Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I'm back to game seven of the UBA finals
00:00:03Unbelievable comeback if the sniper can clinch a finals victory for the lightning. He will be crowned the league's God
00:00:09of ball
00:00:13Got this baby, you're one shot away from becoming a legend
00:00:16I never could have done this without you and after the win tonight
00:00:21I'm done with basketball. I'm tired of the long nights and the weeks away. It'll just be us
00:00:27And our son
00:00:32I
00:00:32Love you
00:00:34Kill him sniper
00:00:39The Lighting's down by one and the Scorpions have the ball they need one more stop to get the ball
00:00:45Tyler Murray shoots it. Oh the sniper stole it
00:00:50He's heading to the front court
00:00:53We have three seconds left can 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. Is that his signature move?
00:01:15The sniper's signature kill shot just won the league finals
00:01:22I'll be the final
00:01:37I've done this without you
00:01:46The 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!
00:02:22My son. Take care of my son.
00:02:28No!
00:02:32We've gathered here today to crown the season's MVP.
00:02:36A man who made the Lightning Champions.
00:02:38So put your hands together for the god of ball, a new league legend, the Sniper.
00:02:48After the death of the family member, the goat of basketball is retiring and disappeared.
00:02:59It was a robbery. A terrible accident.
00:03:02Don't give up your son, Marcel. You'll regret it forever.
00:03:06This 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.
00:03:32I'll never play again.
00:03:41How could I be so blind?
00:03:45I put basketball before my family.
00:03:47I put them in danger.
00:03:49This is what I deserve.
00:03:51Mars Davis, you're on fire.
00:03:54Those greatness run in the family.
00:03:55Who inspired you to pick up the ball?
00:03:57The Sniper. I mean, he's the best to ever do it.
00:04:00I'd give anything to Train Without Lost Legend.
00:04:02I 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.
00:04:15It'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.
00:04:22A washed-up alcoholic, slinging burgers at a drive-thru.
00:04:27It's time to get my shit together.
00:04:31He's like the Steph Curry of burgers!
00:04:35Holy shit! I did it!
00:04:38Over 200 cars served per hour.
00:04:41You know what that means, guys.
00:04:43Bonus time!
00:04:47Biggest cut for me.
00:04:49Scotty didn't do shit.
00:04:51It's your math skills that broke a record.
00:04:53I'm the reason we got that bonus.
00:04:55You gonna deny me my cut?
00:04:57Buddy, you've been drinking on the job.
00:05:00I should fire your ass.
00:05:01Our janitor guy quit this morning.
00:05:04So either you walk out of here broke and jobless,
00:05:07or you go clean up the puke in the bathroom.
00:05:11I've lost everything.
00:05:12I won't give up my last shred of dignity.
00:05:15No thanks.
00:05:17I quit.
00:05:19Quit? Good luck.
00:05:21Who else is gonna hire a washed-up alcoholic?
00:05:32If the Lightning lose this playoff game,
00:05:34then the owner's gonna kill the team.
00:05:36I'm sorry.
00:05:38We need a Hail Mary.
00:05:51I haven't seen precision like that since the sniper.
00:05:54Did I just find the lost basketball legend?
00:05:58Holy shit!
00:06:00That's Omari Gibbs!
00:06:01Yo, Mr. Gibbs, can I have one autograph?
00:06:03As a general manager myself, I'd be honored to-
00:06:06Hey, Marcel!
00:06:09Come with me.
00:06:11We need you back in the game.
00:06:25We need the sniper as the Lightning's assistant coach.
00:06:29No way.
00:06:30And don't call me that.
00:06:32The sniper died a long time in the zone.
00:06:33We have one more game to save this team.
00:06:36We need a miracle.
00:06:38We need you.
00:06:39I gave up basketball 20 years ago.
00:06:43I'm not your guy.
00:06:44Wait!
00:06:46I wanna show you something.
00:06:49Pass his face!
00:06:51Screen up! D! D!
00:06:53Let's go, Mars!
00:06:53Get the basket!
00:06:55Ah!
00:06:56You know, Mars could be one of the greats.
00:06:58We don't win this playoff game.
00:07:00The owner's gonna sell.
00:07:01They'll rebuild.
00:07:03Rebrand.
00:07:04And Mars Correa will go down with this team.
00:07:07We're up against the 99ers.
00:07:09He can't beat them on his own.
00:07:12I never thought I'd give myself back.
00:07:15You could.
00:07:16If you coach him to the finals.
00:07:18He'll never respect you.
00:07:20Unless you show him that you deserve it.
00:07:22This is your chance to make a comeback.
00:07:25Marcel,
00:07:27I've seen you ruin your own life.
00:07:29Don't ruin your sons too.
00:07:36I'll do it.
00:07:37I'll do it.
00:07:44But no one can know who I am.
00:07:46And I'm only coaching on not playing.
00:07:48I'll never play again.
00:08:04All right, listen up.
00:08:05The only reason this sorry for an excused team squeaked into the playoffs is because of Mars.
00:08:12But there's no way we're gonna, I mean, there's not a chance we survive unless we stay.
00:08:21What the hell are you doing here?
00:08:26I'm your new assistant coach.
00:08:28What do they call you?
00:08:29Coach combo meal.
00:08:33No, no fucking way.
00:08:34He's an alcoholic loser.
00:08:36He couldn't even stay sober long enough to raise his own son.
00:08:40I spent my whole life trying to be the opposite of you.
00:08:44Well, now you come to my house to coach me?
00:08:48I don't think so.
00:08:49What the hell is Amari thinking?
00:08:50We need a miracle to win this final, not a drive-through drunk.
00:08:54No, what you need is better cuts, set some picks, and perfect your three-point game.
00:08:59You think it's that easy, old man?
00:09:01If you could hold on to the ball, what you lack in power, you can make up for in precision.
00:09:06What do you know?
00:09:07The only thing I've ever seen you pick up is this damn flask.
00:09:12He's wasted.
00:09:13Don't hurt yourself, Gramps.
00:09:31Lucky shot.
00:09:33Don't let this drunk con fool you.
00:09:35When it comes to actual basketball, he's got nothing on me.
00:09:38What will it take for you to call me coach?
00:09:42A shooting contest?
00:09:44Three extreme shots.
00:09:46The fastest one to make him wins.
00:09:47If you win, you can stay.
00:09:50But if I win, you walk out.
00:09:53And never come back.
00:09:56I never wanted to play again.
00:09:58Especially not against my own son.
00:10:00But if I have to prove myself to protect him.
00:10:04Deal.
00:10:08Boris, do you really think it's a good idea to let your loser dad be the coach of our most
00:10:12important game?
00:10:14I don't know.
00:10:16Let him show us what he's got.
00:10:17He's a useless deadbeat.
00:10:19He'll gas out before he even hits the first shot.
00:10:25Alright.
00:10:26Three expert level shots.
00:10:28The step back three.
00:10:29The blind strike.
00:10:30And the clutch.
00:10:32Same sequence.
00:10:33Same time.
00:10:34You miss.
00:10:35You go again.
00:10:37No resets.
00:10:38No excuses.
00:10:40Three.
00:10:41Two.
00:10:41One.
00:10:44First up, the step back three point shoot.
00:10:47It's a difficult shot that requires pacing and core strength.
00:10:51How could he make it?
00:10:53Did you see that?
00:10:55Next up, the blind strike.
00:10:57It requires good memorization and a sixth sense.
