All right, so we got three lives remaining.
You still have one assist.
All right, Shump, Shump. Let's talk for a minute.
What strategy are you going with?
Like, what are you trying to do?
My first throw had the little backspin on it.
Okay. But it made me throw it short.
So now I'm trying to do a regular throw,
but that just threw it off.
So I'm thinking I got to go back to my first strategy.
Dwyane: Okay. But if I don't get it on this one, gang...
I'll be tag teaming --
Once you get down to one life, you can't use your One Shot.
I either got to go now or the next game.
Come on, Shump. Knock this down.
Shump, let's go. No violation to you, bro.
I love you. I love you to death.
I got to do this. Let me tell you something.
What did it do the last time it got up there?
It rolled out. So what does it need to do?
Little backspin. All right, but think about it.
