00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:06.200
Time for a postgame. Look,
it's your LA Clippers. This is Clippers

2
00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:09.960
Locker Room, brought to you by
Cedars Sinai, the official health partner of

3
00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:15.080
the LA Clippers, and by Patschonga, official travel casino of the LA Clippers.

4
00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:19.280
Breaking down today's action with the pre
and post game voice. If you're

5
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:23.920
LA Clippers, they're locking in every
game every night. Adam Oslan. The

6
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:29.440
Clippers go into Boston and hand the
Celtics just their second home losses. They

7
00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:35.280
win one fifteenth to ninety six,
and it wasn't even that close. Welcome

8
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:39.159
into your postgame show. I'm Adam
Oslin coming up. We'll have Clippers sock

9
00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:42.920
for you on AM five to seventy. LA Sports eight six six nine eight

10
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:48.039
seven two five seventy eight six six
nine eight seven two five seventy is the

11
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:53.799
phone number. But first let's get
back to Carlo Jimenez in Boston. After

12
00:00:53.880 --> 00:01:00.119
the Clippers win in a root a
route. The Clippers were led by Kawhile

13
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:04.120
with his twenty six and he really
led them early in that first quarter with

14
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:08.760
twelve points in the first twelve minutes. Combine that with the stellar defense and

15
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:11.959
they had the makings for a blowout, and that's what we saw. Carlo.

16
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.879
Yeah, the Clippers were excellent on
the defensive end, Adam. I

17
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:21.040
mean, their best defensive performance this
season on the road in Boston. They

18
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:26.120
were contesting everything. We talked about
it with ty Lou pregame out This Boston

19
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:30.040
team they got fifty three threes last
time, and they were able to really

20
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:33.680
win that game in LA because they
knocked down so many threes. Well,

21
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:37.079
the Clippers were there contesting, they
were in the way, and they made

22
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:41.000
it tough on Boston, made them
shoot off the dribble in terms of the

23
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.040
three point production, which is something
t Lou talked about pregame. He said,

24
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.640
we'll live with them shooting off the
dribble from downtown. It's on the

25
00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:51.200
catch is where they're a lot more
dangerous of a team. I mean,

26
00:01:51.239 --> 00:01:55.439
this is just what more can you
say about this win other than uber impressive

27
00:01:55.599 --> 00:01:59.200
by the Clippers. Wired a wire, They did it all. They held

28
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.200
Boston to the lowest point total this
season, Adam Oslin, and they didn't

29
00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:07.040
shoot the ball well again from the
three point line. The Clippers also ten

30
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:10.080
for forty from three, which I'm
sure people should talk about as much as

31
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:14.319
Boston went ten for forty from three, but it wasn't their night either,

32
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:17.479
but it was their night on the
defensive end of fantastic job for the Clippers

33
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:21.439
in this one well, and the
difference was heading into the fourth quarter.

34
00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:24.960
The Clippers had fifty points in the
paint, the Celtics just twenty eight,

35
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:30.439
and they were shooting under thirty percent
heading into garbage time, which is what

36
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:38.400
the fourth quarter was. Just an
unbelievable Clippers defensive performance like we haven't seen

37
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:40.439
since. I don't know, is
clamp City back. Are we gonna have

38
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:44.479
to get back to that nickname now, Carlow because they brought it with them

39
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.639
to Boston. I mean, you've
talked about it recently at them, but

40
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:51.719
this team, while they've been so
good offensively, being a top five defensive

41
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:54.919
team has eluded them a little bit. But I think this performance shows that,

42
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:58.639
Hey, when the going gets tough, when it gets down to crunch

43
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:00.599
time, when you see those big
names on the other end, this Clipper

44
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:04.960
team they can lock in with the
best of them in the NBA. And

45
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:07.240
that's what they showed tonight. I
mean, the eight blocks and the eight

46
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:13.599
steals, absurd numbers, forcing eleven
turnovers for Boston, but then getting fifteen

47
00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:17.639
points off those turnovers, taking advantage
of opportunities the Clippers clamp city. I

48
00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:22.919
gotta say, Adam, after a
game like this has to be back with

49
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.599
the way they shut down the Celtics, And when you lead by thirty plus,

50
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:30.680
you would expect bigger numbers offensively from
the Clippers, but it was so

51
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:36.360
balanced, and I thought Terrence Man
really had his best game of the season.

52
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:38.560
Early on, you could see it
he had a different level of energy

53
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:43.039
out there. But in that second
quarter he had seven points and also had

54
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:47.240
multiple offensive rebounds leading to second chance
points and three pointers for the Clippers.

55
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:51.000
Yeah. I mean he was an
energizer for this team, Adam. I

56
00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:53.599
go back to that start of the
third quarter where Jason Tatum and seven in

57
00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:55.879
a row and you thought, all
right, here comes Boston's punch, the

58
00:03:55.960 --> 00:04:00.960
coming back in the game. Terrence
Man with some huge offensive rebounds and a

59
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:04.400
putback to kind of pad that Clipper
lead. And I think those effort plays

60
00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:09.479
from guys like Tea Men energizes the
team as a whole because you see his

61
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:13.120
effort, you see the way he's
fighting and all it's got to make his

62
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:16.120
teammates want to do is fight just
as hard. He was excellent today coming

63
00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:21.000
back to Massachusetts and performed in a
big time way fourteen point six rebounds and

64
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:26.360
three assists. I thought he really
played with a little bit of extra felt

65
00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:29.759
like he knew it was homecoming f
him his loan game here in Boston on

66
00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:32.120
the season. It was fun to
watch Terrence Man have a great night for

67
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:38.519
this balanced attack once again for the
Clippers. The Clippers have won twenty seven

68
00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:44.720
of their last thirty four games and
twenty two of their last twenty six since

69
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:47.879
December first. They are flying high. I don't even know if you'll need

70
00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:51.519
a plane going to Cleveland now,
Carloan, with the way the Clippers are

71
00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:56.639
playing, but they will tip off
against the Cleveland Cavaliers, who also are

72
00:04:56.639 --> 00:05:01.160
playing their best basketball of the season
four pm two from Cleveland on Monday.

73
00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:04.759
We'll have your pregame show right back
here starting at three, Carlo, my

74
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:09.560
friend, great call. Even in
the fourth quarter, they were making it

75
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:11.879
tough on you. I know,
with some of the guys that they put

76
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:14.680
out there, not on their Clippers
side, but with the Boston Celtics.

77
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:19.199
Some names we don't normally see because
the Clippers made it inconsequential garbage time.

78
00:05:19.279 --> 00:05:24.279
They win by nineteen, They led
by thirty plus in Boston, and they

79
00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:27.639
win with the final score one to
fifteen to ninety six. Carlo, my

80
00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:30.360
friends say, travels, talk you
on Monday. Thank you, Adam,

81
00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:32.879
can't wait to talk your Monday.
Can the Clippers get another big road win?

82
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:39.079
I don't see why not. The
Clippers with a statement victory in Boston,

83
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:43.079
putting the league on notice if they
weren't already. And you're listening to

Welcome into your post game show.
I'm out of Moslin. Coming up.

88
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:11.560
We'll have Clippers stock on a five
seventy LA Sports eight six six nine

eight seven two five seventy eight six

90
00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:19.920
the phone number. We'll also get
to your final box score. But right

91
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:26.000
now, let's get to those second
half highlights. Please. The Clippers,

92
00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:28.839
Yeah, they had a lead.
At the half, they were up by

93
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:32.560
sixteen. They were playing well,
but then the damn broke in the third

94
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:36.920
quarter and it was Kawhi Leonard leading
them once again. Finds Leonard left the

95
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:40.800
logo and the all white new balances
crosses that were left. They takes it

96
00:06:40.839 --> 00:06:44.600
down the left channel puro It's and
a paint right handed layout. It's perfect.

97
00:06:44.680 --> 00:06:46.920
Leonard on the right wing for the
Clippers dripples left hand into the paint.

98
00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:53.120
Pops freeze frames at home are on
the screen from propably takes it into

99
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:55.720
the paint stops on a hive,
floats Leonard in front of his own bench.

100
00:06:55.959 --> 00:07:00.120
Tend to shoot purots face like us
and with the right hand. Oh

101
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:03.519
that's rude. It's Leonard right out
bow pedals. They're traffic left pendon left

102
00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:10.079
using a little glass, crusses over
twice, steps back on triple perfect.

103
00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:16.399
The dagger is in. Yeah,
a third quarter dagger from Kawhi Leonard and

104
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:21.720
the Clippers. After they led ninety
one to sixty heading into the fourth.

