know he's feeling good. Take the
show with you anywhere you are and get

00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:20.239
the podcast. I mean, iHeart
radio while and now your host. He

5
00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:27.600
makes everything happen, Adam Astley.
After losing two games in a row,

6
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:32.399
the Clippers were hungry like a wolf
and they beat the Timberwolves in Minnesota one

7
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:36.399
nineteen to one twelve. Welcome in
the Clippers Talk. I could get used

8
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:40.200
to this. Eight six six nine
eight seven two five seventy eight six six

9
00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:45.880
ninety eight seven two five seventy is
the phone number coming up. You'll hear

10
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:49.320
from far abought S and Sharry from
SI. Now we'll get to your phone

11
00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:52.920
calls. You'll hear from sweet Low
Williams postgame, Patrick Beverley in the head

12
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:57.479
coach Toronto lou After the Clippers get
back to their winning ways. But it

13
00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:02.640
wasn't easy. Early on, there
was a lot of negativity on Twitter,

14
00:01:03.119 --> 00:01:07.040
people saying the Clippers were playing worse
than they did against the Dallas Mavericks when

15
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:11.120
they lost by fifty one points.
They weren't guarding anyone on the perimeter.

16
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.280
But once that third quarter rolls around, once they get out of halftime,

17
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:19.920
once whatever Toronto Lou says to them
to motivate them going into the third quarter

18
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:25.159
happens. It works. They outscored
Minnesota by thirty, They scored thirty three,

19
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:30.040
They outscored Minnesota by thirteen points in
that third quarter, held Minnesota to

20
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:36.319
just twenty and there was a lot
of more energy on the court and some

21
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:41.680
of it was supplied by Reggie Jackson, who had seven of his fifteen points

22
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:45.480
in the third. Terrence Mann,
though, came in and gave them really

23
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:49.120
good minutes in that third quarter.
He's been playing great lately, probably his

24
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:53.000
best stretch so far as a pro. Look. He finished with just four

25
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:59.359
points, just five rebounds, and
two assists, but he did all that

26
00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:04.400
in an a minute stretch in that
third quarter. You saw the nice alleyup

27
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:07.400
he put up for Kawhi Leonard,
who bounced back after two games where he

28
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:12.520
combined to shoot just seventeen of forty
from the field, tonight he goes thirteen

29
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:16.199
of twenty five, has thirty six
points, his season high, and after

30
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:22.400
going over seven his last two games, from distance. Kawhi win five of

31
00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:28.120
six from three, had two of
them in the fourth quarter. Twelve of

32
00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:31.439
his thirty six points came in that
fourth But how about Sweet Lou Williams.

33
00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:37.400
And I've been tracking this as it
was his fourth straight game being in double

34
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:42.919
figures now, But even more interesting
than that is how he's getting into double

35
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.400
figures and how he's doing the majority
of his scoring. It looks like twenty

36
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:52.360
seventeen, twenty nineteen Sweet Lou Williams
when he led the league in the fourth

37
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:57.319
quarters scoring. Let everyone still should
have been an All Star. But over

38
00:02:57.439 --> 00:03:01.800
his last four fourth quarters now Lou
Williams. Going back to the game against

39
00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:05.719
the Cavaliers, the last game of
that last road trip, where he had

40
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:08.120
nine points in the fourth quarter.
Then the next game against Boston they're back

41
00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:12.400
at Staples Center, he has fourteen
points on the fourth quarter. Then on

42
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:15.639
Sunday against the Sacramento Kings, he
has eleven points in the fourth quarter.

43
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:20.840
Tonight has thirteen more points in the
fourth against Minnesota. He has scored forty

44
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:27.000
seven points in his last four games
in the fourth quarter alone, and his

45
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:30.599
scoring has gone up a little bit
each in every game. And there are

46
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:34.240
a lot of people that owe him
an apology here, not me. You

47
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:37.520
know, I've always believed in the
underground goat. As long as he's moving

48
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.199
well, the shot is the last
thing to go. And while the hip

49
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:45.360
was affecting it a little bit,
Lou Williams is a streaky shooter. But

50
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:47.759
when he gets hot, like tonight
when he had a season high twenty seven

51
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:53.039
points, went ten to fifteen from
the field, and at thirteen of those

52
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:57.520
points in the fourth quarter, he
is so tough to stop and gives the

53
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:02.560
Clippers an extra element. And Noah
Eagle was talking about this, but sometimes

54
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:06.680
when guys are out like Paul George
has been third straight game, Patrick Beverley

55
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:11.240
was back. He provided a shot
in the arm in limited minutes, just

56
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:15.040
played eighteen, but took the ball
coast to coast for one of his baskets,

57
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:18.519
and that was just good to see. One of his was also assisted

58
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:26.160
by Kawhi Leonard, who caught Patrick
Beverly in the first half going downhill cherry

59
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:30.399
picking for an easy basket. The
Clippers haven't got enough of those this season.

60
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:33.680
It looked like Kawhi Leonard was intent
on pushing the ball down the floor,

61
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:38.639
but when sweet Lou Williams is going
like this, and if he can

62
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:42.480
keep it up when Paul George returns, they are going to be even more

63
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:49.240
lethal, especially at the end of
games when Tehron lu is maximizing and optimizing

64
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:54.639
lineups and figuring out who he wants
to close out games. Lou Williams is

65
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:58.399
typically one of those guys you know
Pg. Thirteen and Kawhi Leonard are going

66
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.199
to be out there. But if
Lou Williams can play like this where he

67
00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:05.959
is also assisting guys. He had
a beautiful assist under the basket two Kawhi

68
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:11.680
Leonard in the fourth where I believe
they had to foul on that play.

