1
00:00:00.680 --> 00:00:04.719
The game is over, Paul George
money in the pain, but the postgame

2
00:00:04.759 --> 00:00:09.279
reaction has just begun. Kawhi Leonard
is so smooth in the mid range.

3
00:00:10.119 --> 00:00:14.240
This is Clippers locker Room, a
recap of today's game and a look ahead

4
00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:18.800
on your hope for LA Clippers basketball. And now your host, You,

5
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:24.760
sir, are a bad man,
Adam Ousley. Clippers make a run late

6
00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:28.600
and they win one twenty four to
one sixteen in Brooklyn over the nets.

7
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:32.119
Welcome to your post game show coming
up. I'll half second half highlights,

8
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:34.719
your post game box scoring. You'll
hear from the head coach, Toron Lou

9
00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:39.359
and the players. But first that
got to Barclays with Noah Eagle all right,

10
00:00:39.359 --> 00:00:42.399
No, we want to see this
team close, and they did in

11
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:45.880
fashion late. Yeah, and honestly
back to back games, Adam, in

12
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:49.479
which they exercise a lot of those
demons that you referenced. Considering the way

13
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:53.479
that Milwaukee game ended to come back
against New York after they gave up their

14
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:56.560
seventeen point lead and find a way
to win that was huge, and how

15
00:00:56.600 --> 00:00:59.679
to build on it to go down
by eight with all the momentum and all

16
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:03.320
the gene this building shifting towards Brooklyn, come back with a run of their

17
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:06.359
own of nine nothing, go up
in front, and then close this one

18
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:08.319
out deep with a fifteen to three
extended a run of the final three and

19
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:11.920
a half minutes. That's progress,
that's growth, especially considering it's the end

20
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.799
of a six game trip. These
guys are tired. They've been through the

21
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:19.519
Ringer, they've been through different time
zones. That is a difficult win to

22
00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:23.319
get, even with no Kevin Durant
and no Ben Simmons and no Seth Curry.

23
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.079
I get it. But Cam Thomas
had himself a night the nets.

24
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:30.040
Overall, we're shooting the lights out
from three. They had a lot of

25
00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:32.640
things going for him, and the
Clippers still found a way. That's important.

26
00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:34.719
Yeah, you talked with Reggie Jackson
post game. He of course drew

27
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:38.799
that big offensive foul hit, a
three point in the fourth quarter, was

28
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:42.480
a plus twenty seven out there.
He and Big Zoo. Yeah, both

29
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:44.840
of those guys, it felt like, were the MVPs of this game.

30
00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:48.599
Zoobots with another big double double nineteen
and twelve. He's had a double double

31
00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:51.920
and three of his last four.
And then Reggie Jackson, it was just

32
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:55.120
a little bit of everything. So
you mentioned both sides of the basketball.

33
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:57.840
First of all is three point shooting. He had been struggling a little bit

34
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:00.319
from three, but to hit that
big one in the fourth quarter, that

35
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:04.719
that embodies him. That's a microcosm
of what he does for this team every

36
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:07.120
time they need him, the big
bailout, big government is there. And

37
00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:10.360
then certainly that charge was huge.
I mean, those are the winning plays

38
00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:14.719
that that's what puts you over the
top. It's what separates a good team

39
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:16.000
from a great team. And if
the Clippers can get that type of play

40
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:20.000
from him and everybody else, you're
gonna be in a very good spot moving

41
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:23.240
forward. You mentioned them being down
eight, it looked like Kawai had a

42
00:02:23.240 --> 00:02:27.039
little takeover moment. There was a
three pointer, a couple of free throws,

43
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:30.960
that calming force. Your superstar looked
to him late, Yeah, big

44
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.599
time, and he had a big
fourth quarter. He struggled for most of

45
00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:36.439
this game. Royce O'Neill, to
his credit, did a pretty good job

46
00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:38.520
on him. But Kawhi when they
needed him the most, the Batman symbol

47
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:43.000
was out and he was ready to
roll with his batmobile and everything in between.

48
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.560
Twenty four points four rebound, six
assists, thirty four minutes of action.

49
00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:49.960
Really took over in the fourth quarter
and controlled it because those assists in

50
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.879
the fourth quarter, that's what stuck
out to me. Ye had that big

51
00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:55.800
one to zoo inside, found Reggie. Jackson found Reggie. Then again at

52
00:02:55.840 --> 00:03:01.240
the end. Those were the facilitating
moves that did it for Kawhi Leonard and

53
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:05.960
the Clippers. Clippers win one twenty
four till one sixteen. They finished the

54
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:09.000
Grammy road trip four and two.
They are coming back to take on the

55
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:15.840
Dallas Mavericks and Kyrie Irving on Wednesday. Weird to say tip time for that

56
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:21.560
one and down to Los Angeles at
seven. We'll have Clippers countdowns starting at

57
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:25.479
six. Noah Eagle, great call, great road trip all around. Enjoy

58
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:29.240
being hopeful a little bit. Say
hi to your pops for me, and

59
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:31.080
we'll talk to you on Wednesday.
Six up, six, down, four

60
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:36.439
and two. Adam, can't wait, let's go. Second half highlights.

61
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:38.919
Clippers come through late, they win
one twenty four to one sixteen over the

62
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:52.439
nets and you're listening to the Los
Angeles Clippers radio. What's good you see

63
00:03:52.479 --> 00:04:02.840
that performance? Stop away up Clippers
one twenty four to one sixteen in Brooklyn

64
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:08.599
over the nets. Welcome in your
post game show. I'm Adam Oslin.

65
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:11.800
Still to come on a five seventy
LA Sports. We'll have Clippers stock for

66
00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:15.120
you eight six six nine eight seven
two five seventy eight six six nine eight

67
00:04:15.279 --> 00:04:19.519
seven two five seventy. You can
also get to me on Twitter at follow

68
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:27.920
Adam A. Clippers had an eleven
point lead late in the second quarter,

69
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:31.680
but it was down to just two
by the time the first half came around.

70
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:35.600
It was fifty five fifty three Clippers. Paul George had thirteen points on

71
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:41.560
the first half. He would duplicate
that in the third quarter alone. Man

72
00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:44.519
leaves at Jackson left wing, chap
step drive middle. Jackson gets all the

73
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:46.160
way to the rim, leaves it
last second outside, it goes to George

74
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:50.560
left wing. T's up the three
and knocks it down PG. Thirteen.

75
00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:56.480
He's got eighteen and he's cooking now. To start the third sixty two fifty

76
00:04:56.480 --> 00:05:00.519
seven ninety seconds into this third quarter, ten fifteen to go on the Leonard

77
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:02.639
shore corner foreside, backing down on
O'Neill. Leonard ripped through to the die

78
00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:08.439
of the line outside George straightaway three. This time bottling PG. Thirteen has

79
00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:12.839
come out firing eight third quarter points
in the first two minutes. He's got

80
00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:15.759
twenty one. The Clippers lead by
six. Outlet goes to George for side,

81
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:18.759
right to left. George unto the
front court on Smith crossover drives.

82
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:23.040
It was right gets the rim up
and under reverse lay up. That was

83
00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:30.199
ridiculous, Paul George with a special
finish eighty three eighty two Clippers. Clippers

84
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:34.040
once again went up eleven just to
have that leader raised in about two minutes.

85
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:38.399
They were actually down in the third
quarter, but after three led by

86
00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:43.279
three at ninety one to eighty eight, but then face some more adversity in

87
00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:47.079
the fourth. They were down eight
after Brooklyn and cam Thomas, who was

88
00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:51.800
unbelievable, went on a run,
but Kawhi Leonard would answer Jackson, leave

89
00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:57.720
it Leonard left wing. Tea's up. The three knocks it down. Kawhi

90
00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:02.480
Leonard puts the Clippers one fourteen,
one, thirteen, two forty to play.

91
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:06.920
Leonard with twenty two loves at Jackson
back to pal left wing with fourteen

92
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:11.639
a shoot. Balanin said it ear
side Leonard whipping inside. Two Bots attacks

93
00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:16.000
the rim and rips it down with
two nineteen for Zoo assists number five for

94
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:19.240
Leonard Jackson, will in bound baseline
ear side, fine platoon cutting to the

95
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:28.160
rim. Oh Mick Batoum bakes it
in in the fell big plays down the

96
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:31.120
stretch, starting with Kawhi hitting some
shots, but then his passing he found

97
00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:35.480
Zoobots for a big throwdown, Reggie
Jackson for a three pointer, and Reggie

98
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:39.399
in the open court do a little
bit cherry picking for an easy throwdown,

99
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:43.600
but then Nicholas Batoum with the cherry
on top for a little and one.

100
00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:48.600
Late Clippers end things on a fifteen
to three run after they were down eight

101
00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:53.720
midway through the fourth quarter, and
they win one twenty four to one sixteen

102
00:06:53.800 --> 00:07:00.560
in Brooklyn over the nets. They
finish the Grammy road trip four and two.

103
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:06.560
Pretty pretty pretty good. Coming up
next, we'll preview Wednesday's game back

104
00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:11.399
home against Dallas and an HS LUCA. They're gonna have to worry about.

105
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:15.720
Most likely Harry Irving will be playing
for the Mavericks in that one. You're

106
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:33.199
listening to the Los Angeles Clippers radio
network. I hope your responsor. Clippers

107
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:38.160
leave Brooklyn with a victory as they
head back to Cali after this six game

108
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:41.920
road trip where they go four and
two, they win one twenty four to

109
00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:46.720
one sixteen over the Nets and come
through late. Welcome back into your post

110
00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:51.560
game show. I'm Adam Oslin.
So Clippers back home for three starting Wednesday

111
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:57.160
against the Dallas Mavericks, and we're
guessing Lucas gonna play in that game,

112
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:01.759
and we believe Kyrie Irving will be
playing in that game for the Mavericks.

113
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:05.560
Tip time is at seven. We'll
have Clippers countdown starting at six. Outside

114
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:09.639
of Los Angeles. We are leaving
you until then, but here on m

115
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:11.639
five seventy, LA Sports, do
not go anywhere. We got Clippers talk

two five seventy or get to me. Have to follow out of aarm twitter

118
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.160
outside of Los Angeles. We'll talk
to you at six on Wednesday when the

119
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:28.759
Clippers are taken on the Mavericks coming
up next here on five seventy's Clippers talking

120
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:46.240
back two. I'm bowling back county
back to Welcome into Clipper stock. Here's

121
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:48.399
a new sheriff in town. You
won't be able to deny it if we're

122
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:50.919
going to go to the NBA Finals. I believe it in my heart.

123
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:56.039
This is the best team in the
history of the franchise. I am all

124
00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:01.120
about the Clipper Nation. This is
Clippers Talk. They're trying to win the

125
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:05.840
whole thing. A postgame look,
it's your La Clippers recapping the game,

126
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.320
the stars and looking ahead to what's
next. To hear episodes you've missed.

