Two players we're going to be focusing on more than any other. Look who played tonight. Look what happened. Jimmy Butler scored 30 points in his return, 20 in the first half. But you know what, Alex, just roll it. Let's get to the gamer of the night. And now on 5 on the floor, it's time for the gamer of the night. Sponsored by Rock Esports Center, the place to eat, drink, and play all day. Host your next birthday party with them. Located at 15305 South Dixie Highway in Palmetto Bay.

So mention five reasons or five RSN, you get to play all day for $20. And now the gamer of the night. Or they needed spacing tonight. Somebody went 5 of 6 from 3. Terry Rosier, 33 minutes, 8 of 16 from the floor, including that 5 of 6 from 3, 24 points. But, and we'll give it away, we'll come up with another play of the night because obviously he's going to be featured in this one. The four point play followed by the three pointer. Late in the game. Alex, you've talked about it and it's Rosier kind of, well, you both talked about it actually. This is Rosier kind of finding his place. We were talking about this on playback tonight. That he seems to have like one speed. It's all forward. Like the throttle doesn't really go back. But then sometimes he's not aggressive with it. And this team, as I know Brady, you've said this, Alex, you said this team did not acquire him to be a role guy. Like they acquired him to be a score. And especially with no Tyler hero, we'll get to the injury report later, but no Tyler here as we know, no Duncan Robinson, no BAM out of bio tonight. You can't have Rosier taking fewer shots than Patty Mills, which was the case at one point during this game. Alex, he turned it on late. Obviously. How significant is this? It's significant because, I mean, it wasn't like he had a perfect game or anything, right? He, he went, I think, three of 10 inside the arc, you know, he had a really good scoring game overall. When you look at the field goal and you mentioned the threes and that's what's significant about it because, and we've talked about this plenty like we've seen the underrated part of his game coming in was the passing and he's been pretty consistent there. You know, tonight, and there was a game recently. I don't remember if it was a six year's game or not where the assistant turnover ratio wasn't good. You know, it was two, two and two tonight. It's not, but you know what? Like that part has been there for this entire time, for the most part, where you wanted to see more of was the shooting and you saw that tonight. He had a couple of early catches shoots, which you don't typically see with him. And it's really like is one who I feel kind of needs the kind of those rhythm dribbles after he catches the ball and he is very much Hooper in that way. Right. Like, that's how he kind of develops his rhythm and, you know, getting those early once the fall is big. Like they just, they need him to hit those two. And then the other part of his game that we had been clamoring to see more of that he was very proficient with in Charlotte was the pull up shooting for three. I felt some of it was a product, you know, not seeing enough of it was a product of maybe the way that they were running those rosier band, picking roles early on where like, I felt it needed to be a little bit higher because it felt like the option for him to pull up from three wasn't really there. A lot of the time. And, you know, him being confident enough to take those shots, right, and not feeling like, you know, he can't take shots that are not like right in the flow of the office because a lot of times they're not going to be like that. He, he was acquired to bring that layer of self creation, right, along with the passing that he's brought in, you know, being able to attack the pain and, you know, and hit those short mid rain shots that he's decent with like the pull up shooting was a part of it. And I'm glad that we're able to see that, you know, huge play down the stretch and big time clutch play I think just this was a big win. This is one of those where it's like, you know, it would have been really, really nice if they would have held on to tie trigger with the Sixers and won that game would have really helped the standings. Good bounce back win for them because you keep the Cavs kind of in the third seed and you get closer to getting to the six seed, which, you know, in my opinion, should be their goal as of right now. And Terry kind of took them home in that regard. Make Cleveland is the dream matchup to me in the first round. You look at the other teams in the Eastern Conference. And first thing is just get out in the play in like that. We've talked about that a lot, but they didn't do that tonight because there's still a half game behind Indiana for seven and a half game behind Philadelphia that that loss. Excuse me in Philly in a lot of ways is crushing, but again still within striking distance of the six Orlando's three games ahead of them. The Knicks are three and a half ahead of them and even one with that on and over the other night. But again, if Cleveland can settle into that three, the six looks good to me because I understand there was no Mitchell, I get it. No Mobley, no screws. So you're talking about three of their top six Brady. But also on your end, you don't have BAM, you don't have hero, you don't have Duncan, we could say that's three of your top six. So, so they were kind of evenly matched tonight. And, and I just kept saying, okay, if that's the case, Jimmy and Rosie. Need to outplay. Jared Allen and Garland, really. I mean, that's where