Short filmTranscript
00:00Welcome back to game seven of the UBA finals.
00:04Unbelievable comeback.
00:05If the sniper can clinch a finals victory for the Lightning,
00:08he will be crowned the league's god of ball.
00:13Got this baby.
00:15You're one shot away from becoming a legend.
00:17I never could have done this without you.
00:19And after the win tonight, I'm done with basketball.
00:23I'm tired of the long nights and the weeks away.
00:25It'll just be us and our son.
00:32I love you.
00:34Kill him, sniper.
00:40The Lightning's down by one and the Scorpions have the ball.
00:43They need one more stop to get the ball.
00:45Tyler Murray shoots it.
00:47Oh, the sniper stole it.
00:50He's heading to the front court.
00:53We have three seconds left.
00:55Can the sniper save the game?
01:01This is for you, baby.
01:06There's the release.
01:08No, he missed.
01:10Wait a sec.
01:11Is that his signature move?
01:15The sniper's signature kill shot just won the league finals.
01:37I could have done this without you.
01:39I could have done this without you.
01:49Another trophy from me again.
01:59I got my win.
02:00And now we get our happily ever after.
02:10Regina, no!
02:14No!
02:23Marcel.
02:25Take care of my son.
02:28No!
02:33We've gathered here today to crown the season's MVP, a man
02:37who made the Lightning champions.
02:39So put your hands together for the god of ball, a new league
02:43legend, the sniper.
02:49After the death of the family member, the goat of basketball
02:52is retiring and disappeared.
03:00It was a robbery, a terrible accident.
03:03Don't give up your son, Marcel.
03:05You'll regret it forever.
03:07This never would have happened if I had made my wife a target.
03:11I'm not going to put my son in danger, too.
03:13I'm not going to put my son in danger, too.
03:27Basketball took everything from me.
03:33I'll never play again.
03:42How could I be so blind?
03:46I put basketball before my family.
03:49I put them in danger.
03:50This is what I deserve.
03:52Lars Davis, you're on fire.
03:54This greatness run in the family.
03:56Who inspired you to pick up the ball?
03:58The sniper.
03:59I mean, he's the best to ever do it.
04:01I'd give anything to train without lost legend.
04:03I was raised by my aunt after my alcoholic dad abandoned me.
04:07So any greatness you see, it's all me.
04:10My son doesn't know who I used to be, just who I was to him.
04:16It's been 20 years since my wife died.
04:18I picked up the bottle to numb the pain and never put it down.
04:22But Regina would hate to see me like this.
04:23A washed up alcoholic, slinging burgers at a drive-thru.
04:28It's time to get my shit together.
04:32He's like the Steph Curry of burgers.
04:36Holy shit, I did it.
04:39Over 200 cars served per hour.
04:42You know what that means, guys.
04:44Bonus time.
04:47Biggest cut for me.
04:50Scotty didn't do shit.
04:52It's your math skills that broke the record.
04:54I'm the reason we got that bonus.
04:56You're going to deny me my cut?
04:57Buddy, you've been drinking on the job.
05:00I should fire your ass.
05:02Our janitor guy quit this morning.
05:05So either you walk out of here broke and jobless,
05:08or you go clean up the puke in the bathroom.
05:12I've lost everything.
05:13I won't give up my last shred of dignity.
05:16No thanks.
05:18I quit.
05:20Quit?
05:21Good luck.
05:22Who else is going to hire a washed up alcoholic?
05:32If the Lightning lose this playoff game,
05:35then the owner's going to kill the team.
05:37I'm sorry.
05:39We need a Hail Mary.
05:52I haven't seen precision like that since the sniper.
05:55Did I just find the lost basketball legend?
05:59Holy shit.
06:00That's Omari Gibbs.
06:02Yo, Mr. Gibbs, can I have one autograph?
06:04As a general manager myself, I'd be honored to...
06:07Hey, Marcel.
06:10Come with me.
06:12We need you back in the game.
06:26I need the sniper as the Lightning's assistant coach.
06:30No way.
06:31And don't call me that.
06:33The sniper died a long time ago.
06:34We have one more game to save this team.
06:37We need a miracle.
06:39We need you.
06:40I gave up basketball 20 years ago.
06:44I'm not your guy.
06:45Wait.
06:47I want to show you something.
06:51Pass your faith.
06:52Screen up.
06:53D, D.
06:54Go, Mars.
