
the dead for this.
166
00:08:53,500 --> 00:08:56,375
- For this, Paul.
- I know.
167
00:08:56,458 --> 00:08:58,083
I should be gone. I'm not.
168
00:08:58,166 --> 00:09:00,750
I'm here, and I'll beback on that sideline
169
00:09:00,833 --> 00:09:02,333
if it kills me again.
170
00:09:02,416 --> 00:09:05,458
But not if you can't keepthis thing together for me.
171
00:09:05,541 --> 00:09:07,958
I won't let you down, Jack.
172
00:09:15,541 --> 00:09:18,791
I'm just glad a lifetime of this
shit is good for something.
173
00:09:18,875 --> 00:09:21,708
I would, uh...
174
00:09:21,791 --> 00:09:24,208
What do you...
What do you think
175
00:09:24,291 --> 00:09:26,916
about if we make this
something more official?
176
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,416
- This thing, you and me?
- Uh...
177
00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:32,958
I'm a married man.
178
00:09:33,041 --> 00:09:35,666
I'm flailing out there,
Pat.
179
00:09:36,833 --> 00:09:39,166
I know it.
180
00:09:39,250 --> 00:09:42,791
Everybody knows it.
I need an assistant.
181
00:09:42,875 --> 00:09:44,458
And not like this,
you know, ad hoc
182
00:09:44,541 --> 00:09:46,791
passing notes down
from the press box.
183
00:09:46,875 --> 00:09:49,000
I need somebody with me.
184
00:09:50,083 --> 00:09:52,000
On the bench.
185
00:09:52,083 --> 00:09:53,750
For this trip.
186
00:09:53,833 --> 00:09:56,708
- But, assistant coach?
- Yeah, I mean, why not?
187
00:09:57,583 --> 00:10:00,000
You're fucking
great at it.
188
00:10:00,083 --> 00:10:02,333
Look, no offense
to your broadcasting career,
189
00:10:02,416 --> 00:10:04,041
but Chick is not
going to miss you.
190
00:10:04,125 --> 00:10:07,041
- Is he? I will.
- No.
191
00:10:07,125 --> 00:10:10,333
I really will.
So, so, what do you say?
192
00:10:11,916 --> 00:10:13,500
Please.
193
00:10:17,750 --> 00:10:18,958
What about Jack?
194
00:10:19,041 --> 00:10:21,375
What happens when
he comes back? I mean,
195
00:10:21,458 --> 00:10:23,041
if I quit my job for this,
196
00:10:23,125 --> 00:10:25,833
I can't go back
to wandering the beach.
I-I'll fucking croak.
197
00:10:25,916 --> 00:10:28,041
We'll keep you-- He'll...
198
00:10:28,125 --> 00:10:30,041
He'll keep you on.
199
00:10:30,833 --> 00:10:32,958
- Yeah?
- Absolutely.
200
00:10:42,750 --> 00:10:44,875
Fuck it! What? Fuck it.
201
00:10:44,958 --> 00:10:46,541
- Fuck it yes?
202
00:10:46,625 --> 00:10:48,375
Shit, fuck it. Yeah, I'm in.
203
00:10:48,458 --> 00:10:50,583
- Yes!
- Let's kick some ass.
204
00:10:50,666 --> 00:10:52,625
This is-- Let's kick--
Yeah, absolutely.
205
00:10:52,708 --> 00:10:54,541
I'm gonna shake your hand,
and I'm gonna hug you.
206
00:10:54,625 --> 00:10:57,208
And Johnson's puttingon a show tonight,
207
00:10:57,291 --> 00:11:01,000
a tremendous athlete witha talented team behind him.
208
00:11:01,083 --> 00:11:03,083
But, man for man, Larry Bird
209
00:11:03,166 --> 00:11:05,041
has got to bethe more skilled player.
210
00:11:05,125 --> 00:11:06,875
This kid fromIndiana farm country,
211
00:11:06,958 --> 00:11:09,583
he's not thinking aboutthe shot in front of him.
212
00:11:09,666 --> 00:11:11,541
He's thinking about the game.
213
00:11:11,625 --> 00:11:14,625
He must see the wholecourt in his head.
214
00:11:17,166 --> 00:11:19,333
I want to thank my family.I want to thank Coach
215
00:11:19,416 --> 00:11:22,250
for drawing up a game planand Indiana State for--
216
00:11:22,333 --> 00:11:24,583
- They played a hell of a game.
217
00:11:24,666 --> 00:11:28,250
Mm, all the fansthat done came out.
218
00:11:28,333 --> 00:11:31,541
- I just wanna say thank--
219
00:11:31,625 --> 00:11:34,875
Gonna torch thatsmiley ass in Boston, punk.
220
00:11:36,250 --> 00:11:38,208
You wish, motherfucker.
221
00:11:43,666 --> 00:11:46,291
Here you go, sir. Time to take
the Magic Show on the road.
222
00:11:46,375 --> 00:11:49,375
Three cities, five nights,
223
00:11:49,458 --> 00:11:52,125
two in Michigan.
Gonna catch the fam,
224
00:11:52,208 --> 00:11:54,958
see Cook,
then it's off to Boston.
225
00:11:55,041 --> 00:11:57,125
Hey, Magic! Magic! Hey, Magic!
226
00:11:57,208 --> 00:12:00,166
First shot at Larry Bird
as a pro. You excited?
227
00:12:00,250 --> 00:12:03,000
Larry on this trip?
Guess I must've forgot.
228
00:12:03,083 --> 00:12:04,541
I got my mind
on Detroit.
229
00:12:04,625 --> 00:12:07,333
Whole team be coming by
the Johnson family house
230
00:12:07,416 --> 00:12:08,625
for Christmas dinner.
231
00:12:08,708 --> 00:12:10,291
We'll bring y'all doggie bag.
232
00:12:10,375 --> 00:12:12,000
I know it's a big rematch.
233
00:12:12,083 --> 00:12:13,666
- Any nerves?
- Nerves?
234
00:12:13,750 --> 00:12:15,291
Nah, it's just
another game, man.
235
00:12:15,375 --> 00:12:17,208
I'm sure you've heard
the numbers Larry put on Philly.
236
00:12:17,291 --> 00:12:19,250
I mean, they're
already talking MVP.
237
00:12:19,333 --> 00:12:21,625
Yeah? Hadn't heard.
238
00:12:21,708 --> 00:12:23,750
Excuse me, fellas.
Got a flight to catch.
239
00:12:23,833 --> 00:12:26,041
Do you think
he's Rookie of the Year?
240
00:12:28,666 --> 00:12:30,750
You know, y'all keep
asking me about him.
241
00:12:30,833 --> 00:12:34,125
Larry took me
too light last time.
And how that work out?
242
00:12:34,208 --> 00:12:36,666
- Dude best be worryin' about me.
- That's my quote.
243
00:12:36,750 --> 00:12:38,875
- So you out for blood this time?
- Will he be crying
into another towel...
244
00:12:38,958 --> 00:12:40,916
- Gentlemen!
- ...after this game or what?
245
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,083
That's enough.
We have a flight.
246
00:12:43,166 --> 00:12:45,250
No more questions, Cap.
247
00:12:45,333 --> 00:12:46,875
I fucked up, didn't I?
248
00:12:52,250 --> 00:12:54,250
Hey, Earvin.
249
00:12:54,333 --> 00:12:56,625
There you go.
First road trip?
250
00:12:56,708 --> 00:12:57,791
- Mm-hmm.
- Alright. You know,
251
00:12:57,875 --> 00:12:59,416
there are gonna be
a lot of groupies out there.
252
00:12:59,500 --> 00:13:01,208
You just wanna... wrap it up,
253
00:13:01,291 --> 00:13:02,416
you know what I'm saying?
254
00:13:02,500 --> 00:13:05,000
- We'll see.
- Alright? Trust me.
255
00:13:05,083 --> 00:13:07,083
- Hey, kid.
- Hey, Chick.
256
00:13:07,166 --> 00:13:08,458
I'm telling you,
Patricia, you're making
257
00:13:08,541 --> 00:13:10,625
a big mistake with this
whole coaching business.
258
00:13:10,708 --> 00:13:12,750
I think your true calling
is in herding cats.
259
00:13:12,833 --> 00:13:15,375
- Ha, ha. Thanks, Chick.
260
00:13:15,458 --> 00:13:16,833
I'm gonna miss him.
261
00:13:16,916 --> 00:13:19,125
- Take this, please. Thank you.
- Please! Just listen! Pat!
262
00:13:19,208 --> 00:13:20,500
- Jerry?
- You tell the Gestapo here--
263
00:13:20,583 --> 00:13:21,791
This man does
not have a ticket.
264
00:13:21,875 --> 00:13:23,708
- Jerry, what are you--
- Jerry West. Right on there.
265
00:13:23,791 --> 00:13:25,125
Thank you very
much for your help.
266
00:13:25,208 --> 00:13:27,291
- God, Jesus fuckin' Christ.
- What is this? What's going on?
267
00:13:27,375 --> 00:13:28,666
Well, it's
a last-minute thing.
268
00:13:28,750 --> 00:13:30,875
I'm doing a little,
uh, consulting,
269
00:13:30,958 --> 00:13:32,791
working on a, uh,
scouting problem for Buss.
270
00:13:32,875 --> 00:13:34,500
Well, the office didn't tell me
you were coming. I...
271
00:13:34,583 --> 00:13:36,666
Well, it must be right there.
It's a little, you know,
272
00:13:36,750 --> 00:13:38,333
mum's the word.
Don't wanna
ruffle any feathers.
273
00:13:38,416 --> 00:13:40,708
So, which seat am I in, Pat?
Sort this out, okay?
274
00:13:40,791 --> 00:13:42,750
- Don't leave me hanging.
Thank you for your help.
- Uh...
275
00:13:42,833 --> 00:13:44,666
- Next to Chick here?