it was for me. Jared Allen killed them on the boards. But Jimmy and Rosie are ultimately outplayed Garland and that ended up being the difference. We're not ever sent. And I mean, quickly to say about the standings thing, like, I've been saying for a while, I feel like it almost felt weird to say when they were kind of higher in the standings, but I was like, the six seed is kind of like their best. Like in terms of matchups and everything, probably the best spot they'd like to be in just because it's the Cleveland matchup. And look, when you're talking about this Cleveland matchup, once again, definitely a different team we saw tonight, but one of the things that we saw was Jimmy scoring on Cleveland at will. But I think that makes you feel good for a potential playoff series, the stuff that you can do. And they'll probably be in more lineups where he can mismatch hunt more so when guys like Mitchell and Garland are playing more together and stuff like that. So, for 100% in this game, it was came down to Jimmy Butler and Terry Rosie are kind of being outplaying Jared Allen and Garland. And for a while there, Jimmy held up his end of the bargain for a while, but it felt like they didn't have that second guy. They didn't really have that second punch. That's why it was huge to see not only the shot late because I know we're going to talk about that last shot and also the end one three, but he did a lot of things in that fourth where he had another big time three earlier in the fourth that was kind of needed. He had kind of the obviously the end one three that kind of swung it when they went down for if they don't get a bucket on that possession that games over with that they are not winning that game if they don't score in that possession. So it's worth so about the timing of it and either we talked about it on playback earlier we're talking about the shot selection of rosier and the timing of when his shots come and it's like, that's, that's when they need him. Sometimes he has to look around and say, okay, I was brought here to not just play a role but like on a night like this I'm supposed to be Charlotte Terry Rosier that's what I was brought here to do and especially when I look around and the team looks a lot like Charlotte. It's like, okay, maybe I should start playing like that. It's like, okay, let me take some of the shots that I was taking. And I've seen him hit a lot of that though the shots that he hit down the stretch I've seen him do that a lot in charge. Those sidestep rhythm threes like sometimes you see somebody take that shot you're like, well that's a tough shot that's a bad shot. No, that's a shot Terry is so comfortable with. That's a shot he's more comfortable with probably than a normal spot up like he loves those little rhythm step back sidestep type shots and it just feels like they gotta just let him take those consistently. I have to kind of roll with the punches a little bit and like I said earlier as well. I think there's going to be a point where they eliminate some of those long twos and the weird mid range shots from in like just like they did with Tyler and Tyler's a really great memory. Suppose like, okay, we want to dial those back a little bit. We want to turn a lot of those into threes. It's what they need to do with Terry. They need to turn a lot of those weird little, you know, step inside the three tough mid ranges into sidestep or step back threes or pull up threes. But what I ever said, I thought that the comeback from Terry in terms of just like did not feel like he had a great first half and the ability to kind of withstand that and come back and still play well. And I know we're gonna talk a lot about Terry but I mean Jimmy was great. Jimmy was great from short the fish so he deserves credit for the for the fact that they were had the lead in the first place. We've had four steals. We talk about that all the time. There are certain stats with him that tell you about his engagement 30 points. Four rebounds, five assists, four steals. I think he only had one turnover. Let me check on that. Two turnovers, plus 10 in the game. You'll take that every time and I'm just gonna say it because, you know, people have been coming at me because I've been saying like he's not playing enough and and I don't, again, like to judge someone else's injuries. But there is a different standard to his availability than others because this is the Jimmy Butler build like they feed off of not just his availability, but his energy. There has to be both like we've talked about so many games this year where he played but he wasn't all there. If you could bottle this Jimmy Butler for this last like finishing kick of the season, they have a chance. They have a chance as the other bodies start to come back. Okay. They need this from him all the time. Like he's had enough time now. He's gonna end up missing what 25 to 28 games this season. And now it's as long as his body feels good enough to handle it. There can't be a question about his aggression. Like when he plays like this, they feel like they can stay in games. And if you look at this game, they kept pushing ahead to leads. And it was his energy pushing them ahead. And then they give back the leads. I said at halftime, they'd end up having a 30 to 35 point second half. That's pretty close to what they had. You knew that there was going to be regression. They were, I think, six of 10 from three in the first quarter at one of 10 in the second quarter. You were not going to continue to have the spacing that you had or the shooting that you had early in the game