They take down the Denver Nuggets here at 7 00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:35.479 Crypto dot Com Arena with a final score of one oh two to one hundred. 8 00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:42.039 They do so without Kawhi Leonard. It's their grittiest, biggest victory of 9 00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:47.439 the season with just six games left. Welcome into Clippers Countdown and make it 10 00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:51.600 Clippers Talk. Make it your Clippers postgame locker room show. Technically webers party 11 00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:56.679 here at Club one eleven. We got Carlo Jimenez post game. We'll take 12 00:00:56.799 --> 00:01:00.520 calls later on on AM five seventy. LA Sports eight six six nine seven 13 00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:03.480 two five seventy is the phone number if you'd like to get on early. 14 00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:08.640 Carlo Jimenez. What a victory by this Clippers team. They didn't have their 15 00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:11.560 best, but they were at their best. When it was required late, 16 00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.879 Adam, if you would have told me the Clippers shot twenty one percent from 17 00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:22.200 three, I would have said, there is a point one percent chance that 18 00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:25.840 they win this game. But to get it done, I think it all 19 00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.719 starts at him with taking a lead in that third quarter, because they hung 20 00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:34.200 onto it the entire way. Denver did not lead after they relinquished the seventeen 21 00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:38.120 point advantage. The Clippers were able to take hold of the charge and never 22 00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:42.040 let go. It was an impressive win, but most impressed by the process 23 00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:47.719 for this Clippers team, really really great stuff. They didn't turn the ball 24 00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:52.319 over, just two of them in the entire second half, and they made 25 00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:56.480 Denver make mistakes. Jokic got his thirty six, but as we talked about 26 00:01:56.519 --> 00:02:00.000 pregame, Adam, it was let Yokic cook, make someone else beat you. 27 00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:04.400 No one else beat them. The Clippers had half the amount of turnovers 28 00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.400 as the Denver Nuggets, the Nuggets with fourteen, the Clippers with seven. 29 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:10.879 In this one, James Harden was just six of twenty three. Really struggle 30 00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:16.560 in the second half, but made the pass to Big Zoo down low late 31 00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:21.479 who made the free throws that were clutch at the free throw line, and 32 00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:24.759 we just saw beats the Zubats a few games ago go ten of ten at 33 00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:29.120 the charity stripe. That's a nice warm up for what we're gonna see from 34 00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:30.800 him late in this ball game. It ain't sexy, it ain't pretty, 35 00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:35.439 but free throws can win you a game, especially in a low scoring affair 36 00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:38.439 like this one. I mean, and they did. Adam twenty seven made 37 00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:43.159 free throws to the Clippers on thirty two attempts and a game where you shoot 38 00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:47.680 your worst percentage of the season against the team Adam that, by the way, 39 00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.800 has lost four games since the All Star Break seventeen and four. They're 40 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.360 the best team in the NBA if you take a twenty game sample size and 41 00:02:55.400 --> 00:03:00.800 the Clippers got it done. You want to talk about a win that really 42 00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:05.080 really could turn things around for this Clippers team. Why I think why this 43 00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:07.240 one could turn things around, Adam, is because in the past it's been 44 00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:12.800 the offense that has shined. But they won this game because their defense was 45 00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:16.360 excellent, because they're tailed Denver to one hundred points, and as an old 46 00:03:16.439 --> 00:03:20.680 voice on this radio used to say, they were the first to one hundred 47 00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:24.520 and it's the law the law was not broken, even by Nikoli Jokic, 48 00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:28.599 who had a look at a three point or late. But guarding him would 49 00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:31.439 be PJ. Tucker, who re entered the ballgame for I believe if it's 50 00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:36.360 a zubos as they went smaller for more switchability out there, and I just 51 00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:39.639 felt like Coach Lee was pushing all the right buttons tonight with his rotations, 52 00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:45.159 with his lineups, and I do think PJ. Tucker, as much as 53 00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:47.800 you can stifle Nikola jokicch and at least give him a different look, did 54 00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:52.919 his thing. Like we saw last season with the Philadelphia seventy six ers, 55 00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:57.240 we talked about a pregame where you'd have PJ. Tucker as his number one 56 00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:00.919 primary defender and then a roaming big man behind him, this time not Joel 57 00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:05.120 Embiid. It was a beats of zoo bots and that look gave Denver just 58 00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:10.599 enough issues. I mean, it was a seat belt from the Clippers underneath. 59 00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:13.520 They really forced Jokic to make tough plays. Adam. He had a 60 00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:18.199 thirty six point seventeen rebound, tennysis triple double, but the Clippers. As 61 00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:23.279 insane as this sounds, he'll take it because he worked. He worked for 62 00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:29.079 every single shot in this ballgame. They made it tough on him the entire 63 00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:33.199 night. I thought it was so impressive by the Clippers defensively. And credit 64 00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:35.800 to you, Adam. The minute Tucker was treated, everyone was like, 65 00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:39.600 what are they gonna do with PJ. Tucker? How are you gonna well, 66 00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:42.240 what are they what's going on? And you said, hey, a 67 00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:48.199 jokic series against Denver. He can provide value, and he provided value in 68 00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:51.920 this game. Missed a couple of shots, but his four personal fouls and 69 00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:55.759 his three rumers. I thought all the bigs today going to even a Mason 70 00:04:55.800 --> 00:05:00.720 Plumley, played really really well on the defensive end. They they made Denver 71 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.959 wake up tomorrow with maybe some scratches and bruises on their arms. It was 72 00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.240 a physical game and it was a fun win for the Clips. The Clippers 73 00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:13.600 have just six games left in the regular season and they just secured their toughest 74 00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:18.560 victory without Kawhi Leonard here at Crypto dot Com arena and showed something else we 75 00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:23.720 talked about, you know what their identity used to be being resilient, playing 76 00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:27.000 their best when the Chips were down, when people were counting them out, 77 00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:30.000 when they were missing one of their superstars. They used to gather up victories 78 00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:32.720 like this all the time over the past couple of seasons. We haven't seen 79 00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:38.519 it as much this year. We just got one of their best tonight against 80 00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:43.279 the Denver Nuggets in a time of need, with everything circling around Kawhi Leonard 81 00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:47.800 the right knee soreness, second game out, and the Clippers come through clutch 82 00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:53.079 against Jokic and the Denver Nuggets here at Crypto dot Com Arena. They win 83 00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:58.720 one to two to one hundred Clipper Nation. I'm already hearing the positivities coming 84 00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:05.040 through the phone lines. I know what's happen happening later tonight, Carlo Jimenez 85 00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:10.399 off the top rope. And the best part about this is we're gonna do 86 00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:15.319 it all over again tomorrow. Right back here is the Clippers take on the 87 00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:19.839 Utah Jazz. Carlo, my friend, great call, especially down the stretch, 88 00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:23.959 rising to the occasion as always, just like the Clippers. Here, 89 00:06:24.439 --> 00:06:27.040 let's do it tomorrow twenty four hours, less than twenty four hours from now. 90 00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:30.759 Hey, all credit goes to Big Bro. Before the ball was timing, 91 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:32.680 he said, we're getting this win. I don't think any of us 92 00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:39.959 believe them, we were wrong. A wise sage in Big Brother Jake Horner, 93 00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:46.759 Big Bro never lost, never wrong. Coming up next, we'll get 94 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:50.040 the second half highlights as the Clippers get a two point victory without Kawhi Leonard 95 00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:55.319 over Nikole jokiching the Denver Nuggets.

