WEBVTT

00:00:34.122 --> 00:00:36.040
Let's make somethin' together.

00:01:00.523 --> 00:01:02.150
It's the king.

00:01:02.150 --> 00:01:04.360
The king, the king,
the king, the king.

00:02:02.293 --> 00:02:05.004
Oh, jump shot. Go on.

00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:09.259
He's heating up.

00:02:09.259 --> 00:02:11.219
Watch out, Sian. Move.

00:02:11.219 --> 00:02:13.388
He's on fire.

00:02:13.388 --> 00:02:14.806
Oh, you're on a game?
I got next.

00:02:14.806 --> 00:02:17.016
Too late, Dru.
I already called it.

00:02:18.101 --> 00:02:20.103
You couldn't grab us no cereal?

00:02:20.103 --> 00:02:21.312
Do I look like your maid?

00:02:21.312 --> 00:02:24.274
Nah. One of you farted.

00:02:24.274 --> 00:02:25.400
Pause the game, LeBron.

00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:27.402
I will, right after I...

00:02:27.402 --> 00:02:29.529
Slam dunk.

00:02:30.321 --> 00:02:32.407
- Yo!
- Yo!

00:02:35.326 --> 00:02:37.453
Oh, my bad.

00:02:37.453 --> 00:02:39.247
It's not even funny.

00:02:39.247 --> 00:02:40.748
That's funny.

00:02:40.748 --> 00:02:42.333
Boys...

00:02:42.333 --> 00:02:43.960
- What...?
- Sup, Coach.

00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:45.712
- Sup, Coach. -DRU: Hi, Dad.
- Sup, Coach.

00:02:45.712 --> 00:02:47.255
Hey, Coach. - Y'all get
ready for the game.

00:02:47.255 --> 00:02:49.132
I want to get
to Salvation Army early.

00:02:49.132 --> 00:02:50.341
And clean this mess up.

00:02:50.341 --> 00:02:51.592
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.

00:02:51.592 --> 00:02:54.887
- Hurry up.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

00:02:54.887 --> 00:02:55.972
Right there.

00:02:58.599 --> 00:02:59.976
Nah, for real.

00:02:59.976 --> 00:03:01.185
One of y'all stink.

00:03:01.185 --> 00:03:02.687
Y'all gotta get that
checked out.

00:03:02.687 --> 00:03:04.063
Yo, no.

00:03:04.063 --> 00:03:05.732
It was Lil Dru.
I think it was Lil Dru.

00:03:05.732 --> 00:03:08.192
- Don't point at me now.
- Nah, it was Dru.

00:03:16.826 --> 00:03:19.287
Whoo!

00:03:21.122 --> 00:03:23.708
That's all right, Sian.
Go get back.

00:03:23.708 --> 00:03:25.001
Back in there.

00:03:26.294 --> 00:03:27.712
Three- pointer, three- pointer,

00:03:27.712 --> 00:03:29.172
take the three- pointer.

00:03:29.881 --> 00:03:32.717
Yeah.

00:03:32.717 --> 00:03:34.886
Take the open shot.

00:03:39.557 --> 00:03:41.058
- Yeah, boy.
- That's how you do it.

00:03:41.058 --> 00:03:43.478
Yeah. Yeah.

00:03:43.478 --> 00:03:44.896
I love what I see out there.

00:03:44.896 --> 00:03:47.315
I love it, a lot of chemistry
between the team.

00:03:47.315 --> 00:03:48.441
I like what I'm seeing.

00:03:48.441 --> 00:03:49.734
We were losing this game,

00:03:49.734 --> 00:03:51.152
now we're winning this game, right?

00:03:51.152 --> 00:03:53.571
Remember, it's not how
you start the game...

00:03:53.571 --> 00:03:55.364
It's how you finish the game.

00:03:55.364 --> 00:03:57.283
All right,
guys, let's go.

00:03:57.283 --> 00:03:58.576
One, two, three.

00:03:58.576 --> 00:03:59.786
Shooting Stars!

00:04:11.631 --> 00:04:13.716
Let's go, Shooting Stars!

00:04:13.716 --> 00:04:15.801
Let's go,
Shooting Stars!

00:04:16.636 --> 00:04:19.430
Let's go, Shooting Stars!

00:04:19.430 --> 00:04:20.765
Let's go,
Shooting Stars!

00:04:22.058 --> 00:04:23.476
Hell yeah.

00:04:23.476 --> 00:04:24.810
When I make it to the league,

00:04:24.810 --> 00:04:26.187
I'ma have a big *** pool
in the back

00:04:26.187 --> 00:04:28.439
and I'ma **swim in that *
every day,

00:04:30.358 --> 00:04:31.526
Sorry, Mama.

00:04:32.485 --> 00:04:34.028
When I make it to the league,

00:04:34.028 --> 00:04:35.780
I'ma put an arcade in my joint.

00:04:35.780 --> 00:04:37.949
Huge 40- inch big- screen
and everything.

00:04:37.949 --> 00:04:39.951
That's gonna be tight.

00:04:39.951 --> 00:04:41.452
We can all build cribs
next to each other,

00:04:41.452 --> 00:04:43.037
build tunnels under 'em
so we can hang out,

00:04:43.037 --> 00:04:44.747
- like, all the time.
- Why will we need tunnels

00:04:44.747 --> 00:04:46.624
if you live right
next door, fool.

00:04:46.624 --> 00:04:48.084
You know, like the Batcave.

00:04:48.084 --> 00:04:49.252
Oh, snap.

00:04:49.252 --> 00:04:50.836
We should put a big ****
basketball court

00:04:50.836 --> 00:04:52.797
down there, too.

00:04:54.257 --> 00:04:55.841
What'd we do now?

00:04:57.093 --> 00:04:58.386
I don't know what it is

00:04:58.386 --> 00:05:00.846
but y'all are gonna do something
special together.

00:05:01.556 --> 00:05:03.266
Mm, that's right.

00:05:03.266 --> 00:05:05.810
You know what? Y'all remind me
of a song I need to play,

00:05:05.810 --> 00:05:07.520
something for y'all
to think about.

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:09.230
No. No,
no. - This is a beautiful song.

00:05:09.230 --> 00:05:10.815
Oh, you know what song
we should do?

00:05:10.815 --> 00:05:12.400
- What's that song? By Biggie?
- Oh, yeah.

00:05:12.400 --> 00:05:13.651
We should play Biggie.

00:05:13.651 --> 00:05:14.860
There's no Biggie.

00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:31.127
Your dad's musical taste
is trash.

00:05:31.127 --> 00:05:33.004
But when I make it
to the league,

00:05:33.004 --> 00:05:34.880
I'ma get a bunch of records

00:05:34.880 --> 00:05:37.300
and I'm also gonna get a tattoo.

00:05:37.300 --> 00:05:38.801
That'd be phat.

00:05:38.801 --> 00:05:40.720
Don't worry, Sian,
you already fat.

00:05:42.013 --> 00:05:44.598
Besides, tattoos are stupid.

00:05:58.696 --> 00:06:00.448
We need to hurry
before Ma get back.

00:06:00.448 --> 00:06:03.242
Can't rush art, brother.

00:06:04.243 --> 00:06:06.037
Heard y'all finna
start high school.

00:06:06.037 --> 00:06:08.748
Yeah. Can't wait. Buchtel.

00:06:08.748 --> 00:06:11.250
Yeah. I went there.

00:06:11.250 --> 00:06:14.336
Slept through most
of my classes though,

00:06:14.336 --> 00:06:15.963
but game night?

00:06:15.963 --> 00:06:17.339
It was on.

00:06:17.339 --> 00:06:20.051
- Squad get all the **hoes.

00:06:20.051 --> 00:06:22.636
- For real?
- Oh, yeah.

00:06:23.846 --> 00:06:25.056
Sit still, dumb*,

00:06:25.056 --> 00:06:27.558
fore this lion
end up cross- eyed.

00:06:34.607 --> 00:06:37.568
Oh, shit. Let's wrap this up
later, big dawg. - All right.

00:06:39.278 --> 00:06:40.488
Tat?

00:06:40.488 --> 00:06:42.782
I know you ain't puttin'
no prison ink on my son.

00:06:42.782 --> 00:06:45.242
- I'm sorry, we- we was just...
- I swear to God. Tat!

00:06:45.242 --> 00:06:47.578
I told you about this.
Bron, get back here.

00:06:47.578 --> 00:06:48.370
Tat!

00:06:48.370 --> 00:06:50.289
Boy.

00:06:58.798 --> 00:07:02.009
Gotta come home some time
and that belt gonna be waitin'!

00:07:02.009 --> 00:07:04.470
Come on, Mama.

00:07:54.311 --> 00:07:56.647
- What's good, y'all?
- Oh, what's good, bro?

00:08:00.526 --> 00:08:01.652
Bro, what are you doing?

00:08:01.652 --> 00:08:04.405
That's only gonna make
your arms longer.

00:08:04.405 --> 00:08:05.948
Yo, I grew a half inch
just this month,

00:08:05.948 --> 00:08:08.867
so kiss **

00:08:08.867 --> 00:08:10.202
Whoo.

00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:13.372
Yo, is that a tattoo?

00:08:13.372 --> 00:08:15.457
Yeah, check it out.

00:08:15.457 --> 00:08:18.252
- What is it? - Damn.
- Is that a cow?

00:08:18.252 --> 00:08:20.170
It's a lion. He ain't done yet.

00:08:20.170 --> 00:08:22.006
Cause it look like a cow.

00:08:22.006 --> 00:08:24.216
What the hell
would I get a cow for?

00:08:25.134 --> 00:08:27.052
Hey, where y'all goin'?

00:08:27.052 --> 00:08:29.430
- Heading over to Buchtel.
- Yeah, y'all should come.

00:08:29.430 --> 00:08:32.349
Ain't nobody tryin' to go
to school in the summer, Dad.

00:08:32.349 --> 00:08:34.268
Well, it's about to be
all y'all's school,

00:08:34.268 --> 00:08:37.396
and if anybody'd benefit from
meeting Coach Sams, it's you.

00:08:39.940 --> 00:08:41.692
Boy, what...?

00:08:41.692 --> 00:08:43.986
What... what is that?

00:08:43.986 --> 00:08:45.237
A cow?

00:08:47.364 --> 00:08:50.075
Tell me that ain't Sian.

00:08:51.327 --> 00:08:53.329
Man, that fool don't look
nothin' like me.

00:08:53.329 --> 00:08:54.747
Oh, shit.

00:08:54.747 --> 00:08:56.665
Yo, he got them chubby cheeks
and everything.

00:08:56.665 --> 00:08:58.917
Dang.

00:08:58.917 --> 00:09:00.085
Relax.

00:09:01.086 --> 00:09:02.463
- Whoa.
- Whoa.

00:09:02.463 --> 00:09:04.423
- Dang.
- It's huge.

00:09:04.423 --> 00:09:06.425
- Hey.
- Yo.

00:09:06.425 --> 00:09:08.469
That scoreboard.

00:09:11.430 --> 00:09:13.265
Boys like what you see?

00:09:13.265 --> 00:09:14.683
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.

00:09:16.435 --> 00:09:19.271
That's what I want to hear.

00:09:19.271 --> 00:09:21.106
1930s,

00:09:21.106 --> 00:09:23.734
white folks moved to Akron

00:09:23.734 --> 00:09:26.779
just so their kids
could attend Buchtel.

00:09:26.779 --> 00:09:29.490
They called it
the Pearl of Ohio.

00:09:30.324 --> 00:09:33.911
Everything was white
and pristine.

00:09:33.911 --> 00:09:35.120
You believe that?

00:09:36.121 --> 00:09:39.041
But now we here.

00:09:39.041 --> 00:09:41.001
Academic excellence

00:09:41.001 --> 00:09:45.672
and we still got one helluva
basketball program.

00:09:46.590 --> 00:09:48.967
And that's why we value
all the talent

00:09:48.967 --> 00:09:51.303
you boys are gonna bring
to this school.

00:09:51.303 --> 00:09:54.264
And I'm not just talking
about varsity.

00:09:55.307 --> 00:09:57.684
We need leaders on JV, too.

00:09:58.685 --> 00:09:59.853
Wait, what? JV?

00:09:59.853 --> 00:10:01.897
- Junior varsity.
- I know what it is.

00:10:01.897 --> 00:10:05.025
Don't worry.

00:10:05.025 --> 00:10:06.735
We'll put some meat
on them bones

00:10:06.735 --> 00:10:09.780
and in a few years, few inches,

00:10:09.780 --> 00:10:11.740
and you gonna be rolling
with the big dogs.

00:10:11.740 --> 00:10:13.784
All right, bruh.

00:10:17.996 --> 00:10:21.124
He goes up for the slam. Bang!

00:10:21.124 --> 00:10:22.167
Another one.

00:10:26.880 --> 00:10:28.590
Man...

00:10:28.590 --> 00:10:30.175
the hell with Buchtel.

00:10:30.175 --> 00:10:31.552
Huh?

00:10:32.427 --> 00:10:35.347
I said forget Buchtel.
Place ***s.

00:10:35.347 --> 00:10:37.307
Man, why you trippin'?
It was cool.

00:10:37.307 --> 00:10:40.102
Yeah, for you. You ain't gotta
worry about your spot.

00:10:40.102 --> 00:10:42.855
Plus Coach Sams practically
drooling over Uncle Willie.

00:10:42.855 --> 00:10:44.356
Man, that's cause I'm raw.

00:10:44.356 --> 00:10:47.025
You over there downloading
raw ** on his computer.

00:10:47.985 --> 00:10:49.695
If I wanted ***

00:10:49.695 --> 00:10:51.905
***I'd just ask your mama
to mail me some more pictures.

00:10:51.905 --> 00:10:52.906
Yo, that's not cool, bro.

00:10:52.906 --> 00:10:54.283
She just cooked us dinner
last week.

00:10:54.283 --> 00:10:56.743
Yo, yo, yo, yeah, whoa.

00:10:56.743 --> 00:10:57.744
Y'all hearing me?

00:10:57.744 --> 00:10:59.830
Buchtel ain't gonna play me.

00:10:59.830 --> 00:11:01.331
- He ain't say that.
- Yes, he did.

00:11:01.331 --> 00:11:02.374
JV?

00:11:02.374 --> 00:11:04.001
The man ain't never
seen me ball.

00:11:04.001 --> 00:11:05.377
That's some bullshit.

00:11:05.377 --> 00:11:07.629
Come on, man,
it ain't even that serious.

00:11:07.629 --> 00:11:08.964
What's more serious

00:11:08.964 --> 00:11:10.924
than Buchtel trying
to break up the Fab Four?

00:11:10.924 --> 00:11:12.634
We supposed to play together.

00:11:12.634 --> 00:11:14.344
Maybe if you stopped
wildin' out on your pops,

00:11:14.344 --> 00:11:17.264
he'll talk to Coach Sams
for you.

00:11:17.264 --> 00:11:19.141
My pops?

00:11:19.141 --> 00:11:21.351
Can't you see they was
both conspiring against me?

00:11:21.351 --> 00:11:24.855
They shook hands
right in front of me.

00:11:24.855 --> 00:11:26.523
Look, if we want
to play together,

00:11:26.523 --> 00:11:29.401
Buchtel's the only school
in our district.

00:11:30.193 --> 00:11:32.154
What other choice we got?

00:11:32.154 --> 00:11:35.157
And we'll still be
on the same team. - Mm- hmm.

00:11:35.157 --> 00:11:37.117
Only thing is you'll be JV.

00:11:37.117 --> 00:11:39.953
You know, ballin' with
the other munchkins.

00:12:09.024 --> 00:12:11.693
Keith Debrot?

00:12:11.693 --> 00:12:14.029
No.

00:12:14.029 --> 00:12:15.697
Dambrot.

00:12:15.697 --> 00:12:17.783
Who are you?

00:12:17.783 --> 00:12:19.201
Dru Joyce.

00:12:19.201 --> 00:12:20.869
I just need a second, Coach.

00:12:20.869 --> 00:12:23.038
- You're on the team here?
- Nah.

00:12:23.038 --> 00:12:24.373
Not yet.

00:12:24.373 --> 00:12:26.875
But I could be if you're lucky.

00:12:26.875 --> 00:12:29.419
Tryouts aren't until October.

00:12:29.419 --> 00:12:30.921
Well, are you gonna
give me a chance?

00:12:30.921 --> 00:12:33.882
No, like a real chance.
For varsity.

00:12:33.882 --> 00:12:36.385
Varsity.

00:12:48.271 --> 00:12:49.731
What the hell you think
you're doing?

00:12:49.731 --> 00:12:51.650
I don't have time for this.

00:12:51.650 --> 00:12:55.070
I- I just started this job
like 45 minutes ago.