00:11:02Even without looking.
00:11:06Bro, he's cooking you!
00:11:07Finally, the clutch.
00:11:09The most difficult shot you can do in the entire game.
00:11:12It means you're out of time and energy.
00:11:14And you have one last shot.
00:11:16I've only seen one player pull it off 20 years ago.
00:11:19I'm rookie of the year.
00:11:20And you're just some drunk patty push who works at a fast food joint.
00:11:23That shot.
00:11:23There's no way you could...
00:11:24You're gonna use to call me coach.
00:11:32What?
00:11:42Who the hell is this guy?
00:11:44Why does he seem so familiar?
00:11:46The lightnings hail Mary.
00:12:00All right, everyone start sprints.
00:12:08Lars, you're the best player on this team.
00:12:10You can't just run off like that.
00:12:11You don't get to disappear for years and suddenly decide you're my dad again.
00:12:16Everything I have, I built by myself.
00:12:19Now, I'm not taking orders from you now.
00:12:21You can flash those fancy tricks all you want.
00:12:23But you don't actually know ball.
00:12:25You sure about that?
00:12:26Aunt Grace told me you played before I was born.
00:12:28But if you were any good, you wouldn't have become a worthless drunk now, would you?
00:12:32Unless this team wins tomorrow, your career is over.
00:12:35And I'm not gonna let that happen.
00:12:37We will win.
00:12:38And it'll have nothing to do with you.
00:12:44I won't give up and walk away this time.
00:12:47I can't lose him forever.
00:12:51Son, wait!
00:12:56Okay, I'm sorry.
00:12:57Are you lost, Zippy Burger?
00:13:00Who did you steal this from?
00:13:04I didn't steal anything.
00:13:08So you're the Lightning's new assistant coach?
00:13:11Tyler Murray, my old rival.
00:13:14Recruiting from the drive-through.
00:13:16I mean, scraping the bottom of the barrel.
00:13:18How does it feel to play for a team that's about to be erased from league history?
00:13:22It'll feel great when we beat you.
00:13:25You won't even make it to the finals.
00:13:27The Lightning have been terrible ever since the Sniper went MIA, what, 20 years ago?
00:13:33Thanks to me, now the Scorpions rule.
00:13:35We should make it look like an accident.
00:13:37The Sniper will never steal another trophy from me again.
00:13:43And you're no Sniper.
00:13:45So I suggest you start burning your jerseys.
00:13:48You can learn how to flip burgers, work with this guy.
00:13:50Because your basketball career?
00:13:52It's over.
00:13:54Don't talk to my son like that.
00:13:56So you're the alcoholic absent father.
00:13:59Ah.
00:14:01Yeah, I can see why he wants nothing to do with you.
00:14:04Hey, don't you worry.
00:14:06When your greasy dad here runs your team straight to the ground,
00:14:08I'll let you be my ball boy.
00:14:20You should teach your boys manners.
00:14:22The 99ers are going to destroy you.
00:14:25So I suggest you get ready to be laughed off the court.
00:14:28I'll let the score speak for itself.
00:14:37I'm about to coach a playoff game.
00:14:40I need to look the part.
00:14:48The Lightning started this season at the bottom of the barrel.
00:14:51But thanks to some stellar plays from rookie Morris Davis,
00:14:54they're in the playoffs going head-to-head with one of the league's top franchises.
00:14:59Coach Rush says their new assistant coach is a secret weapon.
00:15:02Is it true they recruited him from a fast-food drive-through?
00:15:22Is that the burger guy?
00:15:23No, but it can't be.
00:15:26They call him Coach Combo Mule.
00:15:28There's no way a guy like that can call game when he plays.
00:15:32Everybody expects us to fail tonight.
00:15:34But if we focus, stick to the game plan, we can prove the world wrong.
00:15:38It's your show, Coach.
00:15:39Good luck.
00:15:41Only if we played two, this team would be unstoppable if we got him out on the court.
00:15:45Time to break the curse.
00:15:47All in, Team Lightning.
00:15:55Tell that I'm full, you guys.
00:15:57Combo Mule talks up a big game, but he'll give up on you when you need him most.
00:16:01I'm not going anywhere.
00:16:02Let's win this. Lightning on three.
00:16:04One, two, three.
00:16:05Lightning!
00:16:11Remember this face. I'm the legend that's going to knock you and the Lightning out of this league for good.
00:16:33The ball movement, boys.
00:16:39Get ready, get ready.
00:16:41Take it, baby.
00:16:45Good shot.
00:16:46Who is that schlub playing Russia's assistant coach?
00:16:50It's Mars Davis' absent father.
00:16:53Guy's a total alcoholic, clearly just a pity hire.
00:16:56Mars Davis' father?
00:16:57Why does he look so familiar?
00:17:01These losers are humiliating you.
00:17:04Let's go, boys.
00:17:06Alcoholic or not, he's got them playing like a whole new team.
00:17:23What the hell, ref?
00:17:26Come on.
00:17:37Where's the foul, ref?
00:17:38Come on.
00:17:40Foul! Come on, man!
00:17:41Where's the foul, ref?
00:17:46They can't beat us, so they're playing dirty.
00:17:53Foul, ref! Come on!
00:18:07They're scared. Don't back down.
00:18:09Tell me what to do, old man.
00:18:17Stitches on Mars!
00:18:24Focus up. Behind the line.
00:18:32Get it!
00:18:40Let's go!
00:18:41Yo! What? What's wrong with you?
00:18:44Hey! Hey!
00:18:46Go to the right, yo!
00:18:48You blind, ref?
00:18:51Red, number 15, foul.
00:18:53Bro!
00:18:55Red, loser!
00:18:57I can't go down.
00:18:58Not like this.
00:19:00You'll be okay, son.
00:19:00Yeah.
00:19:01This is a real blow for the Lightning.
00:19:03Unless Mars Davis makes a miraculous recovery, there's no way that they can come back from this.
00:19:08I told you, they would dominate this team of washed up losers.
00:19:18We're all out of subs.
00:19:19Your last chance to win us.
00:19:21We have to forfeit.
00:19:26Wait.
00:19:27You've got your Hail Mary right here.
00:19:30I already drew up a player contract, just in case.
00:19:33Your team needs you on the court, coach.
00:19:36You want me to play?
00:19:38You shoot with the best accuracy I've ever seen.
00:19:41And between you and me, I want the lighting to take those asshole 99ers down.
00:19:47You can save us.
00:19:48I'll win it all.
00:19:52There's no way that this out of shape excuse for a coach can bring them back from an eight-point
00:19:57deficit in 15 seconds.
00:19:59It's impossible.
00:20:00Go out there, coach.
00:20:02And I'll knock you down so hard to know you back up.
00:20:07If we lose, it's all over.
00:20:10A team.
00:20:11My career.
00:20:21If everyone finds out who I am, will I put my son in danger too?
00:20:26I'm sorry, I can't get back on the court.
00:20:29I knew you were just a useless deadbeat.
00:20:32All you ever do is quit.
00:20:35I can't lose my son again.
00:20:38Mark it! Mark it! Mark it! Mark it! Mark it! Mark it! Mark it! Mark it!
00:20:44Guess Team Night Lightning has no choice.
00:20:49Wait.
00:20:51Give me a jersey.
00:20:52I'll play.
00:20:55Can't wait for this greasy dick shit to fall flat on his face.
00:20:59Wait a minute. Is that the coach wearing a player's jersey?