Welcome back 102 00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:30.680 into your postgame locker room show. Coming up, we'll get your postgame box 103 00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:34.920 score. The Clippers win by two. They hold on late against Nikola Jokic, 104 00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:40.360 who couldn't get a three pointer to go this time from about half court 105 00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:45.279 on his way too likely having an MVP season still, but the Clippers were 106 00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:49.759 down seventeen in the first quarter, not just the first half. The first 107 00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:55.920 quarter they got ambushed in this one. They were down thirty one to twenty 108 00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:59.720 heading into the second. But in that second quarter they would turn things around. 109 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:05.040 They outscored Denver thirty three to eighteen. They went plus ten with Jokic 110 00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:09.920 off the floor, and then at the half they led by four at fifty 111 00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:15.600 three to forty nine, a twenty one point turnaround from being down seventeen to 112 00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:20.240 up fourth the half. In the third quarter they would extend their lead ever 113 00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:24.160 so slightly, and it was Paul George Pg. Thirteen. You're remaining Superstar 114 00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:28.199 with Kawhi Leonard out helping him out. Left wing, George steps into a 115 00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:33.960 three jack pot Terrence Man finds Paul George, who knocks it in. George 116 00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:37.080 at the FREEKDO line right elbow on KCP, pulls up from the mid range 117 00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:41.600 and rips the ropes. George has been hot with a t I seventeen on 118 00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:43.600 the right wing. He'll try another mid range, He'll buy another ren maage 119 00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:48.200 George left wing. He's feeling good. He drives. He steps back with 120 00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:52.080 ten cat the freakdel line to the ram, the lay up the finish. 121 00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:58.519 Paul George with twenty one time out. Michael Malone in timber Paul George with 122 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:05.440 nine points there in that third quarter as the Clippers were battling and scrapping, 123 00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:09.679 and they outscored the Nuggets twenty two to twenty one in a low scoring affair. 124 00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:13.879 In those twelve minutes, Clippers led seventy five to seventy heading into the 125 00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:18.919 fourth where PG thirteen would once again step up. Big Lane George pen intries 126 00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:22.759 the defense layup at the lip of the rim, off the windowing in PG 127 00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:31.519 thirteen with a freak line jumper down for two Paul George big buckets. When 128 00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:35.159 the Clippers weren't getting many to go in that fourth quarter, but at the 129 00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:39.879 charity stripe of each the Zoo Bots stepped up. He was clutched late. 130 00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:46.000 There were some interesting fouls being called, an ejection of Mike Malone. Oh, 131 00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:50.960 it was nuts here at Crypto dot Com arena and almost felt like that 132 00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:56.679 playoff preview for what we hope could be a Western Conference Finals type of matchup 133 00:09:56.679 --> 00:10:01.360 against the Denver Nuggets. But here was your final. With the Nuggets down 134 00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:07.039 by two with just five seconds remaining in this one, Carlo Amenez taken away, 135 00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:11.960 everyone standing in sweating Gordon in bouncy Jokicic up in your side with three 136 00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:16.080 spins at half ft with two all right wing, three and the horn for 137 00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:22.480 the win. It's sort and the Clippers strike gold en deempor one O two, 138 00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:30.639 one hundred. They take down the Nuggets without Kawhi. Down seventeen in 139 00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:35.799 the first half, the Clippers grind out the grittiest win of the season against 140 00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:43.720 the best team since the break and come away without one O two one victory. 141 00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:50.200 There was your finals. Nikola Jokicic couldn't get this half court shot to 142 00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:54.200 go like he did against the Golden State Warriors. The Clippers come through late. 143 00:10:54.320 --> 00:11:00.000 They win by two without number two and Kawhi Leonard coming up next. 144 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:03.440 It's your postgame box score right here on your Clippers Locker Room show on the 145 00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:09.440 Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network.

They were missing Kawhi, but they brought the 149 00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:33.879 heart and the effort with them. Still they take down the Denver Nuggets with 150 00:11:33.960 --> 00:11:39.279 Nikola Jokish having a thirty six point triple double, but was three point shy 151 00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:43.559 of winning this ballgame for the Denver Nuggets.

We'll take all 158 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.519 your phone calls. But first, let's pause ten seconds for station identification. 159 00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:28.679 Here on A five seven E LA Sports. Let's pause ten seconds for station 160 00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:37.000 identification. Here on AM five seventy LA Sports. This is LA Clippers Basketball. 161 00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:41.919 AM five to seventy KLAC Los Angeles, ninety eight seven KYSR HD two 162 00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:48.159 Los Angeles and iHeartRadio station. The Clippers were down seventeen in the first quarter. 163 00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:50.559 They looked like they didn't belong on the floor. With the Denver Nuggets. 164 00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:56.200 Their championship pedigree was shining through. They were knocking down three pointers. 165 00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:03.799 In the first quarter, they went five of eleven from three. They would 166 00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:09.759 end up only hitting six more three pointers throughout the rest of the ball game. 167 00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:13.639 They shot just thirty one percent from the field From the outside, I 168 00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:16.679 should say forty three percent from the field, and that's where I want to 169 00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:22.399 start. The Clippers defense finally showed up for the majority of this one. 170 00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:26.639 They were still down seventeen. Their offense was failing them early too, leading 171 00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:30.200 to good looks for the Denver Nuggets on the other end, as the Clippers 172 00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:35.559 were turning it over weren't getting back. It looked like the same old story 173 00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:39.120 coming into this one. Last twenty six games since the Grammy road trip, 174 00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:45.840 the Clippers were twenty eighth defensively, and they just held the Denver Nuggets to 175 00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:50.879 one hundred the average points scored per game this season in the NBA one fourteen. 