Amateur (2018)

1
00:00:18,685 --> 00:00:21,020
[upbeat music playing]

2
00:00:24,691 --> 00:00:26,443
[woman] Come this way, Terron.

3
00:00:31,281 --> 00:00:32,824
[man] Come on, T. Quick, quick.

4
00:00:36,453 --> 00:00:37,704
[boy 1] Oh!

5
00:00:45,795 --> 00:00:46,921
[laughs]

6
00:00:49,215 --> 00:00:51,593
- [crowd cheering]
- [boy 1] Let's go, T.

7
00:00:54,304 --> 00:00:55,304
Splash!

8
00:01:00,810 --> 00:01:02,896
Whoo!

9
00:01:11,821 --> 00:01:13,948
[girl 1] Give it back.
You're gonna drop it.

10
00:01:15,408 --> 00:01:18,078
Why are you watching my video anyway?
Watch this.

11
00:01:20,330 --> 00:01:21,831
Oh, yeah, layup.

12
00:01:23,083 --> 00:01:24,292
Right? Stoned.

13
00:01:25,210 --> 00:01:27,086
- [girl 2] Is that game?
- No. Ten to two.

14
00:01:27,170 --> 00:01:30,715
- One more and we beat them.
- Come on. I wanna keep playing.

15
00:01:31,508 --> 00:01:32,509
[boy 1] Win already.

16
00:01:32,884 --> 00:01:33,884
All right, whatever.

17
00:01:36,679 --> 00:01:37,680
Let me see that back.

18
00:01:39,307 --> 00:01:40,725
Whoop. [chuckles]

19
00:01:41,267 --> 00:01:42,894
[girl 1] Come on, Terron.

20
00:01:44,103 --> 00:01:46,439
End the game, already. Oh, my God.

21
00:01:46,523 --> 00:01:48,149
[school bell ringing]

22
00:01:48,233 --> 00:01:49,651
[Terron] Oh, come on.

23
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:51,110
Damn.

24
00:01:58,576 --> 00:02:02,664
[Doug] So, picking up from last class,
we're still dealing with probabilities.

25
00:02:02,747 --> 00:02:05,291
But today we're gonna apply them
to your lives.

26
00:02:05,917 --> 00:02:07,961
The chances of doing something.

27
00:02:08,044 --> 00:02:12,757
The odds, the likelihood.
Who's got something?

28
00:02:13,633 --> 00:02:15,135
- Anyone?
- [boy 1] What draft pick

29
00:02:15,218 --> 00:02:17,595
- will Terron be in the NBA?
- [Doug] That's a good one.

30
00:02:17,679 --> 00:02:18,847
Let's look it up.

31
00:02:19,722 --> 00:02:23,184
We can do that as probabilities
and express them as percentages.

32
00:02:24,894 --> 00:02:26,479
Odds of getting into the NBA.

33
00:02:27,856 --> 00:02:30,358
We have 500,000 high school players.

34
00:02:31,484 --> 00:02:34,404
A hundred and fifty thousand are seniors.
We have 18,000 college players.

35
00:02:45,957 --> 00:02:48,293
Four thousand of whom are on scholarship.

36
00:02:49,419 --> 00:02:51,337
Sixty NBA draft picks.

37
00:02:53,298 --> 00:02:54,924
Thirty in the first round.

38
00:02:58,094 --> 00:02:59,512
Fourteen lottery picks.

39
00:03:01,890 --> 00:03:03,933
[Terron] See how I stepped back?
I was like...

40
00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:06,728
[boy 1] Looks like a reverse layup
on Marcus. Man.

41
00:03:06,811 --> 00:03:07,811
[Terron] And one.

42
00:03:08,229 --> 00:03:10,732
- All right, bro.
- I'm heading out. See you.

43
00:03:12,108 --> 00:03:13,818
[Terron] All right, bro. See you.

44
00:03:32,003 --> 00:03:33,129
[sighs]

45
00:03:33,212 --> 00:03:34,547
Yo, Pops. Where you at?

46
00:03:45,683 --> 00:03:48,853
Ma, you're probably teaching
right now, but I'm at school.

47
00:03:49,145 --> 00:03:50,980
Dad still hasn't come get me yet.

48
00:03:51,439 --> 00:03:54,234
My phone is about to die, so...
you guys hurry up.

49
00:04:30,561 --> 00:04:31,729
[horn honks]

50
00:04:40,822 --> 00:04:43,283
Baby.
What, are you gonna walk the whole way?

51
00:04:43,783 --> 00:04:46,035
- [Terron] What else was I supposed to do?
- [sighs]

52
00:04:47,829 --> 00:04:51,791
I'm sorry. We tried to call you,
but we couldn't reach you.

53
00:04:51,874 --> 00:04:52,959
Yeah, my phone died.

54
00:04:54,168 --> 00:04:57,005
- Did his phone die, too?
- Well, he couldn't find it.

55
00:04:58,172 --> 00:05:00,049
Today is not one of his good days.

56
00:05:12,729 --> 00:05:15,064
I've gotta get my pills. Hold up.

57
00:05:15,773 --> 00:05:17,734
Oh, Vince. I gotta get to class.

58
00:05:20,695 --> 00:05:23,406
[sighs] They're gonna be done
with their tests by now.

59
00:05:27,327 --> 00:05:28,453
Speaking of tests...

60
00:05:31,414 --> 00:05:32,915
They ain't posted them yet.

61
00:05:34,500 --> 00:05:35,835
It went that badly, huh?

62
00:05:37,462 --> 00:05:41,924
How do you expect me to be great if you
kick me off the team for one bad grade?

63
00:05:42,008 --> 00:05:44,469
Why can't you just let me
give it all I got?

64
00:05:46,846 --> 00:05:47,846
Wait.

65
00:05:49,098 --> 00:05:53,102
When I'm done teaching, why am I
dropping the car off at your dad's work?

66
00:05:54,687 --> 00:05:58,775
So he can drive it back when he
finishes his shift. His double-shift.

67
00:05:58,858 --> 00:06:00,777
And why does he have to do that?

68
00:06:01,402 --> 00:06:04,697
I don't know. Because he got
hit in the head too many times?

69
00:06:04,781 --> 00:06:07,992
- Stop. I'm serious. Why?
- I'm serious, too. It's the truth.

70
00:06:08,826 --> 00:06:11,954
He's doing it because he
"gave it all he got."

71
00:06:14,916 --> 00:06:16,709
I'm not gonna end up like him.

72
00:06:17,835 --> 00:06:20,129
I don't even play the same sport he does.

73
00:06:21,297 --> 00:06:22,297
Did.

74
00:06:25,134 --> 00:06:27,929
- "Riverside" on three. One, two, three.
- [all] Riverside.

75
00:06:28,012 --> 00:06:29,222
[crowd cheering]

76
00:06:35,770 --> 00:06:36,854
T, let's go.

77
00:06:38,648 --> 00:06:42,151
Y'all get some popcorn.
There's about to be a show up in here.

78
00:07:22,233 --> 00:07:24,610
You have to put somebody else
on him, coach.

79
00:07:25,027 --> 00:07:28,781
Dude's in, like, the 9th grade, man.
Come on. Let's go. Get up.

80
00:07:29,949 --> 00:07:33,077
Come on. Go, go, go. Keep going. Hit him.

81
00:07:36,289 --> 00:07:37,289
Eighth grade.

82
00:07:49,177 --> 00:07:51,554
- Let's go.
- Here. Right here. Force him left.

83
00:07:52,930 --> 00:07:54,098
Force him left.

84
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,561
Lock him down.

85
00:08:06,277 --> 00:08:09,864
Finish the game strong.
Make the right play. Let's go.

86
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:12,742
Let's go, boy. Let's go.

87
00:08:14,035 --> 00:08:17,413
Come on. Hold it for the last shot.
Hold it for the last shot.

88
00:08:18,748 --> 00:08:23,377
Okay, T. You got 12, 11, ten, nine...

89
00:08:23,461 --> 00:08:25,713
Hold it. Hold it.

90
00:08:26,547 --> 00:08:28,841
Now, go. Five. Four...

91
00:08:34,096 --> 00:08:38,476
Finish that shit yourself.
Take the fucking shot. Goddamn it.

92
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,229
- [Doug] You made the right play, Terron.
- Thanks, coach.

93
00:08:43,189 --> 00:08:46,400
Forget about the L, baby.
Look at this. We bigtime.

94
00:08:46,484 --> 00:08:48,819
Fifty thousand views, huh?
Give it up.

95
00:08:49,737 --> 00:08:51,364
Go shake them up.

96
00:08:52,657 --> 00:08:55,618
Hey, good game.
Good game, guys. Good game.

97
00:08:55,868 --> 00:08:57,370
Good game, guys. Good game.

98
00:08:59,956 --> 00:09:01,207
There it is. All right.

99
00:09:01,290 --> 00:09:04,377
You a point guard.
But you ain't always gonna be up top.

100
00:09:05,294 --> 00:09:08,965
You ended up on big dog, earlier.
What was that move you came with?

101
00:09:09,674 --> 00:09:12,343
Did I feel something?
Wait. Wait, wait, wait.

102
00:09:13,219 --> 00:09:16,931
Did somebody leave a window open?
I think I felt a breeze. Oh, no.

103
00:09:17,014 --> 00:09:20,685
That was my son trying to bring
that weak-ass stuff. Come on, baby.

104
00:09:20,768 --> 00:09:24,939
Can't try to breeze through the lane.
I need you to be a hurricane. Get low.

105
00:09:25,898 --> 00:09:27,108
[grunts]

106
00:09:27,191 --> 00:09:29,193
That's what I'm talking about, boy. Mm.

107
00:09:31,237 --> 00:09:32,446
Yo, you good?

108
00:09:33,948 --> 00:09:36,909
Yeah. Yeah, I'm good. You know me.
[grunts]

109
00:09:40,413 --> 00:09:42,790
I'm gonna get that weak shit out of here.

110
00:09:43,332 --> 00:09:45,376
Better stop that mess.

111
00:09:45,459 --> 00:09:46,459
[Vince chuckles]

112
00:09:50,506 --> 00:09:54,218
I like what I see out there, T.
You got that rock on a string, baby.

113
00:09:54,552 --> 00:09:55,386
This is Byron.

114
00:09:55,469 --> 00:09:57,138
He's been scouting us from, uh...

115
00:09:58,347 --> 00:10:00,349
- Um...
- Liberty Union Prep.

116
00:10:00,433 --> 00:10:02,518
- There it is.
- Program on the come-up.

117
00:10:02,852 --> 00:10:05,271
Yo, let's get moving.
You've seen enough?

118
00:10:05,354 --> 00:10:07,940
- Let's chop it up.
- Get showered up, son.

119
00:10:15,489 --> 00:10:17,867
[boy 1] That was crazy.
That was a great game.

120
00:10:17,950 --> 00:10:22,121
[boy 2] That was crazy. He got right in
the coach's face, that was crazy.

121
00:10:23,831 --> 00:10:26,208
[Vince] This ain't about you,
this is about Riverside.

122
00:10:26,292 --> 00:10:29,003
There are other options for him.

123
00:10:29,086 --> 00:10:30,296
[Nia] What, private?

124
00:10:30,671 --> 00:10:33,275
[Vince] He won't be as good at anything
as he could be at this game.

125
00:10:33,299 --> 00:10:36,636
[Nia] He is too smart for you to say
what he could and couldn't be.

126
00:10:40,473 --> 00:10:42,725
[Doug on phone]
We have 500,000 high school players.

127
00:10:45,019 --> 00:10:47,563
A hundred and fifty thousand are seniors.

128
00:10:49,231 --> 00:10:51,776
We have 18,000 college players.

129
00:10:55,446 --> 00:10:57,990
Four thousand of whom are on scholarship.

130
00:11:00,826 --> 00:11:03,412
Sixty NBA draft picks.

131
00:11:03,496 --> 00:11:05,206
Hey. Having fun?

132
00:11:06,082 --> 00:11:07,583
[Doug] Thirty in the first round.

133
00:11:09,043 --> 00:11:11,462
We have 500,000 high school players.

134
00:11:13,214 --> 00:11:15,091
[Nia] Oh, you recorded your class.

135
00:11:15,674 --> 00:11:18,719
Wow, look at you.
That's good, Terron. That's clever.

136
00:11:18,803 --> 00:11:20,096
[Doug] 150,000 are seniors.

137
00:11:20,179 --> 00:11:23,057
[Nia] Are the math rods helping you
comprehend the numbers?

138
00:11:23,516 --> 00:11:27,061
- Still ain't making no sense.
- "Isn't" making "any" sense?

139
00:11:28,562 --> 00:11:30,398
- [sighs]
- Come on.

140
00:11:30,648 --> 00:11:32,274
You can do this. You got it.

141
00:11:38,364 --> 00:11:40,783
[Vince]
I ain't talking about walk-around money.

142
00:11:40,866 --> 00:11:43,327
It's gonna cost
to get his ass back and forth.

143
00:11:45,454 --> 00:11:47,456
Yeah. Get back to me with something.

