00:00:09,344 --> 00:00:10,984
- [indistinct banging]
- [woman screaming]
2
00:00:13,181 --> 00:00:15,850
[man] Come here, bitch!
Get back in here!
3
00:00:15,934 --> 00:00:17,435
[arguing continues]
4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:19,812
[woman] He was my son too.
5
00:00:19,896 --> 00:00:22,357
[man] Bullshit! Your son is breathing!
6
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,526
He's not rottin' in a box
in the front room.
7
00:00:24,609 --> 00:00:27,529
Damn it, I wish them gooks
had killed you both instead!
8
00:00:27,612 --> 00:00:29,132
[woman] Leave me alone and go to hell!
9
00:00:29,197 --> 00:00:31,366
[man] Your son is still alive out there,
10
00:00:31,449 --> 00:00:34,089
- just sniveling like some bleeding mutt!
- [woman] Don't touch me!
11
00:00:34,118 --> 00:00:36,180
[man] He's going nowhere.
He never will. He's a nobody.
12
00:00:36,204 --> 00:00:37,789
He's not my son. He's yours.
13
00:00:37,872 --> 00:00:39,499
- Bitch! Come here!
- [glass shattering]
14
00:00:41,709 --> 00:00:44,629
[man] Come back here, you bitch!
I'll get your ass!
15
00:00:45,213 --> 00:00:46,839
You're next! I said, come back here!
16
00:00:46,923 --> 00:00:48,925
[woman] Leave me alone, don't touch me!
17
00:00:49,050 --> 00:00:51,386
[shouting continues]
18
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:55,473
[woman] Get away from me!
19
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,267
[shouting fades]
20
00:01:04,315 --> 00:01:07,360
[commentator] Lakers win!
Lakers win! Lakers win!
21
00:01:07,443 --> 00:01:10,738
And Jerry West, long denied,
is finally a champion.
22
00:01:10,822 --> 00:01:14,325
My goodness, after all those years
and all those losses,
23
00:01:14,409 --> 00:01:16,452
here he is, in the Promised Land.
24
00:01:16,536 --> 00:01:19,872
And, Lakers fans,
he must be on top of the world.
25
00:01:19,956 --> 00:01:23,209
[audience] Lakers! Lakers! Lakers...
26
00:01:35,388 --> 00:01:37,508
- [woman] I'll have another.
- [bartender] Sure thing.
27
00:01:39,392 --> 00:01:40,685
[woman sighs]
28
00:01:45,273 --> 00:01:47,150
Still doesn't feel real, does it?
29
00:01:53,364 --> 00:01:54,532
I was just thinking that.
30
00:01:56,492 --> 00:01:58,036
I'm really going to miss him.
31
00:02:00,371 --> 00:02:01,581
Huh?
32
00:02:03,458 --> 00:02:04,459
Bob?
33
00:02:10,923 --> 00:02:12,175
Oh.
34
00:02:12,967 --> 00:02:16,429
[West] Fuck, Jerry.
I'm sorry. I'm here alone.
35
00:02:17,472 --> 00:02:18,681
I didn't know him.
36
00:02:20,433 --> 00:02:21,976
Oh, I just...
37
00:02:24,145 --> 00:02:25,647
You looked like one of us.
38
00:02:31,402 --> 00:02:33,363
I'm sorry for your loss.
39
00:02:34,781 --> 00:02:36,032
[woman] I'm sorry for yours.
40
00:02:38,117 --> 00:02:39,369
Whatever it is.
41
00:02:41,579 --> 00:02:42,622
I actually...
42
00:02:43,414 --> 00:02:45,583
didn't lose, for once. I won.
43
00:02:47,752 --> 00:02:49,337
[woman] To happy endings then.
44
00:02:50,630 --> 00:02:51,964
Yeah, happy endings.
45
00:02:53,675 --> 00:02:54,759
[woman] So, what's next?
46
00:02:58,096 --> 00:02:59,555
[woman moaning]
47
00:03:08,856 --> 00:03:10,608
[both moaning]
48
00:03:14,237 --> 00:03:16,656
[pop song playing]
49
00:03:24,414 --> 00:03:25,498
[mumbles]
50
00:03:26,165 --> 00:03:29,794
- Sure you won't stick around?
- I better get home.
51
00:03:31,796 --> 00:03:34,006
[chuckles] Were you at a party
or something?
52
00:03:36,259 --> 00:03:37,385
Hmm?
53
00:03:39,846 --> 00:03:41,514
I've been looking for this
my whole life.
54
00:03:42,765 --> 00:03:43,766
[woman] Happy to help.
55
00:03:45,309 --> 00:03:46,519
See you around sometime.
56
00:03:47,729 --> 00:03:49,063
[door opens]
57
00:03:50,857 --> 00:03:55,153
[woman] I remember when I was
a little girl, our house caught on fire.
58
00:03:56,154 --> 00:03:58,448
I'll never forget the look
on my father's face
59
00:03:58,531 --> 00:04:00,825
as he gathered me up in his arms
60
00:04:00,908 --> 00:04:03,661
and raced through the burning building
onto the pavement.
61
00:04:05,204 --> 00:04:08,332
And I stood there
shivering in my pajamas
62
00:04:08,416 --> 00:04:11,294
and watched the whole world
go up in flames.
63
00:04:11,377 --> 00:04:14,630
And when it was all over,
I said to myself,
64
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,342
"Is that all there is to a fire?
65
00:04:21,262 --> 00:04:24,348
Is that all there is?"
66
00:04:28,519 --> 00:04:31,355
["My Favorite Mutiny" playing]
67
00:05:59,485 --> 00:06:01,237
[man] There you go again, Bill!
68
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,948
Pissing on a flat rock
and telling me it's raining!
69
00:06:04,031 --> 00:06:05,467
[Sharman] I just drafted you
two power forwards.
70
00:06:05,491 --> 00:06:07,410
I just coached those scrubs
in summer league.
71
00:06:07,493 --> 00:06:09,245
Shit, fuck, I'd do better with
72
00:06:09,328 --> 00:06:11,048
two pin-dick toddlers
from your summer camp.
73
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,874
- You know what I'd do.
- Fuck off, Chick.
74
00:06:12,957 --> 00:06:15,501
- We're not trading Kareem!
- [Buss] All right then!
75
00:06:16,127 --> 00:06:17,503
We're not trading the MVP!
76
00:06:17,587 --> 00:06:19,463
Sounds like smart basketball, Bill.
77
00:06:19,547 --> 00:06:21,883
This is Maria, by the way.
Have a seat, honey.
78
00:06:23,092 --> 00:06:25,511
Chick, do you mind mixing me up
a rum and Coke?
79
00:06:25,595 --> 00:06:27,847
- What are you having, hon?
- Sex on the Beach?
80
00:06:27,930 --> 00:06:29,348
[man] That's what I like to hear.
81
00:06:29,432 --> 00:06:31,642
You know,
we're, uh, really just getting started.
82
00:06:32,852 --> 00:06:34,687
Nothing too exciting yet. You know,
83
00:06:34,770 --> 00:06:37,815
might be best to let us
hack the tall grass
84
00:06:37,899 --> 00:06:40,443
and come by
and give you the big picture later.
85
00:06:41,861 --> 00:06:46,032
Yeah. Leave the gardening to us, Bill.
That's what we used to do for Cooke.
86
00:06:46,490 --> 00:06:47,992
Right. Well...
87
00:06:50,161 --> 00:06:51,621
I like to be a little more hands-on.
88
00:06:52,038 --> 00:06:54,373
I've got the owners meeting coming up,
89
00:06:54,457 --> 00:06:56,167
so if you tell me
what we're looking for,
90
00:06:56,250 --> 00:06:59,211
I can keep my ear to the ground,
and see if I can help us out.
91
00:06:59,295 --> 00:07:01,130
No, no, no, no. You don't do that.
92
00:07:01,213 --> 00:07:03,133
[Sharman] No,
what Jerry is trying to say is that
93
00:07:03,174 --> 00:07:06,052
these owner characters,
they're just a little slippery.
94
00:07:06,886 --> 00:07:08,262
Come on, boys.
95
00:07:08,721 --> 00:07:11,015
I'm talking about a championship.
A ring.
96
00:07:11,098 --> 00:07:14,101
The record books. That is
what we're all doing here, right?
97
00:07:14,185 --> 00:07:15,353
Since when?
98
00:07:16,979 --> 00:07:18,981
Since God invented basketball.
99
00:07:19,065 --> 00:07:20,483
Since God invented basketball.
100
00:07:21,025 --> 00:07:23,027
- Jerry, Jerry... Stop.
- No, Bill, no.
101
00:07:23,110 --> 00:07:25,571
Bill, he wants to pretend
we're playing basketball.
102
00:07:27,448 --> 00:07:31,452
Why don't you ask him
why this is the third year straight
103
00:07:31,535 --> 00:07:34,872
I've been begging for a solid four,
but he won't buy me Spencer Haywood.
104
00:07:34,956 --> 00:07:36,040
He's too expensive.
105
00:07:36,123 --> 00:07:38,292
Not to mention
he attracts a certain element,
106
00:07:38,376 --> 00:07:40,711
you know,
that whole "back to Africa" malarkey.
107
00:07:40,795 --> 00:07:42,463
[West]
That sound like basketball to you?
108
00:07:42,546 --> 00:07:45,007
- [Sharman] It's business, Jerry.
- Bingo. Ding-ding.
109
00:07:45,716 --> 00:07:47,802
That's what you won't read
in your sports pages.
110
00:07:47,885 --> 00:07:50,513
Every year, I tell these jokers
what I need to win it all.
111
00:07:50,596 --> 00:07:53,391
We game it out,
we get all fired up and hard.
112
00:07:53,474 --> 00:07:55,142
Then the man in your shoes walks in...
113
00:07:56,227 --> 00:07:57,770
and we're right back where we started.
114
00:07:58,562 --> 00:08:01,023
Sellin' popcorn,
sitting on our fuckin' thumbs.
115
00:08:01,565 --> 00:08:04,443
And Jerry West is out there
with the same three stars,
116
00:08:04,527 --> 00:08:07,697
nine scrubs, trying to squeeze
a diamond out of fuckin' pig shit.
117
00:08:07,780 --> 00:08:10,074
You know what, fellas?
Fucking do myself a favor...
118
00:08:10,157 --> 00:08:11,450
and fucking spare myself
119
00:08:11,534 --> 00:08:13,345
- the emotional...
- Indulge me, Jerry. Indulge me.
120
00:08:13,369 --> 00:08:16,038
- Jerry, tell me what you need.
- Jesus Christ.
121
00:08:18,374 --> 00:08:19,750
More than you're willing to spend.
122
00:08:24,964 --> 00:08:26,465
And you know that how?
123
00:08:26,549 --> 00:08:28,718
- Oh, shit.
- You're a businessman.
124
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,513
Y'all want pee from a tree,
but when you see the price,
125
00:08:32,596 --> 00:08:34,181
your sphincter puckers.
126
00:08:35,224 --> 00:08:37,101
[Buss chuckling]
127
00:08:40,062 --> 00:08:41,062
All right.
128
00:08:42,356 --> 00:08:44,025
Bill, is this last year's budget?
129
00:08:44,108 --> 00:08:46,027
Yeah, we're still working
on the new one.
130
00:08:46,110 --> 00:08:47,319
All right, well, don't bother.
131
00:08:48,112 --> 00:08:51,907
Jerry, I told you
when we drafted Johnson,
132
00:08:51,991 --> 00:08:53,743
all the other basketball was up to you,
133
00:08:53,826 --> 00:08:56,787
and I will give you whatever you need.
134
00:08:59,081 --> 00:09:01,834
Now, take the week
and come back to me about what that is.
135
00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:04,336
In the meantime, Maria...
136
00:09:05,546 --> 00:09:07,423
you leave the price tag,
137
00:09:07,506 --> 00:09:10,426
and my beautiful sphincter up to me.
138
00:09:12,386 --> 00:09:13,429
Come on, Frank!
139
00:09:14,013 --> 00:09:15,056
[Sharman] Shit, Jerry,
140
00:09:15,598 --> 00:09:18,059
I think you just got
everything you always wanted.
141
00:09:23,481 --> 00:09:25,417
[Buss] Now we can do as much as we want
with a stadium.
142
00:09:25,441 --> 00:09:27,401
[man] Well, that's a good point,
Dr. Buss.
143
00:09:27,485 --> 00:09:30,321
To my mind, the NBA should be
competing with the top-tier leagues.
144
00:09:30,404 --> 00:09:34,200
