8. Yeah. Have you seen him?Copy !req
9. - Hm, no.
- I called his house.Copy !req

turns into a masterCopy !req
33. when he comes of age.Copy !req
34. So, we're too old
to share an office?Copy !req
35. Not if you ask Hamlet. See,Copy !req
36. you got the whole of Denmark

But, you know what?Copy !req
38. He didn't want it.Copy !req
39. - He wasn't built for it.
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
40. I think that I spent, uh...Copy !req
41. a very long time
feeling like a failureCopy !req
42. because the best thing
that I know how to doCopy !req
43. is help another guy be great.Copy !req
44. But what I'm starting to realizeCopy !req
45. is that maybe...Copy !req
46. 'tis better be a noble prince
than hapless king?Copy !req
47. Maybe I ought to read
more Shakespeare.Copy !req
48. Always.Copy !req
49. But that was

But, my coach and me,Copy !req
106. my partner now,
we figured out a nifty trick.Copy !req
107. If we could shave just one ounceCopy !req
108. off of our shoes, it made us
55 pounds lighter every mile.Copy !req
109. You run an average
of three miles a game.Copy !req

you would be without
any extra weight.Copy !req

147. just give me
the information, please.Copy !req
148. Well, we were able
to dress his wounds,Copy !req
149. but the inflammation in his
brain is worrisome. Are...Copy !req
150. Are you authorized
to make decisions?Copy !req
151. - We may need to
discuss goals of care.
- Okay.Copy !req
152. My goal is to get him up
and walking out of hereCopy !req
153. - as good as new, right?
- Of course.Copy !req
154. That's our north star,Copy !req
155. but an injury severe as this,Copy !req
156. sometimes, the discussion
moves to quality of life.Copy !req
157. Quality of life?
He's head coach of the Lakers.Copy !req
158. He's living his dr—
All he did was take a tumbleCopy !req
159. - off of a goddamn bike!
- The trauma he's endured—Copy !req
160. It's not gonna happen!
If that's your attitude,Copy !req
161. we're going to need
another doctor. Just...Copy !req
162. That's Jack McKinney.
He's my best friend. So,Copy !req
163. what I need to hear from youCopy !req
164. is what you're gonna do
to fix him upCopy !req
165. because we have
a fucking game tomorrow!Copy !req
166. Well, well, well.Copy !req
167. - What do we have here?
- It's from the signore.Copy !req
168. It's on me, pal.Copy !req
169. Jack. You shouldn't have!Copy !req
170. I had to comp
his season tickets
to get him to do that.Copy !req
171. He's our biggest fan.
It's crazy.Copy !req
172. We got two seats
right next to him.Copy !req
173. Reserved for Great Western Bank.Copy !req
174. Hot damn!
The wife is gonna plotz.Copy !req
175. You know, Dr. Buss put
chairs right on the floorCopy !req
176. - because it's great
for television.Copy !req
177. Yeah. We don't pick
that up in Sacramento.Copy !req
178. All they pick up in Sacramento
is the clap,Copy !req
179. which, incidentally, is
exactly how this is spreading.Copy !req
180. We're 13 games in.Copy !req
181. We got lightning in a bottle.Copy !req
182. We got a genius coach,
young phenom,Copy !req
183. coupled with the greatest
player in the league,Copy !req
184. right here,
smack dab in the heartCopy !req
185. of the entertainment
capital of the world.Copy !req
186. Mr. Buss,Copy !req
187. we are a banking institution,Copy !req
188. and your loan
matures tomorrow.Copy !req
189. Though I presume from your
request to meet that we're hereCopy !req
190. to talk about a payment plan.Copy !req
191. You're darn tootin'.
Frank, tell him our plan.Copy !req
192. We don't plan to pay.Copy !req
193. We're giving you an opportunity.Copy !req
194. The Lakers are the team
of the 1980s,Copy !req
195. and the Great Western Bank can
be the official banking partnerCopy !req
196. of the Los Angeles Lakers.Copy !req
197. But we're gonna need
a continuationCopy !req
198. of the current loan through
June to the end of the season,Copy !req
199. plus a fresh line of credit,Copy !req
200. so we can keep investing
in the business.Copy !req
201. Together.Copy !req
202. And if we demand our money now?Copy !req
203. Well then, Mariani,
Buss, and AssociatesCopy !req
204. is going to file for bankruptcy.Copy !req
205. And you can take the two of us
for everything we got.Copy !req
206. Which, right now, is...Copy !req
207. I don't know, Frank,
what do we got?Copy !req
208. - $72.
- Oh,Copy !req
209. and this fine bottle of
bubbly. Don't forget that.Copy !req
210. And, of course, the team.
The team is worth plenty.Copy !req
211. N... ope!Copy !req
212. My mother is a genius,
by the way.Copy !req
213. My ex-wife wanted
something gold,Copy !req
214. so I gave her the team.Copy !req
215. All that's in her name now.Copy !req
216. So, you can shake us down
and come up with pocket lint,Copy !req
217. or you can dig down deepCopy !req
218. into those fancy suits you got,Copy !req
219. try to find the ballsCopy !req
220. to stay in business
with the Lakers.Copy !req
221. And then, my friends,Copy !req
222. that bank is gonna raise
a statue of you twoCopy !req
223. right there in downtown
Sacramento someday.
Trust me.Copy !req
224. Listen, I'd love
to stay and chitchat,Copy !req
225. but I have a very horny
22-year-old upstairsCopy !req
226. just waiting for me. So,Copy !req
227. take our projections,
spend the day with them,Copy !req
228. and then come to
the club tonight
and tell us we got a deal.Copy !req
229. The Jacksons are gonna
pack that place.Copy !req
230. But don't worry.
We got your comp tickets.Copy !req
231. Listen,Copy !req
232. it's clear skies
from here on out.Copy !req
233. Pleasure doing business
with you. Frank.Copy !req
234. Oh, boy, oh boy, oh boy.Copy !req
235. You think
they're gonna go for it?Copy !req
236. Of course, they're
gonna go for it.Copy !req
237. They'd be fools not to.
We got 'em by
the short and curlies.Copy !req
238. - Hello, gentlemen.
- Claire?Copy !req
239. - What are you doing here?
- I'm waiting for you.Copy !req
240. On my day off.Copy !req
241. Was supposed to be at
the zoo with my grandson,Copy !req
242. - but there's a problem
with food and beverage.
- What's that?Copy !req
243. - There isn't any.
- Fuck.Copy !req
244. He hears me on the phone.
Kid's like a parrot.Copy !req
245. The deliveries were never made
because your bookkeeperCopy !req
246. sent bad checks
to all my vendors.Copy !req
247. - None of the vendors
have been paid?
- No.Copy !req
248. Th-th—
This is an old account.Copy !req
249. She's an old bookkeeper.Copy !req
250. I was telling Earvin
that it is some luckCopy !req
251. that you're in town.
You know, your head

