1 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:16,039 Welcome in. It's another Summer League edition of Clips and dip. I'm your 2 00:00:16,039 --> 00:00:22,399 host, Adam Oslin. No will, no chuck, no clipping. I 3 00:00:22,399 --> 00:00:26,239 don't know. And if you're taking that as like, oh, the Clippers 4 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,239 gonna clip type thing, no, that's not what I meant by that. 5 00:00:28,559 --> 00:00:33,799 The audio clipping last time out and it looks like we are live. I 6 00:00:34,039 --> 00:00:38,240 just checked it, so the chat got it all figured out now technology wise. 7 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,280 Someonere calling me the old guy, the old man trying to figure this 8 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:46,240 thing out as I was Friday night working through it as the Clippers won by 9 00:00:46,359 --> 00:00:53,240 almost an identical score as they did today. In this victory, another one 10 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:59,159 for the Clippers over Brooklyn. Final score eighty seven seventy eight. Friday night 11 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:04,200 against Denver it was eighty eight to seventy eight Clippers. So a lot to 12 00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:08,000 get into here actually, as I did more of a deep dive, I 13 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:15,000 also listened to the Lob the Jam, the podcast with our friends Doctor Schapp 14 00:01:15,519 --> 00:01:19,920 and Lucas Hand our boss, as they also reviewed the last game. I 15 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,799 don't know if anybody else is reacting to this one live ooh. Coach d 16 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,879 Sports Reviews says, what's up, Adam? Someone else called me a boomer 17 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:34,120 because I couldn't figure out the technology here. I'm pretty good with technology. 18 00:01:34,159 --> 00:01:37,640 I just I hadn't done this yet. I hadn't hosted as much. I 19 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,799 think I did once when Kawhi Leonard signed the new contract extension in January. 20 00:01:41,879 --> 00:01:46,680 Maybe, but the Clippers come through once again, a trending tours making the 21 00:01:46,879 --> 00:01:52,719 Summer League playoff. Right now, someone's asking best Clippers Summer League since the 22 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:57,439 Shay year, I'd say so so far. Remember you play four games now 23 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:02,359 in the Summer League, and after that at four teams of the thirty go 24 00:02:02,439 --> 00:02:07,159 into a playoff. There's a semi final on the twenty first, and then 25 00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:12,120 the championship game on the twenty second. So one of the deciding factors, 26 00:02:12,159 --> 00:02:14,879 of course, if there's too many teams that go for and oh, I 27 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:19,680 believe the tiebreaker comes down to point differential. And right now the Clippers have 28 00:02:19,759 --> 00:02:22,879 won a game by ten and a game by nine, so they're plus nineteen 29 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,759 point differential. If you're a sick man like me, or like JJ Reddick 30 00:02:27,759 --> 00:02:30,719 said he was the other day, and you care about these things, and 31 00:02:30,759 --> 00:02:34,120 you're a hooper, and you will watch any Clippers basketball you can get your 32 00:02:34,159 --> 00:02:38,120 hands on. And I actually think there's a lot to kind of sink your 33 00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:44,319 teeth into here with this victory by the Clippers, where it wasn't you know, 34 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,800 an outstanding highlight performance like the thirty six points we saw Friday night against 35 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:53,599 Denver by Jordan Miller. It was a more balanced game from the Clippers with 36 00:02:53,680 --> 00:03:00,120 some bounce back performances and some more encouraging signs. I'd say, oh, 37 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,000 we're all here, And once again, if audio's clipping, I want to 38 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,479 know this time before I have to figure that out later. If the audio 39 00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:12,479 sounds good, just let me know and don't lie about it. I'm trying 40 00:03:12,479 --> 00:03:14,919 to see what I did wrong last time out. I think I just had 41 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,240 too many tabs open. Maybe having the YouTube tab open was sucking up too 42 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,840 much bandwidth here, Kevin Richard says, all good, who called me the 43 00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:27,599 boomer? All good, Adam on my way over there? Then you but 44 00:03:27,759 --> 00:03:30,840 not quite a boomer? Oh okay, okay, he's trending that way to 45 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,159 get a little bit older. Audio is good right now. I think it 46 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:40,960 was just having a YouTube tab open. But now we're actually fully operational when 47 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,840 you and your friends arrive. Okay, So the Clippers come through with the 48 00:03:45,919 --> 00:03:52,879 victory. They're two or zero. Final score was eighty seven to seventy eight 49 00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:54,879 Clippers over the Brooklyn Nets. Our old friend Keon Johnson, I think got 50 00:03:54,919 --> 00:04:00,479 things started in this ballgame. Remember he had the game winner Friday night for 51 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,560 Brooklyn against Indiana. As we were waiting for that Clippers game to tip off. 52 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,520 They went into overtime, I believe, and Brooklyn was down by as 53 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:11,439 many as twenty one in that ballgame. Clippers got up early in this one 54 00:04:11,479 --> 00:04:14,560 thanks to the three ball. I think there were seven of eleven from three 55 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,120 in the first quarter, just ten minute quarters in the Summer League. As 56 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:23,879 they let things mercifully come to an end a little bit earlier, Petros and 57 00:04:23,959 --> 00:04:28,680 Money show or I'll be helping out this week, Daniel said. Was not 58 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:33,079 expecting Jordan Miller to be a foul merchant A grifter, is that what you're 59 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:39,279 calling him. I just think he's aggressive going downhill and maybe we can jump 60 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,199 off from that point. Then, to follow up with Jordan Miller's performance with 61 00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:46,800 the thirty six points on the six to three pointers Friday night, in this 62 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:51,560 one, twenty one points only attempted one three puorter that was interesting to me. 63 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:56,839 He was just four to twelve from the field, so to the point 64 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,560 here of him getting to the free throw line early and often. He went 65 00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:05,480 thirteen of thirteen from the charity stripe. Okay, I didn't see a lot 66 00:05:05,519 --> 00:05:11,879 of CP three ripped through type moves trying to foul bait and get the refs 67 00:05:11,879 --> 00:05:15,439 to call it. He was just in a downhill attack mode really from the 68 