06:55Get the basket.
06:56Ah.
06:57You know, Mars could be one of the greats.
06:59We don't win this playoff game.
07:01The owner's going to sell.
07:03They'll rebuild.
07:04Rebrand.
07:05And Mars Correa will go down with this team.
07:09We'll up against the 99ers.
07:11He can't beat them on his own.
07:13I never thought I'd give myself back.
07:16You could.
07:17If you coach him to the finals.
07:19He'll never respect you.
07:21Unless you show him that you deserve it.
07:23This is your chance to make a comeback.
07:27Marcel.
07:28I've seen you ruin your own life.
07:30Don't ruin your sons, too.
07:37Fine.
07:39I'll do it.
07:45But no one can know who I am.
07:47And I'm only coaching.
07:48I'm not playing.
07:50Never play again.
07:56I can't.
08:05All right.
08:06Listen up.
08:07The only reason this sorry for an excused team squeaked into the playoffs is because of Mars.
08:14But there's no way we're going to.
08:16I mean, there's not a chance we survive unless we.
08:18Dad?
08:22What the hell are you doing here?
08:28I'm your new assistant coach.
08:29What do they call you?
08:31Coach combo me up.
08:34No, no fucking way.
08:36He's an alcoholic loser.
08:38He couldn't even stay sober long enough to raise his own son.
08:42Listen, I spent my whole life trying to be the opposite of you.
08:46Now you come to my house to coach me?
08:49I don't think so.
08:51What the hell is Amari thinking?
08:52We need a miracle to win this final, not a drive-thru drunk.
08:56No, what you need is better cuts, set some picks, and perfect your three-point game.
09:00You think it's that easy, old man?
09:03If you could hold on to the ball, what you lack in power you can make up for in precision.
09:07What do you know?
09:09The only thing I've ever seen you pick up is this damn flask.
09:14He's wasted.
09:15Don't hurt yourself, Gramps.
09:33Lucky shot.
09:35Don't let this drunk cunt fool you.
09:37When it comes to actual basketball, he's got nothing on me.
09:40What will it take for you to call me coach?
09:44A shooting contest.
09:46Three extreme shots.
09:48Fast one to make him wins.
09:49If you win, you can stay.
09:51But if I win, you walk out.
09:55And never come back.
09:58I never wanted to play again.
10:00Especially not against my own son.
10:02But if I have to prove myself to protect him, deal.
10:10Morris, do you really think it's a good idea to let your loser dad be the coach of our most
10:14important game?
10:16I don't know.
10:18Let him show us what he's got.
10:19He's a useless deadbeat.
10:21He'll gas out before he even hits the first shot.
10:27All right.
10:28Three expert-level shots.
10:29The step-back three, the blind strike, and the clutch.
10:33Same sequence, same time.
10:36You miss, you go again.
10:38No resets, no excuses.
10:42Three, two, one.
10:46First up, the step-back three-point shoot.
10:49It's a difficult shot that requires pacing and core strength.
10:53How could he make it?
10:55Did you see that?
10:56Next up, the blind strike.
10:59It requires good memorization and a sixth sense.
11:04Even without looking.
11:08Bro, he's cooking you!
11:09Finally, the clutch.
11:11The most difficult shot you can do in the entire game.
11:14It means you're out of time and energy, and you have one last shot.
11:18I've only seen one player pull it off 20 years ago.
11:21I'm rookie of the year, and you're just some drunk patty pusher who works at a fast food joint.
11:25That shot.
11:25There's no way you could...
11:26You're gonna use the call to me coach.
11:44Who the hell is this guy?
11:46Why does he seem so familiar?
11:48The lightnings hail Mary.
12:03All right.
12:04Everyone start sprints.
12:10Lars, you're the best player on this team.
12:12You can't just run off like that.
12:14You don't get to disappear for years and suddenly decide you're my dad again.
12:18Everything I have, I built by myself.
12:21Now, I'm not taking orders from you now.
12:23You can flash those fancy tricks all you want, but you don't actually know ball.
12:27You sure about that?
12:29Aunt Grace told me you played before I was born, but if you were any good, you wouldn't
12:32have become a worthless drunk now, would you?
12:34Unless this team wins tomorrow, your career is over, and I'm not gonna let that happen.
12:39We will win, and it'll have nothing to do with you.
12:47I won't give up and walk away this time.
12:50I can't lose him forever.
12:53Son, wait.
