This is Clippers 2 00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:10.080 Locker Road, brought to you by Cedars Sinai, the official health partner of 3 00:00:10.119 --> 00:00:15.199 the LA Clippers, and by Patschonga, official travel casino of the LA Clippers. 4 00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:19.399 Breaking down today's action with the pre and post game voice. If you're 5 00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:23.800 LA Clippers, They're locking in every game, every night. Adam Osland. 6 00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:31.719 The Clippers were down sixteen in the first quarter in the Wolves Den in Minnesota. 7 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:37.840 They come back to win eighty nine to eighty eight through defense and clutch 8 00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:42.399 shots from Kawhi Leonard and Norman Powell. Welcome into your postgame show. I'm 9 00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:46.320 Adam Oslin. Coming up, we will have clipperstock on AM five to seventy 10 00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:49.920 LA Sports if you want to get on early eight six six ninety seven two 11 00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:54.399 five seventy eight six six nine seven two five seventy. But first let's pause 12 00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:59.039 ten seconds for station identification. Here on Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network, this 13 00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:06.079 is Clippers Basketball AM five to seventy KLAC Los Angeles ninety eight seven KYSR HD 14 00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:11.200 two Los Angeles and iHeartRadio Station. Let's get back out to your radio voice 15 00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:17.599 of the Clippers in Carlo Jimenez from Target centser, what a gritty, gutty 16 00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:22.640 victory, maybe their best win of the season, considering they only scored eighty 17 00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:26.519 nine points, their defense flexed, and they were able to take down a 18 00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:29.400 team that was two to zero against them. Carlo, I mean, just 19 00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:34.319 gutsy stuff from the Clippers to come back to never be phased. Norman powerly 20 00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:37.760 got it going for them, nine for thirteen within twenty four points. They 21 00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:42.079 held Minnesota for eight for twenty two in the fourth quarter and Adam, they 22 00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:47.680 scored their season low and a one upball game. You want to talk about 23 00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:51.480 doing it on the defensive end. James Harden zero for ten in this one, 24 00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:56.040 but his tenn assists were massive down the stretch and the Clippers got it 25 00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:59.040 done. I thought it was really interesting what Norman or excuse me, what 26 00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:01.799 Terrence Man said on our postgame interview. The Clippers took this personally. They 27 00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:07.280 did. They heard and saw the tweets they talked about the tim Wolves calling 28 00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:09.800 him old and washed, and they took that to heart. I think that 29 00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:15.400 means a lot, because we've seen this team when things are said outside of 30 00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:19.759 the lines about their themselves. And some trash dock goes back and forth and 31 00:02:19.800 --> 00:02:22.639 Adam that seems to poke the bear, and it is usually not fun for 32 00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:25.120 the opponent. No, it's not. I just love the fact that the 33 00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:30.199 Clippers were able to win this in an unorthodox fashion, a team with the 34 00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:34.800 Hall of Famers and the Big Three, even without Russell Westbrook. Right now, 35 00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:38.719 James Harden doesn't make a shot oh of ten from the field, oh 36 00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:43.199 of six from distance, but that and one play he created out of the 37 00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:47.199 ato from coach lou to Kawhi Leonard another assist from James Harden. There he 38 00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:53.479 had ten assists to just one turnover. Paul George just five of sixteen, 39 00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:58.879 two big buckets in the fourth quarter, and spectacular defense on his best friend 40 00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:02.919 in Karl Anthony Towns, who at one point missed ten straight shots. It 41 00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:07.280 was so so good. Towns looked like he was going for a career day. 42 00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.479 It was five for five to start the game. The Clippers couldn't find 43 00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:14.000 an answer. At twelve points in the first quarter, he had six the 44 00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:17.719 next three quarters combined. Clippers did a great job stopping them. Edwards has 45 00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:21.439 It's had his moments, but I think they made it tough. I mean 46 00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:25.240 nine for twenty to get to twenty seven points, and they gave up twelve 47 00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:30.639 offensive rebounds but held it to thirteen second chance points. The Clippers had fourteen 48 00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:35.360 second chance points on their seven timely offensive rebounds. It was a big time 49 00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:38.319 win for the Clippers at him who let's give him a lot of credit. 50 00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:40.719 In the second half, they did not turn the battle over a lot finished 51 00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:44.800 with just nine We talked about how important that was. You have mentioned how 52 00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:49.560 they've been averaging fifteen turnovers since the Grammy road trip. This is the Clipper 53 00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.800 offense we're used to when it comes to not turning the ball over. Now, 54 00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:55.120 I think it's time to talk about the King of the Fourth Norman Pale 55 00:03:55.439 --> 00:04:00.759 stepping up into a ball game where he had fourteen points in less than the 56 00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:03.960 first ten minutes. He was out there in the first half and just completely 57 00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:09.159 changed the complexion of the game. It looked like the Clippers might lose this 58 00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:12.039 one by thirty. Instead, all of a sudden, they had a four 59 00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:14.919 point lead at the half. A lot of that was due to Norman Powell. 60 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.759 I mean, he had half the team's points after the first quarter. 61 00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:24.959 His offensive shooting was unbelievable. Think about the three Adam to bank it at 62 00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.480 the end of the third A three pointer of that counts and the Clippers only 63 00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:33.040 win by one. Every single shot was so big for Norman pal the windmill 64 00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:38.000 dunk. He was feeling himself. Look, if the Clippers take on this 65 00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:41.199 Minnesota team in the playoffs, you've got to imagine they're gonna get a hand 66 00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:45.839 up to Norman Pale, because Norman Pal now has his season high. Both 67 00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:48.480 times the Clippers have been to the Target Center. Something about this building. 68 00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:50.839 I don't know if the sight lines, I don't know if it's the crowd, 69 00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:55.040 I don't know if it's the food. But he loves shooting here in 70 00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:59.600 Minnesota. Norman pal twenty four savage as they like to call him, the 71 00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:02.839 King of the as we like to call him. Coach Lou stayed with Daniel 72 00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:08.000 Tys late. He wanted that spacing on offense. And while Tys didn't knock 73 00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:11.040 down a three pointer, just the threat of having him out there meant something. 74 00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:14.680 And by the way, Rudy Gobert had a rebound go through his hands 75 00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.920 late with three Clippers surrounding him. They were doing it by committee. They 76 00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:21.800 ended up yes, getting out rebounded fifty four to forty, but when you 77 00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:26.920 only have nine turnovers in the ball game, as they did, that can 78 00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:30.279 make up for that. And I thought daniel Tys more than held his own 79 00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:32.560 with his thirteen boards. Yeah, I thought he was great and this one 80 00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:36.800 some big time offensive rebounds hanging onto the basketball. Yeah, he didn't shoot 81 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:40.600 a three, but again we talked about it with Tyler lou. His ability 82 00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:45.560 to make threes forces go Bear to be out on the perimeter and neutralizes his 83 00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:48.839 shot blocking ability if you can dump it into the post. Clippers, once 84 00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:53.000 again, I mean daniel Ty's part of that group. Three turnovers in the 85 00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:58.720 second half. That seemed to be the difference because Minnesota had thirteen points off 86 00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:00.040 those nine turnovers. But if you're you're not going to throw it away, 87 00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:04.560 then you don't give an opportunity to score running the other way. It's two 88 00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:09.199 teams that don't run up and down the floor, that rely on their defensive 89 00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:13.160 end and rely on their superstars. And this felt like a playoff battle in 90 00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:16.560 a playoff type atmosphere was a full building on this Sunday afternoon, and the 91 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:21.600 Clippers, with James Harden having an off night, of offensively still get it 92 00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:27.279 done. An impressive win. Doesn't get any easier than Milwaukee. Tomorrow, 93 00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:31.120 the Clippers will be in Milwaukee taking on the books. As Carlo just mentioned, 94 00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:38.399 tip time at five against the Milwaukee Bucks. Clippers pregame show Clippers countdowns 95 00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:42.480 starting right back here at four, Carlo, hell of a call, safe 96 00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:45.680 travels to Milwaukee. We'll talk to you tomorrow. My friend can't wait to 97 00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:47.800 talk to you tomorrow. I don't see if the Clippers can get the hardest 98 00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:51.160 back to back of the year with two wins. What opportunity that would be 99 00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:55.920 ay two to zero to start off March so far, so far, their 100 00:06:55.959 --> 00:07:00.639 own version of March Madness was seventeen games and thirty one game, and so 101 00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:03.439 far they're undefeated. We'll see if they can keep it going tomorrow. Coming 102 00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:09.040 up next here at your postgame show. We got second half highlights. The 103 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:13.680 Clippers came back down sixteen in the first quarter. I put it out there 104 00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:17.639 hashtag comeback clips. It was an early one. It happened. Norman pal 105 00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:21.600 finishes with twenty four kawhi with thirty two, seventeen of those in the second 106 00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:26.839 half, and the Clippers win by one in Minnesota over the Tea Wolves eighty 107 00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:30.959 nine to eighty eight.

