He Got Game (1998) Edit

A baby's going to hurt my chance of going to college.

A female friend, and I'd like to take her someplace other than Nathan's.

A little bit of information. I need something anything.

A lot of reasons.

A quarter million dollar Lamborghini Diablo.

Aah!

Aah!

About my plan?

About to graduate, you can't even read, dumb ass.

Acid. We got the nicotine for you.

Ah. Well, I told you my first name was Jake,

Ahh, ohh What's that sound

Ahh, ohh, what's that sound

Ahh, ohh, what's that sound

Ain't exactly clear

Ain't nobody did a motherfucking thing.

All he wants to do is talk to you for five minutes, see where your head is at.

All I'm asking is that you let me wet my beak a little bit.

All of a sudden they have a religious experience? They find Jesus, all right.

All right, all right. Just let me go back to sleep, okay?

All right, Boo?

All right, I'm, uh

All right, Jake. You don't have to get defensive.

All right, Jesus, let me ask you a question.

All right, Sweetness. Here we go, baby.

All right, we gon' cut out all that lucky shit.

All right?

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right. I'm sorry. You want some of this here?

All right. Look, I need to talk to you.

All right. Since you too scared to play me, can we talk for a moment?

All right. Tell you what.

All right. That's good. One out of ten, that's

All right. Well, cool.

All right. Well, hey, look.

All right. Why you allow Sweetness...

All that good ass. How you going to be immune to that thigh?

All these people around here, half these people aren't going to college.

All these schools calling, we need to just get another unlisted number.

All they got to do is make you mad and you'll give up, won't you?

All they want to do is dunk and you know, everything like that.

All those kids don't mean shit! I'm raising you, nobody else!

All those lips, all those hips? All those honey dips?

All you ever talk about is Jordan this, Jordan that.

Amongst the themes controlled by the screens

And all of the pitfalls that come with being in a deprived situation.

And be real for a minute.

And don't forget about the alcohol, baby.

And don't think I don't know about that D'Andre kid either.

And he always says he's sorry.

And he's falling back, and you just J right in his face.

And I didn't even mention the bloodsucking leeches.

And I do believe that God has shown me the way.

And I prayed to God.

And I'd appreciate it if you don't ever walk through that door ever again.

And I'm just going to... you know, do whatever.

And in a situation that's void of any kind of leadership other than his own,

And it's time for you to go. And put the bread back down.

And lots of trees and even a swimming pool in the back.

And star in commercials and make mad loot.

And that I had no problems or no worries?

And that is being able to be a triple threat.

And that's good.

And that's scary Like lies buried in a library

And the crowd goes wild.

And then you look at him, and then you say, What?

And these basketball wars between you and your father have got to stop.

And this is his last visit to any schools.

And we will see you tomorrow.

And when we find you, we will shoot you dead.

And when will that be, Warden?

And when you get home, please be nice to her.

And who's underpaid that got fouled at the basket

And why shouldn't I get paid, huh?

And why you let him though?

And you got the cocaine, heroin, crack cocaine.

And you know what? You're my coach, right? I mean, I don't mind.

And you're in it with them. You're in cahoots with D'Andre and Dom.

And, Jesus, that watch is a gift from Dom Pagnotti to you.

And, uh, got a daughter named Mary.

And, uh, I got two children.

And, uh...

And, uh... I love her very much.

And, you know, ever since day one, she wouldn't let me play basketball.

And, you know, I deserved it. It keeps me in line.

And, you know, Mommy, she wanted you to go to college.

And... it would mean a lot to me.

Any shenanigans, the deal is off.

Anyway, there's this guy that I know that I want you to meet.

Anyway, uh, l, uh...

Are you okay?

Are you out of your mind?

Are you, like, religious or something?

As you already know, this will be the most important decision...

As you already know, you've picked the perfect recreation.

At least I can admit it.

At least I still got my teeth.

At this point in time, I can't tell you who,

Aw, shit!

Aww.

Baby, I love you You having a good time?

Baby, wake up. Call 9 1 1, son.

Back in the day, he could play some ball, yeah.

Ball belonged to me, not to him.

Ball up.

Basketball is like poetry in motion.

Basketball's the birthplace of all of my dreams,

Be a dissident who ain't kissing it

Beaucoup game in the first quarter alone.

Because I'm too young. I cannot wait until I'm 18.

Because men make decisions with their mind.

Because of what he's overcome in his life.

Because, of course, she passed.

Before that game, with 42 points a game the whole season.

Before you go now, I want you to use some of my John the Conqueror root.