176 00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:56.960 It's tough to play defense when you have to guard the entire floor now 177 00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:01.559 because guys can shoot it from everywhere. But the Clippers have not been given 178 00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:07.480 a good enough effort on that end for a long time. I don't know 179 00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:13.519 what happened post Grammy road trip. Seemed like they flipped found the switch, 180 00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:20.120 but they flipped it off. I'm hoping tonight is them flipping a switch back 181 00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:26.799 on, and this is something you can build off of. You gotta believe 182 00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:30.879 that's the case. With just six games left, the runway is short, 183 00:14:31.720 --> 00:14:37.200 but they're still three games up technically or not technically because of the tiebreaker. 184 00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:39.080 They have a three game lead on the Dallas Mavericks in the four spot, 185 00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:46.039 who won earlier. The Clippers had to have this one. It's the front 186 00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:50.480 end of a back to back, it's the start of a five and seven, 187 00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:54.840 and you learn Kawhi Leonard was going to be out yesterday. He's missed 188 00:14:54.879 --> 00:15:00.879 the last two games right knee soreness. Don't know if we'll be back tomorrow. 189 00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:05.759 Coach Lou was asked about a pregame. You're dealing with adversity from all 190 00:15:05.840 --> 00:15:11.679 angles, from an injury concern with Kawhi and then on the court taken on 191 00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:18.279 the defending champs tonight. It's true they didn't have Jamal Murray either, but 192 00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:24.440 the Clippers rose to the occasion they did. You're down seventeen. I've been 193 00:15:24.440 --> 00:15:28.879 talking about how gritty this Clippers team would be in past seasons when they were 194 00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:33.480 missing a star or both of them, and how many galvanizing wins they would 195 00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:39.679 come up with when they could show out that resilient nature and their depth and 196 00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:46.720 prove that they were more than just their superstars. Tonight, it felt like 197 00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:52.960 they relocated that identity. That's the biggest thing for this team. Players have 198 00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:56.720 been questioning it, what's our identity? Coach Lou called him out for being 199 00:15:56.759 --> 00:16:03.360 soft since then one they went three to one on that last road trip. 200 00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:07.639 Their first game back, they get a victory over the defending champs tonight. 201 00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:14.159 Outside of Kawhi Leonard and that knee injury on the court, things have been 202 00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:22.679 pointing back in the right direction overall. Tonight confirms that you can be upset 203 00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:26.960 about the Sacramento Kings loss, but I don't think anybody cares about that now. 204 00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:33.120 The Clippers showed who they are. We played some audio from Paul George 205 00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:36.799 in the first segment of the pregame show after the loss and Sacramento the other 206 00:16:36.919 --> 00:16:45.399 night, talking about finding themselves again, establishing who they are as a team. 207 00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:51.840 Victories like this reveal your character and your identity. The Clippers are gritty, 208 00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:57.039 are still a tough minded team and for whatever reason, took their foot 209 00:16:57.080 --> 00:17:02.320 off the gas the last couple of months. But four and one over the 210 00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:07.319 last five and getting back to playing some defense. That was a hell of 211 00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:12.000 an effort on the defensive end. They closed out three point shooters after the 212 00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:21.559 first quarter. They threw a multitude of bodies at Nikola Jokic, like you 213 00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:26.839 have to and I said it and tweeted it out as soon as they got 214 00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:33.400 PJ. Tucker. I was looking at tape of him on the Philadelphia seventy 215 00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:41.039 six ers playing next to Joe El Embiid and playing decent defense against Jokic. 216 00:17:41.680 --> 00:17:45.119 I don't know what the numbers ended up being in that one on one matchup, 217 00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:48.880 which really isn't a one on one because the point is you have the 218 00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:53.039 smaller defender front him, you have the bigger defender behind him, and Avitza 219 00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:59.559 zu Bots that has been one of the Formula's teams have tried to slow down 220 00:17:59.680 --> 00:18:03.960 the best player over the last five years. And that's just a fact. 221 00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:12.839 If you have the finals MVP Hardware, two regular season MVPs in your last 222 00:18:12.839 --> 00:18:18.559 three seasons, you're in contention for your third regular season MVP and are likely 223 00:18:18.599 --> 00:18:23.839 going to get it. You're the best player in the league period. He's 224 00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:27.880 incredible. He's a hub on offense. And when that three ball went up, 225 00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:33.039 my heart skipped a beat and I thought it was going to be another 226 00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:38.279 banked in three pointer like he had this season to punctuate his MVP case and 227 00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:45.599 resume when he beat the Golden State Warriors, it looked like it could happen 228 00:18:45.640 --> 00:18:52.599 again, but the Clippers did just enough. They ended up holding the Nuggets 229 00:18:52.640 --> 00:19:00.400 to who is this right? Fifty one points on the second half live with 230 00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:06.640 that all day and forty nine points in the first half. The others weren't 231 00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:12.160 knocking down their shots. Jolkis may have got his at times, but Aaron 232 00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:18.599 Gordon was eighteen and was missing free throws. He was eight or fourteen. 233 00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:22.640 At the Charity Stripe, they went seventeen to twenty five overall, the Clippers 234 00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:27.640 twenty seven to thirty two. At the Charity Stripe. I thought KCP when 235 00:19:27.640 --> 00:19:30.839 he knocked down that three pour in the fourth quarter, was going to start 236 00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:33.920 to get it going, but then he missed one. Jokis didn't have enough 237 00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:42.880 help and the Clippers One of the biggest reasons they won this game is at 238 00:19:42.920 --> 00:19:49.240 the charity stripe at the free throw line, big Zoo. You won't find 239 00:19:49.279 --> 00:19:52.880 a bigger fan of Aviza zu Bus than me and willing to see him on 240 00:19:52.920 --> 00:19:57.400 the court more. He's earned it. He's a made man. And if 241 00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:02.279 you're a big man that can knock it on free throws like he's capable of 242 00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:07.559 hitting clutch free throw after clutch free throw in the last two minutes of the 243 00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:15.000 ballgame, it's gonna be hard to keep him off the court. Love seeing 244 00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:22.480 that from Viatza Zubats who finished with fourteen and fifteen. And it's still gonna 245 00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:26.400 be upset with himself, I know, because he's a perfectionist. For that 246 00:20:26.519 --> 00:20:30.759 miss dunk that he had on the mismatch, the layup that he tried, 247 00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:33.720 it should have been a dunk, but it ended up being a turnover by 248 