I mean, we have the most exciting sport
on the planet, the best athletes.
145
00:09:34,283 --> 00:09:36,869
There's no reason we can't be
just as popular as golf or tennis.
146
00:09:37,411 --> 00:09:39,531
[man] Hey, who knows?
Maybe we'll catch up to bowling.
147
00:09:39,580 --> 00:09:41,874
You're joking,
but they're killing us in the Nielsens.
148
00:09:41,957 --> 00:09:43,501
We're on thin ice with CBS,
149
00:09:43,584 --> 00:09:45,062
and no one else
is beating down the door.
150
00:09:45,086 --> 00:09:47,004
If we're going to survive,
we need big thinkers.
151
00:09:47,088 --> 00:09:48,297
Well, Dave, here we are.
152
00:09:49,507 --> 00:09:50,966
- Let's go say hi.
- After you.
153
00:09:51,050 --> 00:09:52,093
Fred!
154
00:09:52,176 --> 00:09:53,969
Dr. Jerry Buss,
pleasure to finally meet you.
155
00:09:54,053 --> 00:09:56,180
- How's the old lady? Good. Vince!
- Great.
156
00:09:56,263 --> 00:09:58,557
How do you do? Dr. Jerry Buss.
Coming out with us tonight?
157
00:09:58,641 --> 00:10:00,351
I don't know. I'll have to see, Jerry.
158
00:10:00,434 --> 00:10:02,478
You ever had a blow job
with champagne in her mouth?
159
00:10:02,561 --> 00:10:04,230
You're going to love it. Mr. McComb!
160
00:10:04,313 --> 00:10:05,898
Welcome to Los Angeles, partner.
161
00:10:05,981 --> 00:10:07,375
Texas is bigger, but we're more fun.
162
00:10:07,399 --> 00:10:09,568
- Welcome to the club.
- Thank you. It's a great honor.
163
00:10:09,652 --> 00:10:11,213
Hey, I want you to know I voted for you.
164
00:10:11,237 --> 00:10:12,839
Thank you, Bill.
I appreciate that. I really do.
165
00:10:12,863 --> 00:10:14,615
- He didn't.
- He didn't vote for me?
166
00:10:14,698 --> 00:10:15,783
He didn't vote for you.
167
00:10:16,283 --> 00:10:18,202
A lot of people
were against you buying in.
168
00:10:18,327 --> 00:10:19,327
Mmm-hmm.
169
00:10:19,370 --> 00:10:20,931
See, we've seen
some real estate types before
170
00:10:20,955 --> 00:10:22,581
that buy low, sell high.
171
00:10:22,665 --> 00:10:25,126
No long-term investment
in the future of the league.
172
00:10:25,668 --> 00:10:27,878
Well, the Lakers are your future,
Dave.
173
00:10:27,962 --> 00:10:28,920
Oh?
174
00:10:28,921 --> 00:10:30,315
But I'd still like to meet the past.
175
00:10:30,339 --> 00:10:32,800
- Where's this Auerbach?
- You mean the Pope?
176
00:10:33,467 --> 00:10:35,136
Follow the white smoke.
177
00:10:38,973 --> 00:10:40,349
[Buss] Red Auerbach.
178
00:10:40,432 --> 00:10:44,436
Winner of 13 rings,
7 of them against our club. No losses.
179
00:10:45,396 --> 00:10:47,565
If you're a Laker,
he's the devil incarnate.
180
00:10:47,648 --> 00:10:49,584
If you're from Boston,
chances are you're Catholic,
181
00:10:49,608 --> 00:10:51,152
but you'd sell your soul for him.
182
00:10:51,235 --> 00:10:54,864
The networks are turned off
by all this street ball.
183
00:10:54,947 --> 00:10:56,574
The thugs, the fighting.
184
00:10:57,032 --> 00:10:58,325
It scares away decent families.
185
00:10:59,451 --> 00:11:00,451
Don't you worry.
186
00:11:00,494 --> 00:11:03,164
Decent families have
creamed their shorts for Larry Bird.
187
00:11:03,247 --> 00:11:04,527
The hick with the funny haircut?
188
00:11:04,957 --> 00:11:07,793
That hick is gonna win me
ten more rings.
189
00:11:07,877 --> 00:11:09,957
- Yeah. He got a brother?
- Hell, I'll take a sister.
190
00:11:10,754 --> 00:11:12,354
[Buss]
I'll take the guy who'll beat him.
191
00:11:14,175 --> 00:11:16,427
- Dr. Buss.
- Commissioner. Red.
192
00:11:16,802 --> 00:11:19,972
- Jerry Buss, big fan.
- That won't last long.
193
00:11:20,055 --> 00:11:22,349
Well, I doubt that. I love a winner.
194
00:11:22,975 --> 00:11:26,353
Well, then you bought the wrong team.
No one loses quite like the Lakers.
195
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:27,897
[men laughing]
196
00:11:28,022 --> 00:11:29,022
[Buss] Well,
197
00:11:29,899 --> 00:11:31,609
I'm fixing to change that actually.
198
00:11:31,692 --> 00:11:33,545
Was hoping to pick your brain
a little bit about it.
199
00:11:33,569 --> 00:11:35,714
You know, me and the boys
are gonna go out on the town tonight.
200
00:11:35,738 --> 00:11:38,157
I got the keys to Hefner's place,
if you wanna come along.
201
00:11:40,284 --> 00:11:41,452
I bet you do.
202
00:11:43,871 --> 00:11:45,372
You fellas go get your kicks.
203
00:11:46,540 --> 00:11:48,000
I got a basketball team to run.
204
00:11:49,460 --> 00:11:50,461
Commissioner.
205
00:11:52,213 --> 00:11:53,214
Sure thing.
206
00:11:57,343 --> 00:12:00,638
A'ight, y'all. Take care of me now.
No scratching up my mama's walls.
207
00:12:00,721 --> 00:12:03,057
- Don't worry, man, we got you.
- A'ight.
208
00:12:03,140 --> 00:12:05,768
Yo, what I heard true?
They give you 500,000?
209
00:12:06,435 --> 00:12:08,312
- Fuck's wrong with you?
- What?
210
00:12:08,395 --> 00:12:10,773
Just wanna know what it feels like.
All that money.
211
00:12:11,315 --> 00:12:12,900
It feels good, man.
212
00:12:12,983 --> 00:12:15,027
Feel real good.
213
00:12:15,152 --> 00:12:16,528
[laughs]
214
00:12:16,612 --> 00:12:18,822
For me, though,
it ain't about the money.
215
00:12:18,906 --> 00:12:20,824
It's about the love. What's up, Mikey?
216
00:12:20,908 --> 00:12:23,202
Tell your brother
I owe him that rematch too.
217
00:12:23,827 --> 00:12:25,955
Big bro. What's up, baby?
218
00:12:28,165 --> 00:12:29,458
When you going to training camp?
219
00:12:29,541 --> 00:12:30,810
- [Earvin] Hey, Junior.
- What's up, Pop?
220
00:12:30,834 --> 00:12:33,087
- Settle something for your old man.
- Yes, sir.
221
00:12:33,170 --> 00:12:35,130
What's the most points
you scored in high school?
222
00:12:35,214 --> 00:12:36,507
- Forty-eight.
- See?
223
00:12:36,590 --> 00:12:39,343
See what? I got 12 in a quarter.
224
00:12:39,426 --> 00:12:41,011
You was king of the air ball!
225
00:12:41,095 --> 00:12:44,181
I used to dunk on him so much,
his head used to smell like my nuts.
226
00:12:44,265 --> 00:12:45,641
That's why he lost all that hair.
227
00:12:45,766 --> 00:12:48,060
[men laughing]
228
00:12:48,143 --> 00:12:50,604
- Folks in Lansing love their boy.
- Hey, EJ.
229
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:52,481
Cindy.
230
00:12:54,775 --> 00:12:57,569
What I tell you?
They all just rootin' me on.
231
00:12:57,945 --> 00:12:59,280
All one big, happy...
232
00:13:04,034 --> 00:13:05,035
family.
233
00:13:05,869 --> 00:13:07,871
We right here. Look.
234
00:13:07,955 --> 00:13:10,374
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Don't look actually.
235
00:13:10,457 --> 00:13:11,792
All right, one more step.
236
00:13:12,543 --> 00:13:15,546
Okay. Turn a little bit. All right.
237
00:13:16,588 --> 00:13:17,673
Open your eyes.
238
00:13:19,174 --> 00:13:20,175
What you think?
239
00:13:24,221 --> 00:13:25,973
I think I know how my wall got scuffed.
240
00:13:26,056 --> 00:13:27,766
Don't worry about none of that, Ma.
241
00:13:27,850 --> 00:13:30,352
Them construction cats,
they gonna put it in real nice,
242
00:13:30,436 --> 00:13:31,854
and they gonna clean up your walls.
243
00:13:31,937 --> 00:13:35,065
And trample all my floors
and tear my bathroom to pieces. No.
244
00:13:35,733 --> 00:13:38,277
- Where'd you get this thing from?
- I bought it.
245
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,946
Look, Ma, it got these fancy jets
and everything,
246
00:13:41,030 --> 00:13:43,741
just like the one in that commercial
that you was always liking.
247
00:13:43,824 --> 00:13:46,285
Camay leaves me
looking clean and creamy.
248
00:13:46,368 --> 00:13:47,368
Everywhere.
249
00:13:47,369 --> 00:13:49,831
You bought this house too
with that Laker money,
250
00:13:49,913 --> 00:13:51,415
or is this still mine to see to?
251
00:13:51,498 --> 00:13:52,708
'Course it is, Ma.
252
00:13:55,127 --> 00:13:56,503
You should have consulted me.
253
00:13:57,588 --> 00:14:00,507
Ma, how am I supposed to surprise you
when I go sayin' what I'm gonna do
254
00:14:00,591 --> 00:14:02,760
- before I do it?
- I see. So this is for me then?
255
00:14:02,843 --> 00:14:05,679
So I can forget about you
skipping school this summer.
256
00:14:05,763 --> 00:14:09,391
Ma, it ain't got nothin' to do
with my diploma. For real!
257
00:14:09,475 --> 00:14:10,809
Right hand to God. Soon as...
258
00:14:10,893 --> 00:14:12,573
As soon as the season over,
I'm back at it.
259
00:14:12,603 --> 00:14:14,563
Well, that sounds good.
260
00:14:15,022 --> 00:14:18,650
So, I can just take your word for it
and soak my cares away?
261
00:14:20,819 --> 00:14:22,237
You're supposed to be happy.
262
00:14:23,655 --> 00:14:27,451
You know what? You were baptized
in a tub just this size.
263
00:14:28,494 --> 00:14:29,745
And the water hit,
264
00:14:30,496 --> 00:14:33,415
and you didn't cry.
You didn't make a sound.
265
00:14:34,792 --> 00:14:39,046
And I thought to myself, "Well,
this kid is in lockstep with the Lord."
266
00:14:39,129 --> 00:14:41,340
All I got to do is raise him right.
267
00:14:44,468 --> 00:14:46,178
And Lord knows I tried.
268
00:14:48,097 --> 00:14:50,137
Just 'cause I ain't takin'
no geography this summer?
269
00:14:50,682 --> 00:14:53,852
Because you think you can buy me
with a bathtub and a smile.
270
00:14:54,395 --> 00:14:55,979
It ain't that, Ma.
271
00:14:56,063 --> 00:14:58,065
I want you to stand on your feet.
272
00:14:58,732 --> 00:15:01,151
I want you to have something
to fall back on.
273
00:15:01,819 --> 00:15:02,861
And your soul.
274
00:15:03,654 --> 00:15:05,548
Because when these fans are gone
and, believe me,
275
00:15:05,572 --> 00:15:07,972
- they will, mark my words...
- Ma, they ain't going nowhere!
276
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,828
Whole city full of love!
Why that ain't enough for you?
277
00:15:12,329 --> 00:15:14,164
I was tryin' to make you happy.
278
00:15:17,626 --> 00:15:19,586
I was happy with my old tub.
279
00:15:29,847 --> 00:15:32,724
[woman] Good luck.
He's been in there since yesterday.
280
00:15:32,808 --> 00:15:35,060
Hasn't said a word,
just locked the door.
281
00:15:35,644 --> 00:15:37,479
He gets like this before the season.
282
00:15:37,563 --> 00:15:40,363
[woman] And after the season, and during
the season and All-Star break,
283
00:15:40,399 --> 00:15:42,151
and sometimes just 'cause it's Tuesday.
284
00:15:42,234 --> 00:15:44,820
He lives and breathes basketball.
That's why we love him.
285
00:15:44,903 --> 00:15:45,904
