Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Welcome back to game seven of the UBA Finals.
00:00:03Unbelievable comeback.
00:00:05If the sniper can clinch a finals victory for the Lightning,
00:00:08he will be crowned the league's god of ball.
00:00:13Got this baby.
00:00:15You're one shot away from becoming a legend.
00:00:17I never could have done this without you.
00:00:19And after the win tonight, I'm done with basketball.
00:00:23I'm tired of the long nights and the weeks away.
00:00:25It'll just be us and our son.
00:00:32I love you.
00:00:34Kill him, sniper.
00:00:40The Lightning's down by one and the Scorpions have the ball.
00:00:43They need one more stop to get the ball.
00:00:45Tyler Murray shoots it.
00:00:47Oh, the sniper stole it.
00:00:50He's heading to the front court.
00:00:53We have three seconds left.
00:00:55Can the sniper save the game?
00:01:01This is for you, baby.
00:01:06There's the release.
00:01:08No, he missed.
00:01:10Wait a sec.
00:01:11Is that his signature move?
00:01:15The sniper's signature kill shot just won the league finals.
00:01:37I could have done this without you.
00:01:47The Sniper will never steal another trophy from me again.
00:01:58I got my win, and now we get our happily ever after.
00:02:10Regina, no!
00:02:23My son. Take care of my son.
00:02:28No!
00:02:33We've gathered here today to crown the season's MVP.
00:02:36A man who made the Lightning Champions.
00:02:39So put your hands together for the god of ball, a new league legend, the Sniper.
00:02:49After the death of the family member, the goat of basketball is retiring and disappeared.
00:03:00It was a robbery. A terrible accident.
00:03:03Don't give up your son, Marcel. You'll regret it forever.
00:03:07This never would have happened if I had made my wife a target.
00:03:11I'm not gonna put my son in danger, too.
00:03:27Basketball took everything from me.
00:03:33I'll never play again.
00:03:42How could I be so blind?
00:03:46I put basketball before my family.
00:03:49I put them in danger.
00:03:50This is what I just heard.
00:03:52Mars Davis, you're on fire.
00:03:54Does greatness run in the family?
00:03:56Who inspired you to pick up the ball?
00:03:58The Sniper. I mean, he's the best to ever do it.
00:04:01I'd give anything to train without lost legend.
00:04:03I was raised by my aunt after my alcoholic dad abandoned me.
00:04:06So any greatness you see, it's all me.
00:04:10My son doesn't know who I used to be, just who I was to him.
00:04:16It's been 20 years since my wife died.
00:04:18I picked up the bottle to numb the pain and never put it down.
00:04:21But Regina would hate to see me like this.
00:04:23A washed-up alcoholic, slinging burgers at a drive-thru.
00:04:28It's time to get my shit together.
00:04:32He's like the Steph Curry of burgers!
00:04:36Holy shit, I did it!
00:04:39Over 200 cars served per hour.
00:04:42You know what that means, guys.
00:04:44Bonus time!
00:04:47Biggest cut for me.
00:04:50Scotty didn't do shit.
00:04:52It's your math skills that broke a record.
00:04:54I'm the reason we got that bonus.
00:04:56You gonna deny me my cut?
00:04:58Buddy, you've been drinking on the job.
00:05:00I should fire your ass.
00:05:02Our janitor guy quit this morning.
00:05:05So either you walk out of here broke and jobless,
00:05:08or you go clean up the puke in the bathroom.
00:05:12I've lost everything.
00:05:13I won't give up my last shred of dignity.
00:05:16No thanks.
00:05:18I quit.
00:05:20You quit?
00:05:21Good luck.
00:05:22Who else is gonna hire a washed-up alcoholic?
00:05:32If the Lightning lose this playoff game,
00:05:35then the owner's gonna kill the team.
00:05:36I'm sorry.
00:05:39We need a Hail Mary.
00:05:51I haven't seen precision like that since the Sniper.
00:05:55Did I just find the lost basketball legend?
00:05:59Holy shit!
00:06:00That's Omari Gibbs!
00:06:02Yo, Mr. Gibbs, can I have one autograph?
00:06:04As a general manager myself, I'd be honored to-
00:06:07Hey, Marcel!
00:06:10Come with me.
00:06:12We need you back in the game.
00:06:26We need the Sniper as the Lightning's assistant coach.
00:06:30No way.
00:06:31And don't call me that.
00:06:33The Sniper died a long time ago.
00:06:34We have one more game to save this team.
00:06:37We need a miracle.
00:06:39We need you.
00:06:40I gave up basketball 20 years ago.
00:06:44I'm not your guy.
00:06:45Wait.
00:06:47I want to show you something.
00:06:51Pass your face!
00:06:52Screen up!
00:06:53D! D!
00:06:54Go, Mars!
00:06:55Get the basket!
00:06:57You know, Mars could be one of the greats.
00:06:59We don't win this playoff game.
00:07:02The owner's gonna sell.
00:07:03They'll rebuild.
00:07:04Rebrand.
00:07:05And Mars Correa will go down with this team.
00:07:09We're up against the 99ers.
00:07:11He can't beat them on his own.
00:07:13I never thought I'd give myself back.
00:07:16You could.
00:07:17If you coach him to the finals.
00:07:19He'll never respect you.
00:07:21Unless you show him that you deserve it.
00:07:23This is your chance to make a comeback.
00:07:27Marcel,
00:07:28I've seen you ruin your own life.
00:07:30Don't ruin your sons too.
00:07:37I'll do it.
00:07:39I'll do it.
00:07:45But no one can know who I am.
00:07:47And I'm only coaching them not playing.
00:07:49I'll never play again.
00:08:05All right, listen up.
00:08:07The only reason this sorry for an excused team squeaked into the playoffs is because of Mars.
00:08:14But there's no way we're gonna...
00:08:16I mean, there's not a chance we survive unless we...
00:08:18Dad?
00:08:22What the hell are you doing here?
00:08:28I'm your new assistant coach.
00:08:29What do they call you?
00:08:31Coach combo me up.
00:08:34No, no fucking way.
00:08:36He's an alcoholic loser.
00:08:38He couldn't even stay sober long enough to raise his own son.
00:08:42I spent my whole life trying to be the opposite of you.
00:08:46And now you come to my house to coach me?
00:08:49I don't think so.
00:08:51What the hell is Mari thinking?
00:08:52We need a miracle to win this final, not a drive-through drunk.
00:08:56No, what you need is better cuts, set some picks, and perfect your three-point game.
00:09:00You think it's that easy, old man?
00:09:03If you could hold on to the ball, what you lack in power you can make up for in precision.
00:09:07What do you know?
00:09:09The only thing I've ever seen you pick up is this damn flask.
00:09:14He's wasted.
00:09:15Don't hurt yourself, Gramps.
00:09:33Lucky shot.
00:09:35Don't let this drunk cunt fool you.
00:09:36When it comes to actual basketball, he's got nothing on me.
00:09:40What will it take for you to call me coach?
00:09:44A shooting contest.
00:09:46Three extreme shots.
00:09:48The fastest one to make him wins.
00:09:49If you win, you can stay.
00:09:51But if I win, you walk out.
00:09:55And never come back.
00:09:58I never wanted to play again.
00:10:00Especially not against my own son.
00:10:02But if I have to prove myself to protect him.
00:10:05Deal.
00:10:10Boris, do you really think it's a good idea to let your loser dad be the coach of our most
00:10:14important game?
00:10:16I don't know.
00:10:17Let him show us what he's got.
00:10:19He's a useless deadbeat.
00:10:21He'll gas out before he even hits the first shot.
00:10:27Alright.
00:10:28Three expert level shots.
00:10:29The step back three.
00:10:31The blind strike.
00:10:32And the clutch.
00:10:33Same sequence.
00:10:35Same time.
00:10:36You miss.
00:10:37You go again.