105
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:27.639
I mean only the comeback Clips could
overcome a deficit like that. They would

106
00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:33.360
lead by thirty six points in that
third quarter. Kawhi Leonard had fourteen points

107
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:38.879
in the third after he had just
twelve at the half. The Clippers go

108
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:44.680
on to win by nineteen as it
was inconsequential garbage time in that fourth quarter

109
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:49.360
final score, Clippers won fifteen.
The Boston Celtics, who had lost just

110
00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:55.319
once at home, they were twenty
and one, and the Clippers win one

111
00:07:55.439 --> 00:08:00.959
fifteen to ninety six on the road, their best victory of the season,

112
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:05.040
without a doubt. It's definitive and
we'll talk about it all coming up on

113
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:09.399
Clippers Talk eight six six nine eight
seven two five seventy eight six six ninety

114
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:15.600
seven two five seventy Clippers gotta keep
pushing Cleveland on Monday. We'll get your

115
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:18.279
final box score though, next right
here on Clippers Locker Room on the Los

116
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:24.480
Angeles Clippers Audio Network, the LA
Clippers continue their hunt for a LARRYO.

117
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:26.680
B. They still want to get
that Lario B. Don't miss a moment

118
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:31.320
all season long. This is the
LA Clippers Audio Networks. That's how Boston's

119
00:08:31.320 --> 00:08:37.519
feeling right now. WTF in Boston
after they lose by nineteen to the Clippers

120
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:41.480
at home in a game where the
Clippers led by thirty six and it was

121
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:46.879
over entering the fourth quarter. Perhaps
welcome back into your postgame show. I'm

122
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:56.480
at a Osland after the Clippers just
dismantle the Boston Celtics in unbelievable performance.

123
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:03.879
Clippers win one fifteen to nine.
It was not that close. They only

124
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:07.320
lost the fourth quarter thirty six to
twenty four. Once the backups were in.

125
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.000
Oh, teams are gonna need backup
going up against this Clipper squad.

126
00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:18.879
Kawhi Leonard was twenty six ten to
fifteen shooting last twenty four games. He's

127
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:24.600
at fifty eight percent from the field
and fifty percent from downtown. When I

128
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:28.559
told you James Harden was gonna unlock
the best version of two to one three,

129
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:35.039
I didn't lie. Paul George just
needed seventeen. He was still a

130
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:37.120
plus twenty three out there. James
Harden was two for eleven, all of

131
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.639
six from three. Still led them
in the plus minus category. He was

132
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:46.480
a plus thirty six. Their biggest
lead was thirty six. How about team

133
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.399
man a plus twenty seven, had
fourteen points, six of twelve shooting,

134
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:56.559
and some key boards when they were
making their run, offensive rebounds, hustle

135
00:09:56.639 --> 00:10:03.000
plays. Clippers getting out and running
and ran the Boston Celtics off the floor.

136
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:07.320
Jason Tatum had twenty one to lead
them. They only had two other

137
00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:11.080
players in double figures, and they
were backups coming off the bench, and

138
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:16.360
we're doing most of their scoring in
that fourth quarter on real performance. Maybe

139
00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:18.799
go so long talking about it that
we lost the song. We'll take a

140

mode, Adam Ostley, how about
a Boston massacre in favor of the Clippers.

154
00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:33.519
They led by as many as thirty
six and they win one fifteen to

155
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:39.039
ninety six over the Celtics in Boston
where they were twenty and one at home.

156

162

You'll hear from t Man and Coach
Lou postgame best win of the season period.

163
00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:18.279
Did I mention the Clippers were on
the second night of a back to

164
00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:22.600
back. They just played in Toronto. They won by twenty last night.

165
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:26.919
They weren't supposed to win this game. If you looked at some of the

166
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:31.799
lines. Boston was heavily favored.
They just blew out Miami in Miami.

167
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:39.519
They have one loss at home.
They were twenty and one at home,

168
00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:48.120
and the Clippers dissected and dismantled them. They made them look like they belonged

169
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:52.759
on a lower tier. I've been
talking about how good Boston has been all

170
00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:56.440
season long, and they looked like
the best team in the league. They

171
00:12:56.480 --> 00:13:00.120
were second in offense, second in
defense, first and net rating heading in

172
00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:03.960
this game. On the season,
they were thirty five and ten, now

173
00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:11.480
thirty five and eleven. As the
Clippers just continue to improve their record.

174
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:16.759
They're thirty and fourteen now and they're
climbing up the Western Conference standings. More

175
00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:22.759
on that coming up. But I
thought this game started the right way,

176
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.600
and that means the ball was in
the hands of Kawhi Leonard early and often

177
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:31.440
we're in that first quarter, in
the first twelve minutes, when you know

178
00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:35.879
it's a big game, regular season, playoffs, Kawhi Leonard is gonna show

179
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:41.879
up. He had twelve points on
five of six shooting in the first twelve

180
00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:50.519
minutes and Boston couldn't hit anything.
Both teams ended up shooting just ten to

181
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:56.440
fourteen, ten to forty from the
outside, including the Clippers, wasn't necessarily

182
00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:00.559
the difference in the ball game.
It was the Clippers getting sixty four points

183
00:14:00.559 --> 00:14:03.679
in the paint, making up for
the fact they weren't knocking them down from

184
00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:09.399
three. But in the first quarter, Clippers were two of eight from the

185
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:15.000
outside, Boston two of twelve,
but the Celtics were seven for twenty six

186
00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:20.639
overall, that's twenty seven percent.
Some of it, yeah, shooting variants

187
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:26.799
off night, a lot of it. Clippers defense, even without Big Zoo,

188
00:14:28.159 --> 00:14:33.240
that starting five was on a different
level. They only shot ten of

189
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:37.240
twenty two from the field in the
first quarter. It was mostly all Kawhi

190
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:43.080
Leonard. He had twelve of their
twenty six points. Through the first twelve

191
00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:46.320
minutes. They led just twenty six
to twenty one. Heading into the second,

192
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:50.159
I thought to myself, they should
be up more, they should be

193
00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:54.600
up double digits. Boston can't hit
anything. They were shooting like stormtroopers.

194
00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:01.960
The Clippers weren't taking advantage of it. Oh boy would they eventually in the

195
00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:07.159
second Terrence Man, Terrence Man,
tell me again he shouldn't be in the

196
00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:11.960
starting lineup. Tell me, tell
me James Harden shouldn't be on this team

197
00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:18.000
or be starting over. Russell Westbrook
tell me that please man was awesome.

198
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:24.039
A lamp at the rim in the
first, a dunk in the second quarter,

199
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:31.000
went at Derek White, hit a
three point to the end of the

200
00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:35.360
second quarter, had an offensive rebound, and you're gonna kick out to PG

201
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:41.679
from three, I believe. Then
a tipping off, a Kawhi miss in

202
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:45.600
the third, a dunk in the
third that put him up twenty four,

203
00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:52.360
and the floodgates were opening, and
the Boston Celtics that damn was not strong

204
00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:56.120
enough. They couldn't hold back this
Clippers team, this offense, and they

205
00:15:56.159 --> 00:16:00.159
couldn't get anything on them on the
other end. Defensively, the Clippers showed

206
00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:07.519
up. They put it together for
every quarter. That was consequential. When

207
00:16:07.559 --> 00:16:11.679
you're up thirty plus heading into the
fourth and you don't have to play your

208
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:15.720
starters anymore. I'm not going to
hold it against them that they only won

209
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:19.960
by nineteen. The game was over
in the third. It was a Kawhi

210
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:25.480
Leonard three pointer. And you know
what, let's hear this mix from Kawhi

211
00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:27.799
in the third quarter, because after
having twelve points in the first quarter.

212
00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:32.360
He went scoreless in the second.
Clippers still led by sixteen at the half,

213
00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:37.080
and they closed the half on an
eight to two run, doing things

214
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:41.360
the right way, building the right
championship habits. And then in the third

215
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:47.639
quarter Kawhi Leonard detonated. Finds Leonard
left the logo and the all white two

216
00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:49.720
balances, crosses over left. They
takes it down the left channel Purot's and

217
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:53.200
a paint right handed layout. It
is perfect. Leonard on the right wing

218
00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:59.039
or the Clippers dripples left hand into
the paint. Pops and freeze frames at

219
00:16:59.039 --> 00:17:02.600
home are on the screen from promptly
takes it into the Peyton stops on an

220
00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:04.319
ive. Quotes Leonard in front of
his own bench. Tend to shoot heuro

221
00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:10.680
wet faceline noss and with the right
hand. Oh that's rude, Leonard right

222
00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:15.440
obow pedals. They're traffic left tended
left using a little glass, crosses over

223
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:22.599
twice, steps back on triple perfect. The dagger is in. The dagger

224
00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:29.759
was in in the third. It
was over Kenny Smith at the Dunk contest

225
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:34.359
in two thousand with Vince Carter.
It's over ladies and gentlemen. Kawhi Leonard

226
00:17:34.359 --> 00:17:41.519
had a spin move in there on
Peyton pressure where he would then dunk on