Subscribe to Clippers Talk on iHeart Radio
or wherever you podcast. Now your host

128
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:28.000
of Clippers Talk. Here's Adam Oslin. We're crookin, you're brokinkin. I

129
00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:31.679
got a seven point win. Okay, that's abouts far. Stop going.

130
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:37.679
I don't think he says that there
Clippers went by a seven in Brooklyn who

131
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:41.279
tried to go crook from the brook
with it. The Nets tried to steal

132
00:09:41.320 --> 00:09:45.000
one from the Clippers, but the
Clippers win one twenty four to one sixteen

133
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:50.639
and somehow hold on against Cam Thomas, who had forty seven, a career

134
00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:56.000
high, second youngest player ever just
under Lebron James to have back to back

135
00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:03.039
forty point games at the age of
just twenty one. Clippers survive anyways with

136
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:07.279
a fifteen to three run late they
win in Brooklyn, they finish off the

137
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:11.080
six game roadie four and two and
welcome in to Clippers stock long intros.

138
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:13.879
You're here for it. I know
you are. Eight six six nine eighty

139
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:18.120
seven two five seventy eight six six
nine eight seven two five seventy is the

140
00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:22.639
phone number coming up? We'll have
will up Dyke on from Clips and Dip.

141
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:26.759
You're gonna hear from Coach Lou post
game and the players. We got

142
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:31.879
big Zoo audio. A necessary victory
for the Clippers. We knew it wouldn't

143
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:37.200
be easy. Sometimes you ever heard
the ewing theory when you're missing your best

144
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.919
player, And not only were the
Brooklyn Nets missing Kevin Durant, but they

145
00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:46.679
just lost Kyrie Irving yesterday. Who
goes to Dallas Clippers will see him on

146
00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:52.200
Wednesday back in downs had Los Angeles. Sometimes it opens up an opportunity for

147
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:56.960
somebody else, and Cam Thomas has
been taking advantage of these opportunities. Forty

148
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:03.399
seven on fifteen to twenty nine shooting
and seven of eleven is what he went

149
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:07.080
from three. They started off as
a team eight of nine. From the

150
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:11.600
outside, sometimes guys rally around the
fact that oh nobody thinks we can win.

151
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:18.000
We don't have our best players.
But instead of laying down, guys

152
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:20.360
get an opportunity, They get more
minutes out there, and they want to

153
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:24.639
prove what they can do in front
of their head coach. It was that

154
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:28.799
type of game for Brooklyn. Royce
O'Neill was five of seven from the outside.

155
00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:33.720
I mean at one point he and
Cam Thomas combined to go ten of

156
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:41.120
twelve from three absurd off the charts, shooting from the nets. Who had

157
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:46.559
the Clippers in their sights with six
minutes left. As we thought once again

158
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:52.039
the Clippers were unraveling in the fourth
quarter because multiple times in this game they

159
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:56.919
had an eleven point lead in the
second quarter. Let's start there to end

160
00:11:56.919 --> 00:12:01.360
the half. What do we talk
about all the time? Ending halves strong.

161
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:07.039
We wanted to see it, but
instead the exact opposite happened. The

162
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:13.879
Clippers were up by eleven with i
want to say, just about two minutes

163
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:18.440
left. It was fifty one to
forty with two forty eight left in the

164
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:26.919
second quarter. A minute ten later, after Marcus Morris gets ejected, it's

165
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:30.559
a one point ball game, and
going into the half, the Clippers had

166
00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:35.000
just a two point lead at fifty
five to fifty three. Not exactly closing

167
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:41.559
strong in that one. I wanted
to see it again in the third quarter

168
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:45.080
where they had an eleven point lead. I don't know what it is with

169
00:12:45.120 --> 00:12:48.120
that number eleven. I can't understand
if there was a six in there or

170
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:52.080
something, but eleven is that unlucky? At thirteen, I don't get it.

171
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:58.639
They're up by eleven, and two
minutes later they've lost the lead,

172
00:12:58.240 --> 00:13:03.600
and they end up going into the
fourth just up by three. Things started

173
00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:09.679
well in the fourth quarter thanks to
Norman Powell and Terrence Man. It was

174
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:13.519
normal, I want to say it, with their first four points and Terrence

175
00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:20.519
Man got into transition. But then
Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are back on

176
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:26.360
the court and the Brooklyn Nets go
on another run and they are up.

177
00:13:26.559 --> 00:13:31.799
Not just a run, They're up
by eight. Was six twenty left at

178
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:35.960
one o seven to ninety nine.
No Egill talked about it. If this

179
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:41.440
ain't the danger zone, I don't
know what is. It sure felt like

180
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:48.799
it. What had been happening on
this road trip consistently in four of the

181
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:54.120
five games leading up to this one, where the Clippers were giving away leads

182
00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:58.000
late. Happened against Atlanta, they
pull her off anyways. Happened against Chicago,

183
00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:01.679
they pulled her off anyway. Happen
against Milwaukee, they did not.

184
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:09.279
Happened Saturday against New York, they
pulled it off anyways. They pulled it

185
00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:13.200
off against Brooklyn. But they didn't
make it easy on themselves. Down eight,

186
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:18.840
was six, twenty left. Kawai
had his fingerprints all over the end

187
00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:22.480
of this ball game, though out
of the time out. He sticks one

188
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:26.519
in the mid range, hits a
tough jumper, then finds Reggie Jackson for

189
00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:30.159
a three pointer, then gets to
the free throw line. Kawhi does for

190
00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:35.320
two, and it's a one point
game. Just like that. The Clippers

191
00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:39.600
are right back into it and they
go up by one after a Vizza Zoo

192
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:45.039
Bots gets a hook shot to go
off another assist from Kawhi Leonard, but

193
00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:48.720
cam Thomas could not be stopped.
He'd hit the next couple. Clippers are

194
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:56.039
back down by three and Aviza Zoo
Bots goes to the free throw line makes

195
00:14:56.080 --> 00:15:00.679
one of two. Cam Thomas comes
back a couple more three pointers. It's

196
00:15:00.679 --> 00:15:03.679
one thirteen to one on nine.
Clippers are down four, were three sixteen

197
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:07.080
left. And the other half of
the two one three connection, Paul George

198
00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:13.440
tough fade away shot Clippers back to
within two, and then there was a

199
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:18.080
turnover as a Visa's Zoobots had multiple
steals in the fourth quarter that were clutch

200
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:22.320
and Kawhi Leonard hits a three pointer
to put them up by one. They

201
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:28.320
would never look back. They went
on a fifteen to three run to end

202
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:33.919
the ball game after that big three
from Kauai and they win one twenty four

203
00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:39.159
to one sixteen. They pulled away
from Brooklyn in a fashion we wanted to

204
00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:45.000
see them the last couple of games. It happened. It wasn't easy.

205
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:48.600
No, I don't say a win
is a win, they're not. You

206
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:52.919
gotta close out teams, you gotta
play better against lesser competition, you gotta

207
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:54.799
dominate at times if you're going to
be an elite team in this league,

208
00:15:56.159 --> 00:16:00.960
and the Clippers haven't beat a lot
of elite teams. This was just,

209
00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:04.159
I believe, their tenth game.
They got a win against a team that

210
00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:10.039
was over five hundred and let's be
honest, they were missing three best players,

211
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:15.919
maybe not Cam Thomas, they just
didn't know it yet, but they

212
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:22.919
were at least missing Kevin Durant and
Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons, and the

213
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:26.919
Clippers still had to dig deep late
to find a way to get a win.

214
00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:32.399
I thought Nicholas Batoum also with that, and one play late in the

215
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:36.039
fourth quarter with about a minute left
gave him a little bit of separation,

216
00:16:36.159 --> 00:16:40.639
got him up by five. Reggie
Jackson hit a huge three pointer. I

217
00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.759
mentioned that pass off of the one
from Kawhi Leonard, but also a long

218
00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:48.200
outlet pass from Kawai to Reggie for
a dunk and Reggie joan offensive foul.

219
00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:52.960
He finished a plus twenty seven.
He and Big Zoo both plus twenty seven's

220
00:16:53.039 --> 00:16:57.559
both great in this ball game.
Clippers had to have it, you take

221
00:16:57.600 --> 00:17:03.680
it. You'd rather they learn from
sloppy play and inconsistent play while you're getting

222
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:07.839
victories instead of losses. When there's
only twenty five games left, of course,

223
00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:12.079
and that's the position they're in.
They're five games above five hundred at

224
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:15.119
thirty one and twenty six, which
twenty five left to go, and they

225
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:22.400
got the second toughest schedule left in
the NBA, so Clippers are in a

226
00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:27.680
position still for a top three seed. That's how Wonky. It's been in

227
00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:33.559
the West all season long. We
told you nobody's really separating themselves. Even

228
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:37.319
the Denver Nuggets slipped up a little
bit. They actually lost a game the

229
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:41.400
other night. Yeah, they have
the number one seed and are up seven

230
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:44.839
and a half games on the Clippers. But look at Memphis, man,

231
00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:48.279
I think they're one in eight and
their last nine now since Ship and Sharp

232
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:53.680
tried to body them the Sacramento Kings. They did end up winning tonight.

233
00:17:53.720 --> 00:17:56.599
I believe in Houston. Yes,
one forty two, one twenty, but

234
00:17:56.599 --> 00:17:59.880
they had lost two in a row
and we're five and five in their last

235
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:03.200
ten. So the Clippers remain a
game back of Sacramento for the three seed

236
00:18:04.240 --> 00:18:08.079
and three games back of Memphis for
the two seed. But they're just one

237
00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:12.759
game up on Phoenix and Devin Booker's
coming back soon and they might make a

238
00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:18.799
move still before Thursday in the trade
deadline. So sense of urgency to say

239
00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:21.880
the least, you gotta have it. And the Dallas Mavericks they're in the

240
00:18:21.880 --> 00:18:26.799
sixth spot, just a game and
a half back of the Clippers. They

241
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:30.440
all feel like critical games at this
point down the stretch of the season,

242
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:32.720
and we haven't even hit the All
Star break yet. Part of that is

243
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:34.880
because the Clippers have played the most
games. I believe still this year to

244
00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:38.960
this point. The schedule will ease
up. They'll have more two days off.

245
00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:42.839
I'll have a couple three days off, I believe in between games huge

246
00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:48.680
for this ball club. But as
was this win, they just had to

247
00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:52.319
have it. It wasn't pretty at
times, but a fifteen three run to

248
00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:56.599
end it to take that, that's
something they can grow from. And maybe

249
00:18:57.039 --> 00:19:00.359
the fact that they had to win
in overtime and come up clutch against New

250
00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:06.680
York played a role in this one
too, and they remember that those little

251
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:11.680
confidence builders. Okay, we've been
here before, the crowds in their favor.

