Just Wright Page #3

Synopsis: Leslie Wright is a straight-shooting physical therapist who gets the gig of a lifetime working with NBA All-Star Scott McKnight. All is going well until Leslie finds herself falling for Scott, forcing her to choose between the gig and the tug-of-war inside her heart. Oblivious to her romantic overtures, McKnight is instead drawn to the affections of Leslie's childhood friend Morgan, who has her sights set on being an NBA trophy wife. Is Leslie destined to play the role of "best friend" forever or will Scott finally see that what he always wanted is right in front of him?

and night out on that court.

Nets fans know what I'm worth.

Hopefully the Nets front office

knows it, too.

- So what you're saying is...

- So what I'm saying is,

- it's good to see you, J.

- All right, for sure. Congratulations.

That was great, man.

I think you just started a bidding war.

I don't want a bidding war.

You know, I wanna stay a Net.

Red and blue...

"Runs through my veins," you've been

saying that since the day they drafted you.

Sweet Lew!

- What up, man?

- Good game, way to shoot the ball.

- Thanks, man.

- Hey, I'll see you All-Star Weekend.

All-Star, yes, sir.

There you are, girl.

I've been looking everywhere for you.

- Hey.

- Hey, Leslie.

- What's up?

- It's packed up in here.

I know, girl, what's up?

Scott McKnight is having a birthday party

Saturday night at his house.

I know y'all trying to be up in the spot.

Leslie, be nice.

- You got the hook-up?

- My girl does.

We're going to meet her

at the Warwick Hotel. You want to roll?

- You don't mind, do you?

- Nah, do your thing.

- I'll have them drop me off, okay?

- All right.

I mean, if we gonna have a charity,

I need to be around the kids more.

That's the whole gist.

I want to talk to the kids.

I need to be in their faces.

I need to see what they're thinking.

That's what it's always been about for me.

I mean, come on,

what else should it be for?

I can't find the button

to put gas in this thing, man.

This is... This is getting ridiculous.

Nah, I'm...

You should talk to my mom about that.

- She's running the charity, okay?

- You...

- I think you...

- Excuse me. Miss?

- Leslie.

- Let me call you back.

Leslie, right?

Yeah, Leslie Wright, with a "W."

These cars usually don't have a...

A button. And you might want

to spin it around.

Okay, Leslie Wright.

Smells like it's fresh off the assembly line.

You just get it?

Yeah. Thanks, though, I appreciate it.

Well, you can thank me

by winning the championship.

Oh, you really a die-hard, huh?

Red and blue runs through my veins.

You sound like me.

I'm a Jersey girl. Gotta represent.

- All right.

- You know, l...

- I shouldn't.

- What?

- I shouldn't, no.

- What were you gonna say?

I'm sorry, I'm a little nosy and forgive me,

but I couldn't help but notice

a Joni Mitchell CD sitting on your seat.

Okay, yeah, I like Joni Mitchell.

- Really?

- Actually, I really love jazz.

That's my thing.

You know that song

Joni Mitchell did with...

- Charles Mingus.

- Oh, yeah, I love that one.

Yeah, that's a bad record.

- Okay, you have a good night.

- I better get home.

You know what, let me get your door.

I never figured you

for the opening door type.

Come on, I open doors, I offer my coat,