00:21:02Is he gonna play?
00:21:05Is he gonna play?
00:21:06The coach is warming up now.
00:21:11I'm back.
00:21:15The sniper finally shoots again.
00:21:17Damn, that coach cleaned up good.
00:21:20He reminds me of one of those old school league legends.
00:21:22Unless he's got the skills to match, the Lightning can kiss their careers goodbye.
00:21:26They've only got 15 seconds left to make an impossible comeback.
00:21:30There's no way he can pull this off.
00:21:33You know, when you lose it'll actually be nice. I'll come by the restaurant and you can both put the
00:21:37fries in my bag.
00:21:39That old guy's not making it through our defense.
00:21:44What is he doing?
00:21:46He's running the wrong way down the court.
00:21:49What the hell's he doing?
00:21:50That loser's blowing the game.
00:21:53What are you drunk old man or just lost?
00:21:55Is he trying to score?
00:21:57That's impossible.
00:21:59Nobody could score from the back court.
00:22:16No one's made a full court shot since the sniper.
00:22:19Who is this guy?
00:22:46That's a record breaking shot.
00:22:46What the hell?
00:22:47How did he score from 94 fucking feet?
00:22:51No one's made a full court shot since the sniper.
00:22:54Who is this guy?
00:22:56That's a record breaking shot.
00:22:58I haven't seen style like that in 20 years.
00:23:00The lightning's still down by five with only ten seconds left on the clock back it up geezer try that
00:23:06again
00:23:06You're gonna throw out your back. You still need a miracle to win
00:23:10Coach, where'd you get those mad skills? We might have a chance. Give's not over full court press got it
00:23:19Give it up old man. It's too late. You sure about that?
00:23:23When we win, I'm gonna need you to apologize to my son for your foul play
00:23:26When you lose you and your joke of a son are gonna leave this league and you can go back
00:23:32to what you're actually good at
00:23:33Flipping burgers you're on
00:23:42How are you supposed to win you can't hold on to the ball this old man is too good
00:23:49For God's sake someone stop them seven seconds on the clock and only one basket away from tying the game
00:23:56If coach can pull off this shot, he'll go down in league history
00:24:04Run down the clock
00:24:19Are we about to witness a miracle with three seconds left the game is tied one more basket and coach
00:24:26combo makes history
00:24:27It's only three seconds left. Can you really do this?
00:24:34Lightning on three
00:24:36One two three
00:24:38Lightning
00:24:41This one's for you son
00:24:48This assistant coach took the worst team in the UBA to the playoffs and now he's on the court dominating
00:24:55guys half his age
00:24:57He came out of nowhere, but he looks so familiar
00:25:05He'll all be worth it when you win and Murray gets us paid
00:25:27Let's go whatever it takes you said that your eye for talent was unmatched Murray
00:25:34How did he get past you?
00:25:37I don't I don't know
00:25:39Scoring in three seconds. It's it's impossible
00:25:42If we lose we'll be the joke of the lead then triple fucking team him
00:25:49Triple team won't work on me
00:26:06Oh my god, he has the ball
00:26:11That's a foul
00:26:25Oh
00:26:25See I told you we'd choke
00:26:27I don't choke
00:26:28Let me remind you of who I really am
00:26:31Oh my god, that's the sniper signature move. It's the kill shot
00:26:39Let me remind you of who I really am
00:26:41Oh my god, that's the sniper signature move. It's the kill shot
00:26:51Oh my god, that's the kill shot
00:27:09Wow
00:27:16Could it be the sniper?
00:27:19The missing god of balls?
00:27:29That was the sniper's signature move
00:27:33No one has been able to do that since he dominated the court
00:27:38Oh, he's done it!
00:27:40Coach Carmobile and the lightnings go to the finals
00:27:47This man just made history
00:27:52That geriatric joke stole our spot in the finals
00:27:56Congratulations on a hell of a final season coach rush
00:27:59Coach you're retiring?
00:28:02I just needed to find my successor
00:28:07When I first saw you come into practice with your drive-through get-ups
00:28:11I had no idea you were the legend
00:28:14All of our success
00:28:15Thanks to you
00:28:17I only played 15 seconds this season
00:28:18You all won this game
00:28:21This guy right here, Mars
00:28:2359 points
00:28:27My 10 points would mean nothing without that
00:28:32Good game guys
00:28:34We'll take that apology now
00:28:35I'm not apologizing for shit
00:28:39You got the win
00:28:41All for you son
00:28:43But you learn to play like that
00:28:44It's almost like you're possessed by the sniper or something
00:28:47I thought the same thing
00:28:49Your styles are almost identical
00:28:54Are you him?
00:28:58Are you him?
00:29:04Sniper died a long time ago
00:29:17How could he turn it around like that?
00:29:19Could he really be the sniper?
00:29:22No way
00:29:23The sniper left the league decades ago
00:29:25And he's never coming back
00:29:28Or should make it look like an accident
00:29:30Sniper will never steal another trophy from me again
00:29:34I made sure of that myself
00:29:39Then if you lose in the finals to some burger-slinging deadbeat
00:29:45Your career in the league is over
00:29:48You want to threaten me?
00:29:51I'm a champion
00:29:53The league's best coach
00:29:58Then prove it
00:29:59Get the finals win
00:30:01Or clean out your office
00:30:05What was that you said about the lightning not making the finals?
00:30:09You got lucky
00:30:11Getting a raging alcoholic in his
00:30:13Greasy bandits aren't gonna beat the scorpion
00:30:17We'll see you on the court
00:30:18Murray
00:30:20I'll do whatever it takes to make sure that finals trophy is mine
00:30:30My god he did it
00:30:32Now let's pull off a win like that since the sniper
00:30:35Could it be?
00:30:36No
00:30:37That guy dropped off the face here 20 years ago
00:30:40Congratulations team lightning!
00:30:42Woohoo!
00:30:43Woohoo!
00:30:44Yeah!
00:30:45Yeah!
00:30:45Yeah!
00:30:49Front and center coach we wouldn't be here without you
00:30:52Max you're the best coach I've ever had
00:30:59That's why I want you to be our new head coach
00:31:02But coach you're the head coach
00:31:05I've been trying to retire for years now
00:31:08I just wanted to make sure the team would survive without me
00:31:11What do you say?
00:31:14I'm honored coach but I'm not the only leader on the team
00:31:18What do you think Morris?
00:31:19Mind if your dad sticks around for a little while?
00:31:23What do you think Morris?
00:31:24Mind if your dad sticks around for a little while?
00:31:27You helped win us one big playoff game combo meal but
00:31:31If you can get us that trophy then maybe I'll call you coach
00:31:35After my wife was murdered I thought it was done with basketball forever
00:31:39I never expected it could bring me back to my son
00:31:41Coach Rush
00:31:43I'd be honored to accept your offer
00:31:48I am not letting this fast food fraud get his greasy paws on my trophy
00:32:06All right everyone lightning on three
00:32:10One two three
00:32:12Not so fast
00:32:20He assaulted my player
00:32:22I'm challenging the call
00:32:26Assaulted?