227
00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:48.400
half the Boston Celtics team. Dunk
of the season from Kawhi, And if

228
00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:52.359
you didn't know he had fully recovered
off the ACL, you better know by

229
00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:59.519
now last twenty four games. Kawhi
Leonard is it. Fifty eight percent from

230
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:07.880
the field and fifty percent from three. You will not find better stretches in

231
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:11.240
NBA history than what Kawhi Leonard is
doing right now. This is the best

232
00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:15.079
he's ever played in the regular season. And I know he doesn't care about

233
00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:19.000
getting snubbed and not being a starter
in the West in the All Star Game,

234
00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:26.240
but damn it, when you're a
top seventy five player ever and you're

235
00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:32.599
having the best regular season of your
career, you probably should be when your

236
00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:37.759
team is this hot and individually you're
doing things like this. So I'll say

237
00:18:37.799 --> 00:18:42.200
it for him, because Kawhi lets
his play do the talking and backs it

238
00:18:42.319 --> 00:18:47.880
up each in every night out there. But when the games get bigger,

239
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:53.319
the spotlight gets brighter. Not too
bright for him to quote what Jared Allen

240
00:18:53.400 --> 00:18:56.440
said last year against the Knicks and
the playoffs, where the Clippers will be

241
00:18:56.440 --> 00:19:03.039
in Cleveland taking on the Cavaliers on
Monday. Kawhi Leonard in that third,

242
00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:07.920
though with fourteen points, he didn't
score in the second. He comes out

243
00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:11.839
and has a spinning layup, then
a long outlet pass to PG for a

244
00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:18.680
dunk, a Kawhi jumper, and
then that dunk. That dunk spinning around

245
00:19:18.799 --> 00:19:22.680
Peyton Pritchard. How dare they put
Peyton Pritchard on Kawhi Leonard. Then he

246
00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:27.039
had a block on the other end, and then the three point dagger put

247
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:33.440
him up thirty five. It is
ov even when the Clippers came back down

248
00:19:33.519 --> 00:19:37.480
thirty five, second biggest comeback in
this history of the league in the regular

249
00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:41.079
season in DC a couple of seasons
ago, they weren't down that much heading

250
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:47.160
into the fourth. It might have
been seventeen or eighteen. Nobody is coming

251
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:52.640
back down that big, even in
today's league. Or offense, well,

252
00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:56.960
you're leaning into it in the three
point shooting, but again the Clippers,

253
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:03.119
they were ten to forty from the
outid. It's another game where they didn't

254
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:08.240
play their best offensively, they weren't
having their most efficient night. It was

255
00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:14.400
the defense. You hold a team
to thirty nine points at the half.

256
00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:22.119
That's insane in today's league, and
it's the Boston Celtics on their home floor.

257
00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:26.920
I know Christas wasn't playing. He
ain't compensating for this much of a

258
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:33.880
blowout. Clippers still without They're big
man in Big Zoo. Two of the

259
00:20:33.920 --> 00:20:37.880
top three rim protectors were out of
the game, but it was the Clippers

260
00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:44.440
taking advantage of that points in the
paint. They have scored two hundred and

261
00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:48.720
two points in the paint over their
last three games, and their last two

262
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:56.880
they haven't shot it well from three. It doesn't matter. This team is

263
00:20:56.920 --> 00:21:03.200
on one of those special runs,
not just best run in the history of

264
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:06.759
the Clippers franchise in the regular season. With the way they're playing, they've

265
00:21:06.799 --> 00:21:12.200
never reached heights like this before.
This is an all time run for any

266
00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:21.000
team. You win twenty seven of
thirty four and are stomping on some of

267
00:21:21.000 --> 00:21:25.599
the best teams in the league on
Boston's home floor. It's not like they

268
00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:29.519
were on a back to back.
They were prepared, they were ready.

269
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.680
Yeah, they missed some open looks
they typically knocked down. I don't know

270
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:40.279
if it would have bettered Clippers.
Team is special age six six nine,

271

Lenny and Ingle would to start things off

272
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:48.880
here on Clippers Stop without a Males
and eight Lenny. Wow, So what

273
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:52.160
happened today? Man? I was, what's what's what's going on? What's

274
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:57.160
what's going on? What's going on? What's going Well, if you're a

275
00:21:57.160 --> 00:22:03.039
Boston fan, your pet's heads are
falling off. I guess I am stop.

276
00:22:03.240 --> 00:22:07.359
I just wanted a win. I
just wanted us to win. The

277
00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:11.160
fact that we did it like that, bruh. I just I mean,

278
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:14.720
now, Adam, I met your
question. Were you at the game?

279
00:22:14.799 --> 00:22:18.640
Are you are you? Are you
in l a full disclosure, I'm in

280
00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:22.920
the bank, Carlo was the scene? Okay? Cool? Cool? Because

281
00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:26.559
I mean there's something that I just
didn't How does that happen? Man?

282
00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:32.880
That that was phenomenal. I mean
they won. PG played an average game,

283
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:37.799
Russ played a very average game.
Hardened directed traffic, but in terms

284
00:22:37.839 --> 00:22:41.799
of scoring, not the and these
cats. I mean that D the D

285
00:22:42.079 --> 00:22:47.599
was there. But man, I
don't. I'm I'm I'm you said.

286
00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:51.680
You hit on all the points,
the fact that you know people who have

287
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:56.799
a vote and are not and to
make the mistake of not putting Kawhi Leonard

288
00:22:56.799 --> 00:23:00.319
in that, in that in that
conversation with m VP our fools. Hey,

289
00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:10.279
hey there's one award that Kawhi Leonard
wants. And yeah, but like

290
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:15.519
I said, like h like I
want it all sock shoes and draws I

291
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:19.279
want and Noah probably get a six
Man of the Year. TYLERU deserves Coach

292
00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:23.319
of the Year. We want we
want to Larry Oby and and Kawhi deserves

293
00:23:23.400 --> 00:23:26.920
m VP. Man, there's no
other I can't I can't even see another

294
00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:33.720
player doing what he's doing. Man, It's it's just phenomenal. I you

295
00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:37.759
know, I I'm I'm running,
you know, MS run out of access.

296
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:41.119
Ronald Wurtz proches because but just phenomenal
performance. Man. I love the

297
00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:45.079
fact that I think Tyler said set
the standard, set the bar high when

298
00:23:45.119 --> 00:23:48.960
he said I expect six and one, five and two at the worst.

299
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:55.039
And and these cats are stepping up. And Daniel Tye so so nice coming

300
00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:56.920
back, coming coming back to the
to the you know, to the spot

301
00:23:59.519 --> 00:24:07.279
Derek White was disrespectful in the first
half. He looked at him afterwards speak

302
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:11.400
on him and the bucket in transition
defense to offense that was the name of

303
00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:15.839
the game tonight, Lenny, absolutely
man. And then Harden got t Man

304
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:19.559
going with that, with that uh, with that one handed dunk where I

305
00:24:19.559 --> 00:24:22.400
thought it was gonna be a lay
up, and he changed, he changed,

306
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:25.559
he changed direction and put it that
that team to get t Man going,

307
00:24:25.559 --> 00:24:30.200
and he gave him another pass.
But Harden is you know, he's

308
00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:32.240
worth his weight in gold Man.
So as far as I can tell,

309
00:24:32.480 --> 00:24:34.119
I wish, I wish I was
a close friend of Steve Barba, because

310
00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:37.480
I don't Eve must feel like Bryan
people Ferrari's right now, because this this

311
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:41.720
is a phenomenal man. He's just
this he he he finally, he's finally

312
00:24:41.799 --> 00:24:47.960
it's paying dividends. Man. And
he he's the best coach in the all

313
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:52.880
sports. Him and his wife are
phenomenal in terms of philanthropy. I couldn't

314
00:24:52.880 --> 00:24:55.400
be happy for happy for him,
man. I I've never been happy for

315
00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:59.000
a billionaire in my life, but
my multimeanter. But listen, man,

316
00:24:59.079 --> 00:25:02.839
we we're clipping is due. Let's
just keep doing this thing, man,

317
00:25:03.240 --> 00:25:06.319
And yeah, then you keep doing
your thing to Adam. Awesome, awesome

318
00:25:06.359 --> 00:25:08.759
night all the way around, all
right, Lenny, Well, not many

319
00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:15.599
billionaires seem as down to earth as
Steve Balmer is. That's the difference.

320
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:22.200
He's a fan, He's passionate.
He empowers the right people to take care

321
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:29.720
of the basketball stuff. And this
is the result. Clippers led by as

322
00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:33.599
many as thirty six in Boston.
The game was over in the third quarter

323
00:25:34.200 --> 00:25:37.759
after at one point the Clippers were
on a twenty one to oh run.