Behind the game behind the game

But he knows how to pass. He plays with his teammates.

But I will tell you they are contenders.

But I would tell him that he needs to go to college and get an education...

But I'm the only one here who really, really cares about Jesus.

But most of them didn't amount to shit.

But several NBA teams are interested in you right now.

But the governor got what he wanted.

But under the circumstances my family and I have chosen to be alone.

But we can't trust in your abilities as an actor.

But we just here to let you all know that P.E. is in full effect...

But what you need to do, Jesus, is give me the opportunity...

But you get that hatred out your heart, boy,

But you got any idea where you're going to go with this thing?

But you just have a good time with all of them.

But, Jesus, I miss him so, so much.

But, shit, that don't mean shit to these ******s 'round here; put a cap in your ass.

But, son, your father does love you dearly.

Hating Satan never knew what nice is

Have fun at the camp, and remember

He ain't my father, all right?

He asked me if I want to go house shopping with him.

He brought it behind his back and switched it over to his right hand.

He can defend. He can run. He can finish.

He can't just be Jesus. He got to be Black Jesus.

He can't play you. He can't do nothing with you!

He does not speak for me! You do what you feel is right.

He doesn't consider himself to be a faggot.

He gives me a tingle, and I think that's what Jesus does.

He had escaped the maximum security Attica State Penitentiary...

He is better than good, Daddy. You should see him play.

He kept going. He's almost getting the rim now, or the net, anyway the net.

He knows.

He likes to play in a crowd, and he can pass the basketball.

He makes people better. He's the real thing.

He makes you excited to watch him.

He played himself four years, varsity, at Big State.

He plays to win, and a lot of people play to play.

He say what this is about?

He says he wants to speak to me. He says it's urgent.

He tells me to get you, so I get you.

He think 'cause he got that ball skill, he going up in the N.B.A., he immune.

He told Mary that he was out on a work release program or something.

He understands that if he performs better, they are going to win.

He was coming down for a fast break, and the defender went for the ball.

He was like

He'll do everything in his power to...

He's a friend of the family. His name is D'Andre Mackey.

He's a high riser!

He's a zillion times better than when you last saw him.

He's able to do some of the things that most coaches talk about,

He's also never forgiven anyone who's done him wrong.

He's always singing.

He's cheating, Jesus.

He's down whenever you want to meet.

He's got a great reputation for never forgetting anyone who's done right by him.

He's had to be very, very self reliant.

He's not going to be here much longer.

He's so nervous.

He's stressing you out, I see.

He's supposed to be bossy and everything like that.

He's supposed to be, taking care of his little sister.

He's the next phenom! He's awesome, baby, with a capital A!

I ain't got no more time to be trying to beg your forgiveness or nothing,

I ain't got nothing to say, Coach.

I ain't like everybody else. Everybody else ain't your father.

I ain't too old to have dreams. Is that what you think?

I already know what you're about to say.

I am tired of people telling me that I'm not old enough.

I bet he can finally beat you.

I came to this court by myself. Why you got to follow me?

I can bring you to the Promised Land,

I can count. That's one.

I can handle my own business, all right?

I can live with them odds.

I can't believe that bitch did me like this.

I can't believe this. I really can't.

I can't blame the M.V. who be getting all the Benjies

I can't do that right now. I have to weigh my options.

I could take you out your game that easy, huh?

I didn't even know they had basketball camps.

I didn't say I believed it. I just said that that's what people are saying.

I didn't teach you that, though, did l?

I don't even want to know who you got it from either.

I don't know about all men, but I don't even think like that.

I don't know if I should. I could get in trouble.

I don't know yet. I have to weigh my options.

I don't know, Lala.

I don't know.

I don't know. I mean, they're all the same,

I don't know. I was dreaming.

I don't know. I'm usually around.

I don't remember where he was saying he was going 'cause I was half asleep.

I don't see anyone here. Just me and you.

I don't want no trouble, my man.

I don't want you getting into any more trouble. I know it wasn't your fault.

I don't want you to lose track of time. You see, we're on a tight schedule.

I don't want you to lose track of time. You see, we're on a tight schedule.

I ever bring that up?

I feel handsome when I'm on the court. I feel like I'm somebody.

I feel you need to involve us more in your life.

I give you that.

I go back to Attica, 'cause I know that's what you really want. Right?

I got Calculus.

I got down on my knees, and I asked God...

I got down... on my hands and knees...

I got even less time, so I'm going to make it real quick.

I got game She got game

I guess that's a requirement of the job, huh? Right?

I had no idea that

I have seen that movie many a time.