252
00:19:11.119 --> 00:19:14.799
They got a guy going off for
forty, just like Jalen Brunson did

253
00:19:14.839 --> 00:19:18.200
for the Knicks. This time it
was Cam Thomas. Whether it's the storm

254
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:22.480
and we'll find a way to win. Hopefully that's what this is. Because

255
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:25.680
they still got to be more consistent
out there. What do I tell you

256
00:19:25.720 --> 00:19:30.759
all the time, They've been consistently
and consistent all season long. Coming up

257
00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:32.799
on the show, as I mentioned, you're gonna hear from Coach Low.

258
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:34.759
We'll have all him up, keon
from clips and dip. Let's hit some

259
00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:38.400
phone calls though, eight six six
nine eight seven two five seventy Wallace and

260
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:42.400
ply delray, you're starting things off
tonight here on Clippers stop without amass and

261
00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:47.279
what's up Wallace? Oh Adam.
I just love listening to you on hold.

262
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:49.640
By the way, you have such
good stats and numbers. And I

263
00:19:49.880 --> 00:19:53.000
just love my Clippers, and I
love where they're at, you know,

264
00:19:53.079 --> 00:19:56.799
my feeling, and I hate to
talk old school. I remember when the

265
00:19:56.839 --> 00:20:00.680
Clippers were just terrible and they were
playing these top shelves teams that would come

266
00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:04.440
in and the Clippers would be winning, and then you knew they were going

267
00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:08.039
to turn it on. And the
Clippers are that type of team. I

268
00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:14.039
think they're the best talented team in
the NBA right now. And well,

269
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:17.240
so let me ask you this.
On that note, I think I think

270
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:21.279
that's an interesting point because I've asked
before, are they to flip the switch

271
00:20:21.319 --> 00:20:25.000
type of ball club? Now?
I think that's dangerous if they believe they

272
00:20:25.079 --> 00:20:30.319
are. I think if it happens
organically sometimes where you're gonna have a lack

273
00:20:30.359 --> 00:20:33.200
of focus out there. It's the
last game of a six game road trip,

274
00:20:33.519 --> 00:20:36.799
Brooklyn's down all those players. You
don't expect them to come out and

275
00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:38.839
hit eight three pointers on you in
the first quarter and get ambush like that.

276
00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:44.319
But they're down eight midway through the
fourth quarter and they turn it around

277
00:20:44.440 --> 00:20:48.359
and ended up winning comfortably. You
could say, do you believe they're flip

278
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:52.240
the switch team? Oh, they
absolutely are. It's just that they're that

279
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:56.160
good. When you saw Jordan Bird
the Pistons come in, you just knew.

280
00:20:56.319 --> 00:21:00.799
Even the old Lakers, you just
knew, okay, it's on.

281
00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:03.960
You could you could field in their
bench. You just knew it. And

282
00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:06.400
the Clippers are that good. Let
me tell you the difference, though a

283
00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:10.440
lot of those teams had to earn
it, though they had championship pedigree already.

284
00:21:10.559 --> 00:21:15.240
The Clippers are still trying to get
there because right now, I think,

285
00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:18.079
look, I've seen those early two
thousand Lakers teams do it all the

286
00:21:18.079 --> 00:21:21.400
time where they had won a championship
and they would be lackluster and games during

287
00:21:21.400 --> 00:21:25.160
the regular season, and they certainly
would flip a switch and come out on

288
00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:27.480
top during a one out of a
two game that they just well, you

289
00:21:27.480 --> 00:21:32.440
couldn't get their attention with until late
until it really mattered. But you know,

290
00:21:32.519 --> 00:21:34.519
they had the hardware, they had
the Larry O. B I think

291
00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:41.119
the Clippers they can't play like this
for much longer because this can't be their

292
00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:45.559
identity, to be consistently inconsistent quarter
to quarter. I think that's dangerous for

293
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:49.640
this ball club. I absolutely agree. But I'll tell you you know,

294
00:21:51.400 --> 00:21:53.400
when if you play basketball, I
played basketball, and the people are on

295
00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:56.240
the court, they know they're better
than me. You know, Okay,

296
00:21:56.279 --> 00:22:00.200
all right, that's enough. And
I think it's that way with the Clippers.

297
00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:04.240
They know they're better than these other
teams, and it is dangerous.

298
00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:08.160
And here's the problem, though,
team. Look what happened against Milwaukee.

299
00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:12.279
They couldn't find the switch when they
needed to because they went up against a

300
00:22:12.319 --> 00:22:17.799
team that was too talented, and
they let their foot off the gas up

301
00:22:17.799 --> 00:22:21.200
by twenty one and they ended up
losing. That's my concern. You don't

302
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:26.000
want these habits against lesser teams like
Atlanta and Chicago and the Brooklyn Nets,

303
00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:29.480
because then when it happens against a
team like Milwaukee, you get burned.

304
00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:33.240
Milwaukee was painful. Yeah, that
was painful. I'll be there at the

305
00:22:33.559 --> 00:22:37.000
game wins day I'm really looking forward
to seeing Kyrie. Are you looking forward

306
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:40.839
to her? All right, Wallace, I appreciate the phone call. Come

307
00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:44.480
over to section one of elevens.
Come say hi one more before we break

308
00:22:44.519 --> 00:22:47.920
here, Sean and Inglewood. Sean, what's up here on Clipper stock without

309
00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:52.519
in Amslin, Hey do boy?
So I want to just talk about what

310
00:22:52.599 --> 00:22:56.319
you guys are just talking about.
It seemed like in the first half,

311
00:22:56.519 --> 00:23:02.279
the first quarter, they were just
a little bit, you know, black

312
00:23:02.400 --> 00:23:06.039
Luster didn't come out with the energy, you know, And then some of

313
00:23:06.039 --> 00:23:08.960
it though, was just Brooklyn was
making everything. Think about it this way.

314
00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:12.440
Yes, they're NBA players. Yes, if you don't play good defense,

315
00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:17.359
they're gonna hit open shots. But
some of those threes were, of

316
00:23:17.359 --> 00:23:22.160
course wide open. But even someone
as good as Luke Kennard from three led

317
00:23:22.200 --> 00:23:26.319
the league in that category last season, he misses wide open threes he did

318
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:32.559
in this game, Brooklyn wasn't missing
any of them. Luke doesn't have a

319
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:37.240
sea legs yet. But yeah,
they were hitting. But I wanted to

320
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:41.359
talk about in the fourth quarter,
Brooklyn came up, like you said,

321
00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:47.400
they had that run and the Clippers
called time out, and after they came

322
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:52.960
back The first thing that happened was
Kawhi Leonard took the ball, nobody else

323
00:23:53.039 --> 00:23:56.680
touched the ball. You got a
shot. Then the next possession, Paul

324
00:23:56.759 --> 00:24:00.880
George came down, nobody else to
the ball, and he shot at three

325
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:04.400
in miss and just that's not what
happened. The next possession, Reggie Jackson

326
00:24:04.440 --> 00:24:07.759
hit a three. That's not what
happened. No, no, I'm talking

327
00:24:07.799 --> 00:24:14.359
about it was another time out before
that they did that did happen where Leonard

328
00:24:14.400 --> 00:24:18.000
touched the ball and nobody else touched
the ball. And then and then the

329
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:21.799
next possession, George touched the ball, nobody touched the ball, but Zoos

330
00:24:21.799 --> 00:24:26.480
got the rebound. But then after
that they caught themselves and said, hey,

331
00:24:26.559 --> 00:24:30.599
we gotta pass. And then you
saw a bunch of beautiful passes and

332
00:24:30.759 --> 00:24:36.880
movement and they won the game.
So they have to trust their teammates again,

333
00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:40.640
I mean, I mean, yeah, they're superstars, but they still

334
00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:42.839
gotta trust their teammates. Those guys
get paid a lot of money too,

335
00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:45.759
so you got to, you know, you got to believe in them.

336
00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:52.079
Another thing, another thing, I
want fred n Fleet, Like I said

337
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:57.319
before, maybe de'angelo Russell and I
want more bumble. That's what I want.

338
00:24:57.640 --> 00:25:03.880
Its prey, did anything else you
want? Ninety three? Michael Jordan's

339
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:08.119
doing it all right, Sean.
I appreciate the phone call. We'll take

340
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:11.880
a quick time out here. We'll
come back. Clippers win one twenty four

341
00:25:11.920 --> 00:25:17.039
to one sixteen in Brooklyn. Over
the next the Nets. They go on

342
00:25:17.039 --> 00:25:22.839
a fifteen three run to close things
out after they were down by eight.

343
00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:26.640
Was six minutes left, down by
four or three minutes left. They did

344
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:30.279
share the sugar, as Noah Eagle
would say. Some nice passes they got

345
00:25:30.359 --> 00:25:33.400
Zoo involved Nicholas Patuma or At Jackson. It wasn't just Kawai and Paul George.

346
00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:37.920
It was a lot of Kauai and
he initiated some of that. But

347
00:25:38.119 --> 00:25:41.920
good to see him be that level
of playmaker. Two down the stretch,

348
00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:45.319
the offense did look better, making
some strides there and crunch time. You

349
00:25:45.319 --> 00:25:59.240
would hope more Clippers stock next year
on the AMP five seventy sports. Yes

350
00:25:59.319 --> 00:26:11.039
it was Steve doing this show.
Yeah, chuck me out straight six He

351
00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:17.720
j can't keep it home a lot. Clipper's coming back to Los Angeles after

352
00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:22.359
a successful four and two six game
Grammy road trip. They win once twenty

353
00:26:22.440 --> 00:26:26.359
four to one sixteen in Brooklyn over
the nets shout out, Dre won the

354
00:26:26.400 --> 00:26:30.880
Worldwide Impact Award. I think it's
named after him. Now. Last night

355
00:26:32.960 --> 00:26:34.880
at the Grammy's Welcome back into clipper
Stock, I'm out of Oslin to eight

356
00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:38.480
six six ninety eight seven two five
seventy eight six sixty nine eight seven two

357
00:26:38.519 --> 00:26:42.240
five seventies still to come. We'll
hear from Coach Low and William of Dyke

358
00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:45.480
from Clips and Dip will be here. Let's go Steve in La Steve,

359
00:26:45.519 --> 00:26:49.680
what's up your un clippers Stock?
Hey, Adam? Back at it?

360
00:26:51.200 --> 00:26:53.319
Yeah? That is the people call
me Steve or Rex. I called myself

361
00:26:53.400 --> 00:26:59.160
rights five time. It's really Steve. I would so. I have things

362
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:03.880
in common with Chuck Mockler, the
fact that we're both positive. But I'm

363
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:08.119
gonna I'm gonna take the negative approach
today just because I've been feeling a little

364
00:27:08.240 --> 00:27:14.799
little insecure about our team. I
don't feel like you kept mentioning and everyone

365
00:27:14.920 --> 00:27:19.279
is alluding to what is wrong with
Why do we keep falling behind? Why

366
00:27:19.279 --> 00:27:22.279
do we keep giving up? It's
the coach. Do we need an extra

367
00:27:22.359 --> 00:27:26.799
player? I love for you to
tell me what you think is necessary.