- Uh,
276
00:13:44,750 --> 00:13:46,666
well, no, you can
have my seat.
277
00:13:46,750 --> 00:13:49,708
- Yeah? Where's that?
- That's, uh,
right by the toilet.
278
00:13:49,791 --> 00:13:53,458
- Over there. Coach.
- Down here in
the clown section, huh?
279
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,500
Hey, uh, Paul?
280
00:13:57,583 --> 00:14:00,500
Any clue why West is here?
He says he's on a scout.
281
00:14:03,083 --> 00:14:05,500
Are we making any
moves on personnel?
282
00:14:08,791 --> 00:14:11,541
I mean, if we drop this one
to Indiana, we might have to.
283
00:14:19,125 --> 00:14:21,000
Well, you weren't wrong
about your mother.
284
00:14:21,083 --> 00:14:23,250
She's one hell of an accountant.
Even her mistakes are good.
285
00:14:23,333 --> 00:14:25,541
- How's that, Claire?
- Three words.
286
00:14:25,625 --> 00:14:29,208
Depreciation of assets.
287
00:14:29,291 --> 00:14:30,833
We're gonna need
some more words.
288
00:14:30,916 --> 00:14:32,208
Okay. It's like this.
289
00:14:32,291 --> 00:14:34,708
Every team pays
their players as employees,
290
00:14:34,791 --> 00:14:37,250
but, according to the IRS,
they're also assets.
291
00:14:37,333 --> 00:14:40,125
Which means we should be able
to deduct their total value
292
00:14:40,208 --> 00:14:41,625
in depreciation over time.
293
00:14:41,708 --> 00:14:44,083
- Yeah, their salaries.
- No, we already write off
their salaries.
294
00:14:44,166 --> 00:14:45,625
That's just what they earn.
295
00:14:45,708 --> 00:14:47,625
The total value,
that's more murky.
296
00:14:47,708 --> 00:14:49,541
That's what they're worth.
Without these players,
297
00:14:49,625 --> 00:14:51,958
we don't have a team.
So, in that sense,
298
00:14:52,041 --> 00:14:53,791
their total value
to the business
299
00:14:53,875 --> 00:14:57,083
must be the total value
of the business.
300
00:14:57,166 --> 00:14:58,375
Everything you paid for it.
301
00:14:58,458 --> 00:15:01,541
- No.
- No fucking way. Impossible.
302
00:15:01,625 --> 00:15:03,000
Yet strangely legal,
303
00:15:03,083 --> 00:15:05,541
and maybe just enough
to save your ass.
304
00:15:05,625 --> 00:15:09,250
If we can keep winning
and make a playoff run,
305
00:15:09,333 --> 00:15:11,500
which, I guess you know,
is a pretty big if.
306
00:15:14,333 --> 00:15:15,708
Lakers here in Indiana
307
00:15:15,791 --> 00:15:17,833
on the first of a three-gameholiday season road trip
308
00:15:17,916 --> 00:15:19,958
against a strugglingPacers team.
309
00:15:20,041 --> 00:15:22,083
This should be as surea thing as a candy cane
310
00:15:22,166 --> 00:15:24,541
in your stockingChristmas morning.
311
00:15:28,083 --> 00:15:29,625
Yeah, they got us there, gang.
312
00:15:29,708 --> 00:15:31,458
But we gonna get'em the next one.
313
00:15:31,541 --> 00:15:35,083
We headin' to D-Town,
and we ain't losing in D-Town.
314
00:15:36,791 --> 00:15:38,666
You feel me? Go home,
315
00:15:38,750 --> 00:15:40,750
get me some of my
mama's home cooking.
316
00:15:40,833 --> 00:15:45,000
- And we gonna be a'ight.
317
00:15:45,083 --> 00:15:48,291
Hey! Magic Man! Sign these?
318
00:15:48,375 --> 00:15:51,541
- Larry's gonna eat your lunch.
319
00:15:51,625 --> 00:15:52,875
Hey, put the tits away.
320
00:15:52,958 --> 00:15:56,291
We'll see.
You tune in and find out.
321
00:15:56,375 --> 00:15:59,458
So, should we be nagging Coach
to give you some more minutes?
322
00:15:59,541 --> 00:16:02,166
Man, what I say? Huh?
Maybe if the coach put me in
323
00:16:02,250 --> 00:16:04,541
outside of garbage time,
gave me a real run,
324
00:16:04,625 --> 00:16:07,333
they wouldn't be gettin' beat
in the paint. That's for sure.
325
00:16:07,416 --> 00:16:09,750
- But that ain't on me.
326
00:16:10,916 --> 00:16:12,791
You can ask the
Nutty Professor though.
327
00:16:12,875 --> 00:16:14,166
Shit.
328
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,250
You fuckin' kidding me?
329
00:16:22,791 --> 00:16:23,875
Listen to me.
330
00:16:23,958 --> 00:16:25,666
That crossed
a fucking line, alright?
331
00:16:25,750 --> 00:16:26,875
He's been pushing you.
Alright?
332
00:16:26,958 --> 00:16:28,375
The other guys see you
walk away from this,
333
00:16:28,458 --> 00:16:30,708
- you're gonna be
a substitute forever.
- It's my fault.
334
00:16:30,791 --> 00:16:34,000
I heard something
a few weeks ago.
335
00:16:34,083 --> 00:16:37,958
I overreacted.
I benched him.
336
00:16:38,041 --> 00:16:41,041
it spiraled,
and now it's public.
337
00:16:41,125 --> 00:16:43,958
- But it's my fault.
- Alright, so?
338
00:16:44,041 --> 00:16:45,791
Talk to him.
339
00:16:45,875 --> 00:16:47,916
Tell him. Tell Spencer.
340
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:49,958
- Just apologize.
- That's your...
341
00:16:50,041 --> 00:16:51,875
That's your grand advice?
342
00:16:51,958 --> 00:16:53,750
They already treat me
like a pushover.
343
00:16:53,833 --> 00:16:56,208
These aren't fucking
college kids.
344
00:16:56,291 --> 00:16:58,000
Paul, these are men. Okay?
345
00:16:58,083 --> 00:17:02,041
They will respect you
if you treat them with respect.
346
00:17:02,125 --> 00:17:05,500
- Let him through,
let him through.
347
00:17:07,791 --> 00:17:10,916
I appreciate the insight, Pat.
348
00:17:27,333 --> 00:17:28,625
Shit.
349
00:17:33,875 --> 00:17:35,166
Well...
350
00:17:36,541 --> 00:17:38,166
Oh-for-one on the road trip.
351
00:17:38,250 --> 00:17:41,791
Are you still sure you wanna
bet it all on beating Boston?
352
00:17:43,875 --> 00:17:46,541
- How's your mother?
- She's pretending to be asleep.
353
00:17:46,625 --> 00:17:48,916
Landed on my best hotel
and conked right out.
354
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,458
A Monopoly man, huh?
355
00:17:51,541 --> 00:17:53,333
Yeah. You play?
356
00:17:53,416 --> 00:17:55,000
I used to when
the kids were young.
357
00:17:55,083 --> 00:17:57,375
And then, they decided
to stop playing with me
358
00:17:57,458 --> 00:17:59,750
because I guess I can be
a little competitive.
359
00:17:59,833 --> 00:18:01,458
- Mine started ganging up
360
00:18:01,541 --> 00:18:04,083
together with their mother
to beat me.
361
00:18:04,166 --> 00:18:06,000
I'd be out making
business deals all week.
362
00:18:06,083 --> 00:18:08,041
They'd be plotting how
to keep me off of Boardwalk.
363
00:18:08,125 --> 00:18:10,000
You know, I probably should've
let 'em win more often.
364
00:18:10,083 --> 00:18:11,958
Maybe we'd still be playing.
365
00:18:16,333 --> 00:18:18,000
You always think
there's gonna be a point
366
00:18:18,083 --> 00:18:19,583
where it's gonna
slow down, don't you?
367
00:18:22,041 --> 00:18:25,708
Now, we got two in college,
two more about to be in college.
368
00:18:25,791 --> 00:18:28,333
- And here's your vacation.
369
00:18:28,416 --> 00:18:30,625
Wanna play a game?
370
00:18:30,708 --> 00:18:32,791
If you think you can handle it.
371
00:18:32,875 --> 00:18:35,791
You don't strike me as
somebody who likes to lose.
372
00:18:35,875 --> 00:18:38,250
Oh, the top hat never loses.
373
00:18:38,333 --> 00:18:41,333
Not until he gets his ass
kicked by the shoe.
374
00:18:42,208 --> 00:18:43,791
Really?
375
00:18:44,875 --> 00:18:46,333
Clear off the Jell-O, hotshot.
376
00:18:46,416 --> 00:18:49,166
You're about to taste
the wrath of the top hat.
377
00:18:56,791 --> 00:18:59,541
Local Lansing heroEarvin "Magic" Johnson
378
00:18:59,625 --> 00:19:02,708
is back in Michigan tonight,and not just on your TVs,
379
00:19:02,791 --> 00:19:04,708
advertising shoes.
380
00:19:04,791 --> 00:19:06,416
Of course, with all
381
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:09,333
the fancy shit our boy'sbeen up to in LA,
382
00:19:09,416 --> 00:19:12,666
the question on everybody'smind, will Magic bother
383
00:19:12,750 --> 00:19:16,458
looking twice at his oldhomegirl Cookie Kelly?
384
00:19:16,541 --> 00:19:18,666
Or did he only sendher tickets to the game
385
00:19:18,750 --> 00:19:21,500
to rub her nose in itthat he's moved on,
386
00:19:21,583 --> 00:19:25,500
and she's a head case forstill carrying the torch?
387
00:19:25,583 --> 00:19:27,291
- Tune in--
388
00:19:27,375 --> 00:19:29,500
Girl, when you are married,
389
00:19:29,583 --> 00:19:31,958
you buying me a big old
diamond ring to match
390
00:19:32,041 --> 00:19:34,916
- for introducing you.