69
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:14.800
The Minnesota Timberwolves and the Clippers got
to the free throw line a lot,

70
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:18.000
something else we've been stressing. Went
twenty five of twenty nine from the free

71
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:25.639
throw line, went twelve of twenty
three from distance, So they were good

72
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:29.240
in the first half. They were
six of twelve, but they hadn't taken

73
00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:33.680
a lot of three pointers. They
end up going six of eleven from three

74
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:39.319
even better in the second half,
and there were some timely ones I've been

75
00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:43.680
I need to look this up because
I feel like Marcus Morris continues to shoot

76
00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:46.480
his best in fourth quarters from distance. He had a big three pointer in

77
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:49.519
the fourth even though a tough game, just three of twelve ten points.

78
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:55.480
Hit a big shot in the fourth
if Etsa Zubos didn't have his best performance,

79
00:05:56.079 --> 00:06:00.680
but was better in that third quarter. But Terrence Mann and Sweet Lou

80
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:04.959
Williams, they were really good off
the bench. And then you had Patrick

81
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:09.439
Beverly providing that energy, providing that
jolt, that shot in the arm the

82
00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:13.040
Clippers have needed. He hasn't played
in eighth straight games, so to see

83
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:15.040
him respond in that way. He
didn't hit a three pointer, but only

84
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:20.759
took one, only took four shots, but look good overall. He didn't

85
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:24.279
get credited with a steal, but
I feel like he had at least one

86
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:29.079
tipped pass. Kawhi Leonard, though
had a couple of steals. Nicholas Batoum

87
00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:31.720
had a couple of steals. Clippers
didn't play very well in the first half.

88
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:35.519
You have to admit that. But
to flip that switch again in the

89
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:40.040
third quarter and do so on the
road where they are now ten and four

90
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:45.120
and eight and eight overall on the
season, it's a nice win. Minnesota

91
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:47.920
By the way, I feel like
they got a lift from having Carl Anthony

92
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:53.480
Towns back. He's only played four
games so far this season. He has

93
00:06:53.560 --> 00:07:00.639
been under some extraordinary circumstances recently with
things off the court, with losing family

94
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:04.399
members, and then he had COVID. He's been in COVID protocols. Prayers

95
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:08.000
up for Carl Anthony Towns. It
was just good to see him back out

96
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:12.879
there. At eighteen points and ten
boards and thirty one minutes, but to

97
00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:16.360
start things off, I felt like
Minnesota getting their leader back, getting their

98
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:19.879
best player back, also had a
little bit of a spark, and they

99
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:24.360
were up by as many as thirteen
in the first half. Clippers led by

100
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:28.800
as many as fifteen in the fourth
quarter, So a twenty eight point turnaround

101
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:32.439
in a very nice win to start
off this quick two game road trip.

102
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:36.319
They'll be in Chicago Friday. More
on that coming up. Plus you'll hear

103
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:41.120
from Lou Williams. But first,
let's take a phone call CJ and Alhambra.

104
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:46.920
CJ. Anything to say to Sweetie
Williams, yo, Hey, sweet

105
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:50.319
Blue, pull out the lemon and
shake that pepper. Baby, You're back.

106
00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:55.439
You are back, and you want
to know something. Kauai was the

107
00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:59.839
leading scorer, but this was this
was Sweet Lows Night, and you know,

108
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:05.319
it's made me kind of wonder and
open my eyes to a possibility.

109
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:09.839
And I want to bounce this off
of you. Adam. What harm would

110
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:16.240
it be to have Sweet Lou as
our starting one, especially with Paul George's

111
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:22.360
absence. I think the playmaking,
that the offense that he brings would would

112
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:26.160
actually just be a nice one two
punch. While Paul George is still out

113
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:31.879
with his toe injury. So you're
talking about Lou Williams next to Patrick Beverley

114
00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:35.120
in the backcourt. No, no, no, no, I'm saying,

115
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:41.799
let's put Lou Williams as our starting
one, but we even win Paul George,

116
00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:46.720
sorry, even win Paul George is
healthy. Well no, no,

117
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.919
no, I'm saying while Paul George
is out, because Chicago is our next

118
00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:56.720
trip and we know that Paul George
isn't coming back, So I'm saying,

119
00:08:56.799 --> 00:09:01.159
let's put Lou Williams as our starting
one and have a second rotation of a

120
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:07.000
three guard rotation of Pat Jackson and
Kinnard. I think Lou Williams would just

121
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.120
be well. Hold on to CJ. You're missing something. Patrick Beverly and

122
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:15.320
Reggie Jackson started in the backcourt tonight, So which one of them is Lou

123
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:18.039
Williams starting over? Theoretically, in
your in your plan, it would it

124
00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:22.039
would be Pat Bev. It would
be Pat. Let Pat Bev get his

125
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:28.200
kind of limits. I think he
would be great off the bench. I

126
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:35.639
think in the meantime since since Paul
George is our number one playmaker, Lou

127
00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:39.799
will could could really help really just
motivate this this starting unit. See,

128
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:43.519
I'll put it this way, CG
CJ. I don't hate the idea,

129
00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:48.320
but if I were to do it, I would probably start him over Reggie

130
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:52.759
Jackson next to Patrick Beverley in the
starting lineup because Pat Bev has been so

131
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:56.799
good with this team. In the
starting lineup going back years now, Clippers

132
00:09:56.799 --> 00:10:01.480
are ninety nine and forty seven when
he's available, going back the last couple

133
00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:05.679
of seasons. When he's not,
they're sixteen and eighteen. He means so

134
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:11.320
much to this team. And when
he and Kawhi play, the Clippers are

135
00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:18.039
now forty six and thirteen. That's
a seven eighty winning percentage. That would

136
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.120
be a sixty four win pace during
a normal eighty two games schedule. I

137
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:26.200
just don't know if you want to
take Patrick Beverley out of the starting lineup.