when, again, your spacers were basically what Patty Mills and Caleb Martin. Like you don't have Robinson. You don't have hero. You don't have love. I mean, that's three of their primary spacers. Okay, I'm not going to put them as a spacer yet, but he did make threes and four straight games. And now let's put up the set four of 26 or three after starting six for 10. But see, with Jimmy, and he had a three in there with Jimmy, the energy can be consistent. Like, as the three point shooting comes and goes, if he's giving you that, they have a chance to shut down runs. And to me, that that's the biggest thing that that he was so good at last season is that they would give up leads. Jimmy would come back. We'd be like waiting for him to come back at the scorer's table like, okay, Jimmy's going to settle this thing down. Get them back into their offense, start hunting the mismatches. They know they don't have both Mobley and Allen Dean Wade's actually given him some problems at time defensively as well. But tonight, I thought he, I thought he played a perfect game for what they needed. Perfect, not his best game, but a perfect game for what they needed. And they're going to need that here going forward. And I'm going to continue to call it out because, again, the standard is higher with him than it is with these other guys. I understand people are frustrated that hero doesn't play. I understand they're frustrated now with Duncan as an injury and others have injuries or BAM misses time. It starts with Jimmy. It starts with Jimmy. And tonight, he was great. All right, we're going to do right now the play of the night. I feel like there's a few of them and they all involve one person, but go ahead, Alex. And now it's time for the insurance by Lynette play of the night sponsored by insurance by Lynette.com and a aggressive insurance agency. You can reach out to our friend Lynette at 954-581-8800.

All right, we got it. We're going with a four-point play. Do we want to describe what happened there, Alex? I've never seen that before. There were double challenges, right? On the same play, like, Spose saved his challenge. What was he challenging? Was challenging whether or not he had space to land or did he not end up calling the challenge? Because I'm going to ask Eric said that he was going to. That's the thing, since we were on playback. And of course, when I say it contractually, I have to say playback.tv/5R or download the app, watch the game with us there. Again, that four-point play was really fun to watch with everybody. But going back to the point, I didn't even realize that Spose, I got this whole thing you described, I didn't even realize it happened. I just thought it was bigger staff challenging. I get why he did it there. That was such a huge play. Even if the odds weren't good, I would take the gamble. I just like, "Hey, maybe they overturned it and this game-changing play doesn't count." But yeah, we were talking about it there, too. Maybe there was grounds for a flagrant with the way that the NBA calls it, where it's like, "You can't be in Guy's landing space." And it just ended up being the same. But Terry, like Brady mentioned earlier, it was too big of a shot to not be the play of the night because they were starved for a bucket. And Terry not only gave you a tough step back three on a good perimeter defender and Isaac Okoro, but did it while getting fouled and hitting the freer. You literally can't ask for anything more than that. And that is, like we were talking about, that's what you've been wanting to see from him, that extra level of chaos where it isn't just him trying to get to the pain and pass out of there. I need him to use that third level and him being a big threat from there on and off ball is like a big part of why you traded a first-round pick. And what we thought to be a valuable expiring contract in Lowry, you could do a lot with that and they decided to do it for Terry, along with the first. It's like, that was part of the reason you traded for him. So, huge, huge play along with the other ones that Brady mentioned before. Like, he, again, didn't have like an amazing night as the game was going early on and then just came back from it. And look, the heat started 10 of 13 at the rim in the game and 6 of 10 from 3 and then went 5 of 12 at the rim and 7 of 26 from 3 after that. So, the offense had really fallen off after it had gotten to a really nice start, you know, early on in the game. And the defense wasn't exactly amazing. Like, I thought they did a pretty good job on Garland and I feel like they do more often than not when they play him. They made it tough on him, but the other guys like Jared Allen was doing whatever he wanted out there. You know, Niang really got going there and got better as the game went on. Like, some of these guys were getting to some easy buckets in the cast. But Alice, I'll take, I mean, if you look at the overall numbers without BAM, I'll take it. Like, I mean, they shot what their splits were 46 35, right? They score 104 for the game. I mean, without BAM, like, we saw earlier this season, like that time the BAM missed. I know one of them was an Indiana game, so they were just running up on down the floor. But to me, the overall numbers defensive were not that considering the, considering the rebounding issue, which most of Allen's rebounds were actually defensive. The 18 of his 20 were defensive. So they didn't really clean up on the offensive board. But I actually think we're going to talk about the bigs here in a second, but I actually thought their defense was pretty good