252. These shoe companies
are comin' at himCopy !req
253. pretty hard for
an endorsement deal.Copy !req
254. I can imagine.
Promise you the world.Copy !req
255. The question is,
will they deliver?Copy !req
256. Yeah.Copy !req
257. Whole lot of numbers, but...Copy !req
258. Have you been talking to anybody
else about this? A professional?Copy !req
259. Um, Pops got Mr. Bowman
outta D-Town.Copy !req
260. He's a fine attorney
for a Michigan attorney.Copy !req
261. And for this?Copy !req
262. Don't know his dick
from a doorknob.Copy !req
263. Guess you could say
the same thing about me, too.Copy !req
264. I wouldn't.Copy !req
265. Look ...Copy !req
266. Let me pose a questionCopy !req
267. that I pose to all
my clients, okay?Copy !req
268. Five years, 10 years, 50.Copy !req
269. What do you want
out of your future?Copy !req
270. Um...Copy !req
271. everything.Copy !req
272. Okay. That's big business.Copy !req
273. Something for everybody.Copy !req
274. Kinda like Coca-Cola.Copy !req
275. That's right! Yeah! Just—Copy !req
276. That's exactly what
I'm talking about!Copy !req
277. Good, so now we know what
we building here, right?Copy !req
278. - Our promised land.
- Right.Copy !req
279. We need our 10 Commandments.Copy !req
280. Pitfalls to avoid.Copy !req
281. Choices that
Earvin might makeCopy !req
282. that would be bad
for Magic Johnson.Copy !req
283. You ain't gotta worry
about that with me.Copy !req
284. I don't drink none,Copy !req
285. and I don't touch
that narcotic either.Copy !req
286. - Some Coca-Cola for you.Copy !req
287. And women?Copy !req
288. You gotta be smarter.Copy !req
289. Quieter.Copy !req
290. Keep everybody happy.Copy !req
291. - Want another cup, Pops?
- Better not, baby girl.Copy !req
292. The jet-lag is
beating me down. So,Copy !req
293. why don't I take a closer
look at these, Earvin?Copy !req
294. You know, we could talk
at the game tomorrow.Copy !req
295. Cindy here has promised me

308. - Smell what!
- She doesn't know
the smell of death.Copy !req
309. - I do. Don't close that door!Copy !req
310. There's something
rotting in the walls!Copy !req
311. You put me in here with vermin!Copy !req
312. - No! Leave that open!