144
00:11:48,082 --> 00:11:49,125
All right.

145
00:11:50,167 --> 00:11:53,421
- Who was that?
- Do you like playing on a losing team?

146
00:11:54,505 --> 00:11:55,339
No.

147
00:11:55,423 --> 00:11:58,634
That ain't gonna be a problem
no more. Your pops is on it.

148
00:11:59,009 --> 00:12:01,804
You just gotta keep putting in work,
all right?

149
00:12:01,887 --> 00:12:03,389

Who are you?

165
00:12:44,763 --> 00:12:46,348
Coach Gaines. Liberty Prep.

166
00:12:47,183 --> 00:12:49,351
Your dad said I might find you here.

167
00:12:53,230 --> 00:12:55,483
Your team is 0 and 6 this season, huh?

168
00:12:56,358 --> 00:12:59,028
That must be frustrating,
as good as you are.

169
00:12:59,612 --> 00:13:00,732
Yeah, it sucks. We're trash.

170
00:13:03,782 --> 00:13:06,160
If you were at Liberty,
you'd be 10 and 1.

171
00:13:06,243 --> 00:13:09,246
Play twice as many games
with better teammates, better facilities.

172
00:13:09,330 --> 00:13:13,042
You'd get to travel around the country.
You ever been to California?

173
00:13:14,043 --> 00:13:15,544
I never been out the state.

174
00:13:18,881 --> 00:13:19,924
What?

175
00:13:20,925 --> 00:13:25,137
I would have to leave my mom,
my pops, my friends. Everything.

176
00:13:30,684 --> 00:13:32,353
I wanna show you something.

177
00:13:34,563 --> 00:13:35,731
You recognize him?

178
00:13:36,857 --> 00:13:39,693
Yeah, he's nice.
You used to coach him or something?

179
00:13:39,777 --> 00:13:43,030
Yeah. In fact,
I met him on a court just like this one.

180
00:13:44,573 --> 00:13:46,242
He didn't wanna leave home.

181
00:13:46,325 --> 00:13:50,120
But he made the sacrifices he needed to
and now he's an NBA all-star.

182
00:13:50,704 --> 00:13:53,541
- Know what else he did to get there?
- Worked hard?

183
00:13:54,124 --> 00:13:57,670
No.
He listened to every fucking thing I said.

184
00:13:57,753 --> 00:14:00,589
Talent's not enough.
You need someone in your corner

185
00:14:00,673 --> 00:14:03,259
who knows the system
and how to play it for you.

186
00:14:03,801 --> 00:14:06,178
He figured that out
and he has 100 million.

187
00:14:06,262 --> 00:14:08,556
What would you do
with that money, Terron?

188
00:14:09,390 --> 00:14:11,642
I would buy my parents a house.

189
00:14:12,226 --> 00:14:15,104
One of those pools that's, like,
shaped like a bean.

190
00:14:16,313 --> 00:14:20,234
What are those things in the backyard
where you just like eat and fart?

191
00:14:22,069 --> 00:14:24,321
- A gazebo?
- Yeah, a gazebo.

192
00:14:25,698 --> 00:14:26,907
[chuckling]

193
00:14:29,034 --> 00:14:33,080
It's real nice you wanna take care
of your family, Terron. It is.

194
00:14:34,832 --> 00:14:37,793
We both know that's not gonna happen
if you stay here.

195
00:14:40,796 --> 00:14:42,006
Think about it.

196
00:14:48,554 --> 00:14:49,638
Wait, coach.

197
00:14:50,890 --> 00:14:54,560
I wanna make it just like him.
I wanna take care of my family.

198
00:14:57,897 --> 00:14:58,981
Good.

199
00:14:59,940 --> 00:15:02,860
Start by giving me 50
behind that crack right there.

200
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,613
All right.
Um, could you count them for me?

201
00:15:06,196 --> 00:15:07,406
You got it. Let's go.

202
00:15:08,824 --> 00:15:09,909
That's one.

203
00:15:10,367 --> 00:15:11,493
There you go. Nice.

204
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:16,080
Two.

205
00:15:16,749 --> 00:15:19,668
- [Terron] So, what's the gym like?
- Oh, the gym's real nice.

206
00:15:19,752 --> 00:15:21,629
- You're gonna like it.
- Can't wait.

207
00:15:22,504 --> 00:15:26,133
I wanna play basketball forever, coach.
Till I'm, like, your age.

208
00:15:27,217 --> 00:15:30,429
- [laughing] That's cold.
- [Vince] My bad for being late.

209
00:15:31,764 --> 00:15:35,351
- Did it all go down without me?
- [Gaines] I worked him out pretty hard.

210
00:15:35,434 --> 00:15:37,561
- Nice to meet you, Vince.
- Pretty hard?

211
00:15:37,978 --> 00:15:39,813
- [both chuckle]
- Is he onboard?

212
00:15:40,397 --> 00:15:44,360
See? I told you those highlights
would get the word out. Hmm?

213
00:15:45,110 --> 00:15:48,155
Byron and I talked broad strokes,
but we have details to hammer out.

214
00:15:48,238 --> 00:15:50,449
[Gaines] Sounds good. Byron's right.
You're tall.

215
00:15:50,532 --> 00:15:52,868
- What are you, 6'4"?
- And a half.

216
00:15:52,952 --> 00:15:55,412
- You were a player, too, right?
- [Vince] Three sports.

217
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,332
Yeah, I was all about football.
Wideout.

218
00:15:58,415 --> 00:16:02,378
Well, tight end after I hit my spurt.
I was shorter than him at his age.

219
00:16:03,545 --> 00:16:06,048
Man, he's gonna be tall.
His mama's tall, too.

220
00:16:06,674 --> 00:16:10,761
- That's good. I can't wait to meet her.
- It's gonna be three on one, right?

221
00:16:10,844 --> 00:16:14,264
- Ma won't let me go.
- Don't worry. She's not my first mom.

222
00:16:14,848 --> 00:16:16,308
You ain't her first coach.

223
00:16:16,392 --> 00:16:17,476
[laughing]

224
00:16:18,519 --> 00:16:20,688
All we need is a good game plan.

225
00:16:20,771 --> 00:16:23,857
I can set you up,
but you have to knock it down.

226
00:16:23,941 --> 00:16:27,695
Because the only person
she can't say no to... is you.

227
00:16:30,864 --> 00:16:31,864
You got this?

228
00:16:34,368 --> 00:16:36,870
[Gaines] We're offering your son
a full-ride scholarship,

229
00:16:36,954 --> 00:16:38,414
including room and board.

230
00:16:38,914 --> 00:16:41,083
Liberty's never offered this
to someone so young.

231
00:16:41,166 --> 00:16:43,585
That's how much we believe
in his potential.

232
00:16:43,669 --> 00:16:46,213
Your school is called Liberty?
This says it's...

233
00:16:46,296 --> 00:16:50,259
Liberty Prep is connected to Bishop
Anthony, an elite country day school

234
00:16:50,342 --> 00:16:53,262
that sends its students
to the finest universities.

235
00:16:53,345 --> 00:16:55,139
They prepare him academically,

236
00:16:55,222 --> 00:16:57,391
we prepare for the next level
athletically.

237
00:16:57,474 --> 00:16:59,601
It really is the best of both worlds.

238
00:16:59,685 --> 00:17:03,355
So, Liberty is a high school team.
But Terron is only 14.

239
00:17:03,439 --> 00:17:04,982
He's already playing up.

240
00:17:05,065 --> 00:17:07,151
He's gonna live with older students?

241
00:17:07,234 --> 00:17:09,153
[Gaines] He'll live and train
with the team.

242
00:17:09,236 --> 00:17:12,156
But he'll study with students his own age
at Bishop Anthony.

243
00:17:12,239 --> 00:17:15,117
- [Nia] How far away is this school?
- Just over the state line.

244
00:17:17,077 --> 00:17:19,913
Thanks for the offer.
We'll discuss it as a family.

245
00:17:20,456 --> 00:17:23,625
[Gaines] I understand.
Unfortunately, there is a timing element.

246
00:17:23,709 --> 00:17:25,294
I'm on my way to a tournament

247
00:17:25,377 --> 00:17:27,963
and a player is ready to accept
the roster spot.

248
00:17:28,047 --> 00:17:30,049
Nia, we cannot pass this up.

249
00:17:31,508 --> 00:17:36,221
Is there anything I can do to help you
feel more comfortable with this decision?

250
00:17:39,725 --> 00:17:44,063
If Terron goes to your school, he'd be
one of the smartest kids on your team...

251
00:17:45,397 --> 00:17:52,071
but he also has a condition, dyscalculia,
which is a kind of number blindness.

252
00:17:52,154 --> 00:17:53,363
He told me about it.

253
00:17:55,574 --> 00:17:56,700
He did?

254
00:17:58,243 --> 00:18:00,537
Ma, you think things are getting better?

255
00:18:01,663 --> 00:18:04,416
They will get better.
We need to work harder.

256
00:18:04,500 --> 00:18:05,876
You think I ain't trying?

257
00:18:07,377 --> 00:18:10,506
It's like a... Like another language.
I feel so stupid.

258
00:18:11,340 --> 00:18:13,801
But what else can we do
we ain't been doing?

259
00:18:14,843 --> 00:18:19,014
I mean, like, at his school,
they have learning specialists, tutors.

260
00:18:19,098 --> 00:18:22,059
They even got a whole, um...
What is it called?

261
00:18:22,142 --> 00:18:26,188
- Learning Differences curriculum.
- Ma, they have a whole program for me.

262
00:18:26,772 --> 00:18:28,524
Please, just let me go get help.

263
00:18:31,860 --> 00:18:34,071
Is this what you really want, our boy?

264
00:18:37,324 --> 00:18:41,495
You have to promise me that this is
leading him towards a college education.

265
00:18:41,578 --> 00:18:45,499
I'll promise he'll receive multiple
scholarship offers without a doubt.

266
00:18:46,041 --> 00:18:48,001
You have to promise me you're gonna work

267
00:18:48,085 --> 00:18:50,504
just as hard off the court
as you will on it.

268
00:18:50,587 --> 00:18:51,713
I promise.

269
00:19:02,057 --> 00:19:04,768
Everybody follow me.
I'll follow you guys back.

270
00:19:05,853 --> 00:19:08,397
About to check out the new school.

271
00:19:09,940 --> 00:19:11,275
We doing this live, baby.

272
00:19:13,193 --> 00:19:14,193
Fresh meat.

273
00:19:14,236 --> 00:19:16,321
- [Terron] What's up?
- How you doing?

274
00:19:16,405 --> 00:19:18,782
Coach Curtis. I'll get that for you.
Hop in.

275
00:19:19,533 --> 00:19:20,701
[Terron] There it is.

276
00:19:24,830 --> 00:19:26,165
Wasn't that the school?

277
00:19:26,248 --> 00:19:29,251
That's Bishop Anthony.
That's where you take classes.

278
00:19:29,334 --> 00:19:31,253
Home is this way.

279
00:19:46,768 --> 00:19:48,312
Welcome to Liberty House.

280
00:20:08,332 --> 00:20:12,252
- So, this is where the squad stays?
- Yeah, I know, it's a little rough,

281
00:20:12,336 --> 00:20:15,714
but remember, we're staying at nice hotels
most of the time.

282
00:20:16,632 --> 00:20:18,675
Why don't we just live in the school?

283
00:20:19,009 --> 00:20:22,512
Bishop Anthony is a day school,
so no one actually lives there.

284
00:20:25,641 --> 00:20:27,976
- So, who do we play for?
- We play for us.

285
00:20:28,060 --> 00:20:30,979
But it's good for them, too.
It's like a partnership.

286
00:20:31,063 --> 00:20:35,067
You know, they get some extra tuition,
make their diversity quota,

287
00:20:35,150 --> 00:20:37,945
and get some real ballers to cheer for.

288
00:20:38,028 --> 00:20:42,241
And we get our transcripts and visas
covered and get to use their facilities,

289
00:20:42,324 --> 00:20:44,576
which are nicer than some colleges.

290
00:20:45,827 --> 00:20:49,373
You'll see it tomorrow.
You're gonna love it. Trust me. This way.

291
00:20:50,916 --> 00:20:53,168
You just take that top bunk right there.

292
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,593
You need anything at all,
holler at me downstairs.

293
00:21:01,677 --> 00:21:04,471
All right.
Um, do I have to set an alarm?

294
00:21:04,554 --> 00:21:08,600
- No, I'll get you up bright and early.
- Wait. Um, what do we have first?

295
00:21:08,684 --> 00:21:11,478
First up is the optional-mandatory
workout.

296
00:21:11,561 --> 00:21:13,563
[chuckles] All right.

297
00:21:24,616 --> 00:21:26,326
[Anton] Yo, turn it the fuck off.

298
00:21:57,774 --> 00:21:58,817
[sighs]

299
00:22:10,078 --> 00:22:11,079
[Gaines] Good morning.

300
00:22:15,375 --> 00:22:17,419
Here you go, Terron. Good morning.

301
00:22:22,591 --> 00:22:24,051
Sup. My name's T.

