on the break.Copy !req
472. Long pass down the court.Copy !req
473. Hits Wilkes in stride,

491. Lakers out to
an eight-point lead.Copy !req
492. Cheeks to Erving
for the jumper.Copy !req
493. Good!
Johnson answers quicklyCopy !req
494. with an offhand
layup of his own.Copy !req
495. And, friends, this Philly crowd
is getting restless.Copy !req
496. They're itching
in their seats.Copy !req
497. And that's the Doctor
with the cure.Copy !req
498. And here comes
the slug-fest.Copy !req
499. I think I, uh, might go
check on the commissioner.Copy !req
500. Jay? Call New York,Copy !req
501. get O'Brien on a helicopter.Copy !req
502. And make sure
they've got a stageCopy !req
503. in case we're giving
out a trophy.Copy !req
504. Uh, is-is there a trophy?Copy !req
505. I need a quarter.
You got a quarter?Copy !req
506. Erving under the backboard
at the baseline.Copy !req
507. - Shit.
- Unbelievable!Copy !req
508. And a scintillating
start for the Lakers
in that first quarter,Copy !req
509. but the Sixers
are hanging tough.Copy !req
510. This is gonna be
a doozy of a contest,
friends.Copy !req
511. Just fuckin' take it.Copy !req
512. Fucking walk in there.
Keep fucking walking...Copy !req
513. Motherfucker...Copy !req
514. This just...
fuckin' sucks.Copy !req
515. Fuck.Copy !req
516. - What is it? What happened?
What happened?
- Philly tied it up.Copy !req
517. No! Fuck!
God-fuckin'-dammit!Copy !req
518. I knew it! Fuck, I knew it!Copy !req
519. Goddammit!Copy !req
520. Under a minute to go here
in the half. A dead heat.Copy !req
521. Lakers 60, Sixers 58.Copy !req
522. Collins out ahead of
the Lakers with a clear
path at the basket.Copy !req
523. And just like that,
the teams stay knotted up.Copy !req
524. You get to sit down!
And you suck! And you suck!Copy !req
525. - Come here! Come on!
- I'll fuck you up!Copy !req
526. Sit down. Sit down.
Sit down. Sit down.Copy !req
527. Norm from the corner.
No good.Copy !req
528. And it looks right now
like these LakersCopy !req
529. have come back
down to earth.Copy !req
530. The crowd
is right back in it.Copy !req
531. Last seconds of the quarter,
Magic with the steal.Copy !req
532. - Magic from the half-court
at the buzzer.Copy !req
533. In and out!
And that may beCopy !req
534. the only place he's missed
the mark tonight.Copy !req
535. But the lead he has built
has slipped away.Copy !req
536. And you can feel
a frustration creeping in
for these Lakers.Copy !req
537. right out the gate, but the
Sixers absorb the onslaughtCopy !req
538. and come out
tied at the half.Copy !req
539. Well, you have
to ask yourself,Copy !req
540. was that Magic
and the Lakers' best shot?Copy !req
541. They're doing great.Copy !req
542. - Don't listen to that.Copy !req
543. Dr. J is here to proveCopy !req
544. that his reign
is nowhere near over.Copy !req
545. But Magic's
rookie performance
does not disappoint.Copy !req
546. And, oh look,
there's the rookie
owner of the LakersCopy !req
547. taking in his team
with his two sons.Copy !req
548. Both chips off the old block,
I'm sure. I'll—Copy !req
549. If you're looking for the game,
you're in the wrong arena.Copy !req
550. Why aren't you in Philly?Copy !req
551. Uh, someone had to clean out
my grandmother's things, so...Copy !req
552. It's just a lot for my dad.Copy !req
553. Your brothers didn't volunteer?Copy !req
554. No. They'd just, uh,
steal the silverware.Copy !req
555. My grandma was so smart.Copy !req
556. So tough.Copy !req
557. But I think she gave
the best of it away.Copy !req
558. But I don't want to be like her.Copy !req
559. I want to be like you.Copy !req
560. You never will.Copy !req
561. You're going to be him.Copy !req
562. We have the feed up on
satellite if you want.Copy !req
563. Maude made chili.Copy !req
564. - Uh, excuse me?
- What is it?Copy !req
565. Uh, I'm supposed to
give this to, uh, Magic.Copy !req
566. Yeah, what is it?Copy !req
567. It's the vote totals
for Rookie of the Year.Copy !req
568. He asked me to get them.Copy !req
569. He wanted to know
how much he lost by.Copy !req
570. Alright, alright.
I'll tell him myself.Copy !req
571. Alright, gentlemen, listen up.Copy !req
572. One more message from the Bard.Copy !req
573. "If we are marked to die,Copy !req
574. "we are enoughCopy !req
575. "to do our country loss.Copy !req
576. "And if to live...Copy !req
577. "oh, if to live,Copy !req
578. "the fewer men,
the greater share of honor.Copy !req
579. "For he who hathCopy !req
580. "no stomach to this fight,
let him depart!Copy !req
581. "We would not die
in that man's companyCopy !req
582. "that fears his fellowship
to die with us!Copy !req
583. "We few...Copy !req
584. "We happy few...Copy !req
585. We band of brothers..."Copy !req
586. Let's kill those fuckers!Copy !req
587. Alright, here we are,Copy !req
588. beginning of round two,
all knotted up.Copy !req
589. And who is going to make
this game their own?Copy !req
590. We've seen marvels
out of Magic so far,Copy !req
591. but if the Lakers want to beat
this veteran Sixers squad,Copy !req
592. he is going to have to find
a new offensive gear.Copy !req
593. Hey, it's EJ the DJ.
Watch this!Copy !req
594. Chones with the inbound
pass to Magic.Copy !req
595. Magic behind the back.Copy !req