314. Nonsense!
Gerald, get all this down!Copy !req
315. - It's up here! I know it!

316. and look at these?Copy !req
317. You paid all the vendorsCopy !req
318. with checks from Crocker!Copy !req
319. Ma, we left Crocker
five years ago!Copy !req
320. You're the one who
closed the account!Copy !req
321. Oh, well, there we have it.
Blame it on me. That's rich.Copy !req
322. We'll just write new checks.
We'll sort all of this out.Copy !req
323. - What is this?
- What?Copy !req
324. This.Copy !req
325. Mom, this is the transfer
of ownership paperwork.Copy !req
326. They were supposed to be filed
with the state a month ago, Ma.Copy !req
327. I know that.Copy !req
328. Then what is it doing
in my fucking hand?Copy !req
329. The loan is due tomorrow!Copy !req
330. And now, these fucking bankers
have me over a barrel,Copy !req
331. and they're gonna take it all!Copy !req
332. No, I don't understand!
I don't understand.Copy !req
333. - I don't understand
what he's saying!Copy !req
334. - You're okay.Copy !req
335. - Hello?Copy !req
336. Hey, Bill.Copy !req
337. - I know.Copy !req
338. What?Copy !req
339. Bill, what hospital are you at?Copy !req
340. I'm coming. I'm coming. Okay.
Clean this place upCopy !req
341. and take care of her.
I have somewhere to be.Copy !req
342. - It's gonna be okay.Copy !req
343. - Dr. Buss.
- Hey, Bill. There you are.Copy !req
344. - So?
- He's still under the knife.Copy !req
345. Shit.Copy !req
346. - How long has he been in there?
- I don't know.Copy !req
347. He came in as a John Doe.
Cranny found him here.Copy !req
348. The fuck was
he doing on a bike, Bill?Copy !req
349. It clears his head.
It clears—Copy !req
350. Gentlemen.Copy !req
351. Jack is just out of surgery.Copy !req
352. - Bob Kerlan, team physician.
- Hey, Bob.Copy !req
353. Sorry to meet under
these circumstances.Copy !req
354. He's out of surgery? Sorry.
He's, uh, he's awake?Copy !req
355. Oh, I certainly hope not.Copy !req
356. The top of his skull
is sitting in a freezer.Copy !req
357. Jesus fucking Christ.Copy !req
358. - Fuck.
- Well, just temporarily.Copy !req
359. They'll pop it back on
once the swellingCopy !req
360. in his brain goes down.Copy !req
361. - Is he gonna make it?
- You said it was temporary.Copy !req
362. Well, everything is,
but the next few hours
will be crucial.Copy !req
363. I'll be on call. Bill.Copy !req
364. Bob.Copy !req
365. - I should call them the league,
talk about postponing—
- No!Copy !req
366. Do not call anybody.Copy !req
367. - What do we tell the press?
- Nothing.Copy !req
368. - We don't need
anybody panicking.
- But what happensCopy !req
369. - when Jack's not in
the locker room tomorrow?
- Bill...Copy !req
370. you tell them he fell off
his fucking bike.Copy !req
371. 'Cause that's
the truth, isn't it?Copy !req
372. - Yeah.
- Alright. So, listen to me.Copy !req
373. This is the exact words
you're gonna use.Copy !req
374. "We are erring on
the side of caution."Copy !req
375. You tell the same thing
to the players.Copy !req
376. Pete, you're coaching
the game tomorrow.Copy !req
377. - Paul.
- Huh?Copy !req
378. Um, wrong apostle.
Um, you said Pete, my name—Copy !req
379. Hey, hey. Get your
head outta your ass.Copy !req
380. - Can you coach
the goddamn game or not?
- No.Copy !req
381. Yes. Sure.Copy !req
382. Look, I do the scouting,
I do the prep work anyway,Copy !req
383. so I can probably
coach one game.Copy !req
384. Dr. Buss,
we should discuss this.Copy !req
385. Don't lose.Copy !req
386. Just take it easy.Copy !req
387. Easy?Copy !req
388. I'm fucking cursed.Copy !req
389. Yeah, but nobody knows.Copy !req
390. - Not yet!
- Right!Copy !req
391. So, by the time the suits from
the bank find out about this,Copy !req
392. we're gonna have it signed,
sealed, delivered, right?Copy !req
393. Unless they walk in here nowCopy !req
394. - and see you l-like this.
- Got a bad feeling, Frank.Copy !req

535. - Cindy...

