[tmann3x]

(lights come back on)

Okay, who forgot to pay the light bill? (audience laughs) I knew that would be an electric performance. But then that happens, really?!?!

(more laughter)

Kinda feels like that Spurs game at Memphis in the first round of the playoffs. Spurs play lights out -- and then a power surge followed.
(more laughter) It would've been really funny if Mike O'Malley were the public address announcer.

(more laughter)

Well -- before we say goodnight, we want to wrap this up in a big way -- with a big performance from a big fan of the NBA's Toronto Raptors.

(audience cheers)

You already know who I'm talking about. From Toronto, Ontario, Canada -- please keep cheering for DRAKE!!!

(audience cheers)

(Drake takes the stage)



Drake: Yo, yo, yo, gonna have to keep it clean.




You used to call me on my
You used to, you used to
Yeah

You used to call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
Call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
And I know when that hotline bling
That can only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling
That can only mean one thing

Ever since I left the city,
You got a reputation for yourself now
Everybody knows and I feel left out
Girl you got me down, you got me stressed out
'Cause ever since I left the city,
you started wearing less and goin' out more
Glasses of champagne out on the dance floor
Hangin' with some girls I've never seen before

You used to call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
Call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
I know when that hotline bling
That can only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling
That can only mean one thing

Ever since I left the city, you, you, you
You and me we just don't get along
You make me feel like I did you wrong
Going places where you don't belong
Ever since I left the city,
you, you got exactly what you asked for
Running out of pages in your passport
Hanging with some girls I've never seen before

You used to call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
Call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
And I know when that hotline bling
That can only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling
That can only mean one thing

These days, all I do is
Wonder if you're bendin' over backwards for someone else
Wonder if you're rollin' up a backwoods for someone else
Doing things I taught you, gettin' nasty for someone else
You don't need no one else
You don't need nobody else, no
Why you never alone
Why you always touching road
Used to always stay at home, be a good girl
You was in a zone, yeah
You should just be yourself
Right now, you're someone else

You used to call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
Call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
And I know when that hotline bling
That can only mean one thing
I know when that hotline bling
That can only mean one thing

Ever since I left the city

(audience cheers)

Thank you, Drake, for keeping it clean. May your Raptors meet my Spurs in the Finals.

Ladies and gentleman, that is it for the 2016 Net Game Awards. Keep playing, keep having fun, keep laughing -- and, of course, keep the faith and keep treasuring your loved ones.

Good night, everybody!

Mark: (VO) Transportation for the Net Game Awards and CBS provided by Delta Air Lines. Now, Delta Comfort+ is even easier to book. For flights departing on or after May 16, 2016, within the U.S. 50 and Canada, Delta Comfort+ is now a booking option. That means you can enjoy it all the way to your destination rather than upgrading separately for each leg of your trip. Delta Comfort+ by Delta, keep climbing.





Accommodations for tonight's telecast provided by Park Hyatt® New York, the flagship hotel of the globally recognized Park Hyatt® brand offering unprecedented amenities in the heart of Midtown, Manhattan. With a premier address at West 57th Street, Park Hyatt® New York is located across the street from Carnegie Hall, a block away from Central Park and just steps from Fifth Avenue.




For the 2016 Net Game Awards, this is Mark Liotta speaking. Now, except on the West Coast, stay tuned for a special encore of the Limitless season finale, next over most of these CBS stations.