the back of his head tonight.Copy !req
609. Back to Norm, driving,

610. and, oh my!
Time out, Sixers.Copy !req
611. You've seen Magic
at point guard,Copy !req
612. you've seen Magic at forward,

613. Pretty soon, you might
see Magic play a positionCopy !req
614. that nobody's even
invented yet, Keith.Copy !req
615. Magic down the middle,
bounce pass to Jamaal.Copy !req
616. Here's Magic,

618. Magic puts 'em in
the popcorn machine.Copy !req
619. On the block,

and more—Copy !req
621. Magic says, give me that ball!Copy !req
622. Put up, back it in,
by who else?Copy !req
623. Magic Johnson.
Boy, I tell you, this kid
is everywhere, folks.Copy !req
624. Lakers up 10 in the quarter,Copy !req
625. and the game all on the backCopy !req
626. of an astonishing performance
by Magic Johnson.Copy !req
627. - They are one quarter
away from a ring.
- Oh, fuck! Yes!Copy !req
628. But can he keep this up
for 12 more minutesCopy !req
629. without running out of steam?Copy !req
630. Don't! No— Don't say
a fuckin' word, Bill!Copy !req
631. Don't! You know better!
Don't say another fuckin' word!Copy !req
632. - I'm gonna take a fucking...
- The other way!Copy !req
633. - I'm gonna take a walk!
- Yeah, you do that.Copy !req
634. It's working, Bill!Copy !req
635. And at the end of three,
it's Lakers 93...Copy !req
636. Baby, they're gonna win it!Copy !req
637. Do you want something
from the kitchen?Copy !req
638. I'm having champagne.Copy !req
639. Not only without their big man
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar,Copy !req
640. but also without power forward
Spencer Haywood,Copy !req
641. who was shouldering
a lot of the weight down there
in the post for this team.Copy !req
642. The Lakers
are just 12 minutesCopy !req
643. and one quarter of basketball

644. their first championship
in eight years.Copy !req
645. - One, two, three...