Let's get to your second half highlights. Clippers 117 00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:22.000 were down sixteen to the first quarter. Norman Palell completely turned the game around. 118 00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:26.079 The trajectory of this one. It looked like it was going to be 119 00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:30.639 an early blowout and the Clippers will be resting bodies for Milwaukee tomorrow. Instead, 120 00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:33.840 Norm had fourteen points in the first ten minutes. He was out there 121 00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:37.159 on the court, and the Clippers led at the half forty nine to forty 122 00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:41.759 six, a three point lead in that third quarter after having fifteen in the 123 00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:46.840 first half. The claw Kawhi Leonard kept it going in the third. George 124 00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:50.399 and the baseline barges on Edwards spins, fires a pass to Leonard at the 125 00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.519 top pump fakes a three, turns the corner in and out cross fades. 126 00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:56.039 A right wing mid range jay is up and in for Kawhi, and a 127 00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:01.360 fan in a black Kawhi jersey stands and claps hands. Here in Minnesota looking 128 00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:03.879 for a win on this front end of the bank to bank. Guess who's 129 00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:09.159 waiting just Milwaukee tomorrow night. Leonard Sigson tags in the paint and lays it 130 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:13.000 up with the right hand for two. Clippers five for seven in the or 131 00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:16.399 excuse me, two for nine here in the quarter. Kawhi Leonard had half 132 00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.639 of their points in the third quarter. They only scored eighteen. He had 133 00:09:20.720 --> 00:09:24.440 nine of them, but Minnesota only had twenty two and three of those points 134 00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:26.639 from the Clippers in the period they came at the very end of the shot 135 00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:31.639 clock. It was Norman Powell knocking down a three pointer. This is what 136 00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:33.399 he does. The King of the fourth n kept it going. In the 137 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:37.799 final period, Edward's left elbow into the paint among the blue Jerseys, throws 138 00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:41.120 a past the no man's land, Normous Steele, No one's in front. 139 00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:48.840 He's gonna win mil it in Norman Powell with some elevation sensation. He ties 140 00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:54.120 his season high with twenty four. Norman pal had seven points in that fourth 141 00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:58.679 quarter. Kawhi Leonard, though, would come up with this huge bucket out 142 00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:03.039 of a time out late, right elbow extended, holds it over his head, 143 00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:05.320 looks for a friend in blue back to Hearten at the top back door 144 00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:11.279 Leonard goes up and the foul Leonard the hoop in the harm and the claw 145 00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:16.080 let chance for one more let, chance for thirty. Kawhi Leonard would get 146 00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:18.559 the and one. He would add eight of his thirty two points in the 147 00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:24.559 fourth quarter, including some clutch free throws late to put the Clippers up by 148 00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:30.440 three. They hold on and win eighty nine to eighty eight in Minnesota over 149 00:10:30.519 --> 00:10:33.039 the Timberwolves.

The Clippers just won a back basketball game where 159 00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:22.440 they shot thirty eight percent from the field. The t Wolves weren't much better, 160 00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:26.200 though they were at thirty nine percent. The Clippers just ten of thirty 161 00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:31.960 four from the outside, the t Wolves just nine of thirty three. Paul 162 00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:37.279 George and James Harden combined to go just five of twenty six from the field. 163 00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:39.639 James Harden didn't make a shot PG thirteen was just five of sixteen. 164 00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:46.000 They still found a way. Kawhi Leonard had thirty two fifteen in the first 165 00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:50.480 half, seventeen in the second half, eight in the fourth quarter.

He went nine to 171 00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:18.480 thirteen from the field, and in a game where the Clippers couldn't hit anything 172 00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:22.320 from the outside outside of Norman Powell at least, he was six of eight 173 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:28.240 from three. Unbelievable, somehow, some way, and they give up just 174 00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:35.200 two points in the fourth quarter total to Anthony Edwards that basically were inconsequential window 175 00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:39.200 dressing. Clippers win eighty nine to eighty eight over Ant and the Tea Wolves. 176 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:43.399 Their next game, they're in Milwaukee.

There's a 188 00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:43.039 saying that old age and treachery will always beat youth and exuberance. I want 189 00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:48.240 to hold on to that one. Anthony Edwards as the old legs of the 190 00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:54.039 Clippers beat up on his Timberwolves eighty nine to eighty eight after they were down 191 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:58.919 by sixteen in the first quarter. Welcome in a Clippers Talk. I'm Adam 192 00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:03.960 Oslin six nine seven two five seventy each sixty six ninety seven two five seventy 193 00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:07.000 is the phone number if you'd like to get on.