12:58Okay, I'm sorry.
12:59Are you lost, Zippy Burger?
13:02Who did you steal this from?
13:06I didn't steal anything.
13:10So you're the lightnings new assistant coach?
13:13Tyler Murray, my old rival.
13:16Recruiting from the drive-thru.
13:19I mean, scraping the bottom of the barrel.
13:20How does it feel to play for a team that's about to be erased from league history?
13:25It'll feel great when we beat you.
13:27You won't even make it to the finals.
13:30The lightning have been terrible ever since the sniper went MIA, what, 20 years ago?
13:36Thanks to me, now the scorpions rule.
13:38I should make it look like an accident.
13:40The sniper will never steal another trophy from me again.
13:46And you're no sniper.
13:47So I suggest you start burning your jerseys.
13:50You can learn how to flip burgers, work with this guy.
13:53Because your basketball career, it's over.
13:56Don't talk to my son like that.
13:59So you're the alcoholic absent father.
14:02Ah.
14:03I can see why he wants nothing to do with you.
14:06Hey, don't you worry.
14:08Want your greasy dad here, want your team straight to the ground?
14:11I'll let you be my ball boy.
14:22You should teach your boys manners.
14:24The 99ers are going to destroy you.
14:27So I suggest you get ready to be laughed off the court.
14:31I'll let the score speak for it, Sue.
14:40I'm about to coach a playoff game.
14:43I need to look the part.
14:51The Lightning started this season at the bottom of the barrel.
14:54But thanks to some stellar plays from rookie Morris Davis,
14:57they're in the playoffs, going head-to-head with one of the league's top franchises.
15:01Coach Rush says their new assistant coach is a secret weapon.
15:04Is it true they recruited him from a fast-food drive-thru?
15:25Is that the burger guy?
15:26No.
15:27It can't be.
15:28They call him Coach Combo Meal.
15:31There's no way a guy like that can call game when he plays.
15:35Everybody expects us to fail tonight.
15:36But if we focus, stick to the game plan.
15:39We can prove them both wrong.
15:41It's your show, Coach.
15:42Good luck.
15:43Only if we played two.
15:45This team would be unstoppable if we got him out on the court.
15:48Time to break the curse.
15:50All in, Team Lightning.
15:58Don't let him fool you guys.
16:00Combo Meal talks up a big game, but he'll give up on you when you need him most.
16:04I'm not going anywhere.
16:05Let's win this.
16:06Lightning on three.
16:07One, two, three.
16:08Lightning!
16:15Remember this face.
16:16I'm the legend that's going to knock you and the Lightning out of this league for good.
16:36The ball movement, boys.
16:44Take it, baby.
16:48The shot!
16:50Who is that schlub playing Russia's assistant coach?
16:53It's Mars Davis' absent father.
16:56Guy's a total alcoholic.
16:58Clearly just a pity hire.
16:59Mars Davis' father?
17:01Why does he look so familiar?
17:04These losers are humiliating you!
17:07Let's go, boys!
17:10Alcoholic or not, he's got them playing like a whole new team.
17:16Go, go, go, go, go, go!
17:18Wait, oh!
17:20Go!
17:27What do you want to do?
17:29I'm sorry.
17:40Where's the foul, ref?
17:42Come on!
17:43Foul!
17:44Come on, man!
17:45Where's the foul, ref?
17:50They can't beat us, so they're playing dirty.
17:57Foul, ref!
17:57Come on!
18:10They're scared.
18:11Don't back down.
18:12Don't tell me what to do, old man.
18:20Stitches on Mars!
18:27Focus up, behind the line.
18:35Get it!
18:52You blind, ref?
18:55Red, number 15, foul.
18:57Go!
19:00I can't go down.
19:02Not like this.
19:03You're okay, stay up.
19:05This is a real blow for the Lightning.
19:07Unless Mars Davis makes a miraculous recovery, there's no way that they can come back from
19:12this.
19:12I told you they would dominate this team of washed-up losers.
19:22We're all out of subs, here's your last chance to win this.
19:25We have to forfeit.
19:29Wait.
19:31You've got your Hail Mary, right here.
19:34I already drew up a player contract, just in case.
19:37Your team needs you on the court, coach.
19:41You want me to play?
19:42You shoot with the best accuracy I've ever seen.
19:45And between you and me, I want the lighting to take those asshole 99ers down.
19:51You can save us.