368
00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:30.279
Do you think we just needed more
time to mesh because this is every year

369
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:34.480
we've had Kawai pv to go back. The last three years, we've seemed

370
00:27:34.519 --> 00:27:38.279
to lay off a little bit and
not be persistent. I think this is

371
00:27:38.279 --> 00:27:42.839
part of why we gave up Denver
forgetting Doc Rivers. Three one lead is

372
00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:49.279
not blown just because of the coach. Well, it's never just one thing.

373
00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:53.960
But remember with Tylu they came back
down O two and back to back

374
00:27:55.000 --> 00:28:00.599
series, so they're quite a big
difference there. The best as I could

375
00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:04.079
due to point to the fact that
the Clippers let up sometimes when they're up.

376
00:28:06.119 --> 00:28:11.279
Maybe they do think they're the more
talented, superior ball club. Maybe

377
00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:18.680
this team has gotten into a habit
and pattern of finding themselves and being gritty

378
00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:23.039
when they're down. Because they've had
more comebacks down twenty than any other team

379
00:28:23.160 --> 00:28:29.440
the last three seasons. Makes you
not a whoopie kishing. I think he's

380
00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:33.279
closing the door that they only know
how to play with that sense of urgency

381
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:38.319
sometimes when they're down big, it's
just a role reversal. But that has

382
00:28:38.359 --> 00:28:45.200
to stop when you have championship expectations, when you're a favorite you're gonna be

383
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:48.599
up in a lot of games,
and you gotta put teams away, and

384
00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:52.279
third quarters are huge, and the
Clippers have actually been pretty darn good in

385
00:28:52.359 --> 00:28:56.160
third quarters over the last month and
a half. But in this one,

386
00:28:56.400 --> 00:28:59.960
it looked like they were going to
get up by more than eleven again.

387
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:03.119
Instead they relinquished the lead and they
only had a three point lead heading into

388
00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:07.799
the fourth, and then things got
real tough down the stretch. Now it

389
00:29:07.880 --> 00:29:11.119
shows that they could pull out a
ball game where they're down eight was six

390
00:29:11.160 --> 00:29:15.279
minutes left and then the eye of
the storm of everything can go wrong and

391
00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:18.559
has gone wrong, and they figured
it out anyways, and then down four

392
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:23.000
or three minutes left. But I
think there's going to come a point in

393
00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:26.920
the last twenty five games when they're
playing lesser competition, which isn't going to

394
00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:33.920
happen that often because their schedule is
difficult, to say the least. But

395
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:38.359
if they're going to be that championship
ball club, the team that we thought

396
00:29:38.359 --> 00:29:42.359
they'd be coming into this season and
have a top three seed in the West,

397
00:29:42.519 --> 00:29:48.839
they're gonna be times where they stomp
teams out and get guys rest who

398
00:29:48.880 --> 00:29:55.039
desperately need it. With veterans.
Let's go to and Lenny in Englewood.

399
00:29:55.640 --> 00:29:57.200
Lenny, what's up here? On
Clippers song with that them asson. Hey,

400
00:29:57.279 --> 00:30:02.880
what's up Adam? I'm joined a
little bit late, but okay,

401
00:30:02.920 --> 00:30:07.440
So look once again, what's going
on? What's happened with Luke Kennard?

402
00:30:08.559 --> 00:30:11.559
And I mean I ain't saving him, getting ready to trade him or what's

403
00:30:11.640 --> 00:30:15.039
up because I just don't see.
I don't see the look. Man.

404
00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:18.799
Remember, he's this is only I
think his fifth game back coming off that

405
00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:23.960
injury, and he hasn't played a
lot of minutes. It's it's been up

406
00:30:23.960 --> 00:30:27.319
and down play and I think some
of that is just he hasn't that consistent

407
00:30:27.359 --> 00:30:33.880
minutes man all year. That dude
hasn't scored more than twenty points in more

408
00:30:33.920 --> 00:30:37.599
than two games. And I just
don't. I just don't. But they

409
00:30:37.599 --> 00:30:40.759
don't. They don't. I mean, they don't need him for that.

410
00:30:40.960 --> 00:30:42.440
Like, that's not why he's there. He's there to be efficient from three

411
00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:47.440
when he gets his opportunities, He's
there to be it, to be it,

412
00:30:47.440 --> 00:30:49.960
to be it yeah, to the
sniper, to space the floor.

413
00:30:51.039 --> 00:30:55.519
But like I said, he I
guess you know, we can continue to

414
00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:57.839
continue to give him a space,
to a room to get to get better.

415
00:30:57.880 --> 00:31:02.000
But like I said, the pas
aren't there yet. I'm hoping that

416
00:31:02.079 --> 00:31:07.079
the front office is able to do
something because Paul George is getting overwhelmed by

417
00:31:07.160 --> 00:31:10.200
trying to be the point guards.
He's not natural, he's not comfortable at

418
00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:14.200
it. And the reason why Kawai
goals for the ball in the fourth quarter

419
00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:18.359
because he's the only one that has
a championship and he knows what that that

420
00:31:18.440 --> 00:31:22.400
kind of pressure is. Like they
it's a lot to put on these dudes.

421
00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:26.720
Everybody looks at it as being you
know, superstars. It's still pressure,

422
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:30.839
man, it's still pressure. And
they read the papers. They know

423
00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:36.079
what's up to so and the whole
thing about flip the switch, they are

424
00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:37.880
not a flip the Switch team.
And anybody who says that doesn't know nothing

425
00:31:37.920 --> 00:31:41.519
about basketball, because like you said, that has to be earned. The

426
00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:45.799
Golden State can be flip the switch. They've been there. They know what

427
00:31:45.880 --> 00:31:48.720
it takes. The Lakers teams,
they know what they know what it takes.

428
00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:52.640
This is not only there's only one
dude. The only way it is

429
00:31:52.640 --> 00:31:55.200
is if they go on to win
the championship, improve it and then we

430
00:31:55.240 --> 00:31:59.359
can look back and say, oh, they knew it all along, but

431
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:02.200
as of now, I don't think
you could say that, no exactly.

432
00:32:02.240 --> 00:32:07.599
So you know, Clipper Nation needs
needs to needs to share that that that

433
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:13.160
way of thinking and realize that,
you know, we're not there yet.

434
00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:15.359
Let's less, let's less, let's
get expectations there in terms of we're not

435
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:19.559
we're not a complete teammates. So
I hope the front officers can do can

436
00:32:19.640 --> 00:32:22.359
do what they do and pull something
off. Man, because like I said,

437
00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:25.079
I don't see this team making a
deep run. I mean they're there,

438
00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:30.200
they don't hold the lead, and
they don't dominate when they're supposed to.

439
00:32:30.279 --> 00:32:34.559
They don't dominate throughout. They used
to be able to use a good

440
00:32:34.599 --> 00:32:37.880
team, used to put a team
in the third quarter. We used to

441
00:32:37.920 --> 00:32:43.839
have some of that. But it's
harder now. You gotta admit that that's

442
00:32:43.839 --> 00:32:46.480
true, but it's still you gotta
be able to you have this is you

443
00:32:46.559 --> 00:32:50.599
look, man, Maxi money,
MAXI money boys, get do Maxi Money

444
00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:53.119
things. Okay, we got two
Maxi Money dudes, we got the highest

445
00:32:53.119 --> 00:32:57.880
payroll in the end. Be a
right, this, this is we're not

446
00:32:57.920 --> 00:33:00.559
supposed to be here at this point. I understand injuries it there, but

447
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:06.359
they are not there yet, and
a good team on his way to championship

448
00:33:06.759 --> 00:33:09.079
has to put a team down and
keep him down. So, like I

449
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:14.000
said, you know, I'm still
clip clip nation, but this is not

450
00:33:14.079 --> 00:33:16.200
it. And I'm hoping that the
one offs to do anything to do to

451
00:33:16.279 --> 00:33:19.680
go out and get a point guard
and take something that fresh on with George

452
00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:22.640
is too much on him and you
can see it. It's just too much.

453
00:33:22.839 --> 00:33:25.119
He can't do it all. So
anyway, I'll good man, let

454
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:29.400
let's keep up to you know,
let's keep it the good vibes and see

455
00:33:29.400 --> 00:33:30.720
what we can do. All right. Let me appreciate the phone call.

456
00:33:31.079 --> 00:33:36.000
And Paul George did have a bad
turnover with under a minute left with the

457
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:40.480
Clippers up five. That just can't
happen in situations like that. He's had

458
00:33:40.559 --> 00:33:46.400
them Layton ball games where they're blitzing
him, firing, doubling him. And

459
00:33:47.480 --> 00:33:52.079
we'll see, because I agree with
you, they're not there yet. They

460
00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:54.599
won eight of ten, but they're
not there yet. They haven't hit their

461
00:33:54.640 --> 00:34:00.519
stride yet, they haven't peaked or
come close to it, and maybe it's

462
00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:05.480
just more time on the court.
Maybe it's a roster change. We'll find

463
00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:09.039
out by Thursday. Let's go to
Ryan and Burbank. Ryan, what's up

464
00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:14.480
here on Clipper stock without Amassin?
What's up bad? All right? So

465
00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:15.559
a couple of things I want to
get to. And I know this is

466
00:34:15.599 --> 00:34:21.000
Clipper talk, But first off,
if I'm Kevin Durant right now, I'm

467
00:34:21.199 --> 00:34:27.840
loving what I'm seeing from the nets. You're talking about without Curry thal Ben

468
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:31.159
Simmons, without you, and they
lose by eight. It's one game,

469
00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:36.039
but sure, that's one game.
I'm just saying, like, that's I'm

470
00:34:36.079 --> 00:34:39.559
just saying, like Cam Thomas is
again, we're looking at Cam Thomas is

471
00:34:39.719 --> 00:34:44.239
legitimate top three player now on the
net. And if you can put up

472
00:34:44.800 --> 00:34:49.840
thirty at least in the NBA,
that's that's good. You're good. Like

473
00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:53.119
that's if I'm Kevin durand I'm going
there might be something here. Maybe you're

474
00:34:53.159 --> 00:34:57.239
not winning the title this year.
I mean, I saw Tony Delk have

475
00:34:57.280 --> 00:34:59.920
a fifty point game, but you're
right, Cam Thomas is the true.