302
00:22:26,219 --> 00:22:27,054
Yo, coach?

303
00:22:27,137 --> 00:22:28,513
[Gaines] Good morning, Anton.

304
00:22:29,014 --> 00:22:30,974
Got a daycare team
you ain't told us about?

305
00:22:31,058 --> 00:22:31,892
[Gaines chuckles]

306
00:22:31,975 --> 00:22:33,727
You somebody's son or something?

307
00:22:34,478 --> 00:22:35,479
Yeah. Ain't you?

308
00:22:39,733 --> 00:22:41,985
[Anton] Yo, I figured it out.

309
00:22:42,069 --> 00:22:43,403
I know who you are.

310
00:22:43,487 --> 00:22:46,073
You're the ball boy.
Why didn't you say so?

311
00:22:46,907 --> 00:22:49,701
- Wait, we got a game tonight?
- Yeah.

312
00:22:51,578 --> 00:22:55,207
Yo, y'all met the new ball boy?
He's gonna be carrying your shit.

313
00:23:22,484 --> 00:23:26,071
[Curtis] More gifted, more responsibility,
gentlemen.

314
00:23:27,197 --> 00:23:30,617
Pain is just the weakness
leaving your body.

315
00:23:31,243 --> 00:23:33,120
Get down in the squat, fresh meat.

316
00:23:33,203 --> 00:23:34,203
[grunting]

317
00:23:35,872 --> 00:23:38,667
Fresh meat here is working harder
than all y'all.

318
00:23:39,668 --> 00:23:41,086
Come on, get in there.

319
00:23:43,463 --> 00:23:44,297
[whistle blows]

320
00:23:44,381 --> 00:23:48,510
Let's go. Pack it in. Hit the shower.
You got second period in 26 minutes.

321
00:23:49,094 --> 00:23:51,847
Petrus. Wrong direction.

322
00:23:51,930 --> 00:23:53,014
[Petrus] My bad, coach.

323
00:23:53,098 --> 00:23:55,016
Class is through there, fresh meat.

324
00:24:12,701 --> 00:24:13,702
What time is it?

325
00:24:15,871 --> 00:24:18,111
We are not going to first period.
This was first period.

326
00:24:22,794 --> 00:24:26,548
So, then how am I gonna pass...
pre-algebra?

327
00:24:27,507 --> 00:24:28,507
Do not worry.

328
00:24:29,467 --> 00:24:31,511
You are getting help.
You understand?

329
00:24:45,859 --> 00:24:47,277
[girl 1] Hey, did you see...?

330
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:49,571
[boy 1] I'm only 70 percent sure
that I got...

331
00:24:49,779 --> 00:24:52,282
That I got...
The whole thing was...

332
00:24:58,496 --> 00:25:00,707
[boy 2] That test? Dude.
I didn't do the bonus question.

333
00:25:00,790 --> 00:25:04,030
You didn't get it? I didn't get it, either, - but I tried my best.
- [boy 1] Yeah.

334
00:25:04,211 --> 00:25:08,048
[woman] And everyone open to Psalms 32:34.

335
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,138
[Nia] Where are you, Terron?

336
00:25:15,222 --> 00:25:18,475
I'm supposed to be in class,
but I can't find any of them.

337
00:25:18,558 --> 00:25:21,436
Well, why don't you ask someone for help,
baby?

338
00:25:21,519 --> 00:25:23,063
I don't know anybody.

339
00:25:23,688 --> 00:25:26,566
You've gotta make new friends.
You might as well start now.

340
00:25:26,650 --> 00:25:27,859
Yeah.

341
00:25:27,943 --> 00:25:29,486
- Ball boy.
- Yo, Petrus.

342
00:25:30,237 --> 00:25:31,613
Ma, let me call you back.

343
00:25:32,447 --> 00:25:34,491
I need your help finding my classes.

344
00:25:35,700 --> 00:25:37,786
Your next class, second floor,

345
00:25:38,578 --> 00:25:41,164
but you don't need to take
this one or that one.

346
00:25:42,457 --> 00:25:44,876
I'm missing one class
because of the workout.

347
00:25:45,168 --> 00:25:48,213
If we take test online
or if we turn in paper,

348
00:25:48,296 --> 00:25:49,798
the team gets help to pass.

349
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:51,840
Hmm.

350
00:25:52,342 --> 00:25:54,678
We're all in the
Learning Differences curriculum.

351
00:25:54,761 --> 00:25:55,761
What?

352
00:25:55,887 --> 00:25:57,222
Oh. [chuckles]

353
00:25:57,305 --> 00:26:01,351
The Learning Differences curriculum.
You don't go to class all the time.

354
00:26:01,434 --> 00:26:04,312
You have practices, workouts,
games, travel.

355
00:26:04,396 --> 00:26:08,900
We cannot go. Coach, he makes sure
we stay eligible for college.

356
00:26:08,984 --> 00:26:10,485
So, we don't have to worry?

357
00:26:11,486 --> 00:26:14,197
We're too big to fail.
Come. Lose to me in 2K.

358
00:26:15,699 --> 00:26:16,699
Yeah, all right.

359
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:20,870
But you going down. Watch.

360
00:26:20,954 --> 00:26:24,749
[Petrus] Dude. I'm gonna destroy you.
You wanna bet 5 bucks?

361
00:26:24,833 --> 00:26:26,918
- [Terron] What?
- I'm gonna kill you.

362
00:26:27,002 --> 00:26:28,753
- [Terron] I'm taking your money.
- [laughs]

363
00:26:34,843 --> 00:26:35,927
Fresh meat.

364
00:26:36,011 --> 00:26:38,096
- Oh, nice.
- [Curtis] These your size?

365
00:26:39,347 --> 00:26:40,557
No, these are my size.

366
00:26:42,684 --> 00:26:44,352
[all laughing]

367
00:26:46,813 --> 00:26:48,648
Yo, coach. Am I starting tonight?

368
00:26:49,232 --> 00:26:51,276
You're gonna be starting, little man.

369
00:26:52,986 --> 00:26:55,947
Minute after never.
In the month of Nevuary.

370
00:26:56,031 --> 00:26:57,782
Nevuary 32nd.

371
00:26:59,367 --> 00:27:01,411
- So, what number you want?
- Um...

372
00:27:01,828 --> 00:27:02,828
One?

373
00:27:03,705 --> 00:27:04,831
[Anton] Yo.

374
00:27:09,919 --> 00:27:10,919
[crowd cheering]

375
00:27:17,010 --> 00:27:21,056
Ref, that's more than three seconds.
He's living in that paint. Call that.

376
00:27:21,639 --> 00:27:24,476
Forty. Forty. There you go.
Pass it. Pass it.

377
00:27:24,559 --> 00:27:26,439
Fuck. Time-out.
[whistle blows and crowd booing]

378
00:27:31,649 --> 00:27:34,110
- Petrus, what the hell was that?
- [Petrus] I was open.

379
00:27:34,194 --> 00:27:37,447
- I'm a three-point shooter.
- You're not a three-point maker.

380
00:27:37,530 --> 00:27:39,991
Why do they call me "Microwave"?
I get hot.

381
00:27:40,075 --> 00:27:42,160
They call you Microwave
because you give me cancer.

382
00:27:42,243 --> 00:27:44,746
Now, have a seat.
Come on, Forte. You're in.

383
00:27:45,121 --> 00:27:46,289
Show us what you got.

384
00:27:49,167 --> 00:27:50,794
Coach, how much time is left?

385
00:27:51,753 --> 00:27:53,213
Two fifty-eight. Let's go.

386
00:27:54,339 --> 00:27:58,134
He's not tall, but at least he got
special needs. Good pickup, coach.

387
00:28:19,531 --> 00:28:20,615
[crowd cheering]

388
00:28:22,283 --> 00:28:25,703
Terron. You're not in the bush league.
Head up. See the floor.

389
00:28:27,038 --> 00:28:29,499
Screen, screen.
All right, do it, Terron.

390
00:28:36,089 --> 00:28:38,258
You can't switch there. Time-out.

391
00:28:38,341 --> 00:28:39,551
[whistle blows]

392
00:28:44,097 --> 00:28:46,766
There's a whole new level
of competition here, Terron.

393
00:28:46,850 --> 00:28:48,977
Everyone's seen that eurostep before.

394
00:28:49,686 --> 00:28:52,230
Get used to guys
meeting you above the rim.

395
00:28:52,313 --> 00:28:55,692
Come in like you did in the game.
All right? Now, hold up.

396
00:28:56,484 --> 00:29:00,822
See? You give the defender an easy block.
But, you pro-hop to the other side,

397
00:29:00,905 --> 00:29:03,158
use the rim as protection,
finish with the reverse.

398
00:29:08,329 --> 00:29:11,833
Good. All right. Now speed it up
and cover more ground.

399
00:29:16,337 --> 00:29:17,337
There you go.

400
00:29:17,714 --> 00:29:20,967
All right, listen. Daddy's gotta go.
I love you. Okay?

401
00:29:21,050 --> 00:29:23,219
All right, I miss you, too. Good night.

402
00:29:23,303 --> 00:29:26,473
You know that move was called a travel
back when I played.

403
00:29:26,556 --> 00:29:29,476
Coach, you didn't have
the three-point line when you played.

404
00:29:29,559 --> 00:29:34,105
Sure as hell had one when I dropped seven
against Carolina in the '94 tournament.

405
00:29:34,189 --> 00:29:36,107
- For real?
- YouTube that shit.

406
00:29:37,984 --> 00:29:38,984
You ever go pro?

407
00:29:39,444 --> 00:29:42,906
Not in the NBA. No speed, no size.

408
00:29:42,989 --> 00:29:44,741
Couldn't really play D for shit.

409
00:29:44,824 --> 00:29:47,243
Good enough to play
in Latvia for a while.

410
00:29:47,327 --> 00:29:51,122
- Where Latvia at?
- Exactly. That's what I said to my agent.

411
00:29:51,206 --> 00:29:53,041
But it was the only offer we got,

412
00:29:53,124 --> 00:29:56,503
so I kept playing, saw the world,
had a good run.

413
00:29:57,670 --> 00:30:01,090
- Sounds pretty fun to me. I'll play there.
- Yeah.

414
00:30:01,174 --> 00:30:03,635
Let's get out
before I get us both in trouble.

415
00:30:03,718 --> 00:30:05,261
In trouble for what?

416
00:30:05,345 --> 00:30:08,348
Rules say you can only practice
so many hours in a day.

417
00:30:09,140 --> 00:30:12,018
Can I keep playing?
I'm trying to get the move down.

418
00:30:13,353 --> 00:30:15,939
- You know what? You're right. Fuck them.
- [chuckles]

419
00:30:17,482 --> 00:30:20,276
- Let's do the same thing, other side.
- All right.

420
00:30:22,445 --> 00:30:24,697
Here. Come on.

421
00:30:27,325 --> 00:30:29,494
Your family live in the house, coach?

422
00:30:29,577 --> 00:30:32,288
No, I'm crashing with the team
for a little while.

423
00:30:33,081 --> 00:30:37,252
You know, it's tough being a coach's wife,
especially when you have 12 boys.

424
00:30:38,086 --> 00:30:40,505
Damn. You be getting busy, coach.

425
00:30:41,923 --> 00:30:43,299
Oh, oh. You talking about us.

426
00:30:43,383 --> 00:30:44,467
[both laughing]

427
00:30:45,009 --> 00:30:46,886
[Gaines] Yeah. I'm talking about us.

428
00:30:46,970 --> 00:30:49,931
But in the off-season,
the roster's down to two girls.

429
00:30:50,014 --> 00:30:53,434
- Maybe you'll meet them.
- Yeah? What they look like? They cute?

430
00:30:54,310 --> 00:30:55,603
Oh, come on, coach.

431
00:30:55,687 --> 00:30:57,146
[both laughing]

432
00:31:00,567 --> 00:31:02,443
[Olembe speaking in foreign language]

433
00:31:11,661 --> 00:31:13,621
[laughing]

434
00:31:14,455 --> 00:31:17,208
Nice ringtone, nigga.
Your mother call you?

435
00:31:20,670 --> 00:31:22,213
Do not listen to these two:

436
00:31:22,297 --> 00:31:24,048
Uh... [speaks in foreign language]

437
00:31:25,717 --> 00:31:27,677
They are... What...?
What is your word?

438
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,804
Uh... Douche bags.

439
00:31:29,888 --> 00:31:30,972
[all laughing]

440
00:31:31,514 --> 00:31:33,808
- Yo, how old are you?
- I'm 18.

441
00:31:34,183 --> 00:31:35,268
[Anton clearing throat]

442
00:31:35,351 --> 00:31:39,147
- Cough up that birth certificate.
- Shut up your mouth. Idiot.

443
00:31:39,230 --> 00:31:41,524
[Petrus] Olembe, you were 6
when you were born, no?

444
00:31:41,608 --> 00:31:44,944
Hey, yo, special needs.
You almost had a trillion tonight.

445
00:31:46,404 --> 00:31:49,866
You know what that is?
One minute and ten zeros.