138
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:30.600
He also is a tone setter.
I've always said this because I think

139
00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:33.960
it's true. When Patrick Beverly is
out there on the court, he can

140
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:37.120
only do so much cheering guys on
on the sidelines, and he's been great

141
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:39.080
doing that the last couple of games. But when he's with his teammates out

142
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:43.919
there on the court, he is
a constant reminder of how they have to

143
00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:48.440
play. Clippers win one nineteen to
one twelve in Minnesota over the Timberwolves.

is every moment all season long? I'm

back home at the CLiPPA still not come

150
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:22.279
in here, move Minnesota, get
off the way. Okay, Clippers win

151
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:28.840
in Minnesota one nineteen to one twelve
over the Timberwolves. This is Clipper Stock.

152
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:31.120
I'm at a maslind eight six six
ninety eight seven two five seventy eight

153
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:35.559
six six nine eight seven two five
seventy is the phone number coming up in

154
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:39.720
this segment you will hear from Sweet
Lou Williams. He goes for a season

155
00:11:39.799 --> 00:11:45.519
high twenty seven points on ten of
fifteen shooting. But let's get to Jose

156
00:11:45.799 --> 00:11:48.399
and south Gate. Jose, what's
up here on Clipper Stock with Adam moslind

157
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:52.840
Hey, Adam, once again,
thank you for another great post game,

158
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:58.639
oh man, twenty three points in
twenty three minutes. I'm pretty solid in

159
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:03.559
the only Kiver fan who so guilty
of having Lou Williams on the shopping block

160
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:07.679
for a trade. But to tonight
just called all that bag. If he's

161
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:11.799
still vulnerability deep down in the playoffs
on defense, maybe, but right now

162
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:13.399
it's not about that. Go I
saw one of his signature shoes, and

163
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:18.320
when I saw that, I knew
he was a baby up plays. I

164
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:22.240
love you Adam all right, Jose, thank you, Hey, do not

165
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:26.279
sleep on the underground Defensive Player of
the Year, Sweet Lou Williams, who

166
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:28.480
once again We've seen this all season
long, even going back to last year

167
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:33.120
in the bubble. At times in
the fourth quarter he comes away with big

168
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:35.799
steals. He had one for himself
where he got out into the open floor

169
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:39.759
for a layup in the fourth quarter, and then he had another one late

170
00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:43.919
in the fourth quarter where Reggie Jackson
showed off the hops. He still got

171
00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:48.879
them. Lou Williams post game is
coming up in just moments, but I

172
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:52.519
want to say it's not just tonight. It's what he's done the last four

173
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.399
games, scoring fifteen points, then
eighteen points, then twenty three points,

174
00:12:56.440 --> 00:13:00.519
and then tonight with this season high
twenty seven points. So things have been

175
00:13:00.759 --> 00:13:05.360
building. They have been trending in
the right direction for Lou Williams. And

176
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:09.879
his three point shooting actually has been
really good all season long. He's shooting

177
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:13.840
after tonight, I think he's gonna
be shooting about thirty nine percent from three

178
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:18.440
on the season. So he's been
missing some easy ones, he's been missing

179
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:20.679
some floaters, some shots at the
ram. He's been missing when he goes

180
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:26.919
left in the mid range, or
he was missing earlier this season. That

181
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:31.879
looks to be fixed now. The
underground got is back and this is a

182
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:35.679
huge development for the Clippers. Tagus
in Walnut, You're on Clippers stop with

183
00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:43.720
Adam oslin Hi they adam to go
on that point. I think early on

184
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:46.799
lou Williams was he was missing a
lot of those shots. I know he

185
00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:50.159
was injured, but part of the
reason was he was trying to I think,

186
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:54.879
build that chemistry with the second unit, especially Zoback like he did with

187
00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:00.679
Montrez. I saw for so much
early on in the season where he was

188
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:03.200
kind of he had a lot of
those open shots, but he was looking

189
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:09.279
to pass. And now you know, for the past four or five games,

190
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:13.000
you can see he's looking to shoot
when he's open and just playing with

191
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:18.879
the defense is giving him and he's
you know, just playing in rhythm now

192
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:22.080
and I think that makes a big
difference. It took some time, but

193
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:28.120
I think that's one of the bigger
things that I saw. And I just

194
00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:31.120
wanted to say also, Nick,
Buttom this probably went under the radar,

195
00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:37.000
but he guarded positions from one to
five again, some on Karl Anthony Towns

196
00:14:37.240 --> 00:14:39.120
for a lot of the game and
then at times on Rickey Rubio. So

197
00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:45.320
you won't see it in his offensive
debts, but I mean to guard one

198
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:48.320
through five takes a lot of pressure
off the other guys like Kawhi. Thanks

199
00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:52.240
Adam, that's a great point Tagus. You will see this in the box

200
00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:54.799
score. He led the Clippers with
ten boards. Kawhi was second with eight,

201
00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:00.279
but sweet Low Williams had also four
sis to go along with his twenty

202
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:03.679
seven points. And here was the
underground goat post game after the Clippers win

203
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:07.480
one nineteen to one twelve in Minnesota. The effort was there all year long.

204
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.200
I know you were nicked up maybe
the last ten games, but it

205
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:16.440
feels like to me the last four
games you have returned to who you are

206
00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:18.080
and happened for the Clippers for the
last three years. Is that a fair

207
00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:22.759
statement. Yeah, just trust in
my training, being confident in my abilities.