00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:37.640 Aaron Gordon on the other end, who slipped. I don't know. Somebody 249 00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:45.000 drop a beverage over there, some perspiration. That was a fortunate play going 250 00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:48.640 the Clippers way. I know that's foreign to Clipper Nation, but it just 251 00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:55.640 happened. All the basketball guys looking out, I don't know, seemed like 252 00:20:55.680 --> 00:21:00.799 a good sign earlier today that Kawhi at least was that shoot around. That's 253 00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:07.759 something we don't know the extent of it. It's day to day. But 254 00:21:10.440 --> 00:21:14.200 after the last twenty four hours, forty eight hours from this team to come 255 00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:18.599 through with a victory like this when they needed it, not just because of 256 00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:23.920 the standings, but because it proves something to yourself that we can beat this 257 00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:30.920 team, We can beat Jokic, and we can beat him even without Kawhi 258 00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:37.000 Leonard in this one. They won the last two matchups against Denver this season 259 00:21:37.240 --> 00:21:45.319 after I think losing a straight to them, that's meaningful, not like Denver 260 00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:48.880 wasn't going for this victory. Did you see Mike Malone. I read his 261 00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:53.519 lips. I know what you got thrown out of this ball game? He 262 00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:56.839 said one of those seven words, you can't direct it at an official. 263 00:21:59.079 --> 00:22:03.519 There was some interesting calls on both sides. He was upset because he felt 264 00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:06.640 like Michael Porter Junior was fouled by Viata Zoobots on a closeout, but he 265 00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:11.359 kicked his legs out if anything that could have been an offensive foul. Then 266 00:22:11.359 --> 00:22:17.400 on the other end, Paul George got hacked by casep on a breakaway no 267 00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:22.519 call. For the most part, I'd say they evened out and the Clippers 268 00:22:22.519 --> 00:22:29.160 were just two points better, as simple as that. Eight sixty six nine 269 00:22:29.200 --> 00:22:32.960 eight seven two five seventy eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy. 270 00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:41.119 Let's start things off with who we got? Morris now in Inglewood, formerly 271 00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:45.599 of Long Beach, of the two one three. They were missing the two 272 00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:48.680 tonight Morris and they still got the victory over Denver. How are you feeling, 273 00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:52.200 man, I'm excited. I'm gonna tell you something. This was a 274 00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:57.480 very important game emotionally, psychologically because the let Clipper nation know, hey, 275 00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:00.680 man, we can still play, and let the people in Denifer know, 276 00:23:00.799 --> 00:23:04.200 hey, the Clippers can still play. And I want to address the elephant 277 00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:07.920 in the room. If I may, I don't listen, Kawhi need to 278 00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:10.920 shut down for the rest of the year. We got two games left to 279 00:23:10.920 --> 00:23:15.119 play with Utah. Okay, we're playing for the fourth spot. We're playing 280 00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:17.720 for the fourth spot. We saw that we don't need the brother no more 281 00:23:17.960 --> 00:23:19.880 and getting ready for the playoffs. Okay. I know it's day to day 282 00:23:21.079 --> 00:23:23.400 and that's important, but he don't have to play no more because we've got 283 00:23:23.480 --> 00:23:26.720 him for the playoffs, the guy who's geared for in the playoffs. So 284 00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:30.440 let's get him to the playoffs and then we can go from there. Now 285 00:23:30.559 --> 00:23:33.359 if we if we needed the brother, you know that. You know we 286 00:23:33.359 --> 00:23:36.920 was battling for a seed, that'd be different, but we're not. And 287 00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:41.000 these guys showed something and they got some heart. And uh, you know, 288 00:23:41.039 --> 00:23:42.799 I like Coffee. I know he have the magn different numbers, but 289 00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:45.920 I for something about that brother. I just like him. And uh, 290 00:23:45.960 --> 00:23:48.640 and I'm gonna tell you about Westbrook or you'll miss the money here and there. 291 00:23:48.759 --> 00:23:55.240 Well one thing about Westbrook. There's nobody in the National Basketball Association it's 292 00:23:55.279 --> 00:23:59.559 gonna outwork him. Now he'll miss the money. You know, he ain't 293 00:23:59.559 --> 00:24:03.000 perfect, but ain't nobody putting in more work and got more energy than that 294 00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:06.359 man. Well, when he's given the effort on defense, I agree with 295 00:24:06.359 --> 00:24:08.880 you, Morris, but there are two sides of the floor. Tonight he 296 00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:14.920 was much better defensively. This was the best he has played on defense in 297 00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:18.839 two months for sure. Go ahead, Okay, well, I'm gonna let 298 00:24:18.839 --> 00:24:19.559 you go with that. I just want you to know we can play the 299 00:24:19.680 --> 00:24:22.319 dead and we're still gonna win it. We're still going win. I don't 300 00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:26.200 give nobody We're still gonna win it. Play for the fourth seed. Sit 301 00:24:26.279 --> 00:24:29.359 Kawhi down. We don't need it right now. We did with the best 302 00:24:29.359 --> 00:24:32.640 we can do with divorce. Why we're playing it. We can't just playing 303 00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:36.519 it by the no more because you don't have the four seeds secured yet, 304 00:24:36.799 --> 00:24:40.440 Morris would be my only point. So we'll see how the Clippers handle it. 305 00:24:40.480 --> 00:24:42.839 They're three games up on Dallas. I said, with seven games left, 306 00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:45.720 they need four more wins and they will have the four seed. They 307 00:24:45.720 --> 00:24:49.240 got one tonight, they need I think three more. There's two more games 308 00:24:49.319 --> 00:24:53.000 left coming up. Tomorrow is one of them against the Utah Jazz, a 309 00:24:53.039 --> 00:24:56.640 game at the end of the season against the Houston Rockets, who might not 310 00:24:56.680 --> 00:25:00.960 be playing for anything anymore because Golden State just be them in Houston tonight. 311 00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:03.720 So it looks like Houston is fading and not gonna have a shot at being 312 00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:07.720 in the play in But I appreciate the phone call Morris and the thought there. 313 00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:14.680 It might be exactly that they win tomorrow. They're in real good shape 314 00:25:14.799 --> 00:25:18.240 for holding onto the four spot and let Dallas and Phoenix battle it out with 315 00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:22.319 New Orleans for whoever wants to meet the Clippers here at Crypto in the opening 316 00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:30.279 round of the playoffs. That's who is jocking for position to end up being 317 00:25:30.279 --> 00:25:32.680 the five seed. We'll take a quick time out. We'll come back. 318 00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:41.400 Clippers win one O two to one hundred without Kawhi over the Denver Nuggets and 319 00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:44.960 Nikola Yokich here at Crypto dot com arena. I'm out a Moslin and you're 320 00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:48.680 listening to Clippers sock. You're only in five to seventy LA Sports. LA 321 00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:52.799 Clippers Basketball is on the two one three era continues. You're listening to the 322 00:25:52.960 --> 00:25:59.119 LA Clippers on the LA Clippers Audio Network. Clippers win one O two to 323 00:25:59.119 --> 00:26:04.279 one hundred here at Crypto over Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets, the hottest 324 