Is the 2nd Saturday game supposed to be Detroit @ Milwaukee? It'd be kind of amazing if the Jazz were able to play two games at the same time.

The game is right but the date is wrong. Fixed! It's a Monday game. I base the schedule off this 2019-20 NBA TV Schedule page. If there are at least six TNT/ESPN/ABC games I use those. If less I pick up NBA TV games in order.

OMG! The Monday game is classified as a Saturday game in my picks! Whatever will I do?
