All right. fella, look at the numbers. Send him through. And then he can pay me $10 million and we'll get the

sound drops back. All right, let's do a look ahead. Let's look at the schedule coming up for

Friday. There are 12 games on. It is one of the busiest days we have had in quite a while.

Heat magic, well, actually, before we do that, timing. 7pm starts. Good. We don't have any crazy early starts or anything along those lines. But we do have, again, weirdly early finishes. Oh, maybe it's not that early. The final game of the day tips off at, geez, what time is that? as I tried to figure out, 9.30 p.m. Eastern, so that's 6.30 p.m. Pacific, 730 Central.

No? 8.30 Central. Yes, 8.30 Central.

Yeah, that's the final tip-off game. So a little bit earlier than the usual finishes of games where there are 12 games on.

So, heat magic, Lakers, Celtics, jazz, nicks, spurs, calves. Caves by five seems

a little high given how these teams are playing. Nuggets, hawks, hornets, raptors, blazes,

pistons, paces, bulls, clippers, grizzlies, sixes, bucks, suns, rockets, and Mavericks, thunder.

We did get the news today that Yanni Anto-Kumpo is out for two to four weeks with a calf-strain.

That should not be a surprise.