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,120 outset. He had a tough lay up early again in the second quarter, 69 00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:24,560 going downhill, he was on the court prone. I don't know three or 70 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:30,279 four different times in this He wasn't always rewarded with the foul, but this 71 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,959 attacking, aggressive mentality is I guess what he's been doing in the G League, 72 00:05:34,959 --> 00:05:40,600 which I shouldn't write off, and maybe I downplayed it not talking about 73 00:05:40,639 --> 00:05:44,560 it enough in the last show on Friday night after their first Summer League game, 74 00:05:44,959 --> 00:05:47,519 just because you know, I've seen Brandon Boston what he was able to 75 00:05:47,519 --> 00:05:51,360 do in the G League, Mister forty six, I've seen so many guys 76 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:56,000 go off there and then it doesn't translate necessarily, but you know, you 77 00:05:56,079 --> 00:06:00,480 got to go case by case basis, and I looked into a little bit 78 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,399 more and I heard this from doctor Schapp on the lob of the Jam of 79 00:06:02,399 --> 00:06:05,759 the Pod as well of what Jordan Miller was doing the last year in the 80 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:11,319 G League for the Clippers, and the numbers are pretty outstanding. He was 81 00:06:11,439 --> 00:06:15,839 eighth in points per game in the G League out of everybody, just twenty 82 00:06:15,879 --> 00:06:17,439 two and a half points per game, thirty minutes per game, twenty three 83 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,279 G League games. Didn't play much in the big leagues for the Clippers, 84 00:06:21,439 --> 00:06:25,800 forty eight percent from the field, just thirty percent from three on four and 85 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,519 a half attempts per game, so he was making about a three and a 86 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,720 half or one point four to threes per game. So what happened Friday night 87 00:06:36,079 --> 00:06:40,839 was it just a hot game? He was feeling it early on from distance. 88 00:06:41,319 --> 00:06:45,360 And that isn't exactly representative of who he is as a player yet to 89 00:06:45,439 --> 00:06:47,600 be determined. You know a lot of these guys, everything is inconclusive. 90 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,319 That's why I think it's so fun to watch the Summer League. You have 91 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:56,680 this mix of guys from Europe playing. We saw Banning from Australia fifty one 92 00:06:56,759 --> 00:07:00,360 for the Clippers played a little bit better in this game, them out a 93 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,160 little bit in the fourth quarter struggled overall. But then you have guys straight 94 00:07:04,199 --> 00:07:09,199 out of college, like we're seeing with Cam Christy more on him in a 95 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,360 little bit. And then you have guys that are a year in or two 96 00:07:13,439 --> 00:07:15,399 years in or three years in. They're in the G League, playing in 97 00:07:15,439 --> 00:07:19,920 Summer League. So it's this term I used recently a Pope Marie, a 98 00:07:20,079 --> 00:07:26,959 mix of different guys coming together and ultimately leads. Ultimately, it leads to, 99 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,680 you know, bad brand of basketball typically, But I feel like the 100 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:36,519 Clippers so far, there's been a trend in the last two games their defense. 101 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,519 As the head coach of the Summer League team, Dante Jones, their 102 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:47,480 defense ramps up late, they put the clamps on, and they are playing 103 00:07:47,519 --> 00:07:50,600 to win, and it looks like they have, I don't know, maybe 104 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,519 an understanding from the head coaching staff and from what the Clippers are trying to 105 00:07:54,639 --> 00:08:00,360 establish with the big squad this year is more of a defensive identity. They 106 00:08:00,399 --> 00:08:03,519 seemed to take a lot of pride in their defense. Yes, we also 107 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:13,000 saw DJ Rodman, Dennis Rodman's son on the squad early on airball to three 108 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,519 pointer late in the fourth quarter when he came in during I guess garbage time 109 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,000 in summer League, which typically takes place during all forty minutes. You could 110 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:26,160 say, but I think these games by the Clippers were actually decently played overall. 111 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,279 They were hot from three early on. They cooled off after that. 112 00:08:30,079 --> 00:08:35,600 But there was some connectivity there, some chemistry being built. But dj Rodman 113 00:08:35,759 --> 00:08:39,600 ended up getting to the foul line, I want to say late for his 114 00:08:39,759 --> 00:08:43,960 first points. He went one of two, got a couple of rebounds. 115 00:08:45,039 --> 00:08:48,440 Rodman, as you would expect, got a couple of boards. He had 116 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,440 the platinum blondze. I don't know if this is because the new EM and 117 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,480 M album or because his dad is Dennis Rodman. I'm gonna lean there, 118 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,279 but the hair coloring you couldn't miss him. Also, I don't know if 119 00:08:58,279 --> 00:09:03,720 this means his as Madonna or Carmen Electra. I don't believe so. But 120 00:09:03,879 --> 00:09:07,080 played at USC with Brodney James last year. Before that was in Washington. 121 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:13,440 He got two minutes and forty seconds of run late in the ball game. 122 00:09:13,519 --> 00:09:16,559 But back to Jordan Miller finishing with those twenty one points. Thirteen of those 123 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,679 points came with the free throw line, five boards, had another really big 124 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,240 offensive rebound late where I think he got fouled and then went back to the 125 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:28,600 free throw line. I'm seeing a really good second bounce from him. Jordan 126 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:35,039 Miller has more athleticism and is, I don't know, showing a little bit 127 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:41,399 more athletic ability that I saw last season. That's a good sign, just 128 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,799 more confidence. Overall, everything is getting downhill in games of the basket. 