00:32:27You need to get your eyes checked
00:32:29You elbowed him in the chest and he collapsed
00:32:31I should have been a flagrant foul
00:32:33It's a fair play I had nothing to do with this
00:32:35Bullshit
00:32:36You knew that you couldn't compete with my number one draft pick
00:32:39So while everyone was distracted with your unsportsmanlike flopping
00:32:43You pushed him
00:32:45You and your desperate son just wanted to ruin my career
00:32:51Bitter old fuck
00:32:53You just don't know real talent when you see
00:32:56Clearly you don't know when to hang it up and let the next generation have their turn
00:33:00You are a washed up alcoholic cheating your way to the finals
00:33:04This team earned their position here
00:33:06It's not our fault that you're afraid to face us in the finals
00:33:09We should be playing in the finals game
00:33:12You're just lucky that we're not going to press charges
00:33:14My advice
00:33:16Go back to flipping burgers before you hurt someone else
00:33:18Not a chance
00:33:20What would you expect from a washed up alcoholic who steals the spotlight from his own son?
00:33:25The 99ers deserve a ticket to the finals
00:33:28Unlike your entitled assistant coach
00:33:31Hey, that's head coach
00:33:33Maybe that was a mistake
00:33:35I mean clearly he's not here for the team
00:33:41He's just here for himself
00:33:43I mean you took my spot in the game
00:33:45What to prove that you're just some legendary baller?
00:33:47You haven't been sober my whole life
00:33:49How can any of us trust you?
00:33:51My son still sees me as an absent alcoholic dad
00:33:56Your son's right
00:33:57I collapsed on court
00:33:59He's an addict
00:34:00Feels like he drugged me
00:34:02You all saw the play
00:34:03He didn't touch you
00:34:04He's seen the coach drink since he joined the lightning
00:34:06You know you can all look down on me and my team
00:34:09That's fine
00:34:10But you can't deny the word of the commissioner
00:34:18Congrats on the new job, Mr. Commissioner
00:34:21What a marvelous win, old friend
00:34:23You know, I cannot believe you found that guy at a zippy burger drive-through
00:34:27You know, I bet he'd give the sniper a run for his money
00:34:31Unless you're about to tell me that he is the sniper
00:34:33Marcel may be promised to keep his destroyed entity a secret
00:34:36Everyone will find out when the time is right
00:34:38Well, perhaps wishful thinking
00:34:40Now that I'm commissioner
00:34:41I get to choose the next basketball hall of fame inductee
00:34:45If the lost god of ball has been found, it has to be him
00:34:50Hold up, Mr. Commissioner
00:34:54We need the commissioner down here, stat
00:34:56I want him to look these clouds in the eyes and tell them that the lightning made it to the
00:34:59final
00:34:59spare and square
00:35:01Mr. Commissioner
00:35:02We need you on the court, let's go
00:35:07And I don't play dirty
00:35:09For accusing me, I take a look in the mirror
00:35:13Don't be so naive
00:35:15Addicts are pathological liars
00:35:17Okay, he's fooled everyone
00:35:19I bet that wasn't even the commissioner on the phone
00:35:21Coach would never betray us like that
00:35:25But the man I know had no problem dropping his family for the bottle
00:35:28Yo, did Coach really do that?
00:35:31I don't know, he's got mad skills
00:35:34Has he been high this whole time?
00:35:38Clearly this conniving junkie is dangerous
00:35:43Stop
00:35:53This is the most pathetic attempt at gaslighting I've ever witnessed
00:35:56We all saw the play in super slow-mo
00:35:59It was fair
00:36:00So you think because you push papers and throw cash at washed up has-beens that you actually know ball?
00:36:09What the hell gives a woman like you the right to call a fair play?
00:36:13Don't take the bait
00:36:14Can't argue with someone who believes their own bullshit
00:36:16Then maybe he should focus on the facts
00:36:18Like how his team's reversals fell 30% this season
00:36:24Congratulations, Coach
00:36:27That ticket to the final should be mine
00:36:43The Lightning won fair and square
00:36:45Go home before I have you blacklisted from the league
00:36:48Who the hell are you?
00:36:53Who the hell are you?
00:36:55That's the Lightning GM
00:36:57He used to be coach of that whack-ass Eagles team that got cut from the league
00:37:01Isn't that right?
00:37:02You don't have the authority to kick me out
00:37:08Hey, what's this?
00:37:09Hank Santini, coach of the losing team
00:37:12Are these your performance enhancing drugs?
00:37:21I only answer to the league commissioner
00:37:25I don't waste my breath arguing with losers
00:37:27Mars and his coach worked miracles tonight
00:37:31You don't deserve to step anywhere near that finals court
00:37:35I'm the head coach
00:37:36I'm the top league franchise
00:37:38You're just an old bag of bones who can't coach for shit
00:37:43You should get yourself an apron
00:37:46And join him at the drive-through
00:37:49Boss, are you okay?
00:37:51Boss?
00:37:54Boss, allow me to introduce you to Roderick Gould
00:37:57The new league commissioner
00:38:06Roderick Gould?
00:38:08Hey, this was just a big misunderstanding
00:38:10Mr. Commissioner
00:38:11I'm sorry, I have a concussion
00:38:13You almost cost my son his chance at the finals
00:38:17Both of you are a disgrace to our entire organization
00:38:21You're blacklisted from the league
00:38:23Mr. Gould, please look
00:38:25Look, basketball
00:38:25It's my life
00:38:27Please, I will do anything
00:38:29Save it
00:38:30Get the fuck out of here before I call security
00:38:33Go
00:38:41I'm sorry I dabbed you
00:38:43I don't blame you
00:38:45I'm just not that guy anymore
00:38:47How can I not tell you can ball like that?
00:38:50His face is so familiar
00:38:52Team Lightning, I have never seen such a miraculous comeback in all my time with the league
00:38:57Especially not by an assistant coach
00:39:00You mean head coach
00:39:04Congratulations, you're going to the finals
00:39:11You're going to the finals
00:39:18You deserve it, son
00:39:23Wrong
00:39:23You saved the team that was almost sold for parts, man
00:39:27Couldn't have done it without our star point guard
00:39:34Means a lot
00:39:38Mars, you remind me of the sniper when he was first coming up
00:39:42Yeah?
00:39:44Thank you so much, sir
00:39:45I mean, he's kind of my hero
00:39:48He still doesn't know I'm the sniper
00:39:50Would he believe me now?
00:39:52Would he understand why I left it all behind?
00:39:54Speaking of the sniper, your style on court looks almost identical to his
00:39:58Did you train with him or something?
00:40:03I got to meet the press, but I'll see you all at the finals
00:40:06Excuse me
00:40:08Let's take that trophy home, boys!
00:40:13Sorry, Sap and his son are not taking my trophy
00:40:18It's a history-making day here at the league finals with the Lightning facing off against the Scorpions
00:40:24Team Lightning is the underdog, but with rising star Mars Davis and their wildcard coach, anything could happen
00:40:31The Scorpions have championship coach Tyler Murray and his comeback king, Cole Duncan
00:40:37It'll take a miracle for them to win this
00:40:39Where 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 MIA, they can be humiliated on that court
00:41:04Scorpions 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
00:41:17All right, 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, we may as well pour it
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
00:41:44Otherwise, 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
00:42:03You 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
00:42:25What 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?
00:42:43What do you think?
00:42:47Wow
00:42:48You actually showed up
00:42:50You picked your son over your own career
00:42:52My father of the year
00:42:55Tyler, your problems are with me, not my son
00:42:57You're damn right they are
00:42:59I was born to be a winner
00:43:02A winner
00:43:03They have money
00:43:04They have money and power and respect
00:43:07I didn't claw my way to the finals just to have some loser who was fetching fries last week steal
00:43:13it from me
00:43:14Cut him loose and we can talk about this
00:43:20You want to talk? There is nothing to talk about
00:43:22The stunt in the playoffs cost me a lot of money
00:43:27And it almost exposes a very delicate operation
00:43:31So you're gonna throw the game today
00:43:33I'm gonna be champion
00:43:34You're gonna be champion
00:43:35Or what?