00:10:39No resets.
00:10:40No excuses.
00:10:42Three.
00:10:42Two.
00:10:43One.
00:10:45First up, the step back three point shoot.
00:10:48It's a difficult shot that requires pacing and core strength.
00:10:53How could he make it?
00:10:55Did you see that?
00:10:56Next up, the blind strike.
00:10:59It requires good memorization and a sixth sense.
00:11:04Even without looking.
00:11:08Bro, he's cooking you.
00:11:09Finally, the clutch.
00:11:11The most difficult shot you can do in the entire game.
00:11:14It means you're out of time and energy and you have one last shot.
00:11:17I've only seen one player pull it off 20 years ago.
00:11:21I'm rookie of the year.
00:11:22I mean, you're just some drunk patty pusher who works at a fast food joint.
00:11:25That shot.
00:11:25There's no way you can-
00:11:26You're gonna used to calling me coach.
00:11:34What?
00:11:44Who the hell is this guy?
00:11:46Why does he seem so familiar?
00:11:48The lightnings hail Mary.
00:12:03All right, everyone start sprints.
00:12:09Of course, you're the best player on this team.
00:12:12You can't just run off like that.
00:12:14You don't get to disappear for years and suddenly decide you're my dad again.
00:12:18Everything I have, I built by myself.
00:12:21Now, I'm not taking orders from you now.
00:12:23You can flash those fancy tricks all you want.
00:12:25But you don't actually know ball.
00:12:27You sure about that?
00:12:29Aunt Grace told me you played before I was born.
00:12:31But if you were any good, you wouldn't have become a worthless drunk now, would you?
00:12:34Unless this team wins tomorrow, your career is over.
00:12:37And I'm not gonna let that happen.
00:12:39We will win.
00:12:41It'll have nothing to do with you.
00:12:47I won't give up and walk away this time.
00:12:50I can't lose him forever.
00:12:53Son, wait!
00:12:58Okay, I'm sorry.
00:12:59Are you lost, Zippy Burger?
00:13:02Who did you steal this from?
00:13:06I didn't steal anything.
00:13:10So you're the Lightning's new assistant coach?
00:13:13Tyler Murray, my old rival.
00:13:16Recruiting from the drive-through.
00:13:19I mean, scraping the bottom of the barrel.
00:13:21How does it feel to play for a team that's about to be erased from league history?
00:13:24It'll feel great when we beat you.
00:13:27You won't even make it to the finals.
00:13:30The Lightning have been terrible ever since the Sniper went MIA, what, 20 years ago?
00:13:36Thanks to me, now the Scorpions rule.
00:13:38We should make it look like an accident.
00:13:40The Sniper will never steal another trophy from me again.
00:13:46And you're no Sniper.
00:13:47So I suggest you start burning your jerseys.
00:13:50You can learn how to flip burgers, work with this guy.
00:13:52Why?
00:13:53Because your basketball career?
00:13:55It's over.
00:13:56Don't talk to my son like that.
00:13:59So you're the alcoholic absent father.
00:14:02Ah.
00:14:03I can see why he wants nothing to do with you.
00:14:06Hey, don't you worry.
00:14:08You want your greasy dad here?
00:14:09You want your team straight to the ground?
00:14:11I'll let you be my ball boy.
00:14:22You should teach your boys manners.
00:14:24The 99ers are going to destroy you.
00:14:27So I suggest you get ready to be laughed off the court.
00:14:30I'll let the score speak for it, Sue.
00:14:40I'm about to coach a playoff game.
00:14:43I need to look the part.
00:14:51The Lightning started this season at the bottom of the barrel.
00:14:54But thanks to some stellar plays from rookie Morris Davis,
00:14:57they're in the playoffs going head-to-head with one of the league's top franchises.
00:15:01Coach Rush says their new assistant coach is a secret weapon.
00:15:04Is it true they recruited him from a fast food drive-thru?
00:15:25Is that the burger guy?
00:15:26No, but it can't be.
00:15:28They call him Coach Combo Meal.
00:15:31There's no way a guy like that can call game when he plays.
00:15:35Everybody expects us to fail tonight.
00:15:36But if we focus, stick to the game plan.
00:15:39We can prove the world wrong.
00:15:41It's your show, Coach.
00:15:42Good luck.
00:15:43Only if we played too.
00:15:45This team would be unstoppable if we got him out on the court.
00:15:48Time to break the curse.
00:15:50All in, Team Lightning.
00:15:58Don't let him fool you guys.
00:16:00Combo Meal talks up a big game,
00:16:02but he'll give up on you when you need him most.
00:16:04I'm not going anywhere.
00:16:05Let's win this.
00:16:06Lightning on three.
00:16:07One, two, three.
00:16:08Lightning!
00:16:15Remember this face.
00:16:16I'm the legend that's going to knock you and the Lightning out of this league for good.
00:16:36The ball movement, boys.
00:16:42Take it, baby.
00:16:48The shot.
00:16:50Who is that schlub playing?
00:16:51King Rush's assistant coach.
00:16:53It's Mars Davis's absent father.
00:16:56The guy's a total alcoholic.
00:16:58Clearly just a pity hire.
00:16:59Mars Davis's father.
00:17:01Why does he look so familiar?
00:17:04These losers are humiliating you.
00:17:07Let's go, boys.
00:17:09Alcoholic or not, he's got them playing like a whole new team.
00:17:13Boom.
00:17:16Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
00:17:18Wait.
00:17:20Move.
00:17:27What do you have to do?
00:17:40Where's the Fel, ref?
00:17:42Come on!
00:17:43Foul!
00:17:44Come on, man!
00:17:45Where's the Fel, ref?
00:17:50They can't beat us, so they're playing dirty.
00:18:10They're scared don't back down tell me what to do old man
00:18:20Stitches on Mars
00:18:22Yeah
00:18:22Yeah
00:18:23Yeah
00:18:24Oh
00:18:25Focus up behind the line
00:18:33Ah
00:18:35Get
00:18:45Yo
00:18:47What's wrong with you?
00:18:48Hey
00:18:48Hey
00:18:49Call it right
00:18:51Yo
00:18:51You blind ref?
00:18:54Red number 15 foul
00:19:01I can't go down
00:19:02Not like this
00:19:04This is a real blow for the lightning
00:19:07Unless Mars Davis makes a miraculous recovery, there's no way that they can come back from this
00:19:12I told you, they would dominate this team of washed up losers
00:19:21We're all out of subs, your last chance to win this, we have to forfeit
00:19:29Wait
00:19:31You've got your Hail Mary right here
00:19:34I already drew up a player contract just in case
00:19:36Your team needs you on the court coach
00:19:41You want me to play?
00:19:42You shoot with the best accuracy I've ever seen
00:19:45And between you and me
00:19:47I want the lighting to take those asshole 99ers down
00:19:51You can save us
00:19:52You can save us
00:19:53You'll win it all
00:19:56There's no way that this out of shape excuse for a coach can bring them back from an 8 point
00:20:01deficit in 15 seconds
00:20:03It's impossible
00:20:04Go out there coach
00:20:05And I'll knock you down so hard to know you back up
00:20:11If we lose
00:20:12It's all over
00:20:14A team
00:20:15My career
00:20:25If everyone finds out who I am, I put my son in danger too
00:20:30I'm sorry, I can't get back on the court
00:20:33I knew you were just a useless deadbeat
00:20:36All you ever do is quit
00:20:39I can't lose my son again
00:20:43Morfet! Morfet! Morfet! Morfet! Morfet! Morfet! Morfet! Morfet!
00:20:48Just team night lightning has no choice
00:20:53Wait
00:20:55Give me a jersey
00:20:57I'll play
00:20:59Can't wait for this greasy dick shit to fall flat on his face
00:21:03Wait a minute, is that the coach wearing a player's jersey?
00:21:07Is he gonna play?