A finder's fee.
391
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,875
Honestly,
I don't even think
I'm interested.
392
00:19:39,458 --> 00:19:41,291
So, you ain't worried?
393
00:19:41,375 --> 00:19:42,250
Mm-mmm!
394
00:19:42,333 --> 00:19:43,583
Boy always had a wandering eye.
395
00:19:43,666 --> 00:19:45,250
Bet by now,
they fell right out his head,
396
00:19:45,333 --> 00:19:47,416
Then why he calling me then?
397
00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:48,916
Every night, out there in Cali.
398
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,041
Why'd he send
the last girl's daddy
399
00:19:51,125 --> 00:19:53,000
just so I would
show my face?
400
00:19:53,083 --> 00:19:55,875
Girl, I don't need no ring.
401
00:19:55,958 --> 00:19:59,041
I got that man wrapped
around my little finger.
402
00:19:59,125 --> 00:20:00,375
Okay, Cookie.
403
00:20:08,666 --> 00:20:10,250
- Over here!
- Yeah, it's good to be back.
404
00:20:10,333 --> 00:20:12,958
- Real good. Yeah. There you go.
405
00:20:16,375 --> 00:20:18,458
Yeah, no problem.
What's your name? Shawn?
406
00:20:18,541 --> 00:20:19,958
My name is Shawn.
It's nice to meet you!
407
00:20:20,041 --> 00:20:21,125
Hey, Shawn.
408
00:20:21,208 --> 00:20:23,625
Man, I got you.
Here you go.
409
00:20:23,708 --> 00:20:24,708
Thanks, man!
410
00:20:24,791 --> 00:20:27,166
Well, isn't he
the center of attention?
411
00:20:27,250 --> 00:20:29,333
Yeah yeah, he sure is.
412
00:20:29,416 --> 00:20:31,166
- You gonna be as good
as me one day.
- Thank you so much!
413
00:20:31,250 --> 00:20:33,166
- So cool.
- You're the best, Magic!
414
00:20:33,250 --> 00:20:36,208
I'm sorry, y'all.
I gotta go. Cook!
415
00:20:37,041 --> 00:20:40,208
Mm-mmm!
416
00:20:40,291 --> 00:20:43,083
You believe this?
Since we rode in.
417
00:20:43,166 --> 00:20:45,916
- Thought Stevie Wonder
must be in town, but no!
418
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,500
It's all for me.
419
00:20:49,875 --> 00:20:52,125
It's... something else.
420
00:20:52,208 --> 00:20:53,375
Ain't it?
421
00:20:55,250 --> 00:20:56,458
Hey, Rhonda.
422
00:20:56,541 --> 00:20:57,666
Hey.
423
00:20:57,750 --> 00:20:59,416
I missed you.
424
00:21:00,166 --> 00:21:01,500
Mm, stop.
425
00:21:01,583 --> 00:21:04,250
You stop lookin'
so good.
426
00:21:04,333 --> 00:21:06,583
Earleatha, darling,
you look ravishing!
427
00:21:06,666 --> 00:21:07,958
Dr. Day.
428
00:21:08,041 --> 00:21:10,166
Man from Buick
is here to see you.
429
00:21:10,250 --> 00:21:12,041
Oh, can it wait?
430
00:21:12,125 --> 00:21:13,625
Gonna see Pop
later on tonight,
431
00:21:13,708 --> 00:21:15,291
he was wanting
to talk it over.
432
00:21:15,375 --> 00:21:18,875
Best not. Bad idea to
keep these corporations waiting.
433
00:21:18,958 --> 00:21:21,166
Look-it, you want to get
the old man on the phone?
434
00:21:27,291 --> 00:21:30,625
Nah. Nah. You think
it's the real deal,
435
00:21:30,708 --> 00:21:32,291
- let's do it.
- Okay. Wise man.
436
00:21:32,375 --> 00:21:34,958
Excuse us for a minute, angels.
437
00:21:36,291 --> 00:21:38,458
I'll be right back, Cook.
- Mm-hm.
438
00:21:38,541 --> 00:21:41,666
I heard he picks some girls
out of the stands at every game.
439
00:21:41,750 --> 00:21:44,416
You should've worn
a brighter color.
440
00:21:44,500 --> 00:21:47,208
You could've wore
a disco ball, bitch.
441
00:21:53,125 --> 00:21:54,875
Come on, Cookie.
442
00:22:06,583 --> 00:22:09,000
Coach Riley.
Coach Riley.
443
00:22:10,083 --> 00:22:11,625
I'm Coach Riley.
444
00:22:21,541 --> 00:22:23,208
How you doin'? Ahem.
445
00:22:25,875 --> 00:22:28,541
What the fuck's this
motherfucker up to?
446
00:22:29,750 --> 00:22:32,250
Oh, wow. Hi. Hey, Jerry.
447
00:22:37,541 --> 00:22:40,875
- This Detroit?
- Yes, it is, Jerry. Hi.
448
00:22:40,958 --> 00:22:42,541
How's the scout coming?
449
00:22:42,625 --> 00:22:45,958
Uh-huh. Yeah, it's...
coming. Just, uh,
450
00:22:46,041 --> 00:22:49,208
just making sure we got
the personnel we need
to make a run.
451
00:22:54,458 --> 00:22:55,916
We're, uh...
452
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,833
we're turning it around.
453
00:22:58,916 --> 00:23:00,750
Just you watch.
454
00:23:00,833 --> 00:23:02,208
Mm-hmm.
455
00:23:08,083 --> 00:23:10,166
Mm. Hey, Jer.
456
00:23:11,083 --> 00:23:12,833
Eating my leftovers?
457
00:23:15,916 --> 00:23:18,833
- I'll leave you boys to it.
- Alright.
458
00:23:20,125 --> 00:23:22,833
Lay off the fuckin'
French fries.
459
00:23:25,208 --> 00:23:26,833
I like french fries.
460
00:23:26,916 --> 00:23:29,500
Don't sweat it, alright?
Come on. He's a busybody.
461
00:23:30,458 --> 00:23:32,583
Don't sweat it.
Anyway...
462
00:23:33,416 --> 00:23:35,458
God's smiling. Hm?
463
00:23:37,541 --> 00:23:39,541
Detroit's the pits
of the league.
464
00:23:40,375 --> 00:23:41,916
We got these suckers.
465
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,750
Well, folks, the Lakers arelooking to redeem themselves
466
00:23:44,833 --> 00:23:46,541
and move fromSanta's naughty list
467
00:23:46,625 --> 00:23:48,291
to something nicerwith a win tonight
468
00:23:48,375 --> 00:23:50,250
against the last placeDetroit Pistons.
469
00:23:50,333 --> 00:23:52,000
Shouldn't takea Christmas miracle
470
00:23:52,083 --> 00:23:53,875
to mark this one a W.
471
00:24:12,666 --> 00:24:14,875
Sent the bus to Lansing.
472
00:24:14,958 --> 00:24:17,791
I told them you
had family in town.
473
00:24:17,875 --> 00:24:19,708
I'm certainly glad I don't.
474
00:24:19,791 --> 00:24:21,166
It's one game. Hm?
475
00:24:21,250 --> 00:24:23,958
Who watches basketball
on Christmas?
476
00:24:25,708 --> 00:24:27,458
Shake it off
and function forward.
477
00:24:27,541 --> 00:24:29,500
Forward where?
478
00:24:29,583 --> 00:24:32,375
You said yourself
we're in the fucking pits.
479
00:24:32,458 --> 00:24:35,041
We just got blown out by the
worst team in the league, so...
480
00:24:35,125 --> 00:24:36,750
Well, not anymore.
481
00:24:37,541 --> 00:24:38,958
They beat us.
482
00:24:39,041 --> 00:24:41,458
Alright, we're sitting
on a pile of coal.
483
00:24:41,541 --> 00:24:43,500
We put on our big boy pants,
484
00:24:43,583 --> 00:24:46,375
we put our heads together,
and we press out
a diamond in Boston.
485
00:24:46,458 --> 00:24:47,625
What's gonna change?
486
00:24:48,541 --> 00:24:50,125
Huh? Me?
487
00:24:51,458 --> 00:24:52,916
Pat...
488
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,000
I'm not supposed to be here.
489
00:24:55,083 --> 00:24:57,708
It's Jack's team.
You're Jack's guy.
490
00:24:57,791 --> 00:25:00,583
And Jack's coming back,
right?
491
00:25:00,666 --> 00:25:02,333
Few more weeks.
492
00:25:06,750 --> 00:25:10,208
It's the dramatist in me.
You're right.
493
00:25:14,208 --> 00:25:17,375
Hey. You got plans
for Christmas? Huh?
494
00:25:17,458 --> 00:25:18,958
No.
495
00:25:19,041 --> 00:25:20,166
Yes, you do.
496
00:25:20,250 --> 00:25:21,625
Bringing in Chinese,
497
00:25:21,708 --> 00:25:23,208
we're drinking a six-pack,
498
00:25:23,291 --> 00:25:26,250
and we're figuring out how we're
going to ruin Boston's New Year.
499
00:25:26,333 --> 00:25:28,250
Huh?
500
00:25:28,333 --> 00:25:30,541
Yeah. Yeah. Alright.
501
00:25:30,625 --> 00:25:32,125
Fuck Boston.
502
00:25:41,875 --> 00:25:44,833
What that game was
is a lesson in humility.
503
00:25:44,916 --> 00:25:47,083
Showboating, fancy passes.
504
00:25:47,166 --> 00:25:48,500
No wonder you had
all those turnovers.
505
00:25:48,583 --> 00:25:50,458
Ma, you wasn't even there.
506
00:25:50,541 --> 00:25:52,291
I know my son.