129 00:09:46,159 --> 00:09:48,840 He saw the three ball fall for him early Friday night and then continue to 130 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:54,879 take threes from the outside of that game he only took one all one from 131 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,720 distance. Said I'm good. I'm gonna go back to my bread and butter, 132 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:05,519 getting after an in transition where Tim Lagler, who was on the call, 133 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,960 which made this game a little bit more special to me, one of 134 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,200 my favorite analysts in the game, the only analyst on ESPN. You could 135 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:18,879 say Everybelle's just hot take artists annoying, but uh, Tim Lagler really highlighted 136 00:10:18,919 --> 00:10:24,879 the fact that his acceleration to deceleration is he's getting closer to the rim for 137 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:30,720 guys than defenders to blow by him as he slows down is special and he's 138 00:10:30,759 --> 00:10:35,679 gonna have to really show something in different areas like that, especially to get 139 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:43,320 an opportunity at this level this season. Coach d Sports review says, Jordan 140 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:48,120 seems to play very tall and athletic. Yeah, he's listed at six five 141 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:52,399 sixty six, but he's so long and lanky he looks taller than that. 142 00:10:52,519 --> 00:10:56,720 He looks six' eight six' nine out there at times. Of course, 143 00:10:56,799 --> 00:11:01,039 level of competition matters. You don't want to uh overly hype up anything 144 00:11:01,159 --> 00:11:07,679 from the Summer League, But as I mentioned Friday night, if you're criticizing 145 00:11:07,759 --> 00:11:09,679 some guys and poor performances in the Summer League, I think it's fair to 146 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,840 go the other way when guys are thriving. And that's what we're seeing right 147 00:11:13,879 --> 00:11:16,960 now. Following up that thirty six point game, a twenty one point performance, 148 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,480 very solid from Jordan. Miller has been one of the best players in 149 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:26,879 Summer League so far. So maybe following up and carrying over what we saw, 150 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:28,720 and you know, I don't know how much you saw of it. 151 00:11:28,759 --> 00:11:31,320 I didn't see a ton, but the way he was playing in the G 152 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:37,679 League seems to be happening right now in the Summer League too. He is 153 00:11:37,799 --> 00:11:41,799 going right back to where he was and maybe all that confidence was built up 154 00:11:41,799 --> 00:11:48,159 from being that good in the G League last season that seasoning that he had. 155 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,440 But I just like you know, in the fourth he had a transition 156 00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:56,200 layup and I think I pulled the clip and put it at follow out of 157 00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:01,200 may on X on Twitter, where you can see just to control the body 158 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:07,279 control after a hard sprint to the basket with the basketball, he's then able 159 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:13,440 to slow down and to not blow the layup or smoke the layup, but 160 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:18,200 actually get himself composed and composer has been big from him so far in the 161 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:24,960 Summer League and get an easy layup to go. It's not nothing. I 162 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:31,120 think that is a big takeaway from what we're seeing right now in Jordan Miller 163 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,799 and what parts of his game can be useful in the NBA right away. 164 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,759 Young guys getting in transition and playing that a mere coffee type of role like 165 00:12:41,799 --> 00:12:46,320 we've seen with the Clippers over the years. You know, that's just something 166 00:12:46,879 --> 00:12:50,600 it's a need for this Clippers team. More athleticism, more pop, more 167 00:12:50,639 --> 00:12:56,159 transition basketball, and Jordan Miller we'll see. But so far in the Summer 168 00:12:56,200 --> 00:13:00,279 League, in the G League, that's been happening for him, and that 169 00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,759 was something people did identify early on last season it looks like he smoothed in 170 00:13:03,799 --> 00:13:09,960 transition. He also had a play as we start to talk about some of 171 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,919 the other guys in this ball game after the Clippers went over the Brooklyn Nets 172 00:13:11,919 --> 00:13:16,279 and several league game number two, here is his clips in Dipomata musseled. 173 00:13:16,039 --> 00:13:22,159 But after Kobe Brown had a nice defensive play where he stood up, went 174 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,559 vertical and got the block at the basket. With about three minutes left in 175 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:30,919 the game, it was Jordan Miller leading the break in transition, lost the 176 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,559 basketball, then picked it back up and had a nice no look feed to 177 00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:39,799 Kobe Brown for the throwdown. And yes on X I put it was Jordan 178 00:13:39,879 --> 00:13:43,879 to Kobe for the dunk. You have to how can you resist love seeing 179 00:13:43,919 --> 00:13:50,840 that both of those young guys that we expected with their ages being twenty four 180 00:13:50,519 --> 00:13:54,720 to really lead this summer League team. It's happened because after I want to 181 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,480 say, he had just thirteen points and maybe it was four thirteen shooting Friday 182 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:03,519 night, Kobe Brown was much better. I told your Friday after he went 183 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,879 oh seven from three, I expect him to make two threes the next game. 184 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,360 Well, let's see two to four from distance, and they both came 185 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:16,720 early on as the Clippers kind of had an nonslaught from distance, but he 186 00:14:16,879 --> 00:14:22,039 had in back to back possessions a couple of threes from Kobe Brown. I 187 00:14:22,039 --> 00:14:24,519 believe they were both on the left wing too. Kind of found his shooting 188 00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:30,919 stroke there. Then he had a quick move on the baseline where he just 189 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:37,080 destroyed his defender who was a little bit undersized, as Kobe Brown is a 190 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:41,799 big player, especially I know his height's not there, he's listed six to 191 00:14:41,879 --> 00:14:48,480 six six seven, but he's got some pounds on him and his defender went 192 00:14:48,559 --> 00:14:52,919 flying behind the stanchion. Initially they called her a fallon his defender. They 193 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,039 reviewed it. Brooklyn won that challenge offensive foul and Kobe Brown off arm was 194 00:14:58,039 --> 00:15:01,639 hooking him a little bit. But you see the power, the strength there, 195 00:15:01,679 --> 00:15:05,919 the physicality. He has an NBA body, there's no denying that, 196 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:11,720 and showed off some of that strength. But he then had some turnovers. 