00:21:10The coach is warming up now!
00:21:15I'm back!
00:21:19The sniper finally shoots again
00:21:22Damn, that coach cleaned up good
00:21:24He reminds me of one of those old school league legends
00:21:27Unless he's got the skills to match
00:21:29Unless he's got the skills to match
00:21:29The lightning can kiss their careers goodbye
00:21:30They've only got 15 seconds left to make an impossible comeback
00:21:34There's no way he can pull this off
00:21:38You know, when you lose it'll actually be nice
00:21:40I'll come by the restaurant
00:21:41You can both put the fries in my bag
00:21:43That old guy's not making it through our defense
00:21:48What is he doing?
00:21:50He's running the wrong way down the court
00:21:53What the hell's he doing?
00:21:55That loser's blowing the game
00:21:57What are you drunk old man or just lost?
00:22:00Is he trying to score?
00:22:01That's impossible
00:22:03Nobody could score from the backcourt
00:22:20No one's made a full court shot since the sniper
00:22:24Who is this guy?
00:22:50What the hell?
00:22:52How did he score from 94 fucking feet?
00:22:56No one's made a full court shot since the sniper
00:22:58Who is this guy?
00:23:00That's a record breaking shot
00:23:02I haven't seen Sal like that in 20 years
00:23:05The lightning's still down by 5
00:23:07With only 10 seconds left on the clock
00:23:09Back it up geezer
00:23:10Try that again
00:23:11You're gonna throw out your back
00:23:12You still need a miracle to win
00:23:15Coach, where'd you get those mad skills?
00:23:17We might have a chance
00:23:18Game's not over, full court press
00:23:20Got it
00:23:23Give it up old man
00:23:25It's too late
00:23:26You sure about that?
00:23:27When we win
00:23:28I'm gonna need you to apologize to my son for your foul play
00:23:31When you lose
00:23:32You and your joke of a son
00:23:34Are gonna leave this league
00:23:36And you can go back to what you're actually good at
00:23:38Flipping burgers
00:23:39You're on
00:23:47How are you supposed to win?
00:23:48You can't hold onto the ball
00:23:49This old man is too good
00:23:54For God's sake
00:23:55Someone stop him
00:23:57Seven seconds on the clock
00:23:58And only one basket away from tying the game
00:24:01If coach can pull off this shot
00:24:03He'll go down in league history
00:24:09Run down the clock
00:24:24Are we about to witness a miracle?
00:24:26With three seconds left the game is tied
00:24:28One more basket and coach combo makes history
00:24:32It's only three seconds left
00:24:34Can you really do this?
00:24:38Lightning on three
00:24:41One
00:24:41Two
00:24:42Three
00:24:43Lightning
00:24:45This one's for you son
00:24:53This assistant coach took the worst team in the UBA to the playoffs
00:24:58And now he's on the court
00:25:00Dominating guys half his age
00:25:02He came out of nowhere
00:25:03But he looks so familiar
00:25:10It'll all be worth it
00:25:12When you win
00:25:14And Murray gets us paid
00:25:32Let's go
00:25:33Whatever it takes
00:25:34You said that your eye for talent was unmatched Murray
00:25:39How did he get past you?
00:25:42I don't know
00:25:44Scoring in three seconds
00:25:45It's impossible
00:25:48If we lose
00:25:49We'll be the joke of the lead
00:25:51Then triple fucking team him
00:25:54Triple team won't work on me
00:26:11Oh my god, he has the ball
00:26:13That's a foul!
00:26:16That's a foul!
00:26:30See?
00:26:31See?
00:26:31I told you we'd choke!
00:26:32I don't choke!
00:26:33Let me remind you of who I really am
00:26:36Oh my god
00:26:37Oh my god, that's the sniper signature move
00:26:38It's the kill shot!
00:26:44I don't choke!
00:26:45Let me remind you of who I really am
00:26:47Oh my god, that's the sniper signature move
00:26:49It's the kill shot!
00:26:50Give me up!
00:27:22Could it be the Sniper?
00:27:25The missing god of balls?
00:27:35That was the Sniper's signature move.
00:27:39No one has been able to do that since he dominated the court.
00:27:44We've done it!
00:27:46Coach Carmobile and the Lightning go to the finals!
00:27:53This man just made history.
00:27:58That geriatric joke stole our spot in the finals.
00:28:02Congratulations on a hell of a final season, Coach Rush.
00:28:05Coach, you're retiring?
00:28:08I just needed to find my successor.
00:28:13When I first saw you come into practice with your drive-thru get-ups,
00:28:17I had no idea you were the legend.
00:28:18All of our success, thanks to you.
00:28:22I only played 15 seconds this season.
00:28:24You all won this game.
00:28:26This guy right here, Mars, 59 points!
00:28:33My 10 points would mean nothing without that.
00:28:37Good game, guys.
00:28:39We'll take that apology now.
00:28:41I'm not apologizing for shit.
00:28:45You got the win.
00:28:47All for you, son.
00:28:49Why'd you learn to play like that?
00:28:50It's almost like you're possessed by the Sniper or something.
00:28:53I thought the same thing.
00:28:55Your styles are almost identical.
00:29:00Are you him?
00:29:04Are you him?
00:29:09Sniper died a long time ago.
00:29:22How could he turn it around like that?
00:29:25Could he really be the Sniper?
00:29:27No way.
00:29:28The Sniper left the League decades ago, and he's never coming back.
00:29:32Well, she'd make it look like an accident.
00:29:35Sniper will never steal another trophy from me again.
00:29:40I made sure of that myself.
00:29:44Then if you lose in the finals to some burger-slinging deadbeat,
00:29:50your career in the League is over.
00:29:53You want to threaten me?
00:29:56I'm a champion.
00:29:58The League's best coach.
00:30:03Then prove it.
00:30:05Get the finals win, or clean out your office.
00:30:10What was that you said about the Lightning not making the finals?
00:30:14You got lucky.
00:30:16Getting a raging alcoholic and his greasy bandits aren't going to beat the Scorpion.
00:30:22We'll see you on the court, Murray.
00:30:26I'll do whatever it takes to make sure that finals trophy is mine.
00:30:29I'll do it again.
00:30:32I'll do it again.
00:30:32I'll do it again.
00:30:34I'll do it again.
00:30:34I'll do it again.
00:30:34I'll do it again.
00:30:35My God, he did it.
00:30:37No one's pulled off a win like that since the Sniper.
00:30:40Could it be?
00:30:41No.
00:30:42That guy dropped off the face here 20 years ago.
00:30:45Congratulations, Dean Langdon!
00:30:48Yeah!
00:30:49Yeah!
00:30:50Yeah!
00:30:50Yeah!
00:30:51Yeah!
00:30:52Yeah!
00:30:54Yeah!
00:30:55If you hadn't said it, Coach, we wouldn't be here without you.
00:30:57Max, you're the best coach I've ever had.
00:31:04That's why I want you to be our new head coach.
00:31:08But, Coach, you're the head coach.
00:31:10I've been trying to retire for years now.
00:31:13I just wanted to make sure the team would survive without me.
00:31:16What do you say?
00:31:19I'm honored, Coach, but I'm not the only leader on the team.
00:31:23What do you think, Morris?
00:31:24Mind if your dad sticks around for a little while?
00:31:28What do you think, Morris?
00:31:29Mind if your dad sticks around for a little while?
00:31:32You helped win us one big playoff game combo meal,
00:31:35but if you can get us that trophy,
00:31:37then maybe I'll call you coach.
00:31:39After my wife was murdered,
00:31:41I thought it was done with basketball forever.
00:31:43I never expected it could bring me back to my son.
00:31:46Coach Rush,
00:31:48I'd be honored to accept your offer.
00:31:50Yeah!
00:31:53I am not letting this fast food fraud get his greasy paws on my trophy.
00:32:11All right, everyone!