00:12:55.070 --> 00:12:57.739
Yeah, I know.

00:12:57.739 --> 00:12:58.907
I read all about it.

00:12:58.907 --> 00:13:00.534
Is that right?

00:13:00.534 --> 00:13:01.785
Yeah.

00:13:01.785 --> 00:13:03.912
I know what you're thinking.

00:13:03.912 --> 00:13:05.914
You're thinking
like everyone else:

00:13:05.914 --> 00:13:07.541
too short, too small,

00:13:07.541 --> 00:13:10.127
not enough meat on my bones, right?

00:13:16.800 --> 00:13:19.427
Maybe you go on home
and eat your Wheaties.

00:13:19.427 --> 00:13:21.304
Maybe you'll luck
and, uh, have a growth spurt.

00:13:21.304 --> 00:13:23.682
But what if I don't?

00:13:26.268 --> 00:13:28.728
What if I get old
and stay short,

00:13:28.728 --> 00:13:30.272
just like you.

00:13:30.272 --> 00:13:32.607
Yeah, well, then maybe
it's just not in the cards.

00:13:34.025 --> 00:13:35.402
You know what, kid,
why don't you take a hike, huh?

00:13:35.402 --> 00:13:37.445
Kind of like how
coaching college

00:13:37.445 --> 00:13:39.406
wasn't in the cards for you?

00:13:41.908 --> 00:13:43.243
I checked you out.

00:13:43.243 --> 00:13:47.080
Head coach, Central Michigan,
'91 to'93?

00:13:47.080 --> 00:13:49.457
You were fired, right?
Somethin' you said?

00:13:49.457 --> 00:13:51.376
No, well, that wasn't...
I mean, I- I never...

00:13:51.376 --> 00:13:52.878
Look, look, it's all good.

00:13:52.878 --> 00:13:54.337
I understand.

00:13:54.337 --> 00:13:56.464
***s when people judge you
before knowin' you, huh?

00:14:01.636 --> 00:14:04.222
You played against
the Fab Five, right?

00:14:04.222 --> 00:14:05.974
Greatest college lineup ever:

00:14:05.974 --> 00:14:09.269
Howard, Rose, Webber...

00:14:09.269 --> 00:14:11.479
I know who the Fab Five are.

00:14:11.479 --> 00:14:13.523
Well...

00:14:15.191 --> 00:14:17.402
Me and my boys...

00:14:17.402 --> 00:14:18.987
we call ourselves the Fab Four.

00:14:18.987 --> 00:14:22.407
Let's go, Shooting
Stars! -

00:14:22.407 --> 00:14:25.744
We been ballin' with each other
since we was, like, ten.

00:14:25.744 --> 00:14:28.204
We can win you
a state championship.

00:14:28.204 --> 00:14:30.206
Guaranteed.

00:14:30.206 --> 00:14:32.042
You sure are a ***y
little bastard, aren't you?

00:14:42.719 --> 00:14:43.845
Yo.

00:14:45.305 --> 00:14:46.348
Man, where you been at?

00:14:46.348 --> 00:14:48.433
I was at St. V's.

00:14:48.433 --> 00:14:50.352
The Catholic school? For what?

00:14:50.352 --> 00:14:51.728
Yeah, there's a new
coach over there.

00:14:51.728 --> 00:14:53.897
NCAA dude.

00:14:53.897 --> 00:14:55.023
He legit.

00:14:55.023 --> 00:14:56.399
All right, that's good for them,

00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:57.859
but we goin' to Buchtel.

00:14:57.859 --> 00:15:00.028
They ain't letting me play
varsity so I ain't going.

00:15:00.028 --> 00:15:02.489
But we're supposed
to play together.

00:15:02.489 --> 00:15:04.866
Y'all didn't seem to mind
that I'm the odd man out.

00:15:04.866 --> 00:15:06.201
I ain't wasting away on JV.

00:15:06.201 --> 00:15:07.744
I'm better than that
and y'all know it.

00:15:07.744 --> 00:15:10.413
Yeah, we know,
but Catholic school?

00:15:10.413 --> 00:15:11.831
They got scholarships.

00:15:11.831 --> 00:15:13.792
If we all stick together,
maybe we could get some.

00:15:13.792 --> 00:15:16.503
They got a lot of white folks,
too, in case you forgot.

00:15:16.503 --> 00:15:20.757
I ain't runnin' for class
president, I'm goin' to ball.

00:15:22.092 --> 00:15:23.176
And you serious?

00:15:23.176 --> 00:15:24.886
Dead serious.

00:15:24.886 --> 00:15:28.056
You really willing to walk away
from Buchtel?

00:15:28.056 --> 00:15:29.557
They got championships, my dawg.

00:15:29.557 --> 00:15:31.393
And girls.

00:15:31.393 --> 00:15:33.561
I mean, what's St. V's got?

00:15:34.938 --> 00:15:36.481
A coach who believes in me.

00:15:36.481 --> 00:15:38.316
Bro, we believe in you.

00:15:38.316 --> 00:15:40.276
Well, you don't set the roster.

00:15:47.784 --> 00:15:49.411
I mean...

00:15:49.411 --> 00:15:52.497
what's St. V's mascot anyway?

00:15:53.790 --> 00:15:55.917
The Irish.

00:15:59.003 --> 00:16:01.214
So...

00:16:01.214 --> 00:16:03.216
we'd be the Black Irish?

00:16:05.802 --> 00:16:06.803
Yo, that's trash.

00:16:06.803 --> 00:16:08.680
Nah, man.

00:16:08.680 --> 00:16:10.849
Them snow bunnies might be
hittin' though.

00:16:10.849 --> 00:16:14.185
Man, y'all know if we do this,
our parents are gonna trip out.

00:16:18.148 --> 00:16:20.483
Buchtel was the plan. We agreed.

00:16:20.483 --> 00:16:22.735
You said Buchtel was the plan.

00:16:22.735 --> 00:16:24.821
Yeah, because it'd make
the most sense.

00:16:24.821 --> 00:16:27.574
Yeah, so you can get a job there
while Bron, Sian, Willie,

00:16:27.574 --> 00:16:30.702
they get to play varsity,
while I'm on JV. Right?

00:16:30.702 --> 00:16:33.079
- Who cares about me?
- No. No.

00:16:33.079 --> 00:16:34.372
It's not about that.

00:16:34.372 --> 00:16:35.623
You were the one who said

00:16:35.623 --> 00:16:37.834
we was gonna do
something special.

00:16:37.834 --> 00:16:40.128
How we supposed to do that
if we ain't even together?

00:16:40.128 --> 00:16:42.630
Let's- let's reason this out.

00:16:43.548 --> 00:16:45.425
All of you want to go
to St. V's?

00:16:45.425 --> 00:16:46.634
We just want
to play together, Dad.

00:16:46.634 --> 00:16:48.553
Willie's talkin' to Illya.

00:16:48.553 --> 00:16:51.556
And- and Bron,
he's talking with his moms.

00:16:52.682 --> 00:16:55.977
Dad, Coach Dambrot,
he's a real coach.

00:16:55.977 --> 00:16:57.312
His squad played the Fab Five.

00:16:57.312 --> 00:16:58.980
Plus he said he'd ask them
to enroll us

00:16:58.980 --> 00:17:02.483
with full scholarships
if we all just say yes.

00:17:07.113 --> 00:17:09.157
I'll talk to your mom about it.

00:17:09.157 --> 00:17:11.492
All right, bet.

00:17:11.492 --> 00:17:13.536
Thanks, Dad.

00:17:14.579 --> 00:17:16.873
Come on, bro.

00:17:16.873 --> 00:17:19.959
What are you gonna
tell Coach Sams?

00:17:19.959 --> 00:17:21.210
The truth I guess.

00:17:21.210 --> 00:17:22.712
Does it matter?

00:17:23.713 --> 00:17:25.632
No.

00:17:26.841 --> 00:17:29.385
No matter what you say, we're
gonna be labelled sellouts.

00:17:29.385 --> 00:17:33.264
This is a Buchtel town.

00:17:33.264 --> 00:17:35.099
We just living in it.

00:17:35.099 --> 00:17:37.018
Look at you.

00:17:37.018 --> 00:17:39.479
Pose for me one more time.

00:17:39.479 --> 00:17:41.356
Come on, pose, Denzel.

00:17:41.356 --> 00:17:43.358
Mama, this ain't funny.

00:17:43.358 --> 00:17:45.401
Shittin' me it ain't.

00:17:45.401 --> 00:17:47.904
Oh, don't be all shy now.

00:17:48.905 --> 00:17:50.114
You asked for this.

00:17:50.949 --> 00:17:51.991
Go ahead.

00:17:55.536 --> 00:17:57.455
Knock 'em dead, baby.

00:18:15.473 --> 00:18:17.892
All right, looking good.

00:18:18.893 --> 00:18:19.977
Stop.

00:18:19.977 --> 00:18:22.313
Oh, my goodness, look at y'all.

00:18:22.313 --> 00:18:23.856
Okay, now tell me.

00:18:23.856 --> 00:18:26.234
Which one of y'all
is supposed to be Carlton?

00:18:26.234 --> 00:18:27.735
- Ma, stop.
- Is it you? Is it you?

00:18:27.735 --> 00:18:29.821
- Is it you?
- Stop, stop.

00:19:53.571 --> 00:19:55.281
Man, with your cheatin' **.

00:19:55.281 --> 00:19:56.908
She let you copy off her test?

00:19:56.908 --> 00:19:59.744
Don't hate the player,
hate the game.

00:20:02.914 --> 00:20:07.001
'Ey. I know this is trials but
that's all just a technicality.

00:20:07.001 --> 00:20:08.252
Be the Fab Four.

00:20:08.252 --> 00:20:10.338
Show 'em how it's done.

00:20:12.590 --> 00:20:13.925
Oh, shit.

00:20:13.925 --> 00:20:15.176
Black people.

00:20:15.176 --> 00:20:17.178
Where y'all been at?

00:20:17.970 --> 00:20:20.056
Right over left.

00:20:26.103 --> 00:20:27.897
So, how come we never see y'all
in church?

00:20:27.897 --> 00:20:31.108
Chapel ain't required
for varsity seniors.

00:20:31.901 --> 00:20:34.654
Jermaine, team captain.

00:20:35.655 --> 00:20:38.282
That's Marlon, Malik, Jake.

00:20:39.450 --> 00:20:41.994
- And back there is Chris.
- Switch.

00:20:43.663 --> 00:20:46.832
Well, um, this Sian,

00:20:46.832 --> 00:20:48.501
that's Bron,

00:20:48.501 --> 00:20:49.961
Lil Dru, and I'm...

00:20:49.961 --> 00:20:51.963
Willie McGee.

00:20:51.963 --> 00:20:53.631
One of the best players
in the city, right?

00:20:54.674 --> 00:20:57.301
Well, in this gym,
you're just another freshman.

00:20:57.301 --> 00:21:00.054
Dambrot recruited us.

00:21:00.054 --> 00:21:02.139
Dambrot's a burnout.

00:21:02.139 --> 00:21:03.641
Y'all know why
he landed here, right?

00:21:03.641 --> 00:21:05.601
I'm surprised you even came.

00:21:06.811 --> 00:21:08.437
Heads up.

00:21:10.439 --> 00:21:11.816
Okay.

00:21:11.816 --> 00:21:14.193
When I was your age, I...

00:21:14.193 --> 00:21:15.653
well, hated being in high school

00:21:15.653 --> 00:21:17.989
and now that I'm back,
I hate it even more.

00:21:17.989 --> 00:21:22.118
So if I gonna be here,
I'm gonna win.

00:21:23.035 --> 00:21:24.912
I don't give a shit
if you started last year,

00:21:24.912 --> 00:21:26.080
or you got a scholarship

00:21:26.080 --> 00:21:29.166
or if your uncle
is Michael Jordan.

00:21:29.166 --> 00:21:32.003
If you're weak or lazy,
you ain't makin' the team.

00:21:32.003 --> 00:21:33.838
If you're slow,
you ain't makin' the team.

00:21:33.838 --> 00:21:36.215
If you **, you're out.

00:21:37.675 --> 00:21:39.343
For everyone left,

00:21:39.343 --> 00:21:42.346
the next four hours will tell us
who makes it and who breaks it.

00:21:44.181 --> 00:21:45.433
Coop, it's all yours.

00:21:45.433 --> 00:21:47.852
Everybody on the line. Let's go.

00:21:50.146 --> 00:21:52.064
Let's move. Hustle up.

00:21:52.064 --> 00:21:54.233
Three- point line, back.
Half- court line, back.

00:21:54.233 --> 00:21:56.402
Three- point line, back.
Baseline, back. Go!

00:21:59.697 --> 00:22:02.116
- * Let the boys be boys! Slam! 
- Let's go!

00:22:03.701 --> 00:22:05.411
- All the way! All the way!
- * Make noise b- boys

00:22:10.416 --> 00:22:12.126
Touch the line, touch the line!

00:22:12.126 --> 00:22:13.502
So what if that
I'm cheatin'?  - Let's go!

00:22:15.212 --> 00:22:18.799
Touch it with your fingers!
With your fingers!

00:22:22.011 --> 00:22:23.804
Yo, is this tryouts
or Fight Club?

00:22:23.804 --> 00:22:27.558
Dru, what's up with your boy?

00:22:27.558 --> 00:22:28.851
Any of you tired?

00:22:30.186 --> 00:22:31.437
Worn out?

00:22:32.605 --> 00:22:33.981
Fatigued?

00:22:33.981 --> 00:22:35.524
Maybe you're hungry.

00:22:35.524 --> 00:22:38.235
If that's the case,
get out of my gym!

00:22:41.030 --> 00:22:42.448
Suicides. Again.

00:22:42.448 --> 00:22:44.200
- Half- court.
- * Slam! Slam! Slam!

00:22:46.619 --> 00:22:47.578
Burpees!

00:22:50.331 --> 00:22:52.666
Again!

00:22:52.666 --> 00:22:54.251
Come on, hustle up!

00:22:54.251 --> 00:22:56.921
Again.

00:23:00.758 --> 00:23:02.968
You're slacking, team!

00:23:02.968 --> 00:23:04.470
All right, gentlemen,
bear crawl.

00:23:04.470 --> 00:23:07.765
Bear crawl now
and you stand tall later.

00:23:12.978 --> 00:23:14.605
Yo, if that was tryouts,

00:23:14.605 --> 00:23:17.316
I don't even want to think about
actual practice.

00:23:18.317 --> 00:23:19.652
I'd rather quit school
and join the Marines

00:23:19.652 --> 00:23:20.945
then do that shit again.

00:23:20.945 --> 00:23:22.196
Maybe Buchtel will take us back.

00:23:22.196 --> 00:23:25.074
Oh, my God,
listen to y'all, man.

00:23:25.074 --> 00:23:26.867
We made the team, right?

00:23:26.867 --> 00:23:27.868
So stop trippin'.

00:23:28.994 --> 00:23:30.704
The only reason why we here
is 'cause you a midget.

00:23:30.704 --> 00:23:32.665
Now we all gotta suffer.

00:23:32.665 --> 00:23:35.668
No, we came here
'cause we the Fab Four.

00:23:35.668 --> 00:23:37.461
You think
them hatin'- *** seniors

00:23:37.461 --> 00:23:39.964
and coach cuckoo bird give
a shit about the Fab Four?

00:23:39.964 --> 00:23:42.925
Dude threw
a basketball at my head.

00:23:46.345 --> 00:23:47.388
What's up, man?
I've been waiting in the car

00:23:47.388 --> 00:23:49.306
for, like, ten minutes.

00:23:49.306 --> 00:23:51.642
Oh, oh, s- sorry, man.

00:23:51.642 --> 00:23:54.561
I would ask y'all
how it went but...

00:23:55.729 --> 00:23:57.856
All right, come on,
I can't be late for work, man.

00:23:57.856 --> 00:23:59.483
Come on. We gotta go.

00:23:59.483 --> 00:24:01.694
And if any of y'all want a ride,
y'all better come on, too.

00:24:07.533 --> 00:24:09.827
Hey, listen.

00:24:09.827 --> 00:24:11.662
Let it play out, a'ight?

00:24:11.662 --> 00:24:12.830
It's day one.

00:24:12.830 --> 00:24:15.207
It'll get better
when the season starts.

00:24:16.250 --> 00:24:17.793
Yo, this is some bullshit.

00:24:17.793 --> 00:24:19.753
- What'd you say?
- This is some bullshit.

00:24:19.753 --> 00:24:21.630
Grab the ball!

00:24:21.630 --> 00:24:23.674
How we benchwarmin' while
Romeo Travis, of all people,

00:24:23.674 --> 00:24:25.509
gets to start for Central?