197 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:18,519 But then the third quarter and and one in the third nice play and then 198 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:24,200 that play laid off the pass from Jordan Miller that helped put this game away. 199 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,320 And one more where it was pretty much Kobe going down the right alley 200 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,559 to the basket. For a layup late that really helped put this one away 201 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,200 for the Clippers, as seemed like Brooklyn still had confidence of that big comeback 202 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,559 they had against Indiana in their first Summer League game, and they were nipping 203 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,679 at the Clippers heels and making them have to run through this tape a little 204 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:46,240 bit shout out Sea Webb and Kenny Smith there, so I thought it was 205 00:15:46,279 --> 00:15:52,320 a much better game overall from Kobe Brown, more in control. Didn't take 206 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:56,960 a ton of shots five of seven, thirteen points, but six boards, 207 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,399 some nice defensive plays still four and overs, couple of assists. He had 208 00:16:02,399 --> 00:16:04,320 a nice pass. I forget who that was two. It was kind of 209 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:08,399 no look pass and the player was fouled after. I don't think it was 210 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:14,919 Musa Diabate who finished with just two points. I felt like Musa early on 211 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,639 was playing really good defense. He finished with just sixteen minutes out there, 212 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:22,480 so it didn't get as much run, but has some nice defensive possessions. 213 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,039 Had a one on one showdown with Keon Johnson as the basket initially got him 214 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,200 to miss, and then Keon Johnson got it back with those pogo sticks that 215 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:36,200 he has for his leaping ability and eventually got it in and over Musa Diabate, 216 00:16:36,399 --> 00:16:38,519 but he has some nice defensive players early on, staying in front of 217 00:16:38,559 --> 00:16:44,519 his man, getting his hands up, redirecting shots in the paint. Didn't 218 00:16:44,559 --> 00:16:48,679 get credited with the block, but I felt like his defense was pretty sound 219 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:55,000 on the interior. Again, just sixteen minutes for Musa Diabate, who I 220 00:16:55,039 --> 00:16:59,120 think is one of the more long shots to really get minutes this season. 221 00:16:59,159 --> 00:17:02,799 I'm rooting for the guy. But with Kai Jones who's not playing right now 222 00:17:02,799 --> 00:17:08,160 with an ankle injury, and Mobamba being picked up by the Clippers, it's 223 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,119 just not going to be easy to crack the rotation the front line for these 224 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:17,480 Clippers. Coach d Sports review says, how do I oh? I could 225 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:18,920 put it up? Look at it? I have the technology. I think 226 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,519 the nets weren't letting Jordan shoot in the corner today because of his shooting last 227 00:17:22,559 --> 00:17:25,680 game. They did run him off the line a couple of times, and 228 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:30,319 that's how he has hacked those closeouts. So stute observation there. Let's hear 229 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,680 from Jeremy Mormon, Clippers defense getting me excited for the regular season. Well, 230 00:17:36,319 --> 00:17:40,039 I don't think we'll ever see the five man groupings we've seen in Summer 231 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:44,799 League in the regular season at any point, I don't care how much garbage 232 00:17:44,799 --> 00:17:47,799 time there is. Some of these guys are just not going to be of 233 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,839 the squad to where or not. But there does seem to be an emphasis 234 00:17:51,839 --> 00:17:56,039 on that end right now of closing out games. As Jordan Miller said it 235 00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,440 in his court side interview Friday night, you know we can win this one 236 00:18:00,519 --> 00:18:04,240 by playing defense. So it just seems like that's where the coaching is at 237 00:18:04,319 --> 00:18:08,920 right now. They're trying to establish their DNA on that end. What else 238 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,480 do we got here? Jay, Kobe Brown, Jordan Miller, and Diabata 239 00:18:12,599 --> 00:18:17,799 need more minutes on the main team. Their defense has been incredible. Again, 240 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:22,960 you gotta consider level of competition, but they've been good at this level 241 00:18:23,319 --> 00:18:27,720 so far. More from Jay, Diabata and Brown or so athletic for Biggs. 242 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:33,160 We were running these other teams out the summer league full court D with 243 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,000 Biggs. God. There was a great play where Late Brooklyn's trying to get 244 00:18:37,039 --> 00:18:41,799 back into it. They trapped Jordan Miller in the backcourt, who ended up 245 00:18:41,839 --> 00:18:45,640 finding Dj Rodman to get out of it. I thought it might end up 246 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,480 in a turnover he could have, you know, got a little too sped 247 00:18:48,599 --> 00:18:52,359 up, but there was nice composure there from Jordan Miller and then breaking the 248 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:57,000 press also good to see. All right, let's move on to our next 249 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,279 player to talk about. The jumping off can be this from Mike Dang. 250 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,640 Cam has a beautiful jump shot. We need a game where we run J. 251 00:19:03,759 --> 00:19:07,720 J. Redick plays for him, just to see it. JJ Redick 252 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,720 plays or Paul George like plays with some of those pinned downs he was talking 253 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,920 about after the first season under Doctors. Okay, moving on. I only 254 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,119 had to mention his name once so far. I still have love for Paul 255 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:26,680 George. I completely understand taking the Max and going to Philly. Uh Cam 256 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:33,119 Cam, I am Cam Christy. I have been since the tape came out 257 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:37,519 on him. Granted I didn't watch him at all. I can't remember watching 258 00:19:37,519 --> 00:19:42,279 the Gophers game in college. But he turns nineteen in ten days. They 259 00:19:42,279 --> 00:19:48,640 got one of the youngest guys in the draft, and the shot immediately pops 260 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,599 out and stands out to you. It's just a thing of beauty, it's 261 00:19:52,759 --> 00:20:00,920 art. Tim Legler was taken aback by how beautiful his shot was. I 262 00:20:00,079 --> 00:20:04,160 said immediately it looked like Michael Porter Junior to me. Now I'm thinking, 263 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,359 to be more accurate with it, the comp is somewhere between Michael Porter Junior 264 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:15,440 and Devin Booker. With his shooting stroke for Cam Christie in this game, 265 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,279 he couldn't find any rhythm early on. He took a nice step back midi 266 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:23,039 that was short, then forced another one that was an ill advised tough shot 267 00:20:23,039 --> 00:20:27,160 in the first half, then had an offensive foul he just looked out at 268 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:33,279 the timing was off, the rhythm was off. Then he hit a three 269 00:20:33,319 --> 00:20:37,640 off of a beautiful ray J. Dennis pass where he got by his defender, 270 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:42,519 collapsed, the defense threw it over the top of