  2. 2

Transcript

Under a minute to good, Russ Dunn, mutual chirping back and forth, but Robert Hussey calls a single tech on Russsey, pleading his case like, why not double tech? We were both talking. It's what you said. It gotta be both ways. I heard what he said. Well, he said it too. Second year official Robert Hussey no handling the double team well. John Goble, seventeen year veteran official coaching him up. Rob. Rob. Go over. Shoot. After the technical free throw, Russ staring down Dunn and back at it. You're a nobody ass man. I played your ass no. Nobody? Who are you? Looks at his jersey. Oh, Dunn. Who's that? Who's you? Who is you? Who are you? Ty Lou eventually brings Dunn out of the game. Go sit your bum ass down, man. Sit your bum ass down.