Fuck off, Bill.
286
00:15:46,738 --> 00:15:47,865
[West] Fuck off, Bill.
287
00:15:48,824 --> 00:15:50,492
The love in this house.
288
00:15:50,576 --> 00:15:51,785
I'm leaving lunch!
289
00:15:52,744 --> 00:15:53,745
You're welcome.
290
00:15:59,251 --> 00:16:02,296
Oh, shit. Are you kidding me?
Jesus fuckin' Christ.
291
00:16:02,588 --> 00:16:03,797
[Sharman grunting]
292
00:16:04,965 --> 00:16:06,175
Fuck! Shit!
293
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,183
Leave me alone. I'm working.
294
00:16:14,266 --> 00:16:15,309
I see that.
295
00:16:20,022 --> 00:16:23,442
This place reeks like a gym sock farted.
296
00:16:25,986 --> 00:16:26,987
Get out then.
297
00:16:27,654 --> 00:16:29,198
Have you thought about showering?
298
00:16:29,865 --> 00:16:32,159
Good thoughts come in
when you're showering.
299
00:16:32,242 --> 00:16:33,243
What's the point?
300
00:16:33,744 --> 00:16:35,746
Who wins, who plays, who loses.
301
00:16:36,830 --> 00:16:38,832
We all end up the same anyway.
302
00:16:39,500 --> 00:16:41,710
Fuckin' worm food. Dead.
303
00:16:41,793 --> 00:16:43,754
Well, that's one perspective.
304
00:16:44,338 --> 00:16:46,882
- The only one.
- Jerry...
305
00:16:47,883 --> 00:16:49,885
I've listened to you bitch for ten years
306
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,223
about wanting the right ingredients,
307
00:16:54,306 --> 00:16:57,226
and this guy is giving you carte blanche
for the perfect meal.
308
00:16:57,309 --> 00:16:59,853
I will give you whatever you need.
309
00:16:59,937 --> 00:17:02,940
Fuck. As long as there's
a fuckin' onion in it.
310
00:17:03,023 --> 00:17:04,525
What, are you still on about Johnson?
311
00:17:06,610 --> 00:17:08,612
You know what I think?
It ain't Johnson. It's you.
312
00:17:09,530 --> 00:17:11,341
You're afraid if you get
everything you ask for,
313
00:17:11,365 --> 00:17:12,741
you won't have an excuse.
314
00:17:12,824 --> 00:17:15,577
Fuck you, Bill! Fuck you!
I don't need no excuse!
315
00:17:15,661 --> 00:17:19,665
And I fuckin' sure as shit don't need
no fuckin' 6'9" forward
316
00:17:19,748 --> 00:17:22,125
playing dress-up
as a fuckin' point guard!
317
00:17:22,209 --> 00:17:25,295
No, if it was up to me,
I'd take the ball out of his hands
318
00:17:25,379 --> 00:17:27,506
and stick him in the fuckin' post
where he belongs.
319
00:17:28,257 --> 00:17:29,258
Then do it.
320
00:17:32,594 --> 00:17:34,263
- Buss' never gonna...
- He said
321
00:17:34,346 --> 00:17:36,390
you had to play the kid, not how.
322
00:17:36,473 --> 00:17:38,159
What are you afraid of?
He's gonna fire you?
323
00:17:38,183 --> 00:17:40,227
I mean, this job makes you
fuckin' miserable.
324
00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:41,645
It's a win-win situation!
325
00:17:42,854 --> 00:17:44,648
- Fuck you, I love my job.
- Then do it.
326
00:17:47,401 --> 00:17:48,402
Could work.
327
00:17:49,361 --> 00:17:51,238
It could be fucking... It could be good.
328
00:17:53,115 --> 00:17:54,533
I'll have to talk to Kareem first.
329
00:17:54,616 --> 00:17:56,827
This could... work.
330
00:17:57,244 --> 00:17:59,955
Fuck, god damn it, dude!
This is the fuckin' business!
331
00:18:00,038 --> 00:18:02,249
Why the fuck you standing there, Bill?
I got work to do.
332
00:18:02,708 --> 00:18:04,084
- It's hot in LA, right?
- Hot.
333
00:18:04,167 --> 00:18:06,545
- Sun is all over you.
- All over you.
334
00:18:06,628 --> 00:18:09,089
So what do you want
when it's hot on the outside?
335
00:18:09,506 --> 00:18:11,717
- You want ice. But not just any old ice.
- Ice.
336
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:13,594
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
337
00:18:13,677 --> 00:18:15,596
You want some ice with some taste in it.
338
00:18:15,679 --> 00:18:16,680
Tell him what they want.
339
00:18:16,763 --> 00:18:19,224
- You want... Tasty Ice.
- You want... Tasty Ice.
340
00:18:20,684 --> 00:18:25,355
[Christine] Ladies, you should see
this gift that my Earvin gave me. A tub!
341
00:18:26,315 --> 00:18:27,774
Just like the white lady on TV.
342
00:18:27,899 --> 00:18:29,568
[women exclaiming]
343
00:18:30,652 --> 00:18:32,237
- This soap leave me soft and...
- Yeah.
344
00:18:32,321 --> 00:18:35,490
Yeah? Like yeah, you in?
345
00:18:36,700 --> 00:18:39,328
Hey, why don't y'all hit me
with a business plan?
346
00:18:39,411 --> 00:18:40,787
Then we can see what's what.
347
00:18:40,871 --> 00:18:43,081
We just told you the business plan.
348
00:18:43,165 --> 00:18:45,542
People's gonna eat ice
and give us money.
349
00:18:45,626 --> 00:18:48,503
No, we'll be right back
with that business plan.
350
00:18:48,587 --> 00:18:50,881
- Right.
- We'll be right back. We'll be back.
351
00:18:52,049 --> 00:18:53,258
Hello, Earvin.
352
00:18:53,925 --> 00:18:55,886
Hey, Cook. Glad you came.
353
00:18:59,806 --> 00:19:00,806
Hey, EJ.
354
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:04,561
'Sup, Brian?
355
00:19:04,645 --> 00:19:06,480
I saw your mother at Bible study.
356
00:19:06,897 --> 00:19:08,565
Said we should stop by.
357
00:19:08,649 --> 00:19:09,858
Wanted to see you off.
358
00:19:09,941 --> 00:19:10,984
Yeah?
359
00:19:11,943 --> 00:19:13,543
Don't you work at Happy Shoes on Sunday?
360
00:19:14,446 --> 00:19:16,615
When you're the manager,
you make the schedule.
361
00:19:16,698 --> 00:19:18,659
- Yeah, you is the manager. Yeah.
- Yeah.
362
00:19:18,742 --> 00:19:21,078
Congrats on the draft, by the way.
That's a big deal.
363
00:19:21,161 --> 00:19:24,039
- Hey, congrats on manager.
- Yeah. Yeah, thanks.
364
00:19:24,122 --> 00:19:26,792
Maybe you could stop by the store
sometime before you leave.
365
00:19:26,875 --> 00:19:29,336
- The kids would love it.
- I'm sure they would.
366
00:19:29,419 --> 00:19:30,921
They see you every day, so...
367
00:19:31,004 --> 00:19:34,091
Brian, is that you? Son, get in here.
368
00:19:34,174 --> 00:19:35,967
I need your big brain on this fish fry.
369
00:19:36,051 --> 00:19:38,303
- Come on!
- Be right over, Sister Johnson.
370
00:19:38,387 --> 00:19:40,764
- Okay.
- You got a great mama, man.
371
00:19:40,847 --> 00:19:42,474
Love her to death. Excuse me.
372
00:19:46,311 --> 00:19:47,729
So that's why you came through?
373
00:19:48,397 --> 00:19:50,065
To show me up with that sucker?
374
00:19:52,192 --> 00:19:53,735
[Cookie] I came...
375
00:19:53,819 --> 00:19:56,196
to say how proud of you I am.
376
00:19:57,739 --> 00:19:59,908
And that if you need anything, I'm here.
377
00:20:03,829 --> 00:20:04,829
Anything?
378
00:20:06,540 --> 00:20:08,959
I almost forgot who I was talkin' to.
379
00:20:09,668 --> 00:20:10,836
But, for real,
380
00:20:11,795 --> 00:20:13,588
you need an ear or a friend,
381
00:20:14,381 --> 00:20:15,424
you know where I'm at.
382
00:20:16,591 --> 00:20:17,592
Cook...
383
00:20:18,301 --> 00:20:20,220
Okay? You already know.
384
00:20:20,303 --> 00:20:22,180
[Larry Johnson]
Man, EJ, you were right.
385
00:20:22,264 --> 00:20:25,100
You were right.
We did need a business plan.
386
00:20:25,183 --> 00:20:26,727
- And we sure enough got one.
- Boom.
387
00:20:26,810 --> 00:20:28,895
- Two words.
- [Larry Johnson] Two.
388
00:20:28,979 --> 00:20:30,063
Blue...
389
00:20:30,188 --> 00:20:31,104
[men chuckling excitedly]
390
00:20:31,106 --> 00:20:33,734
- [Quincy] Berry.
- Ooh, ain't nobody got that.
391
00:20:33,817 --> 00:20:36,737
- [Quincy] Nobody! Nobody...
- Not Tastee-Freez.
392
00:20:39,239 --> 00:20:41,342
[Claire] Well, it took all night
and my pisher grandson
393
00:20:41,366 --> 00:20:42,826
spit up on the revenue distinction,
394
00:20:42,909 --> 00:20:44,846
but I think I cracked a budget
that might do the trick.
395
00:20:44,870 --> 00:20:47,914
- Maybe the barf will cover the red ink.
- [scoffs] No hiding that.
396
00:20:47,998 --> 00:20:49,708
But run down to my car
and check the math.
397
00:20:49,791 --> 00:20:51,209
I've got a hot date with the books.
398
00:20:52,043 --> 00:20:53,253
Love of my life.
399
00:21:04,139 --> 00:21:05,348
Where the fuck are the books?
400
00:21:05,432 --> 00:21:07,559
[officer] So this burglary,
there were no valuables.
401
00:21:07,642 --> 00:21:10,645
- It was just files?
- Not just files. Our financials.
402
00:21:10,729 --> 00:21:12,773
It's 20 years of budgets,
balance sheets.
403
00:21:12,856 --> 00:21:13,856
- Frank took them.
- It's everything.
404
00:21:13,857 --> 00:21:15,137
It's the whole goddamn business.
405
00:21:15,734 --> 00:21:16,902
Frank took them.
406
00:21:17,444 --> 00:21:19,404
- What?
- Uncle Frank?
407
00:21:19,488 --> 00:21:22,073
- Frank Mariani, my dad's...
- Yeah, I know who he is.
408
00:21:22,157 --> 00:21:25,076
Yeah, he came by after hours
with a few guys and some boxes.
409
00:21:25,827 --> 00:21:27,827
- He said it was okay so...
- [Claire] Okay by who?
410
00:21:28,205 --> 00:21:30,749
Um, I don't know.
I figured that he talked to you...
411
00:21:30,832 --> 00:21:32,501
Jeanie, it's not your job to figure.
412
00:21:32,584 --> 00:21:33,877
Your job is to pour coffee.
413
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,338
Your job is to refill
the fucking stapler!
414
00:21:36,421 --> 00:21:39,090
And your job is to make sure that people
don't break into my office
415
00:21:39,174 --> 00:21:41,802
like the Watergate burglars
and make off with my goddamn books!
416
00:21:41,885 --> 00:21:42,928
I didn't know he hadn't...
417
00:21:43,678 --> 00:21:44,678
Fuck!
418
00:21:50,018 --> 00:21:51,353
[mouthing]
419
00:22:01,238 --> 00:22:02,906
Sorry. It'll be just a minute.
420
00:22:07,744 --> 00:22:09,079
[Claire] Don't try number six.
421
00:22:09,162 --> 00:22:10,872
Unless you want to burn the bedspread.
422
00:22:10,956 --> 00:22:13,166
[Buss] It's a win-win, I'm telling ya.
423
00:22:13,250 --> 00:22:16,336
You get yourself
a beautiful oceanfront building,
424
00:22:16,419 --> 00:22:17,838
and my team gets a rebounder.
425
00:22:18,296 --> 00:22:20,006
Maria, you remember Arn?
426
00:22:20,590 --> 00:22:21,590
Hi, Arn.
427
00:22:22,592 --> 00:22:23,592
Hi, Arn...
428
00:22:24,469 --> 00:22:26,847
I mean... I'm Arn.
429
00:22:27,597 --> 00:22:29,237
Let's close this thing, all right?
Claire.
430
00:22:30,725 --> 00:22:32,352
She closes more deals than the lawyers.
431
00:22:33,228 --> 00:22:34,646
I'll bet she does.
432
00:22:34,729 --> 00:22:37,357
Sounds like you're trying
to free up some capital.
433
00:22:38,567 --> 00:22:40,151
