00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:12,199
What is going on? Clippers fans? Welcome to episode one thirty seven of

2
00:00:12,359 --> 00:00:15,599
Clips and part of the two and
three Step Higher. If you're a fan

3
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,879
of Spectrum News one, perhaps you
saw we're on it earlier in this morning.

4
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,440
That was a good time. But
today we have myself Adam Oz of

5
00:00:22,519 --> 00:00:27,440
Animal Updike, as well as Graham, Crew's own friend of the show before

6
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,519
the Fame, some of the fame, Carl Tart. We're here to talk

7
00:00:30,559 --> 00:00:33,039
how we felt after game one,
Howard Fielding headed into the game two.

8
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,280
Carl, you're our guest. How
are you feeling today as the Clippers are

9
00:00:36,399 --> 00:00:39,280
up one? Nothing on the Phoenix
sauce. Well, as you know,

10
00:00:39,799 --> 00:00:44,640
thanks for having me. First of
all, as you know, anytime a

11
00:00:44,719 --> 00:00:50,520
Clipper fan is feeling comfortable, that's
the wrong place to be in. That's

12
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:57,079
very fair. Definitely not feeling comfortable
definitely added that much more pressure because because

13
00:00:57,119 --> 00:01:02,880
we won a game, this is
dread, This is like it is I'm

14
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:04,120
not I'm not not feeling good.
Of course I'm feeling good. I was

15
00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:07,840
happy. I had a real big
meltdown. I was at brunch yesterday watching

16
00:01:07,879 --> 00:01:12,719
the Laker game U the Laker Memphis
game, I was, and I was,

17
00:01:12,879 --> 00:01:15,599
and I was with a bunch of
Laker fans, of course, and

18
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:21,040
I was donned in my uh my
standard edition Clipper card again sure, and

19
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,840
I was getting a lot of that. Yeah, and I was getting a

20
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,920
lot of hate and uh because I
was wearing that. And because they they

21
00:01:30,439 --> 00:01:34,159
you know, did what they do, get a lot of calls, not

22
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,200
a lot of calls to the other
team. The other team kind of you

23
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,359
know, didn't play as good.
Jo I got hurt. So I was

24
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,000
really upset by that. Laker fans
were happy about that, of course.

25
00:01:42,359 --> 00:01:45,680
Uh. And I was like,
we gotta win a night like this is

26
00:01:45,719 --> 00:01:47,480
a I had a bit of a
meldown. I ain't gonna lie. I

27
00:01:47,519 --> 00:01:51,760
was up in there like screaming.
I was. I was in brunch like

28
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,480
I maybe had a couple too many
mimosas, but I was in there like

29
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,799
this always happens. This is this
always happens. This team is garbage like

30
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,159
this like as like soul frustrating because
this was in Inglewoods, so you know,

31
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,400
all the all the older gentlemen in
their hats a Michael Cooper Jersey's on

32
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,759
the win of course. Yeah,
but no, man, I feel good

33
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,879
that we I feel good that we
got the game. Of course, I

34
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:17,479
feel great about that. Uh,
And but I've been holding onto this like

35
00:02:19,719 --> 00:02:23,039
this dread that our defense wasn't great
and they just missed a lot of shots

36
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:29,120
on that side. And uh,
that's that's that's kind of weighing me down.

37
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,599
And I'm like, we you guys
talked about Russ a lot on last

38
00:02:32,599 --> 00:02:36,479
episode. I was just listening to
it, and uh, I don't so

39
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,960
I don't want to harp on Russ, but go for it, harp away.

40
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,439
But nineteen shots, my man,
Oh, we're gonna talk about the

41
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,960
nineteen We're gonna wall or something.
Yeah, you think, my man,

42
00:02:47,039 --> 00:02:51,000
John Wall, I'm gonna get my
John Wall jersey. Yeah. Yeah,

43
00:02:51,039 --> 00:02:53,840
you gotta turn that one into a
zero. Um. Yeah, We're gonna

44
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:58,000
definitely talk what needs to happen for
the Clips to win Game two and all

45
00:02:58,039 --> 00:03:00,000
that good stuff. Adam will Now
that we've had I had a day to

46
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,759
decompress. How are y'all feeling,
Adam, I'll go to you as the

47
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:09,599
Clippers sit idly by at one Nothing
well from the high last night? Or

48
00:03:09,599 --> 00:03:13,479
are you still pretty hopped up?
No? I didn't sleep that much.

49
00:03:13,599 --> 00:03:17,360
I was feeling too good after last
night. I did have some similar thoughts

50
00:03:17,599 --> 00:03:22,840
after the Lakers went over the Memphis
Grizzlies, like they're getting lucky again.

51
00:03:23,319 --> 00:03:27,039
The Clippers are in a dog fight
against the Phoenix Suns, and Memphis is

52
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,039
about to lay down for the Lakers, even though they got the seventh spot

53
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,919
and had to go through the play
in. So I was feeling a little

54
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:36,240
bit of that impending doom, like
everything's working out for the Lakers, and

55
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,719
it put more pressure on the Clippers
in that game last night, But obviously

56
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:44,240
they didn't feel it, or they
did and they played through it and responded

57
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,800
very well. They were down by
nine in that third quarter and they came

58
00:03:46,919 --> 00:03:51,719
up with a huge victory. And
even though Russ did take nineteen shots and

59
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,199
only make three of them, I
take that as an encouraging Sun that they

60
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,960
were able to win. Anyways,
that almost says the margin for air maybe

61
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,639
a little bit wider than we thought
it was in this series, or not

62
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:06,719
quite as slim. It's still slim, but it's not quite as difficult maybe,

63
00:04:06,919 --> 00:04:11,280
And I'm assuming the Phoenix Suns are
gonna play better, but they still

64
00:04:11,319 --> 00:04:15,159
shot forty eight percent last night.
They just didn't take that many threes.

65
00:04:15,479 --> 00:04:18,040
And if Tory Craig is gonna go
nine for twelve and out twenty two points

66
00:04:18,079 --> 00:04:21,680
and you still win that ball game, you survive that. Because we talked

67
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:26,000
about role players and how they could
step up and be killers and decide or

68
00:04:26,079 --> 00:04:29,399
swing a game in this series,
that's a good thing that the Clippers were

69
00:04:29,439 --> 00:04:32,680
able to win. They certainly didn't
empty the clip. They still got a

70
00:04:32,759 --> 00:04:35,199
lot of tricks up their sleeve,
I feel like, and a lot of

71
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:40,120
performances that are still coming from guys
who weren't great for them last night.

72
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,160
Will where are you at? I'm
feeling great, man, I like I

73
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,399
for the first time, and like
can we really do this? And like

74
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,399
do it kind of in quick fashion, which I do still think is the

75
00:04:50,399 --> 00:04:54,160
Clippers. Probably the best way if
they are gonna get it done, is

76
00:04:54,199 --> 00:04:58,000
like not having this thing stretch out
beyond say five games, Like I think

77
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,720
if you get into that six seven
territory, it's like maybe enough. You

78
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,360
know, that's almost doubling the amount
of experience KD has with this team.

79
00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:09,079
He was already really really good.
I guess, just like looking at it

80
00:05:09,519 --> 00:05:12,560
at the math problem with the whole
thing, like, can you continue to

81
00:05:12,639 --> 00:05:15,639
keep Phoenix sub like sub twenty three
point attempts? I don't know about that.

82
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,279
Can you keep him sub twenty five? Maybe? Uh? And and

83
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:24,040
and then just like looking forward,
I mean like Durant had a great game.

84
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,000
I don't think it was his best
punch, but I think looking with

85
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,480
how little time this team has had
together in Phoenix, like, can you

86
00:05:31,639 --> 00:05:35,399
reasonably expect if the sample size is
only four or five games, that you'll

87
00:05:35,439 --> 00:05:40,360
have to endure a game where you
get the best games out of both Durant

88
00:05:40,399 --> 00:05:43,360
and Booker. Because the way I'm
the way I'm feeling right now, the

89
00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:46,160
way I'm looking at it right now, is no. And I think if

90
00:05:46,199 --> 00:05:48,720
you don't get the best games out
of two of those guys and our role

91
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,040
guys continue to step up the way
that we have, I don't know,

92
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,680
Man, the Suns are gonna struggle
in those in those minutes, uh,

93
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,759
you know, when one of when
one of their big two is is not

94
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,839
on the floor. And I do
think like when Campaign comes back then that

95
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,199
that might be able to change things
a little bit. They might be able

96
00:06:06,199 --> 00:06:10,360
to punish the Clippers a little bit
more in those minutes. But you know,

97
00:06:10,639 --> 00:06:14,439
basically, if the Clippers are assured, you know, that big of

98
00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:18,160
a cushion anytime a star is off
the floor. I'm liking the odds.

99
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:23,000
I don't know, I'm feeling I'm
feeling really really good about this series right

100
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,319
now. And there was a debate
on Twitter, and Carl, I kind

101
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:30,199
of want to talk to you about
this. Did the Clippers steal Game one?

102
00:06:30,319 --> 00:06:33,839
Because that's the narrative that's kind of
being pushed at least on some social

103
00:06:33,879 --> 00:06:39,120
media. And I don't know if
you can say the Clippers stole game one?

104
00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:42,279
Like sure, Kaui had thirty eight
points played over forty minutes. The

105
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:45,639
forty minutes is going to happen every
single game in these playoffs. But like

106
00:06:46,199 --> 00:06:48,600
we didn't have anyone completely lose their
mind from the field, you know,

107
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:54,800
Like we didn't have a bones Highland
twenty five point game. Like do you

108
00:06:54,879 --> 00:06:57,560
see it as the Clippers just they
just straight up beat him in that game.