00:24:25.509 --> 00:24:28.846
I still owe him an ** whoopin'
for stealin' my J's.

00:24:29.638 --> 00:24:31.640
He beat yo ***. I was there.

00:24:31.640 --> 00:24:34.184
- Ha.
- He did beat your ***.

00:24:35.352 --> 00:24:37.563
- They're not very good, huh?
- No.

00:24:39.523 --> 00:24:41.525
- Hey!
- Goddamn it!

00:24:43.736 --> 00:24:46.113
Marlon. Marlon, come on in.

00:24:47.031 --> 00:24:48.115
Get your soft *** down.

00:24:48.115 --> 00:24:50.492
Uh, Willie, you're in the game.

00:24:50.492 --> 00:24:51.994
- Oh, me?
- Let's go.

00:24:51.994 --> 00:24:54.121
Yo, yo, go, go! - Go!

00:24:54.121 --> 00:24:56.081
Hey, yo, Unc! Hey, Unc!

00:24:56.081 --> 00:24:57.583
Let's go, Unc!

00:24:57.583 --> 00:24:59.543
Come on, come on, press it up.

00:24:59.543 --> 00:25:01.170
Come on, Willie,
get over it. - Come on, Irish.

00:25:01.170 --> 00:25:03.088
He right there, he right there!

00:25:04.298 --> 00:25:06.633
- Let's go, Willie.
- Pass the ball, pass the ball.

00:25:06.633 --> 00:25:08.260
Give him the ball!

00:25:08.260 --> 00:25:09.011
Hey, pass him the ball. Pass it.

00:25:09.011 --> 00:25:10.596
- Come on, man.
- Come on, man.

00:25:10.596 --> 00:25:11.972
This some bullshit.

00:25:11.972 --> 00:25:13.807
They ain't passing Willie
the ball.

00:25:13.807 --> 00:25:15.392
- He ain't gettin' no love.
- Why you holding onto it?

00:25:15.392 --> 00:25:17.186
Shut up, Dru.

00:25:17.186 --> 00:25:18.729
Just shut up.

00:25:18.729 --> 00:25:20.606
- Give it to three- four!
- All right now.

00:25:20.731 --> 00:25:22.149
- Yo, yo.
- Yeah, Willie.

00:25:22.149 --> 00:25:23.317
There he is, yeah.

00:25:32.117 --> 00:25:34.870
Ain't no way you ain't makin'
the rotation after tonight.

00:25:34.870 --> 00:25:36.538
Just sayin', if they would've
put you in earlier,

00:25:36.538 --> 00:25:37.831
we would've won.

00:25:37.831 --> 00:25:39.583
You was the only one playin' D.

00:25:39.583 --> 00:25:40.876
Man, if we all was out there,

00:25:40.876 --> 00:25:42.711
we would've been blew
they *** out.

00:25:43.504 --> 00:25:45.047
So y'all got something to say?

00:25:46.173 --> 00:25:47.758
Nobody was talkin' to you.

00:25:47.758 --> 00:25:49.051
If you got a problem
with the rotation,

00:25:49.051 --> 00:25:51.136
go ahead and take it up
with coach.

00:25:51.136 --> 00:25:52.638
But that's right.

00:25:52.638 --> 00:25:54.139
'Cause he don't want
to hear shit you gotta say.

00:25:54.139 --> 00:25:56.475
- We ain't come to not play.
- But y'all ain't special.

00:25:56.475 --> 00:25:58.352
You pay your dues
just like we had to,

00:25:58.352 --> 00:25:59.978
like everybody.

00:25:59.978 --> 00:26:01.813
And if you don't like it,
then quit.

00:26:01.813 --> 00:26:03.982
Y'all ain't doin' nothin' else
out there other than losin'.

00:26:03.982 --> 00:26:05.400
Hold on, hold on, hold on.

00:26:05.400 --> 00:26:07.069
What'd you say?

00:26:07.069 --> 00:26:08.153
Oh, you heard me.

00:26:08.153 --> 00:26:09.488
Yeah, you deaf?

00:26:09.488 --> 00:26:10.864
Want me to say it louder,
Mr. seven points,

00:26:10.864 --> 00:26:12.491
five rebounds, four turnovers?

00:26:12.491 --> 00:26:13.825
The season hasn't even
started yet

00:26:13.825 --> 00:26:15.327
and I'm already sick
of these punks.

00:26:15.327 --> 00:26:16.995
- Man, what?
- What'd you say?

00:26:16.995 --> 00:26:18.997
Hold on. All right,
all right, all right, all right.

00:26:18.997 --> 00:26:20.374
So y'all think
you're better than us, right?

00:26:20.374 --> 00:26:22.334
- Duh.
- For sure.

00:26:22.334 --> 00:26:24.169
So meet here tomorrow at 4:00

00:26:24.169 --> 00:26:25.587
and then we'll see what's up.

00:26:25.587 --> 00:26:28.048
Man, girls volleyball practice
is at 4:00.

00:26:28.048 --> 00:26:29.341
How do you know that?

00:26:29.341 --> 00:26:31.510
How you not?

00:26:31.510 --> 00:26:33.762
I mean,
Bettes Park is always open.

00:26:33.762 --> 00:26:35.556
If y'all ain't scared.

00:26:36.723 --> 00:26:38.475
Y'all versus the Fab Four.

00:26:50.904 --> 00:26:52.197
Oh.

00:26:52.197 --> 00:26:54.533
I didn't think you guys
were gonna show up.

00:26:54.533 --> 00:26:56.034
Why?

00:26:56.034 --> 00:26:57.536
Ain't nobody scared.

00:27:01.581 --> 00:27:03.041
Those matchin' shirts is cute.

00:27:03.041 --> 00:27:05.294
Well, you gotta earn these, playboy**.

00:27:06.837 --> 00:27:10.382
Hey, James Podeski.

00:27:10.382 --> 00:27:13.385
But, uh, you can call me Jimmy.

00:27:13.385 --> 00:27:15.595
Cap said I'm your fifth man?

00:27:18.390 --> 00:27:20.225
First to 21?

00:27:20.225 --> 00:27:21.601
Let's do it.

00:27:23.687 --> 00:27:25.897
We up.

00:27:28.317 --> 00:27:30.777
- Get up. Hey!

00:27:30.777 --> 00:27:32.529
- Yeah.
- Set me up, set me up.

00:27:32.529 --> 00:27:33.488
Swing, swing, swing. Yep.

00:27:33.488 --> 00:27:34.906
Nah, it's mine.

00:27:34.906 --> 00:27:36.116
Oh!

00:27:36.867 --> 00:27:38.827
Push it!

00:27:39.953 --> 00:27:41.413
- Oh, get... take that.
- Oh, hey, Willie, Willie,

00:27:41.413 --> 00:27:42.914
you got it, you got it.

00:27:42.914 --> 00:27:45.375
- Oh, my goodness.
- Hey!

00:27:47.127 --> 00:27:48.253
What up, Cap?

00:27:48.253 --> 00:27:49.755
Willie McGee.

00:27:49.755 --> 00:27:52.591
You know I'm about to go left
and dunk this, right?

00:27:52.591 --> 00:27:54.051
Watch this, my nigga...

00:27:55.886 --> 00:27:59.306
- You are my sons!
- Oh- ho.

00:27:59.306 --> 00:28:00.766
Little *** freshman.

00:28:00.766 --> 00:28:02.267
- Go.
- Get up.

00:28:05.562 --> 00:28:07.689
Oh, my God!

00:28:07.689 --> 00:28:08.899
Wow, that kid's a freshman.

00:28:08.899 --> 00:28:09.941
I've never seen anything
like that.

00:28:09.941 --> 00:28:11.151
Hey, what should I do?

00:28:11.151 --> 00:28:12.944
You're doing it, man.
Keep it up.

00:28:31.755 --> 00:28:33.256
-  Aw, made you look 
- Pow!

00:28:41.598 --> 00:28:43.099
-  Aw, made you look 
- Let's go then!

00:28:44.351 --> 00:28:45.811
Pass the rock. Damn, I'm open.

00:28:45.811 --> 00:28:47.020
You don't have shit.

00:28:47.020 --> 00:28:49.648
Man, they got us down 14- 10.
Wake up.

00:29:06.540 --> 00:29:08.416
Was that gunfire?

00:29:08.416 --> 00:29:09.960
So what,
they shootin' over there.

00:29:09.960 --> 00:29:11.962
We shootin' over here.
Game point.

00:29:42.701 --> 00:29:44.202
Yeah.

00:29:44.202 --> 00:29:45.370
- Yeah, Akron style, man!
- That's what I'm talkin' about.

00:29:45.370 --> 00:29:46.538
Yeah, yeah.

00:29:46.538 --> 00:29:48.290
- Good game, Sian.
- Yeah.

00:29:49.249 --> 00:29:50.750
Yo, Coach.

00:29:52.419 --> 00:29:54.004
You hungry?

00:29:59.050 --> 00:30:01.386
Well, they obviously never get
tired of playing basketball.

00:30:01.386 --> 00:30:02.721
What else do they do?

00:30:02.721 --> 00:30:04.431
Oh, sometimes they play
video games.

00:30:04.431 --> 00:30:06.433
- Thank you.
- Coach,

00:30:06.433 --> 00:30:08.226
basketball video games.

00:30:08.226 --> 00:30:10.228
Yeah, that is true.

00:30:10.228 --> 00:30:13.231
Well, they show
a lot of passion.

00:30:13.231 --> 00:30:14.399
Especially Dru.

00:30:14.399 --> 00:30:16.192
Yeah, my boy can be
a bit of a hothead.

00:30:16.192 --> 00:30:18.903
The other boys put him
in check though, you know.

00:30:18.903 --> 00:30:21.656
They all kind of balance
each other out like that.

00:30:21.656 --> 00:30:22.949
Guess I'm lucky.

00:30:22.949 --> 00:30:24.784
What do you mean?

00:30:24.784 --> 00:30:26.453
I was just trying
to find good kids.

00:30:26.453 --> 00:30:30.206
I wasn't trying to make the best
AAU team when they were young.

00:30:30.206 --> 00:30:31.583
Willie...

00:30:31.583 --> 00:30:34.586
I first saw Willie
at a YMCA game.

00:30:34.586 --> 00:30:36.004
He was amazing.

00:30:36.004 --> 00:30:40.425
He was crossing over kids
twice his size.

00:30:40.425 --> 00:30:42.010
Both his parents...

00:30:42.010 --> 00:30:45.055
addicts in Chicago.

00:30:45.055 --> 00:30:48.516
His big brother Illya
took him in

00:30:48.516 --> 00:30:52.145
and became his legal guardian
at the age of 18.

00:30:52.645 --> 00:30:54.522
Saved his little brother's life.

00:30:54.522 --> 00:30:56.149
Geez.

00:30:56.149 --> 00:31:00.487
Sian... I go to church with
Sian's dad, um, Lee Cotton.

00:31:00.487 --> 00:31:03.740
You know, we just wanted Sian
to work off a little bit of...

00:31:03.740 --> 00:31:05.742
a little bit of his baby fat.

00:31:05.742 --> 00:31:07.285
I hear you.

00:31:07.285 --> 00:31:11.206
My boy, Dru? Dru was born
with basketball in his blood.

00:31:11.206 --> 00:31:16.586
I used to read John Wooden's
book to him in his crib.

00:31:17.545 --> 00:31:21.007
Now it doesn't hurt
that he was so tall,

00:31:21.007 --> 00:31:23.885
but I picked LeBron
because he had skills

00:31:23.885 --> 00:31:26.221
and was a- a good kid.

00:31:27.013 --> 00:31:28.640
His mom, she gotta work.

00:31:28.640 --> 00:31:30.892
She can't always be there,
she gotta pull down shifts

00:31:30.892 --> 00:31:34.938
so she just wants a spot
where he can be safe,

00:31:34.938 --> 00:31:38.316
stay busy and not get in
any trouble.

00:31:38.316 --> 00:31:42.362
If they have the- the opportunity
to keep playing together,

00:31:42.362 --> 00:31:44.489
it's gonna be special.

00:31:44.489 --> 00:31:46.032
Listen, thank you.

00:31:46.032 --> 00:31:48.660
Thanks for coming over
and- and checking on the boys.

00:31:48.660 --> 00:31:50.161
Well, I should be thanking you.

00:31:50.161 --> 00:31:52.205
I was trying
to keep them humble.

00:31:52.205 --> 00:31:54.040
Good luck with that.

00:31:54.040 --> 00:31:56.584
We play St. V's ball
today, right?

00:31:56.584 --> 00:31:58.044
All right, all in on three.

00:31:58.044 --> 00:32:00.255
- One, two, three.
- All in.

00:32:02.048 --> 00:32:03.591
Willie McGee voted

00:32:03.591 --> 00:32:06.678
Mr. Basketball Youth League
Ohio Valley last year

00:32:06.678 --> 00:32:09.013
gets his first start tonight.

00:32:10.181 --> 00:32:11.307
Willie!

00:32:19.899 --> 00:32:21.568
It's hard to believe

00:32:21.568 --> 00:32:24.571
he was just an eighth grader
last season.

00:32:24.571 --> 00:32:26.698
He really contributed
to St. Vincent's

00:32:26.698 --> 00:32:28.449
- young basketball season so far.
- Time! Ref, time out!

00:32:29.200 --> 00:32:30.451
You're not even in position,
okay? - Huh?

00:32:30.451 --> 00:32:32.287
Uh, LeBron. You're in the game.
Let's go.

00:32:32.287 --> 00:32:34.289
Come on, come on, play ball.

00:32:41.462 --> 00:32:42.964
You go, baby!

00:32:48.970 --> 00:32:50.430
There we go, they got Willie
and LeBron in the game,

00:32:50.430 --> 00:32:51.890
they gonna kill.

00:32:51.890 --> 00:32:53.600
This is crap!
Let's see what happens, huh?

00:32:53.600 --> 00:32:56.519
This is ridiculous!

00:32:56.519 --> 00:32:58.479
Jake, stop the ball!

00:32:58.479 --> 00:33:00.315
Yeah, let's go!

00:33:06.404 --> 00:33:07.572
Oh, boy. Wow.

00:33:07.572 --> 00:33:08.364
Oh, boy. Wow.

00:33:08.364 --> 00:33:12.160
Oh, that was special.

00:33:12.160 --> 00:33:13.411
Time out!

00:33:13.411 --> 00:33:16.122
LeBron James slams!

00:33:16.122 --> 00:33:17.540
Ah, let's try this.

00:33:17.540 --> 00:33:19.167
Come here.

00:33:19.167 --> 00:33:21.836
Take a seat.
It's all right, take a seat.

00:33:21.836 --> 00:33:24.255
Sit down, sit down. Here we go.

00:33:24.255 --> 00:33:25.715
Lil Dru, you're in the game.

00:33:25.715 --> 00:33:27.425
Let's go.
Come on, come on, check in.

00:33:27.425 --> 00:33:28.635
Get in this game!

00:33:28.635 --> 00:33:30.970
Sian, get on the court.
Let's go.

00:33:30.970 --> 00:33:32.138
Play ball.

00:33:32.138 --> 00:33:33.598
And Dambrot is doubling down

00:33:33.598 --> 00:33:34.432
putting two more freshmen
in the game,

00:33:34.432 --> 00:33:35.808
putting two more freshmen
in the game,

00:33:35.808 --> 00:33:37.644
Sian Cotton and Dru Joyce.

00:33:39.479 --> 00:33:42.023
It's not how you start
the game...!

00:33:43.066 --> 00:33:44.692
Let's finish it!

00:33:54.702 --> 00:33:55.703
Dambrot. Dambrot.

00:33:55.703 --> 00:33:58.664
Dambrot! What the hell?!

00:33:58.664 --> 00:34:00.917
- They're freshmen!
- Let's go, let's go.

00:34:00.917 --> 00:34:03.294
My son is a senior.
I want him playing.

00:34:03.294 --> 00:34:04.462
Playing a freshman.

00:34:04.462 --> 00:34:06.172
What is this, Hoop It Up?

00:34:06.172 --> 00:34:08.549
We usually give more playing
time to the upperclassmen.

00:34:08.549 --> 00:34:09.759
It- it's a policy.

00:34:09.759 --> 00:34:12.553
Yeah, well,
policy doesn't win games.

00:34:25.066 --> 00:34:27.318
He's a freshman! Take it out!

00:34:29.946 --> 00:34:31.989
A steal from Cotton.

00:34:31.989 --> 00:34:34.033
Outlet passes to Joyce.

00:34:35.326 --> 00:34:35.368
Off the backboard
and James slams it home!

00:34:35.368 --> 00:34:38.287
Off the backboard
and James slams it home!