Also William Updyke will join me from Clips in Dip. 196 00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:22.440 What a comeback and it was one. You're down sixteen points, on the 197 00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:26.879 brink of being knocked out in the first quarter, in a place, in 198 00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:31.120 a team you were zero and two against, in the Minnesota Timberwolves, the 199 00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:35.919 best team in the West. We'll update you on the Western Conference standings coming 200 00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:41.759 up. The Clippers looked like they had nothing. They were d a to 201 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:46.200 start this game. Outside of I think a couple of buckets from Kawhi Leonard, 202 00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:52.519 nobody else could hit. It was brutal. I thought we were heading 203 00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:54.919 for a blowout where Coach Lou was gonna have to wave the white flag early 204 00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:01.799 and get this team ready for Milwaukee tomorrow. But it was early enough to 205 00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:07.240 say some of that hashtag comeback clips magic could still be in effect. Sure, 206 00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:13.840 they were down sixteen to two after a Jade McDaniel stunk, but Kawhi 207 00:15:13.159 --> 00:15:18.679 Leonard answered with a three pointer. He was ready to go. He was 208 00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:24.480 one of the few in this game that was ready. From the outset the 209 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:28.519 other guy, Norman Powell. The Clippers are down twenty two to seven with 210 00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:33.039 five minutes left in the third quarter. He gets into the ballgame for Terrace 211 00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:41.120 man and immediately knocks down back to back three pointers. The Clippers go from 212 00:15:41.159 --> 00:15:46.879 being down by sixteen early to having a game within reach. You're down twelve 213 00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:54.039 entering the second and then they go on a sixteen to all run and norn 214 00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:58.799 Fous started the second quarter off with a three pointer, Daniel Tice a putback 215 00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:03.600 to Paul George finally got one to go. It was a three, got 216 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:07.399 a couple of them, Norm Powell a little floater, and all of a 217 00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:15.159 sudden, after being down sixteen in the span of about seven minutes, the 218 00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:22.000 Clippers were up thirty one to thirty. Unbelievable, right back into the ballgame. 219 00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:26.879 And it wasn't just Norm Powell and it wasn't just to make shots. 220 00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:33.519 It was the defense they played. The Minnesota Timberwolves did not score till the 221 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:37.000 seven to forty six mark of the second quarter. In that period, the 222 00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:45.919 Clippers held them almost five minutes scoreless. They accepted the challenge, Oh, 223 00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.720 shots aren't falling. I guess we have to find another way to win. 224 00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:52.840 We'll win through our defense. In this one, they score season low eighty 225 00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:59.519 nine points and still win the ballgame against the Minnesota Timberwolves as good as they 226 00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:03.840 are defense nsively Minnesota number one defense, and it's really not that close, 227 00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:07.160 and they've been in that position all season long with the defensive rating just seventeenth. 228 00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:15.319 Offensively, you can slow them down. When the Clippers are able to 229 00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:18.359 set their defense and they're not turning the basketball over, they can be a 230 00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:25.160 lead on that end. Their weakness is transition defense. But when you only 231 00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:32.039 have nine turnovers total, you can win any ball game. The Timberwolves had 232 00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:41.119 fifteen. The Clippers scored twenty points off those fifteen turnovers, tremendous. The 233 00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:44.680 Clippers ended up getting beat up in the paint forty four to thirty six, 234 00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:48.359 getting beat up on the boards fifty four to forty. The Wolves had twelve 235 00:17:48.400 --> 00:17:53.839 offensive rebounds to the Clippers having seven. The Wolves even shot a slightly better 236 00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:57.640 percentage than the Clippers thirty nine percent to thirty eight percent for the Clippers. 237 00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:03.039 Clippers may one more three pointer ten of thirty four Wolves were nine of thirty 238 00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:07.359 three, and the Clippers hit some clutch free throws late, Kawhi Leonard with 239 00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:12.599 two big ones after he had missed one earlier in the fourth quarter after he 240 00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:18.759 just missed a shot over. Mike Conley had the mismatch probably made it tougher 241 00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:23.599 than needed to be double clutch it. But Rudy Gobert, who the Clippers 242 00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:29.039 were going somewhat small against, you could say because instead of beats a Zubats 243 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:33.880 who did struggle, felt like he should have gotten the basketball more. Daniel 244 00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:37.480 Tice played twenty nine minutes, just four points, zero four from the outside, 245 00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:41.319 two of seven from the field, whatevs. He had thirteen boards, 246 00:18:41.480 --> 00:18:48.359 four offensive rebounds and challenged Rudy Gobert, who missed an offensive rebound late in 247 00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:56.000 the ballgame that was crucial that ended up going off Minnesota. As good as 248 00:18:56.000 --> 00:19:00.319 he is the Stifel Tower that was one he was kicking himself about late. 249 00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:07.319 Still had twelve and sixteen, but the Clippers, they tried to test him. 250 00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:11.960 Kawhi let him got into the paint. No Moan Powell, but in 251 00:19:12.000 --> 00:19:18.720 a game where Paul George was just five of sixteen, now three of his 252 00:19:18.839 --> 00:19:21.519 makes were from the outside, and he hit some big ones in the fourth 253 00:19:21.599 --> 00:19:26.319 quarter early on. But James Harden goes zh of ten and the Clippers still 254 00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:33.559 scratching claw with a k their way to a victory. Unreal and don't get 255 00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:40.039 it twisted. James Harden had ten assists to one turnover, and the assist 256 00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:44.279 to Kawhi on the n one out of the time out a great ato by 257 00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:48.319 coach Lou That really was the go ahead, biggest bucket of the ball game. 258 00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:52.319 So he took care of the basketball. He couldn't get anything to go. 259 00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:56.440 He had some good looks, a miss three pointer on the left wing 260 00:19:56.519 --> 00:19:59.920 late in the fourth quarter, wide open. Paul George was missing some white 261 00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:04.400 open It wasn't just that Minnesota was playing elite defense, which they do. 262 00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:14.119 Clippers couldn't hit open shots when they presented themselves. But Kawhi is that good. 263 00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:17.799 He leads them with thirty two Norman pal what else can you say? 264 00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:22.440 King of the fourth, twenty four savage twenty four points in this one, 265 00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:30.759 six of eight from three. The rest of the team goes four to fifteen 266 00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:37.000 from three. I don't know, four of nineteen from three. Norman Powell 267 00:20:37.079 --> 00:20:42.000 goes six of eight. That's the difference in the game. No Norman Powell, 268 00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:45.400 no victory. Hope he's okay. Might have hurt himself in that windmill 269 00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:51.920 dunk. Really hope he's okay. After that he was grimacing. But the 270 00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:56.759 steal and score in the fourth quarter and throwing it down emphatically like that. 271 00:20:56.920 --> 00:21:02.039 Oh loved seeing it. In Milwaukee. Tomorrow is the front end of one 272 00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:06.039 of the toughest back to backs you'll see on any team schedule this season. 