109
00:06:57,879 --> 00:07:00,240
Yeah, we straight up beat him. We outplayed them. They they

110
00:07:00,319 --> 00:07:03,199
came back on us. We went
we went down. Uh. I was

111
00:07:03,519 --> 00:07:08,560
you know, my stomach was in
knots, so you know, I was

112
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:21,439
making a bowl of tomus and milk
and uh, tumos post brand tumos and

113
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,959
uh. But like we we went
down and we battled back, and I

114
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,120
think we continued to battle. They
didn't take enough shots. They didn't their

115
00:07:29,199 --> 00:07:31,720
bench didn't have the firepower that even
and you all were talking about the bench

116
00:07:31,759 --> 00:07:35,439
a lot in the last episode.
Their bench has shown that they can play

117
00:07:35,519 --> 00:07:39,839
well. Over the past few games
since All Star Break, their bench had

118
00:07:39,839 --> 00:07:44,079
stepped up quite a bit, didn't
They didn't they take one from Denver with

119
00:07:44,839 --> 00:07:53,399
with a good performance by the bench. No, I know that we didn't

120
00:07:53,399 --> 00:07:57,720
be there. Well, that's what's
crazy, is like their bench, like

121
00:07:57,879 --> 00:08:03,240
they have some pieces, but it
looked like Monty Williams didn't really know how

122
00:08:03,319 --> 00:08:05,720
any of them were gonna play together
with some of the other guys in the

123
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,360
starting lineup, right, Like you
look at the minutes distribution on the bench,

124
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,839
Shammon played twenty three minutes. No
one else for the Sun's bench played

125
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:18,560
more than seven and a half.
Yeah, they're gonna make adjustments on that.

126
00:08:18,959 --> 00:08:20,920
I think I don't. I don't
think you can say. I think

127
00:08:20,959 --> 00:08:24,079
it's disrepeabed to say we stole one. I think it's the same thing that

128
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,879
you know when we beat the Lakers
in that last game and they were at

129
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:33,000
full health, and you know,
we were down PG and they and my

130
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,360
the people I went to high school
with in the in the g chat,

131
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,120
we're all like, man, y'all
had to play Kauwhai forty minutes to beat

132
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,720
us, Like, okay, so
he his job. Yeah, what are

133
00:08:43,759 --> 00:08:46,759
you supposed to do? What?
We like, what are we talking about?

134
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,799
Like you got Lebron James and Anthony
Davis, you got the goat and

135
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,240
a when healthy, a top five
player in the league. So yeah,

136
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,240
we had our we had our other, our top five player in the league

137
00:09:00,039 --> 00:09:01,879
out there doing his job, and
we were down the player. We were

138
00:09:01,919 --> 00:09:07,559
down a top fifteen player, Like
what are you talking about? Like it's

139
00:09:07,639 --> 00:09:09,600
so I think that's the same thing. We're never gonna get our credit a

140
00:09:11,039 --> 00:09:13,240
very good point, and they're gonna
say, well, they stole that they

141
00:09:13,519 --> 00:09:18,000
shouldn't have won that they Phoenix is
gonna do And of course that stuff is

142
00:09:18,039 --> 00:09:22,559
gonna get in our heads and and
and also we're for smart people here,

143
00:09:22,639 --> 00:09:26,320
so we know that Monty Williams is
a smart coach and he is going to

144
00:09:26,519 --> 00:09:31,039
make changes in in his hes,
gonna adjust and he's a good coach with

145
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,720
adjustments and things like that. So
we gotta be aware. But I don't

146
00:09:33,919 --> 00:09:37,519
say we stole it. I think
I think we earned that. If we

147
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,840
had at we had to stole it, they wouldn't have scored more than a

148
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:45,960
hundred points. That's it steal.
It's like we get we we we win

149
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,720
one hundred and twenty seven to ninety
two, and and norm Power got thirty

150
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,360
and Norm Power's got thirty and and
Bones Highlands got twenty five, and Eric

151
00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:01,799
Gordon's got twenty eight and rowco comes
in and as six threes like that,

152
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,440
that's a that's a stealing of game. We just we just outplayed them and

153
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,000
they got out playing out coach.
That'll be game four to to end the

154
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,759
series, will be the game.
That's when we get there. They're gonna

155
00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:15,679
put the Kevin Durant sitting down in
the end of the third quarter. Adam,

156
00:10:15,879 --> 00:10:18,000
where are you at on this?
I know you had some big thoughts

157
00:10:18,039 --> 00:10:22,320
about this. Uh this, Adam
is stolen. This stolen game. Even

158
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,159
getting into it on Twitter. For
those of you who are new to the

159
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:31,559
pod, Adam is the uh,
I would say, kind of surprisingly Twitter

160
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,279
warrior of this podcast. You get
into it with more people on Twitter.

161
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,720
You've been blocked during an episode before. I'm the Twitter watchdog. Yeah,

162
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:45,000
anybs out there, I'm barking at
it. And it came from Shane Young.

163
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:50,320
A lot of people would say as
a Phoenix Suns apologist or a Phoenix

164
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,720
Suns fans loved Chris Paul, who
was worse than Russ despite Russ going three

165
00:10:54,759 --> 00:10:56,759
for nineteen, which is insane.
But he was not a fan of them

166
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,519
bringing in Russell Westbrook. A lot
of people weren't and that he has been

167
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,200
one of the guys saying they don't
necessarily need a point guard. And I

168
00:11:03,279 --> 00:11:07,360
don't necessarily disagree with him, and
he does fine work. But I responded

169
00:11:07,399 --> 00:11:13,519
to him saying, Clipper Steel game
on the road, he does, he

170
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:20,799
does a great job. I appreciate
his analysis. He does quality work.

171
00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:28,919
Clipper Steel game one on the road, taking home court advantage in this series.

172
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:33,639
So I responded with Steele question mark. He said, a road team

173
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:37,960
winning Game one is underdogs, is
definitely a Steel I said, not if

174
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,480
you outplay the opposition most of the
game and have Kawhi Leonard, he said,

175
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,440
still considered a steal. That's why
it's in multiple headlines today, I

176
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,600
say, ah, yes, headlines. Lol. Uh, they weren't down

177
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,320
ten for most of the ball game
and then stole it at the end.

178
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,639
But okay, that's what I would
consider a steel. If you were being

179
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,799
dominated the majority of the ball game, then all of a sud a couple

180
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,559
of turnovers by the opposition, they
let you back in and you win the

181
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:09,679
game. That's not what happened.
An upset is different than a steel,

182
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,240
and upset it's absolutely different than a
steel. Yeah. Yeah, the steel

183
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,360
is disrespectful. It's a little bit
dismissive. Now, if you're saying they

184
00:12:16,519 --> 00:12:22,399
stole back or took back home court
advantage, I can accept that. That

185
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,600
makes a little bit more sense to
me. But describing the game as stealing

186
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,679
it just because they won and were
the underdogs, I don't think is,

187
00:12:33,519 --> 00:12:37,240
you know, a very good way
to wrap up how Game one was laid

188
00:12:37,279 --> 00:12:41,720
out, Because the Clippers just outplayed
them for the most part. I'll played

189
00:12:41,759 --> 00:12:45,879
them the whole time, like,
and they weren't out there like bumbling idiot,

190
00:12:45,919 --> 00:12:50,960
They weren't out there being a bulk
and skull from power Rangers like they

191
00:12:52,039 --> 00:12:54,559
weren't like they weren't doing that like, it wasn't they were playing good basket

192
00:12:54,639 --> 00:12:58,919
when they got Kevin Durant didn't have
a triple devil. It was close.

193
00:12:58,159 --> 00:13:01,679
He was one rebo on the way. Yeah, yeah, man, Like,

194
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,679
come on, like, I don't
it wasn't steal it was it was

195
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:09,120
you all counted us out. Everybody
counted us out. We even counted us

196
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,600
out. Like and Clippers fans,
we are ingrained after what we've watched to

197
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:18,200
say we probably aren't gonna win Game
one. I've been, yeah, I've

198
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,879
been. I've personally been saying I'm
tired of that. I've I've dealt with

199
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,279
so much Laker delusion over the past
a few weeks, with them being like

200
00:13:26,759 --> 00:13:30,039
they're going to the finals and the
Vegas odds going on the way they were,

201
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,919
and then I'm so, I'm I'm
done. I'm being delusion. We're

202
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,919
winning this series and I don't even
believe that's delusion anymore. I'm beating my

203
00:13:37,039 --> 00:13:39,600
chest. Oh, I'd agree,
it's not delusional. We're up one out,

204
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,960
up one, We're winning this series. We're gonna win it. They

205
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,000
like and and and you know,
we'll see what happens from there on out.

206
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,360
But it's it's ridiculous that we always
have to, you know, be

207
00:13:50,639 --> 00:13:56,480
some of the people who uh perpetuate
the beat down that we take because like

208
00:13:56,639 --> 00:14:00,679
if the headlines say steal, that's
because the headlines ain't never are respected of

209
00:14:01,399 --> 00:14:05,120
y. Yeah, on the headlines
are trying to be over the top and

210
00:14:05,279 --> 00:14:11,600
headlines aren't context. Headlines, screaming
headlines are to get people to read it.

211
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:16,320
That means nothing. It's technically a
steal because headlines say that who cares

212
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:22,440
what a damn headline says? It's
three quarters of this game, Like right,

213
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:26,480
there was like a small there was
a small chance where it seemed like

214
00:14:26,519 --> 00:14:30,240
they might be out of it,
and that was really it, man Like.

215
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,320
Other than that, it was it
was a pretty complete victory. Yeah,

216
00:14:33,399 --> 00:14:37,320
what's crazy. I gave one quarter. Yeah, and that's what we've

217
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,679
done all year. We give one
quarter, we try and take the other

218
00:14:39,799 --> 00:14:43,519
three. What's so great about winning
game one two is now we talked about

219
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:46,919
the pressure how the Clippers you know, they don't have you know, four

220
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,919
games in seven days really hurts Paul
George's timeline to come back kind of hurts

221
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,600
the whole like gel factor with the
team, All that pressure is on the

222
00:14:54,639 --> 00:14:58,480
Suns now because now there's this team
where everyone's saying talking about headlines like what

223
00:14:58,639 --> 00:15:01,840
is this going to do? Does
this bench even really know how to play

224
00:15:01,919 --> 00:15:05,639
with KD and things like that in
these highlyver situations. Now they're on that

225
00:15:05,679 --> 00:15:11,279
flip side of the less time while
trying to figure out more than like Mntie

226
00:15:11,279 --> 00:15:13,840
Williams has more to figure out than
Tylou has a figure out. I think

227
00:15:13,559 --> 00:15:18,039
I think that pressure is especially difficult
on a team of this style of play

228
00:15:18,159 --> 00:15:24,240
that's a jump shooting team, because
those are very fine, precision type of

229
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,679
shots. It's not a team that
gets to the basket and destroys you in

230
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:31,720
the post or just dumps it off
to DeAndre Aiden. Even he attempts to

231
00:15:31,759 --> 00:15:33,360
jump shots and he hit a couple
I think on a beats the Zoo Boss

232
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,200
yesterday, but Big Zoo outplayed him
overall. But for a team that has

233
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,919
some mental scars over the past couple
of years, have had some really down

234
00:15:41,039 --> 00:15:46,120
moments in the Phoenix Suns. For
them to already be feeling the fire after

235
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,519
game one in the first round like
this and to have that much pressure heaped

236
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,799
upon their shoulders, that's not going
to be easy because, like I said,

237
00:15:52,799 --> 00:15:56,360
the Clippers, they didn't empty the
clip. Will you said it last

238
00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:00,159
night? I thought you put it
best. There was no outliers from this

239
00:16:00,279 --> 00:16:03,879
Clippers team that got them the victory. A lot of what they did is

240
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,399
repeatable. In fact, some of
the outliers stuff was on the negative side.