208
00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:26.799
You know, when you're shooting your
score, sometimes you go through last

209
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:28.679
wore you just can't can't make the
ball going a round. I always say,

210
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:31.679
if you're gonna go out on the
floor, you're gonna get inside of

211
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:37.960
the line. You make no excuses
for yourself. Silver, I never make

212
00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:39.279
excuses for myself. You know,
if I'm a play, I'm a play.

213
00:15:39.879 --> 00:15:43.159
Whatever injuries I'm dealing with, So
I'm happy that I'm starting to get

214
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:48.639
it gone, Lou Jimmy Jackson,
congrats twenty three on Sunday twenty seven,

215
00:15:48.759 --> 00:15:52.919
this evening. How much of being
a profession on a pro has allowed you

216
00:15:54.000 --> 00:15:56.879
to weather the storm when you were
younger, maybe you react to not shooting

217
00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:02.559
the ball well differently, but now
at thirty or you seem to have weathered

218
00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:06.960
that and now I've gotten back to
who we are accustomed to scene absolutely,

219
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.159
Like I said, just trusting the
process. At this point in my career,

220
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:11.279
I know who I am, I
know what I bring to the table.

221
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:15.639
I'm confident in my ability. So
you know, a hard time never

222
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:18.279
humble me, man, I just
keep playing. You were greeted by Pat

223
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:22.840
Beverley there. Can you tell us
what the team gains when he is on

224
00:16:22.960 --> 00:16:25.600
the floor. What did you guys
miss when he was off of it?

225
00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:29.960
Just what he did? Energy,
he brings, excitement, gets everybody going.

226
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.039
And you know those times where you're
looking for that all you're looking for

227
00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:34.720
that that next push, You're looking
for some energy, looking for something to

228
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:37.000
get you going. Pat has always
been that guy. So it was happy

229
00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:40.399
that we were happy to have them
back tonight. You know what Lou will

230
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:44.080
I knew you were special because your
birthday is October twenty seventh. I'm the

231
00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:48.279
fourteenth. But you're in the customer
that libra, the scorpio size, but

232
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:52.720
you're touching the greatness of the libra. And I'm glad to see that.

233
00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:55.720
You've got a smile on your face, bro, and you're playing well.

234
00:16:56.399 --> 00:17:00.000
I appreciate it, Lou, appreciate
your time. Go celebrate with your teammates.

235
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:03.680
I'm not going to say the stars
aligned for Sweet LEEUW. Williams to

236
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:07.160
get twenty seven points in the fourth
quarter, to get twenty seven points in

237
00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:11.200
the game, thirteen in the fourth
quarter. But I will say, and

238
00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:15.160
I've said this before, back during
that twenty seventeen twenty eighteen season, he

239
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:19.319
became one of the best players in
the league that you would want on your

240
00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:25.079
side in fourth quarters where he just
feels it and starts to get hot.

241
00:17:25.200 --> 00:17:29.079
And they didn't have Kawai then,
they didn't have Paul George then. So

242
00:17:29.319 --> 00:17:33.880
in theory, Sweet Lou should be
getting easier. Looks more so now than

243
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:37.240
ever. So this is a great
sign for the Clippers that he started to

244
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:41.960
get it going, and hopefully it
continues They're in Chicago Friday night. More

245
00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:45.319
on that coming up, plus far
about Essenshari will be on next You also

246
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:48.759
hear from Pat Beverley. He returned
for his first game in three weeks,

247
00:17:49.519 --> 00:17:52.279
had just six points. Who cares, he was a plus eight out there

248
00:17:52.960 --> 00:18:00.519
Hustle Place, difference maker, the
heart and soul more Clipper stock right here

249
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:11.279
on AM five seventy, LA Sports
better there he erased it at the Rimbi

250
00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:18.319
never had a chance. This is
La Clippers Basketball on the official home of

251
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:27.599
your LA Clippers. Well, it
always feels like your birthday when the Clippers

252
00:18:27.680 --> 00:18:33.559
win. Shawty Clippers win one,
nineteen to one twelve over the Minnesota Timberwolves.

253
00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:38.319
They stopped their two games slide.
They were up just six or down

254
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:41.759
six and a half, up seven
going into the fourth quarter. They were

255
00:18:42.000 --> 00:18:48.440
up eleven in the first minute of
the fourth quarter, but less than a

256
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:52.839
minute and a half later thanks to
Nas Reid, who went illmatic with it

257
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:56.720
for the Minnesota Timberwolves. He had
nine points during about a minute and a

258
00:18:56.759 --> 00:19:00.160
half stretch. It was just a
two point game, Clippers leading by just

259
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:04.519
two, but then sweet Sweet loew
Williams had a quick five points. Kawhi

260
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:10.240
Leonard had twelve of his thirty six
in the fourth, Clippers led by as

261
00:19:10.279 --> 00:19:12.559
many as fifteen. They go on
to win one nineteen to one twelve.

262
00:19:12.680 --> 00:19:17.559
Welcome back into Clipper stock. I'm
Adam Oslin to eight six six nine eight

263
00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:21.039
seven two five seventy. Can you
believe this? I got sent straight to

264
00:19:21.160 --> 00:19:25.240
voicemail by far bought Essen Shari just
because he's talking to Kawhi Leonard and I

265
00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:27.599
guess that's more of a big deal
than coming on here. Next segment we'll

266
00:19:27.640 --> 00:19:33.680
have far Bought on until then mentioned
New Jersey. What you got? Heaps?

267
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:38.920
How I'm good match? What do
you think about the game? Uh?