273 00:21:06.880 --> 00:21:11.359 They'll be taking on Janis and Denikoopo and the Bucks tomorrow after they get a 274 00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:15.119 victory against a team they were zero and to against, got b by twenty 275 00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:19.920 one last time out at home against and a team that just lost in ot 276 00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:26.319 to the Sacramento Kings. But there was a stat out there. Carlojmenez had 277 00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:33.960 it, and it's that the Clippers are now after this one, improving to 278 00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:41.160 fifteen and four during clutch time since December first. A game in the last 279 00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:45.279 five minutes within five points, last five minutes within last within five points. 280 00:21:45.319 --> 00:21:52.440 The Clippers are fifteen to four since December first. The Wolves are now four 281 00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:56.160 and eleven since the start of the new year, and they couldn't get much 282 00:21:56.200 --> 00:22:02.039 to go and find their offense when they needed to, The Clippers showed up 283 00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:08.079 in crunch time. They have the best clutch rating this season, but got 284 00:22:08.079 --> 00:22:17.039 to give it up to Kawhi Leonard late Norman Powell Daniel Tice contesting everything at 285 00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:22.400 the rim doesn't matter if he has at a disadvantage. If there's a guy 286 00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:27.039 who has I don't know, eight inches on him and Rudy Gobert, Daniel 287 00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:33.559 ties to six to eight and he's playing small ball five. But just heart 288 00:22:33.599 --> 00:22:38.279 of a line love him. He got the minutes. No Mason Plumbley in 289 00:22:38.319 --> 00:22:44.880 this game, and the thought from coach Lou was, We're gonna use him 290 00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:48.440 to help spread the floor. On offense. He's at least a threat out 291 00:22:48.440 --> 00:22:52.079 there from three. He may have been over four, but Rudy Gobert had 292 00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:55.440 to respect him because he came into this one shooting forty percent from the outside 293 00:22:55.480 --> 00:23:00.359 from distance. So you're giving up something defensively, you could say. But 294 00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:07.880 on offense, the floor was more spread. Clippers come through, they win 295 00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:14.599 eighty nine to eighty eight. Let's start things off in Alabama. It's Michael, 296 00:23:14.640 --> 00:23:18.640 I believe on the line roll Clippers. Is it Michael, Yes, 297 00:23:18.680 --> 00:23:22.039 it's Michael and Roll Clippers. That's where I know war Eagle or anything else. 298 00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:27.240 Michael, you're calling in. I believe this is the first time we've 299 00:23:27.240 --> 00:23:30.680 had you here on Clippers. Talk. How you doing. I'm good. 300 00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:34.599 I've been a longtime listener follower on Twitter, so thanks for having me on 301 00:23:34.640 --> 00:23:41.319 this first time, long time listener, first time caller, Michael, What 302 00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:45.079 do you want to say after this victory? So I've been watching this team. 303 00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:49.880 I became a Clippers fan since I want to say, Summer fifteen during 304 00:23:49.880 --> 00:23:55.160 the Lop City air. This is the best I've felt about clutch time because 305 00:23:55.200 --> 00:24:00.640 I know we've seen some terrible clutch time performances in the most recently too with 306 00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:07.039 this team, and just overcoming these obstacles has been such a problem with different 307 00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:14.400 stuff, Paul George playing terribly offensively, James Harden not scoring a single field 308 00:24:14.440 --> 00:24:18.640 goal, but overcoming this makes me feel a lot better about our chances just 309 00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:22.519 to contend overall. So I'm happy with this win. I'm happy we got 310 00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:29.400 to just dethrone like Anthony Edwards after that last game, him embarrassing us on 311 00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:33.480 social media. So I'm happy for that. Yeah. Happy. He called 312 00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:38.160 this Clippers team old, but uh, I don't know. They looked fresher 313 00:24:38.240 --> 00:24:41.720 than him. He only had two points in that fourth quarter and it was 314 00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:47.920 a dunk at the very end that the Clippers conceded because they were trying to 315 00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:52.440 stop a three pointer. Interesting strategy there late for Minnesota. I also thought 316 00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:55.880 the Clippers could have intentionally fouled late to not even get up a three ball 317 00:24:56.839 --> 00:25:00.079 or not let the Minnesota Timberwolves take one. But all's well, that ends 318 00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:07.799 well, and the Clippers are now two and ohero in March seventeen games in 319 00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.680 March. It's their own version of March Madness. They start off two and 320 00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:15.599 oh. They got a game tomorrow in Milwaukee against the Bucks. And I 321 00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:21.680 do want to say this about PG thirteen before we break here. As bad 322 00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:25.880 as he was on offense at times, he was that good on the other 323 00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:30.200 end defensively, whether on Ant or on his bff Carl Anthony Towns, who 324 00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:36.759 at one point missed ten straight shots, believe he started five for five. 325 00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:41.319 Paul George is a two way player. He can still help you when he's 326 00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:45.279 struggling with a shot. A plus two in a game they win by one. 327 00:25:45.559 --> 00:25:47.880 Coming up next, more Clippers. Talk back to your phone calls here 328 00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:52.839 on a mPire seven, LA Sports loading Clippers fully loaded with Clippers fans. 329 00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:57.920 This is LA Clippers basketball. You're listening to the LA Clippers on the LA 330 00:25:59.000 --> 00:26:06.480 Clippers Audio Network. Poor appoint Minnesotaly. Two seconds here comes Dorman Pal left 331 00:26:06.519 --> 00:26:11.720 wings pizza, a horde of horn bason in Norman Pal circus shot to finish 332 00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:17.960 the quarterer s shavu. Here this hornet center. The King of the fourth 333 00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.920 got started early. Another buzzer beater to in the third quarter. That's a 334 00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:27.680 huge momentum swing. You go from being down four to being down one entering 335 00:26:27.680 --> 00:26:33.480 the fourth. Reminded of a big three pointer made by Paul George about the 336 00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:37.000 eight minute mark of the fourth quarter. Soon to we were talking about him 337 00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:41.160 going into the break. Our friend Tomarrizzarli, who joined me pre game on 338 00:26:41.240 --> 00:26:45.519 Clipper's countdown, posted that three pointer that he made over Carl Anthony Towns after 339 00:26:45.559 --> 00:26:48.960 bobbling it, almost losing the basketball, picked it up and put it in. 340 00:26:49.880 --> 00:26:52.640 Sometimes when you don't have to think about it was at the end of 341 00:26:52.640 --> 00:27:00.880 the shot clock, you can just be instinctual. PG thirteen struggles James Harden 342 00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:04.839 doesn't make a field goal and the Clippers just won in Minnesota eighty nine to 343 00:27:04.920 --> 00:27:08.960 eighty eight. Welcome back in the Clipper stock. I'm Adam Oslin eight sixty 344 00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:12.559 six ninety seven two five seventy is the phone number, Mark and Huyington Beach. 