241
00:16:07,759 --> 00:16:11,960
Russ going three of nineteen. Yes, it's happened once before, but

242
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:17,399
it's unlikely to happen again in the
same series, especially getting up nineteen shots.

243
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,919
I expect him to take less.
But Kevin Durant was good. He

244
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,159
didn't take a lot of shots food
out there. He had seventeen points in

245
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,480
the second quarter. They got fourteen
free throw attempts in the second quarter.

246
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:32,759
Bones Highland got hit in the face. They didn't get the benefit of a

247
00:16:32,799 --> 00:16:36,000
great whistle in that ball game.
They still found a way to win.

248
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:41,519
Norman Powell can still get an easy
twenty plus in this series. Terrence Man

249
00:16:41,679 --> 00:16:45,440
can play much better. They have
a ton of guys that can still erupt

250
00:16:45,519 --> 00:16:48,840
and have a big performance, and
we call that the Terrence Man game or

251
00:16:48,879 --> 00:16:52,480
the Bones Highland game. They haven't
had one of those yet. So the

252
00:16:52,559 --> 00:16:55,679
Clippers still have a lot left in
their quiver. You know, they got

253
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,279
a lot left that they can show
the Suns too before they adjust. One

254
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,919
thing I'm kind of curious about,
and you know, we've talked a little

255
00:17:02,919 --> 00:17:06,279
bit about like the rotations and how
I think it's kind of limited until at

256
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:11,559
least Campaign comes back. What the
Suns can do from like a personnel perspective

257
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,920
to try to match up better with
these clippers. One thing I'm curious to

258
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,640
see if they make the adjustment too, is trying to attack the drop coverage

259
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,799
a little bit harder, because that
was a big key. I feel like

260
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,680
in some of those long range shots
that the Suns are happy to settle for

261
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,279
right. They're called the mid range
Mafia for a reason. But do they

262
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:33,839
maybe switch the emphasis to trying to
get to the rim a little bit more

263
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,119
in those situations, especially when they
feel they have a mismatch And is that

264
00:17:37,279 --> 00:17:40,720
something that could be successful? Is
that too big of a change for the

265
00:17:40,759 --> 00:17:44,119
Suns. I don't know. It's
just something I've been thinking about. And

266
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,640
who are the guys that are going
to be doing that. Chris Paul isn't

267
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:52,960
someone who's getting downhill and getting easy
layups anymore like he used to Devin Booker

268
00:17:52,079 --> 00:17:56,400
could, but he just had a
situation where he had his shot blocked in

269
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,480
the biggest moments. Speaking of pressure, he's gonna have to deal with overcoming

270
00:18:00,519 --> 00:18:03,759
that after arguing with the referee and
Russell Westbrook throwing the ball off him.

271
00:18:04,319 --> 00:18:07,759
I don't know if they have the
personnel that's really equipped to do that.

272
00:18:08,039 --> 00:18:11,400
They see eight and get a little
bit more aggressive though, because I feel

273
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:17,400
like that's one thing that maybe they
didn't take full advantage of. Oh yeah,

274
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,880
Carl, how did you feel about
your favorite boy, zoo and just

275
00:18:21,039 --> 00:18:26,799
game one? Listen, man,
let me tell you all some how many

276
00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:33,079
points did Tory Craig had. Tory
Craig had twenty two? Right? Twenty

277
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:38,319
two? Correct? All right,
let's move off from Zoo bat. That's

278
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,880
the point. The point is where
Tory Craig to have twenty two though,

279
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:51,680
who cares? Listen, This man
got online and said, did you expect

280
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,480
that twin two points tonight? He
said, yeah, once I saw zoo

281
00:18:53,519 --> 00:18:59,079
Bog was guarding me. Right,
that's disrespectful because he wasn't really guarding him

282
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,039
either. He was shade off of
him. He was on him just so

283
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,759
he could still have a foot in
the lane. What you guys are zoos?

284
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:12,279
Absolutely? What does Zoo got to
do to get a thumbs up from

285
00:19:12,319 --> 00:19:18,039
you? Also and were talking about
Zooba. I need you to do something

286
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:25,000
for me, Adam Aslin, what's
that name the center? I need you

287
00:19:25,039 --> 00:19:29,160
to name ten of the top ten
centers in this league? Well, because

288
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:33,160
I said Zoo's the top ten center
in this league. Yeah, I couldn't

289
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,519
tell you. Probably ten. Look, okay, who's better than Zoe?

290
00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:41,920
Let's go there? That's what That's
what I meant that yokitch Bamn. I

291
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:47,119
guess if you count him? Would
you rather have Zoo or Bam? You

292
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,960
know they have Bama? Would you
rather have we know him? We know

293
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,440
your answers to him beating Yoki.
Would you rather have Valentunas or Zoo?

294
00:19:55,039 --> 00:20:02,440
Zoo? Zoo better? I don't
know if I feel that way, Like

295
00:20:02,599 --> 00:20:07,880
just his reliable, like Zoo's reliability
is. Now, while I'll give you

296
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,519
all this, I'll give you all
this, Zoo is better than Mason plumbering

297
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,039
the people who think that Mason should
be starting, I don't I don't agree.

298
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,720
I don't agree with that, Glen, I don't agree with that.

299
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:19,559
Mazon Blumber is just starting to sinning
in the league. He may be on

300
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:23,640
the on the on the on the
bottom. Morning you're saying the Clippers are

301
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:27,720
gonna win this series if they,
you're also gonna be saying to Viza Zoo

302
00:20:27,759 --> 00:20:32,599
Bots is better than DeAndre Aiden,
because that's I hope you're right, But

303
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,279
right now, would you rather have
DeAndre Ayden or A visit the Zubox like

304
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:42,160
your team Zoo and his contract for
sure? Okay, let's talk about defensive

305
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:47,279
play within six feet of the rim. DeAndre Aiden's given up sixty two percent

306
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,039
in those situations. He's not the
defender that Visa Zoo Bots is at the

307
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,039
rim, which is what the Clippers
need. Can't he catch the ball and

308
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,319
make a mid ring? Would you
rather give me your numbers on who's better

309
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,960
at catching the ball and who has
better hands? Man, I don't know

310
00:21:00,039 --> 00:21:03,200
the numbers. I'm gonna tell you
like it might be eight though, I'm

311
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:07,359
gonna I'm gonna be real. At
this point, every every team, every

312
00:21:07,519 --> 00:21:15,519
fan base complains about like unless unless
you could go to Cleveland and maybe go

313
00:21:15,599 --> 00:21:21,839
to Jared Allen or Evan Mobile,
I'd rather have Jared Allen in your business

314
00:21:22,079 --> 00:21:23,839
I'd rather have Bevan Mobile as well, but I think it's I think it's

315
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,480
pretty obvious. As a defensive center, Zubos is in the top ten.

316
00:21:27,759 --> 00:21:32,559
Yes, listen, I'm I was
proud of Zubos this year. I think

317
00:21:32,599 --> 00:21:34,720
there were times where we needed him
to come up more and he didn't.

318
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,400
There were times where he got into
bad foul trouble and he didn't need to.

319
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,119
He just wasn't quick enough on his
feet. There are matchups that exploit

320
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,440
him in a way that other centers, even when they are on the lower

321
00:21:45,559 --> 00:21:49,960
tier, don't get exploited. And
he bother He bothers me something to give

322
00:21:51,039 --> 00:21:57,519
details a good offensively through like he
was the most efficient offensive player to start

323
00:21:57,599 --> 00:22:06,160
this game. We would rather have
my man what's what's twins name in in

324
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:11,480
in Milwaukee Lopez. Would you rather
have a Brook Lopez or a well Lopez

325
00:22:11,559 --> 00:22:15,720
was just probably yeah? Why so? Yeah? Probably a little Pez.

326
00:22:15,759 --> 00:22:18,839
He's top ten for sure. All
right, thank you so much. It's

327
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,920
all on the same. You didn't
name guys better than two. I think

328
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:29,640
I named seven eight, so I'll
give you if he stopped in. He's

329
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,720
ten. He's top ten, absolutely, Yeah, He's not like top five.

330
00:22:33,319 --> 00:22:37,960
It's like the top It's like how
PG is on the top ten player.

331
00:22:38,319 --> 00:22:44,720
But don't you fix your face?
Who ad Anthony Davis? Yeah,

332
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,920
when he's healthy is top about Come
on, that's a basketball that's basketball.