00:43:37So glad you asked
00:43:39Or
00:43:41Your son is gonna suffer
00:43:47Fine
00:43:47We'll throw the game
00:43:49What?
00:43:52Let me just untie him
00:43:54Are you think I'm stupid?
00:43:55I'm just gonna take your word?
00:43:58No
00:43:58Well, I had my lawyers draft up
00:44:01A nice little
00:44:02Admission of guilt here
00:44:04Says I, the head coach of the Lightning
00:44:08Admit to illegally rigging games for profit
00:44:10Including the 2026 finals
00:44:14Yadda yadda yadda
00:44:15Blah blah blah
00:44:16Sign this
00:44:18Throw the game
00:44:18And no one will ever find out about our little deal
00:44:22This motherfucker scared shitless
00:44:25Don't sign anything
00:44:34Your son has no manners
00:44:37I guess that's what he gets
00:44:38When his daddy's an absent alcoholic
00:44:43Now you're gonna sign the contract
00:44:44Or I'm gonna break his legs
00:44:46Don't fucking touch
00:44:49Alright, you have five seconds
00:44:52Or I'm gonna break him
00:44:53He's bluffing
00:44:54Don't listen to him
00:44:56Five
00:44:56Five
00:44:58Four
00:44:58Don't
00:44:59Three
00:45:00You're getting lifts like this
00:45:01Two
00:45:03One
00:45:09Five
00:45:11Four
00:45:12Don't
00:45:13Three
00:45:14You're getting lifts like this
00:45:15Two
00:45:17One
00:45:22I'll sign the fucking contract
00:45:30That's a good choice
00:45:31I mean you signed the death wish for team Lightning
00:45:34You saved your son's legs
00:45:37And murdered his career
00:45:39But like I said
00:45:41Father of the year
00:45:44Now
00:45:45While I have you here one more thing
00:45:46I'm just gonna need you to admit to what you just did
00:45:49I need a little bit of extra insurance
00:45:51I'm not gonna confess to rigging games for profit
00:45:54I signed the contract that was the agreement
00:45:56Yeah, I'll splice something together
00:45:58It's fine
00:46:00This is blackmail
00:46:01You won't get away with it
00:46:06Watch me
00:46:08Let's go boys
00:46:22Where the fuck would you agree to that
00:46:25What'd you want me to do
00:46:25Let him break your legs
00:46:26You'd never play ball again
00:46:28No
00:46:29I wanted you to fight for me
00:46:32Our team
00:46:33You bent the knee and gave up when it got hard
00:46:36Just like you always do
00:46:37I gave up my career
00:46:39For you
00:46:40Don't you get it?
00:46:42If you go down, I go down with you
00:46:45I knew I should have sent your ass packing when I had the chance
00:46:50I knew I couldn't count on you
00:46:53Mars
00:46:56Mars is right
00:46:58If those bastards take the championship
00:47:00Then everything he worked for goes up in flames
00:47:03The last time I won the finals
00:47:06I lost everything
00:47:23But I won't let that happen to my son
00:47:25I won't let them win
00:47:28But I can make them think that they're going to
00:47:32Marcel, thank God
00:47:33Are you and Marcel
00:47:34We're fine
00:47:35I need a favor
00:47:36We're on the street
00:47:37It's Coach Murray
00:47:38It's rigging games for Prof
00:47:43Welcome back to the 2026 UBA Finals
00:47:49Tonight we have the Lightning playing against the Scorpions
00:48:17The Lightning and the Scorpion haven't met in the finals since 2006
00:48:22Tyler Murray himself played in that game
00:48:24But he fell to the sniper
00:48:34Wait a minute
00:48:35Coach Combo Meal is here
00:48:42Coach Combo Meal is back on the court
00:48:45You'd never know he was slinging burgers three months ago
00:48:48I bet he couldn't pass up the chance to join his son Mars on the court
00:48:52They'll go down in history as the first father-son duo to play together in a finals game
00:48:57You showed up
00:48:59You're just putting yourself in the game to make sure we lose
00:49:02Actually, I'm pretty surprised you suited up
00:49:04Because you and I both know how this ends
00:49:08That's what he thinks
00:49:10What can I say?
00:49:11I couldn't resist one more shot on the court
00:49:12Yeah, of course he couldn't
00:49:16This team's already imploding
00:49:18Getting this championship trophy will be a walk in the park
00:49:21Well gentlemen, I'd say good luck, but
00:49:25Just don't care
00:49:27Scorpions, let's go
00:49:34I'm on your side
00:49:37Don't hold back out there
00:49:42Don't hold back out there
00:49:48I'm done listening to you
00:50:02Son, right here
00:50:03Mars
00:50:14Guess what I was gonna do is your dad
00:50:22Oh
00:50:40Cool Duncan is on fire
00:50:43The scorpions are dominating the lightning better step it up
00:50:51Hey, hey
00:50:53Go
00:50:53Go
00:50:56Dude, what are you doing?
00:50:58Bro, why are you playing like you're alone?
00:51:00Just get back on defense
00:51:17Half time
00:51:23Half time right now
00:51:25The lightning's down by 12 points
00:51:27Will they make a comeback in the next half?
00:51:31This is embarrassing
00:51:33I can't believe I have to throw the biggest game of my career
00:51:37I'm supposed to be the leader
00:51:38But I'm just letting everyone else down
00:51:40If no one else can step up, then we're doomed
00:51:48Guys, this game is not over
00:51:50We just need to reset, play as a team
00:51:52And we can still win this
00:51:54You're such a hypocrite
00:51:55You're one to talk, ball hog
00:51:57You're not passing the ball, bruh
00:51:59If we lose, it's your fault
00:52:03That's what you think, huh?
00:52:05All this?
00:52:06It's all his fault
00:52:10It's all his fault
00:52:11Coach hasn't been able to touch the ball
00:52:13Because you refuse to let it go
00:52:15How is this his fault?
00:52:17You're fucking selfish
00:52:18Selfish?
00:52:19Get the fuck off
00:52:20It's not him
00:52:20Enough
00:52:22Enough
00:52:24It's the finals
00:52:25It's the finals
00:52:25If you want to embarrass yourself
00:52:26Go home
00:52:28You go home
00:52:30Everyone out
00:52:38Why'd you have to sign that goddamn contract?
00:52:41You fucked us
00:52:42The contract is bullshit, Morris
00:52:43I'm stringing them along
00:52:45Robin is handling it
00:52:47They're not going to win this
00:52:48You're lying
00:52:49You think I put this jersey on to fuck up your game?