Magic on that play?Copy !req
652. Erving asking
for the ball again,Copy !req
653. this time in the corner.Copy !req
654. D up! D up!Copy !req
655. Who peels Magic off
like a banana!Copy !req
656. And just like that,
the Sixers
cut this lead in half.Copy !req
657. And Magic Johnson
is looking winded, friends,Copy !req
658. like the Doctor may have
found a cure for him.Copy !req
659. Sixers have no quit in them,
I'll tell you that right now.Copy !req
660. Come on, keep
a foot on their throats.Copy !req
661. Don't let these guys back in it.Copy !req
662. Oh! And Erving
with a clean pickCopy !req
663. leaving Magic in the dust.Copy !req
664. And if you're Paul Westhead,Copy !req
665. this is exactly what
you were afraid of.Copy !req
666. He's been out there
in high gear for
every minute of this game.Copy !req
667. And even at the ripe old age
of 20, that will take a toll.Copy !req
668. Nixon trying to
muster up some offenseCopy !req
669. for the struggling Lakers.

670. Jones with the rebound.Copy !req

672. Cheeks running the break.Copy !req
673. - To Erving... Good!Copy !req

cut this deficit to one.Copy !req
675. I'll tell ya, these
Lakers are startingCopy !req
676. to look like a car
without an engine.Copy !req
677. Just over three minutes
and 30 seconds to go
in this game.Copy !req
678. Lakers clinging to
a three-point advantage,Copy !req
679. Magic Johnson has
been carrying the team,Copy !req
680. but now he's looking like it,
friends, walking this ballCopy !req
681. up the court
just to get some air.Copy !req
682. And he walks
right into a trap!Copy !req
683. Dawkins, Hollins,
Cheeks surrounding him.Copy !req
684. Magic throws the ball away...Copy !req
685. - Goddammit!
- right into the hands
of Julius Erving!Copy !req
686. And just like that, the Sixers
trail by only one point.Copy !req
687. - God, they're—
- The crowd
is going wildCopy !req
688. and now, they can taste it.Copy !req
689. Magic Johnson looking tired,Copy !req
690. looking absolutely exhausted
out there, and frustrated.Copy !req
691. - Let's just hope not beaten.
Time out, Lakers!Copy !req
692. Did you call that time out?Copy !req
693. No. He did.Copy !req
694. Time out, Lakers.Copy !req
695. - Sorry, I know.

700. You've been doin'
everything out here,Copy !req
701. but we got you.Copy !req
702. I got you.Copy !req
703. Let's go and win
this fucking game.Copy !req
704. - Okay? Yeah? Alright.
- Yeah.Copy !req
705. Let's go. Let's take it home.Copy !req
706. Magic has played
every minute here tonight,Copy !req
707. and he looks out of gas.Copy !req
708. We've been
wondering all yearCopy !req
709. when this kid was
gonna hit the wall.
This may be it.Copy !req
710. It's looking more and more
like it's gonna takeCopy !req
711. - a lot more than magic.
- You can say that—Copy !req
712. And I'll tell ya,Copy !req
713. these guys look like
they've been in a war,Copy !req
714. the two of them.
This whole team is exhausted.Copy !req
715. Nixon...
He's got stones for legs,Copy !req
716. and Nixon bringing him
over back to the bench,Copy !req
717. and he is tired,
I'll tell you.Copy !req
718. Magic has had
an amazing night,Copy !req
719. spectacular performance,Copy !req
720. but when push comes to shovesCopy !req
721. in these
high-pressure situations,Copy !req
722. you want experience
driving the teamCopy !req
723. when there's
a championship at stake.Copy !req
724. You cannot hear yourself
think in this arena.Copy !req
725. I bet they can hear this
crowd way back in LA.Copy !req
726. I'll tell ya,
if Kareem can't come backCopy !req
727. for that game seven,Copy !req
728. this could be the Lakers'
last best chance.Copy !req
729. Breathe! Breathe!
I know that we are tired!Copy !req
730. But this is what we trained for!Copy !req
731. McKinney miles, gentlemen!Copy !req
732. Okay? Two minutes!Copy !req
733. Two minutes to glory!Copy !req
734. We are gonna win this thing!Copy !req
735. We're gonna win it! Okay?
You believe that! Believe it!Copy !req