554. At 30%.Copy !req
555. That's a million bucks in vig.Copy !req
556. Mm, yeah, which is why
if you're the businessmanCopy !req
557. that you say you are,
then you'll turn us down,Copy !req
558. and we'll see you in
bankruptcy.Copy !req
559. I'll tell you what.Copy !req
560. You make it June,
and we got a deal.Copy !req
561. Can I ask why?Copy !req
562. Because in May,Copy !req
563. we're gonna win
the Championship.Copy !req
564. Mm...Copy !req
565. And then, I'm gonna need
a couple weeks' vacationCopy !req
566. before I take a flight
to Sacramento,Copy !req
567. walk into your office,Copy !req
568. and make you beg
to keep our business.Copy !req
569. Well...Copy !req
570. I hope you keep winning.Copy !req

572. - Come on.
- Thank you, Wes.Copy !req
573. You see? Not a problem.Copy !req
574. What the fuck
is this clown doing?Copy !req
575. Oh, you got to be—
Come on, you got me!Copy !req
576. The buzzards catch you out here
with that sad sack lookCopy !req
577. on your fuckin' face,
you'll be in tomorrow's paper.Copy !req
578. - It was kind of a tough night.
- Yeah, well,Copy !req
579. I hate to break it to you, but
there's a shit storm blowing in.Copy !req
580. Bill's asked me
to walk you through it.Copy !req
581. Fuckin' hurry up!
You're not a duck! Come on.Copy !req
582. - Put this on.
That's Missoni.
- Alright.Copy !req
583. Fuck, don't stretch it.
It's cashmere. Come on—Copy !req
584. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Jerry, the hounds are waiting.Copy !req
585. It's a stakeout.Copy !req
586. You always meet the buzzards
on your own terms.Copy !req
587. Here we go.
The important thing is
to project a sense of calm.Copy !req
588. You're not just
talking to the media.Copy !req
589. You're talking to the team,
plus every other motherfuckingCopy !req
590. up-and-comer
in the league.Copy !req
591. They're smelling blood,
and we're the meat.Copy !req
592. Well, they don't know
Jack McKinney.Copy !req
593. He's gonna be up and yelling
at that radio by halftime.Copy !req
594. You got your fucking
degree from where, Doc?Copy !req
595. - Huh? Oh, hang on.
- Huh?Copy !req
596. "Assistant coach
promises quick return."Copy !req
597. Boom! There's your headline!Copy !req
598. And then tomorrow, when
he's not there, what then?Copy !req
599. Boom! Panic! Chaos!Copy !req
600. Then buzzards are fucking you
in your fat little ass!Copy !req
601. - I don't wanna be
buzzard-fucked.
- No!Copy !req
602. Don't oversell.Copy !req
603. - But what am I supposed to say?
- As little as possible.Copy !req
604. Jack is in the best
of hands, okay?Copy !req
605. Jack is on the mend,
and in the meantime,Copy !req
606. I'm holding down the fort,Copy !req
607. confident that the team
is behind the both of us,Copy !req
608. 110%. Yeah, just like that.Copy !req
609. - Okay.
- You want to do it?Copy !req
610. Fuck no!
You out of your fucking...Copy !req
611. No, just look, you know...Copy !req
612. Take it easy, okay?Copy !req
613. Alright? You're a natural.Copy !req
614. And if the press happen
to hang you up on anything,
just, well,Copy !req
615. go to your comfort zone.Copy !req
616. What's that?Copy !req
617. Jack McKinney is on the mend.Copy !req
618. I'm holding down the fort,Copy !req
619. and I know that
the franchise is behind us all.Copy !req
620. - Both of us...Copy !req
621. Franchise is behind
us both 100%.Copy !req
622. So, there's nothing
to the reports that
he's in a coma?Copy !req
623. - How about these rumors that
Jack's fighting for his life?
- Rumors?Copy !req
624. You know what? I'm not gonna
get caught up in rumors.Copy !req
625. We're going to focus
on the task ahead.Copy !req
626. And for me right now,
the task aheadCopy !req
627. well, it's Denver.Copy !req
628. And, uh, Skywalker Thompson.Copy !req
629. - He went on a tear
last night in Utah.Copy !req
630. Yeah, he sure did.Copy !req
631. I think that's probably why, uh,Copy !req
632. that's probably why
Jack McKinney is playing hookyCopy !req
633. because, uh, he wants
to avoid a repeat.Copy !req
634. So, you and Jack talked
about the Utah game?Copy !req
635. - Does that mean he's conscious?
- That's after the accident?Copy !req
636. - What are you not telling us?
- I'm not saying—Copy !req
637. Jack McKinney is on the mend.Copy !req
638. - What'd you tell him to say?
- I didn't tell him to say shit.Copy !req
639. - Is he in critical condition?
- Paul, you gotta
give us something.Copy !req
640. Is he in a vegetable
state or what?Copy !req
641. I...Copy !req
642. - What do we tell the fans?
- Just tell them...Copy !req
643. "If it be now,Copy !req
644. "'tis not to come.Copy !req
645. "If it be not to comeCopy !req
646. "it will be now.Copy !req
647. "If it not be now,Copy !req
648. yet it will come."Copy !req
649. - Come on, Paul.Copy !req
650. "The readiness...Copy !req
651. is all."Copy !req
652. - Get up there.
Get him off the stage now.
- Thank you.Copy !req
653. Okay! Okay!Copy !req
654. We'll see you all at
the game tonight, huh?Copy !req
655. What the fuck was that?Copy !req
656. - My comfort zone.
- Will he be able to coach again?Copy !req
657. - That's it, folks, thank you.
- Wow...Copy !req
658. Wise words from
Jack McKinney's substitute.Copy !req
659. This time last year,
he was teaching Shakespeare.Copy !req
660. - Tonight, he steps in as—
- Oh, that oughta keep
'em chasing their tails.Copy !req
661. Yeah, well, I wish they
were the only ones.Copy !req
662. I spent all nightCopy !req
663. trying to decipherCopy !req
664. what the hunting pattern
of the Bengal tigerCopy !req
665. has to do with keeping
Thompson out of the lane.Copy !req
666. - Well, you stick one there,
he'll probably avoid it.Copy !req
667. Thanks.Copy !req
668. This is Jack shit.
Alright? It's not for you.Copy !req
669. - Come on! Goddammit.
- Let it go.Copy !req
670. Let it go. What would you do?Copy !req
671. - What I would do...
- Your show.Copy !req
672. If it was me, I would—
I would do something
off the wall.Copy !req
673. - I would— I would start Cooper.