Cam Christie's defender, 271 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,680 who ended up knocking down a near side corner three. Well on rag J 272 00:20:47,759 --> 00:20:52,519 Dennis a little bit, but that was his first and it ended up being 273 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,000 his only make in this ballgame. No, because he'd hit one more three 274 00:20:56,039 --> 00:21:03,759 Porter that's right in the second half. But the fact that he was stuck 275 00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:08,119 in mud offensively and had no feel for the ballgame and then had the confidence 276 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:12,680 to just raise up and put in that three pointer. I love seeing that 277 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:17,359 from camp Christy. Then he has a deep three to start the third So 278 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,960 his other shot was early in the third quarter. Lagler was praising the shot 279 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,599 afterwards. Who was on the call color commentator was awesome to have him talking 280 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:33,880 Clippers basketball. But that shot after he gave up the basketball and they gave 281 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,519 it right back to him top of the arc, that three pointer kind of 282 00:21:37,559 --> 00:21:40,839 a bailout shot. Flock was running down was able to create for himself a 283 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,799 step back three. I mean, it looks like he can rise and get 284 00:21:44,839 --> 00:21:49,200 his shot above anybody at this level. I don't want to you know, 285 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,960 those guys like Herb Jones and stuff who can block that shot, but it 286 00:21:53,039 --> 00:21:57,119 looks like something that will work at the NBA level. His three point shot 287 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:03,400 now right now, the problem is does he have the other tools that you 288 00:22:03,559 --> 00:22:11,279 need to play with the big boys at the NBA level. As people are 289 00:22:11,279 --> 00:22:15,480 saying, commentating and saying, yeah, ten days away from being nineteen, 290 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,559 he's still eighteen years of age. Is this going to be our Jason Tatum? 291 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:27,720 He's still just nineteen if you know, you know, So what you're 292 00:22:27,759 --> 00:22:32,680 looking for from Cam is to do some of the little things. Then we 293 00:22:32,759 --> 00:22:37,640 know he has to fill out. He will, but he's very thin but 294 00:22:37,799 --> 00:22:44,400 lanky, long, And after that three pointer that he hit to start the 295 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:51,079 third quarter today he locked a dude up he was competing on defense and caused 296 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:56,400 a turnover. And then he had another steal staying with his man, sliding 297 00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:02,599 his feet, getting his long arms out there and gained deflections. That's what 298 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:08,079 you want to see. Just compete on that end and use your body the 299 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:18,599 length that he possesses. Paus he does have an NBA type of body to 300 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,079 him that could end up, you know, being a two or three in 301 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:27,240 this league comfortably. I think once he really grows into it. But we 302 00:23:27,319 --> 00:23:32,519 hear all the time there's a defensive mentality you have to have. Man, 303 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:37,319 I was impressed in this game. I know if he's got that dog in 304 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,920 him. I don't know about all those things. He did get blocked on 305 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,039 one end, it was reviewed it was a clean block, went for a 306 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:48,599 dunk after a nice feed on the interior to him. But if Cam Christy 307 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:55,839 can do those little things and defend, he could play play sooner than later. 308 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,400 Coach d Sports Review says, And I don't know if you're saying or 309 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,039 Cam plays good defense for an eighteen year old. I think Tim said he 310 00:24:03,079 --> 00:24:10,079 had three deflections today, Yeah, he did. He was creating turnovers, 311 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:15,039 he was taking the challenge if you look at the way he digs in defensively, 312 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,480 or at least did on a few possessions. I should say in this 313 00:24:18,599 --> 00:24:22,160 game. Now, there's something Doc Rivers used to always say, and I 314 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:30,480 thought it was very on point. But when what you do best isn't working, 315 00:24:30,559 --> 00:24:33,240 how else can you help the team? Well, he wasn't having a 316 00:24:33,319 --> 00:24:38,799 great game shooting wise, only had six points those two three pointers, two 317 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:45,079 of eight from the floor, but he found other ways to make winning plays. 318 00:24:45,559 --> 00:24:48,799 Something to that. His brother was there watching and Max Christie, I 319 00:24:48,799 --> 00:24:52,200 don't know I've if you go back. I don't know if you've heard me 320 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:56,599 on the F and A podcast or AM five seventy. I've talked about Max 321 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,279 Christi for a while and how much I liked his game and thought he should 322 00:24:59,279 --> 00:25:03,359 have gotten more minutes slash year with the Lakers. Darrenham didn't want to give 323 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:07,839 it to him. So is it too early to say he has that pedigree? 324 00:25:07,839 --> 00:25:10,640 Well, his brother's at least in the league. We don't know how 325 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:15,720 good he'll be yet, but I like what we're seeing from the Christie brothers, 326 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:22,960 not sons of Doug Christie to my knowledge, mister Mueller, one only 327 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,559 issue with Christy, which is in his fault, is he's too young. 328 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:29,359 I don't know if he would get any playing time this season unless it's garbage 329 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,400 time. Not gonna be easy. I still, you know, we're waiting 330 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,960 for some type of consolidation with this Clippers lineup. They have a lot of 331 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:44,839 guards right now. I'm still expecting some type of move here. The roster's 332 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:51,039 not said, it hasn't crystallized yet, so we'll see Mike dang between Harden, 333 00:25:51,079 --> 00:25:56,519 Norm and Miller and minus PG. Maybe we can finally get consistent calls. 