333
00:22:48,079 --> 00:22:52,000
No one, no one who is
dependent on someone else offensively is a top

334
00:22:52,039 --> 00:22:56,680
five player period. All right,
Well we disagree. I'm telling you from

335
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,160
a basketball standpoint. I don't know
the numbers. I don't know the plus

336
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,000
minded, I don't know. I'm
just saying what team is without a better

337
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:07,680
ball handler next to him? And
what team could he lead without a better

338
00:23:07,759 --> 00:23:10,559
ball handler than him next? Well, I mean, what so you think

339
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,960
Yoki Yoki is the number two center
in the league? Right? It's I

340
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,319
think or that that one too.
Yeah, they're like they're they're a tear,

341
00:23:18,519 --> 00:23:21,839
and then there's kind of everybody else. Do you think, what does

342
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:26,640
what does yokis do with ad?
Healthy ad versus what does healthy a d

343
00:23:26,799 --> 00:23:30,440
do with Yoki? Like against each
other, versus each other, verse,

344
00:23:30,559 --> 00:23:37,559
each other, verse each other.
Adi's cooking him one or I think that's

345
00:23:37,559 --> 00:23:42,119
a little bit overrated, and Davis
always gets the best. I think it's

346
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,039
over We can agree to disagree.
Here's one thing. Oh, we can

347
00:23:45,079 --> 00:23:48,680
agree that Zoo's top ten. Now
we went through it, all right,

348
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:53,319
I'm ten and a half. All
right, all right, we gotta get

349
00:23:53,319 --> 00:24:00,319
this back on track. We're talking
from Charlotte. Yeah, just just you

350
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,720
saw him drop some basketballs. He
shouldn't for a guy at his size,

351
00:24:03,799 --> 00:24:06,839
even though he had broken hands at
the moment. And that's where this whole

352
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:11,599
stigma comes with Piz. When he
first came in, he had broken fingers

353
00:24:11,079 --> 00:24:15,240
on both hands. He had a
broken finger on both hands. He's had

354
00:24:15,279 --> 00:24:18,960
that for the past four years.
Yep, you just said you were impressed

355
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,720
with him this season. I was
more in press. He had a twenty

356
00:24:21,799 --> 00:24:23,599
nine and thirty one game, and
I was like, okay, all right,

357
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:26,400
Carl's like, why can't he do
this every game? Why can't you

358
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:32,039
do that every night? Needs to
take shots. Other guys got to take

359
00:24:32,079 --> 00:24:34,039
shot. If he's not an MVP
candidate, he ain't a good big man.

360
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,039
I guess I don't know. I
mean, I don't know. Welcome

361
00:24:37,079 --> 00:24:41,119
to the modern NBA at him?
Yeah yeah, man, if he hain't

362
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:47,880
got no hang on, no rings. All right. This was a surprising

363
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,279
Twitter Warrior conversation. Much worse all
right, Coming up, we're talking Clippers

364
00:24:52,319 --> 00:24:56,039
in game two, what they'll need
to do other than Zoo having thirty seven

365
00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:00,240
and twenty seven. We got ads
coming up they've been to if you go

366
00:25:00,279 --> 00:25:03,960
ahead and turn it down. Game
two talk coming up in three two one.

367
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,599
All right, welcome back into Clips
and Dip. Your friendly neighborhood.

368
00:25:08,599 --> 00:25:14,240
Clippers podcasts were joined by Carl Tart
today. We talked about how we're feeling

369
00:25:14,279 --> 00:25:18,039
coming off a game off of game
one. What are you guys expecting to

370
00:25:18,079 --> 00:25:22,160
see from Clippers game to Adam,
I'll go ahead and kick it to you.

371
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:26,279
You sometimes have some You generally have
some good stuff to say. Disagree

372
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:33,279
hard, disagree. I raised it
up to quality once a little while,

373
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,559
but uh, you know I said
it last night. I just think Norman

374
00:25:37,599 --> 00:25:41,079
Powell has to be more involved offensively. As good as Eric Gordon was.

375
00:25:41,319 --> 00:25:45,960
Twelve of his nineteen points came in
that first quarter. I don't know if

376
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,000
he's getting nineteen for them if you
want to say, that was the Eric

377
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,240
Gordon game, even though I think
he'll have close to twenty again in one

378
00:25:52,319 --> 00:25:56,119
of these games upcoming. But it
may not be in game two. You

379
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,480
may not be able to sustain this
performance and roll it over Norman Powell,

380
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,119
though only fourteen points, six of
those coming in the fourth quarter. Get

381
00:26:03,279 --> 00:26:07,880
him rolling, get him going downhill. Because the Clippers lost the free throw

382
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,240
battle they attempt at twenty nine the
Sun's attempt at thirty three. If you

383
00:26:11,319 --> 00:26:15,599
want to win that, and I
think they need to overall in the series,

384
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,480
Norm Pale's got to get involved.
And it's not just about him and

385
00:26:18,599 --> 00:26:23,440
his foul baiting which people call it, or him exaggerating the contact gets to

386
00:26:23,599 --> 00:26:29,720
the rams sometimes famously, he's the
only guy in the league that has that

387
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,359
disgusting He's still if you're attacking right
at the cylinder, you're gonna get more

388
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,599
calls. And that's what Norm Powell
does, especially when he's going to his

389
00:26:37,759 --> 00:26:41,960
right. Unless big zoos there,
which he's not because he's on his team,

390
00:26:41,039 --> 00:26:45,319
nobody can stop him at the rim. Yeah, only four free throw

391
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,720
attempts for for Powell on this one, and you talk to we talked about

392
00:26:48,799 --> 00:26:52,079
kind of coming into this game,
like the free throw disparity and like volume

393
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:56,279
and efficiency from three are offensively just
the two best things the Clippers can do

394
00:26:56,599 --> 00:27:02,480
to overwhelm the town. For the
Suns, right, So I think it

395
00:27:02,559 --> 00:27:06,240
Clippers. It just goes back to
the stolen thing a Clippers win, wherein

396
00:27:06,319 --> 00:27:10,759
Norm Powell only takes four free throw
attempts, also not really stealing anything.

397
00:27:11,839 --> 00:27:15,000
And another thing too that was kind
of interesting is we had how many starters

398
00:27:15,039 --> 00:27:18,359
with four or more fouls for the
Suns, Like, you know, like

399
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,559
I think we could have pushed the
issue a little bit more and even got

400
00:27:22,599 --> 00:27:26,279
things a little bit harrier for the
Suns and how they could defend us going

401
00:27:26,319 --> 00:27:30,000
down the stretch. Four of their
five guys had at least four fouls.

402
00:27:30,079 --> 00:27:33,440
That's crazy. And you know,
part of the reason the Phoenix Suns and

403
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:38,119
their guys off the bench and that
rotation was out of whack. They started

404
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:41,440
Tory Craig, they wanted to go
that route, so that kind of threw

405
00:27:41,519 --> 00:27:47,720
everything out of source for them.
That campaign campaign is questionable for game two,

406
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,559
Carl, do you think if campaign
plays the spread right now seven a

407
00:27:51,599 --> 00:27:53,640
half points? Do you think if
campaign plays, the Clippers are in I

408
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,880
don't know if trouble's the right word, but you know what I mean,

409
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,680
like that just bolsters. I mean
he's their best bench player. Obviously,

410
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:06,160
Yeah, I hate campaign. He
is on my he is on my Why

411
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,039
he's such an annoying little dude,
Like I know exactly what you're saying,

412
00:28:11,759 --> 00:28:14,920
Such an annoying little dude. I
hate him against every team. I hate

413
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,880
him against teams that I hate.
When I see him coming to the game

414
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,960
against the Celtics, I'm rooting for
the Celtics when I like, I really

415
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:26,519
cannot stand. He seems like such
a like I'm such a loud mouth when

416
00:28:26,559 --> 00:28:29,759
I'm when I'm good, and I
mostly suck, Like you know what I

417
00:28:29,839 --> 00:28:33,400
mean, Like you know what I'm
saying. It makes sense, like he

418
00:28:34,079 --> 00:28:40,680
just yeah, I'm yeah that good
good name changed for me. Uh but

419
00:28:40,839 --> 00:28:44,119
I do I do think that,
you know, against teams like the Clippers

420
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:48,839
against he does play well and I
and with Chris Paul not being tiptop,

421
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,000
I think he's a good backup point
guard for him. And uh but I

422
00:28:52,119 --> 00:28:56,000
think I also think that Russ.
I trust Russ on campaign if that's if

423
00:28:56,039 --> 00:29:00,039
that sounds crazy. No, we
talked a little bit coming into this series,

424
00:29:00,119 --> 00:29:04,680
like I think when Russ is an
on ball defender, he is not

425
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:07,839
I mean he's not He's a not
as bad as people have made him out

426
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,319
to be. Over his career,
And I was saying coming into this series,

427
00:29:11,359 --> 00:29:15,400
like, I'm not losing my mind
if it's russ on on Booker or

428
00:29:15,519 --> 00:29:18,079
Russ on Chris Paul. You know, you know, one on one like

429
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,400
type of situation. I don't think
that you're getting I don't think that you're

430
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,480
getting burned fifty one percent of the
time as Adam. As Adam would guess,

431
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:30,799
I'm losing more in my mind if
he's Guarden Devin Booker. But I'm

432
00:29:30,279 --> 00:29:33,680
not losing my mind if he's Guarden
campaign. Hey, I saw this that

433
00:29:33,839 --> 00:29:37,319
just came out. Joey Lynn put
this out on Twitter. But Russ defended

434
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,519
k D, Devin Booker, and
Chris Paul for fifty nine combined possessions.

435
00:29:42,799 --> 00:29:45,960
They scored just six points on twenty
five percent shooting. Yeah, but how

436
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,519
many shots did they actually think?
Yea, how many shots. There may

437
00:29:48,599 --> 00:29:52,039
be a reason they didn't take that
many shots. If you don't get to

438
00:29:52,039 --> 00:29:55,599
your spots, you're not taking him
as much. He was good yesterday defensively,

439
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,839
I'm not saying he wasn't good.
I'm not here. I'm not going

440
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,759
to sit here pretend that he shut
down these three players in a dynamic way

441
00:30:03,799 --> 00:30:07,839
that held them to twenty percent shooting. Here's the thing about him guarding it.