00:52:52I'm here to make sure that nothing and no one gets in your way
00:52:55Bullshit
00:52:56He'll just let me down again
00:52:57Morris, listen to me
00:53:00When your mother was killed
00:53:01I swore off basketball
00:53:02And I was lost
00:53:05But now I'm back
00:53:06But I'm not back for me
00:53:07I'm back for you
00:53:09Now let's go out on that court together
00:53:12And destroy these motherfuckers
00:53:18Welcome back from halftime
00:53:20The scorpions are dominating the game in the first half
00:53:24Mars
00:53:27God damn it
00:53:33That's your star player
00:53:35When you lose tonight
00:53:37The lightning will be gone for good
00:53:39I'll draft him
00:53:40I'll draft him
00:53:41Just to keep the scorpions bench warm
00:53:44Mars is a goat in the making
00:53:45He's about to be rookie of the year
00:53:47Come on boys
00:53:49Let's go lightning
00:53:51Come on
00:53:52You should hear it
00:53:55Guess you're not as stupid as we thought
00:54:01Dude
00:54:02What the fuck
00:54:03Don't speak out of the game
00:54:04He's trying to lose
00:54:12We can still win this
00:54:14But you have to trust me
00:54:16If we play together they can't beat us
00:54:18Mars you've got everything you need right here
00:54:22Let's go out there and win this for the team
00:54:29Good
00:54:32Good
00:54:41Where are you from?"
00:54:53Whoa
00:54:53Whoa
00:54:53Whoa
00:54:53Where else
00:55:12Mars Davis just executed the Sniper's kill shot dunk.
00:55:20It's the end of the third quarter. Lightning is only down by two points now.
00:55:25Will my dad be him? The Sniper.
00:55:29So these assholes want to die.
00:55:36You will lose this game or you and your son will commit career suicide.
00:55:40I'm not scared of you.
00:55:43Move!
00:55:45It's the beginning of the fourth quarter. The Lightning are down by two.
00:55:49Will they make their comeback?
00:55:57Coach, you're a legend.
00:56:00If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself.
00:56:29What a comeback!
00:56:31With father and son working as a team, they might have a chance.
00:56:35The Lightning are up by one. Can they keep the comeback?
00:56:40Whoa, hold on. Is that Tyler Murray?
00:56:45Is this 2006? All we're missing is the God of Ball himself.
00:56:56If you're not going to lose, I'll just have to beat you fair and square.
00:56:59The performance enhancing drug I developed doesn't show up on any normal tests.
00:57:03Team Lightning won't know what hit them.
00:57:05Show me what you got.
00:57:06Coach, be prepared to lose.
00:57:09It's been at least a decade since Tyler Murray played in a professional game.
00:57:13Then why does he seem so confident?
00:57:16Shovel up, boys!
00:57:16We're not leaving here without a trophy.
00:57:19Full-core press!
00:57:21You know, Mars could be the GOAT if you train with a better coach.
00:57:24Yeah, but it'll never be you.
00:57:26You can't control him.
00:57:27But I can.
00:57:36That's a foul, ref!
00:57:40You okay?
00:57:41When did he get so good?
00:57:43Here, come on.
00:57:46They're neck and neck.
00:57:48Only two minutes left.
00:57:49Team Lightning is running out of time.
00:58:02One second!
00:58:04Go, go, go!
00:58:05Come on, come on, we have to win!
00:58:06These losers can't beat us!
00:58:08We win at any cost!
00:58:10You get him!
00:58:14Where are you gonna go now, dipshit?
00:58:17What?
00:58:17Where are you gonna go now, dipshit?
00:58:30We win at any cost!
00:58:44You
00:58:54Nobody's pulled that off since the guy who invented it.
00:58:59Game over.
00:59:01Unbelievable!
00:59:02What a comeback play from the Lightning.
00:59:04They just won the 2006 QBA Championship.
00:59:08Yeah!
00:59:23Yes!
00:59:24Yes!
00:59:24Yes!
00:59:24Yes!
00:59:25Yes!
00:59:26You did it!
00:59:27We did it.
00:59:29You're gonna regret this.
00:59:30You have no idea what you've done!
00:59:32I don't think so, coach.
00:59:33I know exactly what I've done, and I know what you've done, too.
00:59:37This is far from over.
00:59:40Let's go.
00:59:45Yeah, boys!
00:59:53I knew you'd pull it off, man.
00:59:56No one's gonna sell a winning team.
00:59:58Congratulations.
01:00:01If anybody was gonna save the Lightning from extinction,
01:00:04I knew it was gonna be you, Mars.
01:00:05It'd be Mars, the new face of the league.
01:00:11Congratulations, coach.
01:00:12Uh, don't tell anybody, but I was rooting for you.
01:00:18And, uh...
01:00:20I came across this old basketball card.
01:00:26Where'd you get this?
01:00:27Is my dad really the sniper?
01:00:39Uh...
01:00:40Now for the presentation of the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy
01:00:44and the Michael Jordan MVP.
01:00:46Here is UVA Commissioner, Roderick Gould.
01:00:51Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
01:00:53These finals have showcased the battle for greatness
01:00:56with more talent on one court than we have ever seen before.
01:01:00But one incredible team prevailed.
01:01:03Congratulations, Team Lightning.
01:01:05You are the 2026 League Champions.
01:01:08Yeah!
01:01:14We're not done yet.
01:01:16For MVP, this rookie grew into a star right before our eyes.
01:01:21Congratulations, Mars Davis.
01:01:24Yeah!
01:01:27Yeah!
01:01:34Quick reflexes, coach.
01:01:35I'd love to know what else you could do with those hands.
01:01:37Maybe I'll show you something.
01:01:47Oh, God.
01:01:54Thanks for getting me home safe.
01:02:02If it isn't obvious, I like you, Marcel.
01:02:07You should share this to the champagne talking.
01:02:11Why don't you come find out?
01:02:22Close your eyes.
01:02:53You can open your eyes now.
01:02:58Damn.
01:03:11I want you to take me here against this window.
01:03:17Show me your full court, breastcoach.
01:03:33You've got potential, rookie.
01:03:35Now we just need to work on your long game.
01:03:50Wrong time, bro.
01:03:51You better get a new suit.
01:03:53You're getting inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame tomorrow.
01:03:57Murray, I didn't join the league for glory.
01:04:00I'm just a man trying to make amends with his son.
01:04:02Well, you're also a legend who single-handedly led a dying team to a championship.
01:04:07I've invited Mars and your sister-in-law too.
01:04:10They deserve to see who you really are and how far you've come.
01:04:14Fine.
01:04:16Make sure their commissioner invites Coach Murray.
01:04:19And Cole too.
01:04:21You sure about that?
01:04:23Yeah.
01:04:25I got a plan.
01:04:33You look happy.
01:04:38And it's about to get even better.
01:04:40I got two tickets to the Basketball Hall of Fame Gala tomorrow night.
01:04:46Any chance you'd want to be my date?
01:04:49She has no idea it's me who's being inducted.
01:04:53I'd love to.
01:05:04Gentlemen.
01:05:11Well, well, well.
01:05:13What do we have here?
01:05:19Silver VIP tickets to the Basketball Hall of Fame ceremony.
01:05:25These clowns have no idea what the sniper has planned for them.
01:05:30Now, correct me if I'm wrong, Commissioner, but...
01:05:32The silver tickets, they're exclusive for Hall of Fame inductees, correct?
01:05:37There is something that ranks higher.
01:05:40And that is the gold commemorative ring which is presented to the inductee.
01:05:46But between you and me, we won't be revealing the guest of honor until the night of...
01:05:50Well, you know what? I'm just really happy you finally came to your senses.
01:05:54Recognize me as the UBA's true goat.
01:05:58Coal.
01:05:59It's time to start working on my speech.
01:06:04And once I get on stage, I'll expose Coach Combo Meal for the game-rigging alcoholic he really is.
01:06:10And glory will be mine.
01:06:22Yeah, I'll see you.