334 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,519 If Paul George never got a great whistle, Jordan Miller getting thirteen free 335 00:26:00,519 --> 00:26:06,480 throws in this game a much better whistle. Norm does he get a great 336 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:11,000 whistle? He definitely foul bits and does that rip through move and tries to 337 00:26:11,079 --> 00:26:15,160 get some love. Maybe if he was top three and six Man of the 338 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,680 Year voting, they'd give him a little bit more respect out there, but 339 00:26:17,759 --> 00:26:22,359 somehow he was left off of it. Norman Powell. Last season, Jay 340 00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:25,720 Camp's defense looks better than his offense so far, even though his shooting is 341 00:26:25,759 --> 00:26:27,960 pretty nice. Even when he misses, it looks good. He airballs and 342 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:33,880 I'm like, damn, that's a beautiful stroke, shooting stroke it he looks 343 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,319 good, like it's it's real. I thought he rushed one. I think 344 00:26:37,319 --> 00:26:42,160 it was the end of a shot clock late in the second half. But 345 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:47,440 overall, I'm just not that concerned about it. Again, he started slow, 346 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,440 everything was off and he's still knocked down that three in the near side 347 00:26:51,519 --> 00:27:00,359 corner off a feed from the love of ray J Dennis. Ray J Dennis, 348 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,039 who had a three yearly on himself, knocked down a couple early on. 349 00:27:04,519 --> 00:27:07,599 I believe both of them came in the second quarter. He might have 350 00:27:07,759 --> 00:27:11,759 one in the first quarter two as just an onslought of threes were going down 351 00:27:11,759 --> 00:27:15,119 for the Clippers. I didn't talk about him much last game. He had 352 00:27:15,319 --> 00:27:21,559 what Chuck and Will would say is a meaty box score. He didn't score 353 00:27:21,559 --> 00:27:25,480 a ton, I think single digits, but he had a triple single I 354 00:27:25,559 --> 00:27:30,359 believe had I want to say, eight assists Friday night. Some boards too, 355 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:36,839 ray J Dennis. So this is interesting. Start at Boise State, 356 00:27:37,599 --> 00:27:41,880 then was at Toledo, then last year finished up as a fifth year senior 357 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,960 at Baylor, and while some of his numbers dropped, his scoring numbers he 358 00:27:47,079 --> 00:27:51,799 went from I think nineteen per game his last season in Toledo to thirteen a 359 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,880 game last year for Baylor. Some of the shooting percentages, three point percentage 360 00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:00,359 went down a little bit. He was still all big twelve. He still 361 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:06,079 was good and he has, you know, a real sense and feel for 362 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,799 the game out there. You talk about a guy in control. I know 363 00:28:08,799 --> 00:28:12,559 he had three turnovers to three assists. He was much better than that Friday 364 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:17,680 night, but there were plays where he was reading the game really well out 365 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:21,880 there, and he finished with ten points. Three of eight shooting knocked down. 366 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:23,319 Okay, so all three of his makes were from beyond the arc. 367 00:28:25,279 --> 00:28:30,440 Ray J. Dennis, I don't know. He wasn't somebody that was really 368 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:37,240 on my radar Friday night, but seeing him back up really two solid performances 369 00:28:37,279 --> 00:28:40,319 that say overall where he came back into this game late I think to take 370 00:28:40,359 --> 00:28:42,759 control of it a little bit more, because they just needed a more traditional 371 00:28:42,759 --> 00:28:49,440 floor general, someone to get them into their sets. I've enjoyed watching ray 372 00:28:49,519 --> 00:28:56,400 J Dennis. Who we got here? Rock Faucy Adam wanted to say pause 373 00:28:56,519 --> 00:29:02,880 or no Diddy so bad comment on that. I think I said pause earlier 374 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,720 about something, Mike Dang. I'm calling it now. Cam hits five to 375 00:29:04,799 --> 00:29:08,240 seven threes next game. I mean I called Kobe Brown hitting two threes in 376 00:29:08,279 --> 00:29:12,319 this one. Why not call your shot? Clipper Nation. You're on clips 377 00:29:12,319 --> 00:29:18,599 and dip, which I know some people are freaking out that I'm doing a 378 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:26,200 live tweet of the game, a thread of the play by play or some 379 00:29:26,279 --> 00:29:30,480 of it at least, and it's summer league. I'll take any Clippers basketball 380 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,640 I can get. I love it all. There's another one from rock wonder 381 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,920 if there's any weight to the tighest Jones stuff, as Chris Dunn still seems 382 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,559 to be a target. I should talk about that because I've only paid the 383 00:29:41,559 --> 00:29:44,720 four ninety nine to ask me that question. I realized when I went back 384 00:29:44,759 --> 00:29:51,359 and watched the clipping that was going on the audio issues of the last show 385 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,680 Friday night, and somebody did pay for me to answer that, So I 386 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:59,640 should probably get to it here. I really like Tyas Jones. If there's 387 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,960 a way to Tyas Jones, you get Tyas Jones period. Obviously they'd be 388 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:08,599 working with Michael Winger in DC they'd have to do some type of sign in 389 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:15,240 trade. Michael Winger, former GM of the Clippers, now with the Washington 390 00:30:15,319 --> 00:30:21,799 Wizards, But I don't know what you'd have to give up to get him. 391 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:26,599 That's a team that is in a fool rebuild. But Tias Jones is 392 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:33,519 not only in a consistent bucket, he's kind of Malcolm brogged in with a 393 00:30:33,559 --> 00:30:40,039 little more juice and a younger version. Not the defender maybe, but decent. 394 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,119 You know, two years ago with the Memphis Grizzlies, when Jah was 395 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,759 out and they went something like nineteen and two or twenty and two, Tias 396 00:30:48,839 --> 00:30:53,599 Jones was killing it. You say he was the best backup point guard in 397 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:59,079 the league. He easily made that case. I would love to see him 398 00:30:59,079 --> 00:31:02,240 in a Clippers' uniform. I'm not sure what you'd have to give up because 399 00:31:02,279 --> 00:31:07,960 the Chris duntrades seems to have a snag. Is that what is holding this 400 00:31:07,119 --> 00:31:11,119 back that they want to bring in another team and have a three way deal 401 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:15,440 here? I don't know, But if you get Tas Jones, you get 402 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:22,720 them guys. That is an efficient point guard with a really good I believe 403 00:31:22,759 --> 00:31:26,519 assist a turnover ratio from last season. It wasn't seven to one, was 404 00:31:26,559 --> 00:31:30,559 it? Don't tell me it was seven to one. I could get even 405 00:31:30,599 --> 00:31:32,799 more excited. And by the way, I think it was just from one 406 00:31:32,839 --> 00:31:37,240 person that had this rumor. Yes, seven point three assists to one turnover 407 00:31:37,359 --> 00:31:41,240 per game last year and he's not even twenty eight, I think yet. 408 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:47,640 He just turned twenty eight in May. Got twelve points per game, shot 409 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:52,519 forty one percent from three to forty nine percent from the field baller. Uh, 410 00:31:52,799 --> 00:31:59,559 that would be nice. But again, I think it was one insider 411 00:31:59,559 --> 00:32:04,880 from who type dot com that said the Clippers have interest, So who knows, 412 00:32:05,559 --> 00:32:08,759 you know, even if that's true, how far along they would have 413 00:32:08,839 --> 00:32:13,880 been? Was it just a phone call? This is something they're really trying 414 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:19,599 to get to work with. Chris Dunn maybe involved from Utah to Rock says 415 00:32:19,839 --> 00:32:23,400 also a fan of Tias even even since the lou Will was expiring. One 416 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:28,640 of them then odd love jam with Harden, Jones, Dunn, Porter Junior. 