268
00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:47.200
Great games Corey, We's kremb team, Lou Williams is back, Maybe

269
00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:53.000
we'll win the six. Keep keeping
up his playing comes SA and I'm good

270
00:19:53.799 --> 00:20:00.440
man scamblers. I want to see
young guys do managem family get him experience.

271
00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:03.920
But specially made all right match,
Thank you for the phone call.

272
00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:10.000
You mentioned Kawhi there and I think
he brought up MVP and I got a

273
00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:15.799
tweet just a few minutes ago talking
about how Kawai was over seven from three

274
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:18.759
his last two games, and then
tonight he goes five of six. He

275
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:22.240
was my player to watch. I
decided that stat earlier in the pregame show

276
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:26.519
because I thought he would bounce back
and respond after having two days off.

277
00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:33.160
But then I get Johnny Mobile tweeting
me he is good not great. I

278
00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:37.640
look, you don't even have to
wear a Lakers hat. You could just

279
00:20:37.839 --> 00:20:41.119
hate in that way, and I
know you're a Lakers fan already. Kawhi

280
00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:47.839
is good, not great. He's
a two time Finals MVP. He's finished

281
00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:52.920
top three in MVP voting during the
regular season before, and he's top five

282
00:20:53.079 --> 00:20:59.400
right now in my estimation this season
when it comes to being an MVP candidate

283
00:20:59.759 --> 00:21:02.640
and people have to take notice,
but especially right now when you win a

284
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:07.200
ballgame like this without Paul George.
I just find it hilarious that people have

285
00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:15.039
Kevin Durant above Kawhi Leonard when he's
playing next to James Harden and Kyrie Irving.

286
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:18.680
When they use the logic logic for
Kawhi that well, he's playing next

287
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:22.519
to Paul George, Well, okay, make it makes sense. Katie is

288
00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:26.759
playing next to Kyrie Irving and James
Harden, Jeff and Tarzana. You're on

289
00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:33.000
Clippers talk. Hey, hey,
uh, you know what you know?

290
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:37.319
I love the Clippers and it's really
hard to call after they lose two games

291
00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:41.400
like they did. But I have
to be honest, Adam, the best

292
00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:45.680
player in basketball is Lebron James.
And that's fine. You gotta prove it

293
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:49.039
against him in a seven game sitting. Wait, wait, who said otherwise?

294
00:21:49.079 --> 00:21:55.079
Who even brought up Lebron James?
Jeff were talking last year? Yeah,

295
00:21:55.920 --> 00:21:59.319
Lebron James should have got the MVP
last year. You're honestly then,

296
00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:03.359
and Kompo had better numbers, his
team had. His team had the best

297
00:22:04.759 --> 00:22:10.000
it's a regular season award. He
had the best numbers. He was the

298
00:22:10.079 --> 00:22:12.720
best player on the best team during
the regular season. That's how MVP regulars.

299
00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:17.359
You ever seen the guy that's thirty
six year old, It's still been

300
00:22:17.359 --> 00:22:22.160
the best player in the league at
thirty six. Lebron's amazing. Yeah.

301
00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:25.519
I the only thing I've ever met
at Lebron was he picked the wrong LA

302
00:22:25.640 --> 00:22:29.279
team to go to. Jeff,
the Clippers win by seven to night and

303
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:32.599
you're stuck on Lebron. He's living
rent free. But here's what I wanted

304
00:22:32.640 --> 00:22:34.480
to ask you add him. Remember
I was a little bit down on Lou

305
00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:38.400
Williams earlier in this year. Yeah, you were. You can apologize no,

306
00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:44.200
because we're not over yet. He
is a great player. He just

307
00:22:44.359 --> 00:22:47.480
came out of the slump. You
know, these players are hot and cold,

308
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:52.440
and you know what, I don't
take much stock and beating a team

309
00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:56.640
that is six and eighteen. You
know, when they start beating teams that

310
00:22:56.759 --> 00:23:02.200
are that are over five hundreds,
that I'm glad that they won and I've

311
00:23:02.359 --> 00:23:07.519
always root for them, but have
them What is your record at home and

312
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:11.160
what is your record against teams that
are over five hundred. I'll try to

313
00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:15.039
get that for you, Jeff.
But to act like Minnesota is six and

314
00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:21.839
nineteen now after this loss with Carl
Anthony Towns would be incorrect. This was

315
00:23:21.960 --> 00:23:26.279
just the fifth game he's played all
season, so it's an injury influenced record.

316
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:30.839
There's a difference. They are more
talented than the record would speak to.

317
00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:33.759
But yes, there's hot, there's
cold during the season, but there's

318
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:38.079
also banged up and injured, and
that's where Lou Williams was at. So

319
00:23:38.960 --> 00:23:44.359
you had to let him fight through
that hip injury and get healthy and then

320
00:23:45.519 --> 00:23:48.319
assess where he's at the age of
thirty four coming off the bench, and

321
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:52.680
what he can still do and what
can he still provide this Clippers team,

322
00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:56.720
and tonight it was twenty seven points
on just fifteen shots. He looked like,

323
00:23:56.200 --> 00:24:00.799
as Noah Eagles said postgame, this
was a class sick, virtuoso performance

324
00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:06.039
from Lou Williams. All right,
we'll take a quick break. We'll come

325
00:24:06.079 --> 00:24:10.319
back. You'll hear from farbod essence

331
00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:48.599

333
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:56.240
seventy is the phone number we get
back to your phone calls. You'll hear

334
00:24:56.279 --> 00:24:59.680
a little bit from Patrick Beverly post
game. He plays his first game in

335
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:03.720
three weeks at six points three boards. But first let's get to a man

336
00:25:04.480 --> 00:25:10.799
that sent me straight to voicemail just
because he was talking to Kawhi Leonard post

337
00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:14.200
game. So I'm not gonna act
like I'm a bigger deal than that.