00:32:13Lightning on three!
00:32:15One, two, three!
00:32:16Not so fast.
00:32:24He assaulted my player.
00:32:27Challenging the call.
00:32:30Assaulted?
00:32:32You need to get your eyes checked.
00:32:33You elbowed him in the chest and he collapsed.
00:32:35I should have been a flagrant foul.
00:32:37It's a fair play.
00:32:38I had nothing to do with this.
00:32:39Bullshit!
00:32:40You knew that you couldn't compete with my number one draft pick.
00:32:43So while everyone was distracted with your unsportsmanlike flopping,
00:32:47you pushed him.
00:32:49You and your desperate son just wanted to ruin my career.
00:32:54You bitter old fuck!
00:32:57You just don't know real talent when you see it.
00:33:00Clearly, you don't know when to hang it up and let the next generation have their turn.
00:33:04You are a washed up alcoholic cheating your way to the finals.
00:33:08This team earned their position here.
00:33:11It's not our fault that you're afraid to face us in the finals.
00:33:13We should be playing in the finals game.
00:33:16You're just lucky that we're not going to press charges.
00:33:19My advice, go back to flipping burgers before you hurt someone else.
00:33:23Not a chance.
00:33:24What would you expect from a washed up alcoholic who steals the spotlight from his own son?
00:33:29The 99ers deserve a ticket to the finals.
00:33:32Unlike your entitled assistant coach.
00:33:35Hey, that's head coach.
00:33:38Maybe that was a mistake.
00:33:42I mean clearly he's not here for the team.
00:33:45He's just here for himself.
00:33:47I mean you took my spot in the game.
00:33:49What to prove that you're just some legendary baller?
00:33:51You haven't been sober my whole life.
00:33:53How can any of us trust you?
00:33:55My son still sees me as an absent alcoholic dad.
00:33:59Your son's right.
00:34:01I collapsed on court.
00:34:03He's an addict.
00:34:04Feels like he drugged me.
00:34:06You all saw the play. He didn't touch you.
00:34:08He's seen coach drink since he joined the Lightning.
00:34:11You know, you can all look down on me and my team. That's fine.
00:34:14But you can't deny the word of the commissioner.
00:34:16Beep. Beep.
00:34:19Beep.
00:34:21Congrats on the new job, Mr. Commissioner.
00:34:25What a marvelous win, old friend.
00:34:27You know, I cannot believe you found that guy at a Zippy Burger drive-through.
00:34:31You know, I bet he'd give the sniper a run for his money.
00:34:34Unless you're about to tell me that he is the sniper.
00:34:37My son made me promise to keep his true identity a secret.
00:34:40Everyone will find out when the time is right.
00:34:43Well, perhaps wishful thinking.
00:34:44Now that I'm commissioner, I get to choose the next basketball hall of fame inductee.
00:34:49If the lost god of ball has been found, it has to be him.
00:34:53Hold on, Mr. Commissioner.
00:34:57We need the commissioner down here, stat.
00:35:00I want him to look these clowns in the eyes and tell them that the Lightning made it to the
00:35:03final fair and square.
00:35:05Mr. Commissioner, we need you on the court. Let's go.
00:35:11And I don't play dirty.
00:35:12For accusing me, I take a look in the mirror.
00:35:17Don't be so naive.
00:35:19Addicts are pathological liars.
00:35:21Okay, he's fooled everyone.
00:35:22I bet that wasn't even the commissioner on the phone.
00:35:25Coach would never betray us like that.
00:35:28But the man I know had no problem dropping his family for the bottle.
00:35:32Yo, did Coach really do that?
00:35:34I don't know. He's got mad skills.
00:35:37Has he been hired this whole time?
00:35:42Clearly, this conniving junkie is dangerous.
00:35:47Stop!
00:35:56This is the most pathetic attempt at gaslighting I've ever witnessed.
00:36:00We all saw the play in super slow-mo. It was fair.
00:36:02So you think because you push papers and throw cash at washed up has-beens that you actually know bald?
00:36:11What the hell gives a woman like you the right to call fair play?
00:36:16Don't take the bait.
00:36:17Can't argue with someone who believes their own bullshit.
00:36:19Then maybe he should focus on the facts.
00:36:21Like how his team's reversals fell 30% this season.
00:36:26Congratulations, Coach.
00:36:29That ticket to the final should be mine.
00:36:32Hey!
00:36:46The Lightning won fair and square. Go home before I have you blacklisted from the league.
00:36:51Who the hell are you?
00:36:57That's the Lightning GM.
00:36:59He used to be coach of that whack-ass Eagles team that got cut from the league.
00:37:04Isn't that right?
00:37:05You don't have the authority to kick me out.
00:37:11What's this?
00:37:12Hank Santini, coach of the losing team.
00:37:14Are these your performance-enhancing drugs?
00:37:23I only answer to the league commissioner. I don't waste my breath arguing with losers.
00:37:30Mars and his coach worked miracles tonight. You don't deserve to step anywhere near that finals court.
00:37:37I'm the head coach of the top league franchise. You're just an old bag of bones who can't coach for
00:37:44shit.
00:37:45You should get yourself an apron and join him at the drive-thru.
00:37:51Boss, are you okay?
00:37:53Boss?
00:37:56Allow me to introduce you to Roderick Gould, the new league commissioner.
00:38:08Roderick Gould?
00:38:09Hey, this was just a big misunderstanding.
00:38:11Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. I have a concussion.
00:38:15You almost cost my son his chance at the finals.
00:38:18Both of you are a disgrace to our entire organization.
00:38:23You're blacklisted from the league.
00:38:25Mr. Gould, please look. Look, basketball. It's my life. Please, I will do anything.
00:38:30Save it. Get the fuck out of here before I call security.
00:38:34Go.
00:38:43I'm sorry I dabbed you.
00:38:44Don't blame me.
00:38:47I'm just not that guy anymore.
00:38:49How can I not tell you can ball like that?
00:38:52His face is so familiar.
00:38:54Team Lightning, I have never seen such a miraculous comeback in all my time with the league.
00:38:59Especially not by an assistant coach.
00:39:01You mean head coach.
00:39:06Congratulations. You're going to the finals.
00:39:08Yeah!
00:39:10Let's go, boys!
00:39:12You're going to the finals.
00:39:19You deserve it, son.
00:39:23Wrong.
00:39:24You saved the team that was almost sold for parts, man.
00:39:28Couldn't have done it without our star point guard.
00:39:35Means a lot.
00:39:39Mars, you remind me of the sniper when he was first coming up.
00:39:43Yeah?
00:39:44Thank you so much, sir. I mean, he's kind of my hero.
00:39:49He still doesn't know I'm the sniper.
00:39:51Would he believe me now?
00:39:53Would he understand why I left it all behind?
00:39:55Speaking of the sniper, your style on court looks almost identical to his.
00:39:59Did you train with him or something?
00:40:03Uh, I gotta meet the press.
00:40:05Uh, but I'll see you all at the finals.
00:40:07Excuse me.
00:40:09Let's take that trophy home, boys!
00:40:11Yeah!
00:40:13Sorry Zap and his son are not taking my trophy.
00:40:19It's a history-making day here at the league finals,
00:40:21with the Lightning facing off against the Scorpions.
00:40:24Team Lightning is the underdog, but with rising star Morris Davis
00:40:28and their wildcard coach, anything could happen.
00:40:31The Scorpions have championship coach Tyler Murray
00:40:34and his comeback king Cole Duncan.
00:40:37It'll take a miracle for them to win this.
00:40:40Where the hell is Mars?
00:40:42We barely made it through the playoffs.
00:40:44And the Scorpions, they body every single team they play.
00:40:48We need our star point guard.
00:40:51Have we heard from him yet?
00:40:56You got this team to the final, but if Mars is M.I.A.,
00:41:00they can be humiliated on that court.