417 00:32:29,279 --> 00:32:32,680 Even if Miller and Chris Christy are on standby, I still believe Derek 418 00:32:32,759 --> 00:32:37,279 Jones Junior and Claw should be starting shooting guard and small forward. Well, 419 00:32:37,559 --> 00:32:43,599 yeah, Terrence Man, I'd still like to see him as a starter too, 420 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,839 next to James Harden. I don't know, could you really play Tyas 421 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:54,440 Jones next to James Harden. You'd have an undersized backcourt with two guys. 422 00:32:54,559 --> 00:32:58,680 And you know, I want to say Tias Jones's defense has been solid. 423 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,599 I don't know how it looked in Washington, where much more is expected of 424 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:07,400 him offensively, and that's a team just it's a hard reset going on. 425 00:33:07,519 --> 00:33:14,759 There are ways away from being a competitive basketball team. So you know, 426 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:19,799 I would like to see Terrence Man as a guide next to James Harden in 427 00:33:19,839 --> 00:33:22,960 the backcourt, with then Derek Jones Junior, the three Kawhi at the four 428 00:33:23,519 --> 00:33:29,839 zu Bots at the five. That's a really tough, defensive minded starting five. 429 00:33:30,319 --> 00:33:32,039 Of course, you can say outside of James Harden, but I think 430 00:33:32,039 --> 00:33:36,200 you got four guys there that are more than enough to make up for his 431 00:33:36,319 --> 00:33:42,519 defensive lapses at times. Jay says, haha, Wizards have broad did Antias 432 00:33:42,559 --> 00:33:45,960 shownes now? Yeah, maybe Malcolm Brodden will get revisited at some point, 433 00:33:46,319 --> 00:33:52,799 like the trade that never was Chuck and I did an entire live of maybe 434 00:33:52,839 --> 00:33:58,279 an hour long for something that never ended up happening last season with involving who 435 00:33:58,359 --> 00:34:01,119 wasn't a mere coffee was in that Marcus Morris, Yeah, I got mixed 436 00:34:02,119 --> 00:34:06,799 because it was a three way. Christaps porzingis going to Boston. I think 437 00:34:06,839 --> 00:34:09,280 that worked out. Coach d Sports Review. They didn't even need him at 438 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:13,440 times in the finals. What are we gonna do with Bones? If we're 439 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:17,239 getting Tyas Jones, it would probably be riding on the wall that Bones Highland 440 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,760 is either involved in that trade or something else. I don't know. I 441 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:24,360 just I'm preparing myself at this point. You know how much I love Bones 442 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:30,280 Highland to be one of the trade pieces that could get moved. I don't 443 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,599 want to see it, but I'm preparing for it. There's just so many 444 00:34:32,639 --> 00:34:37,880 guys right now. Russell Westbrook being talked about being moved. PJ. Tucker, 445 00:34:37,679 --> 00:34:42,000 I would not be shocked at Bones Highland, who has been up and 446 00:34:42,039 --> 00:34:45,920 down. I think the Highs are very interesting and there's something there, and 447 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,599 I wouldn't be shocked if he goes somewhere else and gets consistent minutes, he 448 00:34:49,679 --> 00:34:52,880 can show that he can be at least a backup, consistent guard in this 449 00:34:53,039 --> 00:34:58,320 league. But I don't know if the Clippers see it the same way, 450 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:05,199 or he's in their play ants at least back to the G League. So 451 00:35:06,199 --> 00:35:12,000 another guy who showed a little something in this game, somebody that I've talked 452 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,360 about who I was excited about seeing the Clippers bring onto their G League team 453 00:35:16,039 --> 00:35:22,440 or excuse me, their summer league team might be on the Jillliague. Amri 454 00:35:22,559 --> 00:35:27,880 Bailey, he really struggled Friday night. He's one of those guys and I 455 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:30,159 don't disagree with anything the lob of the Jam of the podcast said about him 456 00:35:30,159 --> 00:35:34,679 with Lucas Hand and Doctor Shappe, Lucas and I were kind of I was 457 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:39,079 jokingly getting into it with him. He's not a UCLA guy. I'm not 458 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:44,440 either, but I filled in a few times for Tim Kat's post game for 459 00:35:44,559 --> 00:35:49,000 UCLA game, so I was somewhat versed in what they had going on over 460 00:35:49,039 --> 00:35:52,760 the last few years. So I watched Amur Bailey before he came out last 461 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:59,159 year. I believe with Charlotte and I just like the potential from him as 462 00:35:59,199 --> 00:36:02,360 a young guy. They would go too often. Even with Haimi hawkez on 463 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:07,960 that UCLA team from two years ago, and he could go and get you 464 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:13,599 a bucket. The problem with Bailey is can he play within the team concept, 465 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,280 because it looks like he gets tunnel vision far too often out there. 466 00:36:16,679 --> 00:36:21,000 In fact, if you watch this game, they went to him at the 467 00:36:21,119 --> 00:36:22,559 end of shot clocks, at the end of periods, at the end of 468 00:36:22,679 --> 00:36:29,400 quarters, and one time he got clamped. Another time he got a tough 469 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:34,599 reverse to end the third quarter to go, but then he had an offensive 470 00:36:34,639 --> 00:36:40,159 foul the second half off arm stuff and a really bad turnover as well. 471 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:46,840 It's just it looks like he only has one mode to him, which is 472 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:52,880 get into my bag, try to create something and get a basket. I 473 00:36:52,039 --> 00:36:55,440 just don't know if he can blend with the squad. He's still young. 474 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,480 We'll see. I wouldn't hate if he was on their G League team, 475 00:36:59,519 --> 00:37:02,159 if that's where things are going right now. I'm not sure on the specifics 476 00:37:02,159 --> 00:37:07,639 of that, but Amari Bailey, he was better in this game overall. 