19:52I'll win it all.
19:56There's no way that this out-of-shape excuse for a coach can bring them back from an eight-point
20:01deficit in 15 seconds.
20:03It's impossible.
20:04Go out there, coach.
20:06And I'll knock you down so hard, you know you'd back up.
20:11If we lose, it's all over.
20:14The team, my career.
20:25If everyone finds out who I am, will I put my son in danger, too?
20:30I'm sorry, I can't get back on the court.
20:34I knew you were just a useless deadbeat.
20:36All you ever do is quit.
20:39I can't lose my son again.
20:48This team, my lightning, has no choice.
20:53Wait.
20:55Give me a jersey.
20:57I'll play.
20:59Can't wait for this greasy dick shit to fall flat on his face.
21:03Wait a minute.
21:04Is that the coach wearing a player's jersey?
21:07Is he gonna play?
21:10The coach is warming up now.
21:15I'm back.
21:19The sniper finally shoots again.
21:22Damn, that coach cleaned up good.
21:24He reminds me of one of those old school league legends.
21:27The less he's got the skills to match, the lightning can kiss their careers goodbye.
21:31They've only got 15 seconds left to make an impossible comeback.
21:34There's no way he can pull this off.
21:37You know, when you lose, it'll actually be nice.
21:40I'll come by the restaurant.
21:41You can both put the fries in my bag.
21:44That old guy's not making it through our defense.
21:48What is he doing?
21:50He's running the wrong way down the court.
21:54What the hell's he doing?
21:55That loser's blowing the game.
21:57What, are you drunk, old man, or just lost?
22:00Is he trying to score?
22:01That's impossible.
22:03Nobody could score from the backcourt.
22:20No one's made a full court shot since the sniper.
22:23Who is this guy?
22:57That's a record-breaking shot.
23:02I haven't seen style like that in 20 years.
23:05The lightning's still down by five with only 10 seconds left on the clock.
23:09Back it up, geezer.
23:10Try that again, you're going to throw out your back.
23:12You still need a miracle to win.
23:15Coach, where'd you get those mad skills?
23:17We might have a chance.
23:18Give us on over.
23:19Full court press.
23:20Got it.
23:24Give it up, old man.
23:25It's too late.
23:26You sure about that?
23:27When we win, I'm going to need you to apologize to my son for your foul play.
23:31When you lose, you and your joke of a son are going to leave this league, and you can
23:36go back to what you're actually good at.
23:38Flipping burgers.
23:39You're on.
23:47How are you supposed to win?
23:48You can't hold on to the ball.
23:49This old man is too good.
23:54For God's sake, someone stop him!
23:57Seven seconds on the clock, and only one basket away from tying the game.
24:01If Coach can pull off this shot, he'll go down in league history.
24:09Run down the clock!
24:24Are we about to witness a miracle?
24:26With three seconds left, the game is tied.
24:29One more basket, and Coach Combo makes history.
24:33It's only three seconds left.
24:34Can you really do this?
24:38Lightning on three.
24:41One, two, three.
24:43Lightning!
24:46This one's for you, son.
24:53This assistant coach took the worst team in the UBA to the playoffs, and now he's on
24:59the court, dominating guys half his age.
25:02He came out of nowhere, but he looked so familiar.
25:10He'll all be worth it when you win, and Murray gets us paid.
25:32Let's go.
25:33Whatever it takes.
25:35You said that your eye for talent was unmatched, Murray.
25:39How did he get past you?
25:42I don't know.
25:44Scoring in three seconds, it's impossible.
25:48If we lose, we'll be the joke of the lead.
25:51Then triple fucking team him!
25:55Triple team won't work on me.
26:11Oh my God, he has the ball.
26:16That's a foul!
26:30See?
26:31I told you we'd choke.
26:32I don't choke.
26:33Let me remind you of who I really am.
26:36Oh my God, that's the sniper's signature move!
26:38It's the kill shot!
26:44I don't choke.
26:45Let me remind you of who I really am.
26:47Oh my God, that's the sniper's signature move!
26:50It's the kill shot!
26:56Oh my God, that's the kill shot!
27:22Could it be the sniper?
27:25The missing god of ball?
27:35That was the sniper's signature move!
27:39No one has been able to do that since he dominated the court!
27:44He's done it!
27:46Coach Carmobile and the Lightning go to the finals!
27:53This man just made history.