446
00:31:49,949 --> 00:31:51,242
[both laughing]

447
00:31:52,493 --> 00:31:54,370
[Petrus] Funny. Zero points, zero assists.

448
00:31:54,454 --> 00:31:56,456
Yo, you know how to read
a box score?

449
00:32:14,098 --> 00:32:16,059
Hey, yo, rook. Your job ain't done.

450
00:32:17,060 --> 00:32:18,300
Carry my shit. All season long.

451
00:32:49,133 --> 00:32:53,012
- What the fuck did you do with it?
- What are you talking about, bro?

452
00:32:56,140 --> 00:32:58,393
Bro, I will fuck you up, man.

453
00:32:58,476 --> 00:33:01,646
Whoa, whoa, whoa. What's going on?
Why aren't you dressed?

454
00:33:01,729 --> 00:33:04,941
- This motherfucker took my bag.
- What's he talking about?

455
00:33:05,024 --> 00:33:08,695
I don't know. I mean,
I saw one in the back of the van.

456
00:33:09,654 --> 00:33:11,364
It could've been his, coach.

457
00:33:11,447 --> 00:33:14,575
The van's in the back of the lot,
so hurry up, Anton.

458
00:33:19,288 --> 00:33:23,751
[announcer] And starting at guard,
number zero, Terron Forte.

459
00:33:23,835 --> 00:33:25,545
[crowd booing and cheering]

460
00:33:26,963 --> 00:33:29,048
[all shouting]

461
00:33:29,132 --> 00:33:31,634
- Take care of business. One, two, three.
- [all] Liberty.

462
00:33:32,093 --> 00:33:34,846
Hey. Just run motion. All right?

463
00:33:34,929 --> 00:33:36,514
Show me why I brought you here.

464
00:33:36,597 --> 00:33:37,682
Yes, coach.

465
00:33:52,113 --> 00:33:53,113
There we go.

466
00:33:58,161 --> 00:33:59,954
Nice of you to join us, Lyles.

467
00:34:10,506 --> 00:34:11,883
Never gonna start, huh?

468
00:34:20,058 --> 00:34:23,186
Go, go. Shoot it. Shoot. Shoot.
Terron...

469
00:34:31,652 --> 00:34:34,072
[Curtis] Don't let up. Let's go. Let's go.

470
00:34:34,155 --> 00:34:35,198
Forte.

471
00:34:36,074 --> 00:34:37,074
What's wrong?

472
00:34:37,950 --> 00:34:39,368
Is this that numbers thing?

473
00:34:40,036 --> 00:34:41,036
[sighs]

474
00:34:41,412 --> 00:34:42,955
I can't read the shot clock.

475
00:34:44,248 --> 00:34:47,186
- What did you do at your old school?
- We didn't have a stupid shot clock.

476
00:34:47,210 --> 00:34:50,963
Right. What about at the end of every
quarter? What did you do then?

477
00:34:54,467 --> 00:34:55,468
[crowd cheering]

478
00:34:58,096 --> 00:35:02,934
Seven, six, five... Go, go, go.

479
00:35:08,523 --> 00:35:09,523
[Petrus] Whoo!

480
00:35:12,443 --> 00:35:15,279
See that pass?
He's only 14 years old.

481
00:35:16,072 --> 00:35:17,115
[chuckles]

482
00:35:18,574 --> 00:35:20,076
Top of that rim, I'm telling you.

483
00:35:20,159 --> 00:35:21,159
Forte.

484
00:35:21,452 --> 00:35:24,455
- Yo.
- Next game, we pick and roll, yes?

485
00:35:24,539 --> 00:35:26,541
- Yeah, all right.
- You throw me ally,

486
00:35:26,624 --> 00:35:28,334
I put nuts on their face.

487
00:35:28,417 --> 00:35:29,417
[both laughing]

488
00:35:29,460 --> 00:35:30,940
Yeah, I got you. [Byron] Point guard.

489
00:35:35,633 --> 00:35:36,633
What's up, Byron?

490
00:35:42,932 --> 00:35:45,560
Good game, champ.
Yo, I got something for you.

491
00:35:53,276 --> 00:35:56,237
- Oh, snap.
- You getting upgraded, baby boy.

492
00:35:56,821 --> 00:35:59,240
- You want it?
- Yeah, word.

493
00:35:59,323 --> 00:36:02,577
Whatever you need,
you just holla at Uncle B.

494
00:36:03,494 --> 00:36:04,787
- All right.
- All right?

495
00:36:05,621 --> 00:36:07,290
- Thanks, Byron.
- All right.

496
00:36:26,684 --> 00:36:27,684
[Gaines] Forte.

497
00:36:30,605 --> 00:36:33,399
- Wanna take your game to the next level?
- No doubt.

498
00:36:33,482 --> 00:36:35,985
Good. Then you need to learn
how to run plays.

499
00:36:36,068 --> 00:36:38,613
You need to know this offense
inside and out.

500
00:36:38,696 --> 00:36:39,989
So, I'm gonna be point?

501
00:36:40,072 --> 00:36:41,449
Slow down there, homeboy.

502
00:36:41,532 --> 00:36:43,576
I'm gonna keep you at the two
for now.

503
00:36:43,659 --> 00:36:46,662
Gonna have you back up Anton at the one.
He's more of a scoring guard,

504
00:36:46,746 --> 00:36:49,957
but he's a senior and he knows
the plays well. All right?

505
00:36:51,375 --> 00:36:55,838
You're my point guard of the future.
I'll get you up to speed on the playbook.

506
00:36:55,922 --> 00:36:58,549
- [Anton] Thirty-two.
- Okay. You see what he's doing?

507
00:36:58,633 --> 00:37:02,720
- We use numbers for our play calls.
- So, the numbers are like names, right?

508
00:37:02,803 --> 00:37:04,055
- [Anton] Hold up.
- Exactly.

509
00:37:04,138 --> 00:37:06,891
- Is that gonna be a problem?
- Oh, no. I got it.

510
00:37:06,974 --> 00:37:10,144
First number is the play.
Second number is the direction.

511
00:37:10,228 --> 00:37:12,313
Odds to the left, evens to the right.

512
00:37:13,189 --> 00:37:14,690
- So, odds to the...
- Left.

513
00:37:19,862 --> 00:37:22,114
Look. Anton, call 47.

514
00:37:22,198 --> 00:37:24,075
- Forty-seven.
- See what he's doing?

515
00:37:24,158 --> 00:37:26,535
Forty's the play.
And seven's the direction.

516
00:37:26,619 --> 00:37:29,455
If it was on the other side, it'd be 48.
You got it?

517
00:37:30,665 --> 00:37:33,209
Don't worry.
You'll pick it up quick. Coach?

518
00:37:37,338 --> 00:37:39,799
I want you to bury your nose
in this playbook

519
00:37:39,882 --> 00:37:42,260
like it's a pillow made out of
Rihanna's titties.

520
00:37:42,343 --> 00:37:43,344
[laughing]

521
00:37:43,427 --> 00:37:44,553
[Anton] Forty-eight.

522
00:37:46,138 --> 00:37:48,140
- I got you, coach.
- Now, watch this.

523
00:37:59,151 --> 00:38:01,487
[Anton] Y'all know why big man
can't hit no threes?

524
00:38:01,570 --> 00:38:02,446
Why's that, man?

525
00:38:02,530 --> 00:38:04,615
Because he's nailing them all day
off the court.

526
00:38:04,699 --> 00:38:06,033
[all laughing]

527
00:38:06,117 --> 00:38:07,159
Stupid, man.

528
00:38:07,827 --> 00:38:10,454
Hey, yo.
I got a question for you, Einstein.

529
00:38:13,958 --> 00:38:15,960
It's the number of fucks I give.

530
00:38:16,544 --> 00:38:20,423
Bro, I'm being serious.
I wanna know what you're doing.

531
00:38:20,506 --> 00:38:23,426
What are these blocks for?
Maybe they could help me?

532
00:38:24,051 --> 00:38:28,097
Hey. Don't tell them, but...
[whispers] I got a learning disability.

533
00:38:28,639 --> 00:38:31,183
Something that works for you
could work for me.

534
00:38:32,143 --> 00:38:36,856
Well, they just represent numbers.
This represents five, this represents ten.

535
00:38:36,939 --> 00:38:39,275
- Yeah.
- So, this is half of that.

536
00:38:39,358 --> 00:38:41,277
Oh. I see.

537
00:38:41,777 --> 00:38:43,779
You're trying to diagram plays.

538
00:38:44,905 --> 00:38:46,949
Dawg, I'm glad you're here.

539
00:38:47,700 --> 00:38:51,037
Yo, this nigga's gonna make me
look like a fucking genius.

[crowd cheering, then whistle blows]

542
00:38:58,085 --> 00:39:00,046
- [Curtis] Hey, hey.
- [ref] Double foul.

543
00:39:00,129 --> 00:39:01,297
Three black, one white.

544
00:39:01,672 --> 00:39:04,925
Use your heads. You can't foul out
in a situation like that.

545
00:39:05,259 --> 00:39:07,887
[ref] That's five on number one.
He's gone, coach.

546
00:39:07,970 --> 00:39:11,015
Anton, get your ass up.
Terron, you slide to the one.

547
00:39:12,099 --> 00:39:15,311
All right, listen up.
We're gonna hold for the last shot.

548
00:39:15,394 --> 00:39:17,813
We're gonna run 50.
Terron, it's a tie game.

549
00:39:17,897 --> 00:39:20,024
You be patient, make the read.

550
00:39:20,107 --> 00:39:22,526
Let's go. Finish on three.
One, two, three.

551
00:39:22,610 --> 00:39:24,111
- [all] Finish!
- Let's go. Come on.

552

- Yeah, I...

- Why did you go right?
- You was supposed to...

559
00:39:55,309 --> 00:39:57,728
You go left.
Odds go left, you fucking idiot.

560
00:40:04,443 --> 00:40:06,737
Terron, what the hell was that?

561
00:40:06,821 --> 00:40:10,616
- I'm not used to plays with directions.
- Your problem's with numbers.

562
00:40:10,699 --> 00:40:13,702
No, it's, like, a visual thing.
Numbers are backwards.

563
00:40:13,786 --> 00:40:16,163
- Left is right sometimes...
- Listen to me.

564
00:40:16,247 --> 00:40:19,208

[Vince groaning]

668
00:46:52,142 --> 00:46:53,685
[Vince] Come on, now. Leave me be.

669
00:46:55,437 --> 00:46:56,897
Cut the light off.

670
00:46:59,983 --> 00:47:01,109
T?

671
00:47:03,820 --> 00:47:07,783
Get your narrow ass over here
and give your old man some love. Hey, boy.

672
00:47:08,659 --> 00:47:10,953
Nationally ranked player up in here.

673
00:47:12,746 --> 00:47:15,249
- Boy, what you doing home?
- No, I'm just on break.

674
00:47:15,332 --> 00:47:16,458
Oh.

675
00:47:17,167 --> 00:47:19,419
Wait a minute. Did I forget
to pick you up again?

676
00:47:21,421 --> 00:47:22,798
Why you in my room, Dad?

677
00:47:24,716 --> 00:47:25,801
[grunts]

678
00:47:28,136 --> 00:47:30,430
I must've just passed out here, you know?

679
00:47:32,432 --> 00:47:34,309
Let me get this out of your way.

680
00:47:35,310 --> 00:47:36,310
Shit.

681
00:47:37,563 --> 00:47:38,563
God...

682
00:47:49,575 --> 00:47:52,202
- [Vince] Why you arguing?
- [man] We've gone through this.

683
00:47:52,286 --> 00:47:54,889
- [Vince] That's bullshit.
- Not the first time we went through this.

684
00:47:54,913 --> 00:47:57,958
- I've done this with everyone...
- [Vince] I'm handing you cash.

685
00:47:58,041 --> 00:48:01,378
[man] It says clearly you gotta pay
the full amount or you're out.

686
00:48:01,461 --> 00:48:04,881
[Vince] I don't give a fuck. You don't
post more notices on that door.

687
00:48:05,549 --> 00:48:08,260
And you come to me, man-to-man.
Take your money.

688
00:48:17,561 --> 00:48:19,521
Mom. What's going on?

689
00:48:19,605 --> 00:48:21,064
Why was he in my room?

690
00:48:22,149 --> 00:48:24,484
We miss having you around.

691
00:48:24,568 --> 00:48:27,112
But we're gonna work everything out.

692
00:48:28,614 --> 00:48:32,284
Wait. Are we gonna have to move
because he lost his job again?

693
00:48:33,076 --> 00:48:34,995
No, he's gonna find something else.

694
00:48:36,038 --> 00:48:38,415
I mean, he could try to get some help.

695
00:48:41,001 --> 00:48:43,462
Now, you know
he won't see anybody about it.

696
00:48:48,925 --> 00:48:49,925
Come on.

697
00:48:56,391 --> 00:48:57,476
Where you been?

698
00:48:59,311 --> 00:49:00,896
[Vince] I been in the weight room.

699
00:49:01,730 --> 00:49:03,482
How your old man look, boy?