I have the contacts. So apply for the NBA draft now.

I have to meet him. We'll talk about this tomorrow. See you later, Mary.

I haven't had the pleasure of meeting your son as yet. I can't speculate.

I hear what you say, but if everybody's saying the same thing, it's got to be true.

I hope that Chick here has been a gracious host.

I hope this rhyme gets you in time in space, come to a different place

I hope you don't think we're too forward or aggressive with the highlight film...

I hope you're not looking to buy no plane, train or bus ticket out of here.

I just asked your son where you were.

I just asked your son where you were.

I just feel comfortable with a brother.

I just want to feel you inside of me...

I just want you to know I don't do drugs. I'm clean.

I just want you to know what the tick tock is.

I keep telling y'all, stop fucking with me.

I know he drives you too hard.

I know how you feel, son, but the fact remains he is your daddy.

I know you ain't been out messing around with them little boys.

I know you didn't mean it.

I know you grew What, a couple, three inches?

I know you know how to spell that, don't you?

I know. Just can't wait 'til next season when you're going to school here.

I like talking to you and all, but don't let that fool you, you know.

I like you, you know, uh, fa uh, Dakota.

I love him. He loves me.

I love them, but they make you work too hard, man.

I loved her more than life itself.

I made a promise to your mother that if anything ever happened to her,

I mean, I just want the best for both of us.

I mean, is that like a finalist, or the final four for you?

I mean, it was just It's off the hook.

I never thought about it like that.

I overpower the mic Hit the crowd with the bomb diggy

I play the two spot.

I ran a neighbourhood center.

I read all about you, everything like that, and, uh

I refuse to let Mary grow up in the same apartment with Uncle Bubba.

I said hello. That's about it.

I said to myself, That's the kind of young man...

I still got a ways to go, and, uh...

I still got dreams. I got plans too. Big plans.

I talk too much. That's what Sweetness always says.

I tell people my whole life history and I don't even know a thing about them.

I think I'll go around again.

I think it would just be a sin that...

I think it's only right that we be compensated for sacrifices...

I think me and you, we suffer from the same affliction. I swear to God.

I think that, uh... I can help you.

I think when April 11th comes, I just want to let my hair down,

I think you heard what she's saying.

I think you need to go and talk to your father.

I thought maybe you need some help, or something like that.

I thought you lifted weights in Attica, in the joint. Huh?

I told him I'd be here at the Garden.

I told them nobody can tell Jesus what to do, but they fucking insisted.

I told you I ain't taking it easy on you. Where you at, boy?

I tore them up too.

I want this inmate quarantined immediately.

I want to feel you inside of me, papi.

I want to go eat.

I want to show you my court.

I'm happy for him. Why do you think my son did it?

I'm his number one money maker. I'm his bottom bitch.

I'm John Chaney from Temple University.

I'm just hoping that you ain't compromising yourself, son.

I'm just saying that there's a reason and I can at least admit it.

I'm not asking you to commit a homicide here. I'm asking you to just give me...

I'm not fucking with no agents, Lala.

I'm sorry. I apologize for putting my hands on you, okay?

I'm teaching, brother. I'm teaching, son, like I always taught you.

I'm the bomb. I'm the bomb. Say it. I'm the bomb.

I'm too young. You're too young. We ain't ready for nothing like this.

I'm turning the meter off.

I've done a lot of praying and have asked for guidance from above.

If anybody sees me in this car, that's my ass.

If I hear you talking like that again, I'll kill you myself!

If my mother ever saw me with a white bitch, she'd spin in her grave.

If necessary, these men have been given a green light to shoot.

If that's something that we as coaches have used for many years dribble, pass and shoot.

If they were stupid enough to give me money...

If those were really your friends, they wouldn't be filling your head with bullshit.

If we work together, we can both get what we want. You know what I'm saying?

If you somewhat sure Hip hop's like a chess game

If you would've been on time, there would've been no need to run.

If you're immature then you live in sinister

It's been a long time.

It's between you and the rim.

It's just five minutes of your time before you make your decision.

It's just that I could... get in trouble.

It's like 1:00 a.m. I'm really sorry it's so late,

It's me, baby. It's Lala.

It's my job to convince him.

It's not over 'til it's over, 'til the fat lady sings.

It's okay.

It's open.

It's registered in my name, but it's for you.

Jim Faen from Mount Saint Mary's used to say,

Just 'cause a man bigger than you, don't mean he better than you.

Just because I'm an Italian American doesn't mean I'm involved with the mob.

Just coming down the court, you got a defender in your way.

Just for you, black man.