442
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:14,559
He started on Kadi, right,
So I think, yeah, Katie

443
00:30:14,759 --> 00:30:19,759
was was was played that stupidly in
my opinion, Sure, why are you

444
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:25,680
not just going to the post and
killing him like he's trying to prove some

445
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,400
stupid shit and uh and that's why
he's, you know, not taking enough

446
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,160
shots and being inefficient if you,
I mean as inefficient as he's gonna as

447
00:30:33,279 --> 00:30:40,480
kdo. So with Russ, I'm
not gonna again, you know how I

448
00:30:40,519 --> 00:30:44,240
feel about that stat. But he's
got to take less than nineteen shots,

449
00:30:44,359 --> 00:30:48,000
right, I don't think we're getting
through another game with a victory if Russ

450
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:52,720
is And I'm not even saying going
three of nineteen, I'm saying just taking

451
00:30:52,839 --> 00:30:56,920
nineteen shots. He should not be
taking nineteen shots. That was John Starks

452
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:02,559
Game seven against Houston ninety four or
two of eighteen. But right, I

453
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:07,039
would say like fourteen shots around there
maximum. If he goes six to fourteen

454
00:31:07,279 --> 00:31:10,960
tomorrow night, that would be fine. And he did miss a lot of

455
00:31:11,039 --> 00:31:14,880
easy ones. That little fall away
leaner he's got like he can hit those.

456
00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:17,920
That's what he did against that game
against Memphis when they didn't have Kawhi

457
00:31:18,039 --> 00:31:19,119
Leonard, you know, an hour
before the game they figured that out.

458
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,799
Russ won it for him, and
that back to back in Memphis, he

459
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,680
was hitting that consistently. He's capable
of a bounce back performance offensively. But

460
00:31:26,839 --> 00:31:32,359
yeah, it doesn't have to be
nineteen shots. Ye, how x is

461
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,279
Kawai gonna play? Are we in
line for another? It's at least forty,

462
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,759
right, Like, is it just
twenty and then twenty and we hope

463
00:31:40,799 --> 00:31:45,720
that in those four minutes he's not
playing that the bench and Russ can figure

464
00:31:45,759 --> 00:31:49,359
it out, like it has to
be forty. Yeah, I don't see

465
00:31:49,359 --> 00:31:52,720
anyone. I don't see any way
for the Clippers to win with him playing

466
00:31:52,799 --> 00:31:55,839
less than that. But you know
that's the playoffs like that. Yeah,

467
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,160
that's what he's here for. That's
what he sat all season four. Yes,

468
00:31:59,359 --> 00:32:00,960
literally, that all the last pot. This is why loads man,

469
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:06,240
This is the good example of load
management working. Is forty plus minutes,

470
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,640
thirty eight points defending the best players
on the other team. Yeah, and

471
00:32:09,759 --> 00:32:14,279
he's not afraid of the suns at
all. Like if you watched his shots,

472
00:32:14,359 --> 00:32:15,920
none of his shots are in the
paint. He does not care what

473
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:20,720
they're throwing at him. They would
shade doubles. When he was guarded by

474
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,480
KD with eighton coming around and ver
telling he was he did not care at

475
00:32:23,599 --> 00:32:29,599
all. Like we need Kawai to
play forty. I hope we don't need

476
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,359
thirty eight from Kawhi. We are
going to need thirty right. I don't

477
00:32:32,359 --> 00:32:37,720
want to sound crazy there, but
like I'm hoping, I don't. I

478
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:39,920
don't know if it's Terrence. I
don't know if it's another bench guy.

479
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,559
We talked about not being afraid of
the Suns, and I think a guy

480
00:32:44,599 --> 00:32:47,319
that could step up and is definitely
not afraid of the Sons is Terrence Man.

481
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,519
He's not afraid of anybody. He's
not afraid of anybody. I love

482
00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:57,000
the way he was guarding CP.
What do you want to see Carl tart

483
00:32:57,119 --> 00:33:01,799
from from Terrence Man from Enemy Number
One? I want to see I want

484
00:33:01,799 --> 00:33:05,319
to see Terrence Man play the game
that I know he can't play, not

485
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:12,400
timidly. Yeah, too many turnovers. Uh. I was. I was

486
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:16,039
so stressed out and my and my
tumos weren't super working, so I had

487
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:20,720
I went and I went to the
movies and to watch Air and uh,

488
00:33:23,599 --> 00:33:27,680
I gotta I gotta go see a
feel good story about it man getting the

489
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:34,480
first shoe deal. Um, but
this is a paid promotion. Hey listen,

490
00:33:34,559 --> 00:33:37,680
man, I'm not a corporate shill, but if I were to be,

491
00:33:37,039 --> 00:33:44,920
I would say, go see the
motion picture Air. No pretty good

492
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:45,759
movie, by the way, but
I want to see I want to see

493
00:33:45,839 --> 00:33:49,119
him cut down on the turnovers.
I want to see him step up defensively,

494
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,920
and I want to see him also
to fill his role. His role

495
00:33:53,920 --> 00:34:00,799
is Kroger Brand PG and Kawhi like
he's our guy. I mean, yeah,

496
00:34:00,799 --> 00:34:01,920
he went over three from three.
You'd like to see at least one

497
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,440
of those falls. I want one
of those go in. I wanted to

498
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,320
take more like don't don't fall into
old. One thing I used to get

499
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:14,679
mad at him about in previous seasons
was he would get into I'm scared mode

500
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,599
or what at least what it felt
like he passed up that the layup right

501
00:34:17,679 --> 00:34:22,559
underneath the rim. I think he
passed out. He missed the three and

502
00:34:22,599 --> 00:34:27,159
it was kind of like Terence Man, we're up five. Yeah, maybe

503
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:30,880
just lay it in in. Uh
So I want to see that. Yeah,

504
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,079
like you said, cut down on
the turnovers and just just play it.

505
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,679
Play it at your clip, bro, Like do what you do.

506
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,800
Like be that guy that that we
need you to be when Kawhi needs to

507
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:45,960
breathe here and you're the defensive anchor
out there with some players that may not

508
00:34:46,079 --> 00:34:51,079
be as defensively strong as you are, especially if Power one's up any more

509
00:34:51,119 --> 00:34:52,960
minutes. I think that he could
really help out there, especially if if

510
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,280
you know, those guys are out
there with Kawhi taking a break. Um,

511
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,000
I'll tell y'all I saw him.
I told y'all I saw him right.

512
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:05,320
Oh, I'll tell you the story
of seeing Terrence Man at Creation Organic.

513
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:09,840
Yeah. I mean, I'm happy
he's eating so healthy. That's so.

514
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,920
I'm driving to the gym and it
was not the same day you saw.

515
00:35:14,599 --> 00:35:16,159
No, not that would have been
insane, but it was. It

516
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:20,519
might have been around the same week. It was a good week, but

517
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,159
it was a few weeks ago.
I'm driving down the street. My gym

518
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:29,119
is on Highland and Santa Monica basically, so I drive down. I get

519
00:35:29,199 --> 00:35:32,920
off the freeway at at Kawanga and
take the you know, Wilcox to Lexington

520
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,719
and on the corner of Lexington and
Highland is a creation and so I pull

521
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:45,760
up and Terence Man is there with
his lady. Real look and uh that

522
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:50,880
man is in the NBA. Uh
and got a second contract more importantly,

523
00:35:51,119 --> 00:35:55,199
not just in the NBA. Yeah, actually in the contraction. And so

524
00:35:55,760 --> 00:36:00,480
he had like a box of something
and they're kind of talk and they got

525
00:36:00,519 --> 00:36:01,760
a dog out. I think they're
like letting a dog pee. And I

526
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,960
see him. I go, that's
Terrence Man. And I'm like, I

527
00:36:06,119 --> 00:36:08,400
let down my window and I go
t Man, and he like looks up

528
00:36:08,559 --> 00:36:15,679
and I go, clipper Nation baby. He goes and just kind of keeps

529
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:22,360
walking. I send you guys the
picture of his back. Uh. But

530
00:36:22,519 --> 00:36:25,079
like he didn't give me no,
And I was like, damn, I

531
00:36:25,159 --> 00:36:29,519
feel like a stupid ass for yelling
at it. Like it made me feel

532
00:36:29,559 --> 00:36:32,400
so because I don't like I get
weird with with that type of stuff,

533
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:36,360
especially with that. So I was
just like, damn, I shouldn't have

534
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,159
bothered him. But because he was
not enthused. But then I also was

535
00:36:39,159 --> 00:36:42,400
like, well, what did I
expect him to do? My man walk

536
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,159
over to my car and me,
oh my god, I know you from

537
00:36:46,159 --> 00:36:52,599
Clipson dep Yeah, he did not
know you from that. That's very fair.

538
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,719
Um, yeah, man, I
hope Terrence Man can get the can

539
00:36:55,880 --> 00:37:00,400
feel the connection he felt when you
yelled at him at Creation and and have

540
00:37:00,519 --> 00:37:05,800
a better game too. He did
not see Well, wait a minute,

541
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,000
hold the phone, Carl tut Is
that my man right there? It was

542
00:37:10,039 --> 00:37:15,039
a background on Glee is my favorite
show. He's gonna have one of those

543
00:37:15,159 --> 00:37:20,039
Jordan Pool performances when he sees the
batties on the sidelines. Just thinking about

544
00:37:21,599 --> 00:37:30,519
when Garrets vancies cartroying Neonder eight.
That's a good time. Um. What

545
00:37:31,119 --> 00:37:35,320
I don't know, are we worried
about anyone on the bench from the Suns

546
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,599
sham starting lineup? Also because the
Clippers aren't the Clippers one game one,

547
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,199
if the Clippers would have lost,
I think we would have seen the starting

548
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:45,920
lineup change. I don't know what
it is, but the Clippers one.

549
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,360
So we're going steady. Are the
Sun's gonna put a coge in because a

550
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,800
lot of Sunstrands were pissed off that
he did not play. If they go

551
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,920
back to a coke he I kind
of feel like that's them already. A

552
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,960
little shook and a white flag.
It's conceited yeah, like maybe making maybe

553
00:38:00,159 --> 00:38:02,920
making the change early was already then
being a little bit nervous about about the

554
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,960
defense um and dealing with kauai Um. But I think too, like,

555
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:12,840
I mean, it's only a five
point loss to immediately make the change.