700
00:49:03,565 --> 00:49:05,817
- Yoked up.
- [chuckles]

701
00:49:06,318 --> 00:49:08,153
Yeah, I still got something left.

702
00:49:08,695 --> 00:49:11,782
Yeah. Me and Ma,
we was just talking about that.

703
00:49:12,866 --> 00:49:14,117
Talking about what?

704
00:49:15,243 --> 00:49:17,079
What playing football did to you.

705
00:49:19,831 --> 00:49:21,083
Yeah, what'd she say?

706
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,671
She said...
She said you should go see a doctor.

707
00:49:27,422 --> 00:49:29,716
She don't know what she's talking about.

708
00:49:31,468 --> 00:49:34,388
Playing the way you did,
like, getting concussions...

709
00:49:34,471 --> 00:49:37,224
Ain't nothing, T. You hear me?

710
00:49:38,308 --> 00:49:40,519
- The other things...
- It ain't the same.

711
00:49:41,019 --> 00:49:44,398
- Do you know what's wrong...?
- I know exactly what it is, okay?

712
00:49:46,024 --> 00:49:50,237
Can't do nothing about it.
Neither can you, or any doctor.

713
00:49:51,321 --> 00:49:54,825
- I'm sorr... I...
- You sorry? Then what?

714
00:49:54,908 --> 00:49:55,908
Ain't no check.

715
00:49:57,035 --> 00:49:58,787
Ain't no reparations for this.

716
00:49:58,870 --> 00:50:01,540
These fucking headaches,
this useless memory.

717
00:50:01,623 --> 00:50:02,958
Now, you listen to me.

718
00:50:03,041 --> 00:50:06,503
Because I learned something from
all these years at JuCo.

719
00:50:06,586 --> 00:50:08,630
And the middle school, high school,

720
00:50:08,714 --> 00:50:11,425
I learned that these coaches,
these agents,

721
00:50:11,508 --> 00:50:15,053
these motherfuckers wearing those suits,
they are gonna use you.

722
00:50:16,847 --> 00:50:20,016
So, we have got to figure out
how to use them to get ours.

723
00:50:21,601 --> 00:50:22,602
You hear me?

724
00:50:43,665 --> 00:50:45,375
[Gaines] The kid's better in person.

725
00:50:46,877 --> 00:50:49,629
Uh-huh. Yeah. Well, you know what?

726
00:50:49,713 --> 00:50:52,174
I don't care how many views
his mixtape has.

727
00:50:52,883 --> 00:50:55,927
He came into my office.
I gotta get off the phone.

728
00:50:57,888 --> 00:50:59,014
[hangs up phone]

729
00:50:59,097 --> 00:51:02,809
Hey, Terron. What's up?
What brings you to the presidential suite?

730
00:51:05,061 --> 00:51:07,481
Can you hire another assistant coach?

731
00:51:08,857 --> 00:51:09,858
Why?

732
00:51:10,817 --> 00:51:13,111
Well, my dad, he needs a job.

733
00:51:15,030 --> 00:51:19,034
[sighs] Well, look. I don't have
the budget for that. I wish I did.

734
00:51:19,910 --> 00:51:22,370
Well, we got a sponsor now.
Doesn't that help?

735
00:51:22,454 --> 00:51:25,081
It helps, but they're just
supplying us product.

736
00:51:25,165 --> 00:51:28,919
We don't have their deal.
Hell, he's got four paid assistants.

737
00:51:30,170 --> 00:51:32,422
- Who are they?
- Victory Country Day.

738
00:51:32,506 --> 00:51:34,549
One of the top-ranked teams in the nation.

739
00:51:34,633 --> 00:51:35,926
What, are we playing them next?

740
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:40,138
If we're lucky we play them
in the finals of the invitational.

741
00:51:40,222 --> 00:51:42,557
Know what I could do with four assistants?

742
00:51:42,641 --> 00:51:43,767
Hire my pops?

743
00:51:45,811 --> 00:51:47,562
He's the reason I'm here, coach.

744
00:51:52,734 --> 00:51:53,734
Hold on.

745
00:51:55,946 --> 00:51:57,572
You really want him here, huh?

746
00:52:00,909 --> 00:52:03,036
You been using that move
I showed you?

747
00:52:03,119 --> 00:52:05,330
- Which one?
- All of them.

748
00:52:06,039 --> 00:52:07,039
[chuckles]

749
00:52:07,082 --> 00:52:10,252
So, uh, what...?
What do you got in mind for me, coach?

750
00:52:10,335 --> 00:52:12,087
We'll have you work with Byron.

751
00:52:12,170 --> 00:52:15,340
Help surround Terron
with the right players for next year.

752
00:52:15,423 --> 00:52:17,050
He is the future of this team.

753
00:52:17,843 --> 00:52:21,346
Indeed, so you, uh...
You want me to Uncle up. Got you.

754
00:52:21,429 --> 00:52:24,933
- Well, you gonna get him some size?
- Exactly.

755
00:52:25,016 --> 00:52:26,977
Have to be on the road a lot. Okay?

756
00:52:27,060 --> 00:52:29,521
- [Vince] I'll do whatever it takes.
- [Gaines] Great.

757
00:52:29,604 --> 00:52:31,940
[Gaines] Shake hands,
find out who's not happy.

758
00:52:32,524 --> 00:52:34,943
- Sound good?
- [Vince] That sounds great.

759
00:52:35,026 --> 00:52:38,363
Good. Glad to have you onboard, Vince.
I know Terron is, too.

760
00:52:38,446 --> 00:52:42,701
- Uh... Who do I talk to about, uh...?
- Byron can handle all that.

761
00:52:42,784 --> 00:52:43,784
Thank you.

762
00:52:48,164 --> 00:52:50,375
I'll tell you something.
We sucked tonight,

763
00:52:50,458 --> 00:52:53,920
but you guys sucked, too.
Both of you. Tell your buddy that.

764
00:52:54,004 --> 00:52:55,088
Listen up.

765
00:52:56,339 --> 00:53:00,176
Listen. You guys like your new sneakers,
new uniforms, all that?

766
00:53:00,260 --> 00:53:02,387
Yeah? Good. You can kiss it goodbye

767
00:53:02,470 --> 00:53:05,807
if you let a bunch of scrubs
hang with us. 15 seconds left.

768
00:53:05,891 --> 00:53:08,310
Let's finish them off.
And we're running 60.

769
00:53:08,393 --> 00:53:12,564
Terron, if we get the mismatch,
hit Petrus down in the post, all right?

770
00:53:12,647 --> 00:53:14,190
- [Terron] Yes, coach.
- [Gaines] Go.

771
00:53:14,274 --> 00:53:16,401
- Come on. Win on three. One, two, three.
- [all] Win.

772
00:53:16,484 --> 00:53:17,484
[Anton] Go.

773
00:53:18,069 --> 00:53:21,740
Look, I'm just saying, it shouldn't even
come down to this. It's bullshit.

774
00:53:26,786 --> 00:53:28,580
[Terron] Sixty-three. Sixty-three.

775
00:53:36,421 --> 00:53:38,965
[buzzer buzzing, then crowd cheering]

776
00:53:39,049 --> 00:53:41,551
Let's go, boy! Let's get it!

777
00:53:41,968 --> 00:53:43,094
Yeah!

778
00:53:43,178 --> 00:53:44,512
[yells]

779
00:53:46,181 --> 00:53:48,183
Good passing.
That's what I'm talking about.

780
00:53:48,266 --> 00:53:50,143
Dumped on him, like boom!

781
00:53:50,226 --> 00:53:54,105
Listen to him. Good game, fellas.
T, let me holla at you.

782
00:53:55,106 --> 00:53:56,733
Let me holla at you.
Good game.

783
00:53:56,900 --> 00:53:59,945
Good game, but, uh...
why didn't you take that last shot?

784
00:54:00,612 --> 00:54:02,405
- What you mean? We won.
- No, listen.

785
00:54:02,489 --> 00:54:05,492
We are here to show people you can
show out when the spotlight's on.

786
00:54:06,076 --> 00:54:07,577
That's all them scouts see.

787
00:54:08,328 --> 00:54:09,371
You understand?

788
00:54:10,372 --> 00:54:11,373
You hear me?

789
00:54:13,333 --> 00:54:15,460
- Good game. Shower up.
- Okay.

790
00:54:17,128 --> 00:54:21,800
"The university has shown sincere interest
in you as a prospective student-athlete.

791
00:54:22,759 --> 00:54:25,428
We are informing you of our desire
to recruit you

792
00:54:25,512 --> 00:54:27,305
to our prestigious university."

793
00:54:27,806 --> 00:54:30,392
[chuckles] You know what that means?

794
00:54:30,475 --> 00:54:34,062
You are now an official prospect
in the eyes of the NCAA.

795
00:54:34,145 --> 00:54:36,564
And you're in the damn eighth grade,
my man.

796
00:54:37,107 --> 00:54:38,108
[chuckles]

797
00:54:40,610 --> 00:54:42,278
- They want me to visit.
- Mm-hm.

798
00:54:42,362 --> 00:54:44,447
- Should I go?
- Hell, no.

799
00:54:44,531 --> 00:54:47,534
You're not going to some mid-major.
You kidding me?

800
00:54:48,118 --> 00:54:50,829
Listen, Terron, for the next five years,

801
00:54:50,912 --> 00:54:53,373
schools are gonna be sending you letters

802
00:54:53,456 --> 00:54:58,086
trying to spray and pray, but I wanna
get you offers from the blue bloods.

803
00:54:58,169 --> 00:55:01,214
- Wanna play in the Final Four?
- I wanna win the chip.

804
00:55:01,297 --> 00:55:03,383
Good. Then tune out all that noise.

805
00:55:03,466 --> 00:55:07,554
Don't listen to these schools. They
don't have your best interest at heart.

806
00:55:07,637 --> 00:55:10,306
In fact, don't listen
to anyone else about this.

807
00:55:10,390 --> 00:55:12,642
Not anyone,
you understand what I'm saying?

808
00:55:15,645 --> 00:55:16,645
You sure?

809
00:55:18,189 --> 00:55:20,066
Yeah, I got... I'm with you, coach.

810
00:55:21,651 --> 00:55:24,029
Good. That's why it's important
that I alone

811
00:55:24,112 --> 00:55:26,990
handle the recruiting process
from here on out. Okay?

812
00:55:27,824 --> 00:55:30,493
Cool. Um, can I keep my first letter?

813
00:55:31,453 --> 00:55:32,453
Sure.

814
00:55:52,557 --> 00:55:54,434
You know they were recruiting you?

815
00:55:54,517 --> 00:55:57,062
Yeah, I knew.
Bro, this close to Signing Day,

816
00:55:57,145 --> 00:56:00,482
do you think I wouldn't know
who was offering me a scholarship?

817
00:56:01,608 --> 00:56:03,193
I was just trying to help.

818
00:56:06,196 --> 00:56:07,196
Hey, yo.

819
00:56:08,198 --> 00:56:09,783
T, look...

820
00:56:13,912 --> 00:56:18,541
Yo, for all that shit
that I been talking... [sighs] my bad.

821
00:56:19,375 --> 00:56:21,544
For real.
I was just hot because coach...

822
00:56:22,337 --> 00:56:24,881
He kicked out my homey
to make room for you.

823
00:56:24,964 --> 00:56:28,635
- What? He said there was a open spot.
- They call it "overbooking."

824
00:56:28,718 --> 00:56:30,428
Not enough seats on the flight.

825
00:56:31,679 --> 00:56:35,058
- So, it's all right I'm running point?
- I'm a scorer, bro.

826
00:56:35,475 --> 00:56:37,852
- My averages are up with you feeding me.
- [chuckles]

827
00:56:38,269 --> 00:56:41,564
All right. Hey, yo.
Why didn't coach show you those?

828
00:56:42,148 --> 00:56:44,859
He don't want me to go to State.
He wants me to go to Tech.

829
00:56:45,151 --> 00:56:47,362
- Where you gonna go?
- I'll go to State.

830
00:56:47,445 --> 00:56:50,907
It's a better school. I'm tired of
wearing blue. I look better in red.

831
00:56:50,990 --> 00:56:52,117
[both laughing]

832
00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:53,827
Yo, good looking out.

833
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:58,400
Wow. I'm really excited to be here, you
know. This has always been a dream of mine.

834
00:57:00,583 --> 00:57:02,794
I'd like to thank my coach
and teammates,

835
00:57:02,877 --> 00:57:05,421
because without them,
I wouldn't be here today.

836
00:57:05,964 --> 00:57:10,927
But I'm excited to say that in the fall,
I will be attending...

837
00:57:13,847 --> 00:57:14,847
Tech.

838
00:57:15,390 --> 00:57:16,558
[crowd applauding]

839
00:57:25,024 --> 00:57:26,109
[grunting]

840
00:57:27,902 --> 00:57:30,071
What happened to looking better in red?

841
00:57:30,697 --> 00:57:33,700
Changed my mind.
Get more playing time over at Tech.

842
00:57:34,617 --> 00:57:35,994
Coach was pretty into it.