00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:10.279 team post All Star Break. Welcome back in the Clipper stock. I'm out 325 00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:12.200 of Maslin. Eight sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy is of the 326 00:26:12.240 --> 00:26:18.359 phone number coming up. We got Carl Tart coming on the show. Yeah, 327 00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:22.359 I'm big time like that from the Grand Crew. Check out his IMDb. 328 00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:29.039 He's a Clipper super fan, he's a friend, he's a good dude. 329 00:26:29.400 --> 00:26:33.960 I'm looking forward to that conversation. It's about that time where I should 330 00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:37.319 remind you why this game was so important coming into it. Not just for 331 00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:42.519 the Clippers to get back to playing Clippers basketball, to find who they are, 332 00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:48.759 their personality, their identity, high character building type of victory over Denver 333 00:26:48.799 --> 00:26:52.880 tonight. There's another reason that I've been screaming about for I don't know a 334 00:26:52.880 --> 00:27:00.799 couple of weeks. You beat Denver to make sure they're not the number one 335 00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:03.759 seed in the West. To make sure if you are lucky enough to advance 336 00:27:03.920 --> 00:27:07.680 out of the first round, you don't have to see him in the second 337 00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:11.160 round. Push him back as far as possible, make them take on okay 338 00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:15.559 See or Minnesota in that second round, then deal with them in the Western 339 00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:22.880 Conference finals if you're lucky enough to get there. I don't want to look 340 00:27:22.920 --> 00:27:26.319 too far ahead, but that is one of the repercussions coming out of this 341 00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:32.400 ballgame. Denver just dropped a half game behind the Minnesota Timberwolves. Like that, 342 00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:34.920 all right back to your phone calls eight sixty six, ninety seven, 343 00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:40.880 two five seventy John and Santa Clarita John, what's up after this huge Clippers 344 00:27:40.960 --> 00:27:45.039 victory? Feeling good, Adam, thank you for having me on. I 345 00:27:45.079 --> 00:27:49.480 think there's a few Clippers fans out there on the internets that can take a 346 00:27:49.519 --> 00:27:53.960 pen and paper and maybe write an apology letter to a few people. Tylu 347 00:27:55.680 --> 00:27:59.559 was just incredible tonight. I was a little incredulous when I heard PJ. 348 00:27:59.599 --> 00:28:04.359 Tucker starting, but he also deserves many apologies. He was fantastic defensively. 349 00:28:06.000 --> 00:28:10.119 And Paul George, of course, you know he had a slump not too 350 00:28:10.160 --> 00:28:12.400 long ago, but he really turned it on tonight. Well. Love seeing 351 00:28:12.440 --> 00:28:18.640 that if they bring that effort like that with Kawhi, they could be anybody, 352 00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:23.480 doesn't matter who. I'm really popped. I'm excited as you should be 353 00:28:25.079 --> 00:28:29.559 after this one. This is the Clippers team that people fell in love with 354 00:28:29.640 --> 00:28:33.160 over the last five years, that would not give up, that would find 355 00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:38.759 ways to win ball games without one of their superstars. Tonight they did just 356 00:28:38.839 --> 00:28:42.359 that. Appreciate the phone call John Mark and Huntington Beach. You aren't Clipper 357 00:28:42.359 --> 00:28:48.599 Stoff without a Mauzle York, what's up, hey, Adam? Like I 358 00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:53.200 said, this prove's defense can win games, and you know everyone's kind of 359 00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:57.039 worried. I'm not worried if we finished fourth or fifth, because you don't 360 00:28:57.119 --> 00:29:03.079 really have home field advantage, as coach lu said, until the seventh game. 361 00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:04.640 And if you're really a good team, you're going to beat the team 362 00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:07.960 in four games out of six. And so well, let me tell let 363 00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:12.839 me tell you a secret. Mark. That seventh game was pretty critical for 364 00:29:12.839 --> 00:29:17.559 the Clippers against the Dallas Mavericks in twenty twenty one, where neither team won 365 00:29:17.680 --> 00:29:21.680 on their home court until that game seven that the Clippers had at home. 366 00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:29.240 I think you won home court. Well, fly in the face of what 367 00:29:29.319 --> 00:29:33.160 she just said. Well, I know there can be a seventh game, 368 00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:36.319 and that's nice to have it. When they literally got out of the first 369 00:29:36.400 --> 00:29:41.759 round because they had home court, we don't need. I'll tell you what. 370 00:29:41.799 --> 00:29:44.759 I'm so optimusic. We can beat anyone in six. How's that for 371 00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:48.039 a stake. Well, I'm fine with that too. I'd sign up for 372 00:29:48.079 --> 00:29:52.880 that because it's gonna be a war against whoever they face in the first round. 373 00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:56.839 Mark. Yeah, And just so you know, I signed up for 374 00:29:56.920 --> 00:30:00.440 wall tickets for next season. Half season. I'm in the wall. You'll 375 00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:06.079 see me oho on the right in the middle of the wall, right that 376 00:30:06.279 --> 00:30:08.960 center halfway up. I felt like the wall was here. With the defense 377 00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:14.319 the Clippers were playing tonight and the way the crowd was re energized after they 378 00:30:14.400 --> 00:30:18.880 turned things around. Down seventeen in that first quarter, the Clippers got the 379 00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:23.200 victory somehow, some way, one of the most impressive victories of the season, 380 00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:27.559 if not the best victory of the year. This Clippers team showed who 381 00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:33.000 they are once again. It's all still there. I was very encouraged by 382 00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:36.440 the drives to the basket by James Harden. I know he was just six 383 00:30:36.519 --> 00:30:38.960 or twenty three because he went two of thirteen from the outside, but he 384 00:30:40.039 --> 00:30:45.119 showed a little bit more burst against better defenders tonight. That's quite the development 385 00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:52.960 from a guy who's been beat up left shoulder injury, finger injury. He's 386 00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:57.319 been dealing with a lot of discomfort and playing through it and had the biggest 387 00:30:57.359 --> 00:31:03.400 pass of the ball game to a eat to Zoo Boss late in this one, 388 00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:11.160 had to make it was able to Harden to Zoo for that dunk. 389 00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:15.440 As points were at a premium in the fourth quarter, they were running some 390 00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:18.000 of that pick and roll, that high pick and roll I've been calling for. 391 00:31:18.680 --> 00:31:22.440 The Clippers showed a little something tonight with scheme, with lineups, with 392 00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:29.680 rotations. They wanted this one bad and they got it. Let's go to 393 00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:34.799 oh, Sean and Inglewood speaking of the apology tour and guys, you should 394 00:31:34.839 --> 00:31:41.319 be doing that right now. Sean, what's up, my friend? How 395 00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:44.599 are you? I don't know, Sean. I got this email that's about 396 00:31:44.599 --> 00:31:48.960 one thousand words from you earlier talking about the Clippers and when they were down 397 00:31:48.039 --> 00:31:52.240 seventeen. So is the apology going to be as loud as the disrespect was 398 00:31:52.359 --> 00:31:56.359 or what's going to happen here? I want to make a point, okay. 399 00:31:56.599 --> 00:32:02.240 So first of all, Brook you are a sut and you played well 400 00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:07.200 and you brought the energy. And some of the points I brought out is 401 