tonight overall. I thought it was okay. Like, it was good enough to win. I didn't think it was like their brand of strong defense, which is obviously really tough to ask for without BAM. Because as we know, it's a big drop off. And look, shout out to Orlando and Thomas. I'm not trying to shade them in any way. They did their job tonight. Like, they stepped in and were passable and gay. Hopefully those guys have had threes recently and it's like, you know, they're giving you interior scoring. So you want your glad and you take them being out there. And not just taking up space, but actually like scoring down there, right? But yeah, the whole point to me was just they played OK defense and sometimes it wasn't great. And I thought the offense had fallen off after I started really well and Terry was what got them through. Jimmy was just kind of the steady one throughout the game. But Terry's extra layer of chaos is what changed everything. I like you say extra layer of chaos because that is what it feels like with Terry. It's got to be this kind of controlled chaos with him. There's an unpredictability for him, which I think is good for Miami because they don't have a lot of that in their offense. Caleb provides some of it, but he didn't tonight. He was one of seven from the floor, all four from three and we saw that hitch come back a couple times. I want to get to the bigs, though, Brady, because if you look overall, they basically went with three. Yovitch essentially played back up five when it mattered. But Brian, 15 minutes, was it six points, 10 rebounds, nine on the defensive end. Orlando Robinson, I actually thought gave them good minutes tonight, 13 minutes, three or four from the floor. Ended up with what was it, eight points and two rebounds and Yovitch. When Yovitch doesn't think when he just, and it's just catch and shoot goes up with it. He had one who was a little trickier, actually, the step back, which he's becoming more proficient at. He can really shoot the ball when he just doesn't think about it. And he ended up 14 and six, four of 10 from three. Go through those three guys tonight. Yeah, so I'll say, I mean, everyone Thomas Bryant has been placed in this role for a little bit down. It feels like he's, he's brought the energy. I mean, he's brought the offensive. Like he's not getting in the way of the offense. I don't feel like he's rebounded. Well, I mean, the one problem is going to be the problem that it's always going to be. And it feels like the defense in terms of the fact that you can get that ball over the top of him pretty easily and picking roles like it just, it just is what it is. So we saw that a little bit, but he's brought enough energy. Now you look at another guy that you mentioned, Orlando Robinson, you're, I think a lot of people kind of look you around and it's like, should this be the guy that's playing behind Vam without Kevin Love? Because he looked pretty good. He looked pretty solid. I thought offensively in terms of like the way he was building them out of some possessions. Like there were some ugly possessions where they just gave it to Orlando and he just kind of spun and pivoted and threw it in a hook shot or something and it was like, you know, they could use that. That's not, that's not the worst thing in the world, but it's, you're kind of picking. It almost feels like you're picking the guy that's in the better rhythm offensively because they're both going to be pretty, you know, similar defensively in terms of the style they're playing and, you know, the same thing I just said about Thomas is pretty similar because Orlando is not going to be super active and moving around defensively. So, no credit to Orlando because we're going to talk about Terry and Jimmy and a lot of these guys that helped down the stretch, but Orlando helped in like real pockets that first have to get them the original lead. And then as you mentioned with Yovich, he's such an interesting player to talk about because I like the fact that he's getting the volume up from three. I mean, getting up 10 threes in a game like this, when they needed shooting, that's not an easy thing to do for a player like him. Usually, like, it feels like it's hard to tell Yovich to get up a bunch of shots because he doesn't like doing it. Like, it's just not him. It's not his game. He's so passive. He's such a creator. So, to see him play that spot up role and get their shots up and hit 40% of them, you'll take that. And like you said, that one step back thing when he, that was a perfect example of what you said. Like, that was a perfect example of him not thinking. Like, he just did not think he's like, okay, I'm going to get into my shot. I'm going to get into this step back. And that's a tough shot. And I'd say the other thing I would, I would mention with Yovich, you know, we were joking around about it on playback and talking about, but he does have these moments of switching on a smaller guys. And he's able to just stay with them and contest. Well, which a lot of these possessions would probably be fouls in the past. Like, he just was, yeah, you kind of all over the place with that. Or now he's kind of doing the side contest. He's kind of staying straight up and down on drives. So you got to like the stuff that you're seeing there, especially this is as much as we talk about when they're fully healthy and talk about lineups. Yovich is better for those lineups. He's better for when they're fully healthy. Like, he doesn't feel like a player to me, even like Terry. Terry's a player in this game. That should do things. That should