Trash talking leads to trouble
on the basketball court.…

Forward Daren McCall is quick with an insult, quick to take offense, and quick to blame anyone but himself for his troubles.
So when center Lou Bettman accuses him first of bad-mouthing him, then of vandalism, Daren turns the tables and insists that
Lou is out to get him. The team splits into two camps, those who believe Daren’s innocence and those who take Lou’s side.
The fight heats up when Daren falls victim to an outrageous act. But did Lou retaliate, as Daren suspects, or is someone else
trying to teach Daren a lesson?