- Great.Copy !req
674. No, you know what?
I would play it safe,Copy !req
675. and I would stick with Haywood.Copy !req
676. Alright.Copy !req
677. No, Cooper.Copy !req
678. Or Haywood?Copy !req
679. That's a good idea.Copy !req
680. Fuck!Copy !req
681. You want the job?Copy !req
682. You know what you
could do with Thompson?Copy !req
683. Drive him baseline to his
weak hand for the trap.Copy !req
684. Haywood and Cooper double-team.Copy !req
685. He's weaker when
he moves to the left,Copy !req
686. so you force him that way.Copy !req
687. Overplay the passing lanes.Copy !req
688. You know what...
You know what you
could do with Thompson?Copy !req
689. The team is here.Copy !req
690. Okay.Copy !req
691. Oh...Copy !req
692. - I'm going to take Cran home.
- Yeah.Copy !req
693. Yeah, she—
She definitely needs a break.Copy !req
694. - You do, too.
- Yeah.Copy !req
695. Nothing good can come
from sitting here,Copy !req
696. watching him like this.Copy !req
697. "I make as much use of it
as many a man doth...Copy !req
698. a memento mori."Copy !req
699. It's a Death's Head.Copy !req
700. Elizabethans used to
put it everywhereCopy !req
701. with that inscription.
Memento mori.
"Remember...Copy !req
702. you will die."Copy !req
703. Shakespeare sealed
the words in waxCopy !req
704. on everything he wrote
after his son died.Copy !req
705. No, there's something
beautiful in that.Copy !req
706. Life is fleeting,
so make every moment count.Copy !req
707. It meant the opposite.Copy !req
708. Life is meaningless.Copy !req
709. All earthly things are vanity.Copy !req
710. Well, that's less cheerful.Copy !req
711. I, uh...Copy !req
712. I can't believe I have
to coach this game.Copy !req
713. You can do it.Copy !req
714. You shakin' like a flea-bit dog.Copy !req
715. It's all over.Copy !req
716. Man, you don't know that.
Coach could pull through.Copy !req
717. No, not-not Coach.Copy !req
718. It's just...Copy !req
719. Me, man.
Westhead ain't no fan.Copy !req
720. What makes you say that?Copy !req
721. I seen it in camp.
The way he was looking at me,Copy !req
722. like I was a loose thread
on a sweater.Copy !req
723. I bet you he can't
wait to cut me off.Copy !req
724. Is that right?Copy !req
725. Hm. Brother,Copy !req
726. I ain't known you but a minute,
but what I can sayCopy !req
727. is you are the nervousest catCopy !req
728. in a building full
of people dying.Copy !req
729. Didn't nobody end up
in the NBA by accident.Copy !req
730. I don't know, Spence.
Maybe I'm the first.Copy !req
731. No, you're not.
You supposed to be here.
You understand?Copy !req
732. McKinney or no McKinney.Copy !req
733. Coach is just a coach.Copy !req
734. All the damn talent you got?Copy !req
735. Any fool could see it!
Even Westhead!Copy !req
736. Hey. Uh...Copy !req
737. Wanna thank you all
for coming. Um...Copy !req
738. I know that it's going
to mean a lot to Jack.Copy !req
739. How is he?Copy !req
740. He's better. He's better.
Thank you.Copy !req
741. Um, he's probably
not well enough for visitorsCopy !req
742. just yet.
So, let's keep him
in our thoughtsCopy !req
743. and, uh, I'll see you
at the game.Copy !req
744. Oh...Copy !req
745. I-I'm sorry. I hope I'm not,
uh, interrupting.Copy !req
746. These are from Magic.Copy !req
747. He is so sorry
that he couldn't be here,Copy !req
748. but he just wanted to make sureCopy !req
749. that Coach McKinney knowsCopy !req
750. how much he means to us.Copy !req
751. So, you know, there's some
eucalyptus in there, so...Copy !req
752. that's good
for his breathing.Copy !req
753. I think you're making
a wise choice.Copy !req
754. So what I'm supposed to say
to the ones I ain't going with?Copy !req
755. Nothing.Copy !req
756. You can't muddy up that
million-dollar smileCopy !req
757. - delivering bad news.
- Alright.Copy !req
758. - Right on!
- That can be my job.Copy !req
759. Gentlemen! Welcome.Copy !req
760. Come on in! Son,Copy !req
761. on behalf of Converse,Copy !req
762. we are just thrilled to
welcome you into our stable.Copy !req
763. I think we are gonna
make a lot of hay.Copy !req
764. Before we put pen to paper,Copy !req
765. I took the liberty
of making some adjustments.Copy !req
766. For starters, we've learned
that Larry Bird has agreedCopy !req
767. to $90,000, and we believeCopy !req
768. we should command 100.Copy !req
769. - Well, that's quite an ask.
- Well...Copy !req
770. my man is quite an athlete.Copy !req
771. Well, you drive
a hard bargain,Copy !req
772. but you got
yourself a deal.Copy !req
773. That's what I'm talkin' about!Copy !req
774. - Yeah.
- Some notes.Copy !req
775. So, I was thinking...Copy !req
776. We put my name
right there on the shoe.Copy !req
777. I'm thinking...Copy !req
778. "The Magic."Copy !req
779. I see it. Look, "The Magic."Copy !req
780. Ain't no one else done that!Copy !req
781. Well, that's an idea!Copy !req
782. We'll run it up the flagpole
back at corporate.Copy !req
783. But first, let's get you
on the dotted line.Copy !req
784. To Magic.Copy !req
785. You won't regret it.Copy !req
786. He regrets it.Copy !req
787. My father Lydus was a genius.Copy !req
788. He had a head for numbers.Copy !req
789. I think he liked numbers
more than he liked people,Copy !req
790. far as I can tell.Copy !req
791. Definitely liked numbers
more than he liked me.Copy !req
792. Left us high and dry
when I was born.Copy !req
793. Mom was 19.Copy !req
794. No high school education.Copy !req
795. Now, she's got
this kid to raise.Copy !req
796. Middle of the fucking Dust Bowl.Copy !req
797. But, she got us here.Copy !req
798. She got us here.Copy !req
799. - That's one tough broad.
- Dr. Buss?Copy !req
800. Hey.Copy !req
801. How's she doin'?Copy !req
802. Exhausted, but coherent.Copy !req
803. There's no outward
sign of trauma.Copy !req
804. Oh, good. Good.
Yeah. Right?Copy !req
805. Yeah...Copy !req
806. I figured she just
forgot to eat.Copy !req
807. - Could be.Copy !req
808. Why don't you bring her by
for a full workup?Copy !req
809. In the meantime,Copy !req