Can't take it with you, Claire.
434
00:22:40,235 --> 00:22:41,653
What's your drink? I'm buying.
435
00:22:42,237 --> 00:22:44,114
I'm just a little bit concerned.
436
00:22:44,197 --> 00:22:45,197
What for?
437
00:22:45,824 --> 00:22:47,075
It's after breakfast, isn't it?
438
00:22:48,326 --> 00:22:51,580
See, ordinarily, with Mr. Cooke,
I'd walk him through the books myself.
439
00:22:51,663 --> 00:22:52,823
- But your partner...
- Right.
440
00:22:52,873 --> 00:22:56,293
...Mr. Mariani,
came by my office unannounced.
441
00:22:56,376 --> 00:22:57,794
[Buss] Are you kiddin' me?
442
00:22:57,878 --> 00:23:00,130
God damn. I told him
443
00:23:00,213 --> 00:23:02,382
to talk to you about that first
and, you know,
444
00:23:02,465 --> 00:23:05,552
you can't control everything they do.
That's Frank for you.
445
00:23:05,635 --> 00:23:08,680
So, anyway, you strike me as a gin gal.
446
00:23:08,763 --> 00:23:10,515
- I get that right?
- You got me.
447
00:23:10,599 --> 00:23:13,393
Talent of mine. I can always tell.
Have a seat.
448
00:23:13,476 --> 00:23:14,728
Look, Mr., uh... Dr. Buss...
449
00:23:14,811 --> 00:23:16,438
Jerry. Jerry.
450
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:19,876
I don't know how you run your business,
451
00:23:19,900 --> 00:23:22,152
but those books
are how I do my job, okay?
452
00:23:22,235 --> 00:23:26,197
Keeping the balance sheet in check,
overseeing expenditures, protecting you.
453
00:23:26,281 --> 00:23:27,481
These are my responsibilities.
454
00:23:27,866 --> 00:23:29,868
Those were your responsibilities.
455
00:23:30,368 --> 00:23:32,078
See, if I have her
lookin' after the books,
456
00:23:32,162 --> 00:23:34,039
then she'll see
we're stretched a little thin,
457
00:23:34,122 --> 00:23:36,291
and that kind of thing
is not great for morale.
458
00:23:36,750 --> 00:23:39,586
Claire, forget about the numbers.
I already have somebody for that.
459
00:23:39,669 --> 00:23:41,379
You've asked me to stay on.
460
00:23:41,463 --> 00:23:43,465
Because I see a bigger role for you.
461
00:23:44,174 --> 00:23:47,802
I want you innovating.
Now, you have the Forum booked for,
462
00:23:47,886 --> 00:23:49,763
what, 220 nights a year?
463
00:23:49,846 --> 00:23:51,723
- 217.
- Not bad.
464
00:23:51,806 --> 00:23:53,099
But the way I see it,
465
00:23:53,183 --> 00:23:57,520
if we can just boost that number
up a little bit, say, to 260 nights,
466
00:23:57,604 --> 00:23:59,314
well then, we're turnin' a profit.
467
00:23:59,397 --> 00:24:02,192
And if you can get me
to 365 days a year,
468
00:24:02,275 --> 00:24:04,653
- well then, we're cookin' with gas.
- Dr. Buss,
469
00:24:04,736 --> 00:24:07,155
no arena in the country
is booked every night, okay?
470
00:24:07,238 --> 00:24:10,158
Madison Square Garden, Caesars Palace.
Every place goes dark.
471
00:24:11,826 --> 00:24:14,371
Well, they're not in
the city of sunshine, right?
472
00:24:17,165 --> 00:24:18,166
Claire...
473
00:24:20,418 --> 00:24:21,461
let's talk turkey.
474
00:24:24,381 --> 00:24:25,674
What turns you on?
475
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,011
What gets your blood pumping?
476
00:24:31,513 --> 00:24:35,475
Because, me, I don't even get out of bed
unless I have a hard-on about something.
477
00:24:36,810 --> 00:24:38,478
- So, what excites you?
- All right.
478
00:24:38,561 --> 00:24:42,774
What is it going to take for you to turn
the Forum itself into an attraction?
479
00:24:43,233 --> 00:24:44,442
Money.
480
00:24:44,526 --> 00:24:46,569
Advertising, marketing, refurbishments.
481
00:24:46,653 --> 00:24:48,172
- All of those are expensive.
- How much?
482
00:24:48,196 --> 00:24:50,323
It would help
if I had access to a budget.
483
00:24:50,407 --> 00:24:51,825
You have access to me.
484
00:24:51,908 --> 00:24:54,911
I'm the budget. Now, be creative.
485
00:24:55,620 --> 00:24:57,539
No idea is too big.
486
00:24:57,622 --> 00:25:00,709
We are building Shangri-La.
487
00:25:01,710 --> 00:25:04,087
[woman] Well, you have really done it
this time, Gerald.
488
00:25:04,170 --> 00:25:07,173
Bought your way
into a grade-A money pit.
489
00:25:10,176 --> 00:25:11,594
Ma, it's the Lakers!
490
00:25:11,678 --> 00:25:14,347
It's gonna be like a family business,
but bigger and better.
491
00:25:14,431 --> 00:25:16,182
I thought you already
got bigger and better.
492
00:25:16,266 --> 00:25:19,978
That's why you and little meatball
moved me on to greener pastures.
493
00:25:20,061 --> 00:25:21,604
I know where the bodies are buried.
494
00:25:21,688 --> 00:25:23,231
Because she's the one who buried 'em.
495
00:25:23,314 --> 00:25:24,314
Lot of thanks I get.
496
00:25:25,442 --> 00:25:27,110
Make mine a bourbon and soda.
497
00:25:27,193 --> 00:25:29,320
- You've had enough.
- Since when?
498
00:25:29,988 --> 00:25:31,156
1962?
499
00:25:32,449 --> 00:25:34,576
[Jessie] You want me old before my time.
500
00:25:34,659 --> 00:25:35,660
Dee! Dee! Dee!
501
00:25:35,744 --> 00:25:38,288
I did it. I poured you one.
You don't have soda.
502
00:25:38,371 --> 00:25:39,581
You're just lazy.
503
00:25:39,664 --> 00:25:41,708
Gerald, Gerald.
504
00:25:41,791 --> 00:25:44,002
And why the Lakers?
There's no lakes around here.
505
00:25:44,085 --> 00:25:45,503
I can't believe you're not excited.
506
00:25:45,587 --> 00:25:49,090
This puts our family
in a very elite club.
507
00:25:49,174 --> 00:25:51,009
Okay? Tycoons.
508
00:25:51,092 --> 00:25:53,178
You know, the people
who actually run the country.
509
00:25:53,261 --> 00:25:54,804
Captains of industry.
510
00:25:54,888 --> 00:25:56,556
What industry? Sweat socks?
511
00:25:56,639 --> 00:25:57,807
No. Show business.
512
00:25:58,683 --> 00:25:59,768
Forget Louis B. Mayer.
513
00:25:59,851 --> 00:26:01,571
We're gonna be
the next moguls in this town.
514
00:26:02,187 --> 00:26:05,774
You, me, Jeanie,
the boys, when they come back.
515
00:26:05,857 --> 00:26:07,067
We're gonna be a dynasty.
516
00:26:07,150 --> 00:26:08,735
And then you'll be satisfied?
517
00:26:08,818 --> 00:26:10,445
- I'm gonna be thrilled.
- Hooey!
518
00:26:10,528 --> 00:26:12,655
Then you'll just start chasing
something else.
519
00:26:15,658 --> 00:26:17,869
- [sighs] Ma...
- What?
520
00:26:17,952 --> 00:26:20,288
I love you, and I will see you
521
00:26:20,371 --> 00:26:22,624
whenever I don't remember
what it's like to see you.
522
00:26:23,124 --> 00:26:25,085
Leave the books, I'll do the taxes.
523
00:26:29,798 --> 00:26:32,550
Best to keep your dirty laundry
in the family, don't you think?
524
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,595
This is a big deal.
And you should be happier.
525
00:26:35,678 --> 00:26:36,930
[Jessie] Oh, I'm thrilled.
526
00:26:38,598 --> 00:26:41,309
I'm gonna stick his fuckin' ass
right in the post.
527
00:26:41,392 --> 00:26:42,685
Fuck, I love this shit...
528
00:26:42,769 --> 00:26:44,229
...point guard, I'm the coach.
529
00:26:44,312 --> 00:26:47,357
Yes! It's fucking showtime!
Come on, showtime.
530
00:26:47,774 --> 00:26:50,819
I've always had a soft spot
for you, Norman.
531
00:26:50,902 --> 00:26:54,030
You've always had a place right here.
532
00:26:54,114 --> 00:26:57,033
God fucking damn it!
Get your fucking eyes up!
533
00:26:57,117 --> 00:26:58,576
Trade you for a fucking mule!
534
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:00,912
But I swear to God, there is no one,
535
00:27:00,995 --> 00:27:02,956
and I mean it,
fuckin' no one I would rather have
536
00:27:03,039 --> 00:27:05,667
running my offense
than Stormin' Norman Nixon.
537
00:27:05,750 --> 00:27:06,876
Stormin' Norman Nixon!
538
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,212
What kind of fucking name
is that anyway?
539
00:27:10,505 --> 00:27:12,173
What's all this shit about, Jerry?
540
00:27:12,257 --> 00:27:14,467
See, that's why I like you, Norm.
A straight shooter.
541
00:27:14,551 --> 00:27:18,429
Come on! Been a lot of chat,
a lot of bullshit in the fuckin' press.
542
00:27:18,513 --> 00:27:20,807
This new kid comin' in,
snug-buggin' with the owner.
543
00:27:21,266 --> 00:27:23,268
I see how that agitates a guy like you.
544
00:27:23,893 --> 00:27:24,894
Seasoned pro.
545
00:27:25,353 --> 00:27:28,064
A man who worked damn fuckin' hard
to make it in this league.
546
00:27:28,148 --> 00:27:30,817
I want you to rest assured, Norm,
you're on solid ground.
547
00:27:33,611 --> 00:27:35,363
You're the point guard, Norm. Not him.
548
00:27:35,446 --> 00:27:37,046
You call yourself a fuckin' point guard?
549
00:27:37,115 --> 00:27:38,116
Says who?
550
00:27:38,741 --> 00:27:41,661
Me, Coach. The guy who decides.
551
00:27:41,744 --> 00:27:44,831
So, Buss is cool
with paying half a million bucks
552
00:27:44,914 --> 00:27:47,584
to sit this motherfucker on a bench
and watch him smile?
553
00:27:47,667 --> 00:27:49,502
Buss is giving me free rein.
554
00:27:49,586 --> 00:27:51,629
No more meddling, man.
Shackles the fuck off.
555
00:27:51,713 --> 00:27:53,548
- Shackles off.
- He's giving me the control.
556
00:27:53,631 --> 00:27:56,176
I need to get this team
over the fuckin' hump.
557
00:27:57,802 --> 00:27:59,387
'Cause that's what we've been missing.
558
00:27:59,470 --> 00:28:01,431
Fuckin' jewelry
on a fuckin' basketball court!
559
00:28:02,098 --> 00:28:03,266
More control from you.
560
00:28:04,934 --> 00:28:05,935
Exactly.
561
00:28:06,895 --> 00:28:08,229
Okay, so my uncle
562
00:28:09,105 --> 00:28:11,941
owns a store in Simi.
It's called Patio Brothers.
563
00:28:12,025 --> 00:28:14,819
They are looking for a venue
for their annual convention.
564
00:28:14,903 --> 00:28:18,740
And he's considered by many
the king of chaise lounges.
565
00:28:18,823 --> 00:28:19,908
What else?
566
00:28:19,991 --> 00:28:21,951
First AME would take the Forum
every Sunday.
567
00:28:22,035 --> 00:28:24,245
What if the Lakers
are playing on a Sunday?
568
00:28:24,329 --> 00:28:26,539
- They'd have to find another venue.
- The church?
569
00:28:26,623 --> 00:28:28,333
- The team.
- Next.
570
00:28:28,875 --> 00:28:30,752
[Jeanie] I have something. Maybe.
571
00:28:32,879 --> 00:28:34,756
I've been digging through
the Billboard charts,
572
00:28:34,839 --> 00:28:36,758
and it's been three years
since any top-ten acts
573
00:28:36,841 --> 00:28:37,842
toured through the Forum.
574
00:28:38,426 --> 00:28:39,594
It's our acoustics.
575
00:28:40,178 --> 00:28:44,140
Right. Right. And I know we've seen