476
00:35:00.559 --> 00:35:05.000
Yeah, I'm decided to saying,
like, I like what I'm seeking out

477
00:35:05.039 --> 00:35:07.920
of some of these some of these
guys, they have some pieces here without

478
00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:15.239
Dorian Finney Smith even playing tonight without
Spencer Dandy. Yeah, Spencer Danwoody play

479
00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:16.639
tonight. You've got some pieces there. So I'll just say that. First

480
00:35:16.679 --> 00:35:20.599
off, well, they're gonna have
to or else Kevin Durant's gonna ask out.

481
00:35:20.960 --> 00:35:23.400
So their goal is not to go
into a rebuild mode. They're trying

482
00:35:23.400 --> 00:35:28.159
to prove to him that hey,
we're still going to compete. And I

483
00:35:28.199 --> 00:35:30.840
don't I think they. I think
they will compete. I look at this

484
00:35:30.920 --> 00:35:32.639
team like they can win two playoffs. Heres, this team can make the

485
00:35:32.920 --> 00:35:37.480
Eastern Conference finals with Durant like,
I agree? All right, what about

486
00:35:37.480 --> 00:35:43.440
the Clippers though, So let's now
let's everyone's to talk about the Clippers need

487
00:35:43.760 --> 00:35:46.519
for a point guard. And I
think that this is very much true because

488
00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:52.719
you cannot expect Paul George to be
your point guard when it comes to crunch

489
00:35:52.760 --> 00:35:55.599
time. He's never been that type
of player and you can't expect him to

490
00:35:55.719 --> 00:35:59.719
be that play. Well, the
question is Reggie Jackson was out there as

491
00:35:59.760 --> 00:36:04.159
well late that was the true point
guard. Paul George has had the ball

492
00:36:04.199 --> 00:36:08.519
in his hands a lot more.
Is Reggie the guy? No, he's

493
00:36:08.559 --> 00:36:13.599
not, And and and looking I
just want to remind people he was during

494
00:36:13.639 --> 00:36:19.800
the twenties twenty one playoff run.
Reggie Jackson was incredible and he looked good

495
00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:22.199
then. But again, I just
feel like my thing when you watch the

496
00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:27.039
Clippers as its cancer. And I
want to say this too about the Clippers

497
00:36:27.119 --> 00:36:30.440
road trip. Look four and two
road trip, that's very solid in it.

498
00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:36.679
And I think things would be colored
differently if they won that game in

499
00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:42.760
Milwaukee, if they went But here's
my problem, Ryan, the reason they

500
00:36:42.840 --> 00:36:46.960
lost that game in Milwaukee, the
problems they had there they got away with

501
00:36:47.119 --> 00:36:52.360
against some lesser teams on this road
trip, but when they arose against Milwaukee,

502
00:36:52.559 --> 00:36:57.079
they couldn't overcome giving away that lead. Well and and and Adam,

503
00:36:57.159 --> 00:37:00.199
let's be honest, the problems in
Milwaukee. We're a part of the problems

504
00:37:00.239 --> 00:37:05.039
of you. You have turnovers,
you have miss shots. And again I

505
00:37:05.159 --> 00:37:07.400
just look at like, look,
we all know the rumors. There's Van

506
00:37:07.519 --> 00:37:14.199
Vliet, There's Connolly. There's a
couple of these guys out there that are

507
00:37:14.360 --> 00:37:17.280
are Look, I look at Connolly
as a guy that like, yes,

508
00:37:17.519 --> 00:37:21.840
he's not going to put up thirty
points in a game, but he's a

509
00:37:21.960 --> 00:37:25.400
facilitator. He's somebody that gets guys
to their spot and he says, here

510
00:37:25.480 --> 00:37:29.519
you go, you take the ball. I'm gonna get you into your spots

511
00:37:29.519 --> 00:37:34.760
and you hit a jumper. The
guys don't have to be tasked with forming

512
00:37:34.840 --> 00:37:37.519
the offense and rather can just be
like, I'm going to get into my

513
00:37:37.599 --> 00:37:39.920
spot to shoot the ball, or
I can take a dribble or one or

514
00:37:39.960 --> 00:37:45.679
two dribbles and shoot and they're not
walking the ball up. I agree with

515
00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:47.679
you. It's something we've talked about
ad nauseum. This is nothing new here.

516
00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:51.000
Ryan. My point to add to
that, though, would be this,

517
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:59.559
the difference between Conley and Fred Van
Vliet and Kyle Lowry and DeAngelo Russell

518
00:38:00.360 --> 00:38:04.400
is that those guys can also play
off the ball and shoot it from the

519
00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:07.840
outside when it's in their hands,
unlike gen Rondo who's just not a shooter,

520
00:38:08.039 --> 00:38:13.719
Unlike John Wall who's played forty games
the last three seasons and has never

521
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:17.679
been a great outside shooter. That's
I think what they need most a point

522
00:38:17.719 --> 00:38:21.400
guard that can also hit shots.
Because it is going to be in the

523
00:38:21.480 --> 00:38:22.880
hands of Kawai, they're gonna double, it is gonna be in the hands

524
00:38:22.920 --> 00:38:25.639
of Paul George, They're gonna double
and those guys have to play off the

525
00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:30.559
ball too. No, I agree
with you. And look, here's the

526
00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:32.400
other and here's and this is always
the lesser thing, right, we don't

527
00:38:32.440 --> 00:38:36.800
talk about it as much, but
look, zo Zoo played great tonight,

528
00:38:36.880 --> 00:38:39.280
and he's played great the whole season. Five thousand tonight. Yeah, five

529
00:38:39.320 --> 00:38:43.960
out night against a small team,
against the team that wins, that goes

530
00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:46.880
small most of the time, because
Claxton is an undersized center. So you

531
00:38:47.000 --> 00:38:52.360
still have the situation too, where
look if Zoo gets into foul trouble in

532
00:38:52.480 --> 00:38:54.639
a series. But I'm looking I'm
just saying, we're looking at Denver,

533
00:38:54.920 --> 00:39:00.320
We're looking at No. I can't
see a scenario where they don't have a

534
00:39:00.400 --> 00:39:04.239
different backup Big by the time the
playoffs come around, whether it's through a

535
00:39:04.320 --> 00:39:07.199
trade or picking somebody up, and
there are guys that are out there available.

536
00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:10.599
I just can't see them not having
somebody else to back up Big Zoo.

537
00:39:10.639 --> 00:39:15.039
You're right, it has to happen, because again, in a playoff

538
00:39:15.119 --> 00:39:19.960
series, where your guy gets into
two quick fouls in the first quarters,

539
00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:22.800
you're gonna have to have somebody or
a stretch of eight to ten minutes.

540
00:39:22.880 --> 00:39:27.599
But preferably if you don't go completely
small where somebody's going to have to come

541
00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:34.360
in and play solid, whether it's
the West and you're talking about Yokich or

542
00:39:34.440 --> 00:39:40.159
maybe a d or maybe DeAndre Ayton
who they lost zubots against in that series

543
00:39:40.199 --> 00:39:44.079
against the Phoenix Centers in the Western
Conference finals who went down with injury,

544
00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:49.880
or the NBA Finals against Embiide or
Jannis like, there are guys that are

545
00:39:49.960 --> 00:39:52.239
a problem that are going to get
you into foul trouble eventually. So I

546
00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:58.840
appreciate the phone call. Ryan.
Let's take one more here, Javier Lahabra

547
00:39:58.920 --> 00:40:01.840
heights, Javier, what's up?
Fiend? Clipper suck Hey was going on.

548
00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:05.599
I don't thank you for taking my
call again real quick. It was

549
00:40:05.679 --> 00:40:09.320
a positive road trip, honestly,
maybe it would. It could have gone

550
00:40:09.320 --> 00:40:12.880
six and oh, I mean I
game in Milwaukee you had it, and

551
00:40:12.920 --> 00:40:15.440
then the other one was the back
to back game. Do you know what,

552
00:40:15.559 --> 00:40:19.360
though, they could have gone six
and oh they also could have gone

553
00:40:19.400 --> 00:40:22.239
one to five. There's another way
to look at that, hobber. Look

554
00:40:22.280 --> 00:40:25.920
at those games against Atlanta and Chicago
at the end. Look at the game

555
00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:30.119
tonight. They're down eight. No, no, I'm taking positive. I'm

556
00:40:30.119 --> 00:40:34.719
not thinking negatively. I'm just telling
you you gotta be realistic about it too.

557
00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:37.440
There's another ball club out there.
Oh yeah, no no. And

558
00:40:37.559 --> 00:40:40.079
it was a long road trip,
so I mean they should be happy,

559
00:40:40.079 --> 00:40:44.000
and like I said with the four
and two mark, with this road trip

560
00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:47.559
for so you know. But another
thing too, I know callers are been

561
00:40:47.599 --> 00:40:52.000
calling and saying that Clippers can't close
the game. And you know I've been

562
00:40:52.039 --> 00:40:57.760
telling you said last year, Adam. I just don't understand Marcus Morris.

563
00:40:58.519 --> 00:41:01.320
I mean, look what happened today
in the second quarter. You said it

564
00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:06.800
four point play. They were up
by eleven. It was an a one.

565
00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:09.920
He followed them make their faithro plus
a tentacle. That's four points right

566
00:41:09.960 --> 00:41:13.400
there. And it was one of
the quickest ten o runs I've ever seen

567
00:41:13.440 --> 00:41:15.920
in my life. It was a
ten o run in a minute, in

568
00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:22.079
ten seconds exactly. And who's involved, Well, yeah, he lost his

569
00:41:22.119 --> 00:41:24.400
school. It can't happen. He
knows it. I had him. He's

570
00:41:24.440 --> 00:41:29.320
been with how many teams? Clippers
are the only team that he's lafted?

571
00:41:29.400 --> 00:41:32.000
What four years? He's going Phoenix, New York? What is it?

572
00:41:32.159 --> 00:41:36.599
Atlanta? I mean, I mean, I'm just telling you. If they're

573
00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:39.800
gonna trade somebody, I've tell you
say last year they got to find a

574
00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:44.239
big man and trade him for Marcus
Morris. I told you last year about

575
00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:47.079
Bledsoe and what happened. They trade
him. I told you about I Vaka

576
00:41:47.559 --> 00:41:51.639
and what happened. I think we
gotta get they trade him. So please,

577
00:41:51.679 --> 00:41:53.119
Clippers. I don't know if we
said save those phone calls, but

578
00:41:53.320 --> 00:41:59.599
uh, and Marcus Morris, he's
got to go. I mean, that's

579
00:41:59.639 --> 00:42:01.960
it. But thank you at him
now. It's like your opinion, dude.