be really good where Yovich feels like a system player with a fully healthy roster. So I think he gave him what they needed today. See, I think that's what's been so hard here. And I don't think we focused on this enough. The fact that they've had 33 starting lineups. And now again, they're starting Patty Mills, who they pulled in off the basically off the street because he wasn't playing Atlanta. It's a lot right. Who got some minutes tonight? I thought he actually had some pretty decent minutes, even on the offensive end tonight. I think the issue here is that guys are not able to be instinctive because they're always in different roles. You're basically telling guys, if everybody's healthy, okay, Yovich, this is what we need you to do with this group, right? Or even Hawkez or some of the others. And then it's like, okay, all those guys are gone. So now we need you to do more. And I agree that the one guy who suited to do that is Rosier because he basically was playing with this kind of roster, like you mentioned in Charlotte. So it's just like, okay, go back to what you were doing. But the rest of these guys, this whole culture thing is to be selfless, right? To try to fit in, to try to make your best players better. The best players have not played enough games together this year. So that ends up throwing these guys into different roles. I think we've seen it where on Hawkez, I think it's created some confusion for Yovich. And I don't know that they're ever going to get healthy. It doesn't seem like, and it seems like three guys go in and three guys go out the whole season. The one guy who it's like, Caleb, it's just, they just tell them to run around and make plays, okay? So I don't feel like it affects them that much. But I do think if you're a young player like Yovich or Hawkez, it's complicated. It is. It's like, I mean, Hawkez is in Sacramento and it's like, okay, Jimmy's not there. We need you to take over. But this other game, well, you're going to be out there with Jimmy. So Jimmy's going to get those reps. And the other game, Jimmy's not there, but we're going to feature Dunkin' More. I just think it's been really complicated for these guys to kind of just get comfortable because everybody's in and out. And that's why, no matter who's out the rest of the season, I just want to see them have a consistent nine. Just like, okay, let's say Kevin Love, I believe is going to be back. But let's say Kevin Love's out, okay? Let's say Tyler's out for the rest of the year, whatever it is. This is who our nine is. This is what your role is. They have not been able to do that this season. And that actually is a good place for us to kind of get into the injury port here because they've got some interesting games coming up. And now it's time for the official five on the floor injury report sponsored by our friend Eric Rubenstein, the personal injury attorney. Born and raised in Lauderdale, Florida, lives in Miami, went to St. Thomas. He's a South Florida guy and a huge Miami Heat fan. But the important thing is he can help you get your money that you deserve when something happens to you. So reach out to our guy, Eric Rubenstein, again, Eric Rubenstein.com, or ask about me. I got you on Instagram. And now the injury report. All right, as I mentioned, 33rd starting lineup of the year 33rd. So basically one starting lineup for every two games. This season, this one featured Patty Mills, who we didn't jinx him too badly. He played a lot of minutes tonight. He played more minutes in the first half than anybody else. I don't think Patty would have believed that that was going to be the case on March 20th of the 35th year of his life. But here's who did not play tonight. So still no Kevin Love. I thought maybe he might join the team in Cleveland. He's still got a lot of friends and business in Cleveland. There was a day off in between. He didn't. So we'll see if he's back Wednesday. They've got interesting games coming up against team, pretty hot team. Pelicans been playing very well lately. Then they get the Cavs again, who may be a little healthier by then. We'll see if Mitchell's back. And then they get the Warriors. So they've got teams that are all playing for something coming into Miami over the next three. Hero, no real update there other than I'm not expecting to see him before the last week of the regular season at the earliest. But again, we'll see how that plays out. Duncan went back to Miami to see a back specialist. Bolshier qualified him his day to day. It's never a good sign. We'll see what that comes in. Bam out now. This latest injury. What was it today? Was it not the hip again? What was it, Alex? Do we even know what this? Was this lower lower back? Lower back this time. Okay, so lower back for Bam. And again, Jimmy played tonight. Let's just get to this Alex. The one who came back. Jimmy, we've talked about his overall play. Did you see any limitations here tonight? Because I thought he had pretty good bounce. No, I thought he looked pretty. He like a pretty spry out there for his standards regular season wise, right? Like he was out there making plays for steals. And like you mentioned before, I think finish a four steals. Like that's usually a great sign that he's feeling good. And I thought he seemed pretty effortless for him on the offensive side. Like it never felt like he was really pressing. And you know, there's plenty of guys with this calves roster the way they are right now that he could pick on. And I think smaller guys and even some of the bigger guys like me and just really can't keep up with him. And I