The first time Kevin and Andrew have their little shoot out what are they saying to each other? Especially when Kevin grabs the front of Andrew's helmet and Andrew aborts punching him

It started off with Kevin making sure Neil hadn’t sent Andrew on the court and Andrew reminding him that Neil doesn’t tell him what to do ((the lies, Andrew, the absolute lies)). When Kevin loses his temper with Andrew’s performance he chews him out, demanding to know why Andrew keeps holding back, why Andrew continues to sell himself short when they both know he can do better than this. Less “Stop wasting my time, you suck” and more “You’re choosing to waste our time by pretending you’re not as good as we both know you are.”

Kevin tells him that if he’s not out there on that court for himself then there’s no reason for him to be there–Kevin doesn’t need a babysitter after all this time, so Andrew can play for himself or he can get the fuck out of Kevin’s way. And Andrew, being the totally mature one of the two of them, reminds Kevin that Kevin doesn’t tell him what to do, either. But he stays, and that’s all that matters.