27:58That geriatric joke stole our spot in the finals.
28:02Congratulations on a hell of a final season, Coach Rush.
28:05Coach, you're retiring?
28:08I just needed to find my successor.
28:13When I first saw you come into practice with your drive-thru get-ups, I had no idea you were
28:18the legend.
28:19All of our success, thanks to you, I only played 15 seconds this season.
28:24You all won this game.
28:26This guy right here, Mars, 59 points.
28:33My 10 points would mean nothing without that.
28:37Good game, guys.
28:39We'll take that apology now.
28:41I'm not apologizing for shit.
28:45You got the win.
28:47All for you, son.
28:48How did you learn to play like that?
28:50It's almost like you're possessed by the sniper or something.
28:53I thought the same thing.
28:55Your styles are almost identical.
29:00Are you him?
29:04Are you him?
29:09Sniper died a long time ago.
29:22How could he turn it around like that?
29:25Could he really be the sniper?
29:27No way.
29:28The sniper left the league decades ago.
29:31And he's never coming back.
29:33Well, she'd make it look like an accident.
29:35Sniper will never steal another trophy from me again.
29:39I made sure of that myself.
29:44Then if you lose in the finals to some burger-slinging deadbeat,
29:50your career in the league is over.
29:53You want to threaten me?
29:56I'm a champion.
29:58The league's best coach.
30:01Wow.
30:03Then prove it.
30:05Get the finals win or clean out your office.
30:11What was that you said about the lightning not making the finals?
30:14You got lucky.
30:16Getting a raging alcoholic and his greasy bandits aren't going to beat the scorpion.
30:22We'll see you on the court, Murray.
30:26I'll do whatever it takes to make sure that finals trophy is mine.
30:29I'll do whatever it takes to make sure that it's mine.
30:32I'll do whatever it takes to make sure that it's mine.
30:32I'm so scared.
30:33I'm so scared.
30:33Look.
30:35My God, he did it.
30:37No one's pulled off a win like that since the sniper.
30:40Could it be?
30:41No.
30:42That guy dropped off the face here 20 years ago.
30:45Congratulations, Dean Lighting Day!
30:54Front and center, coach.
30:55We wouldn't be here without you.
30:57Max, you're the best coach I've ever had.
31:04That's why I want you to be our new head coach.
31:08But coach, you're the head coach.
31:10I've been trying to retire for years now.
31:13I just wanted to make sure the team would survive without me.
31:16What do you say?
31:19I'm honored, coach, but I'm not the only leader on the team.
31:23What do you think, Morris?
31:24Mind if your dad sticks around for a little while?
31:28What do you think, Morris?
31:29Mind if your dad sticks around for a little while?
31:32You helped win us one big playoff game combo meal,
31:35but if you can get us that trophy,
31:37then maybe I'll call you, coach.
31:39After my wife was murdered,
31:41I thought it was done with basketball forever.
31:43I never expected it could bring me back to my son.
31:46Coach Rush,
31:48I'd be honored to accept your offer.
31:50Okay!
31:53I am not letting this fast food fraud
31:56get his greasy paws on my trophy.
32:00Okay.
32:11All right, everyone.
32:13Lightning on three.
32:14One, two, three.
32:17Not so fast.
32:24He assaulted my player.
32:27Challenging the call.
32:30Assaulted?
32:32You need to get your eyes checked.
32:33You elbowed him in the chest,
32:35and he collapsed.
32:36I should have been a flagrant foul.
32:37It's a fair play.
32:38I had nothing to do with this.
32:39Bullshit!
32:40You knew that you couldn't compete
32:42with my number one draft pick.
32:43So while everyone was distracted
32:45with your unsportsmanlike flopping,
32:47you pushed him.
32:49You and your desperate son
32:51just wanted to ruin my career.
32:54You bitter old fuck.
32:57You just want no real talent
32:59when you see it.
33:00Clearly,
33:01you don't know when to hang it up
33:02and let the next generation
33:03have their turn.
33:04You are a washed-up alcoholic
33:06cheating your way to the finals.
33:08This team earned their position here.
33:11It's not our fault
33:12that you're afraid to face us
33:13in the finals.
33:13We should be playing
33:14in the finals game.
33:16You're just lucky
33:17that we're not going to press charges.
33:19My advice,
33:20go back to flipping burgers
33:21before you hurt someone else.
33:23Not a chance.