580
00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:07.400
Eight six six nine eight seven two
five seventy eight six six nine eight

581
00:42:07.480 --> 00:42:13.559
seven two five seventy. Marcus had
a rough one obviously, but he has

582
00:42:13.639 --> 00:42:17.239
looked good coming off the rib injury
against the Lakers, and he's played well

583
00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:24.119
in big games and was not the
issue at all against Milwaukee. He definitely

584
00:42:25.039 --> 00:42:28.920
picked up the slack there in that
third quarter. He's had some really good

585
00:42:28.960 --> 00:42:34.960
moments for this team recently. But
yeah, couldn't happen that that eleven or

586
00:42:35.039 --> 00:42:38.760
that ten o run by the Brooklyn
Nets and then it happening again in the

587
00:42:38.880 --> 00:42:43.039
third quarter when you just thought the
Clippers okay, they're gonna go up by

588
00:42:43.119 --> 00:42:45.679
twenty here and put this ball game
away. But that's what's been happening recently.

589
00:42:46.400 --> 00:42:52.039
Now, it's happened five times on
this road trip, and they ended

590
00:42:52.119 --> 00:42:55.960
up winning four of those games anyways, but the game that they lost it

591
00:42:57.000 --> 00:43:01.239
to was the best team of those. There's something too that they couldn't overcome

592
00:43:01.679 --> 00:43:05.800
those mistakes against a team like Milwaukee, and those are the type of teams

593
00:43:06.079 --> 00:43:09.039
you're gonna end up seeing in the
playoffs. More Clippers talk coming up next,

594
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:12.400
we'll hear from the head coach.
But oh, we have a moment.

595
00:43:12.519 --> 00:43:15.599
Let's pause ten seconds for station identification. Here on a five seventy LA

Clippers win once running four to one sixteen

601
00:43:39.280 --> 00:43:42.920
in Brooklyn over the nets. Look, they went four and two on this

602
00:43:43.079 --> 00:43:51.320
road trip. That is undoubtedly a
success, but this teams championship expectations.

603
00:43:51.719 --> 00:43:53.519
So when we're nitpicking, we're saying, okay, but they're giving up a

604
00:43:53.599 --> 00:43:58.360
lead here again. This has become
a trend, that's why. And when

605
00:43:58.400 --> 00:44:00.079
you lose a game like that to
Milwaukee where you do the same thing in

606
00:44:00.119 --> 00:44:04.079
your margin for airs much slimmer because
of the talent on the other end,

607
00:44:05.239 --> 00:44:09.360
or you gotta point that out.
Good news is Clippers winning while not playing

608
00:44:09.480 --> 00:44:14.880
the best basketball, and I still
think that's yet to come. Were twenty

Cam Thomas has forty seven. But the

613
00:44:43.159 --> 00:44:45.679
Clippers will take the victory and come
back to California with a four and two

from Big Zoo in the head coach.

619
00:45:07.519 --> 00:45:12.239
But first let's get out to will
Updyke of Clips and Dip Fame does the

620
00:45:12.320 --> 00:45:16.360
podcast with myself and Charles Mockler.
Okay, well, so were you having

621
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:21.559
any PTSD in that fourth quarter where
it looked like the Clippers were going to

622
00:45:21.599 --> 00:45:23.960
give this one away after multiple times
being up double digits or did you have

623
00:45:24.079 --> 00:45:29.519
faith that they were going to pull
through and eventually win by seven? I

624
00:45:30.119 --> 00:45:32.440
don't know that I had faith.
It did feel like the same movie that

625
00:45:32.519 --> 00:45:37.199
we've been seeing again and again and
again, just some lapses they're kind of

626
00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:40.679
leading to letting another team back in. But I mean you mentioned of top.

627
00:45:40.760 --> 00:45:45.079
I mean, the shooting was incredible
from the Mets camp. Thomas like

628
00:45:45.360 --> 00:45:51.920
absolutely insane performance. So it's not
just the Clippers kind of coughing one up

629
00:45:52.000 --> 00:45:55.320
in this one. And I think
we saw I thought that we saw some

630
00:45:55.480 --> 00:46:00.360
better execution in that fourth quarter down
the stretch. Now it's not say that

631
00:46:00.400 --> 00:46:04.119
there weren't some still still some kind
of bone headed possessions, you know,

632
00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:08.760
one path, no path taking a
contected sort of jumper possessions that are pretty

633
00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:14.159
empty. And I know that a
lot of people were actually kind of clamoring

634
00:46:14.280 --> 00:46:16.320
for Reggie to be out down the
stretch in this one, but he actually

635
00:46:16.400 --> 00:46:22.880
had a nice little, uh like
three three possessions span where he came up.

636
00:46:22.679 --> 00:46:27.400
He came up with the turnover,
he got the assist to Kauai I

637
00:46:27.519 --> 00:46:32.519
believe in the corner, and then
yeah, he just he was actually able

638
00:46:32.559 --> 00:46:37.760
to get things done on both both
sides of the floor. So you know,

639
00:46:37.039 --> 00:46:39.239
it was good to see there that. Like I said, the execution

640
00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:46.039
overall, I thought that that was
a little enlightening given what we've seen thus

641
00:46:46.119 --> 00:46:51.320
far. Yeah, no, that's
a good point because I think there were

642
00:46:51.920 --> 00:46:55.360
some strides made late in the fourth
quarter with that execution, with them moving

643
00:46:55.400 --> 00:47:00.480
the basketball, creating better looks,
getting easier shots. The long outlet passed

644
00:47:00.719 --> 00:47:05.519
to Reggie Jackson from Kawhi who was
doing a little bit of cherry picking.

645
00:47:05.760 --> 00:47:07.280
You need some of that, and
you need some easy ones from Big Zoo

646
00:47:07.320 --> 00:47:12.039
as well, who had a huge
throwdown off a pass from Kawhi Leonard a

647
00:47:12.119 --> 00:47:15.880
hook shot. Zoo was awesome nineteen
and twelve, but he had two steals

648
00:47:15.920 --> 00:47:20.039
as well. In that fourth quarter, he had a block in the ball

649
00:47:20.119 --> 00:47:23.920
game. This was one of his
better games in a bit now. Yeah,

650
00:47:24.199 --> 00:47:28.920
yeah, absolutely, And and what
game was it that we were talking

651
00:47:28.920 --> 00:47:32.320
about too, where like Zoo can
sometimes be leaned on in some of these

652
00:47:32.360 --> 00:47:37.599
situations where the offense is kind of
flogging, you know, finding ways to

653
00:47:37.639 --> 00:47:42.440
be able to exploit that mismatch and
get him going a little bit offensively,

654
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:45.679
which definitely like heightens his whole game. You know, it's kind of interesting.

655
00:47:45.719 --> 00:47:50.039
I'm sure you talked about this,
but you know, we saw some

656
00:47:50.159 --> 00:47:53.159
of the three guard lineups again,
and I thought in some of those minutes

657
00:47:53.199 --> 00:47:57.239
with Big Zoo, we saw some
of the same kind of frustration that we

658
00:47:57.360 --> 00:48:00.079
know he's had with those lineups.
He just asked the were a lot defensively.

659
00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:05.599
Nick Batoum was out there to help
him, but I think the quickest

660
00:48:05.599 --> 00:48:07.880
way to turn the frown upside down
for the big man, it's just just

661
00:48:08.199 --> 00:48:12.519
just scream feeding him a couple of
shots down low. He's asked to do

662
00:48:12.639 --> 00:48:15.440
a lot, and I think,
like I think that that keeps him,

663
00:48:15.679 --> 00:48:20.239
you know, it keeps him focused, you let him get his he can

664
00:48:20.480 --> 00:48:22.559
he can help cover the cover and
fill in the cracks for everybody else.

665
00:48:23.079 --> 00:48:27.880
No, definitely, you gotta feed
him once in a while, especially because

666
00:48:28.159 --> 00:48:31.440
you look at his advanced stats and
he's great on the block with his back

667
00:48:31.480 --> 00:48:37.280
to the basket. I forget what
his point is per shot in those situations,

668
00:48:37.400 --> 00:48:38.920
but it's at the top of the
league. It's kind of an under

669
00:48:38.960 --> 00:48:44.039
the radar, crazy thing. But
yeah, Viza Zubos turns out he can

670
00:48:44.119 --> 00:48:47.039
get it done when asked to.
Norman Powell also had a quick six points

671
00:48:47.440 --> 00:48:51.639
to start off the fourth quarter.
He was in those small ball lineups.

672
00:48:51.679 --> 00:48:55.519
It was him, It was Luke
and Reggie as the Smalls, and it

673
00:48:55.599 --> 00:49:00.360
worked for the most part in the
first half actually, but not as well

674
00:49:00.440 --> 00:49:04.039
in the second half. But I
thought Norman Powell a really important stint to

675
00:49:04.159 --> 00:49:07.119
start off the fourth quarter where the
Clippers did have that lead after being up

676
00:49:07.159 --> 00:49:12.440
by three heading into it. And
he's just been so good and so efficient

677
00:49:12.519 --> 00:49:15.280
lately, and he's playing with so
much confidence. Of course, the throwdown

678
00:49:15.320 --> 00:49:20.840
he had on Julius Randall, that
doesn't hurt your confidence at all. No,

679
00:49:21.280 --> 00:49:22.920
No, not at all. And
I mean Norm struggled a little bit

680
00:49:23.000 --> 00:49:27.719
from the outside for him just one
of four, but the way, yeah,

681
00:49:28.039 --> 00:49:30.599
like what he does is just so
invaluable. I mean, you know,

682
00:49:31.000 --> 00:49:35.880
still a few days until the trade
deadline, but I would be very

683
00:49:36.000 --> 00:49:39.480
surprised if if Norm wasn't about as
safe as you can be outside of the

684
00:49:39.559 --> 00:49:42.800
two, one, three. So
let's talk about it a little bit.

685
00:49:42.880 --> 00:49:47.519
Then Kyrie Irving ends up in Dallas. There were rumors that Los Angeles one

686
00:49:47.519 --> 00:49:52.719
of the teams we're gonna pick him
up. Doesn't happen. Who do you

687
00:49:52.840 --> 00:49:54.920
have your sights on? Who do
you think could help this team most,

688
00:49:55.039 --> 00:50:01.440
and what's a realistic trade for the
Clippers that you would before, you know,

689
00:50:01.519 --> 00:50:06.800
the Fred van Bleep move is still
really interesting to may. I think

690
00:50:06.800 --> 00:50:09.719
that he's a good fit for this
team. Defensively, I do think,

691
00:50:09.840 --> 00:50:15.079
you know, there are some there
are some sort of concerns about him just

692
00:50:15.199 --> 00:50:20.199
being a rental and I think that, you know, with this Kyrie deal,

693
00:50:20.280 --> 00:50:22.559
does it drive down the asking price
for someone like Fred van Bleet?

694
00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:29.000
You know? I mean, like
you know what what Dallas gave up.

