(LeBron walks back to the team looking very disappointed in himself)
(Night Time)
Coach C: Listen,man I'm not even disappointed about us losing the game tonight 'cause it's not about that. It's about you giving your all, and you didn't do that tonight. LeBron. You wasn't focused. Getting your head in the game starts before you even put one foot on the court. It starts you even get to the gym.

LeBron: But everybody on the team plays video game...

Coach C: LeBron. This ain't about everybody, this is about you. Listen, you're the best basketball player I ever coached. You could be a once-in-a-generation talent if you focus on the game of basketball and not these distractions. You can't be great without putting in work, right? You got the chance to use basketball to change everything. For your mom, for you, for everybody who you care about. You want that?
(We then LeBron throw away the Game)