01:06:25You and Robin?
01:06:27What about?
01:06:29She asked me to be her date to the Hall of Fame soon.
01:06:34Damn.
01:06:36I only give out 20 of these.
01:06:38But...
01:06:39You won't be needing that.
01:06:41Because I got this.
01:06:47There's only one of them.
01:07:04I heard the league spent more money on this year's Hall of Fame ceremony than ever before.
01:07:09And no one knows who's actually been inducted.
01:07:12Whoever it is, he's a huge deal.
01:07:15My husband is on the board of directors and even he had to fight to get us these general admission
01:07:20tickets.
01:07:26There's Tyler Marie, the famed head coach of the Scorpions, and his superstar, Cole Duncan.
01:07:32They've got silver VIP tickets.
01:07:35Could one of them be the inductee?
01:07:37Maybe.
01:07:37I don't know, but the true inductee will have a gold and silver ring engraved with his name.
01:07:49Cheers.
01:07:59How the fuck did you get in here?
01:08:03I could ask you the same thing.
01:08:06This man is about to be criminally investigated.
01:08:09For rigging games for profit this season.
01:08:15Yeah.
01:08:16This criminal shouldn't be allowed in here.
01:08:19Are you sure you're not the criminals?
01:08:22The criminals.
01:08:24We are silver VIP ticket guests of the commissioner himself.
01:08:29Thanks to me.
01:08:31Congratulations.
01:08:33Hey, there's only two of these silver VIP tickets, which means one of us is getting inducted.
01:08:41We're the best in the fucking game.
01:08:44You're just a pathetic nobody.
01:08:46What do you know?
01:08:49Listen, you've had your fun playing pretend with the big boys in the league, but now it's time to go
01:08:55back to flipping burgers for minimum wage, because you have no right to be here.
01:09:04Actually, I do.
01:09:12Wow.
01:09:13A bronze VIP ticket?
01:09:15Not as exclusive as silver, but he must be someone important.
01:09:19Wait.
01:09:21I'm sorry.
01:09:21Did you forge a ticket just to crash the event?
01:09:27Security.
01:09:29This criminal is using a counterfeit ticket to sneak in here.
01:09:33Take a look.
01:09:34Judge for yourself.
01:09:42This ticket's legit.
01:09:47I told you.
01:09:49Robin invited me as her.
01:09:51Ah.
01:09:52Yeah.
01:09:53I've seen you oogling over the league, CFO Robin Sharp.
01:09:56What did you, seducer?
01:09:57With some witchcraft to get that extra ticket?
01:09:59Not cool, bro.
01:10:00Marcel, are you drunkenly harassing women in the workplace?
01:10:04You are pitiful.
01:10:05Just riding everyone's coattails around you, hmm?
01:10:08It's quite despicable.
01:10:13No.
01:10:14You're despicable.
01:10:25Tyler Murray.
01:10:26How dare you question my date's right to be here?
01:10:30Oh.
01:10:31A date?
01:10:33Oh, no.
01:10:34Don't tell me you find this alcoholic loser attractive.
01:10:37I find him incredibly sexy.
01:10:40Can't keep my hands off him.
01:10:42Oh.
01:10:45You know, you could have had a real man.
01:10:47With real money, real power.
01:10:49But instead, you chose a washed-up nobody
01:10:51that Team Lightning found working at a drive-thru.
01:10:55It can make sense, coach.
01:10:56Wow.
01:10:57You must have a really big...
01:11:01Actually, what makes more sense is this frigid spinster
01:11:04couldn't find a date for the event,
01:11:06so she paid this broke-ass loser
01:11:08so she wouldn't feel so lonely.
01:11:10So sad.
01:11:12You know, the Basketball Hall of Fame induction
01:11:15is a high-profile event.
01:11:17There's no place for a lowly escort.
01:11:24Don't touch her again.
01:11:28Coach won the final, which you lost.
01:11:33He's a total catch.
01:11:34Oh, my God.
01:11:36How can the CFO be so stupid?
01:11:38He was working at a drive-thru three months ago.
01:11:40Oh, you're telling me that when you pull up to get your nuggets
01:11:43and you see this greasy old man, you're gonna give him your number?
01:11:47Oh, he has you fooled too, doesn't he?
01:11:49I bet you didn't even think to ask.
01:11:52How does a bum like this working at drive-thru on the verge of homelessness
01:11:56get a job as a coach in the league?
01:11:58He's here now.
01:11:59That's irrelevant.
01:12:00Is it?
01:12:01Because the only logical explanation I can think of
01:12:03is that he has some dirt on the lightning jam of Mari Gibbs,
01:12:07and he's using it as blackmail for the job.
01:12:12How did you get the job?
01:12:15How did you get the job?
01:12:22Amori and I played on the lightning together 20 years ago.
01:12:26What?
01:12:27You were in the league 20 years ago?
01:12:29No way.
01:12:30That's when I played, and I would remember an ugly face like yours,
01:12:34so you're still lying.
01:12:3620 years ago, I was at the top of my game
01:12:38when my wife was murdered and I was left with my infant son.
01:12:42The sniper will never steal another trophy from me again.
01:12:48No way.
01:12:49That was his wife?
01:12:50I started drinking.
01:12:52I lost myself in the grief and the guilt.
01:12:54So I walked away from my son because
01:12:57I didn't want the terrible thing that happened to my wife to happen to him.
01:13:00So I changed my name and got a job at Sippy Burger.
01:13:03That's where I ran into Amori.
01:13:08What, now you're stealing the sniper's sob story?
01:13:10God.
01:13:11I bet he killed his wife,
01:13:13and that's why his son got taken away,
01:13:15and that's how you end up in a drive-through.
01:13:22What the fuck?
01:13:31She had nothing to do with my mom's death.
01:13:36That's his son.
01:13:37The 2026 MVP.
01:13:40Mars Davis.
01:13:41He is a goat in the making.
01:13:43We've had our differences,
01:13:44but you are in no way responsible for my sister's death.
01:13:48Grace.
01:13:50I'm sorry.
01:13:50I should have called.
01:13:53Mars tells me you've been too busy winning championships.
01:14:00Maybe interrupt this precious family moment,
01:14:03but this doesn't disprove you killed your wife.
01:14:09Talk about my wife one more time.
01:14:10You see?
01:14:11This man is dangerous.
01:14:13All right, your disgraceful father should be in a cell.
01:14:16Not at the biggest basketball event of the year.
01:14:18And after I'm inducted into the Hall of Fame,
01:14:21I'll make sure you never touch a basketball again.
01:14:26You can't do that.
01:14:28Yes, he can.
01:14:32You can't do that.
01:14:34Yes, he can.
01:14:37That's Ben Billings,
01:14:39the owner of the most successful franchise in history,
01:14:42the Scorpions.
01:14:43I wouldn't fuck with him.
01:14:45They're done for.
01:14:45Tyler Murray is one of the most powerful men in this room,
01:14:49and with his silver VIP ticket,
01:14:52he's probably the guest of honor himself.
01:14:55When he tells you to jump,
01:14:59I'd say, how high?
01:15:02I don't jump off the court,
01:15:04especially for small men like you.
01:15:06You are ruining this prestigious event.
01:15:11Security!
01:15:15Remove this man.
01:15:18Get him out of here,
01:15:19fast food fraud.
01:15:21He's ruining everything.
01:15:23You're gonna regret sending me away.
01:15:26Who do you think you are coming in here and barking orders?