some bids on a new sound system,
576
00:28:44,224 --> 00:28:46,976
but, I mean, honestly,
I don't think that's the point.
577
00:28:47,727 --> 00:28:49,395
This is Hollywood.
578
00:28:49,479 --> 00:28:51,159
We don't need to make
the Forum sound good.
579
00:28:51,189 --> 00:28:52,607
We just need to make it cool.
580
00:28:54,484 --> 00:28:56,903
I have a few ideas,
if you're interested at all...
581
00:28:56,986 --> 00:28:58,154
We're out of creamer.
582
00:29:03,034 --> 00:29:04,035
Right.
583
00:29:11,834 --> 00:29:14,045
Just to be clear,
that's a no on Patio Brothers.
584
00:29:14,420 --> 00:29:15,660
[Claire] That's a fuck no, Lon.
585
00:29:16,798 --> 00:29:19,425
[Lon] They're coming out
with a Rocky Il, apparently,
586
00:29:19,509 --> 00:29:21,928
so I'm thinking
giant screening at the Forum.
587
00:29:22,929 --> 00:29:24,055
We can get Stallone.
588
00:29:24,764 --> 00:29:27,016
- We could...
- You got his number?
589
00:29:40,029 --> 00:29:41,669
- Hey, Jer. He's ready for you now.
- Huh?
590
00:29:41,698 --> 00:29:43,199
Oh. Good, good.
591
00:29:45,493 --> 00:29:47,093
- You two have fun.
- Here's the big guy.
592
00:29:47,578 --> 00:29:48,663
Ooh-wee.
593
00:29:49,914 --> 00:29:50,915
Look at this.
594
00:29:51,416 --> 00:29:52,542
Nice and peaceful, huh?
595
00:29:53,459 --> 00:29:55,086
You know, I come by
596
00:29:55,795 --> 00:29:57,297
'cause I want you to know that I'm...
597
00:29:58,172 --> 00:30:00,174
Well, I'm sensitive
to your frustrations, Cap.
598
00:30:01,843 --> 00:30:04,053
I mean, shit,
ever since we traded Kermit,
599
00:30:04,137 --> 00:30:06,139
you've been out there
gettin' fuckin' rag-dolled.
600
00:30:07,015 --> 00:30:08,349
Respectfully, of course.
601
00:30:09,058 --> 00:30:10,601
But that don't make it fuckin' right.
602
00:30:11,394 --> 00:30:12,729
Everybody beatin' on you.
603
00:30:13,354 --> 00:30:14,814
Double and tripling you in the post,
604
00:30:14,897 --> 00:30:17,442
eating six elbows
for every fuckin' rebound!
605
00:30:17,525 --> 00:30:19,777
Then, taking it up the ass
from the fucking press
606
00:30:19,861 --> 00:30:21,738
when you're the one
carrying the goddamn team!
607
00:30:22,155 --> 00:30:24,595
Fuck, I respect you too much
to see you go through that again.
608
00:30:26,034 --> 00:30:27,035
Which is why I'm here.
609
00:30:27,994 --> 00:30:29,037
You have a proposal?
610
00:30:30,413 --> 00:30:32,415
I'm playing Johnson at the fucking four.
611
00:30:34,125 --> 00:30:37,045
I mean, he'll spell Norm
a little off the bench,
612
00:30:37,128 --> 00:30:39,773
but his main duties would be
carrying your water, watching your back,
613
00:30:39,797 --> 00:30:41,717
eating those fucking elbows
so you don't have to.
614
00:30:42,508 --> 00:30:44,302
We're gonna kick his ass
in training camp.
615
00:30:44,385 --> 00:30:46,346
I'll feed him so much
fuckin' steak and gunpowder,
616
00:30:46,429 --> 00:30:48,097
he craps the happy out.
617
00:30:48,181 --> 00:30:50,975
Look, the point is,
this is our year, Cap.
618
00:30:51,059 --> 00:30:52,226
You and me. The brass ring!
619
00:30:52,310 --> 00:30:55,021
The guys who live and die for it,
married to the game!
620
00:30:59,734 --> 00:31:01,277
Let me know when training camp starts.
621
00:31:02,862 --> 00:31:04,238
What you readin'? Good book?
622
00:31:06,366 --> 00:31:07,367
Yeah.
623
00:31:07,950 --> 00:31:08,951
It's on my list.
624
00:31:10,578 --> 00:31:11,996
Well...
625
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:13,081
[greeting in Arabic]
626
00:31:23,007 --> 00:31:25,385
[Magic] I seen her looking at that tub
since I was little.
627
00:31:25,468 --> 00:31:27,095
Every day,
she'd be watching her stories,
628
00:31:27,178 --> 00:31:29,430
and there she is,
drool all down her chin.
629
00:31:29,514 --> 00:31:30,765
Now I go and get it for her,
630
00:31:30,848 --> 00:31:32,534
and from the look on her face,
you would've thought
631
00:31:32,558 --> 00:31:34,727
I called her everything
but a child of God.
632
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:36,789
Wouldn't know it from the outside.
633
00:31:36,813 --> 00:31:39,732
- You think I'm playin'?
- I think I know your mama.
634
00:31:39,816 --> 00:31:40,983
She gives you that cold side.
635
00:31:41,067 --> 00:31:42,568
Meanwhile, she's all around town,
636
00:31:42,652 --> 00:31:44,862
telling everybody with ears
how great you are.
637
00:31:44,946 --> 00:31:47,407
"Oh, my son Earvin this.
Oh, my son, Earvin that."
638
00:31:47,490 --> 00:31:50,368
If she was a peacock, her tail feathers
would have been fell off.
639
00:31:50,451 --> 00:31:52,412
What you sayin',
I don't know nothing about.
640
00:31:53,037 --> 00:31:55,224
- You know she loves you.
- Then why her love always got
641
00:31:55,248 --> 00:31:57,125
a big ol' carrot dangling
in front of you?
642
00:31:57,792 --> 00:32:00,628
Everything I do gotta be her way
or she ain't having none of it.
643
00:32:01,712 --> 00:32:03,548
Can't imagine what that must feel like.
644
00:32:03,631 --> 00:32:06,092
- What's that supposed to mean?
- You.
645
00:32:06,634 --> 00:32:08,678
On top of the world,
but just can't stand it.
646
00:32:08,761 --> 00:32:11,681
Coming here on Brian's day off,
get me to talk about your mama.
647
00:32:12,306 --> 00:32:13,306
Then what?
648
00:32:13,599 --> 00:32:14,809
Get me in the stockroom?
649
00:32:17,937 --> 00:32:18,938
He hit it yet?
650
00:32:20,189 --> 00:32:22,066
I know this game, Earvin.
651
00:32:22,150 --> 00:32:24,902
Want everyone your way,
just like your mama.
652
00:32:24,986 --> 00:32:27,113
Now, don't tell me
he's saving it for marriage.
653
00:32:27,196 --> 00:32:30,450
All goody-goody up in church,
smiling and whatnot.
654
00:32:31,075 --> 00:32:32,827
Now, he'd make my mama happy.
655
00:32:32,910 --> 00:32:36,038
Last you said you wasn't gonna be alone.
Why should I be?
656
00:32:36,122 --> 00:32:38,541
I ain't sayin' you should be.
You do you.
657
00:32:39,167 --> 00:32:41,169
But that don't mean that
we can't do us though.
658
00:32:43,463 --> 00:32:44,464
Cook...
659
00:32:45,047 --> 00:32:46,257
Don't be like that.
660
00:32:47,842 --> 00:32:49,177
Hey, hey.
661
00:32:51,137 --> 00:32:52,138
I love you.
662
00:32:53,764 --> 00:32:55,475
Not as much as you love you.
663
00:32:56,392 --> 00:32:58,478
The rest of us
just comin' off the bench.
664
00:33:05,610 --> 00:33:06,944
[couple moaning]
665
00:33:11,157 --> 00:33:12,992
- [church bell rings]
- Hoo!
666
00:33:13,534 --> 00:33:15,578
Come on. Church about to let out.
667
00:33:16,621 --> 00:33:17,830
Ooh-wee.
668
00:33:18,372 --> 00:33:19,373
Shit...
669
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,001
Needed that.
670
00:33:22,126 --> 00:33:23,377
Hoo!
671
00:33:23,586 --> 00:33:25,379
[upbeat blues music playing]
672
00:33:35,097 --> 00:33:36,390
What's up, Brother William?
673
00:33:36,474 --> 00:33:37,600
Basketball man!
674
00:33:37,683 --> 00:33:40,186
- Hey, sunshine.
- Good day for a fish fry.
675
00:33:40,353 --> 00:33:42,104
[indistinct chattering]
676
00:33:44,649 --> 00:33:46,984
[Magic] What's up, Cook?
Looking lovely, as usual.
677
00:33:47,485 --> 00:33:49,946
Hey, Ma.
Sorry, I had to get some fresh air.
678
00:33:50,488 --> 00:33:54,575
[stutters] You know,
our stained glass window of the Savior
679
00:33:54,659 --> 00:33:56,053
can use a little tender loving care...
680
00:33:56,077 --> 00:33:57,745
Say less, Pastor, say less.
681
00:33:59,539 --> 00:34:01,249
Let's fix that Jesus now.
682
00:34:02,792 --> 00:34:04,043
Look at that. It don't fit.
683
00:34:06,295 --> 00:34:08,506
[Pastor Greene]
Lord, Junior! God bless you!
684
00:34:08,589 --> 00:34:10,859
God bless you too, Pastor Greene.
Anything for the church.
685
00:34:10,883 --> 00:34:11,883
Anything for the church.
686
00:34:11,884 --> 00:34:14,388
[Pastor Greene] You got a fine son
there, Sister Johnson.
687
00:34:14,470 --> 00:34:17,014
Yes. Yes, he is.
688
00:34:17,098 --> 00:34:18,307
Yes, he is.
689
00:34:18,391 --> 00:34:20,494
- [Pastor Greene] Working in the kingdom.
- [Magic] Yes, sir!
690
00:34:20,518 --> 00:34:22,645
I'm about to get a plate, Ma. Love you.
691
00:34:22,728 --> 00:34:24,957
[Pastor Greene] God bless you again,
Junior. God bless you.
692
00:34:24,981 --> 00:34:26,023
Amen, amen.
693
00:34:29,443 --> 00:34:32,280
Waiter? What's this fly
doing in my soup?
694
00:34:32,363 --> 00:34:33,656
The backstroke, sir.
695
00:34:34,740 --> 00:34:37,326
Dr. Buss! Welcome, sir.
696
00:34:37,410 --> 00:34:38,411
Bruno!
697
00:34:38,911 --> 00:34:40,871
Red. I am so glad you called.
698
00:34:40,955 --> 00:34:43,165
I'm a little surprised you did,
but I'm glad.
699
00:34:43,249 --> 00:34:45,501
- Had to eat somewhere.
- Well, we picked a good place.
700
00:34:45,585 --> 00:34:47,396
- Come on in.
- We have your regular table, sir.
701
00:34:47,420 --> 00:34:50,506
Fantastic. I feel like I just won a date
with the Playmate of the Year.
702
00:34:50,590 --> 00:34:52,717
Linda. That lawsuit is embarrassing.
703
00:34:53,175 --> 00:34:55,720
Billy! You know what
I'm asking for, right?
704
00:34:55,803 --> 00:34:57,680
- Little bit of Louis Prima.
- Great choice.
705
00:34:57,763 --> 00:34:59,974
How are you, pal?
I wanna introduce you to some people
706
00:35:00,057 --> 00:35:01,934
before we sit down,
if that's all right, Red.
707
00:35:02,018 --> 00:35:05,563
Ladies, may I introduce
the great Red Auerbach.
708
00:35:06,522 --> 00:35:08,691
The winningest man
in basketball right here.
709
00:35:09,984 --> 00:35:12,612
This is a very special moment
you're having. Trust me.
710
00:35:13,154 --> 00:35:15,424
We'll get to know these gals
a little bit later, all right?
711
00:35:15,448 --> 00:35:17,884
The girls are gonna join us for dessert,
you know what I mean?
712
00:35:17,908 --> 00:35:19,702
What do we got here, Bruno?
713
00:35:19,785 --> 00:35:20,786
Corner table?
714
00:35:22,913 --> 00:35:23,913
Rum and Coke, sir?
715
00:35:23,914 --> 00:35:25,458
Yes. Keep 'em coming, Bruno!
716
00:35:25,541 --> 00:35:27,293
- Red, what're you having?
- Scotch.
717
00:35:27,376 --> 00:35:29,920
- The good stuff. Thank you.
- Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir.
718
00:35:31,005 --> 00:35:32,882
That play work for you in real estate?
719
00:35:33,549 --> 00:35:34,465
What's that?
720
00:35:34,467 --> 00:35:36,927
Get the sucker thinking
with his little head, not his big one?
721
00:35:38,262 --> 00:35:40,181