345 00:27:12.599 --> 00:27:15.920 We'll get to you since we weren't able to get to you last time 346 00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:18.880 out. Mark, what's up? Well, this morning I woke up and 347 00:27:18.920 --> 00:27:22.079 I just prayed to the basketball gods and said, all I want is one 348 00:27:22.119 --> 00:27:26.680 point victory. That's all, just a one point victory. I'd rather have 349 00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:30.200 an ugly loss than I mean, an ugly wind and an exciting loss. 350 00:27:30.640 --> 00:27:33.440 And that's what I got, thanks to the basketball gods. But you know, 351 00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:37.559 going back to the Russell Westbrook injury, I think this is a blessing 352 00:27:37.559 --> 00:27:40.799 in disguise because not only does it allow Bones Highland to get a lot of 353 00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:45.359 playtime, he can sharpen his sword and by the time Westbrook comes back, 354 00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:49.480 hopefully in April sometime, Bones will be in there right and ready, just 355 00:27:49.559 --> 00:27:55.000 in time for the playoffs, and he'll get all the experience and statistically correct 356 00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:57.359 me if I'm wrong, But from the statistics I see on Bones Highland, 357 00:27:57.359 --> 00:28:02.920 he's basically about the same stistically as Russell Wistburg. Obviously a different style of 358 00:28:02.920 --> 00:28:07.319 play, but he's no slouch, no, and he's actually a much better, 359 00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:11.720 much much much better three point shooter and a thread out there from distance. 360 00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:15.440 Teams aren't going to sag off of him and make the Clippers play four 361 00:28:15.480 --> 00:28:18.240 on five because they don't respect his three point shooting. He has a reputation, 362 00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:22.519 so I agree with you. I think you have to look for the 363 00:28:22.559 --> 00:28:26.319 bright side here and bones kind of blended in. He was on the court 364 00:28:26.319 --> 00:28:30.599 when they made that big run in the second quarter. In this game, 365 00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:34.480 I think he had at least one assist early to Norman Powell. He would 366 00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:40.519 finish playing fourteen minutes, had to assist. Was a plus eleven out there. 367 00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:42.759 The bench was great. Shout out a mere coffee. I know he 368 00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:47.079 had just one bucket. I think it was a midy, a little jumper 369 00:28:47.160 --> 00:28:49.960 in the lane, one of five. His defense was spectacular. On Anthony 370 00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:56.519 Edwards, he was a plus ten. It wasn't just Norman Pale. Guys 371 00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:59.920 were doing little things out there. They have no shot in this game with 372 00:29:00.000 --> 00:29:03.640 out of mere coffee either, but Norm got them pointed back in the right 373 00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:08.640 direction after being down by sixteen in the first quarter. Mark appreciates the phone 374 00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:11.720 call. We'll tatch to you likely tomorrow. Uh, Javier and the hobber 375 00:29:11.759 --> 00:29:15.200 heights here on Clipper stop with that a maslins have here? What's up? 376 00:29:17.480 --> 00:29:26.519 Hovier spiraling radio death as Petros Papadaekus would call it. Oh, I hung 377 00:29:26.640 --> 00:29:27.920 up on him. I thought I'd at least get the cool dials and get 378 00:29:27.960 --> 00:29:32.279 something out of that phone. Call Tage's and Walnut. I know he's not 379 00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:36.640 gonna leave me hanging Tag's what's up? Hey? What's up? At him? 380 00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:40.759 The Great victory is a kind of like a throwback eighties nineties games? 381 00:29:41.160 --> 00:29:45.400 What the all scoring? And it shows you how important defense is when your 382 00:29:45.400 --> 00:29:48.759 offense is struggling, but your defense can keep you in the whole games. 383 00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:55.160 A good lesson, I think, Yeah, Yeah, came up the King 384 00:29:55.240 --> 00:29:57.839 of that poor It was awesome. Scared me a little bit on the windmil 385 00:29:57.920 --> 00:30:02.440 donk out like it felt like he just got it above the rim. But 386 00:30:02.759 --> 00:30:06.920 him and also the King of the North both carried us, you know, 387 00:30:06.960 --> 00:30:11.200 offensively today. That was good. I'm gonna ask you a couple questions. 388 00:30:11.240 --> 00:30:18.160 One, do you think that Minnesota is a team where the mid range jumper 389 00:30:18.680 --> 00:30:22.799 is kind of something that we have to explore more because if we're not hitting 390 00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:26.279 the three in which I would have liked to see hardin MPG, Doe a 391 00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:29.839 little bit more of shoot the mid range because when they're not hitting that three 392 00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:33.039 and they're driving in, it's really tough to shoot over Gobert where that mid 393 00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:37.160 ranger shot might be, you know, more effective. And I think we 394 00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:41.200 saw Norm Powell do those runners, so he didn't. He kind of didn't 395 00:30:41.200 --> 00:30:45.160 want to try right into Gobert that five or eight footer. Yeah, I 396 00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:48.039 get it. It's been talked about. It's been talked about. Jesus, 397 00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:52.599 it has been talked about plenty that they gave up the mid range, so 398 00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:55.880 take the mid range. Obviously, that's good for Kawhi Leonard. Look, 399 00:30:56.000 --> 00:31:00.680 Paul George and James Harden probably combined to attempt five or six shots that were 400 00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:04.440 in the mid range. They just weren't hitting. Paul George had one, 401 00:31:04.519 --> 00:31:11.319 obviously, James Harden couldn't get anything to go. So it's not like they 402 00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:15.119 aren't aware of the scouting report on this Minnesota Timberwolves team, and somehow that's 403 00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:18.079 lost on the coaching staff. Tajus, do you got one more? Right? 404 00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:25.240 Do you? How effective do you think it's to pose Uppg and Kawhi 405 00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:29.240 against Minnesota? Do you think it's something that you should do more or the 406 00:31:29.240 --> 00:31:36.599 way didn't play was okay. I think they just have to hit their shots. 407 00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:40.000 Like when Paul George's outside shots from three and he's wide open, he's 408 00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:41.799 got to make those. My point would be, you have to make three 409 00:31:41.839 --> 00:31:47.200 is look, you win in this game because you hold them under forty percent. 