816. I always wanted to
go out with a bang.Copy !req
817. Instead, I seem to be rotting.Copy !req
818. No. Bullshit.Copy !req
819. Alcohol is a preservative.Copy !req
820. Well, at least
I taught you to laugh.Copy !req
821. I know I fucked up
everything else.Copy !req
822. Come on.Copy !req
823. Don't talk like that.Copy !req
824. You got me where I am today.Copy !req
825. Hm...Copy !req
826. Sorry, I'll wait outside.Copy !req
827. It's my fault.Copy !req
828. Just a spell.Copy !req
829. No, it wasn't the first time.Copy !req
830. Opening night, she didn't
know what day it was.Copy !req
831. She was out of it.Copy !req
832. I should've told you,
but I didn't want to ruin
your big day.Copy !req
833. Jeanie.Copy !req
834. Get it together.Copy !req
835. - She's gonna be okay.Copy !req
836. What's goin' on, Coach?Copy !req
837. Game day. Hey.Copy !req
838. Okay.Copy !req
839. Gentlemen...Copy !req
840. I know that it's hard right now.Copy !req
841. I know that
our hearts are heavy.Copy !req
842. But, we got a job to do.Copy !req
843. And there is nothing—
There is nothing!Copy !req
844. That Jack McKinney
would want more than a win.Copy !req
845. - That's right.
- Yep!Copy !req
846. So, let's take a minute.
Let's take a minute.Copy !req
847. "Give sorrow words.Copy !req
848. "The grief that does not speak,Copy !req
849. whispers the o'erfraught heart
and bids it break."Copy !req
850. Hm?Copy !req
851. So, Coach dead?Copy !req
852. No. No, no, no.Copy !req

