Eve found herself suddenly surrounded by white jerseys

and was quite discouraged

devin :

                        come on Eve

                        give it up

                                             [reaching for the ball]

                                            [looking past her man]

                        where’s  my man

                        oh!! there he is

                        she nods to Howard

                        Howard nods back

vince :

                        no way you guys come back

                        no way

howard :

                        alright Vince

                        keep talking , keep talking

                                             [referee blows whistle]

                        walking!!!!!!

eve :

                        what!!!!!!!!

fan :
                        what do you expect

                        they’re playing in New Jersey

                              [while bringing the ball up the court]

richard :

                        by the way Eve

                        i love your new jersey

eve :

                        thanks Richard

coach :

                        that’s okay Eve

                        keep looking to attack the basket

eve :

                        let’s go guys

                        let’s get a stop this time

                        Howard looks at the scoreboard

                                       Atlanta Hawks              94

                                        New jersey Nets         110

                                                   [noticing Howard]

eve :

                        don’t worry Howard , we’re going to win

                        okay you two

                                                     [Mike teasing]


                        don’t forget your teammates

al :

                        they can’t help it Mike

                        they’re  the only two on the team that dates

eve :

                        he’s right you know

mike :

                        of course Eve

                        but the next time Howard passes you the ball

                        wait for the pick and roll

                        he’ll stick to your goals

                                     [meanwhile while guarding Vince]

                        all i’ve been shooting is bricks

josh :

                        that’s cause you’re concentrating on a role

                        she’s your chick

                        right?

                                                    [Howard nods]


                        well go for it

                        she’ll dig your soul

                                         [Howard intercepts a pass]

                        Eve!!!!!!!!!!!

                        Okay baby

                        here i come

                                       [Eve & Howard turn around]

                        thanks Mike

                        thanks Josh

                        Howard tosses the ball to Joe

                        as they start a 3 on 1 fastbreak

joe :

                        so what do you want Eve

                        an alley oop?

eve :

                        sure, throw it off the glass

                                                [turns to Howard]

                        can she really do that?

                        Howard shrugs

                        hey, you asked

                        turns back to Eve

joe :

                        okay Eve , here goes

                        tosses the ball up into the air

                        as it bounces off the backboard

                        Eve jumps up and slams it through the hoop

eve :

                        see guys

                        no problem

                                                [turns to Howard]

                        what a lass

                                                  [Howard smiles]

                                                        i know




                                                                                                                 love,

                                                                                                                 eve & howard