There's that famous Celtic defense.
722
00:35:40,681 --> 00:35:42,224
No. Come on.
723
00:35:42,308 --> 00:35:44,560
You're a student of the game, I take it.
724
00:35:46,395 --> 00:35:48,022
Yeah. Look, Red...
725
00:35:49,815 --> 00:35:52,401
I know I'm still
the freshman of the class,
726
00:35:52,485 --> 00:35:55,029
and you're the big man on campus.
I get that. I respect it.
727
00:35:55,988 --> 00:35:58,199
But I wanted to meet
because I'm asking for your help.
728
00:35:58,991 --> 00:36:02,244
I'm trying to build something out here
like you built in Boston.
729
00:36:03,079 --> 00:36:04,872
Like a real dynasty.
730
00:36:04,955 --> 00:36:07,166
And frankly, I think
that would be good for the league.
731
00:36:08,793 --> 00:36:10,419
[laughing]
732
00:36:10,711 --> 00:36:11,962
What?
733
00:36:12,046 --> 00:36:13,881
You think you're the guy
to do that, do you?
734
00:36:13,964 --> 00:36:16,258
Well, I wouldn't count me out.
735
00:36:17,385 --> 00:36:18,552
[sighs]
736
00:36:19,887 --> 00:36:21,389
You strike me as a happy man.
737
00:36:22,264 --> 00:36:23,766
You only get so many summers, right?
738
00:36:24,392 --> 00:36:26,352
- Then here's my advice.
- Okay.
739
00:36:26,435 --> 00:36:28,312
Enjoy this thing. Milk it.
740
00:36:28,771 --> 00:36:30,940
For the nookie, for the attention.
741
00:36:31,899 --> 00:36:33,150
Leave the dynasties to me.
742
00:36:35,194 --> 00:36:36,320
Come on now, Red.
743
00:36:37,321 --> 00:36:38,906
You afraid of competition?
744
00:36:38,989 --> 00:36:39,990
[chuckling] No.
745
00:36:40,700 --> 00:36:43,327
I live for competition,
but you're no competitor.
746
00:36:44,161 --> 00:36:46,664
It's nothing to be ashamed of.
It's just not who you are.
747
00:36:46,747 --> 00:36:48,582
- It's not your nature.
- All right.
748
00:36:49,250 --> 00:36:51,210
You know, Red, we just met...
[clears throat]
749
00:36:52,545 --> 00:36:54,255
so you don't know me.
750
00:36:55,673 --> 00:36:58,050
But I grew up dirt-poor, on breadlines.
751
00:36:58,134 --> 00:36:59,593
Made all the money in the world.
752
00:36:59,677 --> 00:37:02,096
- And you think you can buy this too?
- No.
753
00:37:03,556 --> 00:37:05,641
I think I can win this.
754
00:37:11,355 --> 00:37:12,815
Championships aren't won.
755
00:37:13,733 --> 00:37:14,734
They're taken.
756
00:37:15,776 --> 00:37:17,111
By men like me,
757
00:37:17,194 --> 00:37:19,864
who'd cut your heart out
and still sleep like a baby
758
00:37:19,947 --> 00:37:21,949
for one more banner in the rafters.
759
00:37:23,284 --> 00:37:26,036
Because I don't want to win.
760
00:37:26,829 --> 00:37:27,829
I need to.
761
00:37:28,330 --> 00:37:30,249
And it doesn't make me happy.
762
00:37:30,332 --> 00:37:32,585
It makes me a miserable fucking bastard.
763
00:37:32,668 --> 00:37:34,253
Well, you can say that again.
764
00:37:34,336 --> 00:37:36,922
Say it all you want, pal.
I'm fine and dandy with it.
765
00:37:37,006 --> 00:37:39,175
You're the one
who's doing this shit to feel good.
766
00:37:39,258 --> 00:37:41,844
I'm gonna feel very good
when I have that trophy in my hands.
767
00:37:41,927 --> 00:37:42,843
[Auerbach] For a minute.
768
00:37:42,845 --> 00:37:44,513
Then it's on to next year.
769
00:37:44,597 --> 00:37:47,850
You and all the other wannabes
who do it for the pussy in your lap.
770
00:37:48,768 --> 00:37:51,854
And brag that you won 50 games
and made the playoffs.
771
00:37:51,937 --> 00:37:54,190
Pretty soon,
you'll realize it ain't worth it.
772
00:37:54,648 --> 00:37:58,319
You'll find another shiny toy,
a little poorer for your troubles.
773
00:37:58,819 --> 00:38:01,071
- I can afford a lot of trouble.
- Horse shit.
774
00:38:01,655 --> 00:38:03,365
I know what you spent.
I know what you got.
775
00:38:06,076 --> 00:38:07,870
But maybe I can help you out
with that too.
776
00:38:08,454 --> 00:38:09,663
How's that?
777
00:38:09,747 --> 00:38:11,749
You have some nice pieces
on your roster.
778
00:38:11,832 --> 00:38:13,375
How about you unload a few to me?
779
00:38:14,335 --> 00:38:15,753
That's why you came to dinner?
780
00:38:16,253 --> 00:38:19,006
Red, I may be new,
but I'm not, you know...
781
00:38:19,089 --> 00:38:23,093
Then you're dumber than you look
because this decade is mine.
782
00:38:24,011 --> 00:38:26,514
That Celtic pride,
that luck of the Irish
783
00:38:26,597 --> 00:38:28,599
your boy West thinks
stole his lunch money?
784
00:38:30,184 --> 00:38:32,061
It's never been a fuckin' leprechaun.
785
00:38:33,270 --> 00:38:34,271
It's me.
786
00:38:38,067 --> 00:38:39,068
Have we decided?
787
00:38:40,236 --> 00:38:42,530
- Say the porterhouse was good?
- Yes.
788
00:38:44,657 --> 00:38:46,242
I've decided I lost my appetite.
789
00:38:47,451 --> 00:38:49,411
- You wanted my advice.
- Put it on my tab, Sammy.
790
00:38:49,453 --> 00:38:52,456
Take the offer, fill your coffers,
and enjoy yourself!
791
00:38:53,249 --> 00:38:54,834
Let's put another lobster on that.
792
00:39:03,133 --> 00:39:04,593
Gotta say, it ain't the worst thing.
793
00:39:05,219 --> 00:39:07,012
Yeah. He says he got it for me.
794
00:39:11,141 --> 00:39:12,768
Safer than talking to you outright.
795
00:39:13,269 --> 00:39:14,353
Mmm.
796
00:39:14,979 --> 00:39:16,188
'Cause you got a way, baby.
797
00:39:17,481 --> 00:39:18,899
It's a lovely way,
798
00:39:20,192 --> 00:39:22,152
but that don't make it
nonetheless scary.
799
00:39:22,236 --> 00:39:25,114
Well, if you're scared it's 'cause
you're doing something wrong.
800
00:39:25,197 --> 00:39:26,615
I call it like I see it.
801
00:39:27,366 --> 00:39:28,366
Yeah.
802
00:39:28,742 --> 00:39:31,412
And how you see it
makes the boy feel bad.
803
00:39:31,996 --> 00:39:34,331
I mean, you're frowning on
that carefree way he moves,
804
00:39:34,957 --> 00:39:36,792
like the only time he has is forever.
805
00:39:37,585 --> 00:39:39,503
Just like you did once.
806
00:39:40,212 --> 00:39:41,297
The lies you tell.
807
00:39:41,881 --> 00:39:43,841
Before you found the Lord.
808
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,178
When we were both out in the rain,
809
00:39:48,262 --> 00:39:49,972
free spirits,
810
00:39:50,055 --> 00:39:52,641
getting down to the newest tunes
811
00:39:52,725 --> 00:39:56,979
and dances, and you was putting it on me
like no one else!
812
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,107
Hey, it worked.
813
00:40:01,025 --> 00:40:02,234
Look at all these kids we got.
814
00:40:02,318 --> 00:40:03,444
[sighs]
815
00:40:04,153 --> 00:40:07,448
All I'm saying is you seeing where he is
816
00:40:08,490 --> 00:40:09,825
reminds you of where you were.
817
00:40:11,493 --> 00:40:14,538
And just may conjure up
that green-eyed devil.
818
00:40:14,622 --> 00:40:17,041
I'm happy with my life.
819
00:40:17,875 --> 00:40:20,044
Not saying otherwise, Christine.
820
00:40:21,003 --> 00:40:22,755
Just saying this is yours.
821
00:40:23,505 --> 00:40:24,506
Ours.
822
00:40:25,424 --> 00:40:26,425
That's his.
823
00:40:27,968 --> 00:40:29,386
Can't live it for him, baby.
824
00:40:30,137 --> 00:40:31,555
[moaning]
825
00:40:31,722 --> 00:40:32,973
Why not?
826
00:40:33,098 --> 00:40:34,308
[moaning]
827
00:40:38,604 --> 00:40:42,232
You ever gonna take me somewhere
nicer than this hoopty.
828
00:40:43,108 --> 00:40:46,070
I know you ain't talking about the
Big Brown Deuce now. This is my girl!
829
00:40:46,153 --> 00:40:48,197
Just sayin',
my daddy got the dealership.
830
00:40:49,031 --> 00:40:51,742
He got Mercedes.
Could drive one to you in LA.
831
00:40:55,537 --> 00:40:57,873
I got into UCLA Medical School.
832
00:40:58,582 --> 00:41:02,503
But I was thinkin', you know,
since I'mma have a friend out there,
833
00:41:02,586 --> 00:41:05,506
- maybe we could hang out sometime...
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
834
00:41:05,589 --> 00:41:08,550
Well, you know,
when the time right, I'll call you.
835
00:41:09,176 --> 00:41:12,471
But, you know, with basketball,
I'll be busy and everything.
836
00:41:12,554 --> 00:41:15,557
So it might be a while. Yeah.
837
00:41:15,641 --> 00:41:18,143
You know, usually
I'm beating boys off with a stick.
838
00:41:20,187 --> 00:41:22,022
But maybe you still hung up on Cookie.
839
00:41:22,773 --> 00:41:24,608
Ain't nobody thinkin' about no Cookie.
840
00:41:25,359 --> 00:41:27,212
If anything,
Cookie should be thinking about me.
841
00:41:27,236 --> 00:41:29,530
- I'm the one doing big things. Yeah.
- Oh, yeah?
842
00:41:29,613 --> 00:41:31,448
- Yeah. Yeah...
- Yeah.
843
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:34,743
[inaudible]
844
00:41:38,956 --> 00:41:40,874
[indistinct chatter]
845
00:41:54,722 --> 00:41:56,598
[hip hop music playing]
846
00:42:08,235 --> 00:42:09,778
[music stops]
847
00:42:09,862 --> 00:42:11,447
I ain't trying to bum-rush, fellas.
848
00:42:11,530 --> 00:42:13,633
It'd be nice to get a run here
before I jet off to LA.
849
00:42:13,657 --> 00:42:15,826
Yeah, well, we in the middle of a game.
850
00:42:15,909 --> 00:42:17,119
You could take my spot.
851
00:42:17,703 --> 00:42:19,747
- Gotta go to work anyway.
- My man.
852
00:42:19,830 --> 00:42:21,874
- Anytime.
- Yeah, y'all do.
853
00:42:22,875 --> 00:42:24,877
- What's up, Cook?
- Hey.
854
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:26,420
Hold this right quick.
855
00:42:26,503 --> 00:42:27,796
Can you watch that for me?
856
00:42:28,922 --> 00:42:29,922
Thanks.
857
00:42:31,467 --> 00:42:32,676
Don't be like that, Cook.
858
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,596
Y'all ready to win? I got you.
859
00:42:36,305 --> 00:42:38,348
- A'ight. Your ball.
- Bet.
860
00:42:41,393 --> 00:42:42,853
You know Cook's my girl, right?
861
00:42:42,936 --> 00:42:44,938
Yeah? I ain't see you with us
at the movies.
862
00:42:45,647 --> 00:42:47,751
Man, you just there
'cause I'm about to jet off to LA,
863
00:42:47,775 --> 00:42:48,793
and she don't wanna be alone.
864
00:42:48,817 --> 00:42:50,402
I'm just there 'cause you're a dog.
865
00:42:50,486 --> 00:42:52,071
And the whole town knows it.
866
00:42:52,154 --> 00:42:53,840
Man, you run through girls
like they're nothing.
867
00:42:53,864 --> 00:42:56,658
- 'Cause to you, that's what they are.
- So you know me?
868
00:42:57,367 --> 00:42:58,368
Yeah, she does too.
869
00:43:00,329 --> 00:43:01,723
You know I'm about
to fuck you up, right?
870
00:43:01,747 --> 00:43:04,083
You ain't gonna have
a friend in Jesus after this.