in conditioning.Copy !req
856. - Who you talking about?
- Bunny is your man.Copy !req
857. - You crazy.
- Cooper.Copy !req
858. You're starting at four.Copy !req
859. - Jim, you're next
in the rotation.
- What?Copy !req
860. Where that put me, Coach?Copy !req
861. It puts you on the bench.Copy !req
862. - Whoa.

866. Jack on three! One, two, three.Copy !req
867. Jack!Copy !req
868. - Hey. Hey, Paul?Copy !req
869. I can take Thompson. Whoo!Copy !req
870. Is there a problem?Copy !req
871. Well, I'm not sure if you heard
what I said back at the hospitalCopy !req
872. between me and the young blood,Copy !req
873. but if it's putting us
off on the wrong foot...Copy !req
874. Oh...Copy !req
875. No, no. This is a—
This is a basketball decision.Copy !req
876. It's nothing personal.Copy !req
877. Okay?Copy !req
878. Hey, uh, Young Buck?Copy !req
879. You gonna play this one,
or you gonna let your girl
do it for you?Copy !req
880. Girl?Copy !req
881. You gonna send your squeeze
to the hospitalCopy !req
882. and think we ain't gonna say?Copy !req
883. Fine ol' redbone, too.Copy !req
884. You lucky I ain't holler at her.Copy !req
885. - Well,
she sat next to me, so...
- Cindy?Copy !req
886. I ain't even know
she went to the hospital.Copy !req
887. With 10 funerals of flowers.Copy !req
888. Rip Van Winkle ever wake up,Copy !req
889. - he gonna think
he in a garden.Copy !req
890. Nice touch, Young Blood.Copy !req
891. Not as nice as showing up