324
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:41.759
I'm might have to check if they
extended that. I didn't think that was

325
00:25:41.799 --> 00:25:44.880
possible. I didn't think they could
outdo the twenty two to oh run they

326
00:25:44.920 --> 00:25:49.359
had at the end of the game
against Brooklyn. We did it against Boston.

327
00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:57.640
Clippers win one, fifteen to ninety
six. All right, this is

328
00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:10.680
Lenny's song us at all Clippers two
and zero two games in to this grammy

329
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:18.400
road trip Cleveland in Cleveland on Monday, we'll talk about that. We'll go

330
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:22.160
through some more highlights from this ball
game. You'll hear from Terrence Man and

331
00:26:22.200 --> 00:26:25.480
Coach Loop post game. You're listening
to Clippers hockey here on m five to

332
00:26:25.480 --> 00:26:29.640
seventy LA Sports. They want to
bring a banner with them to the into

333
00:26:29.680 --> 00:26:34.880
it. Don more LA Clippers basketball
on the LA Clippers Audio Network. Still

334
00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:38.920
waiting for James Harden to ruin this
team. Russell Westbrook as well. I

335
00:26:38.920 --> 00:26:48.880
guess I don't know, basketball experts
maybe didn't know what the hell they were

336
00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:56.319
talking about. Clippers winning Boston one
fifteen to ninety six over the Celtics,

337
00:26:56.880 --> 00:27:02.640
sending them to just their second home
loss. Welcome back in the clipperstock.

338
00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:07.279
I'm ota Oslin eight six six nine
eight seven two five seventy eight six six

339
00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:10.319
nine eight seven two five seventy is
the phone number if you'd like to get

340
00:27:10.359 --> 00:27:15.119
on. Let's start with another guy
from Inglewood, the other end of the

341
00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:18.720
coin here the other side, Sean
at Inglewood. Hey, Sean, how

342
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:22.720
you doing? How I'm doing fine? How you doing? You know?

343
00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:29.599
This is so this is so sweet
because I was at the Clipper game that

344
00:27:29.880 --> 00:27:34.319
Saturday when Boston shelaxed them by thirty
seven, and they did it without Kawhi,

345
00:27:34.559 --> 00:27:40.400
of course, but and the Clippers
were just dead tire from they were

346
00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:44.039
playing so many games, but and
had won so many in a row,

347
00:27:44.079 --> 00:27:48.039
and then the nine game winning streak
went and so I'm just saying, this

348
00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:52.240
was just so beautiful. I wanted
that twenty point lead at halftime. We

349
00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:59.400
almost got it. And I'll tell
you, they just really interrupted everything that

350
00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:04.319
Boston was trying to do. And
you can see psychologically that Boston knew that

351
00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:08.599
day they were being outclass tonight.
And it was just such a beautiful thing

352
00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:14.160
to watch. And I still got
my bibblehead from the game then, and

353
00:28:14.680 --> 00:28:18.200
I was so disappointing. So I'm
just glad that we got our revenge.

354
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:22.240
And I think Terence Man probably played
one of the best games he's played in

355
00:28:22.240 --> 00:28:26.440
a long time. Yeah, I
thought it was best game of the season

356
00:28:26.480 --> 00:28:32.119
from him, right, And then
even your point that you made, the

357
00:28:32.119 --> 00:28:36.599
Clippers weren't really killing them offensively.
They were missing their threes too, and

358
00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:40.039
certain things just you know, there
were some lows in the game, and

359
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:44.640
you know this was not the best
game in the world for Westbrook. But

360
00:28:44.960 --> 00:28:48.880
still no, they just dominated them. And then they could dominate a team

361
00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:56.359
defensively and offensively. That's really really
good. The Clippers only had eight turnovers

362
00:28:56.359 --> 00:29:00.960
in the ball game. That can
help you overcome a lot. That's how

363
00:29:00.000 --> 00:29:04.039
you win the possession battle. Boston
only had eleven, but the Clippers made

364
00:29:04.079 --> 00:29:11.960
him pay every time. They had
fifteen points off of the celtics eleven turnovers.

365
00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:19.839
And just the force they played with
in transition, just bull China shop

366
00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:27.880
type of stuff. The Clippers had
the horns out. It was nasty,

367
00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:33.359
and I thought Terrence Man contributed a
lot there. Look, Russell Westbrook didn't

368
00:29:33.359 --> 00:29:38.359
have a good ball game at all. He really struggled, and when he

369
00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:42.839
was missing those layups and he just
missed far too many at the basket.

370
00:29:44.279 --> 00:29:48.240
Gotta be cleaned up. But it's
an off night. It happens. But

371
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:51.559
that's how Boston. That's really the
only way Boston was getting free points.

372
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:56.799
All those layups you miss him,
the opposition's going the other way. It's

373
00:29:56.839 --> 00:30:02.279
a live ball turnover, basically.
And it doesn't even matter that he has

374
00:30:02.319 --> 00:30:11.759
that game. Russ finished just two
of nine, four points. But when

375
00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:18.000
you're playing defense to this level,
when you're digging your heels in and then

376
00:30:18.039 --> 00:30:26.839
also staying in front of your man
and rebounding like this where they had fifty

377
00:30:26.000 --> 00:30:30.519
eight boers to Boston having fifty three. So a lot of misshots out there.

378
00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:36.799
But I talked about my keys to
victory. The Clippers got outworked by

379
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:41.640
Boston at home a month ago.
Boston beat them to all the fifty to

380
00:30:41.680 --> 00:30:47.160
fifty balls they made the hustle plays. It wasn't just the fact they knocked

381
00:30:47.160 --> 00:30:49.599
down twenty five to three pointers on
fifty three attempts, where tonight they were

382
00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:53.720
ten to forty from the outside.
They look like they outworked the Clippers in

383
00:30:53.799 --> 00:31:00.480
that game tonight exact opposite Don and
Woodland Hill Don, what's up here on

384
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:04.240
Clipper staff for that of Miles and
my man? What's up? Hey?

385
00:31:04.319 --> 00:31:10.240
What's going on to hey? Hey? Great win? Statement win tonight?

386
00:31:10.319 --> 00:31:14.599
Man, it was beautiful basketball being
played. I couldn't be happier as a

387
00:31:14.599 --> 00:31:18.880
Cliffs fan to see these guys execute
the way they did. Again, like

388
00:31:18.960 --> 00:31:25.759
I said, defense is the identity
of this team. You saw a leap

389
00:31:25.880 --> 00:31:33.000
defense being played throughout the game,
interrupted to passing lanes, active hands leading

390
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:38.720
to transition points, fifteen, eighteen, twenty point leads. And I just

391
00:31:38.759 --> 00:31:44.400
want to take a second to talk
about Terrence Man. I mean, I

392
00:31:44.400 --> 00:31:48.319
already knew Terrence Man was the key
to all of this. We know that,

393
00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:52.640
we know that Kawhi, we know
Paul George, we know that you

394
00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:55.359
know Russ and James is gonna do
what they do. But Tee Man is

395
00:31:55.359 --> 00:31:59.279
really the key. I've been known
that since last year I mean when he

396
00:31:59.359 --> 00:32:01.799
became a star. Hey, hey, you gotta tell me, you gotta

397
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:07.240
tell me. I think Terrence Man
now in the starting lineup, they are

398
00:32:07.920 --> 00:32:12.720
thirty eight and eleven. Going back
to last season when he's in the starting

399
00:32:12.759 --> 00:32:15.920
lineup, I've been one of his
biggest advocates. Don, I'm glad you're

400
00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:19.279
with it too, so I have
on. Yeah, man, he played

401
00:32:19.279 --> 00:32:22.799
about two three games as a starter. I thought trying to you know,

402
00:32:22.839 --> 00:32:24.680
gave him the keys. Obviously if
we picked up rest last year and that

403
00:32:24.799 --> 00:32:29.759
kind of interrupted the flow. But
yes, him as a starter, man,

404
00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:34.480
it's truly the key to all of
this. Obviously helped, But yes,

405
00:32:34.559 --> 00:32:37.039
man, I'm just so happy for
this. Playing to night go clips

406
00:32:37.599 --> 00:32:42.960
preod clips. I appreciate it.
Don Theresa the phone call eight sixty six

407
00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:47.839
nine eight seven two five seventy.
People don't understand. They look at the

408
00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:51.119
box score where Terrence Man, They're
like, oh, what he had like

409
00:32:51.160 --> 00:32:55.559
eight points? How much could he
really affect the game? You don't know

410
00:32:55.640 --> 00:33:00.200
ball, you don't get it.
You don't understand, is being asked of

411
00:33:00.359 --> 00:33:06.119
him next to three Hall of famers
in the starting lineup with Russ. It

412
00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:10.599
just didn't work too many ball dominant
guys, too many guys that need the

413
00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:16.279
ball in their hands to be effective. Terrence Man's a connector out there and

414
00:33:16.359 --> 00:33:22.680
still making those Russ hustle plays,
getting boards, and also a better small

415
00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:30.319
ball screener, better cutter to the
basket overall, and the much bigger threat

416
00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:36.480
from the outside. Stand down Russ
fans. He's doing his thing off the

417
00:33:36.519 --> 00:33:40.640
bench. The role works. It's
great the way he has sacrificed and embraced

418
00:33:40.680 --> 00:33:46.400
his new role. I love it. But this is the right configuration with

419
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:51.160
the starting lineup. This is what
you need. A guy who doesn't need

420
00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:52.720
to take a lot of shots next
to I don't know, James Harden,

421
00:33:52.920 --> 00:33:59.799
Paul George and Kawhi Leonard. I
asked for it right away. I said

422
00:33:59.799 --> 00:34:02.680
it. It's not gonna work to
have Russ and James Harden in the starting

423
00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:09.960
backcourt. It didn't. Terrence Man
fits in seamlessly and had fourteen on six

424
00:34:10.000 --> 00:34:15.199
of twelve, shooting, six boards, three assists, but three offensive rebounds.