In your face!
873
00:43:11,006 --> 00:43:13,383
Brian, I'm just glad
we gettin' a chance to talk.
874
00:43:13,467 --> 00:43:14,676
Let's discuss this.
875
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,554
See, I've been putting it on Cook
for a minute now.
876
00:43:17,638 --> 00:43:19,139
And from what I hear,
877
00:43:19,223 --> 00:43:21,100
you ain't smell hide nor hair
of that pussy.
878
00:43:21,183 --> 00:43:22,392
I'm not with her for her body.
879
00:43:22,476 --> 00:43:23,953
That's the difference
between you and me.
880
00:43:23,977 --> 00:43:26,021
Yeah, that's right.
You think about her soul!
881
00:43:26,647 --> 00:43:27,856
Well, quiet as it's kept,
882
00:43:28,398 --> 00:43:29,483
I fucked that too.

884
00:43:37,491 --> 00:43:41,078
Get back on deep, Brian!
Let's go! It's coming my way? Swing!
885
00:43:41,745 --> 00:43:43,872
Let's say you and Cook
get married and all that.
886
00:43:43,956 --> 00:43:45,975
You think she gonna look
on the life you provide for her
887
00:43:45,999 --> 00:43:47,876
and not think on
what it could've been with me?
888

[men exclaiming]
889
00:43:52,047 --> 00:43:54,258
Think about that
when you can't pay a bill.
890
00:43:54,341 --> 00:43:56,426
Or get that Christmas gift
our girl really wants.
891
00:43:56,510 --> 00:43:57,510
'Cause she will.