00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:09.640 that maybe if Russ started, he would start with the energy just for a 402 00:32:09.720 --> 00:32:14.440 few minutes. Get the team wrapped up, because they did start very slow, 403 00:32:15.240 --> 00:32:17.279 as I always say they do. But the other thing I want to 404 00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:22.960 make a playoff more interested in execution than energy, Sean, but continue but 405 00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:27.039 for it again, you need that, okay. But the other point I 406 00:32:27.079 --> 00:32:31.000 want to make is that I watched from four months ago with Shaq and Kenny 407 00:32:31.240 --> 00:32:37.640 and Barkley was saying why did they take Subach out when they played Denver before 408 00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:43.079 they lost by a couple of points in the fourth quarter when they had a 409 00:32:43.160 --> 00:32:45.680 lead. This time, they did not take Zoo out. And when they 410 00:32:45.720 --> 00:32:51.599 replaced Zu they replaced him with plumb Lee. So they stayed big the entire 411 00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:55.480 game. They didn't lose the game. Okay, So that's a very important 412 00:32:55.519 --> 00:33:01.079 point that when they stay big against Denver, and even though Tucker was effective, 413 00:33:01.480 --> 00:33:08.079 then you counter when Tuck when uh Joker starts to shoot, then the 414 00:33:08.079 --> 00:33:15.400 big guy moves over to have Tucker's back. Sometimes Lumbly played well. All 415 00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:20.680 their bigs that were out there played well, but you know, when they 416 00:33:20.680 --> 00:33:22.640 want to get you know, when they won the game, Sean, when 417 00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:27.119 Jokis was off the floor, the Clippers went I believe, plus twelve. 418 00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:31.119 That's when they won the game. They took advantage of the non Jokic minutes, 419 00:33:31.200 --> 00:33:36.200 you know what, They went plus fourteen at least from the start of 420 00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:37.599 the second quarters when he was back. In the second quarter, they went 421 00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:42.519 plus ten, and they went plus four in the first few minutes of the 422 00:33:42.519 --> 00:33:49.200 fourth quarter when he was off the floor. Okay, that's true, that's 423 00:33:49.319 --> 00:33:54.160 very true. However, at least they did not take Zubac out the game 424 00:33:54.200 --> 00:34:00.720 and let Joker go crazy and let Aaron Gordon close. Joker went crazy. 425 00:34:00.759 --> 00:34:05.640 I mean he was fourteen to twenty four. He had thirty six points, 426 00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:12.800 seventeen boards, tennissists that they shut They shut down the others. He did 427 00:34:12.920 --> 00:34:15.760 have to work for it, but the other guys going so cold, and 428 00:34:16.159 --> 00:34:22.800 you can't let Jokic be both the score and the playmaker tennissists. You can 429 00:34:22.840 --> 00:34:27.159 live with if he had sixteen assists tonight, you lose that ballgame. That's 430 00:34:27.199 --> 00:34:32.079 the difference, Okay, And you're right about that because they did shut down 431 00:34:32.079 --> 00:34:37.239 the other guy and that was their focus. Of course, it was easier 432 00:34:37.239 --> 00:34:39.760 with Javon Murray not being there too. Yeah, well they didn't have Kauhai, 433 00:34:40.000 --> 00:34:44.880 so I think it evens out. Yeah. I agree with all your 434 00:34:44.880 --> 00:34:46.599 points, so I'm not arguing with you. I agree with Sean. You 435 00:34:46.679 --> 00:34:52.280 sent me a long ass email earlier, and now you're not bringing up any 436 00:34:52.320 --> 00:34:57.320 of that stuff. But it's cool. I get it. You wanted Zubats 437 00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.440 and Daniel Tice to start the game. Yeah I don't. I didn't see 438 00:35:00.480 --> 00:35:07.119 that happening. But let me mention one thing from the Sacramento game. So 439 00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:12.920 they went small and it was a point turnaround and the first the second quarter, 440 00:35:13.480 --> 00:35:21.320 Sean, you only you only call in when there's confirmation bias on your 441 00:35:21.440 --> 00:35:25.199 side when it works out the other way, which it has recently in some 442 00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:30.400 games for the Clippers. You're nowhere to be found. I appreciate the phone 443 00:35:30.400 --> 00:35:35.880 call, but we move. We move, Sean, because you gave up 444 00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:38.239 on him early on in this game. Daniel in Echo Park, Daniel, 445 00:35:38.639 --> 00:35:40.760 you're on Clippers. Stop with that, Allison? What's up? Daniel? 446 00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:45.280 Hey, double A. How's it going? Hey? I just kind of 447 00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:49.239 there's one thing that stood out. Obviously it was the defense, but there 448 00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:52.280 was a point where the ball movement was like quiz it and it made me 449 00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:57.960 think, you know, the ball doesn't really move like that that often, 450 00:35:58.119 --> 00:36:00.880 and obviously we're not gonna win with the Kuhi, but it seems like it 451 00:36:01.000 --> 00:36:07.000 kind of goes into like Iso ball when it gets into his hands. But 452 00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:12.599 that's because he gets the most points per shot attempt in isolation in the NBA, 453 00:36:12.760 --> 00:36:15.800 so probably the is that gonna work in the playoffs? I mean, 454 00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:22.079 yeah, that's actually what happens all the time. My friend in the playoffs 455 00:36:22.119 --> 00:36:25.320 in a seven game series when teams have seen everything. Do you know why 456 00:36:25.400 --> 00:36:30.239 game sevens are so little scoring because there's not much scheming left. It's your 457 00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:36.480 best versus their best. That's exactly what happens in playoff games more iso than 458 00:36:36.559 --> 00:36:42.440 ever. Welcome to the NBA, my friend. Yeah, I love it. 459 00:36:42.519 --> 00:36:45.000 I love this game, and I love tonight's game. It seems like 460 00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:52.159 our ADHD Clippers, let's to turn it on tonight and didn't procrastinate. I 461 00:36:52.199 --> 00:36:55.639 loved it. Hope, hope, hope. We uh don't have to see 462 00:36:55.679 --> 00:37:01.280 these guys until the Western Conference Finals. I'm with you. That would be 463 00:37:01.719 --> 00:37:05.679 the best path for this Clippers team. You don't want to have to take 464 00:37:05.719 --> 00:37:09.199 them on too early. Maybe you take them on when they're a little bit 465 00:37:09.239 --> 00:37:15.199 more worn down, when they've had to go through a couple of tough series 466 00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:20.920 just to get there. Path of least resistance is the goal always. I 467 00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:24.760 believe there have been teams that have won championships based off of that they had 468 00:37:24.760 --> 00:37:29.599 the right layout in front of them. Who you play, matters, styles, 469 00:37:29.639 --> 00:37:34.239 make fights. Coming up, we'll have Carl tart On. We'll celebrate 470 00:37:34.239 --> 00:37:37.000 more of those victory by the Clippers over the Denver Nuggets one to two to 471 00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:44.840 one hundred. I'll email back Sean Inglewood. We'll get to it all tonight. 472 00:37:45.320 --> 00:37:47.480 Speak for the Jake Moarners shaking his head. You know we got some 473 00:37:47.519 --> 00:37:54.079 positivity coming up as well. Clippers win by two over Nikola Jokics without number 474 00:37:54.079 --> 00:37:58.639 two in Kawhi Leonard.