507
00:25:52,375 --> 00:25:55,708
She was listening on the radio.
508
00:25:55,791 --> 00:25:58,458
Every game.
And you better believe it.
509
00:25:58,541 --> 00:26:01,500
So, I might tune in on occasion.
510
00:26:01,583 --> 00:26:04,333
- Let me talk to you.
511
00:26:04,416 --> 00:26:07,083
We gotta talk about
that Buick deal.
512
00:26:07,166 --> 00:26:08,500
Been doing some research.
513
00:26:08,583 --> 00:26:10,875
Not sure you wanna put
your name on them cars, son.
514
00:26:10,958 --> 00:26:14,791
Boys on the line been saying
quality is falling off.
515
00:26:16,666 --> 00:26:19,041
Look, Pop, uh, thing is...
516
00:26:19,125 --> 00:26:22,125
I actually already
signed the deal today.
517
00:26:22,208 --> 00:26:25,083
Dr. Day got it worked out
real good though.
518
00:26:25,166 --> 00:26:27,375
He did, huh?
519
00:26:27,458 --> 00:26:30,166
Told you he was
helping me, didn't I?
520
00:26:30,250 --> 00:26:33,041
- Yeah, you mentioned that.
- There's
the man of the hour.
521
00:26:33,125 --> 00:26:36,875
And... the man's old man.
522
00:26:36,958 --> 00:26:39,000
How you doin' there,
brother Earvin?
523
00:26:39,083 --> 00:26:41,666
You still
workin' the line?
524
00:26:41,750 --> 00:26:44,250
Honest pay
for an honest day.
525
00:26:44,333 --> 00:26:45,958
How's your daughter
doing though?
526
00:26:46,041 --> 00:26:47,291
- Hm?
- Oh.
527
00:26:47,375 --> 00:26:50,708
- She be blessed
and highly favored.
- Pop...
528
00:26:50,791 --> 00:26:53,875
- Blessed on her knees.
- Hey, Pop, Pop, Pop.
529
00:26:53,958 --> 00:26:56,458
Why don't you let us
talk some business?
530
00:26:56,541 --> 00:26:58,458
I thought that's
what we do together.
531
00:26:58,541 --> 00:27:01,166
Dr. Day been doing right by me!
532
00:27:01,250 --> 00:27:04,291
We building
Magic Johnson Enterprises.
533
00:27:05,416 --> 00:27:09,041
It's not Magic Johnson
on my mind.
534
00:27:09,125 --> 00:27:11,625
You got a lot of people
in your ear, son.
535
00:27:11,708 --> 00:27:14,791
Ain't many of them family.
You hear me?
536
00:27:14,875 --> 00:27:15,958
Yeah.
537
00:27:16,541 --> 00:27:17,541
Yeah.
538
00:27:19,791 --> 00:27:20,791
Hm?
539
00:27:21,458 --> 00:27:22,875
I hear you, Pop.
540
00:27:22,958 --> 00:27:25,708
I got this though.
541
00:27:25,791 --> 00:27:29,250
You gonna have the window
office right next to mine.
542
00:27:29,333 --> 00:27:31,083
Go get some of Mama's pie
or something, man.
543
00:27:31,166 --> 00:27:33,791
Stop talking
so much business.
544
00:27:33,875 --> 00:27:35,875
I didn't make the world.
I'm just saying the way it is,
545
00:27:35,958 --> 00:27:38,958
and Boston? Look, that...
546
00:27:39,041 --> 00:27:41,000
That fuckin' place
is worse than anywhere.
547
00:27:41,083 --> 00:27:44,416
Bill Russell won
the motherfuckers...
548
00:27:45,583 --> 00:27:47,166
11 rings!
549
00:27:47,250 --> 00:27:49,750
Comes home to his abodeto find the door open.
550
00:27:49,833 --> 00:27:51,416
They didn't evenhave the decency
551
00:27:51,500 --> 00:27:54,250
to burn a crosson this man's lawn.
552
00:27:54,333 --> 00:27:57,125
Just shit in his bed.Not dog shit neither.
553
00:27:57,208 --> 00:27:58,875
Man shit.
554
00:27:58,958 --> 00:28:00,291
Yeah...
555
00:28:00,375 --> 00:28:02,625
different kinda
white people over there.
556
00:28:02,708 --> 00:28:04,500
See, Boston Garden,
557
00:28:04,583 --> 00:28:07,958
brothers walk into that placeand you can feel it
558
00:28:08,041 --> 00:28:09,958
like a cold wind.
559
00:28:10,041 --> 00:28:12,916
You find yourself
running down the court,
560
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,250
tripping over thin air.
Go to dribble,
561
00:28:15,333 --> 00:28:17,875
ball don't bounce.
Just sticks there.
562
00:28:17,958 --> 00:28:20,208
Like a mud puddle.
563
00:28:20,291 --> 00:28:23,583
No logical explanation
to it neither. But then,
564
00:28:23,666 --> 00:28:25,916
you hear something.
565
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,125
- Like a little giggle.
566
00:28:28,208 --> 00:28:29,958
Take that, nigga!
567
00:28:32,625 --> 00:28:33,708
And it ain't ghosts.
568
00:28:33,791 --> 00:28:35,458
It's a leprechaun.
569
00:28:35,541 --> 00:28:38,791
I believe it.
I definitely believe it.
570
00:28:38,875 --> 00:28:40,541
Look at this
Buick contract here.
571
00:28:40,625 --> 00:28:42,541
See your name.
That's number one.
572
00:28:42,625 --> 00:28:44,166
- Mm-hmm.
- Your likeness?
573
00:28:44,250 --> 00:28:46,791
- Mm-hmm.
- Let's go right here.
See that right there?
574
00:28:46,875 --> 00:28:49,750
- Mm-hmm!
- Television. Commercial.
575
00:28:49,833 --> 00:28:52,166
United States and Europe.
576
00:28:52,250 --> 00:28:54,625
- International, boy.
577
00:28:54,708 --> 00:28:58,250
- You international.
That's international, boy!
- Yeah!
578
00:28:58,333 --> 00:28:59,750
Hold on, wait a minute.
579
00:28:59,833 --> 00:29:02,416
- Whoo! Yeah.
- We didn't get to
the best part yet.
580
00:29:03,500 --> 00:29:04,958
Ain't nobody makin'
581
00:29:05,041 --> 00:29:06,500
one more second...
582
00:29:06,583 --> 00:29:07,833
- that kinda money.
- Whoo!
583
00:29:07,916 --> 00:29:09,250
Big fella,
584
00:29:09,333 --> 00:29:11,000
let me know if you want seconds.
585
00:29:11,083 --> 00:29:12,625
These are thirds.
586
00:29:12,708 --> 00:29:15,291
What I need now is a recipe
587
00:29:15,375 --> 00:29:18,000
- before I eat you
out of house and home.
- Please.
588
00:29:18,083 --> 00:29:21,333
The great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar?
589
00:29:21,416 --> 00:29:23,375
More than welcome to it.
590
00:29:23,458 --> 00:29:26,458
Still smile to think of
my own son passing the ball
591
00:29:26,541 --> 00:29:29,500
to the greatest center
ever played the game.
592
00:29:29,583 --> 00:29:32,958
- No need for that.
- Hey. Truth is truth.
593
00:29:33,750 --> 00:29:35,041
He's not so bad himself.
594
00:29:36,416 --> 00:29:38,541
- No...
- What up!
595
00:29:38,625 --> 00:29:40,458
I guess he ain't.
596
00:29:40,541 --> 00:29:42,916
Can I ask you a question,
Mr. Johnson?
597
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,083
- Merry Christmas!
- Oh, yeah, here he is!
598
00:29:45,166 --> 00:29:46,291
Y'all enjoyin'
y'all selves?
599
00:29:46,375 --> 00:29:48,583
You can if you can cut
that Mr. Johnson crap
600
00:29:48,666 --> 00:29:50,791
and just call me Earvin.
601
00:29:52,041 --> 00:29:55,708
Your son.
Has he always been so...
602
00:29:57,541 --> 00:29:58,541
happy?
603
00:29:58,625 --> 00:30:00,708
Mm! Mm! Hey!
604
00:30:00,791 --> 00:30:02,750
Junior?
605
00:30:03,625 --> 00:30:06,083
Only since his first breath.
606
00:30:07,125 --> 00:30:09,375
Doctor slapped his ass,
607
00:30:09,458 --> 00:30:12,083
he turned around
and smiled back.
608
00:30:12,166 --> 00:30:13,291
Hey! You heard?
609
00:30:13,375 --> 00:30:15,583
- I can imagine.
- Yeah.
610
00:30:17,708 --> 00:30:19,583
Something on your chest,
Mr. Jabbar?
611
00:30:19,666 --> 00:30:21,000
Kareem.
612
00:30:21,708 --> 00:30:23,250
Kareem.
613
00:30:23,333 --> 00:30:25,666
I just can't say
I'm accustomed to it.
614
00:30:25,750 --> 00:30:28,708
Most men I know,
Black men,
615
00:30:29,416 --> 00:30:31,166
we laugh,
616
00:30:31,250 --> 00:30:34,708
enjoy our lives.
But, America does...
617
00:30:34,791 --> 00:30:37,458
things to
a man's mind and soul
618
00:30:37,541 --> 00:30:39,250
that aren't happy.
619
00:30:41,708 --> 00:30:44,916
Pardon my saying it,
but your son...
620
00:30:46,083 --> 00:30:49,291
- seems unaffected by all that.
- Mm.
621
00:30:49,375 --> 00:30:51,875
'Cause he is.
622
00:30:51,958 --> 00:30:54,250
- How?
- Wish I knew.
623
00:30:54,333 --> 00:30:56,916
I'm from Mississippi.
624
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,708
Down there, we're gator bait.
625
00:30:59,791 --> 00:31:03,208
Wasn't a week went by when
I was young ain't seen some...
