Damn it, Son.

Why'd you got that skillet for?

Look, I'm gonna make it

real simple for you.

Long you keep gambling,

the longer I stay gone.

It's not gambling,

it's a system.

I'm taking the skillet.

Wait a minute.

How's Carter?

He's fine.

You hear about my father?

He died.

It was past weekend.

Went to the funeral yesterday.

What happened?

I said some things.

You think that was wise?

Doesn't matter.

I want to see Carter.

Take him out fishing.

- Where?

- The hell is it matter where?

I'll drop him off for you.

All right.

Saturday at 2.

Lake at dam.

You look good.

All right.

Let's get to work.

Where are you goin'?

Work.

Hey, coach.

Hi, guys.

- What's up?

- Not much.

Whacha been doin'?

Oh, just goin' over some plays.

Did you know that somebody wrote

"Suck it" on the back of your van?

They did?

I didn't know that.

Probably outta get that washed off.

Yeah, I probably should.

So, you wanna play some basketball?

No, but you guys go ahead.

I'm just gonna grab Henry.

All right.

You guys need to work out

on overhanded lay-offs.

Remember those overhanded lay-offs

we were doin' on practice?

Go to van, Henry.

Fundamentals, guys, fundamentals!

Yeah, that was pretty good.

- Are you ready?

- Yeah.

Did you hear Son got shot

robbin' a liquor store?

No, man, he got caught messin'

around with somebody's wife.

That's not what I heard.

Don't matter how he got shot,

he's about to get another one.

My cousin worked for Mark Hayes.

Said Son showed up at

Mark's daddy's funeral...

talkin' sh*t.

Mark Hayes.

That crazy son of a b*tch.

Never met him.

I wouldn't know.

You wanna get some dinner?

No. I'm taking Cheryl out.

Where are you takin' her?

Buffet, probably.

Special!

Yeah.

You need shirt?

Don't think so.

What are you doin'?

Me and Boy might get up to something.

You got a button-up?

Yeah, I got a button-up.

You promise?

Yeah.

I mean, I want to talk to my brothers

about it first, but...

Yeah.

I love you.

I love you, too.

I'll call you later.

Be sweet.

What are you doin'?

Watching you being a stud.

- You sleep out here?

- No, I ain't been to bed yet.

Wanna get some breakfast?

Yeah.

Where's Henry?

I tied him up out back last night.

I need a burrito.

Let's do it.

Seen my wallet?

What about full-court man-to-man?

No, man-to-man's no good.

Depends too much on how you

size up against the other team.

I think we gotta go with, like, a zone.

Full-court press so we can practice

some running against anybody.

I thought you ran one of those

last year?

Well, I took a defense off

Nolan Richardson,

but, I dunno,

we didn't have the depth to run it.

Yeah, that's always been your weakness.