It's 481 00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:36.559 Big Carl Tart. He's at Damnit Carl on Instagram. Nobody knows what his 482 00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:42.400 Twitter burner is. It's probably something like at Big Zoo's the best ever. 483 00:38:42.599 --> 00:38:45.280 I don't know what it could be, but Carl, thanks for joining me 484 00:38:45.360 --> 00:38:50.119 after a Clippers Big victory over the Denver Nuggets tonight, My friend, Adam, 485 00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:52.880 I have been waiting to do this for so long. Thank you for 486 00:38:52.920 --> 00:38:57.800 having me. And what a special night it was. What a special performance 487 00:38:57.800 --> 00:39:00.920 by Viza Zubots knocking down those free throws in the fourth quarter, Your guy, 488 00:39:01.079 --> 00:39:05.239 Carl, Okay, maybe not something you know? You mean listen, 489 00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:07.480 you mean when he missed that layup to give us a solid so we wouldn't 490 00:39:07.480 --> 00:39:12.000 have to worry about all of our hearts jumping out of our chest when Yokis 491 00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:15.400 put up their three. Thank you guy for PJ Tucker. Huh how about 492 00:39:15.440 --> 00:39:17.480 that? Are we really doing this on a night where big Zoo at eight 493 00:39:17.519 --> 00:39:23.039 of his fourteen points in the fourth quarter and is a big man hitting those 494 00:39:23.119 --> 00:39:27.760 clutch free throws with a minute and a half left? Are we really not 495 00:39:27.800 --> 00:39:30.679 going to give a beat to Zubat's credit for this one? In the defense 496 00:39:30.719 --> 00:39:34.800 on Jolgic slate, he got that stupid. I know, Adam, every 497 00:39:34.800 --> 00:39:37.800 time you say do you believe there are people out there who don't believe in 498 00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:39.880 Zubat? I know you always directing that at me. And that's okay. 499 00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:44.480 I told you I like Zubat. I the guy. He's the only guy 500 00:39:44.519 --> 00:39:47.119 you don't have a jersey up on this team. You got John Wall jerseys 501 00:39:47.119 --> 00:39:51.320 and stuff, but you won't have one for Big Zoo. I tried to 502 00:39:51.320 --> 00:39:52.880 get this. I try to get the Zubac gameplay jersey. Can you believe 503 00:39:52.920 --> 00:39:59.079 that? Remember on NBA auctions. NBA auctions they had a Zubat jersey for 504 00:39:59.079 --> 00:40:00.199 two hundred and fort y'all. But I said, I can't wear that. 505 00:40:00.320 --> 00:40:04.599 That dude is two feet taller than me. I'm gonna have to. It's 506 00:40:04.599 --> 00:40:07.440 gonna be a dress on me. I want to wear it to the guy. 507 00:40:07.440 --> 00:40:09.679 I have to tuck it into my khakis. Yeah. Well it could 508 00:40:09.679 --> 00:40:13.599 be a gown. It could be a nightgown because he put Denver to bed 509 00:40:13.639 --> 00:40:19.119 tonight. It's Carl Tart from the Grand Curve joining us here postgame on Clippers 510 00:40:19.159 --> 00:40:22.880 Talk after they win one O two to one hundred over the Denver Nuggets. 511 00:40:22.920 --> 00:40:28.239 Okay, big picture here, Carl, has this team gained back your trust? 512 00:40:28.400 --> 00:40:30.519 Do you have more faith in the Clippers after a victory like this? 513 00:40:30.679 --> 00:40:35.000 They're four and one in their last five ball games since coach Lou called him 514 00:40:35.000 --> 00:40:37.480 out for being soft. They didn't have Kawhi Leonard. It just seems like 515 00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:40.519 maybe they've turned a little bit of a corner here with just six games from 516 00:40:40.559 --> 00:40:45.360 any let me tell you something, what a statement win without Kawhi. I 517 00:40:45.400 --> 00:40:49.960 love that That game was like, that was so exciting, And again I 518 00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:52.039 tell you, my heart was jumping out of my chest for most of the 519 00:40:52.079 --> 00:40:54.360 time. I was in a bar with a bunch of Laker fans and they 520 00:40:54.480 --> 00:40:58.639 was on my head, but I stood strong. I still ten toes down 521 00:40:58.679 --> 00:41:00.480 for the nation, and That's what I'm always gonna do. And we pulled 522 00:41:00.519 --> 00:41:04.360 it off at the end. What a statement win without Kawhi. There. 523 00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:07.280 Shout out to PG, Shout out to PJ, shout out to Zubats, 524 00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:10.119 shout out to the whole squad. I think we have turned a little bit 525 00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:13.719 of a leaf. That was a good statement when we needed that. And 526 00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:15.920 I think the rest of the season, you know, we're gonna We're gonna 527 00:41:16.000 --> 00:41:19.880 keep it up. We gotta maintain our spot and I'm ready to go into 528 00:41:19.920 --> 00:41:22.119 the playoffs with these guys. I'm ready to you know, I'm you know, 529 00:41:22.159 --> 00:41:28.400 I'm a surgeon general in the PG army. At him, okay, 530 00:41:28.679 --> 00:41:30.480 that's fair, And he had been taking a lot of flak. He didn't 531 00:41:30.480 --> 00:41:34.880 show up against Sacramento. He didn't have his best game. The Clippers got 532 00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:37.519 run in that one, and he only took twelve shots. I know he 533 00:41:37.559 --> 00:41:39.960 didn't play the fourth quarter because he got out of hand. But tonight, 534 00:41:40.400 --> 00:41:45.679 without Kawhi, he got up twenty one shots and hit some clutch, tough 535 00:41:45.920 --> 00:41:51.599 buckets against great defense in the fourth quarter and it just didn't matter. Plus 536 00:41:51.639 --> 00:41:54.320 he was fouled on that transition play and they didn't call it. Just talk 537 00:41:54.360 --> 00:41:58.920 about Paul George stepping up in a big time moment here, it looked like 538 00:41:58.960 --> 00:42:01.960 twenty twenty one Paul George when they were missing Kawhi Leonard the last few games 539 00:42:01.960 --> 00:42:07.199 of that of the the biggest run the Clippers have ever had in the playoffs 540 00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:09.159 all the way to the Western Conference Finals. That's what we needed them to 541 00:42:09.159 --> 00:42:12.280 do. That's what we gonna need them to do in case Kawhi is out 542 00:42:12.280 --> 00:42:14.719 for more games. We got to be able to trust the guys that we 543 00:42:14.800 --> 00:42:17.840 have, and PG showed us tonight why we can trust them. That was 544 00:42:17.920 --> 00:42:22.360 it. That's what we need. Paul George. He came through. I 545 00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:25.639 thought, man, there were some interesting calls down the stretch of this one 546 00:42:25.679 --> 00:42:29.840 on both sides. Did you see because I'm not watching it on TV. 547 00:42:30.000 --> 00:42:32.320 You know I'm big time here in person luckily tonight for this one here, 548 00:42:32.400 --> 00:42:37.760 Carl, not big time like you, But did you see what went down? 549 00:42:37.079 --> 00:42:42.320 Without dropping anything? I know it's safe harbor hours, but what exactly 550 00:42:43.199 --> 00:42:46.039 was happening there with Mike Malone losing his cool on the sidelines, did you 551 00:42:46.039 --> 00:42:50.360 get any insight on that? I did. I saw that it was completely 552 00:42:50.360 --> 00:42:53.639 overreaction by Mike Mike Malone. I like Mike Malone. It was a complete 553 00:42:53.679 --> 00:42:58.960 overreaction because let's let's we know that you cannot kick your leg out on a 554 00:42:59.000 --> 00:43:01.079 three point I shout out this box for that defense right there, and he, 555 00:43:01.639 --> 00:43:05.400 uh, Mike, Michael Porter Jia kicked his leg out, which you 556 00:43:05.440 --> 00:43:07.280 cannot do when you shooting. And then on the other side of the court, 557 00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:12.480 that was an absolute foul and we got the call. And Mike Malone 558 00:43:13.159 --> 00:43:16.480 is not used to getting that type of treatment because they never call anything on 559 00:43:16.559 --> 00:43:22.840 that damn team. Uh but uh we we uh we we we won that 560 00:43:22.880 --> 00:43:23.719 one far and squad. That was far and squad, Now that was some 561 00:43:23.840 --> 00:43:27.880 questionable. It was it was a little bit of question questionables in there on 562 00:43:27.960 --> 00:43:30.840 both sides, but I think we definitely took the harder spot. Paul George 563 00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:34.679 should have had about four more free throws at the end of that Uh, 564 00:43:34.760 --> 00:43:37.920 at the end of that game, for sure on a couple of them drives. 