843
00:57:36,286 --> 00:57:38,997
Man, he the main one
who wanted me to go to State.

844
00:57:39,664 --> 00:57:42,917
Then we get a sponsor
and he talking about Tech, Tech, Tech.

845
00:57:43,001 --> 00:57:44,127
Why?

846
00:57:44,794 --> 00:57:45,837
Pfft.

847
00:57:46,921 --> 00:57:50,425
Bro, they ain't sponsoring us
so we can wear a logo right now.

848
00:57:51,259 --> 00:57:54,888
They want coach to steer us to colleges
that are on-brand.

849
00:57:54,971 --> 00:57:58,308
That way we on TV repping them
during March Madness, you dig?

850
00:57:58,933 --> 00:58:02,645
Hey, come on, man. Push, push.
What you think they paying coach for?

851
00:58:02,729 --> 00:58:05,648
I don't know.
He said they was giving him product.

852
00:58:06,608 --> 00:58:09,545
He's not gonna be your coach no more,
so why didn't you go to the better school

853
00:58:09,569 --> 00:58:12,238
- like you said you was gonna go to?
- I got you.

854
00:58:13,072 --> 00:58:14,072
[grunts]

855
00:58:14,866 --> 00:58:17,327
Look, we don't play for coach.

856
00:58:17,410 --> 00:58:20,121
We don't play for college,
don't play for the NBA,

857
00:58:20,205 --> 00:58:23,750
shit, we don't even play for the U.S.
We play for the brands.

858
00:58:25,585 --> 00:58:28,880
No, I'm serious. They the ones
that will pay us the most.

859
00:58:29,589 --> 00:58:30,589
All right?

860
00:58:31,007 --> 00:58:32,008
All right.

861
00:58:32,091 --> 00:58:33,091
All right.

862
00:58:33,468 --> 00:58:34,468
Thanks, bro.

863
00:58:45,146 --> 00:58:46,940
So, where your pops at?

864
00:58:47,482 --> 00:58:50,193
Yo, coach got him on the road,
scouting and stuff.

865
00:58:50,276 --> 00:58:52,570
- All right, y'all.
- Wait, where you going?

866
00:58:52,654 --> 00:58:55,198
Gotta hit these books.
We got finals coming up.

867
00:58:55,281 --> 00:58:58,785
But we have tournament coming up.
We need to get extra shots up.

868
00:58:58,868 --> 00:59:03,331
I need my eligibility, I really can't
risk it right now with my offer to Tech.

869
00:59:03,414 --> 00:59:05,333
I ain't been to class in a week.

870
00:59:05,416 --> 00:59:07,210
- All right, man.
- [Anton] All right, bro.

871
00:59:10,171 --> 00:59:13,466
[Nia over phone]
You know, I have to ask, are these real?

872
00:59:14,425 --> 00:59:16,719
Did you really get a B on your math quiz?

873
00:59:17,804 --> 00:59:19,389
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I got a B.

874
00:59:33,778 --> 00:59:38,491
And the sides that make up
and form the right angle

875
00:59:38,575 --> 00:59:40,243
are called legs.

876
00:59:42,704 --> 00:59:44,706
[Terron] Can I change my class schedule?

877
00:59:44,789 --> 00:59:48,376
I can't do class and practice.
I can't do both at the same time.

878
00:59:48,459 --> 00:59:50,920
You're in classes
the NCAA says to take

879
00:59:51,004 --> 00:59:54,340
to qualify for a scholarship.
And I can't change that, sorry.

880
00:59:55,174 --> 00:59:59,429
You can't be missing any workouts
and practices right now, you understand?

881
00:59:59,512 --> 01:00:01,347
- Not one.
- Yeah.

882
01:00:02,348 --> 01:00:04,726
We got the invitational
in less than a week.

883
01:00:07,937 --> 01:00:09,939
[Petrus] Who are we playing
in the tournament?

884
01:00:10,023 --> 01:00:11,941
Number one team in the nation.

885
01:00:12,358 --> 01:00:13,860
Victory Country Day.

886
01:00:14,944 --> 01:00:15,944
Yeah, I know.

887
01:00:16,821 --> 01:00:19,824
They got a hell of a lot more talent
than us. They do.

888
01:00:20,783 --> 01:00:23,453
We're gonna have to outwork them.
Win every 50-50

889
01:00:23,536 --> 01:00:25,663
and we need to hit the floor hard.

890
01:00:25,747 --> 01:00:29,542
[Curtis] Let's go, come on.
I wanna see some hustle, on the whistle.

891
01:00:29,626 --> 01:00:30,501
[whistle blows]

892
01:00:30,585 --> 01:00:33,129
On the whistle, let's go.
Get it. Get it.

893
01:00:33,212 --> 01:00:35,923
Hustle. Come on, now.
Fight for it. Fight for it.

894
01:00:36,007 --> 01:00:39,302
That's what I wanna see.
Let's go, Forte. [whistle blows]

895
01:00:39,385 --> 01:00:41,512
On the ball. Let's go. Get it.

896
01:00:43,848 --> 01:00:45,558
[Olembe screaming]

897
01:00:46,059 --> 01:00:48,269
[Curtis]
Hold on, hold on. You all right, Terron?

898
01:00:48,353 --> 01:00:49,437
Come on. Come on.

899
01:00:49,854 --> 01:00:51,230
Lem. Lem. Lem.

900
01:00:51,522 --> 01:00:52,815
Lem, calm down.

901
01:00:52,899 --> 01:00:54,233
Can you bend it?

902
01:00:54,817 --> 01:00:56,402
- I can't, man. I can't.
- Okay.

903
01:00:59,989 --> 01:01:03,201
[Gaines] No, this is his coach.
Well, I am his family here.

904
01:01:04,202 --> 01:01:05,244
I understand.

905
01:01:07,413 --> 01:01:08,915
Coach, is he gonna be okay?

906
01:01:11,334 --> 01:01:12,669
He'll be okay.

907
01:01:33,523 --> 01:01:35,692
Well, damn, boy, your ass was out cold.

908
01:01:37,193 --> 01:01:38,193
Yeah, I know.

909
01:01:41,531 --> 01:01:43,074
What's all these bags for?

910
01:01:44,701 --> 01:01:48,496
Well, this is how I got it figured,
so I know where everything is at.

911
01:01:49,205 --> 01:01:50,915
When did you start doing this?

912
01:01:51,958 --> 01:01:55,128
I ain't got your mom around
to keep track of my shit so...

913
01:01:55,211 --> 01:01:56,587
[knocking on door]

914
01:01:57,171 --> 01:01:58,297
[Gaines] Room service.

915
01:01:59,424 --> 01:02:03,553
Good. You got 30 minutes to get in
that meeting room and finish your exam.

916
01:02:03,928 --> 01:02:06,723
We'll watch film on Victory
and go over the plan.

917
01:02:06,806 --> 01:02:10,518
Uh, I drew up some new plays for my son.
Nobody know his game like me.

918
01:02:10,601 --> 01:02:12,437
I'd love to talk to you about it.

919
01:02:13,396 --> 01:02:16,190
Let me think about it.
Hustle up, Terron. Let's go.

920
01:02:26,617 --> 01:02:30,955
If you got a travel exception and you're
taking an online equivalent, check it.

921
01:02:31,038 --> 01:02:34,333
If your class has a written test,
we have aides here.

922
01:02:34,417 --> 01:02:37,503
And if we don't have a key, I can help.

923
01:02:44,802 --> 01:02:46,971
[boy 1] Hey.
Who's got the key for pre-calc?

924
01:02:47,555 --> 01:02:48,848
[boy 2] A.J. has it next.

925
01:02:52,101 --> 01:02:53,269
This all I know.

926
01:02:57,023 --> 01:02:59,400
- [Proctor] You only wrote your name.
- This all I know.

927
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:03,780
[sighs]

928
01:03:08,576 --> 01:03:09,576
[door opens]

929
01:03:19,003 --> 01:03:21,714
It looked like that kid
was feeding them answers.

930
01:03:21,798 --> 01:03:23,800
Some kids need more tutoring
than others.

931
01:03:23,883 --> 01:03:26,886
You promised that he was gonna get
a college education.

932
01:03:26,969 --> 01:03:29,263
I promised he'd get
a college scholarship,

933
01:03:29,347 --> 01:03:31,933
and he's going to.
That is what this is about.

934
01:03:32,016 --> 01:03:34,685
[Nia] It's about having a route
to a better opportunity

935
01:03:34,769 --> 01:03:36,604
than what we'd be able to afford.

936
01:03:36,687 --> 01:03:39,190
Of course.
Think college will be different?

937
01:03:39,273 --> 01:03:41,502
Terron's gonna have 60 hours a week
of athletic commitments.

938
01:03:41,526 --> 01:03:44,111
They'll push him to no-show classes
and if he keeps growing,

939
01:03:44,195 --> 01:03:46,280
he won't even be an upperclassman.

940
01:03:46,364 --> 01:03:48,324
If he gets a scholarship,
he'll get a degree.

941
01:03:48,407 --> 01:03:51,202
Don't even try to tell me
that that's not valuable.

942
01:03:51,285 --> 01:03:53,621
If your son is the player I believe he is,

943
01:03:53,704 --> 01:03:56,999
he's gonna be making millions of dollars
while he's a teenager.

944
01:03:57,083 --> 01:04:00,962
Now, I'm sorry, but to me, that's
more valuable than a piece of paper.

945
01:04:01,546 --> 01:04:02,588
That's not right.

946
01:04:03,214 --> 01:04:07,552
What's not right is he's the reason this
exists and he can't be paid one dollar.

947
01:04:09,470 --> 01:04:12,431
TV rights go for billions
on the back of the players.

948
01:04:12,515 --> 01:04:16,269
The money he brings in allows for
trust-fund babies to play lacrosse,

949
01:04:16,352 --> 01:04:18,062
but he can't see a dime of it?

950
01:04:18,479 --> 01:04:21,732
Okay, Terron,
the part that he's leaving out,

951
01:04:22,567 --> 01:04:26,612
is what if you don't make it? Then what?
What do you think he's gonna do?

952
01:04:26,696 --> 01:04:29,115
He's just gonna move on to the next one.

953
01:04:30,992 --> 01:04:32,410
LeBron, Kobe.

954
01:04:33,536 --> 01:04:35,204
They all focused on one thing.

955
01:04:36,289 --> 01:04:37,582
So did your father.

956
01:05:10,323 --> 01:05:11,324
Dang.

957
01:05:17,788 --> 01:05:19,248
[sighs] Wow.

958
01:05:26,422 --> 01:05:28,341
Oh, snap. Yo, I know you.

959
01:05:28,424 --> 01:05:29,675
- Hey.
- Can we get a pic?

960
01:05:29,759 --> 01:05:31,677
Yeah, yeah. I'll take a pic.

961
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:34,680
- Make me look good in it.
- Got you.

962
01:05:35,765 --> 01:05:39,393
- You have a game today?
- I play for the same coach you played for.

963
01:05:39,477 --> 01:05:41,771
- Oh, really. Who's that?
- Gaines.

964
01:05:42,563 --> 01:05:45,107
Oh, Coach Gaines.
Yeah, you know what?

965
01:05:45,191 --> 01:05:48,611
He knows the game.
I only played with him for a little bit.

966
01:05:48,694 --> 01:05:50,446
- A little bit?
- Yeah. One season.

967
01:05:50,529 --> 01:05:54,158
- Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
- Yeah, I understand.

968
01:05:54,533 --> 01:05:57,536
I am so glad you're in town for this.
You need tickets?

969
01:05:58,871 --> 01:06:01,540
- How you doing, superstar?
- [man] I'm doing great, man.

970
01:06:01,624 --> 01:06:03,000
Hey. Put one of these on.

971
01:06:03,084 --> 01:06:04,710
- For old times' sake.
- [man] Come on.

972
01:06:04,794 --> 01:06:07,463
- Come on. You know I keep one.
- [Rob] See? Team spirit.

973
01:06:07,546 --> 01:06:08,798
[man] That's nice.

974
01:06:08,881 --> 01:06:10,383
[Rob] I'll see you out there.

975
01:06:12,718 --> 01:06:16,097
Terron Forte, the eighth-grader.
Love your motor, young fella.

976
01:06:16,180 --> 01:06:17,932
- You've seen me play?
- On video.

977
01:06:18,015 --> 01:06:19,701
- Looking forward to it in person.
- [Vince] Coach.

978
01:06:19,725 --> 01:06:21,268
- Hey, Vince.
- Hey.

979
01:06:21,352 --> 01:06:24,689
You got the mixtape. See the real thing.
His game is serious.

980
01:06:24,772 --> 01:06:26,774
- [Rob] That's what I hear.
- [Vince] Good luck.

981
01:06:35,074 --> 01:06:36,409
[speaking indistinctly]

982
01:06:38,661 --> 01:06:40,621
- Loose ball.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

983
01:06:41,330 --> 01:06:42,665
- Loose ball.
- Go, go, go.

984
01:06:43,249 --> 01:06:44,458
Yes. Yes.

