Eddie can't believe his luck - he's actually going to get to shoot a basketball in front of thousands of people! As Eddie steps onto the court at the NBA game, he can feel the pressure mounting. The entire stadium is watching him, waiting to see if he can make the shot. And then, in a moment of pure focus and determination, Eddie lets the ball fly. And miraculously, it goes in.