338
00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:18.480
I'm gonna be understanding here. Far
Board, thanks for coming back on Clippers

339
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:22.920
stock. It's any consolation. I
told Kawai I put him on voicemail.

340
00:25:23.000 --> 00:25:29.240
Next time you guys got a trade
off? Does he have a phone?

341
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:41.680
Kawhi's got a pager? I think
yes, A far bodes and sorry covers

342
00:25:41.720 --> 00:25:47.400
the Clippers for SI now follow him
at farbod underscore e on Twitter. So

343
00:25:47.559 --> 00:25:48.519
far Board, you know, I'm
not going to name any names, but

344
00:25:48.599 --> 00:25:52.400
there were some people that were really
freaking out early in the game, overreacting,

345
00:25:52.559 --> 00:25:56.480
just making fools themselves on Twitter.
What change for the Clippers in the

346
00:25:56.559 --> 00:26:02.720
second half? It was some guy
whose name rhymes is far Board. But

347
00:26:04.359 --> 00:26:07.720
it wasn't No, it wasn't just
you. It was not just you.

348
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:11.680
Kawhii. Actually, one of the
things he said postgame was we were awful

349
00:26:11.920 --> 00:26:15.759
in the first quarter. I asked
tylu I mean, obviously the adjustments were

350
00:26:15.839 --> 00:26:18.880
there and they changed that. But
I asked Tyler, what did he say,

351
00:26:18.920 --> 00:26:22.000
because it felt like in the first
quarter they were just ball watching everything.

352
00:26:22.240 --> 00:26:25.599
I mean even a good chunk of
the second quarter, it was just

353
00:26:25.680 --> 00:26:29.680
wide open threes and ball watching.
And Tyler said he gave a speech halftime

354
00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:33.519
about how all the guys were soft
and that they're letting him be more physical

355
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:37.960
than them and they need to start
crashing the boards. And clearly that speech

356
00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:41.720
worked because the first half to second
half difference was huge. He really rallied

357
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:45.960
the troops there. Well done,
head coach tehron Lou. Kawhi Leonard bounced

358
00:26:47.000 --> 00:26:51.160
back, he rallied himself. He
was good in the first quarter overall.

359
00:26:51.319 --> 00:26:53.640
I think he had eight points in
the first quarter, but finished with thirty

360
00:26:53.680 --> 00:26:56.640
six, had twenty of those in
the second half, and goes five of

361
00:26:56.799 --> 00:27:00.559
six from distance. What do you
think the difference was for Kawhi Leonard in

362
00:27:00.599 --> 00:27:07.000
this game as opposed to the last
two. Honestly, I mean, it

363
00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:10.640
felt like there wasn't that much difference. Just the shots were kind of going

364
00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:14.480
in. I mean, it felt
like a lot of a lot of his

365
00:27:14.599 --> 00:27:17.640
points came at the very end where
it was like that weird stretch of time

366
00:27:17.680 --> 00:27:19.960
in the final two minutes where Minnesota
had lost, but they just kind of

367
00:27:21.000 --> 00:27:25.559
didn't want to lose, and they
kept pulling a ten to twelve point lead

368
00:27:25.599 --> 00:27:27.079
into a nine to eight point lead, and he just kept hitting big shot

369
00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:30.200
after big shot. But I don't
know, it just seemed like he was

370
00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:33.960
playing with more of a sense of
anger tonight. I mean, he looked

371
00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:37.599
angry at the rest well when he
didn't get that call accident at one point,

372
00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:41.880
well, he was. He was
just much more determined to get a

373
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:45.119
win. It felt like, don't
upset the claw. He also led them

374
00:27:45.240 --> 00:27:49.200
with five assists. I felt like
he was one of a few players that

375
00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:53.039
was trying to move the ball down
the floor faster. The Clippers ended up

376
00:27:53.119 --> 00:27:57.240
with eighteen fast break points, not
too shabby. He had a nice outlet

377
00:27:57.359 --> 00:28:02.400
pass after a steal to Patrick Beverley
for an easy bucket in the first half.

378
00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:06.039
But is that something that they have
to get better at with this offense,

379
00:28:06.200 --> 00:28:08.359
just playing a little bit faster and
getting more easy buckets out there.

380
00:28:10.319 --> 00:28:12.359
Yeah, they play really really slow. I mean, the only guys who

381
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:18.480
seems to really push the pace is
sometimes Kawai or Lou or Reggie, But

382
00:28:18.559 --> 00:28:22.519
when Reggie pushes the pace, it's
like a double edged swordy Either it's like

383
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:27.000
most Yolow shot of all time or
it's something pretty solid yolo. Reggie's my

384
00:28:27.079 --> 00:28:30.759
favorite. Sweet Lou Williams you mentioned
him there, he goes for a season

385
00:28:30.880 --> 00:28:34.039
high, just like Kawai did with
thirty six. Lou had twenty seven off

386
00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:38.880
the bench plus four assists his last
four games. Now he's been in double

387
00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:44.240
figures scoring wise. So is he
just healthy? Is it a hot streak?