00:41:04The Scorpions will do anything they can to tear us down.
00:41:07We won't let them win.
00:41:09You sure about that?
00:41:12You and your jacked-up team of amateurs.
00:41:15No match for us.
00:41:17Alright, the only hope you have is Mars.
00:41:20But, uh, where's he at?
00:41:24Does he know the game starts to now?
00:41:26Hope he turns up.
00:41:28Otherwise, you may as well forfeit.
00:41:40Come meet me on the 17th floor in 10 minutes.
00:41:42You're gonna come alone and you'll tell no one.
00:41:45Otherwise, you're never gonna see your son again.
00:41:51Take care of our son.
00:41:55I'm supposed to keep him safe.
00:41:59The game starts in an hour.
00:42:00You can't leave now.
00:42:01Mars doesn't show who's gonna stop.
00:42:02You figure it out.
00:42:03I have to find him.
00:42:05Let him go.
00:42:06It's his son.
00:42:10He'll come back.
00:42:23Welcome back, Mr. Davis.
00:42:24What the fuck, man?
00:42:27Let me go!
00:42:28Well, I can't do that.
00:42:30You're my leverage in this deal.
00:42:32Now, your dipshit daddy's got a shot clock that's ticking down.
00:42:35I want to see if he's gonna pick you or his basketball career.
00:42:38What do you think?
00:42:43Wow.
00:42:44Dad!
00:42:47You actually showed up.
00:42:48You picked your son over your own career.
00:42:51My father of the year.
00:42:54Tyler, your problems are with me, not my cellular.
00:42:56Damn right they are!
00:42:58I was born to be a winner.
00:43:01A winner!
00:43:02To have money and power and respect.
00:43:06I didn't claw my way to the finals just to have some loser who was fetching fries last week steal
00:43:12it from me!
00:43:12Cut him loose and we can talk about this.
00:43:19You want to talk?
00:43:20There is nothing to talk about.
00:43:22The stunt in the playoffs cost me a lot of money.
00:43:26And it almost exposes a very delicate operation.
00:43:30So you're gonna throw the game today.
00:43:32I'm gonna be champion.
00:43:34For what?
00:43:35I'm so glad you asked.
00:43:38Or...
00:43:40Your son is gonna suffer!
00:43:45Fine.
00:43:46We'll throw the game.
00:43:48What?
00:43:51Let me just untie him.
00:43:52You think I'm stupid?
00:43:54I'm just gonna take your word?
00:43:56No.
00:43:57I had my lawyers draft up.
00:43:59A nice little...
00:44:00Admission of guilt here.
00:44:03Says I, the head coach of the Lightning, admit to illegally rigging games for profit.
00:44:09Including the 2026 finals.
00:44:12Yadda yadda yadda.
00:44:13Blah blah blah.
00:44:14Sign this.
00:44:16Throw the game.
00:44:17And no one will ever find out about our little deal.
00:44:21This motherfucker's scared shitless!
00:44:23Don't sign anything!
00:44:32Your son has no manners.
00:44:36I guess that's what he gets when his daddy's an absent alcoholic.
00:44:41Now you're gonna sign the contract, or I'm gonna break his legs.
00:44:44Don't fucking touch him!
00:44:47Alright, you have five seconds.
00:44:50Or I'm gonna break him.
00:44:52He's bluffing, don't listen to him!
00:44:53Five.
00:44:56Four.
00:44:57Don't!
00:44:58Three.
00:44:58Again lifts like this!
00:44:59Two.
00:45:02One.
00:45:05Ah!
00:45:07Five.
00:45:09Four.
00:45:10Don't!
00:45:11Three.
00:45:12Again lifts like this!
00:45:13Two.
00:45:15One.
00:45:15One.
00:45:18One.
00:45:19One.
00:45:19One.
00:45:20One.
00:45:22One.
00:45:25One.
00:45:27One.
00:45:29One.
00:45:29One.
00:45:32One.
00:45:34One.
00:45:37One.
00:45:38I said, Father of the Year.
00:45:42Now, while I have you here, one more thing.
00:45:44I'm just going to need you to admit to what you just did.
00:45:47I need a little bit of extra insurance.
00:45:49I'm not going to confess to rigging games for profit.
00:45:51I signed the contract.
00:45:52That was the agreement.
00:45:54I'll splice something together.
00:45:56It's fine.
00:45:57This is blackmail.
00:45:59You won't get away with it.
00:46:03Watch me.
00:46:06Let's go, boys.
00:46:19Why the fuck would you agree to that?
00:46:22What did you want me to do?
00:46:23Let him break your legs?
00:46:24You'd never play ball again.
00:46:25No.
00:46:27I wanted you to fight for me.
00:46:29Our team.
00:46:30You bent the knee and gave up when it got hard.
00:46:33Just like you always do.
00:46:34I gave up my career.
00:46:36For you.
00:46:37Don't you get it?
00:46:39If you go down, I go down with you.
00:46:42I knew I should have sent your ass packing when I had the chance.
00:46:47I knew I couldn't count on you.
00:46:50Mars.
00:46:53Mars is right.
00:46:54If those bastards take the championship, then everything he worked for goes up in flames.
00:47:00The last time I won the finals, I lost everything.
00:47:20But I won't let that happen to my son.
00:47:22I won't let them win.
00:47:24But I can make them think that they're going to.
00:47:29Marcel, thank God.
00:47:30Are you and Mars?
00:47:31No, we're fine.
00:47:32I need a favor.
00:47:33We're on the street.
00:47:34It's Coach Murray.
00:47:35It's rigging games for profit.
00:47:39Welcome back to the 2026 UBA Finals.
00:47:45Tonight, we have the lightning playing against the Scorpions.
00:47:51This is the biggest rival in UBA history.
00:48:13The lightning and the Scorpion haven't met in the finals since 2006.
00:48:18Tyler Murray himself played in that game, but he fell to the sniper.
00:48:30Wait a minute.
00:48:31Coach Combo Meal is here?
00:48:37Coach Combo Meal is back on the court.
00:48:40You'd never know he was slinging burgers three months ago.
00:48:43I bet he couldn't pass up the chance to join his son Mars on the court.
00:48:47They'll go down in history as the first father-son duo to play together in a finals game.
00:48:52You showed up.
00:48:54You're just putting yourself in the game to make sure we lose.
00:48:57You see, I'm pretty surprised you suited up.
00:49:00Because you and I both know how this ends.
00:49:03That's what he thinks.
00:49:05What can I say?
00:49:06I couldn't resist one more shot on the court.
00:49:08Yeah, of course he couldn't.
00:49:11This team is already imploding.
00:49:13Getting this championship trophy will be a walk in the park.
00:49:16Well, gentlemen, I'd say good luck, but I just don't care.
00:49:22Scorpions, let's go.
00:49:29I'm on your side.
00:49:32Don't hold back out there.
00:49:37Don't hold back out there.
00:49:43I'm done listening to you.
00:49:57Son, right here.
00:49:58Mars!
00:50:08Guess what I was going to do to add?
00:50:15God!
00:50:19God!
00:50:23God!
00:50:28God!
00:50:30God!
00:50:34Cool Duncan is on fire.
00:50:37The scorpions are dominating.
00:50:39The lightning better step it up.
00:50:45Hey, hey.
00:50:47Fuck, fuck.
00:50:50Dude, what are you doing?
00:50:52Bro, why are you playing like you're alone?
00:50:55Just get back on defense.
00:51:18Halftime right now, the lightning's down by 12 points.
00:51:21Will they make a comeback in the next half?
00:51:24This is embarrassing.
00:51:27I can't believe I have to throw the biggest game of my career.
00:51:29I'm supposed to be the leader, but I'm just letting everyone else down.
00:51:34If no one else can step up, then we're doomed.
00:51:41Guys, this game is not over.
00:51:43We just need to reset, play as a team, and we can still win this.