00:43:57,553 --> 00:43:59,513
- Ball!
- Hate to be you, my dude.
893
00:44:07,020 --> 00:44:08,147
Damn!
894
00:44:08,730 --> 00:44:10,732
You look like our girl down there.
895
00:44:10,816 --> 00:44:12,151
Face and everything.
896
00:44:12,234 --> 00:44:13,735
Come on, man. Get up.
897
00:44:15,737 --> 00:44:18,073
What, no thank you?
What, you don't wanna talk no more?
898
00:44:18,157 --> 00:44:20,426
I know a lot of reporters
give their right nut to talk to Magic.
899
00:44:20,450 --> 00:44:21,368
Can you just play ball?
900
00:44:21,369 --> 00:44:22,369
Can you just play ball?
901
00:44:22,452 --> 00:44:24,955
You want me to play ball.
Let's play ball.
902
00:44:25,038 --> 00:44:27,958
Give him the ball then! He open!
903

904
00:44:32,963 --> 00:44:33,964
Come on, Brian.
905

Ball!
906
00:44:42,973 --> 00:44:44,016
Yeah, right there.
907
00:44:46,393 --> 00:44:48,812
That's game. Take care of yourself, man.

- What did you say to him?

911
00:45:02,451 --> 00:45:04,494
Hey, Brian. You okay, baby? Talk to me.
912
00:45:04,578 --> 00:45:07,122
- Brian, talk to me.
- I was just playing ball.

Why come?
916
00:45:21,553 --> 00:45:23,889
'Cause I tell dude
what everybody know is true?
917
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:26,099
You was there. You ain't say a word.
918
00:45:26,767 --> 00:45:28,393
That's 'cause you liked it.
919
00:45:29,269 --> 00:45:32,147
You don't like him. You just trying
to make me feel some type of way.
920
00:45:32,814 --> 00:45:34,483
And which way is that?
921
00:45:34,566 --> 00:45:37,444
I got the whole damn world on a string,
but you got me.
922
00:45:37,527 --> 00:45:38,779
Then why you playin' with me?
923
00:45:38,862 --> 00:45:40,781
I'm here, ain't I? It's me! Earvin!

But if you want me,
929
00:46:03,845 --> 00:46:05,305
then ditch that motherfucker.
930
00:46:06,598 --> 00:46:09,601
Till then, you can watch me on TV
with everybody else.

943
00:47:04,948 --> 00:47:06,742
to some Italian, huh?

00:47:11,788 --> 00:47:14,708
I see you're talking to me now.
947
00:47:14,791 --> 00:47:16,376
I know. I've been a little in my head.
948
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:18,680
You haven't said a word to me
in three days.
949

- You haven't slept in our bed.

You haven't even
stepped inside the house.

I just had to get my feet wet.
The hardest part's getting started.
952
00:47:25,635 --> 00:47:28,930
- And what's the easy part?
- Karen, there's ups and downs, you know.
953
00:47:29,014 --> 00:47:31,391
Okay, this is an up. I'm happy now.
954
00:47:33,101 --> 00:47:36,355
All right, I'm optimistic,
but I can see it all, Kar.
955
00:47:36,438 --> 00:47:39,149
We got a shot at winning it all
this year, a championship,
956
00:47:39,232 --> 00:47:41,432
and that is the happiest I've ever been,
I swear to God.
957
00:47:43,695 --> 00:47:47,282
No! No. I mean,
outside of you and I, of course.
958
00:47:47,366 --> 00:47:51,244
- I'll have to take your word for it.
- Karen, don't, don't, don't, don't.
959
00:47:51,328 --> 00:47:52,704
- Let's just... No...
- Jerry!
960
00:47:52,788 --> 00:47:55,290
They're your ups and downs.
I understand that now.
961
00:47:55,374 --> 00:47:58,460
But if I ride that roller coaster
with you, I will go crazy.
962
00:47:58,543 --> 00:48:00,143
[West] You think I wanna live like this?

00:48:00,504 --> 00:48:01,731
You're acting like I got a choice.
964
00:48:01,755 --> 00:48:03,399
I fuckin' hate this shit, Karen,
but you...

Must've been 50,000 of 'em.
1021
00:51:49,691 --> 00:51:51,151
Cooke had 'em made up special.
1022
00:51:52,694 --> 00:51:54,446
"World Champion Lakers."
1023
00:51:55,822 --> 00:51:57,282
[laughing]
1024
00:51:59,117 --> 00:52:01,870
Eleven titles with that squad,
and that was the sweetest.
1025
00:52:04,247 --> 00:52:06,124
We kept that hot air
right where it belonged.
1026
00:52:10,587 --> 00:52:13,048
We got a deal? I got a flight.
1027
00:52:13,131 --> 00:52:14,215
Won't take long.
1028
00:52:14,966 --> 00:52:16,176
The fact is, Red,
1029
00:52:17,802 --> 00:52:18,887
you were dead-on.
1030
00:52:21,056 --> 00:52:23,933
I thought I could waltz in here
and spend my way to victory,
1031
00:52:25,018 --> 00:52:26,728
have a grand old time along the way.
1032
00:52:28,938 --> 00:52:31,024
But you got me thinkin'
about what I really needed.
1033
00:52:39,282 --> 00:52:41,451
I need to cut your heart out.
1034
00:52:47,290 --> 00:52:48,416
You haven't got it.
1035
00:52:50,502 --> 00:52:51,753
Oh, yes, I do.
1036
00:52:54,130 --> 00:52:55,840
And I'm gonna beat your ass with it.
1037
00:52:57,175 --> 00:52:59,511
This year. Next year.
1038
00:53:00,637 --> 00:53:03,056
Every other year, and every other you,
1039
00:53:03,848 --> 00:53:07,811
until nobody even remembers
Boston or the Celtics
1040
00:53:07,894 --> 00:53:12,107
or the great Red Auerbach
ever won a goddamned thing.
1041
00:53:14,442 --> 00:53:15,442
[scoffs]
1042
00:53:17,445 --> 00:53:19,072
I'll see you when we play you, kiddo.
1043
00:53:51,479 --> 00:53:52,480
Miss Buss.
1044
00:53:53,314 --> 00:53:54,441
[Jeanie] Ms. Rothman.
1045
00:53:54,524 --> 00:53:56,484
Ladies, could you give us
the room, please?
1046
00:54:02,198 --> 00:54:04,784
I want to apologize for everything.
1047
00:54:06,286 --> 00:54:08,455
- I work for you now, not...
- I overreacted.
1048
00:54:10,081 --> 00:54:14,919
Back in Philly,
the arena I worked for filed bankruptcy.
1049
00:54:16,045 --> 00:54:17,255
And I saw it coming.
1050
00:54:17,964 --> 00:54:19,048
I looked the other way.
1051
00:54:19,924 --> 00:54:23,219
It's hard enough being the only female.
I didn't wanna be the scold.
1052
00:54:24,471 --> 00:54:27,015
But it wasn't them
that handed out the pink slips
1053
00:54:27,098 --> 00:54:28,475
when the place went belly-up.
1054
00:54:30,018 --> 00:54:32,270
My dad would never let that happen.
1055
00:54:35,940 --> 00:54:37,108
You left this behind.
1056
00:54:39,944 --> 00:54:41,529
I'd like to read it, if you don't mind.
1057
00:54:44,199 --> 00:54:45,200
No, not at all.
1058
00:54:46,701 --> 00:54:47,911
Enjoy your salad.
1059
00:54:57,003 --> 00:55:00,006
[Buss] All right! I need everyone out
here in the office! Boys, come on out!
1060
00:55:01,049 --> 00:55:03,218
Everybody! You too, Jerry! Let's go!
1061
00:55:03,301 --> 00:55:04,385
I need a word with you.
1062
00:55:04,469 --> 00:55:06,888
No, me first, Jerry. Pardon me, Linda.
1063
00:55:06,971 --> 00:55:09,033
I'm gonna steal your desk here
so everyone can see me.
1064
00:55:09,057 --> 00:55:11,059
Everybody! Let's go! Gather around.
1065
00:55:11,142 --> 00:55:13,186
Don't be shy! Listen up.
1066
00:55:14,437 --> 00:55:17,232
The Lakers franchise, as you know it,
1067
00:55:17,315 --> 00:55:20,318
dies right here, today.
1068
00:55:22,487 --> 00:55:24,072
No more covering our asses.
1069
00:55:25,073 --> 00:55:27,075
No more settling for good enough.
1070
00:55:27,158 --> 00:55:32,413
From here on out, we are playing to win!
1071
00:55:32,497 --> 00:55:34,082
Every game!
1072
00:55:36,334 --> 00:55:38,169
Now, it's gonna cost me some money,
1073
00:55:38,878 --> 00:55:40,088
and that's my business.
1074
00:55:41,172 --> 00:55:44,634
But the investment that I need
from each and every one of you
1075
00:55:45,885 --> 00:55:47,053
is everything else.
1076
00:55:48,179 --> 00:55:54,018
Whatever it takes to make
this organization a world champion.
1077
00:55:58,898 --> 00:56:00,608
So, Claire.
1078
00:56:01,276 --> 00:56:03,987
I'm gonna need some big ideas
from you, all right?
1079
00:56:04,070 --> 00:56:05,113
I need you.
1080
00:56:05,780 --> 00:56:08,783
Bill, Jerry, I understand
you're still building the roster,
1081
00:56:09,367 --> 00:56:11,035
but I have one question:
1082
00:56:11,995 --> 00:56:14,330
What's it take
to get us to the Promised Land?
1083
00:56:15,832 --> 00:56:18,167
- Well, I think we're almost there.
- Almost?
1084
00:56:18,251 --> 00:56:19,919
Yeah, there's, uh...
1085
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:22,505
just one piece that doesn't fit.
1086
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:25,466
Do not say Magic Johnson.
1087
00:56:26,801 --> 00:56:28,887
No. It's not him.
1088
00:56:29,554 --> 00:56:31,764
It's not? Fantastic!
1089
00:56:31,848 --> 00:56:34,058
You hear that?
That is progress right there.
1090
00:56:35,727 --> 00:56:36,728
Who, Jerry?
1091
00:56:39,355 --> 00:56:40,356
It's me.
1092
00:56:43,318 --> 00:56:44,360
[woman] What did he say?
1093
00:56:46,112 --> 00:56:48,114
You're gonna have to get yourself
a new head coach.
1094
00:56:56,205 --> 00:56:57,205
[scoffs]
1095
00:56:57,373 --> 00:56:59,208