388
00:28:44.480 --> 00:28:47.000
Because I was thinking about this earlier
and we talked about it with Noah

389
00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:49.720
Eagle. He brought up the point
that you know, there are opportunities for

390
00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:55.039
players when somebody else is out,
not that you ever want to see someone

391
00:28:55.160 --> 00:28:57.160
hurt. And we hope Paul George
is back as soon as possible. He

392
00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:02.440
won't be with them Friday again,
but it provides an opportunity for someone else

393
00:29:02.480 --> 00:29:06.160
to step up, play heavier minutes
and maybe get in rhythm. And is

394
00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:10.480
that what maybe is happening with Sweet
Lou Williams right now? I think it's

395
00:29:10.519 --> 00:29:14.079
a combination of things. Still,
like I think he's got his legs underneath

396
00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:17.119
him more and more. I mean, I think the hip injury is probably

397
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:19.039
bugging him more than anybody wanted to
say, because you know, the Clippers

398
00:29:19.240 --> 00:29:23.720
don't really say things when it's like
bothering them. I mean, we just

399
00:29:23.799 --> 00:29:27.400
saw Patrick Beverley told us today,
he said, we knew I was coming

400
00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:30.079
back this trip the whole time.
We just didn't want to tell anybody.

401
00:29:32.480 --> 00:29:36.680
But the thing with Lou is it's
it's interesting because it felt like today they

402
00:29:36.720 --> 00:29:40.720
were kind of reverting to the offense
they had last season, where it was

403
00:29:40.839 --> 00:29:44.759
a bit more ISO and a bit
more just getting the hands inside of one

404
00:29:44.839 --> 00:29:48.279
person instead of moving the ball around. But when you revert to that style,

405
00:29:48.480 --> 00:29:52.200
it benefits Lou pretty well, and
I think he capitalized on it more

406
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:56.559
than anyone today. Obviously he's good
in isolation, Kawhi Leonard is a great

407
00:29:56.640 --> 00:30:00.000
isolation player. But overall, to
me, it's look like and I think

408
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:03.079
coaches and players have talked about this
a little bit, but since that game

409
00:30:03.160 --> 00:30:07.119
against the Brooklyn Nets, it threw
off their offense a little bit. They

410
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:11.559
got into a heavy ISO game back
and forth down the stretch. They almost

411
00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:15.240
pulled it off. But since then, to me, there's been slippage offensively

412
00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:21.160
when they were the best passing team
I believe overall, and that was setting

413
00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:23.160
up them shooting so well from three. Have you seen the same thing,

414
00:30:25.519 --> 00:30:27.319
Yeah, I don't think I've seen
the same offense that they've had. I

415
00:30:27.400 --> 00:30:33.200
think maybe they had it for one
quarter against Boston and then they didn't really

416
00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:37.440
have it again after that they I
think it has something to do with just

417
00:30:37.519 --> 00:30:41.319
the fact that the Clipper system is
such a it's such a two headed monster

418
00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:44.359
where if you have one of them
out, the whole thing kind of changes

419
00:30:44.440 --> 00:30:48.000
dramatically because the concerns of, you
know, we need a ball handler and

420
00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:51.160
we need a playmak here and this
and that that doesn't really exist when they

421
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:55.079
have both of their guys. But
once one of those two monsters comes out,

422
00:30:55.160 --> 00:30:57.640
then they actually kind of need one. So it's a it's a weird

423
00:30:57.720 --> 00:31:02.920
knee jerk reaction where people are clamoring
for a ball handler, but they won't

424
00:31:02.960 --> 00:31:04.240
need one as soon as they're healthy. What they need more at home.

425
00:31:06.240 --> 00:31:10.720
Last one for you here, far
Bod Terrence Man I thought was pivotal,

426
00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:14.759
especially in that third quarter where the
Clippers won the third by thirteen points.

427
00:31:14.920 --> 00:31:18.759
His energy, his hustle. He
was doing his best Pat Beverly impersonation.

428
00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:22.440
I think he had four of his
five rebounds in that third quarter alone plus

429
00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:26.400
four points. Are we starting to
see the type of player he's going to

430
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:30.680
be in this league crystallize over the
past couple of weeks. Yeah, it

431
00:31:30.759 --> 00:31:34.240
seems like he's way more of an
identity this season than he did in previous

432
00:31:34.279 --> 00:31:38.799
seasons. He's kind of really becoming
like a like a junior Pat Bev this

433
00:31:38.920 --> 00:31:42.960
season. And Pat had Pat had
jokes that he texts him and that he's

434
00:31:44.000 --> 00:31:47.799
going to get on him if he
doesn't perform like this because that's his rookie

435
00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:52.680
And so it seems like he just
has a really really good work ethic and

436
00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:56.119
he knows what they need from him, and he I mean, you saw

437
00:31:56.200 --> 00:32:00.640
it in the first half. I
felt like everybody was lack a daisical except

438
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:06.160
him, and he really really really
brought the hustle when they needed it.

439
00:32:06.640 --> 00:32:09.720
Yeah, his hustle plays for rebounds. There's that resemblance to Pat Bev.

440
00:32:09.799 --> 00:32:15.799
He had two offensive rebounds the Clippers. Overall, they were down ten one

441
00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:19.559
in the first six minutes of the
game. In terms of the rebounding battle.

442
00:32:19.960 --> 00:32:22.240
They ended up being a plus eight
on the board, so that also

443
00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:25.160
turned things around in a big way
for them. They end up winning by

444
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:30.799
seven in Minnesota one nineteen to one
twelve. Farbod s and Shari does a

445
00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:35.440
great job covering the Clippers with good
analysis for SI. Now he's been coming

446
00:32:35.480 --> 00:32:38.000
on with me for like a couple
of years now, Farbod. I'm sorry

447
00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:44.000
about the shade early on, but
at Farbot underscore E is where you find

448
00:32:44.119 --> 00:32:47.480
him on Twitter, and if you're
real tight with him, you'll get his

449
00:32:47.559 --> 00:32:52.200
phone number and he'll send you straight
to voicemail. Anyways, thanks, Farbod.