425
00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:22.000
It's the little things you need guys
scrapping out there well. The superstars

426
00:34:22.159 --> 00:34:28.880
can soak up more of the shots
and more of the attempts. That is

427
00:34:28.920 --> 00:34:32.440
how you get this juggernaut that has
won twenty seven of their last thirty four

428
00:34:32.480 --> 00:34:37.480
games since they injected Terrence Man into
the starting lineup. Mitch in New Jersey,

429
00:34:38.039 --> 00:34:43.440
Mitch, what's up? You're on
Clipper sock Adam? How are you

430
00:34:43.480 --> 00:34:45.119
doing today? Eh? Great?
I call all the time. We'll win

431
00:34:45.199 --> 00:34:49.559
every time. We should play both
all the time. This way I can

432
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:52.840
see the bench, all the bench. The young guys get a chance to

433
00:34:52.880 --> 00:35:00.239
play because it's hard, especially that
four whole team here MVP for Kawhi Lennon

434
00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:04.840
and I think I think the club's
gonna get the first seat if we win.

435
00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:07.079
I think it'd be uh Kawi would
be the first player ever to have

436
00:35:07.119 --> 00:35:12.719
three championships from three different teams.
Well, well, there is this guy

437
00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:15.760
named Lebron James. There is this
guy named Lebron James. I don't know

438
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:17.800
if you've heard of him. Oh
I forgot How about him? Oh?

439
00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:22.800
I forgot it. I wish he
had known that the Clip is playing LA

440
00:35:22.920 --> 00:35:25.000
too. Maybe we're in the Clipper. You know what it was? It

441
00:35:25.079 --> 00:35:29.400
five years? That means with the
Lakers now match were moving on? Maybe

442
00:35:29.559 --> 00:35:32.320
do it? No? We moving
on? Okay, all right, we'll

443
00:35:32.360 --> 00:35:36.000
get well we'll get him back on
Monday too. We got it. We

444
00:35:36.079 --> 00:35:37.960
got a streak out. Yeah,
gonna be tough in Cleveland. This would

445
00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:43.519
be a good one, very very
d team. We guy, we were

446
00:35:43.599 --> 00:35:46.079
opping. Thanks for the cool,
all right, I appreciate the phone call,

447
00:35:46.159 --> 00:35:51.400
Mitch missing New Jersey. There.
We'll take a quick time out,

448
00:35:51.440 --> 00:35:54.440
but before we do, let's pause
ten seconds for station identification. Here on

station. The Clippers blow out the
Celtics in Boston. They led by as

452
00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:15.800
many as thirty six. The game
was over by the third quarter and they

453
00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:19.000
win one, fifteen to ninety six. I will update you on the Western

454
00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:23.199
Conference standings coming up. We're gonna
hear from the head coach and Terrence Man,

455
00:36:24.320 --> 00:36:30.000
Man of the hour. His best
game of the season impact wise.

456
00:36:30.039 --> 00:36:35.800
I don't think it was points wise. Who cares winning plays wise doing that

457
00:36:36.039 --> 00:36:40.360
Pat Bev stuff that he used to
do. And a lot of you gave

458
00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:44.599
up on Terrence Man. He's in
a shooting funk. What's the difference between

459
00:36:44.679 --> 00:36:49.039
him and Russ. Yeah. Well, uh, Terrence Man shooting fifty three

460
00:36:49.079 --> 00:36:53.039
percent from three in the month of
January. Now, I think he turned

461
00:36:53.039 --> 00:36:57.679
it around. As predicted, More
Clippers sock next year. On a five

Clippers basketball. You're listening to the
LA Clippers on the LA Clippers Audio Network.

464
00:37:10.119 --> 00:37:14.960
Clippers win in Boston, it'll blow
out. They led by thirty six,

465
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:19.320
they win by nineteen. Final score
one fifteen to ninety six over the

466
00:37:19.360 --> 00:37:22.639
Celtics. Welcome back in. You're
listening to a five seventy LA Sports.

467
00:37:22.679 --> 00:37:28.920
This is Clippers sack. I'm out
a Moslin complete domination by the Clippers,

468
00:37:30.599 --> 00:37:35.719
and I love looking at lineup data. Some people think it's too advanced.

469
00:37:35.800 --> 00:37:42.280
I would say it's kind of the
core of basketball. It's the five guys

470
00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:49.960
out there playing and usually the best
five for a stretch of time wins you

471
00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:54.440
the ball game. And that's what
That's what was the case in this situation

472
00:37:54.599 --> 00:37:59.320
in Boston where in seventeen minutes and
thirty four seconds, the starting lineup of

473
00:37:59.360 --> 00:38:02.480
the Clippers with Mason Plumbley in for
Big Zoo with James Harden Necks to PG

474
00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:07.159
Terrence Man and Kawhi Leonard. They
were a plus twenty five and seventeen minutes.

475
00:38:08.199 --> 00:38:12.960
I think they were plus twenty four
and seventeen in Toronto yesterday. Yes,

476
00:38:13.039 --> 00:38:15.119
the Clippers did this on the second
night of a back to back.

477
00:38:16.280 --> 00:38:21.960
That's what won them the game.
The starters, second best lineup that played

478
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:25.519
two minutes and forty two seconds Hardennecks
to Norman Palomere Coffee, Terrence Man and

479
00:38:25.599 --> 00:38:31.119
Daniel Tice. They were a plus
seven. Oh, Daniel Tice, he

480
00:38:31.320 --> 00:38:37.599
had something. Dt had something for
the Boston Celtics. Three you to start

481
00:38:37.639 --> 00:38:42.599
the second quarter. That was big
to start to open things up. He

482
00:38:42.719 --> 00:38:45.320
was fouled on a and one.
He would miss the free throw, but

483
00:38:45.119 --> 00:38:51.800
the block he had that led to
a James harden layup in transition. The

484
00:38:51.840 --> 00:38:58.760
block he had on Derek White just
a lot of authority, Eric Cartman like

485
00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:04.119
authority on that block. It was
a lot of force from Daniel Ties,

486
00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:07.840
who in the game had three blocks
against his former team. The Clippers combined

487
00:39:08.679 --> 00:39:16.440
verse sixteen steals in blocks against Boston
eight steals, eight blocks. That's the

488
00:39:16.519 --> 00:39:21.280
type of stuff I was talking about. Mike Keys to victory, hustle,

489
00:39:21.320 --> 00:39:27.800
plays little things defense. I think
last time they combined for just six or

490
00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:32.000
eight in the blowout at Crypto when
they didn't have Kawhi Leonard. And what

491
00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:36.960
a difference a day makes, a
claw makes. Kawhi Leonard in twenty nine

492
00:39:36.960 --> 00:39:42.719
minutes, Yeah, he played less
than he did yesterday against Toronto. He

493
00:39:42.760 --> 00:39:47.079
played thirty one because the Clippers blow
him out. Twenty nine minutes, twenty

494
00:39:47.119 --> 00:39:53.039
six points, had twelve of those
in the first quarter, fourteen of them

495
00:39:53.519 --> 00:39:59.239
in the third, didn't have to
play in the fourth, didn't have to

496
00:39:59.239 --> 00:40:00.760
score in the second, and they
still led by sixty and a half.