410 00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:51.440 You play great defense like that. I don't know how repeatable this is, 411 00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:55.799 but the good news is I don't know how repeatable it is for the 412 00:31:55.799 --> 00:31:59.039 Clippers offense to be that cold. Yes, they came into it in the 413 00:31:59.039 --> 00:32:02.200 first two games against me Minnesota, shooting just forty two and in both those 414 00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:07.160 two games Paul George and James Harden struggled. I talked about it on Clipson 415 00:32:07.200 --> 00:32:09.440 Dip the other day. They need more from both of them. They really 416 00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:14.119 didn't get it for the most part, and they still found a way to 417 00:32:14.200 --> 00:32:20.440 win. Guys gotta be confident their shot. That's what Kawhi Leonard will always 418 00:32:20.599 --> 00:32:22.680 tell you. But the game slows down even more in the playoffs. This 419 00:32:22.839 --> 00:32:29.279 was a nice preview of that. And elbow PG. Thirteen is often where 420 00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:35.880 you want him to start. He makes quicker decisions there whoever has Mike Conley 421 00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:38.119 on them, And this was a little bit disappointing for me. They didn't 422 00:32:38.160 --> 00:32:43.599 exploit that matchup enough. It's not that he's a bad defender. They's just 423 00:32:43.720 --> 00:32:47.640 undersized and the lesser of five evils out there on the court. He's just 424 00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:53.039 he's a better option than going up against McDaniels. You can get Kat a 425 00:32:53.039 --> 00:32:58.440 little bit here and there, but for Kawhi and PG going up against McDaniels 426 00:32:58.480 --> 00:33:00.799 and Edwards, go at Mike Conny, go with Mike Conley Junior. Do 427 00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:05.200 what you can there. Jose and Downey, you're on clipper stoft without of 428 00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:08.920 Maslin. Jose, what's up? What about him? You know what a 429 00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:15.680 couple of callers ago saying about how Paul George had a terrible outing. He 430 00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:17.480 did have a bad outing offensive team, But I do agree with you. 431 00:33:17.559 --> 00:33:22.559 Defensively, he showed up. He was great on that end. Yeah. 432 00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:25.279 And then I want to say, in the last month and a half, 433 00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:30.400 when Tyler would play small ball, he had him playing a lot of center. 434 00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:32.680 I mean, when you're gonna play small ball and he has to guard 435 00:33:32.720 --> 00:33:37.559 the center and he's giving up about twenty thirty forty pounds, I mean, 436 00:33:37.680 --> 00:33:39.559 what do you expect him to do on offense? He's gonna be dead tired. 437 00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:43.960 Well, he's guarding my cat, his best friend. The majority of 438 00:33:44.000 --> 00:33:46.599 the time he was on Cat and Anthony Edwards. That will wear you out 439 00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:51.680 and take your legs out offensively, I agree with you. So that's why 440 00:33:51.720 --> 00:33:53.880 I'm saying I can live with these games, because he's putting all the effort 441 00:33:53.920 --> 00:33:57.960 on the defense, giving up bigger size on him. Most of the time, 442 00:33:58.319 --> 00:34:01.240 it's just the open shots. The open shots he has to make, 443 00:34:01.720 --> 00:34:06.000 and he had enough of those in this game where he was just off. 444 00:34:06.079 --> 00:34:08.360 I mean that three pointer I talked about where he fumbled the basketball and got 445 00:34:08.360 --> 00:34:13.159 it over the top of Carl Anthony Towns just threw it up there. He 446 00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:15.119 was in a shooting motion, but that was one of the tougher shots he 447 00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:20.400 had, and he made that one. It was crazy. Two of those 448 00:34:20.480 --> 00:34:23.639 fish three pointers. Man, they were so in and then just pop out 449 00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:25.920 and I'm just like, oh my god, what else does he have to 450 00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:29.719 do? Yeah, you know, I mean, it was It was a 451 00:34:29.760 --> 00:34:31.679 good scheme. They obviously wanted to be quicker, gave up the size. 452 00:34:31.679 --> 00:34:35.239 They wanted to be quicker, They wanted to shoot more. They wanted to 453 00:34:36.840 --> 00:34:39.000 open up that lane for them, but they didn't take as much advantage of 454 00:34:39.079 --> 00:34:42.679 that lane going to the mid range. But I'm not going to go into 455 00:34:42.719 --> 00:34:45.480 that because you already went into that. But it was a good win. 456 00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:47.199 I mean, there's no way around it. I mean, they played good 457 00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:55.599 defense because Minnesota out rebound out, assisted more blocks, and I think that 458 00:34:55.960 --> 00:35:00.519 we only had more steals, and we obviously capital they got up five more 459 00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:04.719 shots. I appreciate the phone call, Jose. They ended up getting up 460 00:35:04.760 --> 00:35:07.840 five more shots. Minnesota took one more free throw, but the Clippers hit 461 00:35:07.880 --> 00:35:12.079 one more three pointer. They were ten of thirty four, Minnesota nine of 462 00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:16.599 thirty three, but they capitalized in transition off those turnovers by the Timberwolves. 463 00:35:17.599 --> 00:35:21.679 We'll get back to your phone calls quick time. Out here. Clippers win 464 00:35:22.159 --> 00:35:25.679 eighty nine to eighty eight, a dog fight, a wolf fight, guess 465 00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:30.960 some Minnesota Timberwolves and win by one. You're listening to Clippers stock here on 466 00:35:30.960 --> 00:35:37.440 a five to seven LA Sports loading Clippers fully loaded with Clippers fans. This 467 00:35:37.519 --> 00:35:42.719 is LA Clippers basketball. You're listening to the LA Clippers on the LA Clippers 468 00:35:42.800 --> 00:35:51.039 Audio Network. Welcome back in. This is Clippers Talk. I met a 469 00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:55.599 moslind after they went eighty nine to eighty eight in Minnesota. This is not 470 00:35:57.880 --> 00:36:04.639 a Clippers rewind segment from nineteen ninety seven. Uh yeah, look at that 471 00:36:04.719 --> 00:36:07.800 score. It's it's amazing. The Clippers were their lowest scoring game of the 472 00:36:07.840 --> 00:36:14.000 season and it comes in a victory. Welcome back in if I three year 473 00:36:14.039 --> 00:36:15.440 on hold, stay on, hold, we will get back to you here 474 00:36:15.840 --> 00:36:20.679 eight six six ninety seven two five seventy eight six six ninety eight seven two 475 00:36:20.760 --> 00:36:22.719 five seventy For instance, I think I just threw Lenny on hold, Lenny, 476 00:36:22.719 --> 00:36:27.239 hold on, We'll get to you. But first, will Epdyke of 477 00:36:27.360 --> 00:36:32.639 clips and dip fame will Uh how much wind did this win put in your 478 00:36:32.719 --> 00:36:37.320 sales? With the Clippers finally beating the Minnesota Timberwolves. Oh man, it 479 00:36:37.400 --> 00:36:39.480 put a heck of a lot of win. But I gotta tell you, 480 00:36:39.480 --> 00:36:44.360 we're coming up against the pretty strong Waves just tomorrow and having to take on 481 00:36:44.440 --> 00:36:49.719 the It can't celebrate this one too hard, which is unfortunate because it's one 482 00:36:49.800 --> 00:36:52.679 of the best statement wins. Now. I know we didn't exactly dump it 483 00:36:52.760 --> 00:36:57.199 on them, but this is one of the best wins of the Clippers season. 