Fan's extreme reaction to game from @nochillgil

A man in his car delivers a satirical monologue, joking that after watching a poor performance by basketball player Marcus Smart, he decided to get knee surgery himself to be ready to play for the Lakers in Game 3. He shows his bandaged hand and marked knee, then the video cuts to a shot of him in a hospital bed and concludes with a shot of a full Lakers outfit laid out, ready for the game.