985
01:06:44,542 --> 01:06:45,793
[crowd cheering]

986
01:06:58,347 --> 01:06:59,557
Yeah!

987
01:07:00,016 --> 01:07:02,309
Yeah! Come on. Come on.
Come on.

988
01:07:08,733 --> 01:07:09,984
Huddle up. Huddle up.

989
01:07:10,067 --> 01:07:11,694
- You good?
- I'm good, coach.

990
01:07:12,528 --> 01:07:14,572
Bro, bro. We up by one.

991
01:07:14,697 --> 01:07:17,950
Listen up. We got 11 seconds left,
they got no timeouts.

992
01:07:18,034 --> 01:07:21,162
We don't have any fouls left to give.
One thing we know.

993
01:07:21,245 --> 01:07:23,372
Whoever gets that ball
ain't giving it up.

994
01:07:23,456 --> 01:07:26,125
Double-team and force them
into a contested shot.

995
01:07:26,208 --> 01:07:29,003
- Go. Defense, on three. One, two, three.
- [all] Defense.

996
01:07:33,090 --> 01:07:34,800
I got him, I got him.

997
01:07:41,140 --> 01:07:43,184
[buzzer buzzing, then crowd cheering]

998
01:07:46,062 --> 01:07:47,438
Fuck, man.

999
01:07:51,609 --> 01:07:54,070
Who in their right mind
would wanna do this?

1000
01:07:54,445 --> 01:07:56,238
I hate this job sometimes.

1001
01:07:56,739 --> 01:07:59,033
At least we can play
in the consolation bracket.

1002
01:07:59,116 --> 01:08:01,327
That's true. Hey, you know what?

1003
01:08:01,410 --> 01:08:03,829
Watching you out there
makes it all worth it.

1004
01:08:03,913 --> 01:08:06,624
- Thanks, coach.
- [Rob] Way to keep it close, Jimmy.

1005
01:08:06,707 --> 01:08:10,336
- Terron, you are better in person.
- Stay away from my player, Rob.

1006
01:08:10,419 --> 01:08:12,630
Talk to mine.
I got no problem with that.

1007
01:08:12,713 --> 01:08:16,383
- Just get in your van and get out of here.
- Van? We've got a bus.

1008
01:08:16,467 --> 01:08:17,301
[Gaines chuckles]

1009
01:08:17,384 --> 01:08:20,304
Hey, Vince.
There's a proud papa.

1010
01:08:20,387 --> 01:08:21,472
We gotta talk.

1011
01:08:21,555 --> 01:08:22,890
[Vince] What was you thinking?

1012
01:08:22,973 --> 01:08:25,768
- Stay the fuck away from my player!
- Easy, easy.

1013
01:08:25,851 --> 01:08:27,978
- The fuck didn't you understand?
- Easy.

1014
01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:30,689
- Chill.
- Oh, fuck this.

1015
01:08:32,108 --> 01:08:33,692
Should've won that game, man.

1016
01:08:34,485 --> 01:08:36,362
- Shot was bullshit.
- [Anton sighs]

1017
01:08:36,737 --> 01:08:38,322
That was the worst shot ever.

1018
01:08:38,948 --> 01:08:40,116
[Anton] I don't know, bro.

1019
01:08:42,827 --> 01:08:43,827
I'll be back.

1020
01:08:52,878 --> 01:08:56,507
[Gaines] Terron is nationally ranked
because of what I've done for him.

1021
01:09:04,306 --> 01:09:06,809
[Gaines] I gave you a job.
This is how you repay me?

1022
01:09:07,643 --> 01:09:09,895
[Vince] You ain't using him right.
He's a scorer.

1023
01:09:11,313 --> 01:09:13,774
You won't let him get his,
so I found somebody who will.

1024
01:09:14,233 --> 01:09:16,527
[Gaines] What are you doing
meeting with him, Vince?

1025
01:09:16,610 --> 01:09:20,614
[Vince] When the number one team comes
calling, I listen to what they gotta say.

1026
01:09:20,698 --> 01:09:24,118
Well, whatever that dirt bag
told you is bullshit. Trust me.

1027
01:09:24,201 --> 01:09:25,995
He won't get any playing time.

1028
01:09:26,078 --> 01:09:28,289
It's my son.
I ain't gotta listen to you.

1029
01:09:28,372 --> 01:09:31,167
Actually, you do have to listen to me,
Vince.

1030
01:09:31,250 --> 01:09:33,252
Do you realize how involved you are?

1031
01:09:33,711 --> 01:09:35,296
The fuck are you talking about?

1032
01:09:35,379 --> 01:09:39,379
Did you forget we paid you to bring your son here?
Scholarship wasn't enough? You basically sold him.

1033
01:09:41,927 --> 01:09:43,971
[Vince] You were the motherfucker
that paid me.

1034
01:09:44,054 --> 01:09:45,389
[Gaines] No. Byron paid you.

1035
01:09:45,472 --> 01:09:47,808
Money left his account,
ended up in yours.

1036
01:09:47,892 --> 01:09:52,354
So, all your travel expenses, the receipts
for Terron's phone and his jewelry?

1037
01:09:52,438 --> 01:09:55,858
You know what, Vince?
It's all improper benefits, all illegal.

1038
01:09:55,941 --> 01:09:58,152
You try to move your son
from my program,

1039
01:09:58,235 --> 01:10:02,198
- I'll make sure Byron tells everything.
- Think I give a fuck about that?

1040
01:10:02,823 --> 01:10:08,495
You should, Vince. Once it's out he's been
paid to play, he's no longer an amateur.

1041
01:10:09,788 --> 01:10:13,083
So, he's not going anywhere.
But you're done here.

1042
01:10:14,210 --> 01:10:17,379
[Vince] You think after this, I'm gonna
keep him playing for your ass?

1043
01:10:18,047 --> 01:10:20,132
[Gaines] Don't get in the way
of what we build.

1044
01:10:20,799 --> 01:10:22,176
[sighs]

1045
01:10:28,682 --> 01:10:30,601
[line rings]

1046
01:10:32,728 --> 01:10:34,897
[Nia] Hey, I'm in the stands.
Where are you?

1047
01:10:34,980 --> 01:10:38,567
I'm downstairs. I think
I just did something really stupid.

1048
01:10:38,651 --> 01:10:40,527
- I'll be right there.
- All right.

1049
01:10:46,700 --> 01:10:47,868
[sighs]

1050
01:11:25,572 --> 01:11:26,572
Come on.

1051
01:11:28,409 --> 01:11:32,371
- Let's go, son.
- Why are you trying to fuck everything up?

1052
01:11:33,247 --> 01:11:36,208
- Excuse you?
- Go. Just go.

1053
01:11:36,292 --> 01:11:37,501
Boy, I will f...

1054
01:11:45,759 --> 01:11:49,179
- I'm sorry that...
- You trying to take the game away from me?

1055
01:11:49,263 --> 01:11:50,931
No. No, I would never do that.

1056
01:11:54,143 --> 01:11:56,520
- How much did you hear?
- I heard everything.

1057
01:11:57,813 --> 01:11:58,814
[Gaines sighs]

1058
01:11:58,897 --> 01:12:02,651
- I'm sorry. Let's forget this happened.
- We can't. I recorded it all.

1059
01:12:03,193 --> 01:12:04,403
You recorded it?

1060
01:12:06,196 --> 01:12:07,197
Well, delete it.

1061
01:12:08,115 --> 01:12:10,868
I did. But it was live,
so it already got views.

1062
01:12:12,953 --> 01:12:15,122
Jesus, Terron.
You shouldn't have done that.

1063
01:12:15,205 --> 01:12:17,458
Recruiting violations
hurt the player most.

1064
01:12:17,541 --> 01:12:19,460
If that gets out, that'd be bad.

1065
01:12:19,918 --> 01:12:22,004
You could lose your eligibility to play.

1066
01:12:22,963 --> 01:12:25,382
You'll be off the team
and I could be out of coaching.

1067
01:12:26,759 --> 01:12:29,845
If anybody saved that,
you don't know how fucked we are.

1068
01:12:31,513 --> 01:12:32,598
[Gaines sighs]

1069
01:12:33,390 --> 01:12:34,558
Oh, damn.

1070
01:12:38,270 --> 01:12:39,938
Hey. What happened?

1071
01:12:41,231 --> 01:12:42,231
I don't know.

1072
01:12:53,077 --> 01:12:56,789
Yeah, well, whatever that dirt bag
told you is bullshit, trust me.

1073
01:12:56,872 --> 01:13:00,084
- He won't get playing time.
- I ain't gotta listen to you.

1074
01:13:00,167 --> 01:13:01,919
You do have to listen to me, Vince.

1075
01:13:02,836 --> 01:13:04,505
You realize how involved you are?

1076
01:13:04,588 --> 01:13:07,257
Did you forget that we paid you money
to bring your son here?

1077
01:13:07,341 --> 01:13:08,550
Did you forget that?

1078
01:13:08,634 --> 01:13:13,347
Byron paid you. Money left his
bank account, ended up in yours.

1079
01:13:13,931 --> 01:13:16,683
Scholarship wasn't enough?
You basically sold him.

1080
01:13:16,767 --> 01:13:18,519
You were the mother****** that paid me.

1081
01:13:18,602 --> 01:13:21,730
- Think I give a fuck about that?
- You should, Vince.

1082
01:13:21,980 --> 01:13:25,692
Once it's out he's been paid to play,
he's no longer an amateur.

1083
01:13:32,783 --> 01:13:37,079
[Doug] So, the idea with any equation
in algebra is the idea of equality.

1084
01:13:37,538 --> 01:13:39,164
It's why it's called an equation.

1085
01:13:39,248 --> 01:13:41,048
Whatever happens on one side
of the equal sign

1086
01:13:41,083 --> 01:13:42,709
has to happen on the other.

1087
01:13:43,836 --> 01:13:45,421
[crowd cheering]

1088
01:14:20,747 --> 01:14:23,959
Well, I ain't on the court either,
so that makes two of us.

1089
01:14:25,210 --> 01:14:27,588
Yo, bro. You gonna be all right?

1090
01:14:28,297 --> 01:14:32,092
They say yes,
but I have no health insurance.

1091
01:14:33,010 --> 01:14:36,513
- So, then, what can you do?
- Time to get job.

1092
01:14:36,597 --> 01:14:40,017
I not gonna pretend I'm student no more.
I'm 24 years old.

1093
01:14:41,101 --> 01:14:43,812
Twenty-four years old? I knew it.

1094
01:14:45,731 --> 01:14:51,153
Hey. We no have no birth certificate,
so I say I'm 18 so I get student visa.

1095
01:14:52,154 --> 01:14:57,075
- So, then what are you gonna do now?
- When I recover, I play international.

1096
01:14:59,536 --> 01:15:04,750
To Latvia. I no know it,
but I ask coach, he found me team.

1097
01:15:05,667 --> 01:15:06,667
Hmm.

1098
01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:09,963
So, what about you, Terron?
What are you going to do?

1099
01:15:24,811 --> 01:15:27,147
- What you got there, boy?
- Bills.

1100
01:15:28,607 --> 01:15:29,607
Give them here.

1101
01:15:30,359 --> 01:15:31,652
Boy, stop playing.

1102
01:15:32,611 --> 01:15:35,614
What you gonna do?
You can't even pay them right now.

1103
01:15:36,782 --> 01:15:38,158
You gonna sell me again?

1104
01:15:46,375 --> 01:15:48,168
Never even got a dollar for playing.

1105
01:15:49,795 --> 01:15:50,963
Even for all of this.

1106
01:15:55,509 --> 01:15:57,886
That's why I did what I did, boy.

1107
01:15:59,137 --> 01:16:01,306
Just trying to take care of this family.

1108
01:16:04,810 --> 01:16:05,936
You understand?

1109
01:16:26,707 --> 01:16:29,084
So, Ma. How much this cost?

1110
01:16:30,419 --> 01:16:32,254
- What?
- The house.

1111
01:16:33,422 --> 01:16:36,216
Well, that's not something
for you to worry about.

1112
01:16:36,300 --> 01:16:38,594
I'm trying to work something out.
Come on.

1113
01:16:38,927 --> 01:16:39,928
[chuckles]

1114
01:16:40,929 --> 01:16:42,764
Ma, it's a math problem. Come on.

1115
01:16:45,058 --> 01:16:47,603
How much should I put in
for my college amount?

1116
01:16:47,686 --> 01:16:49,896
Well, you could still go on scholarship.

1117
01:16:50,897 --> 01:16:54,776
Yeah, I just put in the same
as your loans, but what about Dad?

1118
01:16:54,860 --> 01:16:55,861
[Nia] What about him?

1119
01:16:56,445 --> 01:16:59,197
[Terron] Prescriptions and stuff.
How much do they cost?

1120
01:16:59,281 --> 01:17:02,367
[Nia] Well, that depends on
if you have insurance...

1121
01:17:02,909 --> 01:17:03,994
Yeah, true.

1122
01:17:05,912 --> 01:17:06,955
But we don't.

1123
01:17:07,289 --> 01:17:09,916
So, we need money for that,
on top of all this.

