In the NBA, there are seven of the old games on. So let's talk about them. Now, you've got to be aware that there's been, I don't know why this has happened. I think over the last day or two, there's been two NBA games that have had their times rearranged. I don't know why, but I think, I'm pretty sure this is one of them, where the Hornets and the Wizards is the first game of the day, but it is now incredibly early.

It is a midday start.

Midday, Saturday.

I don't know why, but get your lineups ready early.

Midday.

Eastern Saturday.

Wizards Hornets.

Then there's another early one, a 3pm game between the Knicks and the Sixers.

What am I missing here? What is this Friday date that I'm missing? There's got to be something.

Because the next one is the 5.30pm Eastern, 430pm Central Start between the Warriors and the

wolves. What is this day? I'm going to find out. What? What is it? The 24th of January. It's gonna be something. Anyway, 7pm Eastern. We've got the Cavs and the Magic. 8pm Eastern. We've got the Celtics and the Bulls. 8.30? No? Yeah, 8.30 p.m. Eastern. We've got the Lakers and the Mavericks and then 9.30 p.m. Eastern or 6.m. Central.

It is the Miami Heat and the Utah Jazz. But I'm going to find out. What is actually going on on this day where we've got so many weird start times?

Oh, that didn't do anything to help. Unless we're celebrating the 1989 execution of serial killer Ted Bundy, I don't know what is possibly going on on the 24th of January. Someone please enlighten me as to why this schedule is so weirdly with these three weird early games. All right, let's talk about the games. Wizard's Hornets. Marvin Bagley and Tristan Vukchevich have both been injured. I think we've seen Alex Saar's minutes jump through the roof and I was like,

what the hell is going on?

But that's probably why, because there's been no Vukchevich or Bagley.
