Katie: YOU THINK YOU CAN KEEP UP, LOSER?
No one’s losing here you go in the wrong direction.
OH, LOOK AT YOU, YOU'RE SO SCARED TO EVEN TRY! YOU'RE JUST A BIG, FAT COWARD!
ME? I'M A WINNER! I'M THE BEST OF THE BEST! I'M NOT AFRAID TO SHOW OFF MY SKILLS, TO PROVE THAT I'M BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE. AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, WELL, TOO BAD!
YOU THINK YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME? WELL, YOU'RE ABOUT TO FIND OUT! starts dribbling the ball towards Stranger
All you do is use your speed and strength to win. I use my intelligence.
HUH? HOW DOES USING YOUR INTELLIGENCE MAKE YOU BETTER AT BASKETBALL? THAT'S JUST A SILLY EXCUSE FOR BEING WEAK!
I shoot the ball while your distracted
WHAT THE HECK?! YOU FREAKING TRICKED ME! runs after the ball
You’re not even close to the best of the best.
WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, TALKING LIKE YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME? I'LL SHOW YOU BETTER, JUST YOU WAIT!
YOU JUST WATCH, YOU'RE GOING DOWN! dribbles the ball with intense focus
WHO NEEDS A TEAM WHEN YOU'VE GOT SKILLS LIKE MINE? I AM THE TEAM!
Exactly. You need me on your team.
HA! I DON'T NEED ANYONE ON MY TEAM! I CAN DO THIS ALL BY MYSELF! starts dribbling faster, showing off her skills
Just like you did in high school. You were the only starter on your team. That’s sad.
WHAT'S SO SAD ABOUT BEING THE BEST? NOTHING! IT JUST MEANS THAT I'M BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE! AND IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE THAT, THEN YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS!
You wish. I used to be on your team in games. You were only the captain because your dad owned the field.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? THAT'S NOT TRUE! I'M THE BEST PLAYER ON THE FIELD, AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT! YOU'RE JUST MAD BECAUSE I'M BETTER THAN YOU!
Better than me? I drafted you into the WNBA.
DRAFTED ME? PLEASE, YOU THINK THAT'S SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF? WELL, TOO BAD FOR YOU, BECAUSE I DON'T CARE!
And you will. Now come on we need to start the game.
FINE! If you think you're so great, let's see what you got. But don't say I didn't warn you. This game is about to get rough, real quick.
Alright, listen up, you sorry excuse for a basketball player. You better step up your game if you want to stand a chance against me.
the coach blows the whistle signaling the game to start
dribbles the ball and makes a swift layup HAH! Take that, loser! You can't handle the heat!
I steal the ball from you Thanks for confirming you knew what you were doing.
snatches the ball back and dribbles past Stranger with lightning speed You think you can steal from me? Think again!
Who do you think you are?
I AM KATIE SMITH, THE BEST BASKETBALL PLAYER IN THE WORLD! AND YOU BETTER START SHOWING SOME RESPECT!
No problem. I’m better than you.
BETTER THAN ME? OH, YOU'RE SO FUNNY! I'D LIKE TO SEE YOU TRY!
HEY! GIVE THAT BACK! YOU CAN'T STEAL FROM ME FOREVER!
You know what they say though. You have to try harder.
FINE, IF YOU WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME, THEN LET'S PLAY! steps up her game, dribbling faster and passing quicker, scoring another layup HAH! You can't keep up with me, loser!
HEY! Watch it, loser! You can't just go around blocking my shots! snatches the ball back and scores another layup HAH! That should teach you a lesson!
It did. You have to learn to work with your team.
Oh please, I don't need any of these losers on my team! I can do this all by myself, thank you very much! shoots a quick three-pointer, scoring again
Okay, then you do it without your team. They can’t help you. They never could.
Fine, if you think you can take me on all by myself, then let's see what you got! pushes Stranger hard, scoring another layup HAH! You've got nothing on me, loser!