00:51:47You're such a hypocrite.
00:51:49You're one to talk, ball hog.
00:51:51You're not passing the ball, bro.
00:51:53If we lose, it's your fault.
00:51:56That's what you think, huh?
00:51:58All of this, it's all his fault.
00:52:03It's all his fault.
00:52:04Coach hasn't been able to touch the ball because you refused to let it go.
00:52:08How is this his fault?
00:52:10You're fucking selfish.
00:52:11Selfish?
00:52:12Get the fuck out of here.
00:52:13It's not him.
00:52:14Enough!
00:52:15Enough!
00:52:17It's the finals.
00:52:18If you want to embarrass yourself, go home.
00:52:21You go home.
00:52:23Everyone out.
00:52:31Why'd you have to sign that goddamn contract?
00:52:34You fucked us.
00:52:35The contract is bullshit, Morris.
00:52:36I'm stringing them along.
00:52:38Robin is handling it.
00:52:40They're not going to win this.
00:52:41You're lying.
00:52:43You think I put this jersey on to fuck up your game?
00:52:45I'm here to make sure that nothing and no one gets in your way.
00:52:48Bullshit.
00:52:49They'll just let me down again.
00:52:51Morris, listen to me.
00:52:53When your mother was killed, I swore off basketball.
00:52:56And I was lost.
00:52:58But now I'm back.
00:52:59But I'm not back for me.
00:53:00I'm back for you.
00:53:02Now let's go out on that court together and destroy these motherfuckers.
00:53:10Welcome back from halftime.
00:53:12The Scorpions are dominating the game in the first half.
00:53:16Morris.
00:53:19God damn it!
00:53:22God.
00:53:25That's your star player?
00:53:28When you lose tonight, the lightning will be gone for good.
00:53:32I'll draft him just to keep the Scorpions bench warm.
00:53:37Morris is a goat in the making.
00:53:38He's about to be rookie of the year.
00:53:40Come on, boys.
00:53:41Let's go lightning!
00:53:43Come on.
00:53:44Get it.
00:53:48Guess I'm not as stupid as we thought.
00:53:53Dude!
00:53:54What the fuck?
00:53:56Don't sneak him out of the game.
00:53:57He's trying to lose.
00:54:04We can still win this.
00:54:06But you have to trust me.
00:54:08If we play together, they can't beat us.
00:54:11Morris, you've got everything you need right here.
00:54:14Let's go out there and win this for the team.
00:54:21For the team.
00:54:24Okay.
00:54:24and I'm going to
00:54:33go, go, go,, go, get up.
00:54:35Go, go, go pass.
00:54:37Go, go!
00:54:38Go, go, go!
00:54:38Go, go!
00:54:38Get up.
00:54:48Go, go.
00:54:49Let's go!
00:54:52Go, go!
00:54:53Go, go, go!
00:54:54Go, go, go!
00:55:04Mars Davis just executed the sniper's kill shot dunk
00:55:11It's the end of the third quarter
00:55:13Lightning is only down by two points now
00:55:16Could my dad be him?
00:55:18The sniper
00:55:20So these assholes want to die
00:55:27You will lose this game
00:55:28Or you and your son will commit career suicide
00:55:30I'm not scared of you
00:55:34Move
00:55:36It's the beginning of the fourth quarter
00:55:38The lightning are down by two
00:55:40Will they make their comeback?
00:55:43Yep
00:55:48Coach you're a legend
00:55:51If you want something done right
00:55:53You have to do it yourself
00:56:19What a comeback
00:56:21With father and son working as a team
00:56:24They might have a chance
00:56:26The lightning are up by one
00:56:27Can they keep the comeback?
00:56:31Whoa, hold on
00:56:32Is that Tyler Murray?
00:56:36Is this 2006?
00:56:38All we're missing is the god of ball himself
00:56:46If you're not going to lose
00:56:48I'll just have to be too fair and square
00:56:49The performance enhancing drug I develop
00:56:52Doesn't show up on any normal tests
00:56:53Team lightning won't know what hit them
00:56:56Show me what you got
00:56:57Coach
00:56:57Be prepared to lose
00:56:59It's been at least a decade
00:57:01Since Tyler Murray pre-ed in a professional game
00:57:04Then why does he seem so confident?
00:57:06Shovel up boys
00:57:07Guys, we're not leaving here without a trophy
00:57:09Full core press
00:57:10Let's go, lighting
00:57:12You know Mars could be the GOAT
00:57:13If you train with a better coach
00:57:15Yeah, but it'll never be you
00:57:16You can't control him
00:57:18But I can
00:57:27That's a foul, ref
00:57:30You okay?
00:57:31When did he get so good?
00:57:34Here, come on
00:57:36They're neck and neck
00:57:37Only two minutes left
00:57:39Team lightning is running out of time
00:57:52Go, go, go
00:57:55Come on, come on
00:57:56We have to win
00:57:56These losers can't beat us
00:57:58We win at any cost
00:58:00You get him
00:58:03Where are you gonna go now, dipshit?
00:58:07What?
00:58:08What?
00:58:08What?
00:58:19What?
00:58:22What?
00:58:25What?
00:58:28What?
00:58:29Are you going to get hit?
00:58:31Is it going to be khi?
00:58:33What?
00:58:34Who is it?
00:58:36What?
00:58:44Nobody's pulled that off since the guy who invented it.
00:58:49Game over.
00:58:51Unbelievable!
00:58:52What a comeback play from the Lightning!
00:58:54They just won the 2006 UBA Championship!
00:59:12Yes!
00:59:15You did it!
00:59:16We did it.
00:59:18You're gonna regret this.
00:59:19You have no idea what you've done!
00:59:21I don't think so, Coach.
00:59:23I know exactly what I've done, and I know what you've done, too.
00:59:27This is far from over.
00:59:29Let's go.
00:59:33Yeah, boys!
00:59:42I knew you'd pull it off, man!
00:59:45No one's gonna sell a winning team.
00:59:47Congratulations.
00:59:50If anybody was gonna save the Lightning from extinction, I knew it was gonna be you, Marcel.
00:59:55It'd be Mars, the new face of the league.
01:00:00Congratulations, Coach.
01:00:02Uh, don't tell anybody that I was rooting for you.
01:00:08And, uh...
01:00:09I came across this old basketball card.
01:00:15Where'd you get this?
01:00:17Is my dad really the sniper?
01:00:29Now for the presentation of the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy and the Michael Jordan MVP.
01:00:34Here is UVA Commissioner Roderick Gould.
01:00:39Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
01:00:42These finals have showcased the battle for greatness.
01:00:45With more talent on one court than we have ever seen before.
01:00:49But one incredible team prevailed.
01:00:52Congratulations, Team Lightning.
01:00:54You are the 2026 League Champions.
01:01:03We're not done yet.
01:01:05For MVP, this rookie grew into a star right before our eyes.
01:01:10Congratulations, Mars Davis.
01:01:13Yes.
01:01:13Yeah!
01:01:16Yeah!
01:01:20Yeah!
01:01:22Quick reflexes, Coach.
01:01:24I'd love to know what else you could do with those hands.
01:01:26Maybe I'll show you something else.
01:01:35Oh, God.
01:01:43Thanks for getting me home safe.
01:01:51If it isn't obvious, I like you, Marcel.
01:01:56You should share this to the champagne talking.
01:02:00Why don't you come find out?
01:02:10Close your eyes.
01:02:41You can open your eyes now.
01:02:47Damn.
01:02:59I want you to take me here against this window.
01:03:06Show me your full court press, Coach.
01:03:21You've got potential, rookie.
01:03:23Now we just need to work on your long game.
01:03:38Wrong time, bro.
01:03:40You better get a new suit.
01:03:41You're getting inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame tomorrow.
01:03:45Mort, I didn't join the league for glory.