497
00:40:02.199 --> 00:40:07.199
Tremendous performance by your Los Angeles Clippers. Let's hear from coach Lou post game

498
00:40:07.880 --> 00:40:15.280
after they win one fifteen to ninety
six in Boston over the Celtics. Overall,

499
00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:19.280
I just thought defensively, we just
did some good things of just trying

500
00:40:19.280 --> 00:40:22.599
to keep you know, little Jay
off balance, blitzing them, switching,

501
00:40:22.719 --> 00:40:24.800
firing, not let them get comfortable
with the same thing with Jalen, you

502
00:40:24.840 --> 00:40:28.519
know, just trying to keep them
off guard because they're great players, they're

503
00:40:28.559 --> 00:40:31.480
great scores, and I thought we
did a good job, Like I said

504
00:40:32.800 --> 00:40:37.119
Dan Craig boc in Jeremy, you
know, Dante just with the prep Jaylor

505
00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:40.119
and Naga, just trying to keep
his team off balanced because they're so high

506
00:40:40.159 --> 00:40:44.719
hired as far as scoring. And
we did a good job just making adjustments

507
00:40:44.719 --> 00:40:49.559
and changing and we did some good
things. So when the game was somewhat

508
00:40:49.599 --> 00:40:55.599
still in doubt through three quarters,
as coach Lou's crediting the defense there rightfully.

509
00:40:55.639 --> 00:41:04.599
So through three quarters, the Boston
Celtics were shooting twenty nine point seven

510
00:41:04.679 --> 00:41:10.639
percent from the field. They were
six of thirty from three. That is

511
00:41:10.679 --> 00:41:15.639
a crazy number, especially in today's
NBA, especially from this Boston team,

512
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:20.679
especially because they were at home.
They've had the second best offense in the

513
00:41:20.719 --> 00:41:24.519
league this season. This isn't some
team that's just a defensive juggernaut and they

514
00:41:24.519 --> 00:41:30.360
get their offense where they can.
Minnesota's more like that Boston Celtics doing on

515
00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:38.440
both ends, and the Clippers just
destroyed them, holding the team under thirty

516
00:41:38.480 --> 00:41:44.039
percent through three quarters. I joked
with Carlow midway through the second like,

517
00:41:44.119 --> 00:41:46.159
yeah, you can't hold a team
down under thirty percent for too long.

518
00:41:46.360 --> 00:41:53.719
Clippers did it for thirty six minutes. Impressive stuff, Mark and hints and

519
00:41:53.800 --> 00:41:58.960
beach. Mark, you're on clipperstock
for out of Mauslin. Well, here

520
00:41:59.000 --> 00:42:01.880
we go again. We gotta make
this our theme intro song when we have

521
00:42:02.000 --> 00:42:10.400
games like this. No we don't, Mark, Why don't you sing it

522
00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:14.239
for me instead? Because it's not
coming through very well on the radio.

523
00:42:15.280 --> 00:42:22.800
Oh okay, I can do that. Dum dumb. Another one, bum

524
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:29.440
dumb dumb. Another one. Yeah, another one's gone, and another one's

525
00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:35.559
gone another one. Oh all right, I like it. Mark. Oh,

526
00:42:35.679 --> 00:42:40.719
we got dueling a cappella singers tonight
here with parody songs. I guess

527
00:42:40.760 --> 00:42:45.360
that one wasn't. It's just so
fitting with what the Clippers have been doing.

528
00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:46.920
Thank you for the phone call,
Mark, because Morris and Long Beach

529
00:42:47.039 --> 00:42:52.039
also on the line. More are
you singing tonight too? Well, I'm

530
00:42:52.039 --> 00:43:00.960
a believe. I'm a believer,
said, I'm a believe. Yeah,

531
00:43:01.000 --> 00:43:06.400
man, this is the worst radio
I have ever heard. Short and sweet

532
00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:10.960
there, Thank goodness. Morris in
Long Beach. After the Clippers win big

533
00:43:12.199 --> 00:43:15.880
in Boston, Morris called it yesterday. He said they would Terrence man,

534
00:43:16.559 --> 00:43:21.239
Terrence Man, I'm gonna say behind
Kawhi Leonard Second most important player tonight for

535
00:43:21.280 --> 00:43:24.000
the Clippers. Paul George of course
had his moments and the fact that he

536
00:43:24.079 --> 00:43:30.000
gave it a go dealing with this
left groin injury, and coach Slew said

537
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:34.360
postgame he came out healthy, so
hopefully he's good to go Monday. But

538
00:43:34.599 --> 00:43:38.159
a jumper over our Horford to start
from PG thirteen, I think those were

539
00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:42.639
the first two points of the game. A three at the end near the

540
00:43:42.760 --> 00:43:45.440
end of the second quarter with about
two minutes left. That was big when

541
00:43:45.440 --> 00:43:49.480
they were going through that run.
And then he hit another one after the

542
00:43:49.559 --> 00:43:55.320
Terrence Man offensive rebound heading into the
half. So some timely buckets from Paul

543
00:43:55.400 --> 00:44:00.000
George, even though he only ended
up with seventeen five of eleven, shooting

544
00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:02.360
three of six from the outside,
seventeen points in twenty two minutes. Do

545
00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:07.559
you like that? So they were
able to keep the minutes down. Not

546
00:44:07.159 --> 00:44:12.039
a starter for the Clippers, had
to play more than twenty nine. Kawhi

547
00:44:12.159 --> 00:44:15.280
was of the minute high. Terrence
Man in his twenty four minutes was a

548
00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:20.760
plus twenty seven. Elite stuff,
the perfect fit, not a placeholder.

549
00:44:21.639 --> 00:44:25.440
His place is secure in this starting
five. And here he was post game

550
00:44:25.559 --> 00:44:31.480
on Ballet Sports. Talking with my
guy Rashan Haylock, I think Clipper was

551
00:44:31.519 --> 00:44:35.159
able to overcome everything else should win. As we sent it over with over

552
00:44:35.239 --> 00:44:39.320
Shan Ryan Terrence, you know that
three point shot was so pivotal for this

553
00:44:39.480 --> 00:44:43.679
Boston club. You were so connected
defensively, though. How were you able

554
00:44:43.760 --> 00:44:46.039
to limit them from the three point
line? I think just everybody being on

555
00:44:46.079 --> 00:44:50.079
the same page. You know,
everybody was locked in on knowing they shoot

556
00:44:50.079 --> 00:44:52.360
a lot of threes and getting out
to contesting them, playing good one on

557
00:44:52.360 --> 00:44:55.920
one defense and getting on contestant.
He's the ultimate glue guy, right,

558
00:44:55.960 --> 00:44:59.440
But it's more just about your knowledge
of the game, understanding the game.

559
00:44:59.480 --> 00:45:02.320
He has some huge Chussel plays that
sparked that running in third quarter. What

560
00:45:02.360 --> 00:45:06.719
are you seeing there when you're making
those plays, those timely plays that he'll

561
00:45:06.760 --> 00:45:08.199
spark a run like that. That's
what I do, man, That's what

562
00:45:08.239 --> 00:45:12.440
I pride myself on. That's what
I do for this team. Bring energy,

563
00:45:12.519 --> 00:45:15.760
make plays, make it easier for
these big guys. Abardi told me

564
00:45:15.880 --> 00:45:21.239
forty five friends and family here for
you in this one. Who was it

565
00:45:21.320 --> 00:45:23.119
like being able to show out in
front of the home crowd? Amazing?

566
00:45:23.159 --> 00:45:27.199
Man. Amazing. It's a great
opportunity. It's the dream come true to

567
00:45:27.239 --> 00:45:30.440
be playing here on this floor.
I girl right down the road. So

568
00:45:30.480 --> 00:45:32.840
it's dope to see everybody here supporting
me. Appreciate you for stopping. Congrats

569
00:45:32.880 --> 00:45:37.800
on the wind. It's terrors Man, Brian, great stuff, great stuff

570
00:45:37.800 --> 00:45:43.840
from Brian Seamen and Rashan Haylock there
with Terrence Man. Yeah, homecoming for

571
00:45:43.960 --> 00:45:47.239
him. But this is somebody,
you know, maybe some extra pressure because

572
00:45:47.960 --> 00:45:52.760
he was back in Boston in Massachusetts. This is somebody who has always thrived

573
00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:59.079
when the pressure is on. I
thought Kawhi Leonard and Terrence Man both look

574
00:45:59.159 --> 00:46:02.519
the part and were raising their level
of play because it was a big ball

575
00:46:02.559 --> 00:46:07.599
game, because it was a measuring
stick contest, because they had just played

576
00:46:07.599 --> 00:46:14.639
in Toronto yesterday and had to start
fast. They set the tone. That's

577
00:46:14.639 --> 00:46:16.840
why team Man's on the starting lineup. If he didn't know, uh,

578
00:46:17.519 --> 00:46:21.440
let's see, we'll hold this call. We'll take a quick time out.