484 00:36:58.119 --> 00:37:01.199 It is, without a doubt, especially because Minnesota was talking a lot 485 00:37:01.239 --> 00:37:07.960 of junk and now I'm posting Benjamin Button gifts on X talking about the Clippers 486 00:37:08.000 --> 00:37:13.119 actually looking younger in this game down the stretch. Anthony Edwards only had two 487 00:37:13.119 --> 00:37:16.599 points in the fourth quarter, and it was a defensive indifference type of play 488 00:37:16.679 --> 00:37:21.000 by the Clippers giving him that dunk, while Kawhi Leonard had eight points in 489 00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:24.000 the fourth including that and one out of the ATO. I think that's probably 490 00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:28.400 the biggest shot of the game, aside from those free throws late. But 491 00:37:28.960 --> 00:37:31.440 great to see the Claw and the Clippers once again step up in crunch time 492 00:37:31.480 --> 00:37:37.159 and clutch time. Oh absolutely. I mean I also talked Norm Powell's name 493 00:37:37.360 --> 00:37:39.679 min the bucket for clutch shots, the way he was ending quarters, not 494 00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:43.360 to mention the run that he went on there in the second. I mean, 495 00:37:43.400 --> 00:37:46.559 we just absolutely needed that spark. Obviously, no Russell Westbrook in this 496 00:37:46.679 --> 00:37:52.559 one, and Norm got us back into what seemed like a losing effort of 497 00:37:52.599 --> 00:37:59.199 a game, just pluggish, lethargic to start, really really tough one for 498 00:37:59.239 --> 00:38:00.679 this Clippers team. But thanks to Norm Powell, we were able to turn 499 00:38:00.719 --> 00:38:04.360 it around. You know, I talked a little bit on the podcast about 500 00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:07.119 what it could possibly mean for James Harden if he got a little bit of 501 00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:12.400 extended burn with the starting unit instead of you know that sort of six minute 502 00:38:12.440 --> 00:38:15.559 subout. My hypothesis thus far is not proved correct. He did not make 503 00:38:15.639 --> 00:38:20.239 a shot in this one, but the Clippers were still able to overcome. 504 00:38:20.440 --> 00:38:22.599 And I liked over all the way that we saw some more staggering of the 505 00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:25.840 stars. I thought that was effective in this one. Yeah, we saw 506 00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:30.360 Paul George and Kawhi Leonard being staggered a ton and PG. Thirteen. Look, 507 00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:37.079 he struggled, but during two of the most key runs by the Clippers, 508 00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:39.119 the sixteen oh run in that second quarter where I think he had two 509 00:38:39.159 --> 00:38:43.360 three pointers, and then the big three pointerer he hit in the fourth over 510 00:38:43.440 --> 00:38:46.840 Karl Anthony Towns. Some timely shots, you could say from him, along 511 00:38:46.960 --> 00:38:52.679 with just elite Paul George defensive player of the Year when he finished third back 512 00:38:52.679 --> 00:38:58.840 in twenty nineteen type of defense on that end. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, 513 00:38:58.920 --> 00:39:00.719 I mean that's the like, Look, I some of this was cold 514 00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:04.760 shooting. You know, you have both teams under forty percent from the floor, 515 00:39:04.800 --> 00:39:08.280 both teams under thirty percent from three, so it's a mix of both. 516 00:39:08.320 --> 00:39:12.400 But I think defensively, there was a lot to like from this Clippers 517 00:39:12.400 --> 00:39:15.719 team in you know, a defensive performance that we haven't been seen as of 518 00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:21.000 late, and you know, with sort of lower minutes from a Vita Zubat 519 00:39:21.280 --> 00:39:24.840 and down Russ, who is you know, a pretty key player when we 520 00:39:24.880 --> 00:39:29.960 switched to those smaller lineups. I liked. You know, there's there's nothing 521 00:39:30.000 --> 00:39:32.000 to not like about that defensive performance from the Clippers. Sure, there were 522 00:39:32.039 --> 00:39:36.400 some lasses here and there, there were some easy buckets given up, but 523 00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:38.960 overall, it's just a really really strong effort on that end of the floor. 524 00:39:39.000 --> 00:39:42.559 And while the store, well, while the scoring took a bit of 525 00:39:42.599 --> 00:39:44.880 a backseat, I mean, if you're coming out with the win, you'll 526 00:39:44.920 --> 00:39:47.320 take it, no doubt. I thought, you know, a Viza Zubas 527 00:39:47.360 --> 00:39:52.360 obviously wasn't his game out there. You had a floater I think it was 528 00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:54.559 in the third quarter, but they weren't even looking for him at times, 529 00:39:54.559 --> 00:39:59.239 and I was kind of hoping they would because it would get him even more 530 00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:02.199 engaged offensively, just getting into the ball game a little bit, and it 531 00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:06.760 might have helped out, you know, James Harden getting easier one if they're 532 00:40:06.800 --> 00:40:08.679 running the pick and roll more effectively. But you've got to give it up 533 00:40:08.679 --> 00:40:13.599 to Daniel Tice and coach lou for sticking with him down the stretch and at 534 00:40:13.679 --> 00:40:16.760 least having the illusion of spreading the floor because he's a forty three point shooter 535 00:40:16.880 --> 00:40:20.320 so far this season. He went oh a four in this game, but 536 00:40:20.880 --> 00:40:24.360 they had to honor his shot from the outside, and it worked just well 537 00:40:24.480 --> 00:40:29.239 enough, I guess offensively. Yeah, look, I mean, oh, 538 00:40:29.320 --> 00:40:32.719 I mean, it just shows you the tactician that Tylu is because it kind 539 00:40:32.719 --> 00:40:37.199 of defies reason. To me, especially when Rudy Gobert is not on the 540 00:40:37.199 --> 00:40:38.800 floor, you think you'd like to have bit your body out there. Someone 541 00:40:38.840 --> 00:40:43.239 like dude can very reliably finish. You could kind of lean on him in 542 00:40:43.239 --> 00:40:46.239 some of those stretches, especially because shots weren't following down. He talks about 543 00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:51.079 Paul George at Harden and their rough sort of offensive outing, but hey, 544 00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:54.079 he seems very committed to his vision of what he wanted to do. We 545 00:40:54.079 --> 00:40:58.360 didn't see minutes from Mason Plumbley, like we said, very limited zoom in 546 00:40:58.400 --> 00:41:00.960 it, but it worked. I think, you know, having one extra 547 00:41:00.960 --> 00:41:04.719 shooter out there on the floor. And this is not this is not a 548 00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:08.719 disc on roster or anything, but having one extra shooter in those lineups does 549 00:41:08.760 --> 00:41:13.599 make things a little bit easier from a spacing perspective. Although again we didn't 550 00:41:13.639 --> 00:41:16.719 exactly light it up offensively. They didn't. They did get so many open 551 00:41:16.719 --> 00:41:21.360 shots, though, I'm interested to see on NBA dot Com Leader how many 552 00:41:21.400 --> 00:41:27.079 open threes they missed, because I felt like Paul George and James Harden must 553 00:41:27.159 --> 00:41:30.960 have gone like zero five on open threes, and some of that was created 554 00:41:31.000 --> 00:41:35.960 through that spacing. They just weren't able to capitalize on it. But I 555 00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:39.079 thought a mere coffee was also fabulous. Defensively, I thought Bones blended in 556 00:41:39.280 --> 00:41:43.960 very nicely during that run to start the second quarter. He didn't get in 557 00:41:43.960 --> 00:41:45.840 the way. He took three shots. He took one on Rudy Gobert where 558 00:41:45.840 --> 00:41:49.280 he had a nice move on him. He couldn't get to go either, 559 00:41:49.320 --> 00:41:52.800 But you can see the confidence there from young Bones Highland. But Terrence Man 560 00:41:52.840 --> 00:41:58.400 good defense with the starters two of three with six points. I just got 561 00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:01.079 to think that this Clippers team has to gain a lot of confidence coming out 562 00:42:01.119 --> 00:42:06.280 of a victory against a team that really I'm sure, the Minnesota Timberwols are 563 00:42:06.280 --> 00:42:08.960 gonna say they had no business losing that game. But the Clippers defense, 564 00:42:09.079 --> 00:42:13.719 it just shows what they're capable of on that end when they lock in, 565 00:42:15.119 --> 00:42:17.840 oh yeah, one hundred percent. And you know, speaking of man and 566 00:42:17.960 --> 00:42:22.320 coffee, like their defense is gonna come in very clutch again. They're gonna 567 00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:24.559 be leaned on heavily second night of a back to back. You know, 568 00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:29.000 they're the youngest, some of the youngest guys on the team, so they're 569 00:42:29.000 --> 00:42:30.960 gonna be expected to carry a heavy load again on Bone. Look, I 570 00:42:31.000 --> 00:42:34.400 know, if you're looking at the box score, it didn't really jump. 571 00:42:34.679 --> 00:42:37.400 It's not gonna burn your eyes out or anything. But like, really, 572 00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:39.719 all Bones have to do is be able to help that team tread water, 573 00:42:40.000 --> 00:42:44.199 get the ball to the hot hand, and keep things moving. Uh And 574 00:42:44.239 --> 