01:03:48I'm just a man trying to make amends with his son.
01:03:50Well, you're also a legend who single-handedly led a dying team to a championship.
01:03:56I've invited Mars and your sister-in-law too.
01:03:59They deserve to see who you really are and how far you've come.
01:04:03Fine.
01:04:04Make sure the commissioner invites Coach Murray.
01:04:07And Cole too.
01:04:09You sure about that?
01:04:11Yeah.
01:04:13I got a plan.
01:04:21You look happy.
01:04:25And it's about to get even better.
01:04:28I got two tickets to the Basketball Hall of Fame Gala tomorrow night.
01:04:34Any chance you'd want to be my date?
01:04:37She has no idea it's me who's being inducted.
01:04:41I'd love to.
01:04:52Gentlemen.
01:04:59Well, well, well.
01:05:01What do we have here?
01:05:07Silver VIP tickets to the Basketball Hall of Fame ceremony.
01:05:12These clowns have no idea what the sniper has planned for them.
01:05:18Now, correct me if I'm wrong, Commissioner, but the silver tickets, they're exclusive for Hall of Fame.
01:05:23Same inductees, correct?
01:05:25There is something that ranks higher.
01:05:27And that is the gold commemorative ring which is presented to the inductee.
01:05:34But between you and me, we won't be revealing the guest of honor until the night of-
01:05:38Well, you know what? I'm just really happy you finally came to your senses.
01:05:42Recognize me as the UBA's true goat.
01:05:45Cole.
01:05:47It's time to start working on my speech.
01:05:50Ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:05:52And once I get on stage, I'll expose Coach Combo Meal for the game-rigging alcoholic he really is.
01:05:58And Glory will be mine.
01:06:10Well, I see you.
01:06:12You and Robin?
01:06:15What about?
01:06:16I know.
01:06:17She asked me to be her date to the Hall of Fame soon.
01:06:22Damn.
01:06:24I only give out 20 of these.
01:06:26But, you won't be needing that.
01:06:29Cause I got this.
01:06:35There's only one of them.
01:06:52I heard the league spent more money on this year's Hall of Fame ceremony than ever before.
01:06:57And no one knows who's actually been inducted.
01:07:00Whoever it is, he's a huge deal.
01:07:02My husband is on the board of directors, and even he had to fight to get us these general admission
01:07:08tickets.
01:07:14There's Tyler Murray, the famed head coach of the Scorpions, and his superstar, Cole Duncan.
01:07:19They've got silver VIP tickets.
01:07:22Could one of them be the inductee?
01:07:24Maybe.
01:07:25I don't know, but the true inductee will have a gold and silver ring engraved with his name.
01:07:37Cheers.
01:07:38Cheers.
01:07:47How the fuck did you get in here?
01:07:51I could ask you the same thing.
01:07:53This man is about to be criminally investigated for rigging games for profit this season.
01:08:03Yeah.
01:08:03This criminal shouldn't be allowed in here.
01:08:07Are you sure you're not the criminals?
01:08:10The criminals.
01:08:11We are silver VIP ticket guests of the commissioner himself.
01:08:17Thanks to me.
01:08:19Congratulations.
01:08:19Hey, there's only two of these silver VIP tickets, which means one of us is getting inducted tonight.
01:08:27Are you sure about that?
01:08:29We're the best in the fucking game.
01:08:31You're just a pathetic nobody.
01:08:33What do you know?
01:08:36Listen, you've had your fun playing pretend with the big boys in the league.
01:08:40But now it's time to go back to flipping burgers for minimum wage.
01:08:45Because you have no right to be here.
01:08:52Actually, I do.
01:08:55I do.
01:08:59Wow.
01:09:00A bronze VIP ticket?
01:09:02Not as exclusive as silver, but he must be someone important.
01:09:08I'm sorry.
01:09:08Did you forge a ticket just to crash the event?
01:09:14Security.
01:09:16This criminal is using a counterfeit ticket to sneak in here.
01:09:19Take a look.
01:09:21Judge for yourself.
01:09:29This ticket's legit.
01:09:34I told you.
01:09:36Robin invited me as her.
01:09:38Oh, yeah.
01:09:40I've seen you oogling over the league CFO Robin Sharp.
01:09:43What did you seducer with some witchcraft to get that extra ticket?
01:09:46Not cool, girl.
01:09:47Marcel, are you drunkenly harassing women in the workplace?
01:09:51You are pitiful.
01:09:52Just riding everyone's coattails around you.
01:09:55It's quite despicable.
01:10:00No.
01:10:01You're despicable.
01:10:11Tyler Murray.
01:10:13How dare you question my date's right to be here.
01:10:17A date?
01:10:20Oh, no.
01:10:21Don't tell me you find this alcoholic loser attractive.
01:10:24I find him incredibly sexy.
01:10:26Can't keep my hands off him.
01:10:29Oh.
01:10:32You know, you could have had a real man.
01:10:34With real money, real power.
01:10:35But instead, you chose a washed-up nobody
01:10:38that Team Lightning found working at a drive-thru.
01:10:41It can make sense, coach.
01:10:43Wow.
01:10:44You must have a really big...
01:10:48Actually, what makes more sense is this frigid spinster
01:10:51couldn't find a date for the event.
01:10:52So she paid this broke-ass loser so she wouldn't feel so lonely.
01:10:57So sad.
01:10:59You know, the Basketball Hall of Fame induction is a high-profile event.
01:11:04There's no place for a lowly escort.
01:11:11Don't touch her again.
01:11:15Coach won the final.
01:11:17But you lost.
01:11:20He's a total catch.
01:11:21Oh, my God.
01:11:22How can the CFO be so stupid?
01:11:24He was working at a drive-thru three months ago.
01:11:27Oh, you're telling me that when you pull up to get your nuggets
01:11:29and you see this greasy old man, you're gonna give him your number?
01:11:33Oh, he has you fooled too, doesn't he?
01:11:35I bet you didn't even think to ask.
01:11:38How does a bum like this working at drive-thru on the verge of homelessness
01:11:42get a job as a coach in the league?
01:11:44He's here now.
01:11:45That's irrelevant.
01:11:46Is it?
01:11:47Because the only logical explanation I can think of
01:11:49is that he has some dirt on the lightning jam of Mari Gibbs
01:11:53and he's using it as blackmail for the job.
01:11:58How did you get the job?
01:12:01How did you get the job?
01:12:08Omori and I played on the lightning together 20 years ago.
01:12:12What?
01:12:13You were in the league 20 years ago?
01:12:16No way.
01:12:17That's when I played and I would remember an ugly face like yours.
01:12:20So you're still lying.
01:12:2220 years ago, I was at the top of my game
01:12:24when my wife was murdered and I was left with my infant son.
01:12:28The sniper will never steal another trophy from me again.
01:12:34No way. That was his wife?
01:12:37I started drinking.
01:12:38I lost myself in the grief and the guilt.
01:12:41So I walked away from my son because I didn't want the terrible thing to happen to my wife to
01:12:46happen to him.
01:12:46So I changed my name and got a job at Sippy Parker.
01:12:49That's where I ran into Omori.
01:12:54What, now you're stealing the sniper's sob story?
01:12:57God.
01:12:57I bet he killed his wife.
01:13:00And that's why his son got taken away.
01:13:01And that's how you end up in a drive-thru.
01:13:08What the fuck?
01:13:17He had nothing to do with my mom's death.
01:13:22That's his son.
01:13:24The 2026 MVP, Boris Davis.
01:13:27He is a goat in the making.
01:13:29We've had our differences, but you are in no way responsible for my sister's death.
01:13:33Grace.
01:13:36I'm sorry, I should have called.
01:13:39Mars tells me you've been too busy winning championships.
01:13:47Maybe interrupt this precious family moment, but this doesn't disprove you killed your wife.
01:13:55Talk about my wife one more time.
01:13:57You see, this man is dangerous.