695
00:50:29.079 --> 00:50:30.920
Don't don't get me wrong, if
they gave up some good pieces that nets

696
00:50:30.960 --> 00:50:35.159
are going to get some value there, but like you know, it wasn't

697
00:50:35.199 --> 00:50:39.119
exactly a king's ransom, right,
and so I don't I don't know if

698
00:50:39.159 --> 00:50:43.599
that changes the market at all.
I'm still like in a little bit of

699
00:50:43.679 --> 00:50:49.440
the place where if you're positive that
you're going to resign him, I mean,

700
00:50:49.880 --> 00:50:53.119
I am still feeling very tentative about
the twenty twenty eight first and I

701
00:50:53.239 --> 00:50:59.199
just think that looking that far ahead, I think that some people, even

702
00:50:59.519 --> 00:51:04.960
like in front offices, are undervaluing
how huge that asset could be. You're

703
00:51:05.000 --> 00:51:08.119
talking about Kway and Paul George at
thirty eight years of age. Who knows

704
00:51:08.159 --> 00:51:12.960
where they're at, you know,
But isn't that the argument on the other

705
00:51:13.039 --> 00:51:15.400
side of it, Why are we
worried about when those guys are that old,

706
00:51:15.480 --> 00:51:20.920
they're trying to win a championship with
them Now it's win now, that's

707
00:51:20.960 --> 00:51:22.280
fair. No, that's weird.
But like I said, it just can't

708
00:51:22.280 --> 00:51:24.039
be for a rental, you know
what I mean, Like, you can't

709
00:51:24.079 --> 00:51:27.719
take a big swing on somebody that
you're not going to resign. I do

710
00:51:27.880 --> 00:51:30.119
think a safer move is going for
someone like Conley, and you have that

711
00:51:30.199 --> 00:51:34.719
we have to figure out the backup
center situation. I mean, I was

712
00:51:34.800 --> 00:51:37.199
hoping to not give up an asset, even in terms of a player or

713
00:51:37.239 --> 00:51:40.199
something, just picking somebody off the
buyout market. But we need to get

714
00:51:40.239 --> 00:51:44.199
somebody in. We need to get
that figured out, because, like time

715
00:51:44.239 --> 00:51:46.840
and time again, it's an issue. You know, we're still, for

716
00:51:47.000 --> 00:51:52.079
whatever reason, seeing Robert Covington stack
up dnps, even with a weird Marcus

717
00:51:52.119 --> 00:51:57.599
Morris objection in this one. So
it's very clear just from a roster perspective,

718
00:51:57.840 --> 00:52:00.639
we just need another center. And
I think it's solidating the guards is

719
00:52:00.679 --> 00:52:05.960
still a great idea, but you
still you need that big body or I

720
00:52:06.400 --> 00:52:08.920
just teams are going to be able
to punish you in the playoffs. Well,

721
00:52:09.000 --> 00:52:13.400
let's do an update on where you
think the Clippers can land and need

722
00:52:13.480 --> 00:52:17.159
to land in the Western Conference standings, because right now they're just a game

723
00:52:17.199 --> 00:52:20.320
back at the Sacrament of Kings,
who, by the way, they're going

724
00:52:20.360 --> 00:52:22.719
to see two more times in the
next twenty five games, so they can

725
00:52:22.840 --> 00:52:28.880
very much determine their own destiny.
And really the Memphis Grizzlies absolutely reeling.

726
00:52:29.159 --> 00:52:31.440
They've lost three in a row.
I think they're one and eight in their

727
00:52:31.519 --> 00:52:36.920
last nine ball games. The two
seed is within range two. Where do

728
00:52:37.000 --> 00:52:44.199
you think this Clippers team could get
to. I still think I still think

729
00:52:44.239 --> 00:52:46.920
by the end of the season we're
probably sitting three. We might be able

730
00:52:46.960 --> 00:52:51.559
to make a move for two,
but it's going to depend on how obviously

731
00:52:51.639 --> 00:52:54.320
we use Kawaii and Paul George down
the stretch. I don't know if coming

732
00:52:54.360 --> 00:52:58.159
out of the All Star Break,
I want to see them at you know,

733
00:52:58.840 --> 00:53:01.760
unless it's like a huge in conference
game that's an actual like measuring stick

734
00:53:01.840 --> 00:53:06.000
of the playoffs. I don't really
want to see them playing, you know,

735
00:53:06.360 --> 00:53:09.599
more than say thirty thirty four,
thirty five minutes, which I think

736
00:53:09.639 --> 00:53:13.800
could alter things a little bit.
But I think you're in that three feed.

737
00:53:14.360 --> 00:53:17.079
Uh, that's a still a very
nice place to be for the Clippers.

738
00:53:17.280 --> 00:53:21.280
I do think you want to avoid
that four or five matchup, mainly

739
00:53:21.400 --> 00:53:24.320
for the second round. I mean, I think the Nuggets have the one

740
00:53:24.400 --> 00:53:28.599
locked up. I would be very
surprised if they've faltered from that. But

741
00:53:28.920 --> 00:53:31.639
I think this road trip, and
I know, like some people might discredit

742
00:53:31.719 --> 00:53:35.800
this, this this most recent win, it gets sort of the mess B

743
00:53:36.039 --> 00:53:39.239
team, But like that road trip, I mean six and two, like

744
00:53:39.360 --> 00:53:43.480
this team is clearly turned a corner. Uh there. You know, we

745
00:53:43.599 --> 00:53:45.880
talked about some of the strides in
the fourth quarters tonight. I think they're

746
00:53:45.880 --> 00:53:51.000
gonna pull away from more of these
close games, and I think I'm just

747
00:53:51.239 --> 00:53:54.079
hoping that we get to the point
where things are looking a little easier for

748
00:53:54.159 --> 00:53:57.159
the Clippers at the same time,
you know what I mean. Like,

749
00:53:57.199 --> 00:54:00.000
I think it's great to see them
on the road sort of you know,

750
00:54:00.159 --> 00:54:04.880
gut out these sort of these these
sort of gritty wins, but like at

751
00:54:04.960 --> 00:54:08.920
home, I would like to see
them, you know, establish enough of

752
00:54:08.960 --> 00:54:12.800
a lead and hold on to it
well enough that they don't have to like

753
00:54:13.039 --> 00:54:15.880
pull out all the stops. You
know, every game doesn't have to be

754
00:54:15.920 --> 00:54:20.920
a cardiac Clippers game. But that
being said, I'll take the wins where

755
00:54:20.960 --> 00:54:22.920
I can get them. I'm still
thinking three. I'm thinking the Clippers can

756
00:54:23.000 --> 00:54:28.400
be can three, can do three. I'll go as high as two,

757
00:54:28.519 --> 00:54:30.719
But I'm thinking, realistically we can
get to that three spy, And that's

758
00:54:30.840 --> 00:54:35.920
really I do think that, you
know, barring any sort of injury stuff

759
00:54:35.960 --> 00:54:39.400
that needs to be a priority,
and considering the up and down season,

760
00:54:39.880 --> 00:54:45.679
that would seem like a windfall.
Then getting the three seed after going through

761
00:54:45.760 --> 00:54:49.199
all this, so I'm all forward. I'm with it. Here's William Updyke

762
00:54:49.679 --> 00:54:53.119
of Clips and Dip Pod with myself
and Chuck Mockler. Well, we'll see

763
00:54:53.280 --> 00:54:58.320
on the tripod tomorrow, my friend. All right, sounds good. I'll

764
00:54:58.360 --> 00:55:02.719
talk to you then time out here
on Clippers Talk coming back. We'll get

765
00:55:02.719 --> 00:55:08.039
to your phone calls. Morris Zach
will close things out with you. We'll

766
00:55:08.079 --> 00:55:12.960
hear from the head coach post game. Clippers win by seven in Brooklyn,

767
00:55:13.639 --> 00:55:15.199
got a little sketch down the stretch, but they pulled it out. They

768
00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:20.480
went one twenty four to one sixteen. And you're listening to the Los Angeles

769
00:55:20.519 --> 00:55:30.719
Clippers Raven Network. Chillie call I'm
back. I'm back with Challis Calli's Callie

770
00:55:32.119 --> 00:55:38.119
calls the outcome, ready to doubt
stall and one I feel like flocked.

771
00:55:38.159 --> 00:55:44.960
After the school was done, Clippers
one four one sixteen in Brooklyn washed the

772
00:55:45.280 --> 00:55:49.840
end of four and two in the
six game road trip by eight. Why

773
00:55:49.880 --> 00:55:52.599
I was saying seven early twenty three? Did they give the Clippers a three?

774
00:55:52.960 --> 00:55:58.719
They had a point? Am I
losing my mind? All the above?

775
00:55:59.559 --> 00:56:04.840
Eight six, six, eight two
seventy Clippers next ball game coming up

776
00:56:05.119 --> 00:56:09.599
back home against Alice, who will
now have Kyrie Irving to try to torment

777
00:56:09.719 --> 00:56:15.239
them, not just Luca Tonchet's should
be a good one. Wednesday night tip

778
00:56:15.280 --> 00:56:19.800
off at seven. Well, Clippers
Countdown live from downtown Los Angeles at six.

779
00:56:20.119 --> 00:56:22.039
Zach in Santa Monica, you're on
Clippers stock without Aim Oslin. How

780
00:56:22.119 --> 00:56:27.440
Zach? Can you hear me?
I can hear you, Zach? What's

781
00:56:27.519 --> 00:56:31.119
up? Okay? So well,
first of all, I want to give

782
00:56:31.199 --> 00:56:36.280
the Clippers credit for breaking Lawler's law
and coming back to night. That's not

783
00:56:36.519 --> 00:56:42.280
easy to do, so I'm happy
with that. But I agree with you

784
00:56:42.519 --> 00:56:45.679
it is very concerning to see them
like constantly. I don't know what they

785
00:56:45.800 --> 00:56:51.360
call it, just not closing out
games. I guess I have a theory

786
00:56:51.800 --> 00:56:54.400
as to well, I think there's
only one thing I can think of as

787
00:56:54.440 --> 00:56:59.159
to why that's been going on lately. I don't know if you would agree

788
00:56:59.199 --> 00:57:00.840
and what you think is the reason, But I guess what do you think

789
00:57:00.880 --> 00:57:05.400
they need to do? If to
make any changes, if it all to

790
00:57:05.480 --> 00:57:09.320
stop closing, you know, be
able to close games out effectively. Some

791
00:57:09.519 --> 00:57:14.360
of it is just make or mis
league, but I do think there's something

792
00:57:14.440 --> 00:57:20.280
to being too comfortable facing adversity and
being down in games because they've faced that

793
00:57:20.480 --> 00:57:23.239
so much over the last couple of
years. That's when they play their best.

794
00:57:23.440 --> 00:57:28.199
But you gotta put teams away as
well, and we just haven't seen

795
00:57:28.679 --> 00:57:31.000
enough of it recently. But I'll
say this, I've mentioned it before.