626
00:31:10,250 --> 00:31:13,666
- Then you know.
- Too well. But he don't.
627
00:31:17,375 --> 00:31:18,916
Not like that.
628
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,583
And it
629
00:31:20,666 --> 00:31:24,708
feels like we ain't speaking
the same tongue sometimes but...
630
00:31:26,375 --> 00:31:29,958
then I think, hey,
maybe that's a blessing, too.
631
00:31:31,541 --> 00:31:34,083
When it don't scare me shitless.
632
00:31:36,583 --> 00:31:38,583
I'll whoop his ass
if he gets out of line.
633
00:31:38,666 --> 00:31:41,541
Yeah, no kidding, though...
634
00:31:41,625 --> 00:31:43,625
I want you to do just that.
635
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,416
Pull out some of
that karate shit.
636
00:31:46,500 --> 00:31:48,416
Got too many people
barking up his tree right now.
637
00:31:48,500 --> 00:31:50,833
He helping build
Magic Johnson Enterprises!
638
00:31:50,916 --> 00:31:53,291
You'd actually be
doing me a favor.
639
00:31:54,708 --> 00:31:56,500
Count on it.
640
00:31:56,583 --> 00:31:58,500
My man!
641
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,125
Hey, Rhonda!
642
00:32:05,041 --> 00:32:06,666
- Yo girl! What's up?
- Hey.
643
00:32:06,750 --> 00:32:07,750
How you doing?
Where Cookie at?
644
00:32:07,833 --> 00:32:09,333
You all was both
at the game, right?
645
00:32:09,416 --> 00:32:11,583
Guess she has
someplace else to be.
646
00:32:11,666 --> 00:32:13,833
Great game, though.
647
00:32:13,916 --> 00:32:16,291
- It was fun seeing you.
- Yeah.
648
00:32:16,375 --> 00:32:17,791
You, too.
649
00:32:17,875 --> 00:32:20,125
See you around, Rhonda.
650
00:32:29,500 --> 00:32:31,583
Remember what I said
about the Garden.
651
00:32:31,666 --> 00:32:33,500
Right? You're not just playing
the guys on the floor.
652
00:32:33,583 --> 00:32:35,750
- You're playing the arena.
653
00:32:35,833 --> 00:32:38,708
Playing the whole goddamn city.
654
00:32:38,791 --> 00:32:41,375
- Mm-hmm.
- You know. And the refs,
too, right?
655
00:32:41,458 --> 00:32:43,666
Because they're gonna give
the home team every call,
656
00:32:43,750 --> 00:32:45,583
and the crowd's
gonna go so nuts,
657
00:32:45,666 --> 00:32:47,166
it's going to seem
like they deserve it.
658
00:32:47,250 --> 00:32:50,541
So, you just gotta
stay on top of 'em.
659
00:32:50,625 --> 00:32:53,625
Huh?
Right from the tip.
660
00:32:55,958 --> 00:32:57,916
- Right, Paul?
661
00:32:59,208 --> 00:33:00,916
- Right?
662
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:02,333
- Right?
- Hm? Right.
663
00:33:02,416 --> 00:33:04,875
I heard you. Yeah.
664
00:33:04,958 --> 00:33:06,000
Work the tip.
665
00:33:06,083 --> 00:33:08,208
Work the refs!
Work the refs!
666
00:33:08,291 --> 00:33:10,291
I didn't say blow 'em!
667
00:33:10,375 --> 00:33:12,500
Hey, we got a chance here.
668
00:33:12,583 --> 00:33:15,791
Okay? Can win with this.
669
00:33:15,875 --> 00:33:17,875
- But not if they
get every foul call
670
00:33:17,958 --> 00:33:19,958
and spend the whole night
shooting free throws.
671
00:33:20,041 --> 00:33:22,833
You're the sixth man
on the floor.
Remember that.
672
00:33:25,541 --> 00:33:27,500
- Yup.
I have a call for Mr. West
673
00:33:27,583 --> 00:33:30,750
- from an Elgin Baylor.
- No, Mr. West is in another...
674
00:33:32,041 --> 00:33:33,625
Uh...
675
00:33:33,708 --> 00:33:36,833
- Actually, put it
through, please.
- Connecting.
676
00:33:36,916 --> 00:33:39,166
What you say there,Tweety Bird?
677
00:33:39,250 --> 00:33:42,750
Waiting on the red-eye,
but my flight's delayed.
678
00:33:44,958 --> 00:33:47,166
Elg. It's Pat.
679
00:33:47,250 --> 00:33:50,583
- What's up, man?
You got the wrong room.
- Riles!
680
00:33:50,666 --> 00:33:52,500
- What's happening?
- You know, just, uh,
681
00:33:52,583 --> 00:33:55,000
packing up for Boston.
What's up?
682
00:33:55,083 --> 00:33:58,333
Yeah. Zeke said you come down
to the bench to fill the void.
683
00:33:58,416 --> 00:34:00,041
Shouldn't be too long now.
684
00:34:00,125 --> 00:34:02,708
Be seeing Buss tomorrow,get you back on the mic
685
00:34:02,791 --> 00:34:04,750
with Chick where you belong.
686
00:34:04,833 --> 00:34:06,625
You mind telling ZekeI'm running late?
687
00:34:06,708 --> 00:34:08,291
I'm all outta dimes!
688
00:34:08,375 --> 00:34:09,875
Uh, yeah.
689
00:34:09,958 --> 00:34:12,333
Yeah, sure, Elg.
Bye.
690
00:34:12,416 --> 00:34:14,333
I'll see you in Boston!
691
00:34:32,041 --> 00:34:33,541
Elgin Baylor.
692
00:34:33,625 --> 00:34:37,208
Says he's flying out
to meet Buss.
693
00:34:37,291 --> 00:34:40,583
When did you know they were
looking for replacements?
694
00:34:40,666 --> 00:34:44,250
- Spit that shit out of
your mouth and answer me!
- Okay...
695
00:34:44,333 --> 00:34:46,625
I thought we had more time.
696
00:34:46,708 --> 00:34:49,208
- You know they
were talking to him?
- Somebody.
697
00:34:49,291 --> 00:34:51,625
- When you told me
to quit my job for this?
- I-I didn't...
698
00:34:51,708 --> 00:34:54,583
- I didn't think
that it was gonna--
- You--
699
00:34:54,666 --> 00:34:56,500
- You know they weren't
keeping Jack.
- No!
700
00:34:56,583 --> 00:34:58,791
- You knew it.
- No.
701
00:34:58,875 --> 00:35:00,416
Jack told me that Buss
was giving us a shot,
702
00:35:00,500 --> 00:35:02,500
- and that if we could
pull things out in Boston--
- Now what?
703
00:35:02,583 --> 00:35:05,750
- I go back to wandering
the fucking beach?!
- I needed you!
704
00:35:05,833 --> 00:35:07,666
Jack begged me.
705
00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:09,458
He's fighting for
his fucking life,
706
00:35:09,541 --> 00:35:11,708
and they're going to
take it away because of me!
707
00:35:11,791 --> 00:35:16,125
Because I cannot hack it
by myself! I can't!
708
00:35:16,208 --> 00:35:18,208
- But you...
- You fuckin' lied to me.
709
00:35:18,291 --> 00:35:20,541
Would you be here
if you knew that they were
710
00:35:20,625 --> 00:35:22,750
fucking sharpening
their knives?!
711
00:35:22,833 --> 00:35:25,666
No. You'd be staring
at Chick's fist!
712
00:35:25,750 --> 00:35:27,250
And what for, Pat?
713
00:35:27,333 --> 00:35:29,250
You are not an announcer.
714
00:35:29,333 --> 00:35:30,791
You are a coach!
715
00:35:31,708 --> 00:35:33,208
You're my coach.
716
00:35:33,291 --> 00:35:35,416
No, I'm your fucking nanny.
717
00:35:37,791 --> 00:35:38,916
You wanna coach?
718
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,500
- Please don't--
- You wanna fucking coach?
719
00:35:40,583 --> 00:35:42,416
I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
720
00:35:43,625 --> 00:35:45,125
- You wanna be a coach?!
- It's fucking cold!
721
00:35:45,208 --> 00:35:46,708
Huh? You wanna be a coach?
722
00:35:46,791 --> 00:35:48,916
- Yes, please...
- Good! Do something about it!
723
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,916
- Turn off the fucking water!
- Stand up!
724
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,000
Stand up for your fucking team!
You hear me? Stand up!
725
00:35:54,083 --> 00:35:56,541
- You wanna keep
this fucking job?
- Yes...
726
00:35:56,625 --> 00:35:58,500
- Do you wanna keep it?
- Yes.
727
00:35:58,583 --> 00:36:00,625
Then you fucking yell!
Yell it!
728
00:36:00,708 --> 00:36:01,875
Yes!
729
00:36:03,625 --> 00:36:05,833
There's your fucking
wakeup call!
730
00:36:06,583 --> 00:36:07,500
Now answer it!
731
00:36:19,083 --> 00:36:20,916
Fuck...
732
00:36:33,291 --> 00:36:34,958
Hey, I'm coming.
733
00:36:36,458 --> 00:36:38,041
Oh...
734
00:36:39,541 --> 00:36:41,375
What you doing here, Cook?
735
00:36:41,458 --> 00:36:43,000
You disappointed?
736
00:36:44,416 --> 00:36:47,250
You a little late.
737
00:36:47,333 --> 00:36:51,166
Yeah. I'm sorry
about last night.
738
00:36:51,250 --> 00:36:52,916
Didn't miss much anyway.
739
00:36:54,083 --> 00:36:55,875
Wish I coulda skipped
that game myself.
740
00:36:55,958 --> 00:36:57,583
Who said I did?
741
00:36:57,666 --> 00:36:59,625
Bought me a cheap seat.
742
00:36:59,708 --> 00:37:01,416
You ...