00:42:47.440 I you know, he had to assists. Like it wasn't great, but 575 00:42:47.480 --> 00:42:51.159 he was you know, like he wasn't making mistakes. He was able to 576 00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:53.280 get the ball to norm a couple of times. Who was the best horror 577 00:42:53.320 --> 00:42:58.599 on the floor during those stretches. So overall, I mean that's that's still 578 00:42:58.599 --> 00:43:01.480 a pretty solid performance. Like we don't need Bones to I mean of course 579 00:43:01.480 --> 00:43:05.719 there's a time and place, but I would say in a general scenario, 580 00:43:05.840 --> 00:43:10.159 we don't need Bones to bear a lot of the offensive burden from a scoring 581 00:43:10.159 --> 00:43:13.960 perspective. Really, he just got to go in there, take care of 582 00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:16.239 the ball, not make mistakes, and like I said, just keep things 583 00:43:16.280 --> 00:43:20.599 moving for this Clippers offense. Yeah, that's well said. And he did 584 00:43:20.639 --> 00:43:24.280 have the first to assists to three point shots made in that second quarter to 585 00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:28.760 get the run started started, and assist to Norman Powell coming off of what 586 00:43:28.800 --> 00:43:30.320 he did in the first quarter, and assist to Paul George. It was 587 00:43:30.360 --> 00:43:36.280 his first make that assist by Bones Highland. So to your point, was 588 00:43:36.320 --> 00:43:39.639 getting guys good looks out there, and I think the offense, you know 589 00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:43.920 it's going to come for him. It will. He's too good on that 590 00:43:44.079 --> 00:43:47.199 end. I'm just waiting for that Bones Highland explosion game with him back into 591 00:43:47.239 --> 00:43:51.760 the lineup. Now. Of course, Will Updyke only comes on during victories 592 00:43:51.800 --> 00:43:54.280 and the Clippers would win by one eighty nine to eighty eight. Your final 593 00:43:54.400 --> 00:43:59.559 in Minnesota, Yeah, it's not time travel. They really want a game 594 00:43:59.599 --> 00:44:04.519 scoring eighty nine points in the year twenty twenty four, Will, we'll talk 595 00:44:04.559 --> 00:44:06.960 to you soon. I know, we got a YouTube I think coming up 596 00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:08.679 on Tuesday, my friend, thanks for doing this here a little clips and 597 00:44:08.719 --> 00:44:13.639 double dip here on clipper Stock. Absolutely thanks for having me. Let's go 598 00:44:13.719 --> 00:44:16.920 quick. We'll take a few calls before we get out of here. Clippers 599 00:44:16.960 --> 00:44:22.960 again win by one in Minnesota, Lenny and Inglewood. You're on clipper Stock 600 00:44:22.960 --> 00:44:25.400 without of mousle and quickly, Lenny, Hey, what's so bad? It's 601 00:44:25.440 --> 00:44:31.360 a good game, man, good win. I just hope that Paul. 602 00:44:32.199 --> 00:44:39.480 I just hope that Bamber extends once again Norman Pile, because Paul George's an 603 00:44:39.519 --> 00:44:44.239 All Star, but he's not capable of playing at the level the money he's 604 00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:46.239 asking for right now. And I mean we're going on ten games. I 605 00:44:46.280 --> 00:44:49.280 think, no, no, no, no, no, he's capable. 606 00:44:49.559 --> 00:44:52.920 He just isn't playing like it right now. Well, let's hope so, 607 00:44:53.079 --> 00:44:57.159 man, because if we're going to the playoffs with him, but kayleally getting 608 00:44:57.159 --> 00:45:00.760 twenty five, it's not gonna happen. He's got to come in after twenty 609 00:45:00.760 --> 00:45:06.239 five. Hawile needs he needs a one a his to his one to his 610 00:45:06.320 --> 00:45:09.639 one star. Yeah, and if he ain't gonna do it, I can't 611 00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:13.599 see it. Happens. The West is too tough. Man, it's too 612 00:45:13.639 --> 00:45:15.800 tough. I agree. I mean, I think it's obvious Paul George has 613 00:45:15.840 --> 00:45:19.599 to shoot the ball better. He's been bad the last month. He's also 614 00:45:19.639 --> 00:45:22.400 been injured. I think those two things seem to coincide. I mean, 615 00:45:22.400 --> 00:45:29.239 the guy was having arguably his most efficient season until the last month. So 616 00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:32.119 does not act like it's been happening all season long, or reprisoners of the 617 00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:37.480 moment and not give him the respect he deserves for being an All Star he 618 00:45:37.719 --> 00:45:42.000 was not just because of his name, because he was playing that well before 619 00:45:42.000 --> 00:45:44.719 he got bang Duff, Ryan and Burbank, what's up? You're on Clippers 620 00:45:44.719 --> 00:45:49.679 stock without of Mansleen quickly, Adam, this is a great win. And 621 00:45:49.719 --> 00:45:52.519 here's the thing that most striped out to me for this win. The Clippers 622 00:45:52.519 --> 00:45:57.079 defense was phenomenal. But Adam, let's just play. Let's just play what 623 00:45:57.159 --> 00:46:01.440 if for a second. If James harden It hits two to three shots and 624 00:46:01.519 --> 00:46:06.679 Paul George hits one more, you know more more towards their averages, this 625 00:46:06.800 --> 00:46:09.320 is a blowout. Here. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. The 626 00:46:09.360 --> 00:46:15.599 Timberwolves can make the exact same argument. Ryan I talk and I that they 627 00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:20.559 can ad them. But I would argue though that the Clippers, the Clippers 628 00:46:20.559 --> 00:46:23.760 shooting is far better than that the Wolves shooting will ever be. And if 629 00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:28.559 the Clippers just play this level of defense they're they're to me, they're still 630 00:46:28.760 --> 00:46:30.079 gonna be there at the end for the Western Conference like this is, this 631 00:46:30.119 --> 00:46:34.840 is. I agree with that overall, they have more weapons, they have 632 00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:38.400 more offense. Minnesota is just seventeenth offensively, so that's fair. Ryan. 633 00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:42.519 I appreciate the phone call Morris in Long Beach. Morris, you on Clipper 634 00:46:42.519 --> 00:46:45.360 stoping that I'm awesome. Hey, gives some clidit to in Minnesota. But 635 00:46:45.599 --> 00:46:49.880 the Clippers they've arrived. The Clippers they this. There was five mile stars 636 00:46:49.920 --> 00:46:52.360 on the po Tonite. There was five mile stars on them and the winner 637 00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:57.000 didn' score ninety points. Listen, the Clippers are ready after that twenty one 638 00:46:57.039 --> 00:46:59.880 point loss to the Lakers, turning round, they got a bad tation themo 639 00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:01.519 I don't think they're gonna lose anybody else. I don't think they're gonna lose 640 00:47:01.519 --> 00:47:05.599 any battle. Harden didn't score a big deal. He had ten assists. 641 00:47:05.599 --> 00:47:07.280 That's twenty points in a low scoring game. Like this. Paul George, 642 00:47:07.320 --> 00:47:09.599 y, he ain't himself. I'm gonna tell you something. Anthony Towns winding 643 00:47:09.639 --> 00:47:13.920 hiself heat to the light after dealing with Paul George. So they've arrived, 644 00:47:14.039 --> 00:47:16.920 they're ready to go. They figured out you got to play defense if you 645 00:47:16.960 --> 00:47:22.079 want to win, if you want entertained called fifty points, if you want 646 00:47:22.079 --> 00:47:24.840 to win, it's gonna be ugly. And everybody got to buy into playing 647 00:47:24.840 --> 00:47:28.599 defense. You mean, if they were selling baskets good nobody for it now 648 00:47:28.639 --> 00:47:32.000 except for Kauietbau. That's because everybody brought into the defensive, defensive scheme and 649 00:47:32.039 --> 00:47:37.159 you could see it at them. We're ready you behavee yourself. You too, 650 00:47:37.199 --> 00:47:40.079 Morris, Thank you. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Jose and Southgate 651 00:47:40.119 --> 00:47:43.400 to close things out. Jose, what's up here on Clipper stop with that? 652 00:47:43.440 --> 00:47:46.920 I'm aussel. What's up about one point win over the number one team 653 00:47:46.960 --> 00:47:52.400 in the West on kt L A five. I love it, baby sports? 654 00:47:52.440 --> 00:47:55.360 Oh yeah, no, oh, yes, we were in the traffic 655 00:47:55.440 --> 00:47:58.920 jam. We were in the traffic jam. When we were at traffic jams 656 00:47:58.920 --> 00:48:01.519 and slow funk. Hey, Minnesota was in a traffic jam against that Clippers 657 00:48:01.519 --> 00:48:05.800 defense. You know what I'm saying. Hey, no, I feel you. 658 00:48:05.840 --> 00:48:07.039 I feel you. But we are in the front of a back to 659 00:48:07.079 --> 00:48:10.360 back, so I'll keep it short.