00:34:40.873 --> 00:34:42.375
Look, I don't think
I'm overstating

00:34:42.375 --> 00:34:43.626
that we way be seeing
the beginnings

00:34:43.626 --> 00:34:46.379
of something special
here in Akron.

00:34:46.379 --> 00:34:48.339
That's how these freshman play!

00:35:23.291 --> 00:35:25.960
Yeah? - Spencer Keizler
from The Chronicle.

00:35:25.960 --> 00:35:27.086
Well, thanks, Coach.

00:35:27.086 --> 00:35:28.504
Um, what's it like coaching

00:35:28.504 --> 00:35:30.673
the best high school player
in the country?

00:35:30.673 --> 00:35:32.216
Who, LeBron?

00:35:33.009 --> 00:35:34.260
Yeah, best player, my ***.

00:35:34.260 --> 00:35:35.887
Kid's always loafing on defense.

00:35:44.562 --> 00:35:46.314
- Max Winter from The Post.
- Hey, Max.

00:35:46.314 --> 00:35:47.857
What about you, Coach?
You thinking about returning

00:35:47.857 --> 00:35:49.525
back to college any time soon?

00:35:49.525 --> 00:35:52.320
I'm right in the middle of a
season with this crazy bunch,

00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:54.030
so, uh...

00:35:54.030 --> 00:35:56.490
Yeah. Hell yeah, I'm thinking
about it all the time.

00:36:19.680 --> 00:36:21.057
This the last doughnut.

00:36:21.057 --> 00:36:22.516
- You want half?
- It's all you.

00:36:22.516 --> 00:36:25.061
I'm good.
I'm tryin' to watch my weight.

00:36:25.061 --> 00:36:26.228
Mmm.

00:36:26.228 --> 00:36:27.897
Watch your weight do what?

00:36:28.648 --> 00:36:30.483
What you mean, "Do what," man?

00:36:30.483 --> 00:36:32.318
COACH You watching
your weight. What? Do what?

00:36:32.318 --> 00:36:34.528
I'm tryin' to eat better, man.

00:36:35.112 --> 00:36:36.906
Hey, guys!

00:36:38.366 --> 00:36:41.369
How's it feel to be pimping
for St. Vincent?

00:36:52.213 --> 00:36:54.298
Gonna be a brick next time,

00:36:54.298 --> 00:36:56.550
you get on the coaching staff.

00:37:08.979 --> 00:37:11.357
- Uh, Mr. Wahl?
- I'm on deadline. What?

00:37:11.357 --> 00:37:12.817
60 seconds to run something
by you?

00:37:12.817 --> 00:37:15.319
I'll be at my office in 30
so talk twice as fast.

00:37:15.319 --> 00:37:16.821
"After a forfeit from Buchtel,

00:37:16.821 --> 00:37:19.073
"St. Vincent- St. Mary's finished
its undefeated season

00:37:19.073 --> 00:37:22.243
with a 73- 55 win over Greenview
High for the state title."

00:37:22.243 --> 00:37:23.911
This is high school basketball?

00:37:23.911 --> 00:37:25.871
My old rival high school, sir.

00:37:25.871 --> 00:37:28.249
Feels like filler for the kid's
magazine. Anything else?

00:37:28.249 --> 00:37:29.875
The star players
were four freshmen.

00:37:29.875 --> 00:37:32.336
I think one in particular
could be the next Jordan.

00:37:32.336 --> 00:37:33.379
Kobe Bryant's the next Jordan.

00:37:33.379 --> 00:37:34.922
So maybe he's the next Kobe?

00:37:34.922 --> 00:37:36.799
Kobe's too young to have a next.

00:37:37.550 --> 00:37:39.969
Keep me posted on wonder boy.

00:37:39.969 --> 00:37:41.137
What's his name anyway?

00:37:41.137 --> 00:37:42.388
Hey, yo, Bron.

00:37:42.388 --> 00:37:44.223
Check this out, my dawg.

00:37:44.223 --> 00:37:47.017
- Hmm?
- Looking like that, man.

00:37:47.977 --> 00:37:50.604
Um... we ain't order this.

00:37:50.604 --> 00:37:52.356
My manager went to St. V's.
Says enjoy.

00:37:52.356 --> 00:37:55.568
It's on the house, baby.

00:37:56.652 --> 00:37:57.403
Oh...

00:37:57.403 --> 00:37:59.113
Yo, by all means,

00:37:59.113 --> 00:38:01.991
this year finna be
straight fire.

00:38:01.991 --> 00:38:03.617
- Facts.
- Hey,

00:38:03.617 --> 00:38:05.244
I know y'all seen her
checkin' me out.

00:38:05.244 --> 00:38:06.787
Man, she was checkin' me out.

00:38:06.787 --> 00:38:08.581
Y'all ain't got no game though.

00:38:08.581 --> 00:38:11.333
Unlike y'all, I get girls.

00:38:11.333 --> 00:38:13.127
Since when?

00:38:13.127 --> 00:38:14.503
Melody.

00:38:15.796 --> 00:38:17.256
Bro, y'all just hugged
that one time.

00:38:17.256 --> 00:38:18.966
Was it Melody
from seventh grade?

00:38:18.966 --> 00:38:20.509
Yo, you're still on that?

00:38:20.509 --> 00:38:21.969
- He's still on that.
- Talkin' about the girl

00:38:21.969 --> 00:38:23.137
from seventh grade.

00:38:23.137 --> 00:38:24.555
Hey, shut up.

00:38:27.933 --> 00:38:29.643
Yo...

00:38:29.643 --> 00:38:31.145
Oh, yo!

00:38:31.145 --> 00:38:32.479
- Nah.
- What up?

00:38:32.479 --> 00:38:33.814
Illya'd never lets you drive
his joint.

00:38:33.814 --> 00:38:36.609
You right, but it ain't
his whip no more.

00:38:36.609 --> 00:38:38.235
You heard he got
a new car, right?

00:38:38.235 --> 00:38:39.612
Know what that mean.

00:38:40.863 --> 00:38:42.323
We in business!

00:39:35.376 --> 00:39:37.086
Last year is last year.

00:39:37.086 --> 00:39:40.214
Doesn't do shit for us anymore
but put a big target on our *.

00:39:40.214 --> 00:39:42.383
If we don't win at all,
they'll say it's a fluke.

00:39:42.383 --> 00:39:43.634
And it'll be a fluke.

00:39:43.634 --> 00:39:45.761
Maybe you see
some new faces here.

00:39:46.679 --> 00:39:48.263
This is Mr. Travis,
who did us the favor

00:39:48.263 --> 00:39:51.976
of getting expelled again so
that he could be here with us.

00:39:51.976 --> 00:39:53.894
What you lookin' at, munchkin?

00:39:53.894 --> 00:39:57.064
Lucky for him, I value good
defense over bad behavior,

00:39:57.064 --> 00:39:59.108
so, listen up, Romeo,

00:39:59.108 --> 00:40:01.652
pull any shit on my team,

00:40:01.652 --> 00:40:04.196
you consider yourself
permanently retired.

00:40:04.196 --> 00:40:05.698
Oh, this here is Coach Dru.

00:40:05.698 --> 00:40:07.658
Some of you all know him,
I think.

00:40:07.658 --> 00:40:09.118
We need him on the schedule...

00:40:09.118 --> 00:40:10.494
Wait, whoa, ho, ho, ho.

00:40:10.494 --> 00:40:12.830
No, he's not gonna save you all.

00:40:12.830 --> 00:40:13.956
Right?

00:40:13.956 --> 00:40:15.124
We're gonna win it all

00:40:15.124 --> 00:40:17.376
because you're gonna work
your *es off.

00:40:17.376 --> 00:40:19.378
That's how this works.
All right?

00:40:19.378 --> 00:40:20.629
Let's go.

00:40:20.629 --> 00:40:22.423
Come on, bring it in on three.

00:40:22.423 --> 00:40:24.508
- One, two, three.
- All in!

00:40:28.637 --> 00:40:30.639
Man, why...

00:40:30.639 --> 00:40:32.683
Why you slide? Why you slide?

00:40:32.683 --> 00:40:34.184
Watch out.

00:40:35.728 --> 00:40:37.938
It's not that he really
broke another kid's jaw?

00:40:37.938 --> 00:40:40.858
Man, do we even know
he broke the first kid's jaw?

00:40:40.858 --> 00:40:44.528
Well, he here now so he had
to break somebody's jaw.

00:40:44.528 --> 00:40:46.447
Let's go say somethin'.

00:40:47.823 --> 00:40:48.824
Hell no.

00:40:48.824 --> 00:40:50.451
We can't keep ignoring him.

00:40:50.451 --> 00:40:51.994
What we gonna do on the court,
sign language?

00:40:51.994 --> 00:40:53.829
What's wrong with that?

00:40:53.829 --> 00:40:55.414
Man, let's just go say wussup.

00:40:55.414 --> 00:40:56.832
- Yo, stop acting scary.
- Hey, yo.

00:40:59.501 --> 00:41:01.670
Food don't got much seasonin'
on it, but...

00:41:01.670 --> 00:41:03.714
you gonna get used to it.

00:41:03.714 --> 00:41:05.299
What y'all want, man?

00:41:05.299 --> 00:41:09.261
Look, bro, we on the same team,
so we might as well talk.

00:41:09.261 --> 00:41:10.554
You can save all that fake shit.

00:41:10.554 --> 00:41:12.014
See? I told y'all
this career criminal

00:41:12.014 --> 00:41:13.557
wasn't worth our time.

00:41:13.557 --> 00:41:15.100
You lucky you got them little
dress shoes on

00:41:15.100 --> 00:41:16.351
or I'd take them, too.

00:41:16.351 --> 00:41:17.978
- Yo, I'd like to see you try.
- Dru.

00:41:17.978 --> 00:41:19.563
Dru. Chill.

00:41:20.856 --> 00:41:23.901
Look, dawg,
we got a good thing goin'.

00:41:23.901 --> 00:41:26.904
All we want to know is
if you tryin' to mess it up.

00:41:39.499 --> 00:41:41.335
I tried.

00:41:41.335 --> 00:41:43.587
I guess, but...

00:41:43.587 --> 00:41:45.547
You can't be serious.

00:41:45.547 --> 00:41:47.341
See he wasn't gonna eat it.

00:41:47.341 --> 00:41:49.134
Oh, your fat ***.

00:41:52.763 --> 00:41:56.099
Sian Cotton!

00:41:56.099 --> 00:41:58.101
Yeah, yeah.

00:41:58.101 --> 00:42:02.773
Willie McGee!

00:42:03.607 --> 00:42:05.442
Dru Joyce!

00:42:05.442 --> 00:42:09.112
Romeo Travis!

00:42:09.112 --> 00:42:12.950
LeBron James!

00:42:20.207 --> 00:42:21.333
I can't hear you.

00:42:25.963 --> 00:42:30.175
And it's a capacity
crowd here tonight in Akron.

00:42:30.175 --> 00:42:31.885
This place
is bursting at the seams...

00:42:31.885 --> 00:42:32.260
This place
is bursting at the seams...

00:42:32.260 --> 00:42:34.179
Pass the ball.
Pass the ball, Dru.

00:42:34.179 --> 00:42:35.764
...as defending state champions
St. V's

00:42:36.348 --> 00:42:37.933
Hey, Dru!

00:42:37.933 --> 00:42:40.060
Pass the ball next time!
He was wide open!

00:42:40.060 --> 00:42:41.770
Yo, listen to your pop, midget.

00:42:41.770 --> 00:42:42.854
Kiss my ****.

00:42:42.854 --> 00:42:43.939
Can't nobody bend that low.

00:42:44.982 --> 00:42:46.942
Ooh, Travis blocks the shot.

00:42:46.942 --> 00:42:48.986
LeBron James grabs the rebound.

00:42:48.986 --> 00:42:53.865
That looks like
he's going coast- to- coast!

00:42:53.865 --> 00:42:58.787
And that's what
we call a guaranteed bucket.

00:43:01.331 --> 00:43:03.792
H- Have you ever
heard the story of King Arthur?

00:43:03.792 --> 00:43:05.752
Yes, sir.

00:43:05.752 --> 00:43:08.213
The boy that would be king.

00:43:08.213 --> 00:43:10.257
Yeah, Bob, I mean,
the score is so lopsided,

00:43:10.257 --> 00:43:12.718
the starting five
are resting on the bench

00:43:12.718 --> 00:43:14.386
and some of the reserves
get a go at the Tigers.

00:43:14.803 --> 00:43:15.971
They want us there.

00:43:15.971 --> 00:43:17.931
And it's gonna be packed out.

00:43:17.931 --> 00:43:19.266
I don't know, man.

00:43:19.266 --> 00:43:20.851
Yo, what's the point
of bein' popular

00:43:20.851 --> 00:43:23.270
if we just gonna hang out
all night at Dru's playin' 2K

00:43:23.270 --> 00:43:25.355
and wait for Girls Gone Wild
commercials to come on?

00:43:25.355 --> 00:43:27.816
- I like Girls Gone Wild.
- Huh.

00:43:27.816 --> 00:43:29.151
E pluribus unum, nigga.

00:43:29.151 --> 00:43:30.527
Seize the day.

00:43:31.945 --> 00:43:33.613
I say we go to that *.

00:43:36.700 --> 00:43:40.078
All right, so,
maybe this was a good idea.

00:43:40.078 --> 00:43:41.621
Told you.

00:43:41.621 --> 00:43:42.831
Come on.

00:43:45.167 --> 00:43:46.877
LeBron James.

00:43:48.378 --> 00:43:50.922
- Tequila or... vodka.
- How are you?

00:43:50.922 --> 00:43:52.090
Vodka.

00:44:03.727 --> 00:44:05.395
I'm gonna catch you later.

00:44:07.230 --> 00:44:09.357
Oh!

00:44:09.357 --> 00:44:11.568
- Yo, for real?!
- I- I'm so sorry.

00:44:11.568 --> 00:44:14.196
Ya think? Agh!

00:44:20.368 --> 00:44:22.579
Oh.

00:44:22.579 --> 00:44:23.955
I'm- I'm so sorry.

00:44:23.955 --> 00:44:25.707
- I did not mean to do that.
- Look, it's fine.

00:44:25.707 --> 00:44:27.584
Just leave me alone.

00:44:27.584 --> 00:44:30.086
Here. Take it.

00:44:30.086 --> 00:44:31.421
Please.

00:44:35.175 --> 00:44:36.468
St. V's?

00:44:36.468 --> 00:44:38.136
Pretty far from home.

00:44:38.136 --> 00:44:41.723
N- Nah, it's just my boy
drove... - It's cool.

00:44:41.723 --> 00:44:43.350
I go to Buchtel.

00:44:43.350 --> 00:44:44.809
My cousin invited me out.

00:44:45.560 --> 00:44:47.187
Buchtel, huh?

00:44:48.188 --> 00:44:49.689
Yeah, why?

00:44:49.689 --> 00:44:51.691
They don't like me too much
over there.

00:44:51.691 --> 00:44:54.194
Why, you throw drinks
on them, too?

00:44:56.196 --> 00:44:59.241
Nah, just you.

00:45:05.372 --> 00:45:08.041
Well, you got some nerve.

00:45:13.380 --> 00:45:16.007
I'm Savannah.

00:45:16.716 --> 00:45:19.052
I know.

00:45:23.765 --> 00:45:25.350
Mm.

00:45:26.351 --> 00:45:28.228
Hmm.

00:45:28.228 --> 00:45:30.605
This is what you call...

00:45:30.605 --> 00:45:32.315
a hangover!

00:45:32.315 --> 00:45:34.109
Why you yellin'?

00:45:35.193 --> 00:45:38.154
Play stupid games,
win stupid prizes.

00:45:44.411 --> 00:45:46.830
Okay, Don Juan.

00:45:46.830 --> 00:45:49.207
Who's the girl?

00:45:51.167 --> 00:45:53.003
Your hand.

00:45:54.296 --> 00:45:56.506
Her name's Savannah.

00:45:57.632 --> 00:46:00.093
Savannah?

00:46:00.093 --> 00:46:01.052
Hmm.

00:46:01.052 --> 00:46:03.346
She cute?

00:46:03.346 --> 00:46:05.098
What you think?

00:46:06.182 --> 00:46:08.727
I don't know,
you kinda goofy looking.

00:46:08.727 --> 00:46:10.478
I don't know what
you might attract.

00:46:10.478 --> 00:46:12.522
Ma.

00:46:12.522 --> 00:46:14.691
I'm just playin' with you.

00:46:14.691 --> 00:46:17.861
You know you handsome.

00:46:20.822 --> 00:46:21.990
Drink up.

00:46:21.990 --> 00:46:24.492
You're gonna need it.

00:46:25.660 --> 00:46:28.079
Can I borrow your car
next weekend to take her out?