477 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:13,639 He finished with I want to say he had six points all three layups, 478 00:37:13,639 --> 00:37:15,599 no nine points, three or five from the field. Yeah, he knocked 479 00:37:15,599 --> 00:37:22,199 down a three pointer as well. So if you want s talk Lucas hand 480 00:37:22,199 --> 00:37:27,360 about that, since he was hating on him, by all means one more 481 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:34,920 for you. Elijah Harkless. Harkless in this game had two defensive possessions, 482 00:37:35,519 --> 00:37:37,800 and that's apparently what he's been known for in the G League. He was 483 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:45,119 there with the Clippers last year. He played twenty G League games, average 484 00:37:45,159 --> 00:37:49,440 twenty two minutes per game, eleven points, forty six forty seven percent from 485 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:53,000 the floor, really forty three percent from three he shot in the G League, 486 00:37:53,400 --> 00:38:01,000 but average is steel per game. And he clamped and got a turnover 487 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:07,320 in the first half locking up his man was found on a three pointer, 488 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:12,000 hit the free throw, so a four point play for Harkless. Then he 489 00:38:12,079 --> 00:38:15,719 caused that turnover. He had another turnover I believe he caused in the third 490 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:23,239 quarter two and Dalte Jones was really praising him, has been praising his effort 491 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:29,679 on the defensive end. So cool to see that. Just some of the 492 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,559 guys that have been with the Clippers a little bit in Ontario now'll be in 493 00:38:31,599 --> 00:38:35,960 San Diego with the G League team. He played well. I think his 494 00:38:36,039 --> 00:38:38,800 point of attack defense helped set a little bit of a tone. The aggressiveness 495 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:46,000 he played with. Outside of that, not a lot to speak about. 496 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:51,880 In this game. Again, nobody had thirty six, but they were still 497 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,880 led by Jordan Miller, which twenty one. That's a fine way to follow 498 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:59,000 up that performance. I would have liked to see him still take a couple 499 00:38:59,039 --> 00:39:01,800 more threes. You can give yourself a heat check after hitting six of them 500 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:09,039 Friday night. You only took one oho of one, so four to twelve 501 00:39:09,039 --> 00:39:14,840 from the field. But making hustle plays, playing good defense that passed to 502 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,719 Kobe Brown after he almost lost the ball in transition for the dunk, and 503 00:39:19,039 --> 00:39:25,320 just the relentlessness getting to the cup. That's his tool set that he has 504 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:30,800 to go to play defense, get there and transition. Also attack in the 505 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:35,840 half court like we've seen these two games so far, because while he was 506 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:40,199 stopped there a few different times he was fouled a ton. He just put 507 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:45,400 a lot of pressure on the rim, Jordan Miller. So next year league 508 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:51,239 game for the Clippers, now, yes, I'm looking this up in real 509 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,880 time. Next subber league game. Eh. When we said that, mixed 510 00:39:54,960 --> 00:40:00,400 those two up a few different times here. I think they have a game 511 00:40:00,679 --> 00:40:09,079 on Tuesday and Thursday. Yeah, Tuesday against Milwaukee seven pm Pacific time start. 512 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:13,960 It's gonna be on Balley Sports. Good to see. And then Thursday 513 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:15,760 against the Utah Jazz. So again, the format is this. Now you 514 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:22,679 play four games top four teams in Summer League, advance to a playoff with 515 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,719 the semi final and then the final. The twenty first and the twenty second 516 00:40:27,119 --> 00:40:30,559 Clippers right now have a chance to be there. If you're into this Summer 517 00:40:30,679 --> 00:40:35,880 League right now and a Clippers fan keeping a close eye on this, like 518 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,480 I have been, why not why not win while you're developing and progressing. 519 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:46,960 If you don't make the tournament, the playoff round, you're one of the 520 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:52,920 twenty six teams. This is that. Doesn't you still play a fifth game? 521 00:40:52,639 --> 00:40:59,239 So that to look forward to? Also Clippers summer title, says Rock 522 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:04,920 that I'll see one more four year. We'll read from Rock. I don't 523 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,159 know. Man Bones, Russ, Powell, Tuck and maybe Coffee could all 524 00:41:07,199 --> 00:41:12,920 be moved for cheaper contracts as they look for extensions. I think it is 525 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:17,159 a very fluid situation right now, this Clippers roster. I do nothing set 526 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:22,639 in stone at the moment, so nothing would surprise me. If you were 527 00:41:22,639 --> 00:41:29,039 surprised by this, continue to be amazed. I might run a back Tuesday 528 00:41:29,119 --> 00:41:31,719 night, do a live tweet. I follow out of a once again on 529 00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:36,400 X during the Clippers game against the Bucks in Game three of Summer League Action. 530 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,719 Do it again on Thursday. We'll see maybe Chuck and Will will be 531 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:45,440 here as well. I don't think there's any parades for the Summer League. 532 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:49,199 I'd have a parade just for the Into It Dome opening. If you look 533 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,360 at and follow Carlo Jimenez, radio voice of the Clippers, just put together 534 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:59,239 a new Instagram TikTok where he gives you that behind the scenes look of Into 535 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:06,159 It Dome. To check that out from Carlo Jimenez. All right, before 536 00:42:06,159 --> 00:42:07,719 we get out of here, I do want to thank everybody that was hanging 537 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:14,960 out here in the chat for the live It's been fun doing these. Maybe 538 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:20,280 it's boredom. I'm just feening for Clippers basketball and I will take anything that 539 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:23,760 we can get. But there's there's a real chance I think, especially Kobe 540 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:30,719 Brown and Jordan Miller could be contributors with the Big ball club this season. 541 00:42:30,519 --> 00:42:36,239 So the way Jordan Miller's playing, yeah he is. I'm not gonna say 542 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,000 an unfortunate phrase. That is a real phrase that's used in finance all the 543 00:42:40,079 --> 00:42:44,599 time. If you know what you can say it in the comment area afterwards 544 00:42:44,639 --> 00:42:49,360 that I sometimes use too. He's on the come up. On the come 545 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:54,719 up, that's what it seems like right now with Jordan Miller. So Tuesday 546 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,679 night, I think I'll be back here. I'm having fun with this. 547 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,519 Why not.
