Playoff Page #3

The Harwood automatic

was one of his favorites.

He was probably forced

to sell it, at the time.

But I collect new ones.

Have you seen the new digital Seiko?

It just came out.

All you have to do

is press one button,

and voila! It tells you the time

all over the world!

Has the gentleman made up his mind?

I'll take both.

Excellent choice.

If you come across

a Harwood automatic,

you can reach me here.

Fist!

Do it again.

Fist!

Do it again.

Dieter, switch with Thomas.

Thomas.

What are you waiting for?

Fist...

What's wrong with you?

- Why don't you pass better?

Do it again.

Fist.

Thomas is taking it hard.

If Dieter can do it, so can Thomas.

He just doesn't want to.

We can't afford to lose him.

Fist.

Good work, Dieter.

Fist.

You've reached the Stoller family.

Please leave a message

and we'll get back to you.

Blessed are you, Lord our God,

King of the universe

who has sanctified us with His

commandments and commanded us

to light the candles of Rosh Hashana.

Happy New Year!

A very happy

Jewish New Year!

Cheers!!!

Happy New Year!

What's wrong with you?

You're on top of the world and

you have a sour face. - Thanks.

Give him a drink.

Come on, Max.

Listen, I've been here

almost 15 years.

Quite a few Israelis

have passed here in my club.

There are several ways

of living here.

One:
Hate them

for what they did to us

and never stop seeking revenge.

Never forget!

And there is my way.

Having a good time

is my revenge.

Enjoy!

Have fun.

Yom Kippur is coming soon,

so you can repent then.

Shimi said you were sad.

Did he?

Hey, maybe some other time.

Can't sleep, huh?

If you can't sleep then maybe

you're in the wrong place.

Maybe you should go home.

I've got to turn

you and your boys into a team.

You said that already.

There's nothing like a captain

who believes in himself and his team.

If that's what brought you here, you

shouldn't have replaced me as playmaker.

It was a professional decision.

No. It was personal.

You're in my way.

You know what you are?

You're just another apology.

Just another attempt

to erase everything.

They send us a Holocaust survivor

in order to forget the past.

Can you see the paradox?

Your father killed himself, Thomas.

That was his choice, his story.

- Take that back.

It's not your fault.

If you weren't older than me...

- What? What would you do?

Hit me?

It's not as easy as it looks.

But I'll make you a better offer.

If you can pass me,

I'll be on the next plane home.

But if you don't,

you'll do everything I tell you.

I'm warning you.

I'm the best there is.

Now, you can use me

to become a star

at international level,

but you're afraid.

You're afraid that if you make it,

you'll forget.

That's the paradox.

These are the last postcards

I have from my husband...

Yes... and these?

And these are photos...

from Turkey... - Yes...

And that's all I have.

I think I have everything I need,

thank you.

Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

He gave me

a few possible addresses.

He said he will have more,

later this week.

I'm sure he'll do a good job.

He comes highly recommended.

You know, people I know from home,

my family and my husband's family,

they don't help me.

If only I could pay you...

If there's anything I can do.

Yes, there is.

Find him.

Sema needs her father.

I know you don't need anything,

but I must do something.

Something small.

Cup of coffee?

It will not take long, I promise.

Better be good coffee.

It's right here, around corner.

I'm running late.

Maybe some other time.

Oh, no. Is here.

They serve very famous cake here.

You must try.

Today I pay.

It feels like a cemetery

in here. I must go.

But why?

- Please, let's go.

Maximilian?

Is that you?

I saw you on television.

I knew it was you!

I can't believe you are really here.

It's like a fairy tale!

Even as a child,

you were such a...

A wild little boy.

You remember your German.

No, Berta...

You were always an athlete.

Always running around.

I remember

how your father worried.

Poor man...

Sport was not so respected

back then.

He was afraid

you would turn bad.

Shame he didn't live to see it.

He saw other things I did.

Don't talk nonsense!

Did other kids steal cakes?

Cakes?

One slice!

I disappointed him.

He was a sensitive man.

A sensitive man?

A sensitive man.

I don't remember him like that.

It doesn't matter anymore. Let's go.

Taxi! Taxi!

Taxi!

What's wrong?

You steal a cake...

I was thinking it was much worse.

- Why don't you mind your own business?

I can ask you same question.

- No, you can't!

I'm only trying to help you.

You whore!

Everybody is gossiping about you!

What did you say?

Hey! What did you say?

What did he say?

That I cannot sit alone

in cafe with you.

It's okay.

I don't care. Let's go.

Go back, come on,

move it, move it.

Defense! One on one!

Is he blind?

Doesn't he see how bad we are?

Something bad is happening to him.

If we lose to these 2nd league amateurs

the executives will not be happy...

Indeed... not happy at all...

Switch positions.

Switch positions with Dieter.

Come on!

Fist!

Fist!

Well done!

Good, Thomas.

Go, Thomas, go!

Good! Good!

Did someone bring Christmas forward?

Strange, because I don't see any snow.

30% of the points we gave them

were gifts.

Gifts that the Italians

will take full advantage of.

Boys, we won the battle.

But we didn't win the war.

Dismissed. Thomas, good work.

Mr. Stoller, do you think

Prime Minister Begin should resign?

What's his post?

How many baskets did he score?

How does it feel to win

with the German national team?

Israeli television.

I know who you are.

Well, you know, there's room

for improvement, our defense is...

I meant, how does winning with

the German national team feel

as a Holocaust survivor?

Instead of asking me questions about the

game that just finished 5 minutes ago,

why do you persist on talking to me

about events that happened 39 years ago?

I'm a basketball coach.

That's what I do, that's why I'm here.

You want to hear

that I'm here for revenge?

Is that what you want to hear?

Let him go, let him go...

Do you think I'm here for revenge, Axel?

- Max... please...

400,000 Israelis demonstrated against

PM Begin and Defense Minister Sharon...

You've reached the Stoller family.

Please leave a message and we'll get...

... Calling for their resignation

following the tragic massacre

at the Sabra and Shatila

refugee camps in South Lebanon.

Good morning, Mr. Stoller.

"Max Stoller:
'I want revenge!"'

You wanted media interest,

you got media interest.

Like vultures scenting a corpse.

They've been after me ever since

I got here and you know that.

And they found you.

Do you have any idea of the risk

I took to bring you here?

We don't need this. - You brought me

here because I'm the best there is.

They warned me, they told me

I was making a mistake,

that it wouldn't work.

- What the hell are you talking about?