450
00:32:52.440 --> 00:32:55.599
At least we got the winning record
in a month. He has a

451
00:32:55.640 --> 00:33:00.359
good luck charm as well. Eight
six six nine eighty seven two five seventy.

452
00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:04.720
Before we get out of here,
on Clipper stock, Corey in Tampa,

453
00:33:05.079 --> 00:33:08.839
Corey, was that you on the
boat catching the Super Bowl the Lombardi

454
00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:14.680
Trophy from Brady earlier today? I
wish I was Man, but I was

455
00:33:14.799 --> 00:33:19.000
at work. It's actually Corey.
By the way, Corey, what did

456
00:33:19.039 --> 00:33:22.480
I say? Yeah, you said
Corey, but it's Corey. But it's

457
00:33:22.519 --> 00:33:24.519
okay. Play the two corries.
What are we talking okay either way,

458
00:33:25.480 --> 00:33:29.440
Corey, what did you think about
the game tonight? Calling from Tampa?

459
00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:34.519
It was good, man. You
know, I was worried in the first

460
00:33:34.599 --> 00:33:37.920
quarter, first half, but you
know the third we are the third quarter

461
00:33:38.039 --> 00:33:43.759
Clippers this season, and he turned
it up with our sworn defense. I

462
00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:50.079
like what what Kawa was doing.
I like what Luke did. Scares me

463
00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:54.880
sometimes because we hear you know about
trade, trade him in trades and as

464
00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:59.960
scared as me. You can't have
games like this and he just bread count

465
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:02.559
and I'm like, man, can
we just keep them? Keep them going?

466
00:34:02.720 --> 00:34:08.039
But I like, you know,
was Zoo doing, sir so a

467
00:34:08.079 --> 00:34:14.719
little bit today? To him is
always on in the in the Cornerston and

468
00:34:14.840 --> 00:34:20.239
Lawrence too. But actually I want
to know who can we target in a

469
00:34:20.400 --> 00:34:24.559
trade, like I was hearing reports
about, like Rondo possibly, or do

470
00:34:24.639 --> 00:34:29.280
we need to add another wing like
PG Sucker or try to get another big

471
00:34:29.360 --> 00:34:32.719
in here. That was I was
wondering about, Like, couldn't think if

472
00:34:32.760 --> 00:34:37.679
we can get Rondo like on the
buyout market or even just like trade.

473
00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:39.920
I think that could be big for
us, like you know, pass and

474
00:34:40.000 --> 00:34:45.239
having a fourth general on the court. You know, thank you for the

475
00:34:45.280 --> 00:34:51.360
phone call. We're just not there
yet. Look after a nightlight tonight,

476
00:34:51.440 --> 00:34:54.679
when everybody was throwing around sweetleew Williams's
name when it came to trades, it's

477
00:34:54.800 --> 00:35:00.519
hard to talk about trades tonight here
on Clippers Talk. Yeah, Rondo maybe

478
00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:04.400
one of those names, George Hill, maybe one of those names. Lonzo

479
00:35:04.519 --> 00:35:07.199
Ball maybe one of those names,
although he's been great the last i think

480
00:35:07.320 --> 00:35:10.239
five or six games for the New
Orleans Pelicans, who are starting to turn

481
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:15.280
things around. I don't know if
that's the answer to everything for the Clippers,

482
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:22.199
and keeping their offense clicked in and
locked in and in rhythm. I

483
00:35:22.280 --> 00:35:24.920
think it's just passing the basketball.
That's been their identity, everybody being that

484
00:35:25.039 --> 00:35:30.039
willing passer out there, because that
means everyone's a threat and they become so

485
00:35:30.280 --> 00:35:36.960
much more difficult to guard. So
I don't know if that point guard narrative

486
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:39.800
that everybody's always been talking about even
before the season began, is the solution

487
00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:44.280
for the Clippers. The solution maybe
in the locker room already. It may

488
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:47.400
be internal and as these guys get
better this season, especially with the way

489
00:35:47.480 --> 00:35:52.559
the bench has been playing. They
had fifty seven points last game, tonight

490
00:35:52.639 --> 00:35:55.800
they had about forty five points.
They've looked like the bench from the last

491
00:35:55.880 --> 00:36:00.559
couple of seasons. Clippers win.
They're eighteen eight ten and four on the

492
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:06.280
road. They're in shy Town taking
on the Bulls Friday tip times at five

493
00:36:06.360 --> 00:36:08.840
pm. We'll have Clippers countdown for
you at four pm before we get out

494
00:36:08.920 --> 00:36:14.519
of here. I do want to
thank the Clippers organization Fox Sports Prime Ticket

495
00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:16.800
for the audio we used post game
with sweet Low Williams. It was Brian

496
00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:25.719
Seamen and Jimmy Jackson on the call. Noah Eagle, Ralph Lawler back here

497
00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:32.519
in the bank, Zach o'caldy,
who likes to video I want to say

498
00:36:32.599 --> 00:36:37.920
videotape, but video phone me.
He likes to stream it when I give

499
00:36:38.000 --> 00:36:42.960
him credit at the very end of
the game, and really likes to put

500
00:36:43.039 --> 00:36:46.079
me on the spot, flashing his
iPhone up while I'm doing this currently right

501
00:36:46.159 --> 00:36:52.039
now, Zack, great job,
there's documented put it on your resume.

502
00:36:52.000 --> 00:36:58.960
That'll get you far. Clippers win
one nineteenth to one twelve in Minnesota over

503
00:36:59.000 --> 00:37:02.400
the Timberwolves. Until Friday with your
pregame shows starting at four pm. I'm

504
00:37:02.440 --> 00:37:04.920
out of Maslin. We'll talk to
you then