556
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,519
I think that is a good sign
for the Clippers that maybe there's an overadjustment

557
00:38:16,599 --> 00:38:21,480
happening there, which to me would
well lead me to believe that they got

558
00:38:21,519 --> 00:38:23,239
some uncertainty, that they're a little
that they're a little scared of this Clippers

559
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:28,159
team. Yeah, they're running out
of moves, while the Clippers still have

560
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,000
so many in their bag with coach
Flew that they can still make out there

561
00:38:31,519 --> 00:38:37,079
so per usual. Hey, Rocoke
is still getting this series. I still

562
00:38:37,119 --> 00:38:42,360
God, dude, I wanted Robert
coming into play so much more basketball here,

563
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,800
and even I am no longer on
the we must see Roco come out

564
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:49,679
there and do it a little thing
like I would love it. I am

565
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,000
not, I reside that is in
my I don't know. I don't even

566
00:38:52,039 --> 00:38:58,400
know what I thought it was gonna
be him those those practice practice jersey photos

567
00:38:59,079 --> 00:39:04,800
we thought he was on He was
guarding Brandon Boston Jr. Who was KD

568
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,679
in the in practice, and I
thought I thought they were gonna start Roko

569
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:13,920
on Kadi if they lost Game one. I thought they would have done that.

570
00:39:14,199 --> 00:39:16,199
The real question is, Carl Turt
did you buy the Roco jersey?

571
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:20,039
Is that why he is doomed?
And in this Clipper's rotation, I did

572
00:39:20,079 --> 00:39:22,559
not buy the Roco jersey because I
don't want him to get traded. All

573
00:39:22,679 --> 00:39:25,960
right, what did you do with
the John Wall jersey? Was hanging up

574
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:31,559
in my closet next to who my
uh, next to my three pat babs.

575
00:39:34,599 --> 00:39:39,000
Yeah, my Tobias Harris eighty four. Uh could be soon as if

576
00:39:39,599 --> 00:39:45,159
you know. I went back to
NBA Auctions to get a zoo because there

577
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:49,480
was a zoo up there. So
probably the cheapest jersey on the on the

578
00:39:49,599 --> 00:39:52,519
site. Uh, that's not And
and that was I was even I was

579
00:39:52,599 --> 00:39:59,480
disrespected by that. It was it
was. It was three hundred a game

580
00:39:59,599 --> 00:40:02,639
warn for like, oh god,
yeah, was it this thirty twenty nine

581
00:40:02,679 --> 00:40:07,440
game though it was not that one. Oh that would have been actually super

582
00:40:07,519 --> 00:40:09,039
tight. That one probably went for
a lot. If he didn't keep that,

583
00:40:09,159 --> 00:40:12,719
I would have twelve hundred bucks.
That's gonna be the best game of

584
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,400
his career. Zoo probably sold it
himself. He was like, twelve hundred

585
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:20,039
bucks game. I don't want it, my brother, Yeah, no,

586
00:40:20,199 --> 00:40:21,840
I was gonna buy. I was
like, yeah, let me get this,

587
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,400
Zoo, because I was thinking of
the jerseys of the players that I

588
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,199
could fit on the team, and
it's probably Zoos, even though it would

589
00:40:27,199 --> 00:40:30,760
be super long, but I could
fit it up top. Yeah. Yeah.

590
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:31,800
I was like, yeah, you're
like, it fits up top just

591
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:38,000
look at me. Yeah, and
it looks great. Big Zoo have to

592
00:40:38,119 --> 00:40:42,840
do to impress you in this series
average fifteen and fifteen, Hell yeah,

593
00:40:43,079 --> 00:40:45,840
and he can do that. Absolutely
can do that. Yeah, in thirty

594
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:52,079
minutes a game, you'll be fair. Be fair should be doing that.

595
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,599
He's already at twelve and fifteen,
so he just needs three four points.

596
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,719
Top ten center in the league should
be doing that. Part of it is

597
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,960
I'm a feature him, but when
they do he performs left in two turnovers,

598
00:41:04,119 --> 00:41:07,119
I'm giving him two two. That's
a good metric. Actually, I

599
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,519
like the idea. I'm last game. That's a thing we talked about.

600
00:41:10,559 --> 00:41:14,920
So turnovers. If the Clippers aren't
shooting themselves on the foot, they got

601
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,159
a good chance to win this game. Too. Will what's another thing?

602
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:23,559
Maybe you're looking foreign game too?
To bring it back two? To bring

603
00:41:23,679 --> 00:41:27,960
it back to two? Oh well, I mean we already talked about Norm

604
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:34,039
Powell going off, We talked about
some of the bench guys. I'm curious.

605
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,599
I'm just curious to see how Kawhi
is going to adjust if they do

606
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:43,599
end up sending doubles out in more
aggressively more double and I think that I

607
00:41:43,679 --> 00:41:46,599
think that it can go either way. I mean, I've been really impressed

608
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:51,400
at times with Kauahi being able to
pass out of those situations. But what

609
00:41:51,679 --> 00:41:54,440
happens if we don't get the performances
that we got last night from the role

610
00:41:54,519 --> 00:42:00,639
player guys? What if shots aren't
going down? Train to far here?

611
00:42:00,119 --> 00:42:06,000
What? What you know? What
is his answer? What is our answer?

612
00:42:06,039 --> 00:42:10,000
Then? How do we counter Norm
man Bones? They can all play

613
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:17,119
much better. Eric Gordon could still
get you fifteen he's got he's got an

614
00:42:17,119 --> 00:42:21,000
average fifteen and eighteen or I want
to lose my shirt over this series.

615
00:42:21,639 --> 00:42:23,880
I'm surprised that he got minutes like
he did. Who Bones? Yeah,

616
00:42:24,159 --> 00:42:28,199
I kind of was too man like. Thirteen was kind of a lot for

617
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:30,400
that game. Here was here was
my thing with that. We talked about

618
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,639
this a little bit coming in.
I asked these guys if they thought Terrence

619
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,039
Mann and Bones would come out with
Kauai as they have done post All Star

620
00:42:38,159 --> 00:42:42,599
Break. And the thing to me
is like the lineups have just been so

621
00:42:43,119 --> 00:42:46,400
good with that, Like with that
unit, I just don't get why you

622
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:50,960
would stray away from it, right, um, And I you know,

623
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:52,880
I think it was a little bit
diminishing returns in game one. Obviously things

624
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:57,559
are different playoff environment, um,
but I think yeah two have come like

625
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:01,679
to completely abandon that to me would
actually be kind of troubling that maybe Tyler

626
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:06,039
is overthinking things a little bit too
much. So I'm curious to see what

627
00:43:06,159 --> 00:43:08,880
Bones's minutes looked like in this game
too. But do you think it depends

628
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:13,679
if they start a code againstead of
Craig or do you think I want I

629
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:19,519
want a Mere Coffee locking up Tory
crate, a Mere Coffee jersey. I

630
00:43:19,599 --> 00:43:22,440
mean, if if he gives a
jersey on NBA auctions, I'm buying it.

631
00:43:22,519 --> 00:43:24,119
His was more expensive than zoom buds. He did have one on that

632
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:28,800
and it was it was four forty. He had people in Minnesota run on

633
00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,519
that bet up, I bet all
the Brian and Semen nicknames and stuff.

634
00:43:32,559 --> 00:43:36,320
He's given them all the poets.
That's actually that's actually a good point.

635
00:43:36,559 --> 00:43:40,360
But Bones and team Man started the
second quarter with Russ, with Norman Powell

636
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:45,480
and Mason Plumley, and they won
those minutes that they got them up to

637
00:43:45,559 --> 00:43:49,559
sixteen, just like they had been
starting second quarters recently. With Kawhi going

638
00:43:49,599 --> 00:43:52,480
to the bench after playing the full
first quarter, he went right back to

639
00:43:52,639 --> 00:43:55,679
it and it worked. So I'd
expect to see it again. And we

640
00:43:55,800 --> 00:44:00,159
talked about the three point kind of
math problem here for the Clippers. They

641
00:44:00,199 --> 00:44:02,719
only hit thirty two of their threes. The suns shrink the floor, they

642
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:06,039
put a bunch of guys in the
paint, especially when Russ's out there.

643
00:44:06,039 --> 00:44:08,440
We're going to see that, so, like I am really hoping we see

644
00:44:09,159 --> 00:44:13,760
some of these goose eggs from some
three point shooters are a little bit better.

645
00:44:14,199 --> 00:44:16,599
Russ, do not take six three
pointers. I do not care how

646
00:44:16,599 --> 00:44:20,840
Hope and they are. Please do
not take six three pointers. Norm's gonna

647
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,159
get hit more than one of four, Tarren's gonna hit more than one of

648
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:24,440
three. Bones was probably gonna hit
more than one of three, So we're

649
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:28,840
gonna get some help there too,
And if Batoomb can hit some early,

650
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,599
that will be huge for the Clippers
to take this game too. I think

651
00:44:34,039 --> 00:44:37,880
they hit fifteen threes or more.
I think they're winning Game two. They're

652
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:42,679
thirteen and three when they hit sixteen
or more threes this year the Clippers,

653
00:44:43,119 --> 00:44:45,679
let me change that to sixteen.
Then they hit sixteen or more. They're

654
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:52,880
capable of it, especially twelve when
they hit exactly fifteen. Remember Adam no

655
00:44:52,079 --> 00:44:55,679
to what Will was talking about with
those doubles coming to Kauai. That's when

656
00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:59,559
you have to knock down those shots. That's when the ball is swinging around

657
00:44:59,559 --> 00:45:02,960
the perim. Nicholas Batoum went one
of three from the outside. I wouldn't

658
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:07,199
mind seeing him get a couple more
up in his twenty one minutes, playing

659
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,480
a little bit more in game two, because if Nick Batum gets hot from

660
00:45:10,519 --> 00:45:15,280
three, that's another guy Layton ball
games that just comes up with clutch shots

661
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:19,000
from distance. Yeah, all right, coming up, we're gonna be talking

662
00:45:19,039 --> 00:45:23,039
some predictions why that old man was
yelling at Russell Westbrook at halftime, and

663
00:45:23,119 --> 00:45:25,920
then we might check in with the
Clippers curse. I don't know if he's

664
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,360
around or not. We got ads
coming up. Those have been a little

665
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:34,280
out for people. We got ads
coming up in Predictions Ads in three two

666
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:38,440
one, Clips and Dip episode one
thirty seven. We got a special guest

667
00:45:38,519 --> 00:45:42,760
Carl Tart with us. I'm Adam
Oslin. We got check Monkler, William

668
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,920
Updyke. We did two different podcasts, one on Clippers Talk last night and

669
00:45:46,039 --> 00:45:51,039
then the clips in Dip Pod in
studio in Burbank. You guys definitely want

670
00:45:51,079 --> 00:45:55,760
to check that out at Clippers Podcast
on YouTube, at Clippers Pod on Twitter.