743
00:37:01,500 --> 00:37:03,166
You crazy, girl! Wha...
744
00:37:03,250 --> 00:37:05,791
Got you in first class
and everything!
745
00:37:05,875 --> 00:37:09,000
I woulda hit a couple
shots for you.
Instead, I be breaking 'em.
746
00:37:09,083 --> 00:37:10,291
Don't put that on me now.
747
00:37:10,375 --> 00:37:12,333
Just sayin'.
748
00:37:12,416 --> 00:37:13,500
Been missing you.
749
00:37:14,333 --> 00:37:16,000
Nah, don't start.
750
00:37:16,083 --> 00:37:18,875
You out there on another planet.
The world on a string.
751
00:37:18,958 --> 00:37:21,833
Just... What you need me for?
752
00:37:21,916 --> 00:37:24,125
Just to say you can?
753
00:37:24,208 --> 00:37:26,458
- Ain't like that, Cook.
- Then, what is it?
754
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,166
Because last night,
I was watching.
755
00:37:30,250 --> 00:37:32,416
Not the game. You.
756
00:37:32,500 --> 00:37:35,291
The way the world
moves around you.
757
00:37:35,375 --> 00:37:37,166
Big people, little people,
758
00:37:37,250 --> 00:37:39,666
just circling you like the Sun.
759
00:37:39,750 --> 00:37:41,166
And for you, it's...
760
00:37:41,250 --> 00:37:43,833
it's as natural
as breathing.
761
00:37:43,916 --> 00:37:45,541
And I just...
762
00:37:45,625 --> 00:37:48,375
don't know where
I fit in all that.
763
00:37:48,458 --> 00:37:49,958
Right here, Cook.
764
00:37:51,291 --> 00:37:53,291
With me.
765
00:37:53,375 --> 00:37:56,541
Until the bus leaves.
Then what?
766
00:37:58,125 --> 00:38:00,291
What am I to you?
767
00:38:00,375 --> 00:38:02,750
'Cause, honest to God, Earvin,
I don't have the first idea.
768
00:38:02,833 --> 00:38:04,458
- I'm tired--
- Cook!
769
00:38:07,625 --> 00:38:08,958
My girl.
770
00:38:14,500 --> 00:38:16,666
You family, Cook.
771
00:38:55,750 --> 00:38:58,708
I know.
That bus is waiting.
772
00:39:02,625 --> 00:39:04,250
Call you from Boston?
773
00:39:09,666 --> 00:39:12,625
- Once you whoop that
white boy's butt. Yeah.
- Mm.
774
00:39:16,166 --> 00:39:18,708
Okay. I'm gonna go.
775
00:39:18,791 --> 00:39:20,458
Mm-mmm.
You ain't going nowhere.
776
00:39:20,541 --> 00:39:23,458
- I gotta go.
- Alright, alright.
777
00:39:40,541 --> 00:39:42,125
Who was that?
778
00:39:45,791 --> 00:39:48,625
Uh... Teammate.
779
00:39:49,375 --> 00:39:51,666
- Oh.
- Yeah.
780
00:39:51,750 --> 00:39:52,875
They waitin'.
781
00:40:03,875 --> 00:40:06,208
Have a nice day.
Go fuck yourself.
782
00:40:08,166 --> 00:40:09,791
Lakers suck!
783
00:40:09,875 --> 00:40:11,958
You fuckin' suck, Magic!
784
00:40:12,041 --> 00:40:13,583
Don't even have a coach.
785
00:40:13,666 --> 00:40:16,000
Westhead sucks.
Get outta here!
786
00:40:16,083 --> 00:40:18,750
Kareem, you are
fucked as shit.
787
00:40:18,833 --> 00:40:20,250
Welcome to Boston.
788
00:40:20,333 --> 00:40:22,375
Larry is gonna kill you guys.
789
00:40:22,458 --> 00:40:23,500
Bunch of pricks.
790
00:40:25,083 --> 00:40:27,208
Paul Revere shoulda slept in.
791
00:40:28,375 --> 00:40:29,666
Let the British burn
792
00:40:29,750 --> 00:40:32,000
this fuck-hole
to the ground.
793
00:40:32,083 --> 00:40:34,458
When does Elgin
need an answer?
794
00:40:34,541 --> 00:40:37,791
Tonight.
He's sitting on another offer.
795
00:40:37,875 --> 00:40:41,458
Yeah. The fact is,
we waited long enough.
796
00:40:41,541 --> 00:40:43,750
- Sooner we cut--
- We? Who's we, Jerry?
797
00:40:43,833 --> 00:40:46,166
Okay, okay, fine. Your team.
798
00:40:48,125 --> 00:40:50,291
Jack McKinney beat me
at Monopoly.
799
00:40:50,375 --> 00:40:52,833
- It's a kid's game.
- It's a game of strategy.
800
00:40:52,916 --> 00:40:55,833
He kicked my ass.
801
00:40:55,916 --> 00:40:58,500
Guy can't tie
his fucking shoe...
802
00:41:01,041 --> 00:41:02,416
Nobody beats me at Monopoly.
803
00:41:02,500 --> 00:41:03,791
Okay...
804
00:41:03,875 --> 00:41:05,083
Except my mother.
805
00:41:05,166 --> 00:41:06,875
- She's the only fucking one.
- Okay, look, Doc,
806
00:41:06,958 --> 00:41:08,375
I fucking-- I get it, okay?
I understand
807
00:41:08,458 --> 00:41:10,250
this is the shit
part of the gig.
808
00:41:10,333 --> 00:41:12,291
Working the guillotine.
809
00:41:12,375 --> 00:41:13,708
Do you know why
we lost to Boston
810
00:41:13,791 --> 00:41:16,041
all those years?
My team, my team.
811
00:41:17,125 --> 00:41:18,833
Because we lost the first one.
812
00:41:18,916 --> 00:41:21,541
Had a better squad,
more talent.
813
00:41:21,625 --> 00:41:24,541
But, we let it get away from us.
814
00:41:24,625 --> 00:41:27,000
Once.
And that shit stays with you
815
00:41:27,083 --> 00:41:29,875
like a stink inside
a fuckin' jersey.
816
00:41:29,958 --> 00:41:32,083
You let that happen here,
817
00:41:32,166 --> 00:41:34,666
you can't wash it out.
818
00:41:36,791 --> 00:41:39,708
Ah. Home, sweet home.
819
00:41:41,750 --> 00:41:43,416
Well, thanks for
the pep talk, Jerry.
820
00:41:44,458 --> 00:41:46,291
I'm staying in
the fucking car.
821
00:41:46,375 --> 00:41:48,708
I reckoned.
822
00:41:50,083 --> 00:41:51,958
Oh my god, is that blood?
823
00:41:53,708 --> 00:41:56,333
- What the fuck is that?!
824
00:41:56,416 --> 00:41:57,875
Told you, motherfucker.
825
00:41:57,958 --> 00:41:59,750
Leprechaun.
826
00:41:59,833 --> 00:42:01,458
'Cause he's comin' for you!
827
00:42:01,541 --> 00:42:03,541
Fuck this, man.
828
00:42:34,041 --> 00:42:36,000
Yo, what's up, Larry?
829
00:42:39,833 --> 00:42:41,833
Let's get this shit over.
830
00:42:41,916 --> 00:42:43,875
Larry! Larry! Larry, over here!
831
00:42:43,958 --> 00:42:45,333
- Still mad, I see.
- Larry!
832
00:42:45,416 --> 00:42:47,250
Larry! Question!
833
00:42:47,333 --> 00:42:49,916
- What'd you eat before the game?
- Food.
834
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,916
- Larry, who's gonna guard you?
- Who cares?
835
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,166
- Larry, what's your prediction?
- We're gonna win.
836
00:42:54,250 --> 00:42:56,000
Larry, what do you wanna
say about the game?
837
00:42:56,083 --> 00:42:58,083
- We're gonna play the game.
- Larry, you gonna win tonight?
838
00:42:58,166 --> 00:43:01,166
- Yep.
- Aw, come on. Any jitters?
839
00:43:01,250 --> 00:43:02,541
- Nope.
- Magic! Magic!
840
00:43:02,625 --> 00:43:04,416
What do you think about Larry?
841
00:43:04,500 --> 00:43:07,750
- You thinkin' about
the strategy, Larry?
- Just another game.
842
00:43:08,708 --> 00:43:10,666
Gonna be a good one though.
843
00:43:10,750 --> 00:43:13,666
Two great teams. Great rivals.
844
00:43:13,750 --> 00:43:15,708
That don't get you goin',
you ain't got a pulse.
845
00:43:19,875 --> 00:43:23,083
I'm gonna rip your
fucking ass a new hole.
846
00:43:25,916 --> 00:43:27,666
One more! Larry! Lar!
847
00:43:38,083 --> 00:43:40,083
Dude don't say two words.
848
00:43:40,166 --> 00:43:41,791
Don't smile.
849
00:43:41,875 --> 00:43:44,083
Don't even try.
850
00:43:44,166 --> 00:43:45,500
And they love him anyway.
851
00:43:45,583 --> 00:43:47,500
Like I ain't even there.
852
00:43:50,750 --> 00:43:52,166
The Invisible Man.
853
00:43:52,250 --> 00:43:54,208
Just like the movie.
854
00:43:55,916 --> 00:43:57,000
There's a book, too.
855
00:43:57,083 --> 00:43:59,458
Point remains.
Hard for them to see you
856
00:43:59,541 --> 00:44:02,375
- when they're blinded
by the white.
- But that's the thing!
857
00:44:02,458 --> 00:44:04,041
I'm the dude that they did see!
858
00:44:04,125 --> 00:44:07,208
Bused me to an all-white school.
I ain't wanna go!
859
00:44:07,291 --> 00:44:10,166
But I ain't about to
let that stop me neither!