00:46:29.289 --> 00:46:32.625
Sorry, baby, I picked up some
night shifts next weekend.

00:46:32.625 --> 00:46:35.295
It's okay, I'll figure it out.

00:46:38.173 --> 00:46:40.717
I don't know why you had
to keep asking for more bread.

00:46:40.717 --> 00:46:42.218
They told you the kitchen
was closed.

00:46:42.218 --> 00:46:44.137
They wasn't gonna do nothin'
but throw it away.

00:46:44.137 --> 00:46:46.514
I want my full dining experience
with my leftovers.

00:46:46.514 --> 00:46:48.641
Okay, whatever.

00:46:54.689 --> 00:46:57.025
Let me see.

00:46:57.025 --> 00:46:59.027
You know I got the magic touch.

00:46:59.861 --> 00:47:01.988
You know I-I got this.

00:47:06.868 --> 00:47:08.411
There you go.

00:47:09.621 --> 00:47:10.997
Nice try,
but you don't get points

00:47:10.997 --> 00:47:13.583
for opening my door
after I already tried.

00:47:14.250 --> 00:47:15.919
You a hater.

00:47:15.919 --> 00:47:17.420
Yeah.

00:47:27.639 --> 00:47:28.848
Really?

00:47:28.848 --> 00:47:30.809
This is not my car.

00:47:30.809 --> 00:47:32.644
- It's my boy Willie's.
- Mm.

00:47:32.644 --> 00:47:35.021
- Mm-hmm.
- It ***.

00:47:39.359 --> 00:47:42.362
I'm sorry.
Let's just give it a minute.

00:47:46.491 --> 00:47:46.533
Yeah, we are Buchtel
and we're always in the fight!

00:47:46.533 --> 00:47:47.951
There they go.

00:47:47.951 --> 00:47:51.371
You can't get us,
we're always in the fight!

00:47:51.371 --> 00:47:52.664
We are Buchtel...!

00:47:52.664 --> 00:47:53.831
LeBron is a sellout!

00:47:53.831 --> 00:47:55.708
Who you calling a sellout, Tony?

00:47:55.708 --> 00:47:57.710
You still owe me $100! Sit down!

00:48:00.213 --> 00:48:01.464
Hey, fellas, let's focus.

00:48:01.464 --> 00:48:03.883
Let's pay no mind
to all this bullshit.

00:48:03.883 --> 00:48:06.302
These the same dudes
who called us sellouts.

00:48:06.302 --> 00:48:09.347
Same dudes who tried
to put me on JV.

00:48:10.098 --> 00:48:12.600
I ain't losin' tonight.

00:48:12.600 --> 00:48:14.185
Period.

00:48:26.197 --> 00:48:27.490
Come on, now!

00:48:27.490 --> 00:48:29.492
Come on, call that foul!
You blind?

00:48:29.617 --> 00:48:31.035
Come on!

00:48:35.498 --> 00:48:37.083
Time out! Bring it in.

00:48:37.083 --> 00:48:40.628
Yeah, we are Buchtel
and we're always in the fight!

00:48:40.878 --> 00:48:42.213
You got pride.

00:48:42.213 --> 00:48:45.550
We gonna let these people
over here disrespect us?

00:48:45.550 --> 00:48:46.801
No, we're not.

00:48:46.801 --> 00:48:48.011
It's a mismatch out there.

00:48:48.011 --> 00:48:49.429
You're too small
and-and the refs,

00:48:49.429 --> 00:48:52.098
they're swallowing the whistle,
so take a break.

00:48:54.809 --> 00:48:56.227
Sit down, Dru.

00:48:56.227 --> 00:48:59.147
All in on three.
One, two, three.

00:48:59.147 --> 00:49:00.440
All in.

00:49:04.110 --> 00:49:05.570
Dru, what are you doing?

00:49:05.570 --> 00:49:06.487
Lock in, boy.

00:49:08.656 --> 00:49:10.575
Dru, that's not the play!

00:49:14.120 --> 00:49:16.080
They're flying at him.
He doesn't care.

00:49:17.373 --> 00:49:18.166
No, no!

00:49:18.166 --> 00:49:20.084
Long three by Dru Joyce.

00:49:20.084 --> 00:49:22.170
And he stuck it again.

00:49:22.170 --> 00:49:25.590
You almost couldn't see him
shoot it, and he stuck it.

00:49:25.590 --> 00:49:27.050
Got to be proud
of the little guy.

00:49:28.718 --> 00:49:30.053
Oh, no, don't shoot that.

00:49:30.053 --> 00:49:32.263
Dru Joyce gets open
deep in the corner

00:49:32.263 --> 00:49:34.307
and he'd done it again.

00:49:34.307 --> 00:49:36.642
Dru Joyce has the fans
here today -He's hot, he's hot.

00:49:36.642 --> 00:49:39.228
just in disbelief at his
ability to shoot the basketball.

00:49:42.523 --> 00:49:44.150
This looks like the Irish

00:49:46.569 --> 00:49:48.071
Is he's shooting that
or throwing it?

00:49:48.071 --> 00:49:50.406
He's catching it, his feet set

00:49:50.573 --> 00:49:52.617
- Here we go. Five for five.
- Five for five.

00:49:55.870 --> 00:49:57.955
He's gonna try another one.

00:49:57.955 --> 00:49:59.665
Check this out.

00:50:02.001 --> 00:50:03.669
Six for six, Dru Joyce.

00:50:03.669 --> 00:50:08.007
He had 18 points
in six minutes of court time.

00:50:08.007 --> 00:50:10.093
Well, but he's...
he's pretty big today.

00:50:10.093 --> 00:50:11.427
Six for six from behind

00:50:11.427 --> 00:50:13.638
- the three-point.
- No question about it.

00:50:13.638 --> 00:50:17.475
18 points for Dru Joyce
to lead everyone in scoring

00:50:17.475 --> 00:50:20.895
for Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary.

00:50:24.273 --> 00:50:25.775
Good game.

00:50:43.292 --> 00:50:45.711
Good game, guys.
Everybody on the bus.

00:50:45.711 --> 00:50:48.047
Yeah. Rat-a-tat-tat.

00:50:48.047 --> 00:50:51.050
Boy, you wet them fools up.
That's what I'm talking about.

00:51:07.358 --> 00:51:09.318
Where you going? You thought you
wasn't gonna see us again.

00:51:09.318 --> 00:51:11.112
Not gonna deal with y'all
right now, man, move.

00:51:11.112 --> 00:51:13.114
- I'm talking to you.
- Sellout *.

00:51:14.240 --> 00:51:15.741
Where's the rest
of your cheap * team?

00:51:15.741 --> 00:51:17.285
Yo, that's Romeo.

00:51:17.285 --> 00:51:19.745
- That's Romeo.
- Yo, Dru, hold up.

00:51:21.789 --> 00:51:23.124
Hey, yo, yo, yo, yo!

00:51:24.875 --> 00:51:26.419
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.

00:51:26.419 --> 00:51:28.796
What is wrong with you?

00:51:28.796 --> 00:51:31.173
- That was stupid.
- Man, what?

00:51:31.173 --> 00:51:32.425
You out here having
Ultimate Fighting Championships

00:51:32.425 --> 00:51:34.218
- by yoself.
- Literally, bro.

00:51:34.218 --> 00:51:36.012
You didn't have to do
that shit, bro.

00:51:36.012 --> 00:51:38.598
Huh. We beat they ***, though.

00:51:38.598 --> 00:51:40.474
Oh, my God.

00:51:40.474 --> 00:51:43.311
I know y'all seen Dru come
through with the Falcon Punch.

00:51:45.062 --> 00:51:47.148
Yeah, but who were they, though?

00:51:47.148 --> 00:51:48.608
Don't worry about it.
They was nobody.

00:51:48.608 --> 00:51:50.901
Yeah, nobody
till we beat they ***.

00:51:52.778 --> 00:51:56.032
LeBron. Six-six, yep.

00:51:56.032 --> 00:51:58.576
And he ain't even done growing.

00:51:58.576 --> 00:52:00.119
Yes.

00:52:00.119 --> 00:52:02.246
Special. Very, very special.

00:52:02.246 --> 00:52:03.873
Well, just come,
come and see for yourself.

00:52:03.873 --> 00:52:06.417
His next game is this Friday.

00:52:08.586 --> 00:52:10.296
A-All right, now.

00:52:10.296 --> 00:52:11.630
Yes.

00:52:11.630 --> 00:52:13.507
Thank you. Good night.

00:52:22.808 --> 00:52:25.102
So, who was that?

00:52:25.102 --> 00:52:26.687
That was Sports Illustrated.

00:52:26.687 --> 00:52:28.481
They want to do a story
on LeBron.

00:52:29.440 --> 00:52:31.817
Mm-hmm.

00:52:31.817 --> 00:52:33.235
We have a big deal now.

00:52:33.235 --> 00:52:34.653
Well, look at that.

00:52:34.653 --> 00:52:36.864
My baby's a celebrity.

00:52:39.367 --> 00:52:41.494
Yeah.

00:52:41.494 --> 00:52:43.537
Guess you raised a baller.

00:52:43.537 --> 00:52:45.623
Mm.

00:52:51.962 --> 00:52:54.006
Coach, Coach. How long
you playing LeBron tonight?

00:52:54.006 --> 00:52:55.674
The whole game? Half game?

00:52:55.674 --> 00:52:57.510
Max, what don't you ask Coach
Dru a couple of these questions.

00:52:57.510 --> 00:52:59.303
I got a game to win.

00:52:59.303 --> 00:53:01.555
Hey, how you feeling
about coaching your son

00:53:01.555 --> 00:53:02.807
in the championship game
tonight?

00:53:02.807 --> 00:53:04.350
I'm just an assistant,

00:53:04.350 --> 00:53:06.143
but I think we're getting
used to the dynamic. You know?

00:53:06.143 --> 00:53:07.603
Yeah, you're gonna
have to, right,

00:53:07.603 --> 00:53:09.980
with Coach Dambrot
going back to college ball.

00:53:09.980 --> 00:53:12.691
Where do you get
your information from?

00:53:12.691 --> 00:53:14.110
You leaving, Coach?

00:53:14.110 --> 00:53:15.903
- No, don't listen...
- Yeah. Hell yeah.

00:53:15.903 --> 00:53:17.196
University of Akron.

00:53:17.196 --> 00:53:19.824
Deals done.
Tonight's the last game.

00:53:19.824 --> 00:53:21.742
Is this not true?

00:53:21.742 --> 00:53:23.536
What's with the questions?

00:53:23.536 --> 00:53:24.703
Damn it.

00:53:24.703 --> 00:53:27.289
Locker room, right now.

00:53:31.919 --> 00:53:34.046
Let's go!

00:53:35.548 --> 00:53:37.007
Ball!

00:53:37.007 --> 00:53:40.052
No, he didn't touch him!

00:53:40.052 --> 00:53:43.389
The 2001 Ohio State Championship

00:53:43.389 --> 00:53:46.267
is underway
and St. Vincent-St. Mary's,

00:53:46.267 --> 00:53:48.561
led by LeBron James,
are dominating.

00:53:48.561 --> 00:53:50.938
Will you listen?

00:53:51.730 --> 00:53:53.065
Listen to me.

00:53:53.065 --> 00:53:55.234
Screen, screen, screen,
back, back.

00:53:58.737 --> 00:53:59.864
No, don't shoot that...

00:53:59.864 --> 00:54:01.782
Okay, okay.

00:54:01.782 --> 00:54:03.409
Okay, get back.

00:54:03.409 --> 00:54:04.952
Yeah, the team is
playing with more individual

00:54:04.952 --> 00:54:07.580
streetball style tonight.

00:54:07.580 --> 00:54:09.248
Yeah, I agree.

00:54:09.248 --> 00:54:10.666
There's been a lot
of showboating,

00:54:10.666 --> 00:54:13.127
which is uncharacteristic
for a Dambrot team.

00:54:13.127 --> 00:54:15.254
Coach, why don't you try

00:54:15.254 --> 00:54:17.006
and talk some sense
into one of your boys, huh?

00:54:17.006 --> 00:54:18.215
They're not listening.

00:54:18.215 --> 00:54:19.592
What's he doing over here?

00:54:19.592 --> 00:54:21.635
This is ridiculous.
I gotta call time.

00:54:21.635 --> 00:54:23.929
Dru!

00:54:23.929 --> 00:54:25.097
Time! Time!

00:54:25.097 --> 00:54:26.515
Time.

00:54:26.515 --> 00:54:28.100
Dru, Dru, what are you doing?

00:54:28.100 --> 00:54:29.935
We got a game plan.
What are you doing?

00:54:29.935 --> 00:54:32.479
One play, not one play
we practiced.

00:54:32.479 --> 00:54:33.898
You know, you...

00:54:33.898 --> 00:54:36.775
You got some goddamn nerve,
Lil Dru.

00:54:36.775 --> 00:54:38.652
I got a nerve?

00:54:39.653 --> 00:54:42.031
We ain't run not one of
your plays this whole night

00:54:42.031 --> 00:54:43.073
and we still winning.

00:54:43.073 --> 00:54:44.783
There's a game plan, Dru.

00:54:44.783 --> 00:54:46.118
No, no, stop with
the game plan shit.

00:54:46.118 --> 00:54:48.245
We don't need you,
we never needed you.

00:54:48.245 --> 00:54:49.496
You just been
riding our coattails

00:54:49.496 --> 00:54:50.706
ever since you got here.

00:54:50.706 --> 00:54:52.374
Dru. -Just so you could
get your ticket out.

00:54:52.374 --> 00:54:54.835
Yeah, yeah, but I worked
my *** off to build you up.

00:54:54.835 --> 00:54:58.047
Nah, Coach,
you just got in the way.

00:54:58.047 --> 00:54:59.548
Now, if you want to leave...

00:54:59.548 --> 00:55:01.175
cool, leave.

00:55:01.175 --> 00:55:05.054
'Cause I promise, don't nobody
care around here, man.

00:55:06.013 --> 00:55:09.099
- Bye. See ya. Sayonara.
- This is ridiculous.

00:55:09.099 --> 00:55:10.601
- C-Coach.
- Hey, Coach. Coach.

00:55:10.601 --> 00:55:11.894
No, I'm not putting up
with this shit.

00:55:11.894 --> 00:55:13.354
Coach.

00:55:13.979 --> 00:55:16.815
Coach, wait.

00:55:16.815 --> 00:55:17.900
There's six minutes left.

00:55:17.900 --> 00:55:19.360
It's a championship game.

00:55:22.488 --> 00:55:24.031
Coach.

00:55:25.032 --> 00:55:26.325
Coach... -I'm not going
to be disrespected

00:55:26.325 --> 00:55:27.785
by a bunch of teenagers.

00:55:27.785 --> 00:55:29.328
What do you expect?

00:55:29.328 --> 00:55:33.123
They look up to you,
and you're walking out on them.

00:55:33.123 --> 00:55:35.000
So you want me to get 'em
in a circle

00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:37.044
and all hold hands
and have a good cry?

00:55:37.044 --> 00:55:38.670
I have an opportunity.

00:55:39.880 --> 00:55:41.173
They'll get over this.

00:55:41.173 --> 00:55:42.925
Most of these boys
been getting over it

00:55:42.925 --> 00:55:44.551
their entire lives.

00:55:44.551 --> 00:55:46.595
Every time someone
gets close to them,

00:55:46.595 --> 00:55:50.307
they end up leaving,
abandoning them.

00:55:50.307 --> 00:55:53.685
Every single person that matters
to them has left.

00:55:53.685 --> 00:55:55.270
Except you.

00:55:56.313 --> 00:55:58.023
Coach, I tried
to keep them humble.

00:55:58.023 --> 00:56:00.943
You said it was going
to be hard but...

00:56:00.943 --> 00:56:03.695
they're so damn good
and they know it.

00:56:04.696 --> 00:56:06.740
Just make sure that
doesn't tear them apart.

00:56:07.991 --> 00:56:09.993
Hmm?

00:56:09.993 --> 00:56:12.246
Got six minutes.

00:56:19.128 --> 00:56:22.214
Yeah. Heard he planned it
all along.

00:56:23.132 --> 00:56:25.384
Yeah, but what's he going to do?
Not go?

00:56:25.384 --> 00:56:27.219
*** that, Uncle Willie.

00:56:27.219 --> 00:56:29.221
We the reason why he got a shot
in the first place.

00:56:31.014 --> 00:56:32.975
Oh, Dru,
this shit not funny, bro.

00:56:32.975 --> 00:56:34.726
It's a serious matter.

00:56:35.769 --> 00:56:38.897
Bro, how can y'all be serious
with this comedy playin' out?