671
00:45:57,199 --> 00:46:00,519
So a video came out, I
guess right after half time. I

672
00:46:00,599 --> 00:46:02,679
didn't see it till much later in
the game. I actually thought it was

673
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:07,559
after the game of Russell Westbrook getting
into it with a fan in like a

674
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:14,159
shoot of the tunnel that almost looked
like best of the Best. Eric.

675
00:46:15,039 --> 00:46:20,440
Yeah, what it is is,
so there is a where the away locker

676
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,159
room means there's a door that's right
in front of that that leads to like

677
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:30,840
Alexis Lounge. Yeah that yeah,
that goes right directly to the court,

678
00:46:31,119 --> 00:46:36,239
as opposed to a super long walk
that gets you to the tunnel. Right.

679
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,599
So he was cutting through there and
somebody said something crazy to him.

680
00:46:40,039 --> 00:46:45,719
Terrible stadium design. Terrible stadium design, especially when your stadium is in Phoenix,

681
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:53,639
Arizona, the Alabama of the of
the West agreed. I love that

682
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:59,320
Arizona's a trash state. Phoenix is
a whole the ground that only exists because

683
00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:01,599
of air condition. If you look
at when air condition was invented, that's

684
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:07,599
when that state started to take off. Um, the NBA is gonna investigate

685
00:47:07,679 --> 00:47:09,480
this, but people don't think anything's
gonna happen to Russ. I can't see

686
00:47:09,599 --> 00:47:14,400
anything happening to us. Better not, he better not get fined for this.

687
00:47:15,599 --> 00:47:17,119
West Brick and he was like,
say that shit again, and the

688
00:47:17,159 --> 00:47:20,440
guy was like, maybe I will, And then Russ was like, I

689
00:47:20,519 --> 00:47:24,280
will. I could kill you if
I wanted to. Was it? Rest

690
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:29,679
Brick was yeah, that's good.
Yeah. If you got to use a

691
00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:34,760
skip bayliss in soul to go after
somebody, you are as unoriginal as a

692
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:37,320
guest. That is pathetic. It
is not even about originality. He was

693
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:44,840
an asshole. And to me,
I'm really upset with the league since the

694
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:51,800
malice in the palace, like these
players should not be subjected to anybody saying

695
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:57,000
anything to them that is not positive, Like now, maybe he shouldn't have

696
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,800
walked again. Even trash talk,
but I think when you're trash talking a

697
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:04,280
guy from halftime, being like,
what's it like to his face? Yeah,

698
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,639
like he's lucking like a chart trash
talk from the crowd. Yeah.

699
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,119
Also fully like, I'm sick of
this. I'm sick of of of Twitter

700
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:14,719
become in real life because people did
not act like this before that. I

701
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:20,360
mean they there were people that did, but they got the carl. Do

702
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:22,760
you think that this this Twitter coming
to real life just has to do with

703
00:48:23,039 --> 00:48:27,920
they're just not being enough ass kickings
anymore. That's it because that dude only

704
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,599
said that because he knows that Russ
technically he had a security too, like

705
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:35,800
he like Russ had security, which
I'm also like, your stadium's broken.

706
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,880
If you're needing to put security.
A clarification on the stadium thing. There's

707
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:45,119
apparently multiple ways to enter the visiting
locker room and this way, well,

708
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:49,199
this way through half court that goes
through the thing. Whatever you're it's it's

709
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,559
not it's not the main entrance to
the visiting matt room. It's like I

710
00:48:52,639 --> 00:48:58,119
guess according to Miriam Swanson, fabulous. Shout yeah, shout out Miriam.

711
00:48:58,199 --> 00:49:00,679
Check out her work as he registered. Uh, the shortcut with something that

712
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:04,960
players got accustomed to doing during the
COVID times because it's just a faster way

713
00:49:05,079 --> 00:49:07,639
the visiting locker room. I think
you go through half quarter or something.

714
00:49:07,079 --> 00:49:13,159
Um. But so that's not gonna
be a thing anymore. But regardless,

715
00:49:13,559 --> 00:49:15,639
like the owners, should isn't on
the players and shouldn't be on the players.

716
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:22,920
They have to walk, they work. So I messed up by I

717
00:49:23,079 --> 00:49:25,840
never get into comment sections on Instagram. I'm not I'm not a guy.

718
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,519
You're even have a Twitter. I
do have a Twitter. Twitter. I

719
00:49:30,519 --> 00:49:32,159
do not have a Twitter. I
do not could be beef and what's going

720
00:49:32,199 --> 00:49:36,880
on? Man? That's because that's
I hate that shit. I hate it

721
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:40,679
so much. And but I did
get into it into a shade room comments

722
00:49:40,679 --> 00:49:45,920
section. Oh that's not worse than
Twitter. That's not worse than Twitter.

723
00:49:45,199 --> 00:49:49,119
It only I got a few reply. I got like fifty replies because because

724
00:49:49,159 --> 00:49:51,480
I'm verified, it goes up to
the top. Yeah that's true. But

725
00:49:51,599 --> 00:49:55,360
I so people were replying. Most
people were on my side because they're somewhat

726
00:49:55,480 --> 00:50:00,360
logical, and I just said that
BA doesn't see again, I we were

727
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:05,239
protecting his players, like from from
stupid fans. That's a that's bad.

728
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,960
And then people were like he the
argument that somebody gets paid. And let

729
00:50:09,039 --> 00:50:14,480
me just say this, Um,
I don't care what player it is except

730
00:50:14,559 --> 00:50:19,239
Joe Ingles, but other than that, no player in the NBA, none

731
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,920
even ones that I don't like.
I don't like Luca Dodges. He shouldn't

732
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:25,480
have to go through it. No
player in the NBA should have to deal

733
00:50:27,199 --> 00:50:31,880
with a human being insulting them that
is in within earshot, within a within

734
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:37,599
a within a distance. That the
yes, no players should have to deal

735
00:50:37,639 --> 00:50:42,400
with that, that play that that
fans should be immediately removed, immediately banned.

736
00:50:42,599 --> 00:50:45,880
When I went to watch a game
at Barclays, we were down in

737
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:51,199
the in the little VIP shout out
to my boy Charlie Widows who and hey,

738
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:54,280
we love Charlie Sandro. He hooked
me up with a with a nice

739
00:50:54,320 --> 00:51:00,360
little uh situation at the Brooklyn nets
h and we got to stand there when

740
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:06,519
the players ran out. The security
was damn deep. There was a standing

741
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,119
and they were like stand here,
Yeah, if you say anything, now

742
00:51:12,079 --> 00:51:15,639
you're out y'all can y'all can y'all
can say what's up? Y'all can say

743
00:51:15,679 --> 00:51:22,159
hey, oh hip hop a ray
oh, but you can if you say

744
00:51:22,199 --> 00:51:24,840
anything negative, you're out. And
I think that's a KD thing, Like

745
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:29,320
I bet you KD was like if
they're gonna stand there, don't let if

746
00:51:29,599 --> 00:51:36,440
they can only say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ye thing when you

747
00:51:36,519 --> 00:51:38,440
look back at that guy and said
stuck mine, I mean, and that

748
00:51:38,599 --> 00:51:43,159
was but that's that's a time where
it's like, I don't understand this.

749
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,119
I stopped my thought. I have
to go back and say this because I'm

750
00:51:46,119 --> 00:51:52,000
gonna say this till I'm blue in
the face. Just because these people make

751
00:51:52,039 --> 00:51:57,639
a certain amount of money does not
mean they should be subjected to assault.

752
00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:00,480
That is a dumb piece of logic. If you agree with that, you

753
00:52:00,559 --> 00:52:05,599
are a dumbass person that needs to
be institutionalized. I do not believe in

754
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:08,559
like, oh, this person makes
more money than me, so I should

755
00:52:08,599 --> 00:52:12,199
be able to insult it. Well, there's a lot of people making a

756
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:15,239
lot more money than professional athletes.
We should be assaulting them. But you

757
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:21,800
don't. Really, we don't get
the access like I just but the access

758
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,079
is exactly the problem, Like they're
selling these tickets for so much money because

759
00:52:25,159 --> 00:52:30,079
you're in close proximity to players,
and that's what leads to this in an

760
00:52:30,119 --> 00:52:34,960
idealistic world. I agree, like
it should never happen. It's just hard

761
00:52:35,119 --> 00:52:38,320
to regulate everything out there because so
many people are saying shit they I think.

762
00:52:38,519 --> 00:52:40,679
I think you're right, though,
they just have to like it just

763
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:45,639
has to be a band like Rust
needs to go to this guy's work and

764
00:52:45,679 --> 00:52:50,480
do the Seinfeld and just heckle him
at whatever used car dealership this guy works

765
00:52:50,519 --> 00:52:52,559
at, or real dirt it is
Arizona. I know it's a diverse economy

766
00:52:52,639 --> 00:52:58,000
between cars and real estate and golf
clubs or whatever they do down there.

767
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:00,320
I would love to happen. They
never want to have that argument though I

768
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:04,079
literally asked the guy, was like, because the guy responds to me like,

769
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:07,039
it's freedom of speech. Rush shouldn't
be solved, and that's not how

770
00:53:07,079 --> 00:53:10,000
freedom of speech works. Man,
he's at his job. If you go

771
00:53:10,159 --> 00:53:15,679
if you go into somebody's job and
you start yelling insults at them and say

772
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:19,360
freedom of speech, you will be
arrested. I worked at du Bobby Burger

773
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:21,800
at the Grove. We have people
yelling us all the time and it was

774
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:27,000
not freedom of speech. Yeah,
I'm calling the cops. Like like,

775
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:30,920
especially, I don't think people realize
and on Twitter for some reason, it's

776
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:35,159
like, if I feel threatened and
you're in my personal space, I have

777
00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:38,159
the option to defend myself, going
to send myself yes and and that.