796
00:57:31.800 --> 00:57:36.960
You know, this is a team
that struggled late in games during the twenty

797
00:57:37.079 --> 00:57:39.880
twenty one season, and then after
the All Star break they corrected it.

798
00:57:40.000 --> 00:57:44.440
They were fine. They were great
in clutch situations, obviously in the playoffs.

799
00:57:44.800 --> 00:57:49.920
So it's not like what happens now
has to translate into the playoffs.

800
00:57:50.000 --> 00:57:55.719
They can still figure this out,
right, Well, yeah, I hope

801
00:57:55.760 --> 00:58:00.559
that, you know, they do
have time. Yeah, I as far

802
00:58:00.639 --> 00:58:04.079
as I see it, it go
though either way, So I hope that

803
00:58:04.159 --> 00:58:07.800
they do figure it out. For
mistake of all of our sanity. Why,

804
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:10.559
I'm kind of what you there.
Thank you, Zack. I appreciate

805
00:58:10.679 --> 00:58:15.320
the phone call. But you know, when they come out on top,

806
00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:19.639
you can exhale and take a deep
breath, all right, Kevin and Huyton

807
00:58:19.719 --> 00:58:24.760
Beach. Kevin, what's up here
in Cliverer shock? Appreciate Hi, Kevin

808
00:58:24.800 --> 00:58:31.960
what'd you think of the ball game
and your station? And you know they're

809
00:58:32.000 --> 00:58:38.440
playing great. I look at it
possibly finishing what forty nine and thirty three

810
00:58:38.920 --> 00:58:43.519
ish, and I'm not sure where
that exactly would put us as far as

811
00:58:44.280 --> 00:58:46.400
you know, a feeding goes.
I think that would be, uh,

812
00:58:46.679 --> 00:58:50.960
that's what I'd be in the hunt
for a top three seed definitely with forty

813
00:58:51.079 --> 00:58:54.800
nine wins. That means they're saying
they're going nineteen and six, I believe.

814
00:58:54.840 --> 00:58:59.000
Then the rest of the way I
am I looking at that, Yeah,

815
00:59:00.320 --> 00:59:07.599
not not easy with their schedule eighteen
and seven possibly, okay, right

816
00:59:07.880 --> 00:59:13.280
exactly, and that falls in about
the free spot. Huh. I think

817
00:59:13.480 --> 00:59:17.119
the way things are tracking right now, the trajectory of some of this Western

818
00:59:17.280 --> 00:59:22.719
Conference beat each other up, track
down records. You know, that's what's

819
00:59:22.719 --> 00:59:25.840
been happening in all season long.
It's really interesting. It's amazing that the

820
00:59:25.960 --> 00:59:29.639
Lakers are, like, what,
only five games out of the rats.

821
00:59:29.719 --> 00:59:34.000
It's the it's the incincredible. Not
concerned with them right now, but yeah,

822
00:59:34.639 --> 00:59:37.519
anything else, Kevin, Nope,
go clip all right? I like

823
00:59:37.679 --> 00:59:43.800
it and it's strong there Morris in
Long Beach, Morris thereon Clipper Stock all

824
00:59:43.880 --> 00:59:45.760
right, the question on the floor. Are the Clippers that flip the switch

825
00:59:45.800 --> 00:59:49.280
team? Yes they are. I've
lost my mind. I don't get none.

826
00:59:49.519 --> 00:59:52.119
Say they show it up on the
defense. I remember the game the

827
00:59:52.159 --> 00:59:54.320
other day with Kawhi literally had five
deals and no files. Listen, when

828
00:59:54.360 --> 00:59:57.760
these guys got to turn it up, they can turn it up. Now,

829
00:59:57.840 --> 01:00:00.599
there's a lot of parallel in the
NBA today. I don't run away

830
01:00:00.599 --> 01:00:02.559
with nothing. But they got a
defense out of the turnovers. Remember when

831
01:00:02.599 --> 01:00:06.480
they were get the kings of the
turnovers? Then not like that. No

832
01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:07.840
more. You don't go back to
back turnovers in the fourth quarter, no

833
01:00:07.960 --> 01:00:10.199
more. In terms of adding to
the team, that we can get a

834
01:00:10.239 --> 01:00:15.400
guy like Valutinus right on and get
that guy bow Bowl from the from the

835
01:00:15.440 --> 01:00:17.440
Magic Great. But otherwise d Malone's
okay, then them go ahead and do

836
01:00:17.480 --> 01:00:20.960
what they're gonna do. They're getting
better. They're getting better, and they're

837
01:00:20.960 --> 01:00:22.800
getting better. We'll see what's up
at the waivers and the buyout. Okay,

838
01:00:22.960 --> 01:00:24.760
but you know what, at them, they're gonna win it. Man,

839
01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:28.800
We've just come too far and you
keep them taking I'm telling me the

840
01:00:28.840 --> 01:00:30.480
truth. They're gonna win it.
Talk to you later. All right,

841
01:00:30.639 --> 01:00:35.480
Morris, you bring up the turnovers
again, just seven in this ball game.

842
01:00:36.199 --> 01:00:38.519
They've been really good the last you
know what, I'm just gonna go

843
01:00:38.559 --> 01:00:44.320
back the last six games now and
pull this up. They've been averaging just

844
01:00:44.400 --> 01:00:46.840
eleven turnovers per game over their last
six. But that's about where they've been

845
01:00:46.880 --> 01:00:52.360
over the last fifteen. And this
is a team that's at fourteen turnovers per

846
01:00:52.440 --> 01:00:54.280
game on the season, so early
on, it tells you they were getting

847
01:00:54.320 --> 01:01:00.920
fifteen sixteen turnovers often. Clippers have
cleaned that up. That is a big

848
01:01:00.079 --> 01:01:04.880
part of how they've been able to
pull out victories. When they weren't playing

849
01:01:04.920 --> 01:01:08.000
their best down the stretch, they
still weren't turning it over and giving away

850
01:01:08.039 --> 01:01:12.679
too many easy buckets. Here was
coach lu the post game after they win

851
01:01:12.719 --> 01:01:19.440
one twenty four to one sixteen in
Brooklyn over the Mets. What you said,

852
01:01:19.519 --> 01:01:27.760
can tellas was on roll Night's on
a bigger roll. This ain't even

853
01:01:27.840 --> 01:01:31.960
the final will that they can Yeah, how many points you have? Oh?

854
01:01:32.039 --> 01:01:38.760
Really? Okay? I thought he
had fifty one my fault, so

855
01:01:39.119 --> 01:01:45.519
so they had had eight point league
game's obviously rolling. How did you get

856
01:01:45.679 --> 01:01:50.719
control back in the game. The
closest thing out. I thought defensively,

857
01:01:50.840 --> 01:01:52.039
you know, it was able to
get some stops and get out and transition

858
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:55.360
a little bit, and then went
to our small, small pick and roll

859
01:01:55.440 --> 01:02:00.119
and Kawhi and PG was able to
get into the paint score and also get

860
01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:02.960
into the pink, got Reggie a
big three, Kai got a normal open

861
01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:06.280
three that he you know, he
didn't knock down. But I thought,

862
01:02:06.320 --> 01:02:09.840
we really just settled down after that, being down eight, we just kind

863
01:02:09.840 --> 01:02:12.719
of settled down and took the time
out, and then we came out.

864
01:02:12.760 --> 01:02:16.079
We went on a nine a run
and then kind of had I control of

865
01:02:16.159 --> 01:02:19.239
the game. But I knew it
was gonna be a tough game tonight,

866
01:02:19.559 --> 01:02:23.320
you know, And like I said, Jacques got these guys playing playing extremely

867
01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:28.000
well, extremely hard. They played
together and he's done a fantastic job.

868
01:02:28.079 --> 01:02:30.400
So I knew tonight coming into it
was gonna be a tough game. But

869
01:02:30.760 --> 01:02:32.920
we did a good job taking care
of the basketball, only having nine turnovers

870
01:02:34.400 --> 01:02:37.039
again, you know, under double
digit turnovers, and you know, just

871
01:02:37.119 --> 01:02:39.920
a way to just to fight it
out. We could easily gave in last

872
01:02:39.960 --> 01:02:43.360
game of a road trip, but
we stuck with it. And like I

873
01:02:43.360 --> 01:02:45.760
said, was able to come out
with the win. So Kaui DC they

874
01:02:46.239 --> 01:02:50.840
had these fourth quarters were I mean, it doesn't look like the first threecorders.

875
01:02:50.920 --> 01:02:53.719
The games seemed to change. Those
shots aren't looking like they did to

876
01:02:53.840 --> 01:02:58.039
the game games, and they missed
the first five shots in the fourth quarterer,

877
01:02:58.800 --> 01:03:04.599
What do you think got them kind
of going to finish especially it's I

878
01:03:04.639 --> 01:03:07.360
mean, I don't know. I
mean, just talking to our analytics guys

879
01:03:07.400 --> 01:03:08.760
and talking to Jed, you know, just trying to figure it out.

880
01:03:08.880 --> 01:03:13.159
But he said, I shot quality
in the fourth is the same shot qualities

881
01:03:13.239 --> 01:03:15.440
in the first three quarters and as
usually unusual. So just you know,

882
01:03:15.440 --> 01:03:17.639
we just got to step up and
make shots. I think gotta get in

883
01:03:17.719 --> 01:03:21.360
some better shape a little bit as
well, you know, and I think

884
01:03:22.079 --> 01:03:24.639
in that fourth quarter shots are flat. You know, guys are not able

885
01:03:24.679 --> 01:03:29.760
to make shots. But continue to
keep getting better shape and it's gonna come.

886
01:03:29.880 --> 01:03:34.079
So, you know, every time
somebody just happens, you want to

887
01:03:34.159 --> 01:03:36.960
you look at myself first and just
kind of see what I can do better,

888
01:03:37.440 --> 01:03:38.719
But you know, putting our guys
in the right spots. Kawhi in

889
01:03:38.760 --> 01:03:42.440
the mid post, PG in the
post on the pick and rolls and like

890
01:03:42.480 --> 01:03:44.440
I said, we get the same
shot quality, but now we just got

891
01:03:44.519 --> 01:03:46.639
to make shots. And so however
I gotta figure that out. I will

892
01:03:46.719 --> 01:03:50.679
do that make or miss leak.
Yeah. At one point in the fourth

893
01:03:50.760 --> 01:03:54.199
quarter, the Clippers missed eight straight
shots to get down by eight with six

894
01:03:54.280 --> 01:03:59.920
minutes left, but then Kauai with
hit a jumper a pig shots settle them

895
01:04:00.079 --> 01:04:02.440
down and they would go on to
win by eight one forty four to one

896
01:04:02.599 --> 01:04:05.599
sixteen in Brooklyn over the nets they
go four and two on the Grammy road

897
01:04:05.639 --> 01:04:10.320

899
01:04:15.079 --> 01:04:20.920
