Details: The story is about a teenage boy named Nick, who plays basketball for the varsity team at his high school. Ever since his brother, Scott, quit basketball for music, Nick's dad has been paying attention to Nick's basketball ever since, and not on Scott at all.
His [Scott] face went red. "It's you he wanted to talk to, Nick, not me. I don't think it's even occured to him that the band will be playing tonight.
This quote shows the difference in care from their dad between Nick and Scott. Their dad seems to only cares about basketball, and nothing else.

Ethics: There is a hot- headed tough guy on Nick's team named Trent, who plays extremely aggresive, and whenever anyone gets in a dispute with him, it's natural to want to back away from the dispute with Trent in it.
"His hand came right back at my face, his fingers squeezing my cheeks and almost gouging my eyes. 'No way, Abbott. No way.'"
This shows how aggressive and mean Trent is, and naturally all the teammates stepped away from the dispute in order to avoid fights.