778
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:42,840
So it ain't just like because what
they say is rushing to get rust that

779
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:44,880
guy wants him to hit him because
we can get sued. I'm like,

780
00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:47,400
there is lawsuits that are that deal
with stuff like that. But also,

781
00:53:47,679 --> 00:53:52,159
if you're in my personal space and
you are assaulting me verbally assaulting, ain't

782
00:53:52,159 --> 00:53:55,039
harassing me. I have the option
to defend myself and that guy can be

783
00:53:55,159 --> 00:54:00,480
physical and I am within my rights
to do. Guy, don't talk about

784
00:54:00,519 --> 00:54:05,679
it. Be about it, like, don't talk about it about that I

785
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:07,199
feel threatened. I'm gonna beat your
ass. Now, what about this?

786
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:12,639
If you want to say disparaging things, you can sign a waiver saying that

787
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:19,480
any athlete is not legally responsible for
anything that happening about that life. Waiver.

788
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:23,800
Yeah, literally name for it.
If you're entering a place that is

789
00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:28,360
close to to be able to interact
with players, you should be able to

790
00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,719
sign a waiver. This is if
you say something crazy, I'm not gonna

791
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:36,480
stop them, and the league is
not responsible because you're signed this contract the

792
00:54:36,639 --> 00:54:42,119
f A A f O waiver.
Fuck around and find out waiver is what

793
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:45,440
the hell do you get off?
Even if, honestly, as much as

794
00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:51,079
I hate Joe Ingles, if that
man walked past me today, are at

795
00:54:51,119 --> 00:54:55,559
Creation or waiting for and I'm waiting. I'm sitting there waiting for Terrence eating

796
00:54:55,599 --> 00:55:01,840
some uh some coconut, the balls
or whatever I don't even know. Yeah,

797
00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:06,119
yeah, And and Joe Eagles walks
in. I'm gonna give him a

798
00:55:06,159 --> 00:55:08,840
dirty look, but I'm not gonna
say nothing crazy to him because he's six

799
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:14,480
eight in the NBA and I don't
give a shit about the Australian Park.

800
00:55:14,559 --> 00:55:22,400
But I uh that that is overhyped
like ad versus yo. But I um,

801
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:25,599
but I but I I'm just him
being a pro athlete that works out

802
00:55:27,119 --> 00:55:31,239
at a high level every day.
I'm not gonna get the gumption that I'm

803
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:35,199
gonna whoop his ass. And I'm
a person who can whoop people's asses.

804
00:55:35,559 --> 00:55:37,400
Right, You're not gonna spend the
block in creation, which would not see.

805
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:42,119
But spending the block is a different
thing. I can say that.

806
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:47,719
I can't say that on that one
off fan player interaction though. This is

807
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:52,199
why Charles Barkley says, like every
show on TNT, he threw a guy

808
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:58,199
through a glass window when he was
a player, right, but he's spent

809
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:00,880
on a little girl. Uh hey, she was a real bitch. People.

810
00:56:04,079 --> 00:56:07,920
But he says before every game,
one fan should be able to come

811
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:12,039
out and get their ass flipped at
half court by a player because that was

812
00:56:12,079 --> 00:56:15,400
set an example to everyone else who
wanted to be a heck of that night.

813
00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:20,880
Yeah, and also, oh man, I just forgot something. Oh

814
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:27,440
E forty and Sacramento. He forty
goes to every Warriors game and and a

815
00:56:27,519 --> 00:56:30,440
lot of the games on the road
he comes down, especially to California Ones.

816
00:56:30,679 --> 00:56:32,119
He's gonna go to the Lakers,
he's gonna go to Clippers, he's

817
00:56:32,159 --> 00:56:36,880
gonna go to Sacramento when they play. Like, do you really think that

818
00:56:37,119 --> 00:56:43,760
E forty instigated a fight with a
fan? Coney, he was being crazy

819
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,519
respectful. He's wearing all black,
like he wasn't even wearing like his usual

820
00:56:46,639 --> 00:56:57,000
Warriors gear, which isn't he was
wearing fucking Rick Berry's skin doesn't matter what

821
00:56:57,159 --> 00:57:00,480
it doesn't matter what he's wearing.
He's not gonna instigate no fight with no

822
00:57:00,599 --> 00:57:04,920
fan. He's a rapper, he's
like, he's got like, he's not

823
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:07,639
gonna instigate no fight with nobody.
That dude was clearly being an asshole.

824
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:10,440
He forty is the one that's being
caught. Man, It's just it's just

825
00:57:10,639 --> 00:57:14,559
bad. It's just bad managing by
the NBA. It's bad on the NBA.

826
00:57:15,639 --> 00:57:21,280
And honestly, if the in between
this and the refereeing, uh,

827
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:22,920
and if the Lakers make the finals
this year, I'm I'm done. I'm

828
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:28,719
done. Next season, I'm done. I'm out. I'm out. Carl

829
00:57:28,719 --> 00:57:31,159
try maybe Okay, who are so
Game two predictions? Are we all predicting

830
00:57:31,199 --> 00:57:35,639
a win? Adam? Are you
predicting a win? I mean, the

831
00:57:35,679 --> 00:57:37,679
Clippers could be playing the Dream Team
and I'd be predicting a win. But

832
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:42,480
uh, I don't think it's gonna
be an easy game. But I am

833
00:57:42,519 --> 00:57:45,280
going to adjust from what I said
before the series, which is they gotta

834
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:49,719
win one of these games that's gonna
be close in the first two games in

835
00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:52,880
Phoenix, and the other likely could
be a Phoenix Suns blowout. I don't

836
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:58,119
know if it's gonna be. The
Clippers didn't give them their best shot and

837
00:57:58,199 --> 00:58:01,000
they still won in Game one.
They have other ways to beat them still,

838
00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:05,679
even if Kawhi doesn't have thirty eight, if he has thirty on twenty

839
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:09,679
two shots and isn't having the most
efficient nights, still, overall they can

840
00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:14,800
win that game with other guys stepping
up, especially Big two. All right,

841
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,519
well, are the Clippers winning game
too? I'm feeling in irrationally confident

842
00:58:17,559 --> 00:58:21,719
about this. I would love nothing
more than to go back into Phoenix and

843
00:58:22,159 --> 00:58:25,400
walk out with another win. Hello, yeah, Carl, are the Clippers

844
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:30,280
winning Game two and taking a commanding
Seriously? Absolutely? Hell yeah, we're

845
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:34,480
winning the game. We're winning this
game. We're winning this game. Lock

846
00:58:34,519 --> 00:58:38,719
it in and then get ready to
be real disappointed. Game three, Carl,

847
00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:40,679
are you going? Are you going
to any of the home games?

848
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:45,400
I do have a ticket. I
do not believe I can go. I

849
00:58:45,519 --> 00:58:47,440
have a I have an engagement.
So if if you three want to fight

850
00:58:47,519 --> 00:58:55,840
for the ticket, I'm already going
media. Oh excuse me, oh hire

851
00:58:55,920 --> 00:59:00,400
up. They put me in the
elevator sometimes, so one O six I

852
00:59:00,519 --> 00:59:05,960
might take a one o six and
Carl, I know that you do live

853
00:59:06,079 --> 00:59:07,920
by yourself, which is a luxury
here in Los Angeles. But do I

854
00:59:08,199 --> 00:59:14,119
see the Clippers curse in your apartment
behind you? Have you here right now?

855
00:59:15,239 --> 00:59:19,960
Hello? Boys? Oh he's back, curse. It was almost a

856
00:59:20,039 --> 00:59:22,719
really good season for you. The
Clippers pulled it out, they made the

857
00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:24,599
playoffs. Well, how are you
feeling? How are you feeling about games?

858
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:28,679
Right? You know what? I
messed up. I messed up completely.

859
00:59:29,159 --> 00:59:31,000
I went to brunch as well,
and I watched the game, and

860
00:59:31,079 --> 00:59:36,039
I got way too drunk, and
I was too drunk to curse the guys

861
00:59:36,079 --> 00:59:38,480
to do what I do, to
do what I do best. I slept

862
00:59:38,599 --> 00:59:42,840
right through the game. And have
you gotten any talk from your friends about

863
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,599
needing to slow it down? And
all? No? Of course not,

864
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:50,159
of course not. They say I
should speed it up. They love the

865
00:59:50,199 --> 00:59:53,079
curse on the sauce eight more mimosas. So what I did? I woke

866
00:59:53,199 --> 00:59:55,360
up. I woke up. The
game was almost over. There was nothing

867
00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:59,239
else I could do. I gave
him a little bit of a razzle dazzle

868
00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:01,599
in the third quarter, but other
than that, there was nothing else I

869
01:00:01,639 --> 01:00:06,039
could do. And so I decided
to go to the movies with Carl and

870
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:09,719
make sure that popcorn holes got stuck
in his gums. Well, Curse,

871
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:14,000
I hope. I hope you're done
this year. I hope it's finished this

872
01:00:14,119 --> 01:00:15,480
year. I don't think you're going
to move into it. I don't think

873
01:00:15,519 --> 01:00:20,679
that will happen, but I might
take that off. As long as our

874
01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:24,320
good buddy Donald Sterling is alive,
I will be here. That is very

875
01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:30,400
truewhere, So enjoy your win.
Perhaps in game two. Maybe I'll miss

876
01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:34,440
that one too. I have a
date, but I will be there for

877
01:00:34,599 --> 01:00:37,559
the home game. Who are you
going on a date with? Curse?

878
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:44,079
What's yeah? What app are you
on? Mother Teresa? Well, Curse,

879
01:00:44,119 --> 01:00:46,920
I think that's about time we thank
you for possessing Carl's body for this

880
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:50,360
one brief second. Carl, I
think you're back. It's very good to

881
01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:55,199
see you back again. Carl,
thank you so much for coming on this

882
01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:59,719
show. Every time we have you
on, Clippers fans absolutely love it.

883
01:01:00,199 --> 01:01:02,079
They love that you're a Clippers fan
from La It's fantastic. Is there anything

884
01:01:02,119 --> 01:01:06,559
you'd like to promote that these people
somehow don't know that you're in your a

885
01:01:06,599 --> 01:01:08,559
lot bigger than we are. So
listen, man, you got shot?

886
01:01:08,679 --> 01:01:16,000
What buddy? Watch Grand Crew on
NBC eight thirty pm. Uh, Friday

887
01:01:16,079 --> 01:01:20,000
nights eight thirty pm. I catch
