00:00 We just got really good news on LA, by the way.
00:02 He is finished with all of his chemo sessions.
00:05 He's been declared cancer free.
00:07 And they told him within days, he can start practicing.
00:11 So three or four days, he can return to practice.
00:14 I told him the only problem is,
00:16 I said, "The only problem is, LA, you're not on the list."
00:19 (laughing)
00:22 So we can't include you in the national team.
00:23 And we would have, I would have.
00:24 I would have put him on the Asian Games team
00:27 if he had been on the list,
00:28 'cause he knows our system better than anybody.
00:31 And he would have been a great scion.
00:33 He's not on the list.
00:35 So we can't include him.
00:36 But he's on the list to be coach.
00:38 So we have his presence there and inspire.
00:41 So he was with us through the first three days of camp,
00:43 then left to go to Singapore to do his last therapy,
00:47 to do his PET scan.
00:48 It's all good news.
00:49 Now he'll come back.
00:50 He'll be inspired for practice, he said.