579
00:46:21.920 --> 00:46:23.760
We'll get back to your phone calls
at eight six six nine, eight seven

580
00:46:23.800 --> 00:46:29.280
two five seventy eight six six ninety
seven two five seventy You can also get

581
00:46:29.360 --> 00:46:36.119
to me at follow Adam A on
Twitter as the apology tour is continuing from

582
00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:39.039
Clippers fans who may have been out
on James Harden. Clipper vat Vlad said,

583
00:46:39.599 --> 00:46:45.079
I could admittedly tuck my tail between
my legs and say absolutely I wasn't

584
00:46:45.119 --> 00:46:49.519
on board and it started rough.
I didn't expect this Harden. I was

585
00:46:49.559 --> 00:46:54.239
wrong. Who's next? Who's next? Harden was just two of eleven still

586
00:46:54.280 --> 00:47:00.360
control the ballgame was a plus thirty
six team high plus thirty six in the

587
00:47:00.400 --> 00:47:07.280
ballgame. That's also the number of
the Clippers led by at most largest lead

588
00:47:07.320 --> 00:47:09.559
of thirty six. They win one
fifteen to ninety six in Boston over the

589
00:47:09.559 --> 00:47:14.639
Celtics. More clipperstock next here on
a five seven E LA Sports. Oh

590
00:47:14.679 --> 00:47:19.760
we got Chuck Mockler coming up next, Big Chuck. The LA Clippers continue

591
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:22.280
their hunt for a Lario b They
still want to get that Lario beat.

592
00:47:22.320 --> 00:47:28.360
Don't miss a moment all season long. This is the LA Clippers audio network.

593
00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:31.519
He Sir Sperkins, where you at
Bill Simmons, where you at Clippers

594
00:47:31.559 --> 00:47:37.960
just blew out the Celtics in Boston, and I'm pulling out receipts. Clippers'

595
00:47:38.000 --> 00:47:44.960
best team in the NBA over the
last thirty four games, they are twenty

596
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:51.480
seven and seven. Welcome back into
clipperstock. I'm Adam Osland. Clippers win

597
00:47:51.559 --> 00:47:54.079
by nineteen in Boston, they led
by as many as thirty six final scores

598
00:47:54.119 --> 00:47:59.400
one fifteen to ninety six. And
join the show. Now, his big

599
00:47:59.719 --> 00:48:04.760
Chuck Mockler. After a big Clippers
victory, he pushed will Updyke out of

600
00:48:04.800 --> 00:48:09.199
the way. But that's okay,
that's okay. The Clippers win like this,

601
00:48:10.000 --> 00:48:13.000
A lot of people are gonna want
to get on eight six, six,

602
00:48:13.119 --> 00:48:15.559
ninety seven, two five seventy is
the phone number. But Chuck,

603
00:48:15.599 --> 00:48:21.760
what were you most impressed by by
the Clippers in this one? I think

604
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:24.199
I was other than the fact that
they got in at two in the morning

605
00:48:24.400 --> 00:48:27.960
and we were able to blow out
a team that people thought was the best

606
00:48:27.960 --> 00:48:31.239
team in the league, travel restrictions
wise, I was most impressive by the

607
00:48:31.360 --> 00:48:36.159
group effort on the board from the
Clippers in this game. If you look

608
00:48:36.199 --> 00:48:38.519
at the rebound numbers in this one, Kawhi Leonard had seven boards, Mason

609
00:48:38.559 --> 00:48:43.039
Pubbly had seven boards, Daniel Tice
had seven boards, Paul George six,

610
00:48:43.239 --> 00:48:45.719
Terrence Man six, Harden eight.
You had a couple of guys with four,

611
00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:50.360
you had a handful of guys with
three. That was an issue that

612
00:48:50.480 --> 00:48:52.440
you know, we were maybe worried
about going into this game. Granted the

613
00:48:52.480 --> 00:48:55.679
Celtics were down their starting center,
but the team effort on the boards was

614
00:48:55.760 --> 00:49:00.440
huge. I think it also helped
Tyson pubbly made me feel little bit better

615
00:49:00.440 --> 00:49:02.800
than they had backup down there.
So locking it on that end and making

616
00:49:02.800 --> 00:49:06.599
sure to take care of business on
the glass, I was really impressed by

617
00:49:06.840 --> 00:49:09.400
Hey, it's not like the Clippers
had their starting center either, and another

618
00:49:09.440 --> 00:49:14.280
guy like Kirstaff sporzingis that's top three
in rim protection on the season. But

619
00:49:14.800 --> 00:49:17.960
it's a fantastic point. That is
defense and rebounding the old pat Riley rule

620
00:49:19.039 --> 00:49:23.239
to winning championships. No rebounds,
no rings, no boards, no rings.

621
00:49:23.320 --> 00:49:29.280
The board man got paid. He
did have those seven rebounds, and

622
00:49:29.719 --> 00:49:32.480
there was just I mean, we
say it all the time and he downplays

623
00:49:32.519 --> 00:49:36.960
it, but you know, when
it's a big game like this, Kawhi

624
00:49:37.039 --> 00:49:40.840
Leonard is laser focused. In twelve
points in the first twelve minutes when nobody

625
00:49:40.880 --> 00:49:45.199
else was really scoring, it was
him and team man early on that I

626
00:49:45.199 --> 00:49:50.199
thought played really well for the Clippers. And held it down. Defensively,

627
00:49:50.239 --> 00:49:52.480
Yeah, a lot of guys were
good, but offensively they needed what Kawhi

628
00:49:52.480 --> 00:49:58.760
provided them to start both halves.
Yeah, absolutely. I mean Jason Tatum

629
00:49:58.800 --> 00:50:00.400
came out and had seven points to
ope for the second half, and the

630
00:50:00.400 --> 00:50:04.320
Clippers were able to answer that,
right, Like, that's a tough thing

631
00:50:04.320 --> 00:50:07.880
to do in ending away environment,
let alone the best and I guess the

632
00:50:07.920 --> 00:50:12.360
hardest away environment to play in so
far this year. But like you said,

633
00:50:12.400 --> 00:50:15.599
Kawhi was laser focused. He didn't
have to play too much yesterday,

634
00:50:15.800 --> 00:50:19.280
you know, so it was great. And Terrence ma hand that felt like

635
00:50:19.320 --> 00:50:22.039
almost took a step this game.
I don't know, he was everywhere.

636
00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:25.679
He got subbed in for Russ after
kind of a tougher stretch from Russ,

637
00:50:25.719 --> 00:50:30.519
but it was immediately affected with the
steal and then a dunk. But no,

638
00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:32.920
I mean they Terrence is kind of
emerging, is a you know,

639
00:50:34.039 --> 00:50:37.280
low key leader of this team.
He's been on the team a very long

640
00:50:37.320 --> 00:50:39.760
time, especially when you consider kind
of a turnover this two and three era.

641
00:50:39.920 --> 00:50:45.000
So Terrence, Terrence really showed something
today. It's almost like he earned

642
00:50:45.000 --> 00:50:49.880
that starting spot. It's almost like
he deserves to be a starter, and

643
00:50:50.199 --> 00:50:54.280
going back, I want to say, now they're thirty eight and eleven now

644
00:50:55.400 --> 00:50:59.159
over that span of time, heading
back to last season when they had that

645
00:50:59.199 --> 00:51:02.519
ten to four with terrace Man in
the starting lineup right before the All Star

646
00:51:02.599 --> 00:51:06.599
break. All right, the guy
has been too good and he's too good

647
00:51:06.639 --> 00:51:10.360
of a fit next to now James
Harden and two one, three out there.

648
00:51:12.119 --> 00:51:17.000
But this team and the defense they
showed on the road in eight blocks,

649
00:51:17.599 --> 00:51:22.280
eight steals. You know we've talked
about has there been slippage on the

650
00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:24.559
defensive end? Can they put it
together for four quarters? Well, I

651
00:51:24.559 --> 00:51:29.320
wouldn't say it was four quarters because
the fourth was inconsequential, but when the

652
00:51:29.360 --> 00:51:32.360
game was in the balance, they
put it together with their best defensive performance,

653
00:51:32.440 --> 00:51:37.920
right Chuck, Yeah, absolutely.
I mean they talk about you know,

654
00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:39.599
people are gonna say, oh,
the Celtics shot horribly. The Clippers

655
00:51:39.599 --> 00:51:45.760
also shot horribly in this game.
They mean justice in these threes as as

656
00:51:45.760 --> 00:51:49.000
the Celtics did. So. No, the defense. The defense was locked

657
00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:52.119
in. Everyone knew their assignments.
There was the rotation. No one was

658
00:51:52.199 --> 00:51:55.840
kind of lacking on that. There
weren't any weird soft doubles or anything like

659
00:51:55.880 --> 00:51:59.880
that. Even when Tatum was starting
to get comfortable, which started a little

660
00:52:00.239 --> 00:52:02.280
you know, he started pretty hot. And this one they were never overwhelmed.

661
00:52:02.320 --> 00:52:06.679
They didn't push the pace or anything
like that. So everyone played within

662
00:52:06.760 --> 00:52:09.079
themselves in terms of the game plan, which I think is a credit to

663
00:52:09.119 --> 00:52:12.840
them and a huge credit to Tyloo
give them a turnaround they had for this.

664
00:52:13.920 --> 00:52:16.519
I think another thing that's developing right
now is points in the paint.