860
00:44:10,250 --> 00:44:12,250
So I made me somebody they see.
861
00:44:12,333 --> 00:44:13,958
You have a knack for that.
862
00:44:14,041 --> 00:44:15,625
Cap, I'm...
863
00:44:17,375 --> 00:44:19,125
Look, I know you ain't about it.
864
00:44:19,208 --> 00:44:21,333
I know you all
think I'm fake.
865
00:44:21,416 --> 00:44:23,375
And I don't know, Cap, may--
866
00:44:24,875 --> 00:44:27,791
Maybe you right.
Maybe you all are right.
867
00:44:27,875 --> 00:44:29,916
I should just stick
to playing ball.
868
00:44:30,041 --> 00:44:31,375
- Maybe.
- Yep.
869
00:44:32,500 --> 00:44:34,000
Or...
870
00:44:34,083 --> 00:44:36,166
you could go out there
and beat his ass.
871
00:44:36,250 --> 00:44:38,500
What?
872
00:44:38,583 --> 00:44:39,833
They gonna love me then?
873
00:44:39,916 --> 00:44:42,708
Fuck. No.
874
00:44:42,791 --> 00:44:46,541
They'll double down
on his greatness.
875
00:44:46,625 --> 00:44:48,583
And they'll whisper yours.
876
00:44:48,666 --> 00:44:51,333
If they say anything at all.
877
00:44:52,083 --> 00:44:53,208
Thing is...
878
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,041
that silence?
879
00:44:57,125 --> 00:44:58,958
That's not invisibility.
880
00:45:01,583 --> 00:45:04,083
It's power.
881
00:45:08,958 --> 00:45:11,625
Cap, we need straight-up
fundamental defense in the post.
882
00:45:11,708 --> 00:45:13,625
You are not gonna have
help on the weak side.
883
00:45:13,708 --> 00:45:16,250
And here's why. This is key.
884
00:45:16,333 --> 00:45:19,625
Every time Bird
touches the ball,
885
00:45:19,708 --> 00:45:22,625
- we want an instant trap.
- Don't let him get a shot off.
886
00:45:22,708 --> 00:45:24,875
- Get the fuck outta here.
887
00:45:24,958 --> 00:45:26,666
What? What's so funny?
888
00:45:26,750 --> 00:45:28,083
- Is there a problem, guys?
- Bird.
889
00:45:28,166 --> 00:45:30,541
Yeah, I know. That's why
we're gonna double.
890
00:45:30,625 --> 00:45:33,750
Nah, man. Problem is y'all
act like he's God's gift.
891
00:45:33,833 --> 00:45:35,750
Cracker can't even jump.
Slow as snail shit.
892
00:45:35,833 --> 00:45:37,916
Potsie over there
can lock his ass down.
893
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,708
I don't know, man.
I think Bird's the real deal.
894
00:45:39,791 --> 00:45:41,083
Aw, man, shut your ass up.
895
00:45:41,166 --> 00:45:42,541
Me and Country gonna
switch off, pick-to-pick,
896
00:45:42,625 --> 00:45:45,458
- split him between us.
- Mm-mmm. Not tonight.
897
00:45:45,541 --> 00:45:47,666
- He mine.
- Hey, listen up to
your coach. Come on.
898
00:45:47,750 --> 00:45:51,125
Listen, that is the--
the can-do attitude
that we need.
899
00:45:51,208 --> 00:45:52,541
It is.
900
00:45:52,625 --> 00:45:54,041
But, it is not the game plan.
901
00:45:54,125 --> 00:45:56,166
Fuck the game plan.
902
00:45:56,250 --> 00:45:57,500
I got him, Coach!
903
00:45:57,583 --> 00:45:59,500
Everybody's scared
of goddamn Larry Bird!
904
00:45:59,583 --> 00:46:02,583
- I beat him before,
I'll beat him again!
905
00:46:02,666 --> 00:46:06,625
Yo, we need to focus up!
Everyone needs to focus up
right now.
906
00:46:22,083 --> 00:46:24,583
Well...
907
00:46:24,666 --> 00:46:26,458
Nice seats.
908
00:46:26,541 --> 00:46:28,208
Red knows how
to treat a guest.
909
00:46:28,291 --> 00:46:30,625
Mr. Auerbach can't make
it up to see youse guys.
910
00:46:30,708 --> 00:46:33,333
He sent you this
with his regards.
911
00:46:34,458 --> 00:46:36,208
Is it gonna explode?
912
00:46:36,291 --> 00:46:38,708
Red wouldn't blow up anything
he'd have to pay for.
913
00:46:38,791 --> 00:46:40,708
Alright, I'll bite.
914
00:46:40,791 --> 00:46:42,583
It's a vegetable.
915
00:46:42,666 --> 00:46:44,416
Like your coach.
916
00:46:44,500 --> 00:46:46,291
Welcome to the Garden.
917
00:46:48,291 --> 00:46:50,416
- Very funny.
918
00:47:14,541 --> 00:47:16,375

924
00:47:28,083 --> 00:47:29,833
- Team!

925
00:47:32,333 --> 00:47:34,375

926
00:47:35,291 --> 00:47:37,458

927
00:47:37,541 --> 00:47:39,083
Alright, fellas, let's go!
928
00:47:43,791 --> 00:47:46,083
Gonna wipe that smile
off your face.
929
00:47:51,958 --> 00:47:54,625
- What's up, Larry?
- Let's go! Let's go!
930
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,416
- Welcome to Boston.
- Gonna make this is my house.
931
00:48:01,375 --> 00:48:02,958
- Fucker.
932
00:48:03,041 --> 00:48:04,291
Yes!
933
00:48:04,375 --> 00:48:05,625
Lakers draw first blood
934
00:48:05,708 --> 00:48:07,041
but here comes Larry Bird.
935
00:48:07,125 --> 00:48:08,416
Trap, trap, trap!
936
00:48:08,500 --> 00:48:10,083
And he walksright into a trap.
937
00:48:10,166 --> 00:48:12,458
Magic with the steal.
938
00:48:12,541 --> 00:48:15,375
To Cooper.Slam dunk!
939
00:48:15,458 --> 00:48:17,166
And the Lakerscome out swinging,
940
00:48:17,250 --> 00:48:19,458
but the boys from Bostonwill make this one a contest.
941
00:48:19,541 --> 00:48:21,916
If that's the Lakers'best shot, good riddance.
942
00:48:23,583 --> 00:48:25,333
- D up!
- Come on, let's go!
943
00:48:25,416 --> 00:48:28,250
Okay, fuckers, y'all can't
stop me, so I'll tell you
what I'm about to do.
944
00:48:28,333 --> 00:48:31,333
Fake left, drive right,
jumper from 12. No rim.
945
00:48:35,458 --> 00:48:37,708
- Fuck.
946
00:48:40,208 --> 00:48:41,875
Shit, think that was 13.
947
00:48:41,958 --> 00:48:44,666
- That leprechaun's for real.
- You're looking at him.
948
00:48:44,750 --> 00:48:46,166
Get ready,you Hollywood pansies,
949
00:48:46,250 --> 00:48:47,583
- Fuck!
- ...here comes...
950
00:48:47,666 --> 00:48:49,166
Fuckin' had enough
of this fuckin' shit.
951
00:48:49,250 --> 00:48:52,541
Just fucking breathe,
Jerry, breathe...
952
00:48:54,500 --> 00:48:56,500
- Good!
- Wicked shooter, huh?
953
00:48:56,583 --> 00:48:59,333
Oh! F... Fucking motherfucking
954
00:48:59,416 --> 00:49:01,000
- son of a fucking bitch!
955
00:49:01,083 --> 00:49:04,083
I shoulda fucking known!
Somebody fucking
settin' me up here!
956
00:49:04,166 --> 00:49:06,166
Abdul-Jabbaron the fast break.
957
00:49:06,250 --> 00:49:07,625
Team one for Chaney.
958
00:49:07,708 --> 00:49:09,125
I tell you, these refsmust be blind.
959
00:49:09,208 --> 00:49:10,791
Another good no-call
by the officials! Ha!
960
00:49:10,875 --> 00:49:13,458
Motherfucker!
What is you doing?
961
00:49:13,541 --> 00:49:15,833
- Use the goddamn whistle!
- Please, ref. Please!
962
00:49:18,500 --> 00:49:21,666
Fuckin' fuckin' fuck!
963
00:49:21,750 --> 00:49:23,875
And this is justan abomination.
964
00:49:23,958 --> 00:49:25,750
Jamaal takinga football blow.
965
00:49:25,833 --> 00:49:27,750
Somehow,no whistle from the refs.
966
00:49:27,833 --> 00:49:29,000
Absolutely despicable.
967
00:49:29,083 --> 00:49:30,583
...not letting the Lakers
get away with dirty tricks.
968
00:49:34,666 --> 00:49:37,041
Nixon trippedand takes a header.
969
00:49:37,125 --> 00:49:38,291
Not a whistle to be heard.
970
00:49:38,375 --> 00:49:40,000
Boy, if I didn'tknow any better,
971
00:49:40,083 --> 00:49:41,916
I'd say these refswere on the Boston payroll.
972
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:43,416
Call it,
call the fuckin'--
973
00:49:43,500 --> 00:49:46,166
This is the best officiatedgame in years!
974
00:49:46,250 --> 00:49:48,333
This cornbread
motherfucker--
975
00:49:48,416 --> 00:49:50,333
Cooper trips over his feet.
976
00:49:50,416 --> 00:49:52,500
These Lakers are lookingawfully clumsy tonight.
977
00:49:52,583 --> 00:49:54,291
Officials are swallowingtheir whistles once again.
978
00:49:54,375 --> 00:49:58,000
Shut down the fuckin' act,
you motherfucker!
979
00:49:58,083 --> 00:50:00,666
Johnson looking desperateunder the rim.
