Defense!

1476

01:

Ball's come down

to the final possession.

1477

01:
12:47,262 -- 01:12:48,854

Chiefs have the ball, side out,

1478

01:
12:48,931 -- 01:12:50,831

trailing by two.

1479

01:
12:50,899 -- 01:12:53,424

Come on! Come on, baby!

Come on, baby! Come on!

1480

01:
12:57,606 -- 01:12:58,971

[Whistle blows]

1481

01:
12:59,041 -- 01:13:00,440

Here we go.

1482

01:
13:06,048 -- 01:13:07,310

Guard him!

1483

01:
13:17,259 -- 01:13:18,556

[Crowd cheering]

1484

01:
13:18,627 -- 01:13:19,753

- [Buzzer sounds]

- Yeah!

1485

01:
13:23,966 -- 01:13:25,456

Unbelievable!

1486

01:
13:25,534 -- 01:13:27,661

Coach Collins

and the Patriots have made it

1487

01:
13:27,736 -- 01:13:29,135

to the state-championship game!

1488

01:
13:29,204 -- 01:13:30,228

Pay up, baby.

1489

01:
13:31,607 -- 01:13:33,575

We're going to the championship!

1490

01:
13:33,642 -- 01:13:34,904

That's what I'm talking about!

1491

01:
13:34,977 -- 01:13:36,569

Let's tell the whole

goddamn world about this!

1492

01:
13:36,645 -- 01:13:37,907

Hey!

1493

01:
13:37,980 -- 01:13:39,504

Yeah!

1494

01:
13:41,350 -- 01:13:42,317

Yeah.

1495

01:
13:44,052 -- 01:13:45,747

[Rap music playing]

1496

01:
13:45,821 -- 01:13:47,516

[Chattering]

1497

01:
13:51,293 -- 01:13:52,385

What's up, fellas?

1498

01:
13:52,461 -- 01:13:55,521

Final four. Final two.

1499

01:
13:55,597 -- 01:13:57,394

What's happening?

1500

01:
13:57,466 -- 01:14:00,799

- How you doing?

- Congratulations. Congratulations.

1501

01:
14:00,869 -- 01:14:04,032

Doing good. All right?

1502

01:
14:04,106 -- 01:14:05,801

It's quite a turnaround,

1503

01:
14:05,874 -- 01:14:08,104

y'all playing Woodlawn in the finals.

1504

01:
14:08,177 -- 01:14:09,735

Yeah, we...

1505

01:
14:10,879 -- 01:14:12,744

We're finally playing like a team.

1506

01:
14:12,815 -- 01:14:14,282

What about me and you, son?

1507

01:
14:14,349 -- 01:14:15,907

I thought we was a team.

1508

01:
14:15,984 -- 01:14:18,145

- Daddy, you know we still...

- I thought we decided

1509

01:
14:18,220 -- 01:14:22,020

this was going to be your all-star,

all-state year.

1510

01:
14:22,090 -- 01:14:24,115

Daddy, we're winning.

1511

01:
14:24,193 -- 01:14:27,390

Your coach is winning,

getting a lot of ink for himself.

1512

01:
14:27,463 -- 01:14:30,057

You are losing.

1513

01:
14:30,132 -- 01:14:32,157

If your brother was here,

1514

01:
14:32,234 -- 01:14:35,761

we'd own this state

and everything in it.

1515

01:
14:37,072 -- 01:14:39,233

[Bell ringing]

1516

01:
14:42,177 -- 01:14:44,042

Go on and get, boy.

1517

01:
14:44,112 -- 01:14:47,013

Your team is waiting for you.

1518

01:
14:48,116 -- 01:14:50,880

Good luck.

You're on your own.

1519

01:
15:14,810 -- 01:15:16,107

[Door opens]

1520

01:
15:25,621 -- 01:15:28,089

Allen, what you doing here?

1521

01:
15:28,156 -- 01:15:30,750

I canceled practice.

1522

01:
15:44,806 -- 01:15:47,001

You trying to work me, Allen?

1523

01:
15:51,346 -- 01:15:53,644

What about your team, Coach?

1524

01:
15:53,715 -- 01:15:55,740

You're my team.

1525

01:
15:57,452 -- 01:15:59,716

Don't you know that?

Come here.

1526

01:
16:12,534 -- 01:16:15,059

Mr. Randolph.

Mr. Randolph.

1527

01:
16:24,246 -- 01:16:27,215

I just came here

to ask you to come to the game.