00:56:38.897 --> 00:56:42.234
Yo, stop tryin' to act hard!

00:56:42.234 --> 00:56:44.069
With your soft *.

00:56:45.279 --> 00:56:47.573
Man, stop making me laugh.

00:56:47.573 --> 00:56:48.740
- Yo.
- Oh.

00:56:48.740 --> 00:56:50.742
Yo, what you doin'? Focus.

00:56:50.742 --> 00:56:53.078
Stop worryin' about us.

00:56:53.078 --> 00:56:54.121
- Yo, sit down.
- A'ight.

00:56:54.121 --> 00:56:55.664
Oh, he mad.

00:57:05.966 --> 00:57:08.969
Hey, yo, check this out.
Check this out.

00:57:08.969 --> 00:57:10.721
That's my foot.

00:57:12.639 --> 00:57:15.767
How is that your foot?
I was standin' right behind him.

00:57:15.767 --> 00:57:18.520
Man, Ray Charles could see that
that's my lean chocolate calf.

00:57:18.520 --> 00:57:21.440
That is not your ashy *** calf.

00:57:21.440 --> 00:57:23.150
Ain't nothin' lean
about that calf.

00:57:23.150 --> 00:57:24.443
What y'all talking about?

00:57:26.653 --> 00:57:29.364
I see it, I guess.

00:57:29.364 --> 00:57:32.117
Yeah. Thanks, Ms. Gloria.

00:57:32.117 --> 00:57:34.369
Bro, you can't tell
she was bein' sarcastic?

00:57:34.369 --> 00:57:36.455
- Dang.
- What...?

00:57:36.455 --> 00:57:39.499
- Hey. Stop, st-stop it.
- Get him, Dru. Get him. Hit him.

00:57:39.499 --> 00:57:41.460
Man, you hit hard
for a little man.

00:57:41.460 --> 00:57:42.794
Ma, can we buy your car

00:57:42.794 --> 00:57:45.088
so we don't have to cram
into Willie's bucket?

00:57:45.088 --> 00:57:47.341
Sure, baby.

00:57:58.018 --> 00:57:59.061
Yo.

00:57:59.061 --> 00:58:00.771
Yeah. Oh, damn.

00:58:00.771 --> 00:58:02.898
- Hold on.
- Yo!

00:58:02.898 --> 00:58:05.400
Oh, yo, this is art.

00:58:05.400 --> 00:58:07.986
We in the front,
We in the front.

00:58:07.986 --> 00:58:10.238
Get in the back.

00:58:10.238 --> 00:58:12.658
Yeah, try to sit in the back.

00:58:18.872 --> 00:58:20.582
How'd you pull this off?

00:58:21.375 --> 00:58:23.001
I took out a loan.

00:58:23.001 --> 00:58:25.337
They know we're gonna be
good for it.

00:58:29.883 --> 00:58:31.468
Check out your ride.

00:58:37.265 --> 00:58:39.184
Man, this shit clean, dawg.

00:58:39.184 --> 00:58:41.269
Wait, you got
a DVD playing here.

00:58:41.269 --> 00:58:43.188
LeBron, yo, let's ride.
Let's get out of here.

00:58:43.188 --> 00:58:44.356
Wait, hold up, hold up, hold up.

00:58:44.356 --> 00:58:46.316
What about my car?

00:58:47.526 --> 00:58:49.152
Bro, no, no, ain't nobody
gonna steal that shit, bro.

00:58:50.278 --> 00:58:52.072
Yeah, laugh now, laugh now.

00:58:52.072 --> 00:58:55.492
Just don't forget, when y'all
needed a ride somewhere,

00:58:55.492 --> 00:58:57.327
Who was there for y'all?
Uncle Willie.

00:58:57.327 --> 00:58:59.121
Uncle Willie.

00:59:05.919 --> 00:59:07.212
LeBron.

00:59:07.212 --> 00:59:08.880
He's here. LeBron.

00:59:08.880 --> 00:59:10.632
*

00:59:11.716 --> 00:59:14.636
Okay, kids, squeeze in.

00:59:16.596 --> 00:59:18.181
- LeBron.
- Hey.

00:59:18.181 --> 00:59:20.183
You a fan of Wes Unseld?

00:59:20.183 --> 00:59:22.519
Washington Bullets?
You kiddin' me. Of course.

00:59:22.519 --> 00:59:23.895
This is for you.

00:59:23.895 --> 00:59:25.772
- This real?
- Of course it's real.

00:59:25.772 --> 00:59:27.482
It's vintage, from 1976.

00:59:27.482 --> 00:59:28.733
- Now it's yours.
- Dang.

00:59:28.733 --> 00:59:30.110
Man, thank you. Appreciate that.

00:59:30.110 --> 00:59:32.028
Yeah, you... hey,
you mind taking a picture?

00:59:32.028 --> 00:59:33.738
- Uh, sure.
- All right, great.

00:59:33.738 --> 00:59:37.159
Hey, would you take our picture?

00:59:37.159 --> 00:59:39.077
Please? Come on.

00:59:39.077 --> 00:59:41.663
- Oh, thank you so much.
- Yeah.

00:59:41.663 --> 00:59:43.165
All right.

00:59:47.252 --> 00:59:49.087
Thank you very much.

00:59:49.087 --> 00:59:52.299
- All right, thank you.
- Hey, man, nice to meet you.

00:59:54.426 --> 00:59:57.137
Hi. What'd you get?

00:59:58.930 --> 01:00:00.390
Cookies and cream.

01:00:00.390 --> 01:00:02.058
Yeah, and it's half melted.

01:00:02.058 --> 01:00:04.519
Still good,
it's just ice cream soup.

01:00:04.519 --> 01:00:07.063
Are you done being famous now?

01:00:07.981 --> 01:00:09.900
Done with your
little attitude now?

01:00:11.234 --> 01:00:13.278
Maybe.

01:00:13.278 --> 01:00:15.405
Your food's in the car.

01:00:16.615 --> 01:00:18.491
I think it would be
a really smart choice, you know.

01:00:19.951 --> 01:00:22.829
I'm sorry,
you said something, babe.

01:00:24.080 --> 01:00:27.292
What I was trying to say is that
the class is only 200 bucks

01:00:27.292 --> 01:00:28.877
and it's supposed to be
really good

01:00:28.877 --> 01:00:30.879
and you should check it out.

01:00:30.879 --> 01:00:32.172
Okay.

01:00:32.172 --> 01:00:35.342
What do I need to take
an SAT for?

01:00:36.551 --> 01:00:37.928
What if you blow
your knee out or...?

01:00:37.928 --> 01:00:40.388
Hey, don't put that on me.

01:00:40.388 --> 01:00:41.598
Don't do that.

01:00:41.598 --> 01:00:44.142
- I'm just saying.
- I'm just sayin'.

01:00:44.142 --> 01:00:46.811
I'm going to be making millions
right out the gate.

01:00:46.811 --> 01:00:48.813
I definitely don't need college.

01:00:48.813 --> 01:00:50.815
You don't either.

01:00:50.815 --> 01:00:53.777
Wait, what's that supposed
to mean?

01:00:53.777 --> 01:00:55.779
It means you hit the lotto.

01:00:56.863 --> 01:00:59.407
Oh, I did, did I?

01:01:00.450 --> 01:01:02.118
Oh, wait, I just...

01:01:02.118 --> 01:01:04.412
Hey, everybody,
I just hit the lottery.

01:01:04.412 --> 01:01:05.789
Savannah, that came out.

01:01:05.789 --> 01:01:08.124
No, no, no, 'cause my boyfriend
is LeBron James.

01:01:08.124 --> 01:01:10.043
I mean,
I had to buy his ice cream

01:01:10.043 --> 01:01:11.711
'cause he didn't have no cash.

01:01:11.711 --> 01:01:13.213
But in a couple years?

01:01:13.213 --> 01:01:15.966
Bling, bling, ***.
Gold diggers, stand up.

01:01:15.966 --> 01:01:17.342
Savannah, I was just sayin'...

01:01:17.342 --> 01:01:19.386
I know exactly
what you were saying

01:01:19.386 --> 01:01:21.388
'cause you've been saying it
for a while now.

01:01:21.388 --> 01:01:23.932
I mean, look at you,
you ain't even in the NBA yet,

01:01:23.932 --> 01:01:25.433
but I can't tell.

01:01:25.433 --> 01:01:28.311
What's it going to be like
when you actually are?

01:01:33.274 --> 01:01:35.527
Ain't nothin' about me
gonna change.

01:01:35.527 --> 01:01:37.779
I'm still me.

01:01:37.779 --> 01:01:40.490
Are you?

01:01:41.991 --> 01:01:44.953
You're good at basketball.

01:01:44.953 --> 01:01:49.290
LeBron, you're great,
but if you don't check yourself,

01:01:49.290 --> 01:01:51.501
basketball is gonna be
all that you have.

01:01:51.501 --> 01:01:53.461
Basketball is gonna
be all that you have.

01:01:53.461 --> 01:01:55.964
Basketball is gonna be
all that you have.

01:02:05.765 --> 01:02:07.225
Coach!

01:02:08.351 --> 01:02:11.146
All right.
All right, all right, I get it.

01:02:11.146 --> 01:02:12.313
Listen up.

01:02:12.313 --> 01:02:14.774
Now, I know everybody thinks
y'all are...

01:02:14.774 --> 01:02:16.526
God's gift to basketball, right?

01:02:16.526 --> 01:02:17.944
But we got to get ready.

01:02:17.944 --> 01:02:20.447
I don't need to get ready
'cause I stay ready.

01:02:21.364 --> 01:02:23.950
I hope so,
'cause this ain't last year.

01:02:23.950 --> 01:02:25.952
We ain't playing
for no state championship.

01:02:25.952 --> 01:02:27.829
We're playing for number one
in the nation.

01:02:27.829 --> 01:02:32.834
So if you thought last year's
schedule was hard, think again.

01:02:32.834 --> 01:02:34.252
We ran through that.

01:02:34.252 --> 01:02:35.837
Well, now a whole country
going to be watching,

01:02:35.837 --> 01:02:37.839
and we got Oak Hill next month, remember?

01:02:37.839 --> 01:02:41.342
The consensus number one team.

01:02:41.342 --> 01:02:43.928
Basically,
it's a bunch of all-stars.

01:02:46.431 --> 01:02:51.227
I suggest you do not let this
go to your heads.

01:03:13.791 --> 01:03:18.087
Came to tell you, you know,
welcome to the family, dawg.

01:03:21.299 --> 01:03:24.469
Fab Four is now officially
the Fab Five.

01:04:07.136 --> 01:04:09.055
What does La Quinta even mean?

01:04:09.055 --> 01:04:12.934
It means you
failed Spanish, Negro.

01:04:12.934 --> 01:04:14.936
Yeah, we came a long way
from selling duct tape.

01:04:14.936 --> 01:04:17.105
Man, jerseys sure look
a lot better, too.

01:04:17.105 --> 01:04:19.357
Y'all sold duct tape
for uniforms?

01:04:19.357 --> 01:04:20.733
We came from the struggle, dawg.

01:04:20.733 --> 01:04:22.068
Struggle?

01:04:22.068 --> 01:04:23.695
I had to break a kid's jaw
to get here.

01:04:27.824 --> 01:04:29.409
Y'all really believe that shit?

01:04:29.409 --> 01:04:31.119
But I told these fools
that was some bullshit.

01:04:31.119 --> 01:04:33.663
Man, it's the crazy eyes
you got, you know.

01:04:33.663 --> 01:04:35.790
No, but look, though,
if we beat these dudes,

01:04:35.790 --> 01:04:37.333
we're going to be number one.

01:04:37.333 --> 01:04:39.377
Like legit,
the best team in America.

01:04:39.377 --> 01:04:42.130
- We already the best team.
- Nah, dawg.

01:04:42.130 --> 01:04:45.049
Like Ric Flair said,
to beat a man...

01:04:45.049 --> 01:04:47.593
You gotta be the man!

01:04:47.593 --> 01:04:49.178
Whoo!

01:04:55.351 --> 01:04:56.644
Oh, shit.

01:04:56.644 --> 01:04:58.312
- Oh, what's up?
- Yo...

01:04:58.312 --> 01:04:59.814
I just got invited to a party

01:04:59.814 --> 01:05:02.150
and they said half the league
is goin' to be there.

01:05:02.150 --> 01:05:05.653
Hey, y'all got to cover for me.

01:05:05.653 --> 01:05:07.155
I'll be back.

01:05:08.698 --> 01:05:10.366
Bro.

01:05:10.616 --> 01:05:12.452
All right, bro.

01:05:17.665 --> 01:05:19.751
*

01:05:26.382 --> 01:05:27.884
The Fighting Irish are going

01:05:27.884 --> 01:05:29.051
to have their hands full
here tonight

01:05:29.051 --> 01:05:30.511
with Oak Hill Academy.

01:05:30.511 --> 01:05:32.096
They've been called
The Hoop factory,

01:05:32.096 --> 01:05:33.514
NBA High, and, of course,

01:05:33.514 --> 01:05:37.059
the number one team
in America by USA Today.

01:05:37.059 --> 01:05:38.686
And, boy, are they loaded.

01:05:38.686 --> 01:05:41.773
Boasting a starting lineup
filled with top 100 recruits,

01:05:41.773 --> 01:05:46.360
including the number one recruit
in the nation, Carmelo Anthony.

01:06:02.168 --> 01:06:03.920
What's going on?
Are you all right?

01:06:03.920 --> 01:06:07.131
Yeah, it's just the pizza
from last night.

01:06:07.924 --> 01:06:11.093
Yeah, it was pepperoni.

01:06:11.093 --> 01:06:13.387
He was in the bathroom
all night, Coach.

01:06:15.014 --> 01:06:17.099
Well, maybe you should sit out
this game.

01:06:18.059 --> 01:06:19.852
No, I'm good.

01:06:19.852 --> 01:06:21.229
For real, I'm fine.

01:06:21.229 --> 01:06:23.105
Oak Hills' Carmelo Anthony

01:06:23.105 --> 01:06:24.440
and St. V's LeBron James

01:06:24.440 --> 01:06:26.192
are both leading
their teams in scoring.

01:06:26.192 --> 01:06:27.485
Well, we are going to see

01:06:27.485 --> 01:06:29.695
both of these young men
in the NBA,

01:06:29.695 --> 01:06:32.240
and one of them is going
to have bragging rights

01:06:32.240 --> 01:06:34.033
when this game comes up.

01:06:36.077 --> 01:06:37.703
Yeah, up until this game,

01:06:37.703 --> 01:06:41.040
St. V's hasn't really faced
any adversity.

01:06:47.797 --> 01:06:49.840
Hey, yo, steal.

01:06:49.840 --> 01:06:51.968
Wow, Willie McGee
really picking up the slack

01:06:51.968 --> 01:06:53.761
for the Irish here in the third.

01:06:53.844 --> 01:06:55.763
With all the hype surrounding
LeBron James,

01:06:55.763 --> 01:06:57.223
this is a bit of
a disappointing debut

01:06:57.223 --> 01:06:58.975
on the big stage for him today,

01:06:58.975 --> 01:07:00.393
Go, go!

01:07:03.437 --> 01:07:05.439
Push, push.

01:07:07.149 --> 01:07:08.859
A great game,

01:07:08.859 --> 01:07:11.570
but, tonight,
Oak Hill just wanted it more.

01:07:11.570 --> 01:07:13.948
I agree.
LeBron James and the Irish

01:07:13.948 --> 01:07:16.784
looked good at times,
but ultimately came up short.

01:07:16.784 --> 01:07:19.328
Final score Oak Hill 77,

01:07:19.328 --> 01:07:22.331
St. Vincent-St. Mary's 66.

01:07:30.006 --> 01:07:31.841
Let me talk to you for a minute.

01:07:47.398 --> 01:07:49.859
I want you to take today,

01:07:49.859 --> 01:07:53.529
how you played
and the outcome...

01:07:55.489 --> 01:07:57.783
...and learn from it.

01:07:58.576 --> 01:08:01.412
You are a special player.

01:08:01.412 --> 01:08:03.372
The whole world
already knows it.

01:08:03.372 --> 01:08:06.208
You are going to have
to deal with distractions

01:08:06.208 --> 01:08:08.502
these other boys are not going
to have to deal with.

01:08:08.502 --> 01:08:10.546
I'm just being real.

01:08:13.090 --> 01:08:18.512
How successful you become
depends entirely...

01:08:18.512 --> 01:08:20.806
on how well you manage...

01:08:22.224 --> 01:08:23.893
...the pressure.

01:08:26.479 --> 01:08:28.105
We're definitely blessed.

01:08:28.105 --> 01:08:30.274
I mean, this is the third year
in a row going back to state.