1124
01:17:23,930 --> 01:17:27,643
I don't know, Ma.
It's not making any sense.

1125
01:17:27,726 --> 01:17:30,062
Like, the numbers aren't making any sense.

1126
01:17:31,146 --> 01:17:34,691
Well, why did you record that class
on your phone?

1127
01:17:35,400 --> 01:17:38,028
How'd you get the direction
of your play calls right?

1128
01:17:39,279 --> 01:17:42,658
I don't know. I guess I just find a way
to work around things.

1129
01:17:44,242 --> 01:17:47,245
Well, what can we use
to work around these things?

1130
01:17:47,746 --> 01:17:48,955
College.

1131
01:17:51,124 --> 01:17:52,501
Coach.

1132
01:17:54,836 --> 01:17:55,879
The brand.

1133
01:17:58,340 --> 01:17:59,466
Gaines.

1134
01:17:59,549 --> 01:18:00,759
Coach Gaines.

1135
01:18:20,028 --> 01:18:21,822
[Gaines] Motherfucker.

1136
01:18:21,905 --> 01:18:23,323
[Gaines groans]

1137
01:18:29,913 --> 01:18:31,665
What are you doing here, Terron?

1138
01:18:33,750 --> 01:18:34,793
You were right.

1139
01:18:35,293 --> 01:18:38,380
I lost my eligibility,
so now I can't even play for my old team.

1140
01:18:38,964 --> 01:18:41,466
But people are saying
you paid players before.

1141
01:18:41,550 --> 01:18:43,844
This isn't the first time. Is that true?

1142
01:18:44,302 --> 01:18:45,345
Yeah, it's true.

1143
01:18:46,179 --> 01:18:50,183
You have to. You can't compete in
this game if you don't do that, Terron.

1144
01:18:52,686 --> 01:18:56,732
I wish these fuckers making the rules
would come meet you and your family.

1145
01:18:57,774 --> 01:19:00,527
And then try to tell me
I shouldn't help you out.

1146
01:19:00,819 --> 01:19:04,030
The thing's rigged against
the people it should be helping.

1147
01:19:04,573 --> 01:19:07,409
You didn't have to be like that
with my dad, though.

1148
01:19:07,784 --> 01:19:08,952
I'm sorry about that.

1149
01:19:10,078 --> 01:19:12,372
No way I'd let you play for that scumbag.

1150
01:19:12,914 --> 01:19:15,959
- They call him Coach Midnight.
- Why do they call him that?

1151
01:19:16,042 --> 01:19:19,004
He steals people's players
in the middle of the night.

1152
01:19:19,463 --> 01:19:21,757
- Ain't that what you did with me?
- No.

1153
01:19:22,299 --> 01:19:25,218
I met you at a reasonable hour.
It was, like, 8 p.m.

1154
01:19:26,428 --> 01:19:29,473
So, in that case, I guess
you're like Coach Dinnertime.

1155
01:19:29,848 --> 01:19:31,516
[both laughing]

1156
01:19:31,600 --> 01:19:33,018
Yeah, I guess.

1157
01:19:33,101 --> 01:19:35,896
Well, I'm not Coach Anything
at the moment, am I?

1158
01:19:41,735 --> 01:19:44,654
I'm sorry you had to lose your job
like that, coach.

1159
01:19:46,114 --> 01:19:51,203
- At least you're here with the fam, huh?
- Yeah. Yeah, it's great. It's great.

1160
01:19:51,286 --> 01:19:54,539
How's school? I hear Liberty's
playing you guys pretty soon.

1161
01:19:54,623 --> 01:19:57,501
- They gonna let you on the court?
- No.

1162
01:19:58,251 --> 01:20:01,213
- They gonna let you coach?
- Nobody would touch me now.

1163
01:20:03,089 --> 01:20:05,008
That means you need a job, right?

1164
01:20:05,091 --> 01:20:06,092
[chuckles]

1165
01:20:07,010 --> 01:20:08,136
You got something?

1166
01:20:14,309 --> 01:20:15,309
What?

1167
01:20:18,522 --> 01:20:19,522
What?

1168
01:20:20,649 --> 01:20:23,193
What's up,
I know I haven't posted in a minute.

1169
01:20:23,276 --> 01:20:25,320
I'm on my way to a meeting right now.

1170
01:20:26,696 --> 01:20:29,491
Gonna talk about my idea,
somewhere, all the way up there.

1171
01:20:29,574 --> 01:20:33,787
On my way to meet with my coach. He got
a few people with me to connect with.

1172
01:20:33,870 --> 01:20:37,290
I don't know if it's gonna work.
Trying to connect the pieces.

1173
01:20:38,250 --> 01:20:41,962
Been taking a bunch more meetings.
So, I guess my idea's not crazy.

1174
01:20:42,629 --> 01:20:44,798
I can't tell you guys
anything about it.

1175
01:20:46,842 --> 01:20:50,720
That's all y'all can see now.
But you guys will see in the future.

1176
01:20:53,265 --> 01:20:55,016
The Liberty boys pulling up.

1177
01:20:55,308 --> 01:20:58,979
Long time in the van.
Haven't seen these guys in a minute.

1178
01:20:59,062 --> 01:21:01,606
Ah, Coach Curtis. [chuckles]

1179
01:21:02,858 --> 01:21:03,900
Are you serious?

1180
01:21:05,193 --> 01:21:08,989
Terron, didn't you learn your lesson?
You might wanna turn that thing off.

1181
01:21:09,489 --> 01:21:11,116
[Terron] Hey, yeah, you right, coach.

1182
01:21:12,826 --> 01:21:15,203
Hey, T. It's crazy in there.

1183
01:21:15,287 --> 01:21:17,789
Everybody wants to see you play
your old team.

1184
01:21:20,500 --> 01:21:22,878
Oh, coach. You got my old jersey, right?

1185
01:21:22,961 --> 01:21:25,672
I know you wanna play,
but you can't with the investigation.

1186
01:21:25,755 --> 01:21:29,509
You gotta let me play Liberty.
I got a plan. The team is onboard.

1187
01:21:30,427 --> 01:21:33,805
- I'm not gonna like this, am I?
- We're never gonna beat them.

1188
01:21:33,889 --> 01:21:36,433
If I play, the forfeit
counts as a loss, right?

1189
01:21:36,516 --> 01:21:38,560
So, if we're gonna lose, let me play.

1190
01:21:39,561 --> 01:21:42,230
Have my jersey ready.
I gotta take care of something.

1191
01:21:48,862 --> 01:21:51,031
Oh, there you are. Let's go.

1192
01:21:54,075 --> 01:21:55,076
Come on.

1193
01:21:58,038 --> 01:22:00,916
- Yo, what the fuck is he doing here?
- [Terron] Dad, chill.

1194
01:22:00,999 --> 01:22:03,251
- Terron.
- Ma, trust me. Come on.

1195
01:22:04,711 --> 01:22:05,711
Coach.

1196
01:22:06,046 --> 01:22:08,131
[Gaines] Listen, Vince, Nia.

1197
01:22:08,214 --> 01:22:10,884
I know I'm the last person
you expected to see,

1198
01:22:10,967 --> 01:22:14,137
but I'm here because your son
is about to change the game.

1199
01:22:14,304 --> 01:22:17,098
Why don't you explain it to them.
It was your idea.

1200
01:22:17,307 --> 01:22:18,892
I'm giving up my amateur status,

1201
01:22:19,684 --> 01:22:22,062
renouncing my high school
and college eligibility.

1202
01:22:22,145 --> 01:22:24,648
Coach is gonna be my agent,
we're doing an endorsement deal.

1203
01:22:24,731 --> 01:22:26,816
- I'm going pro.
- Say what?

1204
01:22:27,484 --> 01:22:29,653
Terron, if he's pushing you,
you don't...

1205
01:22:29,736 --> 01:22:34,324
- No, Ma. This is my plan. All my plan.
- Has anyone ever done this before?

1206
01:22:34,407 --> 01:22:37,994
They do it in tennis, golf and gymnastics,
but not basketball.

1207
01:22:38,578 --> 01:22:41,456
Terron's gonna be the first one
to do it in the U.S.

1208
01:22:41,539 --> 01:22:44,960
- The first.
- But where has anyone gone pro at his age?

1209
01:22:45,043 --> 01:22:47,879
Overseas.
Players like Ricky Rubio and Tony Parker

1210
01:22:47,963 --> 01:22:51,091
signed their first contracts
when they were Terron's age.

1211
01:22:51,174 --> 01:22:54,594
- That's why I'm going international, Ma.
- Whoa, whoa, overseas?

1212
01:22:54,678 --> 01:22:57,973
Other countries don't have
the same restrictions we do here.

1213
01:22:58,056 --> 01:23:00,725
And that allows the players
to work year-round

1214
01:23:00,809 --> 01:23:05,105
and get paid, instead of limiting training
by making them play for free.

1215
01:23:05,188 --> 01:23:09,526
We wanna take that advantage to Terron
when he's old enough to play in the NBA.

1216
01:23:09,609 --> 01:23:11,194
Show them the deal, coach.

1217
01:23:11,277 --> 01:23:14,155
Ma, the brands even had
a bidding war. That's crazy.

1218
01:23:14,239 --> 01:23:17,575
It's true.
We received multiple endorsement offers.

1219
01:23:17,659 --> 01:23:22,163
But this is by far the best one.
It's a multi-year deal, as you can see,

1220
01:23:22,247 --> 01:23:24,791
it comes with a significant signing bonus.

1221
01:23:24,874 --> 01:23:27,669
- They've even got this for us.
- [chuckles] It's true.

1222
01:23:27,752 --> 01:23:31,840
They wanna fly us to their headquarters
to make the presentation face-to-face.

1223
01:23:32,799 --> 01:23:36,678
They see your son as a potential
superstar, and not just on the court.

1224
01:23:36,761 --> 01:23:41,516
No, they are eager to tap into his
growing social-media presence as well.

1225
01:23:41,599 --> 01:23:44,853
- Why the fuck should we trust you?
- Dad. It's not like that.

1226
01:23:44,936 --> 01:23:48,023
Listen, I know I've made some mistakes.
I own that.

1227
01:23:48,106 --> 01:23:52,318
But I've always done what I thought
is best for Terron, and that stands here.

1228
01:23:54,154 --> 01:23:56,948
- Where's my son gonna live?
- Dad, what do you mean?

1229
01:23:57,032 --> 01:23:59,784
I'm doing this so we can stay together.
All of us.

1230
01:23:59,868 --> 01:24:02,454
- Then what about school?
- [Terron] You can do that.

1231
01:24:02,537 --> 01:24:04,706
You're the best teacher in the world.
Homeschool me.

1232
01:24:04,789 --> 01:24:09,627
You wouldn't even have to work, Ma.
And neither do you, Dad. I got us.

1233
01:24:11,087 --> 01:24:14,966
- T, what if you get hurt?
- I thought about that already.

1234
01:24:15,050 --> 01:24:17,927
- Tell them about the insurance.
- When he signs a pro contract,

1235
01:24:18,011 --> 01:24:20,055
we take out an insurance policy.

1236
01:24:20,138 --> 01:24:22,474
If he gets injured or anything happens...

1237
01:24:22,557 --> 01:24:24,934
The family's taken care of.
Now do you see?

1238
01:24:29,272 --> 01:24:30,315
Is it enough?

1239
01:24:31,149 --> 01:24:32,149
Uh...

1240
01:24:32,525 --> 01:24:34,778
Baby, it's more than enough.

1241
01:24:35,945 --> 01:24:38,990
[Terron] Okay, good.
We can take a trip together.

1242
01:24:39,074 --> 01:24:42,285
You look through all the numbers.
I got a game to play.

1243
01:24:48,416 --> 01:24:50,543
[crowd cheering]

1244
01:25:35,004 --> 01:25:37,006
There's a problem with your plan.

1245
01:25:37,590 --> 01:25:40,718
If you play, it's not an official game.

1246
01:25:40,802 --> 01:25:43,680
I was set to forfeit
so you could be out there,

1247
01:25:43,763 --> 01:25:46,850
but they won't let me use the gym
for a non-official game.

1248
01:25:48,476 --> 01:25:50,395
- More red tape.
- More red tape.

1249
01:25:53,439 --> 01:25:54,440
I got this.

1250
01:26:08,538 --> 01:26:10,874
Um, so, I can't play tonight...

1251
01:26:11,499 --> 01:26:13,793
[crowd booing]

1252
01:26:19,090 --> 01:26:23,011
The rules say
that I'm ineligible to play, so...

1253
01:26:23,094 --> 01:26:24,721
[crowd booing]

1254
01:26:31,394 --> 01:26:32,937
But I say forget the rules.

1255

[crowd cheering]

1256
01:26:44,073 --> 01:26:46,701
Refs, y'all can go home,
turn off the scoreboard,

1257
01:26:46,784 --> 01:26:49,579
because we can't play in here.
But what we can do...

1258
01:26:49,662 --> 01:26:52,540
We can play out there, right?
Let's go play.

1259
01:26:52,624 --> 01:26:53,708