1528

01:
16:28,717 -- 01:16:30,184

You know...

1529

01:
16:30,252 -- 01:16:33,983

I know about your son Ray.

1530

01:
16:35,123 -- 01:16:36,784

I'm really sorry for your loss.

1531

01:
16:36,858 -- 01:16:39,122

I coached against him in the AAU.

1532

01:
16:39,194 -- 01:16:40,855

He was on the Louisiana Select team.

1533

01:
16:40,929 -- 01:16:43,625

He went up against mine.

He got 40.

1534

01:
16:43,699 -- 01:16:45,223

He dropped 20 in the semis.

1535

01:
16:45,300 -- 01:16:46,460

42.

1536

01:
16:46,535 -- 01:16:48,662

23.

1537

01:
16:48,737 -- 01:16:49,999

Six blocks.

1538

01:
16:50,072 -- 01:16:52,097

Brian's got that in him, too.

1539

01:
16:53,175 -- 01:16:54,437

I want to help him be all right,

1540

01:
16:54,509 -- 01:16:56,409

but there's only so much I can do.

1541

01:
16:56,478 -- 01:16:59,174

'Cause what the boy needs is you.

1542

01:
17:01,683 -- 01:17:03,082

Get out of here.

1543

01:
17:07,356 -- 01:17:08,414

All right.

1544

01:
17:13,629 -- 01:17:15,790

We'll get Nick with Courtney Wallace.

1545

01:
17:17,366 -- 01:17:18,924

Brian with Spitz.

1546

01:
17:19,001 -- 01:17:20,764

[Reporter speaking on TV]

1547

01:
17:20,836 -- 01:17:22,133

Greg...

1548

01:
17:22,204 -- 01:17:23,637

Reporter:

...in the finals against John Ehret?

1549

01:
17:23,705 -- 01:17:25,866

Brown:

I think our record speaks for itself.

1550

01:
17:25,941 -- 01:17:28,341

I'm blessed with

the greatest player in the nation.

1551

01:
17:28,410 -- 01:17:30,401

Of course, you're referring

to Spencer Walker,

1552

01:
17:30,479 -- 01:17:32,413

who transferred to

number-one ranked Woodlawn

1553

01:
17:32,481 -- 01:17:35,450

from Ehret earlier this year

after Hurricane Katrina.

1554

01:
17:35,517 -- 01:17:39,078

Well, look, I respect the heck out of Ehret

and what they've overcome,

1555

01:
17:39,154 -- 01:17:40,917

but we're not going to

take it easy on them.

1556

01:
17:40,989 -- 01:17:42,354

We are a dominating team.

1557

01:
17:42,424 -- 01:17:43,857

We will dominate this game.

1558

01:
17:43,925 -- 01:17:47,019

I respectfully say

that the fairy tale is over.

1559

01:
17:47,095 -- 01:17:48,357

Thank you, Coach Brown.

Good luck.

1560

01:
17:48,430 -- 01:17:49,522

Thank you.

1561

01:
17:52,501 -- 01:17:54,833

Announcer:

Welcome to the Cajun Dome

1562

01:
17:54,903 -- 01:17:59,806

and the Louisiana High School Basketball

State Championship!

1563

01:
18:13,722 -- 01:18:15,087

Hey, we're sitting here right now

1564

01:
18:15,157 -- 01:18:16,749

with Chris Paul from

the New Orleans Hornets,

1565

01:
18:16,825 -- 01:18:19,123

and of course, Caron Butler with

the Washington Wizards.

1566

01:
18:19,194 -- 01:18:21,890

Chris, I got to ask you, of course

being from a New Orleans team,

1567

01:
18:21,963 -- 01:18:23,726

you've got to be here

tonight supporting

1568

01:
18:23,799 -- 01:18:25,960

the other New Orleans team

on the court tonight,

1569

01:
18:26,034 -- 01:18:27,262

the John Ehret Patriots.

1570

01:
18:27,335 -- 01:18:28,802

Yeah, you know, we had an off-day,

1571

01:
18:28,870 -- 01:18:30,895

so I decided to come out here

and see them play.

1572

01:
18:30,972 -- 01:18:32,371

You know, being here in New Orleans,

1573

01:
18:32,441 -- 01:18:34,636

I wanted to come out,

try to show them some support,

1574

01:
18:34,710 -- 01:18:36,371

so hopefully John Ehret

can come out with the win.

1575

01:
18:37,813 -- 01:18:38,905

This is your moment, fellas.