33:24What would you expect
33:26from a washed-up alcoholic
33:27who steals the spotlight
33:28from his own son?
33:30The 99ers deserve a ticket
33:31to the finals,
33:32unlike your entitled
33:33assistant coach.
33:35Hey, that's head coach.
33:38Maybe that was a mistake.
33:42I mean, clearly,
33:43he's not here for the team.
33:45He's just here for himself.
33:47I mean, you took my spot
33:48in the game.
33:49What, to prove that you're
33:50just some legendary baller?
33:51You haven't been sober
33:52my whole life.
33:53How can any of us
33:54trust you?
33:55My son still sees me
33:57as an absent alcoholic dad.
34:00Your son's right.
34:01I collapsed on the court.
34:03He's an addict.
34:04Feels like he drugged me.
34:06You all saw the play.
34:07He didn't touch you.
34:08I've seen coach drink
34:09since he joined the Lightning.
34:11You know, you can all look down
34:12on me and my team.
34:13That's fine.
34:14But you can't deny
34:15the word of the commissioner.
34:22Congrats on the new job,
34:23Mr. Commissioner.
34:25What a marvelous win,
34:26old friend.
34:27You know, I cannot believe
34:29you found that guy
34:30at a Zippy Burger
34:30drive-thru.
34:31You know, I bet he'd give
34:33the sniper a run
34:33for his money.
34:34Unless you're about to tell me
34:36that he is the sniper.
34:37My son made me promise
34:38to keep his true identity
34:39a secret.
34:40Everyone will find out
34:41when the time is right.
34:42Well, perhaps wishful thinking.
34:44Now that I'm commissioner,
34:45I get to choose
34:46the next basketball
34:47hall of fame inductee.
34:49If the lost god
34:50of ball has been found,
34:51it has to be him.
34:53Hold on, Mr. Commissioner.
34:57We need the commissioner
34:58down here to stat.
35:00I want him to look
35:01these clouds in the eyes
35:01and tell them
35:02that the Lightning
35:02made it to the final
35:03fair and square.
35:05Mr. Commissioner,
35:06we need you on the court.
35:07Let's go.
35:11And I don't play dirty
35:13for accusing me,
35:14I take a look
35:14in the mirror.
35:17Don't be so naive.
35:19Addicts are pathological liars.
35:21Okay, he's fooled everyone.
35:22I bet that wasn't even
35:23the commissioner
35:24on the phone.
35:25Coach would never
35:26betray us like that.
35:28But the man I know
35:29had no problem
35:30dropping his family
35:31for the bottle.
35:32Yo, did Coach
35:34really do that?
35:34I don't know.
35:35He's got mad skills.
35:38Has he been high
35:38this whole time?
35:42Clearly, this conniving junkie
35:44is dangerous.
35:47Stop.
35:56This is the most pathetic
35:57attempt at gaslighting
35:59I've ever witnessed.
36:00We all saw the play
36:01in super slow-mo.
36:02It was fair.
36:03So you think
36:04because you push papers
36:06and throw cash
36:08at washed-up has-beens
36:09that you actually
36:10know ball?
36:12What the hell
36:12gives a woman like you
36:13the right to call
36:14fair play?
36:16Don't take the bait.
36:17Can't argue with someone
36:18who believes
36:18their own bullshit.
36:19Then maybe he should
36:20focus on the facts,
36:21like how his team's
36:22reversals fell 30%
36:23this season.
36:27Congratulations, Coach.
36:30That ticket to the final
36:31should be mine.
36:46The Lightning won
36:47fair and square.
36:48Go home
36:49before I have you
36:50blacklisted from the league.
36:51Who the hell are you?
36:55Who the hell are you?
36:56That's the Lightning GM.
36:59He used to be coach
37:00of that whack-ass
37:01Eagles team
37:02that got cut
37:03from the league.
37:04Isn't that right?
37:05You don't have the authority
37:06to kick me out.
37:10Oh, what's this?
37:12Hank Santini,
37:13coach of the losing team.
37:14Are these your
37:15performance-enhancing drugs?
37:23I only answer
37:25to the league commissioner.
37:27I don't waste my breath
37:28arguing with losers.
37:30Mars and his coach
37:31worked miracles tonight.
37:33You don't deserve
37:34to step anywhere
37:35near that finals court.
37:37I'm the head coach
37:38of the top league franchise.
37:41You're just
37:42an old bag of bones
37:43who can't coach for shit.