01:15:29I'm the most powerful man in this room!
01:15:34Girlie!
01:15:35So you better learn to respect me!
01:15:38Oh!
01:15:42You are hilarious, Benjamin!
01:15:44That's Commissioner Roger Gould.
01:15:46If anybody can set the record straight,
01:15:48it's him.
01:15:49You're about as powerful as a beetle under my shoe.
01:15:53If you're looking for the most powerful person in this room,
01:15:55look no further than the man in front of you.
01:16:00Hell!
01:16:02He's about to be the most powerful and influential man in the whole league.
01:16:12Roddy!
01:16:13Are you going senile already?
01:16:14No, are you?
01:16:15You hand-delivered us two VIP silver tickets.
01:16:19You know what?
01:16:20Maybe it's time to start thinking about an early retirement
01:16:22because the league's going to shit under your management.
01:16:25And after I get into the Hall of Fame,
01:16:27my first order is gonna be getting you removed.
01:16:33You think you're the one being honored here tonight?
01:16:37As long as I have a say,
01:16:40you will never make it into the Hall of Fame.
01:16:45Fine.
01:16:46Then it's Cole.
01:16:47And I taught him everything he knows.
01:16:49And he listens to me.
01:16:51So get ready to bend the fucking knee!
01:16:53Yeah.
01:16:54But you gotta prove you're not useless.
01:16:56Get this old man out of here and I might take it easy on ya.
01:17:00You know, Cole's right.
01:17:00If he was the inductee,
01:17:03you would have the power to send me away.
01:17:05You're alright.
01:17:06I don't belong here with you.
01:17:09I belong on that stage.
01:17:12Behind the podium.
01:17:13The only person allowed up there
01:17:15is the legend who's being inducted tonight.
01:17:19You are a self-righteous, self-centered prick.
01:17:23You think that you're getting inducted?
01:17:25They haven't even announced who has the gold ring.
01:17:29You sure about that?
01:17:40That looks like the one and only golden ring.
01:17:43That means he must be the Hall of Fame legend.
01:17:48Holy shit, it's you?
01:17:51Okay.
01:17:52Now you're impersonating the inductee.
01:17:55Just when I thought you couldn't stoop any lower.
01:17:59I can believe it.
01:18:00He's willing to take his kid's achievement
01:18:02and treat them like his own.
01:18:05Alright, alright.
01:18:06Where'd you steal this from?
01:18:07Check the name.
01:18:11No, it can't be.
01:18:23Tonight, it is both my honour and my privilege
01:18:28to induct a legend amongst men into basketball history.
01:18:33Please put your hands together
01:18:34and welcome into the Hall of Fame...
01:18:39Marcel Sniper Wallace!
01:18:59Congratulations.
01:19:00Coach Combo Meals, the fucking sniper?
01:19:03No way!
01:19:04He conned you, Roddy,
01:19:05just like he conned this whole league.
01:19:07Look, I have proof that this man has been
01:19:09rigging games illegally for profit this season.
01:19:13Is this what you're talking about?
01:19:16I'm not gonna confess to rigging games for profit.
01:19:18I signed that as the agreement.
01:19:20You forced me into it.
01:19:22Eh, good enough.
01:19:22I can splice something together.
01:19:24This is blackmail.
01:19:25You won't get away with it.
01:19:27Obviously this is a set-up.
01:19:28He's trying to frame me.
01:19:30Nice try.
01:19:30But Billings was apprehended earlier tonight
01:19:32and guess what?
01:19:33He squealed like a pig.
01:19:35That's right, Murray.
01:19:36You and Billings have been rigging games
01:19:38right out of the league's nose for years.
01:19:40And that ends now.
01:19:44This is clearly some elaborate scheme
01:19:47to keep you people distracted
01:19:48from the fact that this man
01:19:50isn't who he says he is.
01:19:52I have had just about enough of you.
01:19:54I can prove that Marcel was and is
01:19:59the sniper.
01:20:07This...
01:20:11This is really you?
01:20:12I wanted to tell you sooner,
01:20:14but I wanted you to have your moment.
01:20:18Fuck this!
01:20:19It's my guy that just killed you
01:20:22instead of your useless wife!
01:20:23All of this would be mine!
01:20:25The championships, the glory, the...
01:20:30You?
01:20:31You accused me of killing my wife
01:20:33and you know the reason she's dead?
01:20:35Stay back for me
01:20:36or I will kill him for real.
01:20:40You accused me of killing my wife
01:20:42and you know the reason she's dead?
01:20:44Stay back for me
01:20:45or I will kill him for real.
01:20:56No one threatens my son.
01:21:09Enjoy prison, Tyler.
01:21:12Enjoy prison, Tyler.
01:21:17Tyler Murray,
01:21:18Cole Duncan,
01:21:19you're under arrest
01:21:20for illegally rigging league games
01:21:22for profit.
01:21:23You set me up, Billingsley!
01:21:25You're a cheater?
01:21:26A fucking murderer?
01:21:28I never should have hired you
01:21:30in the first place.
01:21:32From now on,
01:21:33my money's on two nights tonight.
01:21:36Benny gave us everything that we needed
01:21:38for an outright case against you.
01:21:40And that was before you confessed
01:21:41to killing my wife.
01:21:42It's over, motherfucker.
01:21:44Did you promise you wouldn't say anything?
01:21:46You destroyed my career!
01:21:47I'm gonna fucking kill you!
01:21:49You're all gonna regret this!
01:21:51I'm gonna see every single one of you in court!
01:21:56That's what you did for my family.
01:22:14I am blessed to be here,
01:22:16to be honored as one of the greatest basketball players to ever play.
01:22:24But first, I would like to honor Regina Wallace,
01:22:28a mother and a wife taken too soon.
01:22:32But most of all, I'd like to thank my son, Mars.
01:22:35You gave me the courage to take my life back,
01:22:37and I wouldn't be here if you hadn't given your old man a second chance.
01:22:42I lost my mom,
01:22:44and my dad lied to me about who he was my whole life.
01:23:06So you've got your holo-fame title now?
01:23:09So what do you need me for?
01:23:14You were two weeks old when your mom was killed.
01:23:19I didn't know what to do.
01:23:20I didn't know how to raise you by myself.
01:23:23I had so much pain, and I just wanted it to go away.
01:23:29I needed you.
01:23:32You walked away when I was just a kid.
01:23:35I know.
01:23:36I abandoned you, my son.
01:23:39And I lived in fear and guilt.
01:23:42And I am sorry.
01:23:43I want to believe him.
01:23:45But after a lifetime of empty promises,
01:23:48I'm scared he'll walk away again.
01:23:53These are for you.
01:23:57It's twenty letters.
01:23:59I wrote one every year on your birthday.
01:24:04I never forgot you.
01:24:16I love you.
01:24:19Some pardon.
01:24:24I can't believe the sniper's my dad.
01:24:28There's a lot of things you don't know about me.
01:24:32Like, how you're hooking up with the CFO of the UBA?
01:24:38Mom would want you to be happy.
01:24:42So do I, I guess.
01:24:51I can't believe I'm dating the sniper.
01:25:00Your son's lucky to have you.
01:25:03I'm lucky one.
01:25:06Hey, Mars.
01:25:09You want to get a burger?
01:25:09I'll see you later.
01:25:10Bye.
01:25:11Bye.
01:25:13Bye.
01:25:17Bye.
01:25:19Bye.