894. Hey, babe.Copy !req
895. Hey.Copy !req

But, me and you?Copy !req
934. Well, that's another
thing now, isn't it?Copy !req
935. - Business.
- That it is.Copy !req
936. And I don't see why
the end of one relationshipCopy !req
937. should sacrifice the other.Copy !req
938. Right on.Copy !req
939. Think you could tell her for me?Copy !req
940. Hey, like you said.Copy !req
941. Magic ain't supposed to be
the one to give 'em bad news.Copy !req
942. I'll let her down light.Copy !req
943. Yeah, those is the Lakers,
not the Fakers.Copy !req
944. Hey, Black man, Black man,Copy !req
945. - Black man.
- Spencer, my main man.Copy !req
946. - Oh man.
- I know you've been living
like a saint these days,Copy !req
947. but if you wanna
celebrate after the game,Copy !req
948. party's at my place
in the hills.Copy !req
949. Come on up, man.
We got it all.Copy !req
950. Man, we got white bitches,
7-Up, and cocaine.Copy !req
951. - Know what I mean?
Know what I mean, Jack?
- Maybe so.Copy !req
952. Introducing your
Los Angeles Lakers!Copy !req
953. - Hey, Bill.
- Jerry.Copy !req
954. Some fuckin' day, huh?Copy !req
955. Yes, sir.Copy !req
956. Chick Hearn
along with Pat RileyCopy !req
957. here for another game
of Lakers basketball.Copy !req
958. Tonight, the team
will not be joined by
head coach Jack McKinney.Copy !req
959. Our prayers are with him.
But, let's hope the LakersCopy !req
960. won't be needing
any of their own.Copy !req
961. The man filling in for him
on the sidelinesCopy !req
962. will be his assistant.
First name Paul,Copy !req
963. last name Westhead.Copy !req
964. A few months ago, this guy
was teaching ShakespeareCopy !req
965. at La Salle College
in Philadelphia.Copy !req
966. Now here he is, coaching
one of the NBA's marquee teamsCopy !req
967. and trying to
hold down the fort for
his friend and mentor,Copy !req
968. who, we are told,
is on the mend.Copy !req
969. - Well, this one's
for you, Jack.Copy !req
970. Okay, now both teams
in the center circle.Copy !req
971. Here's the tip
controlled by Kareem
and this contest is underway.Copy !req
972. Magic brings the ball
down the floor.Copy !req
973. Jack?Copy !req
974. Hey. Jack?Copy !req
975. No, Jack.Copy !req
976. Help! Jack!Copy !req
977. Wake up.Copy !req
978. Jack!Copy !req
979. Somebody come help us!
Please! Nurse!Copy !req
980. Jack! Help us! Jack!Copy !req
981. You know what you
could do with Thompson?Copy !req
982. Drive him baseline to
his weak hand for the trap.Copy !req
983. Haywood and Cooper double-team.Copy !req
984. He's weaker when
he goes to the left,Copy !req
985. so you force him that way.Copy !req
986. You overplay the passing lanes,Copy !req
987. beat 'em on the turnovers.Copy !req
988. Of course, he won't pass
if Issel's camped outCopy !req
989. under the bucket
for the put-back,
so you go big!Copy !req
990. You put a big man on his ass!Copy !req
991. That's why we got Haywood!Copy !req
992. So... box out Issel.Copy !req
993. Thompson can't beat us himself.Copy !req
994. - Like that, see?
- What difference
would that make?Copy !req
995. You see?Copy !req
996. I'd rather talk about Denver.Copy !req
997. - Paul, Paul!
He's asking for you.
- Okay, okay, okay!Copy !req
998. Jack!Copy !req
999. Hey. Hi.Copy !req
1000. Go big...Copy !req
1001. Sorry, what, Jack?Copy !req
1002. Go big...Copy !req
1003. Go big against...Copy !req
1004. against Thompson.Copy !req
1005. Denver, go big.Copy !req
1006. We, we already
played them, Jack.Copy !req
1007. Denver was two weeks ago.Copy !req
1008. Fuck my dick.Copy !req
1009. Fuck... I came back.Copy !req
1010. - I know, I know...
- I came back.Copy !req
1011. I know... I know...Copy !req
1012. Do you guys wanna sign up?Copy !req
1013. I think so, when they
migrated to Detroit.Copy !req
1014. - Ms. Kelly!Copy !req
1015. Dr. Day?Copy !req
1016. - What's this?
- Tickets.Copy !req
1017. The Lakers are
coming to Detroit,Copy !req
1018. and Earvin would
love to have you.Copy !req
1019. He would, would he?Copy !req
1020. Thought he would be
having your daughter.Copy !req
1021. Hm.Copy !req
1022. All I can say, young man
has the world at his feet.Copy !req
1023. He asked me to come here
and give those to you.Copy !req
1024. You make of that what you will.Copy !req
1025. Girl,Copy !req
1026. if you don't say yes, I will.Copy !req
1027. - Tell Earvin
I'll think about it!
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1028. You have a good day now.Copy !req