980
00:50:00,750 --> 00:50:03,041
Open your fuckin' eyes!
981
00:50:03,125 --> 00:50:04,125
He's on his arm!
982
00:50:04,208 --> 00:50:06,041
And Johnson hits the deck,
983
00:50:06,125 --> 00:50:07,833
making a show of itfor the officials
984
00:50:07,916 --> 00:50:09,583
but they're not buyingwhat he's selling.
985
00:50:09,666 --> 00:50:10,958
Fuckin' call it!
986
00:50:11,041 --> 00:50:12,416
Goddamn it.
987
00:50:12,500 --> 00:50:14,666
This fiddle-faddle officiating
may cost the Lakers the game.
988
00:50:14,750 --> 00:50:16,791
But the refs call itlike they see it
989
00:50:16,875 --> 00:50:19,958
and what they see is good,clean fun from Boston.
990
00:50:22,166 --> 00:50:23,416
Another--
991
00:50:23,500 --> 00:50:24,750
It's just a fuckin' game, Jerry.
992
00:50:24,833 --> 00:50:26,708
Nothing but net!
993
00:50:26,791 --> 00:50:29,291
Boston boy is on fire tonight!
994
00:50:29,375 --> 00:50:31,750
Go home, you fuckin' pussies!
995
00:50:31,833 --> 00:50:33,625
Third quarter,and the Celtics...
996
00:50:33,708 --> 00:50:35,583
- God fuck.
- ...for a commanding lead.
997
00:50:35,666 --> 00:50:37,916
If substitute coachPaul Westhead
998
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,375
wants to provehe's not just wearing diapers,
999
00:50:40,458 --> 00:50:42,500
now's his chanceto put on big-boy pants
1000
00:50:42,583 --> 00:50:44,375
and raise his hand.
1001
00:50:44,458 --> 00:50:47,000
You gotta make a sub.
Make a sub.
1002
00:50:53,416 --> 00:50:54,958
Wood.
1003
00:50:56,541 --> 00:50:59,208
After an onslaught ofegregious uncalled fouls
1004
00:50:59,291 --> 00:51:01,875
for the boys in green,Spencer Haywoodhas had enough.
1005
00:51:01,958 --> 00:51:03,875
He's gonnaclean it up himself, folks.
1006
00:51:03,958 --> 00:51:05,625
Johnson passes to Haywood.
1007
00:51:05,708 --> 00:51:07,458
Haywood witha hand-off to Nixon.
1008
00:51:07,541 --> 00:51:09,833
Nixon, jumper. It's good!
1009
00:51:11,958 --> 00:51:13,666
Bird hooks by Coopwith an elbow.
1010
00:51:13,750 --> 00:51:16,791
No call. Oh!He ran into a brick wallin Spencer Haywood.
1011
00:51:16,875 --> 00:51:19,541
- Boom!
- The dropped shoulderlaid Bird on his back!
1012
00:51:19,625 --> 00:51:22,416
Bird looks like he's hadjust about enough of this.
1013
00:51:22,500 --> 00:51:24,500
...Bird chucks the ball atSpencer, throwing a tantrum.
1014
00:51:24,583 --> 00:51:25,958
Punches are being thrown.
1015
00:51:26,041 --> 00:51:27,666
The Celticsare throwing punches.
1016
00:51:27,750 --> 00:51:30,333
We've got fisticuffs, folks.
The benches are clear.
1017
00:51:30,416 --> 00:51:32,750
The Celtics are absolutelyout of control.
1018
00:51:34,500 --> 00:51:36,250
The Lakers are acting
like hoodlums, hoodlums!
1019
00:51:36,333 --> 00:51:39,333
- And here's a latewhistle from the officials.
1020
00:51:39,416 --> 00:51:41,166
Technical foul
on Spencer Haywood.
1021
00:51:41,250 --> 00:51:43,250
It's a technical
on Spencer Haywood.
1022
00:51:43,333 --> 00:51:44,333
Well, I cannotbelieve my eyes.
1023
00:51:44,416 --> 00:51:46,083
No! That was 33!
Come on, ref!
1024
00:51:46,166 --> 00:51:49,041
You gotta get in there!
Hey! Hey, Earl!
1025
00:51:49,125 --> 00:51:51,458
You blind fuck!
Now, you see us,
do you, huh?
1026
00:51:51,541 --> 00:51:53,958
Now--
Halle-fucking-lujah!
1027
00:51:54,041 --> 00:51:56,500
- It's a miracle.
- Welcome back, Pat.
1028
00:51:56,583 --> 00:51:59,125
- Enjoy your first tech.
1029
00:52:09,541 --> 00:52:12,708
Bravo! At least
he fucking earned it!
1030
00:52:12,791 --> 00:52:14,833
That's your first
honest call of the night!
1031
00:52:14,916 --> 00:52:17,750
Watch it, Coach!
I'm about to throw you
out of this game.
1032
00:52:17,833 --> 00:52:19,833
You've been
screwing us all night!
1033
00:52:19,916 --> 00:52:22,000
- What did you say?
- Paul. That's enough!
1034
00:52:22,083 --> 00:52:24,208
I said I was screwing
your wife last night!
1035
00:52:24,291 --> 00:52:26,625
- Shit!
1036
00:52:26,708 --> 00:52:28,208
You're outta here!
1037
00:52:28,291 --> 00:52:30,166
It's okay. It's okay.
1038
00:52:30,250 --> 00:52:32,791
You're up, Coach.
1039
00:52:32,875 --> 00:52:36,000
Hey, Riley!
Eat a bag of dicks, ya bitch!
1040
00:52:37,750 --> 00:52:39,916
- Fuck Boston!
1041
00:52:42,791 --> 00:52:44,958
Bring it in!
Calm down!
1042
00:52:45,041 --> 00:52:46,875
Shh. Take a breath.
1043
00:52:48,750 --> 00:52:51,125

00:52:58,250 --> 00:53:01,083
- Get out there
and kick their ass!
- Whoo!
1048
00:53:01,166 --> 00:53:03,583
The Lakers are fed up,fired up,
1049
00:53:03,666 --> 00:53:04,958
and they're fighting mad.
1050
00:53:05,041 --> 00:53:06,583
- Yes!
1051
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,041
And a tone-shift hashappened for the Lakers here.
1052
00:53:12,125 --> 00:53:13,625
They have reclaimedthe momentum,
1053
00:53:13,708 --> 00:53:16,333
and Westheadis looking commandingon the sidelines.
1054
00:53:16,416 --> 00:53:19,208
One blown call after another
and the officials have let
1055
00:53:19,291 --> 00:53:21,375
the Lakers make a game of it!
1056
00:53:29,291 --> 00:53:31,750
Alright, out of the time-out,Lakers take the floor.
1057
00:53:31,833 --> 00:53:33,666
Let's see what ProfessorWesthead's come up with.
1058
00:53:33,750 --> 00:53:34,958
Come on, Larry,

1059
00:53:35,041 --> 00:53:36,625
Eat his stinkin' shit,
Lakers!
1060
00:53:36,708 --> 00:53:38,125
Keeping it inbound,right side.
1061
00:53:38,208 --> 00:53:40,416
Referee hands him the ball,looking for a place to go.
1062
00:53:40,500 --> 00:53:43,125
He finds Magic top of the team.Magic at the three-point line,
1063
00:53:43,208 --> 00:53:44,958
dribbling up and downlike a yo-yo.
1064
00:53:45,041 --> 00:53:47,333
Magic surveying the floor.There's nowhere to go with it.
1065
00:53:47,416 --> 00:53:48,958
The clock is winding down.Ten seconds.
1066
00:53:49,041 --> 00:53:51,333
Coop, set the pick!
1067
00:53:51,416 --> 00:53:53,416
Magic makes a move,loses Bird.
1068
00:53:53,500 --> 00:53:55,583
No-look to Cooper. Hit hard.
1069
00:53:55,666 --> 00:53:58,125
Throws up a prayer...
1070
00:54:02,833 --> 00:54:04,250
Off the iron...
1071
00:54:04,333 --> 00:54:06,958

1082
00:54:33,541 --> 00:54:34,958
Boy, oh, boy
is this crowd silent.
1083
00:54:42,458 --> 00:54:43,666
Aw, fuck!
1084
00:54:48,416 --> 00:54:52,125

1085
00:54:52,208 --> 00:54:54,791

1087
00:54:57,458 --> 00:54:59,458

- Leave me the fuck alone.
1088
00:54:59,541 --> 00:55:01,291
Larry, any comment
on the game?
1089
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:03,916
He mad, y'all.
1090
00:55:06,125 --> 00:55:08,250
Ha, ha. Unbelievable.
1091
00:55:08,333 --> 00:55:10,166
Wherever Jack McKinney iswatching, I hope he's proud
1092
00:55:10,250 --> 00:55:13,458
of his team and proudof Paul Westhead right now.
1093
00:55:15,166 --> 00:55:17,250
Signs of life last nightfor the Lakers
1094
00:55:17,333 --> 00:55:19,333
as they managedto defeat the Celtics
1095
00:55:19,416 --> 00:55:21,500
on their turf in Boston.
1096
00:55:30,083 --> 00:55:31,166
Big win.
1097
00:55:33,208 --> 00:55:34,291
Barely.
1098
00:55:43,750 --> 00:55:45,750
If I wait for you,
1099
00:55:45,833 --> 00:55:47,958
and you don't make it back...
1100
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:53,541
then I'm stuck with Westhead.
1101
00:55:53,625 --> 00:55:56,500
And I'm not gonna win
a title with him, am I?
1102
00:56:01,125 --> 00:56:02,458
No.
1103
00:56:03,333 --> 00:56:05,125
That's what I thought.
1104
00:56:23,750 --> 00:56:26,333
We're not done
playing yet, Jack.
1105
00:56:34,833 --> 00:56:36,250
Fuck Boston.