thought he was getting to his points pretty easily. So no, I mean, everything with Jimmy to me was positive tonight. Like we had wanted to see him play good against good teams. And yeah, the calves are depleted. But like we talked about on this episode, like this is a big game for them, even if it's not a playoff simulation. I'm sure Jimmy doesn't want to have to play the extra games too. And, you know, the playing games and all that. And, you know, I know at the end of the day, like he'll do it. He doesn't care, right? He'll always think that he'd have a chance. But it's like why put yourself in that position. And I think you said earlier, he did just enough, right? Like he didn't have like an amazing game, but he was like just enough to get you through. And then Terry is just kind of the one who took it home. But, and then you know which I thought you know which played pretty well too. And it's definitely good that you got those guys back and playing well with them going out because it's obviously just a huge loss there and already with love and hero out and now Duncan as well. So, you know, they shot 36% from three tonight. Like that is a win. 13 of 36 for the heat from three with like the guys that they had missing is a win. Also that one shot from Jimmy. I would, I just wanted to say real quickly that the one shot from Jimmy, like, like with 40 seconds left where he like had to readjust the ball and shoot that baseline fade away like that's that probably won't get talked about because we're talking about those Terry shots late, but like that's a very tough shot like to hit that point in the game. So, like he delivered what it mattered. I mean, when he comes back, you realize how good he is when he's engaged. I just, you know, this is this whole thing is built on him. It's all built on him. Like that's we've talked about other stuff the whole year. It does not matter. If he's not on the court, not healthy and not engaged. It's just the whole thing falls apart. Let me throw a question at you here, Brady. Obviously, Bam is critically important. We know that we'll see what his injury status is and obviously we're not expecting Tyler to be back for these next three of the homestand. I was to say to you, you can get one back here. One back love or Duncan for the next three games. Because I know how you felt about Kevin loves absence and how that's hurt this team. But put the pieces together here. Who do they need more right now? Or does it depend on whether Bam is healthy or not? It's Duncan. It's Duncan right now. I think they just, I look at these games like they're not going to be able to gritty their way. Not like actually when I say gritty. It feels weird. But they can't use that grit throughout the game. Is that two T two T's or two D's? I think you can use it as a verb if it's two T's. But not if it's two T's. Although you just invented that, but that's what I'm going to eat and knowing what that means. I didn't know I looked at Alex. I didn't know everything you guys don't think I know. So that's it. Did you see my hat? I got this hat. This is my daughter. Hold on. I'll show you. I'll show you this head for. I'm old, but I'm like cool old. There you go. Oh, man, that's the oldest thing you ever done. Anyway, I'll just say, I think it's just because of the spacing stuff like they legit need him to score. They're not going to be able to have these Terry bail out moments and they're not definitely not going to have Jimmy scoring 30 every day for them in the regular season. They need Duncan Robinson to open up the offense and look, there was like three pockets of this game where they legit just almost through the game away. It was the final, it's the first quarter, the final two minutes, the second quarter, and then it was like a minute span and the fourth where they gave up like back to back threes in like 20 seconds like it was like six points like that. You just can't have that like so so the Duncan would would kind of be the guy that you'd ideally want back and look, the back injury thing is is a scary thing just because it comes and goes like it's just you don't know when it's going to come back so I think if I could just have one guy back healthy it'd be done for effort shooter to my first shooter like a back injury for a shooter who's who's pro who's running more on the court than pretty much anybody else to and running through screens, taking contact people don't think of it that way because he's not a high volume finisher at the rim but he's he's creating contact to find shots and it's it's not an ideal situation like to me I saw that I'm like just don't be a hard herniated disc don't be something that serious we don't want to get one of those press releases you know the ones that come at certain point. I think I jinxed him because what did I call him the most consistent reliable performer on the team and he went out right after so I'm not going to say anything else about it. Going forward we'll see which of the guys is back for Wednesday night with three of us will all be there on Wednesday night actually on Tuesday Friday night Friday night Friday night against pelicans. First time that Jimmy's going to see the pelicans since that little skirmish so we'll see what what he has for Jose Alvarado and the rest of that crew and then and then gold state Cleveland gold state coming up so again an interesting home stand. There are no great teams that the heater playing going forward but there's a lot of good teams and the heat of had trouble with good teams this year we know that although they did beat the pelicans last time.