01:08:30.274 --> 01:08:31.692
And I know with these guys
behind me,

01:08:31.692 --> 01:08:33.027
we can make it a three-peat.

01:08:33.027 --> 01:08:35.613
Listen, Dru,
take the ball back up top.

01:08:36.739 --> 01:08:40.284
Uh, well, yeah, you know,
it-it's the chemistry we got.

01:08:40.284 --> 01:08:43.078
I know where LeBron gonna be
before he even gets there.

01:08:49.043 --> 01:08:50.628
No, no, no.

01:08:50.628 --> 01:08:52.546
Run it back.
What you-what you looking at?

01:08:52.546 --> 01:08:53.923
W-Willie flashed out
to the wing.

01:08:53.923 --> 01:08:55.216
I thought I could
get it to him. -Willie?

01:08:55.216 --> 01:08:57.426
They play ain't for Willie, son.

01:08:58.552 --> 01:09:00.429
Well, we've been playin'
basketball together

01:09:00.429 --> 01:09:01.889
since we were ten.

01:09:01.889 --> 01:09:04.099
It's like, natural.

01:09:04.850 --> 01:09:06.393
Uh, coming from where I'm from,

01:09:06.393 --> 01:09:09.063
I-it's crazy to see how
tight-knit everyone was.

01:09:09.063 --> 01:09:11.398
And then they just kind of
folded me in,

01:09:11.398 --> 01:09:12.900
made me a part of the family,

01:09:12.900 --> 01:09:15.444
'cause that's what
this feels like, family.

01:09:16.779 --> 01:09:18.280
Coach, Rome wasn't cuttin'
fast enough.

01:09:18.280 --> 01:09:19.782
Yo, I was right there.
You just wanted to shoot that...

01:09:19.782 --> 01:09:21.617
I don't want to hear that.

01:09:21.617 --> 01:09:23.619
Even when we're not on the
court, we're always together.

01:09:23.619 --> 01:09:26.413
That's how it's always been.

01:09:26.413 --> 01:09:29.250
LeBron's this big star now,
but to us,

01:09:29.250 --> 01:09:30.709
it feels like nothing's changed.

01:09:30.709 --> 01:09:32.461
You acting like
you don't understand

01:09:32.461 --> 01:09:34.004
simple concepts!

01:09:34.004 --> 01:09:35.798
Hello!

01:09:35.798 --> 01:09:38.092
When the down screen come
from LeBron,

01:09:38.092 --> 01:09:40.219
give him the ball.

01:09:40.219 --> 01:09:42.596
Great. Okay,
I think that's good.

01:09:42.596 --> 01:09:43.806
Thank you so much, guys.

01:09:43.806 --> 01:09:45.849
- Thanks.
- Thank you.

01:09:51.605 --> 01:09:52.815
Uh, you see that there?

01:09:52.815 --> 01:09:54.400
That is pure joy there.

01:09:54.400 --> 01:09:56.735
They're just taking
every opportunity here

01:09:56.735 --> 01:09:58.737
and spinning it into pure gold.

01:09:58.737 --> 01:10:01.407
And they're a good team,
but this is unexpected.

01:10:01.407 --> 01:10:03.826
The fans are going nuts.

01:10:03.826 --> 01:10:05.661
Well, with the ten point lead

01:10:05.661 --> 01:10:08.622
and growing, it's like,
no wonder.

01:10:09.373 --> 01:10:10.916
Pass the ball.

01:10:10.916 --> 01:10:12.918
You ain't gotta do it
all by yourself.

01:10:17.089 --> 01:10:18.590
Roger Bacon...!

01:10:18.590 --> 01:10:20.634
Let's go!

01:10:20.634 --> 01:10:22.219
Move the ball!

01:10:24.221 --> 01:10:26.682
Roger Bacon, that's right!

01:10:26.682 --> 01:10:27.891
That's terrible court spacing.

01:10:27.891 --> 01:10:30.060
Ball, pass the ball.

01:10:30.060 --> 01:10:31.895
You ain't gotta do it
all by yourself.

01:10:31.895 --> 01:10:33.272
Yo, time.

01:10:33.272 --> 01:10:34.481
Get open. You're no help.

01:10:34.481 --> 01:10:36.025
- I've been open this whole time.
- Get open.

01:10:36.025 --> 01:10:38.819
Bro, we about to blow it
against Roger got-damn Bacon.

01:10:38.819 --> 01:10:41.822
How we gettin' beat by a team
named after a breakfast meat?

01:10:41.822 --> 01:10:44.074
Cut the talk, pay attention.

01:10:44.074 --> 01:10:45.492
We could still win this game.

01:10:47.244 --> 01:10:48.454
All in on three.

01:10:48.454 --> 01:10:50.456
- One, two, three.
- All in.

01:10:50.456 --> 01:10:52.333
Pass the ball.

01:10:52.333 --> 01:10:54.668
Man, play some defense.

01:11:01.550 --> 01:11:03.385
What the hell, bruh!

01:11:03.385 --> 01:11:05.304
Focus on your game, Dru!

01:11:05.637 --> 01:11:06.764
Watch your mouth.

01:11:13.854 --> 01:11:15.105
You supposed to switch that.

01:11:15.105 --> 01:11:16.815
I'm only helping.
You need to get back.

01:11:16.815 --> 01:11:17.900
***, Chosen One.

01:11:17.900 --> 01:11:19.151
What'd you say to me?

01:11:19.151 --> 01:11:20.360
You got ears.
Get out of my face, bro.

01:11:20.360 --> 01:11:21.779
Don't be mad at me

01:11:21.779 --> 01:11:24.031
'cause you ain't tall enough
to make it pro.

01:11:24.782 --> 01:11:27.076
- Huh?
- You stop pushing me.

01:11:27.076 --> 01:11:28.869
Hey, hey, guys, cut it out,
cut it out, cut it out.

01:11:28.869 --> 01:11:31.371
You gonna mess around
and get a tech.

01:11:35.501 --> 01:11:37.419
12 green.

01:11:37.419 --> 01:11:39.755
Come on, man, think.

01:11:39.755 --> 01:11:40.881
You're costing us the game, Dru.

01:11:40.881 --> 01:11:42.091
Get off of me, bro.

01:11:42.091 --> 01:11:43.592
Dru!

01:11:43.592 --> 01:11:45.385
Get over here!

01:11:45.385 --> 01:11:46.804
Hey, LeBron.

01:11:46.804 --> 01:11:48.430
Damn, get over here.

01:11:54.269 --> 01:11:57.022
Are we really gonna lose
this game?

01:11:57.022 --> 01:11:59.441
Think we might have lost
more than that.

01:12:58.083 --> 01:13:01.044
Man, this shit
ain't fun no more.

01:13:28.488 --> 01:13:29.948
Yo.

01:13:29.948 --> 01:13:32.826
After midnight again, man.

01:13:32.826 --> 01:13:34.536
A couple more.

01:13:39.541 --> 01:13:41.627
All right, what's going on, man?

01:13:41.627 --> 01:13:43.962
What's up?

01:13:49.426 --> 01:13:51.470
When we was kids...

01:13:55.974 --> 01:13:59.102
...I had size and skills
over everybody.

01:14:03.857 --> 01:14:06.902
But it's like...

01:14:06.902 --> 01:14:11.031
they got better
and I just stayed the same.

01:14:16.912 --> 01:14:21.124
What happens if nobody wants me?

01:14:21.750 --> 01:14:24.127
Get up, man.

01:14:26.963 --> 01:14:28.465
Let me ask you something,
why you think the boys

01:14:28.465 --> 01:14:31.676
been calling you Uncle Willie
since y'all was 11?

01:14:33.512 --> 01:14:35.597
What's that got to do
with anything?

01:14:36.223 --> 01:14:38.600
You a leader, Willie.

01:14:38.600 --> 01:14:40.936
Just 'cause you ain't leading
down the path you thought,

01:14:40.936 --> 01:14:43.438
does not mean
you ain't on your way.

01:14:47.984 --> 01:14:49.528
You hear what I'm saying?

01:14:55.325 --> 01:14:58.120
You're a whole lot more than
just basketball, little bro.

01:15:10.841 --> 01:15:12.509
What you doing here?

01:15:12.509 --> 01:15:14.678
Nice to see you, too.

01:15:17.597 --> 01:15:19.057
You should be proud.

01:15:19.057 --> 01:15:21.184
You guys had a good season.

01:15:21.810 --> 01:15:22.936
You boys are looking good.

01:15:22.936 --> 01:15:24.396
When are we not?

01:15:25.897 --> 01:15:27.607
Roger Bacon ring a bell?

01:15:28.400 --> 01:15:29.860
You come here to break my *?

01:15:29.860 --> 01:15:31.236
Only partly.

01:15:31.945 --> 01:15:33.780
My point guard
graduates this year.

01:15:37.701 --> 01:15:39.911
You want me to come play
for you?

01:15:39.911 --> 01:15:41.329
You're a good player, Dru.

01:15:41.329 --> 01:15:43.832
I enjoyed coaching you.

01:15:43.832 --> 01:15:47.711
So much you dipped out on us
first chance you got.

01:15:55.385 --> 01:15:57.220
I wanted back in college ball.

01:15:57.220 --> 01:15:59.681
I saw my shot and I took it.

01:15:59.681 --> 01:16:02.058
Not going to apologize for that.

01:16:06.730 --> 01:16:10.734
It doesn't mean I'm blind
to what you boys did for me.

01:16:10.734 --> 01:16:11.985
Or that I forgot
what I was doing

01:16:11.985 --> 01:16:14.279
in this school
in the first place.

01:16:15.196 --> 01:16:17.115
It's not like
I left you high and dry.

01:16:17.115 --> 01:16:19.117
I knew you'd be in good hands.

01:16:20.076 --> 01:16:22.245
I wanted to make great players
out of you.

01:16:23.121 --> 01:16:24.789
And I did.

01:16:26.291 --> 01:16:29.252
Your dad wants
to make great men.

01:16:30.086 --> 01:16:32.422
That'll last you a lot longer.

01:16:33.006 --> 01:16:35.133
Don't forget that.

01:16:38.261 --> 01:16:39.763
Give me a call.

01:17:00.533 --> 01:17:02.077
So we just ain't gonna
talk to each other

01:17:02.077 --> 01:17:04.204
for the whole season?

01:17:09.959 --> 01:17:12.671
I got somethin' to say.

01:17:22.514 --> 01:17:26.935
Look, I came here to play ball,

01:17:26.935 --> 01:17:28.478
to put in work.

01:17:28.478 --> 01:17:32.482
So while I'm here,
that's what I plan to do.

01:17:35.318 --> 01:17:39.656
Before practice, after practice,
it's whatever.

01:17:40.865 --> 01:17:45.286
But when we get on that court,
it's strictly business.

01:17:46.663 --> 01:17:48.164
You feel me?

01:17:50.625 --> 01:17:51.793
Yeah.

01:17:52.794 --> 01:17:54.462
All right.

01:17:55.380 --> 01:17:58.425
Well, we got Oak Hill
next month, so...

01:18:02.345 --> 01:18:04.848
So we do what we gotta do.

01:18:19.821 --> 01:18:21.698
A high school game
here in Cleveland

01:18:21.698 --> 01:18:24.534
has attracted a crowd
of 10,000 here tonight.

01:18:24.534 --> 01:18:26.703
But it's not just
any high school game.

01:18:26.703 --> 01:18:28.413
It's phenom LeBron James

01:18:28.413 --> 01:18:31.291
against the number one ranked
team in the country, Oak Hill.

01:18:31.291 --> 01:18:34.586
LeBron mania goes national
here tonight.

01:18:34.586 --> 01:18:36.546
He's one of those
teenage phenoms

01:18:36.546 --> 01:18:38.506
that come along
in their given sport

01:18:38.506 --> 01:18:40.466
and are so gifted
and all I know is

01:18:40.466 --> 01:18:43.761
if he's half as good
as all I've heard about him,

01:18:43.761 --> 01:18:46.181
he is going to be
one special athlete.

01:20:03.591 --> 01:20:05.134
Good game, man.

01:20:09.639 --> 01:20:11.641
LeBron, can we have a word
with you?

01:20:11.641 --> 01:20:13.267
Oh, no, yeah, of course.

01:20:13.267 --> 01:20:14.769
Love you.

01:20:14.769 --> 01:20:16.437
You've been on the cover
of Sports Illustrated,

01:20:16.437 --> 01:20:18.272
ESPN and USA Today.

01:20:18.272 --> 01:20:19.774
That must be a bit surreal.

01:20:19.774 --> 01:20:21.609
What do you think?
Is it too much pressure for you?

01:20:21.609 --> 01:20:23.194
No, no, it's never no pressure.

01:20:23.194 --> 01:20:24.696
No, I just come in there,
play my game,

01:20:24.696 --> 01:20:26.656
and get my teammates involved.

01:20:26.656 --> 01:20:28.282
You know,
when I'm with my boys, man,

01:20:28.282 --> 01:20:31.119
I'm always focused
like no other. For real.

01:20:31.119 --> 01:20:33.913
And tonight, we played the
number one team in the country.

01:20:33.913 --> 01:20:37.458
We gave it our all, 110%,
like we do every other night.

01:20:37.458 --> 01:20:38.710
We all do it together.

01:20:38.710 --> 01:20:39.836
Well, congrats.

01:20:39.836 --> 01:20:42.797
- Enjoy the win.
- Thank you.

01:21:03.901 --> 01:21:06.028
What happen, somebody die?

01:21:09.532 --> 01:21:11.367
A bribe? That's bullshit.

01:21:11.367 --> 01:21:12.827
It's what they're claiming.

01:21:12.827 --> 01:21:14.745
It was a jersey
a random dude just gave me.

01:21:14.745 --> 01:21:17.081
a vintage jersey worth $1,800.

01:21:17.081 --> 01:21:19.000
How the hell is he supposed
to know that?

01:21:19.000 --> 01:21:20.710
Regardless, it was over
the permissible limits

01:21:20.710 --> 01:21:23.212
- set by OHSAA.
- It was from a fan.

01:21:23.212 --> 01:21:25.339
Not a coach,
not a booster. A fan.

01:21:25.339 --> 01:21:29.260
Besides, all the players
get sponsored gear.

01:21:29.260 --> 01:21:32.680
If the donor isn't a family
member, it's considered a bribe.

01:21:32.680 --> 01:21:34.932
But it was just
some random dude.

01:21:34.932 --> 01:21:36.392
This is witch hunt, Dave.

01:21:36.392 --> 01:21:39.729
There's been some very generous
alumni endowments

01:21:39.729 --> 01:21:42.190
since these boys
stepped foot on this campus.

01:21:42.190 --> 01:21:44.192
Don't you think we owe him
our support?

01:21:44.192 --> 01:21:47.195
The only thing that St. V
owes anyone is a good education,

01:21:47.195 --> 01:21:48.946
and-and the look
of a high school player

01:21:48.946 --> 01:21:50.990
driving a Hummer doesn't help.

01:21:50.990 --> 01:21:53.910
Please, no disrespect.

01:21:53.910 --> 01:21:56.704
And, yes, I know what this is.

01:21:56.704 --> 01:21:59.498
Look, it's not my call.

01:22:00.458 --> 01:22:03.586
LeBron, you're suspended
for the rest of the season,

01:22:03.586 --> 01:22:05.046
pending appeal.

01:22:05.046 --> 01:22:07.048
- Are you serious?
- No, you know this isn't right.

01:22:07.048 --> 01:22:08.257
- Mom.
- You can go to the games,

01:22:08.257 --> 01:22:09.550
but you're not allowed
to suit up

01:22:09.550 --> 01:22:10.927
or interact with the players?

01:22:10.927 --> 01:22:13.304
For all intents and purposes,

01:22:13.304 --> 01:22:15.973
you're not a part
of the team anymore.

01:22:22.313 --> 01:22:24.357
He's just a kid.

01:22:26.359 --> 01:22:29.528
Just... Let's go.

01:22:29.528 --> 01:22:31.280
Come on, let's go.

01:22:34.075 --> 01:22:37.286
A controversial Ohio High School
Athletic Association

01:22:37.286 --> 01:22:41.916
ruling today involving
basketball phenom LeBron James.

01:22:41.916 --> 01:22:46.087
This ruling means not only
is LeBron James ineligible

01:22:46.087 --> 01:22:47.672
for the remainder of the season,

01:22:48.464 --> 01:22:51.342
Here's the OHSAA commissioner,
Clair Muscaro.

01:22:51.342 --> 01:22:56.722
The OHSAA is not persecuting
one student athlete.

01:22:56.722 --> 01:23:01.602
Rather, we are protecting every
student athlete on every team.

01:23:01.602 --> 01:23:03.229
Bullshit.

01:23:09.986 --> 01:23:11.445
Yo, Bron.