01:13:59Alright, your disgraceful father should be in a cell.
01:14:03Not the biggest basketball event of the year.
01:14:05And after I'm inducted into the Hall of Fame, I'll make sure you never touch a basketball again.
01:14:12You can't do that.
01:14:14Yes, he can.
01:14:18You can't do that.
01:14:20Yes, he can.
01:14:23That's Ben Billings, the owner of the most successful franchise in history.
01:14:28The Scorpions.
01:14:29I wouldn't fuck with him. They're done for.
01:14:32Tyler Murray is one of the most powerful men in this room.
01:14:35And with his silver VIP ticket, he's probably the guest of honor himself.
01:14:41When he tells you to jump, I'd say, how high?
01:14:47I don't jump off the court, especially for small men like you.
01:14:52You are ruining this prestigious event.
01:14:57Security!
01:15:01Remove this man.
01:15:04Get him out of here.
01:15:05Fast food fraud.
01:15:07Ruining everything.
01:15:08You're gonna regret sending me away.
01:15:12Who do you think you are coming in here and barking orders?
01:15:15I'm the most powerful man in this room, girly.
01:15:21So you better learn to respect me.
01:15:23Oh!
01:15:27You are hilarious, Benjamin.
01:15:30That's Commissioner Roger Gould.
01:15:32If anybody can set the record straight, it's him.
01:15:35You're about as powerful as a beetle under my shoe.
01:15:39If you're looking for the most powerful person in this room, look no further than the man in front of
01:15:44you.
01:15:45Hell.
01:15:48He's about to be the most powerful and influential man in the whole league.
01:15:57Hey, Roddy.
01:15:58Are you going senile already?
01:16:00No, are you?
01:16:01You hand-delivered us two VIP silver tickets.
01:16:04You know what?
01:16:05Maybe it's time to start thinking about an early retirement, because the league's going to shit under your management.
01:16:11And after I get into the Hall of Fame, my first order is going to be getting you removed.
01:16:18You think you're the one being honored here tonight?
01:16:22As long as I have a say, you will never make it into the Hall of Fame.
01:16:30Fine.
01:16:31Then it's Cole.
01:16:33And I taught him everything he knows.
01:16:35And he listens to me.
01:16:36So get ready to bend the fucking knee.
01:16:38Yeah.
01:16:39But you got to prove you're not useless.
01:16:42Get this old man out of here, and I might take it easy on you.
01:16:45You know, Cole's right.
01:16:46If he was the inductee, you would have the power to send me away.
01:16:50You're all right.
01:16:51I don't belong here with you.
01:16:55I belong on that stage.
01:16:57Behind the podium.
01:16:58The only person allowed up there is the legend who's being inducted tonight.
01:17:04You are a self-righteous, self-centered prick.
01:17:08You think that you're getting inducted?
01:17:10They haven't even announced who has the gold ring.
01:17:14You sure about that?
01:17:19What?
01:17:25That looks like the one and only golden ring.
01:17:29That means he must be the Hall of Fame legend.
01:17:33Holy shit, it's you?
01:17:36Okay.
01:17:37Now you're impersonating the inductee.
01:17:40Just when I thought you couldn't stoop any lower.
01:17:44I can believe it.
01:17:45He's willing to take his kid's achievement and treat them like his own.
01:17:50All right, all right.
01:17:51Where'd you steal this from?
01:17:52Check the name.
01:17:56No, it can't be.
01:18:10No, it can't be.
01:18:13You've been doing this from the college to induct a legend amongst men into basketball history.
01:18:18Please put your hands together and welcome into the Hall of Fame...
01:18:25Marcel Sniper-Wallace.
01:18:44Congratulations.
01:18:45Coach Combo Meals, the fucking sniper?
01:18:47No way.
01:18:48He conned you, Roddy, just like he conned this whole league.
01:18:52Look, I have proof that this man has been rigging games illegally for profit this season.
01:18:58Is this what you're talking about?
01:19:00I'm not going to confess to rigging games for profit.
01:19:03I signed that as the agreement.
01:19:05You forced me into it.
01:19:06Eh, good enough.
01:19:07I can splice something together.
01:19:09This is blackmail.
01:19:10You won't get away with it.
01:19:12Obviously, this is a setup.
01:19:13He's trying to frame me.
01:19:14Nice try.
01:19:15But Billings was apprehended earlier tonight, and guess what?
01:19:18He squealed like a pig.
01:19:19That's right, Murray.
01:19:20You and Billings have been rigging games right out of the league's nose for years.
01:19:25And that ends now.
01:19:29This is clearly some elaborate scheme to keep you people distracted from the fact that this
01:19:34man isn't who he says he is.
01:19:36I have had just about enough of you.
01:19:38I can prove that Marcel was and is the sniper.
01:19:52This is really you?
01:19:57I wanted to tell you sooner, but I wanted you to have your moment.
01:20:03I want to tell you.
01:20:04Fuck this!
01:20:05My guy, I just killed you instead of your useless wife.
01:20:08All of this would be mine.
01:20:10The championships, the glory, the...
01:20:14You?
01:20:15You accused me of killing my wife, and you know the reason she's dead?
01:20:20Pay back to me, or I will kill him for real.
01:20:24You accused me of killing my wife, and you know the reason she's dead?
01:20:28Pay back to me, or I will kill him for real.
01:20:40No one threatens my son.
01:20:53Enjoy prison, Tyler.
01:20:56Enjoy prison, Tyler.
01:21:01Tyler Murray, Cole Duncan, you're under arrest for illegally rigging league games for profit.
01:21:07You set me up, Billingsley!
01:21:08You're a cheater?
01:21:10A fucking murderer?
01:21:12I never should have hired you in the first place.
01:21:15From now on, my money's on tonight.
01:21:20Benny gave us everything that we needed for an outright case against you.
01:21:24And that was before you confessed to killing my wife.
01:21:26It's over, motherfucker.
01:21:28You promised you wouldn't say anything.
01:21:29You destroyed my career.
01:21:31I'm gonna fucking kill you!
01:21:33They're all gonna regret this.
01:21:35I'm gonna see every single one of you in court.
01:21:39That's what you did for my family.
01:21:57I am blessed to be here, to be honored as one of the greatest basketball players to ever play.
01:22:07But first, I would like to honor Regina Wallace, a mother and a wife taken too soon.
01:22:15But most of all, I'd like to thank my son, Mars.
01:22:19You gave me the courage to take my life back, and I wouldn't be here if you hadn't given your
01:22:24old man a second chance.
01:22:25I lost my mom, and my dad lied to me about who he was my whole life.
01:22:50So you've got your holo-themed title now?
01:22:52So what do you need me for?
01:22:58You were two weeks old when your mom was killed.
01:23:02I didn't know what to do.
01:23:03I didn't know how to raise you by myself.
01:23:06I had so much pain, and I just wanted it to go away.
01:23:12I needed you.
01:23:15You walked away when I was just a kid.
01:23:18I know.
01:23:19I abandoned you, Marsan.
01:23:22And I lived in fear and guilt, and I'm sorry.
01:23:27I want to believe him.
01:23:28But after a lifetime of empty promises, I'm scared he'll walk away again.
01:23:36These are for you.
01:23:4020 letters.
01:23:42I wrote one every year on your birthday.
01:23:47I never forgot you.
01:23:59I love you.
01:24:02Some pardon.
01:24:07I can't believe the sniper's my dad.
01:24:11There's a lot of things you don't know about me.
01:24:15Like how you're hooking up with the CFO of the UBA?
01:24:21Mom would want you to be happy.
01:24:24So do I, I guess.
01:24:34I can't believe I'm dating the sniper.
01:24:43Your son's lucky to have you.
01:24:46I'm lucky one.
01:24:49Hey, Mars.
01:24:52You want to get a burger?
01:24:57I'll see you later.