37:46You should get yourself
37:47an apron
37:48and join him
37:49at the drive-thru.
37:51Boss, are you okay?
37:53Boss?
37:56Allow me to introduce you
37:58to Roderick Gould,
37:59the new league commissioner.
38:08Roderick Gould?
38:09Hey, this was just
38:11a big misunderstanding.
38:12Mr. Commissioner,
38:13I'm sorry.
38:14I have a concussion.
38:15You almost cost my son
38:16his chance at the finals.
38:18Both of you
38:19are a disgrace
38:20to our entire organization.
38:23You're blacklisted
38:24from the league.
38:25Mr. Gould,
38:26please look.
38:26Look, basketball.
38:27It's my life.
38:29Please,
38:29I will do anything.
38:30Save it.
38:31Get the fuck out of here
38:33before I call security.
38:34Go.
38:43I'm sorry I dabbed you.
38:45I don't blame you.
38:47I'm just not that guy anymore.
38:49How can I not tell
38:50you can ball like that?
38:52His face is so familiar.
38:54Team Lightning,
38:55I have never seen
38:56such a miraculous comeback
38:57in all my time
38:58with the league,
38:59especially not
39:00by an assistant coach.
39:01You mean head coach.
39:06Congratulations.
39:07You're going to the finals.
39:12You're going to the finals.
39:19You deserve it, son.
39:24Wrong.
39:24You saved the team
39:25that was almost sold
39:26for parts, man.
39:28Couldn't have done it
39:28without our
39:29star point guard.
39:35Means a lot.
39:39Mars,
39:40you remind me
39:40of the sniper
39:41when he was first
39:42coming up.
39:43Yeah?
39:44Thank you so much, sir.
39:46I mean,
39:47he's kind of my hero.
39:49He still doesn't know
39:50I'm the sniper.
39:51Would he believe me now?
39:53Would he understand
39:53why I left it all behind?
39:55Speaking of the sniper,
39:56your style on court
39:57looks almost identical
39:59to his.
39:59Did you train with him
40:00or something?
40:03I got to meet the press,
40:05but I'll see you all
40:06at the finals.
40:07Excuse me.
40:09Let's take that trophy,
40:10homeboy!
40:13Sorry,
40:14Zappan and son
40:15are not taking my trophy.
40:18It's a history-making day
40:20here at the league finals
40:21with the Lightning
40:22facing off
40:23against the Scorpions.
40:25Team Lightning
40:25is the underdog,
40:26but with rising star
40:27Mars Davis
40:28and their wildcard coach,
40:30anything could happen.
40:31The Scorpions
40:32have championship
40:33coach Tyler Murray
40:34and his comeback king,
40:36Cole Duncan.
40:37it'll take a miracle
40:39for them to win this.
40:40Where the hell is Mars?
40:42We barely made it
40:43through the playoffs
40:44and the Scorpions,
40:45they body every single
40:47team they play.
40:48We need our star point guard.
40:51Have we heard from him yet?
40:56You got this team
40:58to the final,
40:59but if Mars is MIA,
41:00they can be humiliated
41:02on that court.
41:04The Scorpions
41:05will do anything
41:05they can to tear us down.
41:07We won't let them win.
41:09You sure about that?
41:12You
41:13and your jacked up
41:14team of Amateurs,
41:16no match for us.
41:17Alright,
41:18the only hope
41:18you have is Mars,
41:20but, uh,
41:22where's he at?
41:24Does he know
41:24the game starts
41:25and, uh,
41:26hope he turns up?
41:28Otherwise,
41:29you may as well
41:30forfeit.
41:40Come meet me
41:41on the 17th floor
41:42in 10 minutes.
41:43You're gonna come alone
41:43and you'll tell no one.
41:45Otherwise,
41:45you're never gonna
41:46see your son again.
41:51Take care of our son.
41:55I'm supposed
41:56to keep him safe.
41:59Game starts
41:59in an hour.
42:00You can't leave now.
42:01Mars doesn't show
42:02who's gonna stop.
42:03You figure it out.
42:03I have to find him.
42:05Let him go.
42:06It's his son.
42:10He'll come back.
42:23Welcome back,
42:24Mr. Davis.
42:25What the fuck, man?
42:27Let me go!
42:28Well,
42:29I can't do that.
42:30You're my leverage
42:31in this deal.
42:32Now,
42:32you're...