01:23:11.445 --> 01:23:13.531
It's Unc checking up on you.

01:23:13.531 --> 01:23:15.324
Illya told me to save it up.

01:23:16.701 --> 01:23:19.245
I'm just letting you know, man,
we got your back, all right?

01:23:22.039 --> 01:23:24.542
Yo, big dawg.

01:23:24.542 --> 01:23:26.127
Just calling to check on you.

01:23:26.127 --> 01:23:30.047
Um, you know, you know,
we gonna get through this.

01:23:30.047 --> 01:23:31.215
Don't stress it.

01:23:33.884 --> 01:23:35.344
Hey, yo, Bron,
I heard what happened, man.

01:23:35.344 --> 01:23:36.804
That's some bullshit.

01:23:36.804 --> 01:23:39.348
Forget Clair,
or whatever his name is.

01:23:39.348 --> 01:23:41.767
Just hit me back, bro.

01:24:17.553 --> 01:24:19.680
Listen up, listen up.

01:24:19.680 --> 01:24:22.057
Y'all know who ain't here, right?

01:24:22.057 --> 01:24:24.018
But we here. We here.

01:24:24.018 --> 01:24:26.854
It don't matter that
everybody written us off

01:24:26.854 --> 01:24:28.981
because we know
what we capable of.

01:24:28.981 --> 01:24:30.858
So, let's go out there
and show these fools

01:24:30.858 --> 01:24:32.651
that we're more
than just one player.

01:24:32.651 --> 01:24:34.195
A'ight? A'ight?

01:24:34.195 --> 01:24:35.571
More than just one player.

01:24:35.571 --> 01:24:37.531
A'ight, all in on three.

01:24:37.531 --> 01:24:39.867
- One, two, three.
- All in!

01:24:39.867 --> 01:24:42.953
Tonight St. V's goes
against Canton McKinley.

01:24:42.953 --> 01:24:44.288
Both teams need this game

01:24:44.288 --> 01:24:46.790
to continue
to the state championship.

01:24:47.833 --> 01:24:50.294
Yeah, and the whole
state of Ohio is aware tonight

01:24:50.294 --> 01:24:54.465
LeBron James
will not be on the court.

01:24:54.465 --> 01:24:55.966
You know,
this is when the phrase,

01:24:55.966 --> 01:24:58.385
"Next man up"
becomes all too real.

01:25:03.933 --> 01:25:05.726
And tonight, we'll see

01:25:05.726 --> 01:25:08.562
how this St. Vincent team fares
without their centerpiece.

01:25:08.562 --> 01:25:10.022
Let's go, green!

01:25:16.904 --> 01:25:18.739
To Romeo!

01:25:22.326 --> 01:25:23.535
There we go, there we go.

01:25:37.091 --> 01:25:38.008
Come on, come on, come on.

01:25:44.515 --> 01:25:45.891
Yeah!

01:25:48.394 --> 01:25:49.561
Oh, yeah, Willie.

01:25:58.529 --> 01:25:59.571
- Time out.
- Time, time.

01:25:59.571 --> 01:26:01.156
Ref!

01:26:01.156 --> 01:26:05.160
Ooh, ooh, here we go, Bulldogs,
here we go, ooh, ooh!

01:26:05.160 --> 01:26:08.497
Here we go, Bulldogs,
here we go, ooh, ooh!

01:26:08.497 --> 01:26:11.208
Here we go, Irish, here we go!

01:26:11.208 --> 01:26:14.420
Here we go, Irish,
here we go!

01:26:14.420 --> 01:26:18.257
Here we go, Bulldogs,
here we go, ooh, ooh!

01:26:43.282 --> 01:26:44.533
Oh, hey, hey, hey,
come on, LeBron.

01:26:44.533 --> 01:26:46.285
- You know you can't.
- Come on, Coach Coop.

01:26:46.285 --> 01:26:49.288
You'll get us in trouble,
all right?

01:26:50.205 --> 01:26:53.000
I'm sorry, brother.
Come on, chin up.

01:27:09.850 --> 01:27:11.351
You ain't going to say hi?

01:27:11.351 --> 01:27:12.561
Hey, Ma.

01:27:28.494 --> 01:27:30.412
How was the game?

01:27:35.876 --> 01:27:38.003
What you watching?

01:27:38.003 --> 01:27:40.255
I taped my stories.

01:27:42.633 --> 01:27:44.635
They won.

01:27:44.635 --> 01:27:46.512
They goin' to state.

01:27:47.471 --> 01:27:49.181
"They"?

01:27:50.182 --> 01:27:52.518
I ain't on the team no more.

01:27:54.394 --> 01:27:56.355
Hmm.

01:28:00.567 --> 01:28:02.402
Did you have friends
in high school?

01:28:02.402 --> 01:28:06.823
I had friends
just like everybody else.

01:28:06.823 --> 01:28:10.494
Nah, I mean like friends.

01:28:14.581 --> 01:28:18.293
Yeah, I had a few.

01:28:19.044 --> 01:28:21.505
You still talk to any of them?

01:28:22.714 --> 01:28:25.092
Nah.

01:28:25.092 --> 01:28:27.344
Not really.

01:28:33.183 --> 01:28:36.561
That's just how life is
sometimes, baby.

01:28:38.272 --> 01:28:41.483
You go to school,
you got your crew

01:28:41.483 --> 01:28:45.070
and you can't imagine what life
would be like without them.

01:28:47.155 --> 01:28:51.285
Then you graduate
or you move or...

01:28:52.577 --> 01:28:57.582
The real world hits you,
gets in the way.

01:29:00.752 --> 01:29:03.338
And you just kind of grow apart.

01:29:04.840 --> 01:29:06.425
It happens.

01:29:08.927 --> 01:29:11.263
It's really not what
I wanted to hear.

01:29:14.766 --> 01:29:16.435
I know.

01:29:17.769 --> 01:29:20.105
But that don't change how it is.

01:29:24.276 --> 01:29:29.656
What's important is that
when you look back...

01:29:29.656 --> 01:29:33.368
did you make the time
you had together count?

01:29:35.704 --> 01:29:38.623
Did you give it
everything you got?

01:29:45.964 --> 01:29:47.299
Mr. James,

01:29:47.299 --> 01:29:49.509
I'm sure you're aware
that the association

01:29:49.509 --> 01:29:54.181
has no bearing on your
eligibility for the NBA draft.

01:29:54.181 --> 01:29:55.682
Yes, sir.

01:29:57.684 --> 01:30:00.437
I have to be honest
with you then.

01:30:00.437 --> 01:30:03.648
I'm a little puzzled
why we're all here today.

01:30:04.608 --> 01:30:06.943
You're on the very brink
of wealth and fame

01:30:06.943 --> 01:30:11.323
and by your own admission, you
don't plan to attend college.

01:30:11.323 --> 01:30:16.036
I can't see how missing
one high school basketball game

01:30:16.036 --> 01:30:18.288
will affect your future
in any way.

01:30:18.288 --> 01:30:19.873
It won't, sir.

01:30:20.874 --> 01:30:23.126
You understand that presenting
yourself here today

01:30:23.126 --> 01:30:25.629
puts us under no obligation
to reinstate you.

01:30:25.629 --> 01:30:26.963
Yes, ma'am.

01:30:26.963 --> 01:30:29.800
It's just...

01:30:29.800 --> 01:30:32.928
right now I'm not thinking
about the future.

01:30:34.554 --> 01:30:36.681
I'm thinking about my brothers.

01:30:37.682 --> 01:30:40.852
And they made it all the way
to state without me.

01:30:40.852 --> 01:30:43.063
So this is just a vanity play

01:30:43.063 --> 01:30:45.232
so you can be
in the championship game?

01:30:46.858 --> 01:30:48.735
No, ma'am.

01:30:48.735 --> 01:30:51.822
It wouldn't matter
what game it was.

01:30:53.949 --> 01:30:57.828
I moved ten times
before I was 12.

01:31:00.872 --> 01:31:02.958
All I had is my mom.

01:31:05.126 --> 01:31:07.754
She's the only thing consistent,
you know?

01:31:10.674 --> 01:31:12.842
And...

01:31:12.842 --> 01:31:14.469
this crazy coach

01:31:14.469 --> 01:31:17.430
who kept quoting John Wooden
found me.

01:31:17.430 --> 01:31:20.475
One of the only men in my life
that I could look up to.

01:31:21.226 --> 01:31:23.520
He put me on the Shooting Stars

01:31:23.520 --> 01:31:26.398
where I met
Dru, Sian and Willie.

01:31:27.482 --> 01:31:31.278
And, man, we'd hoop all day
except for school.

01:31:33.738 --> 01:31:36.700
Uh... spend nights
playing video games

01:31:36.700 --> 01:31:40.370
and doing it all over again
the next day.

01:31:42.455 --> 01:31:47.127
It wasn't nothing special
really about it, but...

01:31:47.127 --> 01:31:49.963
it was special to me.

01:31:51.047 --> 01:31:56.803
Then we went to St. V's
and met Coach Dambrot.

01:31:56.803 --> 01:31:58.221
And, man, he was tough,

01:31:58.221 --> 01:32:01.725
but he helped me become
the player who I am now.

01:32:03.727 --> 01:32:07.230
People keep telling me that
my life's about to change

01:32:07.230 --> 01:32:10.734
and...

01:32:10.734 --> 01:32:12.610
they probably right.

01:32:14.362 --> 01:32:16.614
In a year..,.

01:32:17.699 --> 01:32:19.617
...I might not be
the same person.

01:32:21.369 --> 01:32:26.583
So if I have to pay a fine,
change my jersey number,

01:32:26.583 --> 01:32:30.795
do community service,
I'll do it.

01:32:30.795 --> 01:32:32.797
Just tell me what to do.

01:32:35.467 --> 01:32:38.303
But please...

01:32:38.303 --> 01:32:41.473
let me play with my best friends
one last time.

01:33:14.130 --> 01:33:16.466
What's up, bruh?

01:33:16.466 --> 01:33:18.676
Yo, what's up?

01:33:18.676 --> 01:33:21.679
Hey, Bron. -It's good
to have you back, bro.

01:33:33.691 --> 01:33:36.528
I heard you cried
in front of the board.

01:33:37.570 --> 01:33:39.364
Like a 220-pound baby.

01:33:43.034 --> 01:33:44.160
- Bro.
- My boy.

01:33:45.203 --> 01:33:48.498
- What's good, bro?
- What's up, B? -What's up, man?

01:33:49.290 --> 01:33:50.834
Look who came crawlin' back.

01:33:50.834 --> 01:33:52.919
It's just sad when you see
shit like that.

01:33:52.919 --> 01:33:54.128
Ain't it sad, Rome?

01:33:54.128 --> 01:33:55.672
It's definitely sad.

01:33:55.672 --> 01:33:57.841
Shut up, y'all.

01:33:57.841 --> 01:34:00.093
- Ready to hoop?
- Hell, yeah.

01:34:01.511 --> 01:34:03.429
Well, Bob,
it's been an absolute pleasure

01:34:03.429 --> 01:34:05.056
covering four years
of basketball

01:34:05.056 --> 01:34:07.475
with the St. Vincent-
St. Mary's team

01:34:07.475 --> 01:34:11.396
and of course, the Akron phenom
himself, LeBron James.

01:34:12.647 --> 01:34:13.815
I think everyone's hoping

01:34:13.815 --> 01:34:15.441
for a storybook ending.

01:34:15.441 --> 01:34:18.444
A low scoring game as we
come to the end of the quarter.

01:34:18.444 --> 01:34:21.781
We now go into halftime
with St. V's down by five.

01:34:27.245 --> 01:34:28.997
Tonight you have the chance
to go down

01:34:28.997 --> 01:34:32.834
as the greatest high school team
in basketball history.

01:34:34.252 --> 01:34:36.838
But...

01:34:36.838 --> 01:34:40.300
I want you to take a minute.

01:34:40.300 --> 01:34:43.094
Try to grasp this thing.

01:34:44.012 --> 01:34:47.849
This opportunity
that we've been given.

01:34:48.349 --> 01:34:51.185
I can tell you...

01:34:51.185 --> 01:34:54.480
when you look back
at this time in your lives,

01:34:54.480 --> 01:34:58.484
it won't be about stats,

01:34:58.484 --> 01:35:00.987
accolades, the X's and O's.

01:35:00.987 --> 01:35:04.240
It's not about
winning the state championship.

01:35:05.074 --> 01:35:07.118
It'll be that person
next to you.

01:35:08.578 --> 01:35:10.788
And no matter how you spin it,

01:35:10.788 --> 01:35:13.916
this is my last time
coaching some of you.

01:35:15.126 --> 01:35:17.670
More importantly,
this is the last time

01:35:17.670 --> 01:35:20.214
that this team
will ever play together.

01:35:22.216 --> 01:35:26.471
Ask yourselves, what are
you going to do with that time?

01:35:34.896 --> 01:35:37.065
*

01:35:55.917 --> 01:35:57.668
What's up?

01:35:58.669 --> 01:36:00.630
Coach, I think it's time
for me to come out.

01:36:01.756 --> 01:36:04.175
'Cause it's time for Jimmy
to go in.

01:36:06.928 --> 01:36:08.096
All right.

01:36:08.096 --> 01:36:09.430
Let's do it.

01:36:09.430 --> 01:36:11.140
In on three.

01:36:11.140 --> 01:36:12.475
- One, two, three.
- Do it!

01:37:40.187 --> 01:37:42.398
Jimmy Podeski!

01:37:48.237 --> 01:37:50.114
- * Outweigh the bad... 
- Oh, man.

01:37:50.114 --> 01:37:52.074
Why they gotta play this song?

01:37:52.074 --> 01:37:54.577
- Are you cryin'
- No shit, I'm cryin'.

01:37:54.577 --> 01:37:57.747
'Cause I got a heart
unlike you cold *** bastards.

01:37:57.747 --> 01:37:59.624
It's all right there, big fella.

01:38:00.791 --> 01:38:02.460
You guys ready?

01:38:02.460 --> 01:38:05.171
Thought you guys were walking
with your families.

01:38:07.298 --> 01:38:08.924
We are.

01:39:21.914 --> 01:39:24.125
It's crazy.

01:39:27.169 --> 01:39:29.255
Man, you abandoning us, Coach?

01:39:29.255 --> 01:39:30.297
what y'all doing out here?

01:39:30.297 --> 01:39:32.133
You know the party's in there.

01:39:32.133 --> 01:39:34.343
Nah, last time we checked,
the party was in here.

01:39:34.343 --> 01:39:36.887
Yeah, but you can't play
none of that *** music.

01:39:36.887 --> 01:39:38.222
*** music?

01:39:38.848 --> 01:39:40.891
How have I failed you all
so badly?

01:39:44.311 --> 01:39:46.522
What do you know
about this, Coach?

01:39:46.522 --> 01:39:48.232
Y'all have to get in the back.

01:39:48.232 --> 01:39:50.359
Yes. Y'all don't know nothing
about no music.

01:39:50.359 --> 01:39:52.528
Hey, Willie,
what you doing, man?

01:39:52.528 --> 01:39:54.029
- Oh, my goodness.
- I got this, I got this.

01:39:54.029 --> 01:39:55.614
- Y'all stink.
- Coach, I got it.

01:39:55.614 --> 01:39:56.782
No!

01:39:56.782 --> 01:39:58.617
No, you ain't...

01:39:58.617 --> 01:40:00.578
What y'all doin', baby?

01:40:07.501 --> 01:40:12.548
I may be just
a foolish dreamer

01:40:13.674 --> 01:40:17.553
But I don't care

01:40:19.305 --> 01:40:24.727
'Cause I know my happiness
is waiting out there

01:40:25.686 --> 01:40:29.064
Somewhere

01:40:29.732 --> 01:40:34.445
I'm searching
for that silver lining

01:40:35.487 --> 01:40:40.326
Horizons that
I've never seen

01:40:41.285 --> 01:40:45.331
Oh, I'd like to take
just a moment

01:40:45.331 --> 01:40:48.500
And dream my dream

01:40:48.500 --> 01:40:50.669
Oh

01:40:50.669 --> 01:40:56.175
Dream my dream

01:41:00.971 --> 01:41:03.057
Whoa, whoa

01:41:03.057 --> 01:41:05.017
Zoom

01:41:05.017 --> 01:41:09.939
I'd like to fly far away
from here

01:41:09.939 --> 01:41:12.107
Where my mind

01:41:12.107 --> 01:41:16.195
Oh, Lord, is fresh and clear

01:41:16.195 --> 01:41:21.492
And I'd find the love
that I long to see

01:41:21.492 --> 01:41:27.414
Where everybody can be
what they want to be

01:41:30.834 --> 01:41:33.087