665
00:52:16.840 --> 00:52:22.480
They've had seventy recently, they've had
sixty four in this one, sixty eight

666
00:52:22.559 --> 00:52:24.920
their last three games. They've scored
two hundred and two points in the paint

667
00:52:24.920 --> 00:52:29.400
in their last two. They haven't
been knocking down three. So they're showing

668
00:52:29.440 --> 00:52:34.000
another dimension in a new way to
beat you and dominate you. And that

669
00:52:34.079 --> 00:52:37.559
has been you know, rebounding is
a part of that, but also how

670
00:52:37.559 --> 00:52:42.440
often does this team get to the
basket. Can they get enough easy buckets?

671
00:52:42.440 --> 00:52:45.199
That's always been a question mark.
They're starting to really play better in

672
00:52:45.199 --> 00:52:50.000
that area. Yeah, and it
starts with the pick and roll. You

673
00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:52.000
know, you have James Harden playing
such a great pickle with Zubos, and

674
00:52:52.079 --> 00:52:55.840
then Mason pubbly has to come in. James Harden has Mason publy looking like

675
00:52:57.000 --> 00:53:00.440
he hasn't missed any time, you
know, with in this offense, and

676
00:53:00.559 --> 00:53:02.679
you know there's a reason probably which
well and forward a day, and a

677
00:53:02.679 --> 00:53:07.079
lot of that goes for being put
in good positions by James Harden and things

678
00:53:07.079 --> 00:53:13.480
like that. So the ability to
get touches in the pain helps the fantastic

679
00:53:13.519 --> 00:53:15.880
line up of shooters. They already
have two from the outside. So I

680
00:53:15.920 --> 00:53:20.360
don't know things things are going as
well as they've ever got about exactly sure

681
00:53:20.400 --> 00:53:24.159
how to handle it, But I
think I'm doing an okay job and taking

682
00:53:24.199 --> 00:53:29.760
it all in stride right now.
Big Chuck Mockler is joining us from Clips

683
00:53:29.760 --> 00:53:31.639
and Dip a little double dip here
on Clippers Talk post game. After the

684
00:53:31.679 --> 00:53:36.519
Clippers led by as many as thirty
six, they win one fifteen to ninety

685
00:53:36.559 --> 00:53:40.320
six in Boston over the Celtics.
So let's push it forward a little bit

686
00:53:40.400 --> 00:53:45.639
because as good as they are playing, we know a win is not going

687
00:53:45.679 --> 00:53:49.679
to define their season in Boston.
This team is going to be measured upon

688
00:53:50.000 --> 00:53:52.800
how they do in the playoffs.
But the regular season is very important because

689
00:53:52.800 --> 00:53:55.559
you're trying to move up the standings. We've talked about it ad nauseum.

690
00:53:55.639 --> 00:53:59.239
Only team in the last fifty years
to win it that wasn't a top three

691
00:53:59.280 --> 00:54:02.519
seed the ninety if Houston Rockets.
Clippers currently in that three spot, and

692
00:54:02.559 --> 00:54:07.719
they got to continue building those championship
habits. And now they're taking on maybe

693
00:54:07.800 --> 00:54:10.119
the hottest team in the East since
they just beat Boston. I guess it's

694
00:54:10.159 --> 00:54:14.039
got to be the Cleveland Cavaliers.
They're nine to one in their last ten.

695
00:54:14.320 --> 00:54:17.320
I want to say they've won something
like fourteen of sixteen or fourteen of

696
00:54:17.400 --> 00:54:22.760
seventeen. What do you need to
see from the Clippers Monday in Cleveland,

697
00:54:22.840 --> 00:54:27.480
Charles. We need to see Paul
George look like he only had to play

698
00:54:27.519 --> 00:54:30.719
twenty two minutes in this game,
right, Like Will and I talked about

699
00:54:30.719 --> 00:54:35.239
this week is a little live over
on YouTube. But it's not like this

700
00:54:35.320 --> 00:54:38.440
game was a hard spot victory they
got right Like, this was just a

701
00:54:38.480 --> 00:54:43.199
complete blowout. So it's kind of
weird to wrack your head around it because

702
00:54:43.239 --> 00:54:45.519
usually you would think something like this, Oh, it was a pretty close

703
00:54:45.599 --> 00:54:49.679
game, quick turnaround before playing another
good team. Not it's kind of a

704
00:54:49.679 --> 00:54:52.760
slow turnaround all things considered for Paul
George and guys like Mason told me too,

705
00:54:52.800 --> 00:54:57.360
right. The Cavs are a very
big team as well, So I'm

706
00:54:57.360 --> 00:55:00.920
really excited to see how Paul George
looks. He looks great, you know,

707
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:05.519
Tyler said. Apparently, you know, Paul George is like I insisted

708
00:55:05.519 --> 00:55:08.280
that he played. So I'm excited
to see Paul George just on a little

709
00:55:08.280 --> 00:55:13.239
bit more rasp And I'm excited to
see maybe what Tyler does in this game.

710
00:55:13.280 --> 00:55:15.800
If we see anything different or weird
with the small ball lineup, give

711
00:55:15.800 --> 00:55:20.039
them the size that the Cavs can
can throw at you. But I hope

712
00:55:20.039 --> 00:55:22.039
we see the same effort on the
boards. I hope we take care of

713
00:55:22.079 --> 00:55:25.480
the ball the same way. But
you know, if if they don't make

714
00:55:25.519 --> 00:55:30.000
it, if they don't play their
best, I think we can all It'll

715
00:55:30.000 --> 00:55:34.119
be okay, given what happened the
last two nights. He is Chuck Mockler,

716
00:55:34.159 --> 00:55:36.280
Hey, is that live still going? I can jump on in about

717
00:55:36.320 --> 00:55:37.840
a couple of minutes here, Charles, Can I get in with you guys?

718
00:55:37.920 --> 00:55:40.960
Or is will holding it down right
now? I do you end it?

719
00:55:40.960 --> 00:55:44.239
It is not still going, but
we will be. We'll have the

720
00:55:44.280 --> 00:55:47.920
tripod about going after the football games. There we go Now that's a promoter

721
00:55:49.079 --> 00:55:52.920
right there. Only in America.
He is Chuck Mockler, Charles, thanks

722
00:55:52.960 --> 00:55:57.719
for doing this to that on Clipperstock, Thanks for having me us go Cliff

723
00:55:58.079 --> 00:56:02.119
Before we get out of here to
get to our guy Jose in Southgate.

724
00:56:02.199 --> 00:56:07.440
After a victory like this, I
know he's probably a little bit on tilt

725
00:56:07.519 --> 00:56:12.519
on one hundred whatever you want to
say. He's excited. Jose in Southgate.

726
00:56:14.119 --> 00:56:24.400
Hey, I'm gonna keep it going
clips last, Go Clippers. I

727
00:56:24.400 --> 00:56:30.280
don't know what the initial song was, but you know, you never know.

728
00:56:30.440 --> 00:56:34.719
On Clipperst karaoke here a cappella.
It's a great way through a phone

729
00:56:34.719 --> 00:56:44.039
line. Clippers win all the matters
again in Boston one fifteen to ninety six.

730
00:56:45.079 --> 00:56:52.000
They have won sure Sure five straight, twenty seven of their last thirty

731
00:56:52.039 --> 00:56:59.000
four, twenty two of their last
twenty six, and thirteen of their last

732
00:56:59.039 --> 00:57:04.039
fifteen games. They'll be in Cleveland
taking on the Cavaliers on Monday. Tip

733
00:57:04.079 --> 00:57:07.800
time at four pregame at three.
Before we get out of here, I

734
00:57:07.840 --> 00:57:13.000
do want to talk to Katie Newton, our producer extraordinary here in the bank,

735
00:57:14.400 --> 00:57:19.679
because there's always time for Katie Newton's
casual NBA corner wasn't always a big

736
00:57:19.679 --> 00:57:22.280
fan, but after this season by
the Clippers, you know she might be

737
00:57:22.280 --> 00:57:23.920
a diehard. Well, I did
tell you I like to see Boston sports

738
00:57:23.960 --> 00:57:28.320
teams lose because, let's be real, the fans, no matter what the

739
00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:34.320
sport, they're the biggest babies they
I like them apples, Katie Newton going

740
00:57:34.400 --> 00:57:37.039
to Boston's neck. I mean,
I went out ben to Boston. I've

741
00:57:37.039 --> 00:57:39.960
got friends in Boston. It's great
city. But sports fans are just big

742
00:57:40.000 --> 00:57:44.559
babies when they lose. What because
the Chargers lost to the Patriots a few

743
00:57:44.559 --> 00:57:45.960
too many times on the playoffs,
And you're a little bit better because when

744
00:57:46.000 --> 00:57:51.039
you watch, when you watch fans
of any Boston team, because you know,

745