565 00:43:37.960 --> 00:43:42.360 But hey, beggars can't be chooses. Okay, we begged for it, 566 00:43:42.440 --> 00:43:45.280 and we got what we wanted. I pleaded all of it. Uh. 567 00:43:45.400 --> 00:43:50.559 Speaking of choosing, if you had a choice, Carl of who you'd 568 00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:54.719 want to see in a first round series against the Clippers, what opponent are 569 00:43:54.760 --> 00:43:58.880 you taking? What gives the Clippers the best chance to win in the first 570 00:43:58.920 --> 00:44:02.119 round? Oh, my gosh, Adam, that's a tough question. But 571 00:44:02.639 --> 00:44:07.920 I'm thinking about it from this standpoint. Those guys down in Dallas, they 572 00:44:07.920 --> 00:44:10.599 don't play good enough defense, and I think our shots will fall, which 573 00:44:10.679 --> 00:44:14.559 it was it was looking it was looking a little shaky than not. I 574 00:44:14.599 --> 00:44:17.000 can't lie, uh they if our shots can fall, I think we can 575 00:44:17.000 --> 00:44:20.920 compete with them offensively because they're gonna have to score more points than us. 576 00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:24.480 And I think Kawhi has the upper hand defensively over that guy. I can't 577 00:44:24.480 --> 00:44:28.239 think of his name, but it starts with an L the same letter that's 578 00:44:28.480 --> 00:44:32.199 that uh you spill a loser with and uh I uh, I would rather 579 00:44:32.239 --> 00:44:35.920 have them than that than than those boys down in the big easy. I 580 00:44:35.960 --> 00:44:37.639 think they're a little bit more spry, they're harder on defense, they're a 581 00:44:37.639 --> 00:44:40.599 little bit bigger than us, and they got some tough guys down in the 582 00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:45.519 middle. I'm not gonna say how I feel about our middle on on the 583 00:44:45.559 --> 00:44:49.480 air. I'll tell you about that in through text messages with the with Charles 584 00:44:49.480 --> 00:44:53.079 and Will, But uh, I think i'd rather I think i'd rather face 585 00:44:53.159 --> 00:44:57.960 Dallas in At first. I know it may sound crazy, but I'm I'm 586 00:44:58.119 --> 00:45:00.599 I'm praying for rain and I think if our shots, if our shots are 587 00:45:00.639 --> 00:45:06.480 hitting, they can't really defend us, and I think our defense should be 588 00:45:06.559 --> 00:45:10.920 able to There's no good option. It does sound crazy to want to play 589 00:45:12.000 --> 00:45:15.559 Luka Doncic or whatever you're trying to call him. There. I wasn't gonna 590 00:45:15.559 --> 00:45:16.840 go there. I got too much respect for the guy. He's tough. 591 00:45:19.159 --> 00:45:22.119 I forgot his name. I forgot his name in the moment. He might 592 00:45:22.199 --> 00:45:27.280 just call him twenty twenty four MVP winner, because that might have been that 593 00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:31.920 should belong that should belong to our cousin Shane. That's fair enough. Look, 594 00:45:32.000 --> 00:45:35.920 there's no good options. It could be them, it could be the 595 00:45:35.920 --> 00:45:39.639 Pelicans, it could be the Phoenix Suns. He is Carl Tart from Grand 596 00:45:39.679 --> 00:45:44.320 Crew. Again. He's not on Twitter unless you can find his burner. 597 00:45:44.360 --> 00:45:46.599 I've been looking forward. You can to night. You can't find a burner 598 00:45:46.639 --> 00:45:51.920 to night. But I tweeted you all the time at him. Are you 599 00:45:52.000 --> 00:45:55.159 the ones saying let the callers talk more? Is that you? I definitely 600 00:45:55.159 --> 00:45:58.280 feel that way. Shout out to my man Morris the Long Beach. I 601 00:45:58.280 --> 00:46:04.119 love looking at his call at damn it Carl d A M M I T. 602 00:46:04.440 --> 00:46:07.480 Carl on Instagram is where you find him as well, if you're not 603 00:46:07.599 --> 00:46:10.480 watching them on the tube. Carl, thanks for doing this tonight on Clippers 604 00:46:10.519 --> 00:46:16.159 Talk. We'll do it again soon. What no, thank you, Adam, 605 00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:23.880 whatever coming up next. We'll get back to your phone calls. Well 606 00:46:23.920 --> 00:46:27.239 did you just take a bow? You think you're on stage right now? 607 00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:30.960 Still? What's going you? And my brother I said, thank you, 608 00:46:31.320 --> 00:46:35.079 There we go, There we go, there we go, Thank you, 609 00:46:35.159 --> 00:46:37.920 Carl, Thank you. Clippers winning one o two to one hundred over the 610 00:46:37.960 --> 00:46:39.239 Denver Nuggets. We'll come back. We'll get back to your phone calls. 611 00:46:39.679 --> 00:46:45.840 You're listening to clipperstock here only five seventy sports. LA Clippers basketball is on 612 00:46:45.159 --> 00:46:50.519 the two one three era continues. You're listening to the LA Clippers on the 613 00:46:50.679 --> 00:46:55.000 LA Clippers Audio Network. Clippers win one O two to one hundred over Nikola 614 00:46:55.079 --> 00:47:01.000 Jokisch and the Denver Nuggets without Kawhi Leonard tonight ballgame with a victory. Cliper 615 00:47:01.039 --> 00:47:06.239 Nation, patch yourself on the back for this one. The game really turned 616 00:47:06.280 --> 00:47:09.360 early in that second quarter where the Clippers play with more energy and you help 617 00:47:09.440 --> 00:47:15.679 provide that extra boost. The crowd got into it. That lob from James 618 00:47:15.679 --> 00:47:21.679 Harden to Russell Westbrook was huge. Just a ton of energy highlights by this 619 00:47:21.760 --> 00:47:29.360 Clippers team, underscored by the crowd underneath them. Just Clipper Nations showing up 620 00:47:29.360 --> 00:47:31.320 in a big spot for this team when they needed it. Let's go to 621 00:47:31.440 --> 00:47:36.800 Paul and Rancho Kook the second straight post game. I like Paul, Paul, 622 00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:39.280 what's up here on Clipper staff and that I'm Auzl Hey, Adam, 623 00:47:39.480 --> 00:47:43.360 Wow, A good game, great game, great game, no doubt about 624 00:47:43.360 --> 00:47:47.960 it. I'm just looking at the stats you cover everything turnovers. Did you 625 00:47:49.000 --> 00:47:52.719 see that they only had six six turnovers? I got seven on my statue. 626 00:47:52.920 --> 00:47:57.639 We mentioned it earlier with Carlo they turned it over half as many times 627 00:47:57.679 --> 00:48:00.480 as the Denver Nuggets. Yeah, no, but I mean that six is 628 00:48:00.480 --> 00:48:04.800 good compared to what are they lately. It's been twelve, thirteen, fourteen, 629 00:48:04.880 --> 00:48:08.119 so I think that's the credit. I mean, anything twelve or lower 630 00:48:08.280 --> 00:48:15.519 is good, So this is outstanding. Yeah. They held what's his name, 631 00:48:15.559 --> 00:48:19.320 Porter, who always burns him from three. I think he was two 632 00:48:19.400 --> 00:48:22.519 for ten, two for ten from three point land and I noticed they weren't. 633 00:48:22.599 --> 00:48:25.119 It didn't seem to be giving open threes, which is really nice. 634 00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:29.360 You've talked already about their defense and stuff, so that's nothing new. But 635 00:48:30.199 --> 00:48:32.480 that guy's really been on fire Porter, and he always seems to come up 636 00:48:32.519 --> 00:48:36.400 with the big shot too, from from three, so it was nice that 637 00:48:36.440 --> 00:48:38.679 they held him in check. Yeah, and they only shot what, like 638 00:48:39.199 --> 00:48:42.960 everybody did you guys say in the beginning they shoot forty percent from three? 639 00:48:42.960 --> 00:48:45.679 They only shot thirty one percent, So that was huge because the Clippers of 640 00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:49.480 their three point defense. It's been kind of week so among other things, 641 00:48:49.519 --> 00:48:51.480 Yeah, it was a great game. I was going to ask you. 642 00:48:51.480 --> 00:48:54.280 You probably answered it while I was on Well, I was on hold with 643 00:48:54.360 --> 00:48:59.960 your buddy there. Who do you think? I like the Clippers matchup against 644 00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:01.960 Dallas. I think that would give them confidence that they beat Dallas. I'm 645 00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:05.800 a little nervous about here. Here's what I'll say, Paul, and I 646 00:49:05.800 --> 00:49:10.400 appreciate the phone call, But Dallas, there's a misconception going on around them 647 00:49:10.440 --> 00:49:15.280 right now. They may be a bottom ten defense on the season, but 648 00:49:15.320 --> 00:49:17.920 they've been a top ten defense since the trade deadline. They made some moves 649 00:49:17.960 --> 00:49:22.079 in the front court. They've been completely different on that end. I'm leading 650 00:49:22.079 --> 00:49:27.400 Pelicans, but I don't like either matchups. Probably the Phoenix Suns over both 651 00:49:27.440 --> 00:49:29.519 of those teams. We'll take a quick time out, we'll come back, 652 00:49:29.760 --> 00:49:32.000 we'll close things out. Clippers win one o two to one hundred over the 653 00:49:32.079 --> 00:49:36.000 Denver Nuggets. Here at Crypto dot Com Arena, I'm out of Osland, 654 00:49:36.039 --> 00:49:40.000 and you're listening to Clippers sock here on the mPire seventy LA Sports loading Clippers 655 00:49:40.280 --> 00:49:45.760 fully loaded with Clippers fans. This is LA Clippers basketball. You're listening to 656 00:49:45.800 --> 00:49:55.119 the LA Clippers on the LA Clippers Audio Network. The Clippers never relinquished the 657 00:49:55.280 --> 00:50:00.159 lead in the second half. It was never tied and the Nuggets never led 658 00:50:00.239 --> 00:50:05.280 at any point in the second half. The Clippers answered runs. What was 659 00:50:05.320 --> 00:50:07.920 their biggest issue over the past couple of months, just laying down when a 660 00:50:07.960 --> 00:50:13.280 teammate a run. When the Clippers went three minutes about in the third quarter 661 00:50:13.400 --> 00:50:16.679 scoreless, I thought they missed a big opportunity there. I thought that might 662 00:50:16.719 --> 00:50:21.880 be their undoing late where they could have extended the lead because Denver wasn't scoring 663 00:50:21.960 --> 00:50:27.400 either. But they held on.
