Time for a postgame Look, it's
your LA Clippers. This is Clippers Locker

2
00:00:06.519 --> 00:00:09.880
Road, brought to you by Cedars
Sinai, the official health partner of the

00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:14.880
LA Clippers, and by Patchonga,
official travel casino of the LA Clippers.

4
00:00:15.160 --> 00:00:19.440
Breaking down today's action with the pre
and post game voice. If you're LA

5
00:00:19.559 --> 00:00:24.559
Clippers, They're locking in every game
every night. Adam Osland Clippers win by

6
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:28.760
twenty five and San Antonio over the
Spurs one twenty four to ninety nine.

7
00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:32.920
Welcome into your postgame show. I'm
Adam Oslin coming up second half highlights,

8
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:36.840
your post game box score and Clippers
sock on am five to seventy. LA

9
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:41.880
Sports eight sixty six ninety seven two
five seventy eight six six ninety seven two

10
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:45.719
five seventy is the phone number.
But let's get back out to San Antonio

11
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:50.000
and get your radio voice of the
Clippers in Carlo Jimenez. Clippers finished with

12
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:55.479
just seven turnovers in the ballgame.
They've slowly but surely been cleaning up the

13
00:00:55.479 --> 00:00:58.840
turnovers the last couple of games.
But how about James Harden ten assists to

14
00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:03.640
zero turnovers. Carlo James Harden was
everything that the Clippers thought he could be

15
00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:06.760
and Moore tonight. Adam, Look, you didn't have it going shooting wise

16
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:10.159
four to twelve for the field.
That didn't matter because in that second quarter,

17
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:12.319
when you were able to set the
table with tys or Zubots on a

18
00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:17.480
pick and roll and on the outside
you had Norm, Kawhi and Russ,

19
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:21.799
the offense just flowed so easily.
And we're starting to see this team gel

20
00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:25.359
a little more, and the more
dangerous it looks as time goes on.

21
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:27.799
Head coach Ron Lew said, beat
patient, we'll be all right. That

22
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:32.359
six game winning streak didn't face him
at all. And Adam, it looks

23
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:36.519
like we're seeing why this Clippers team
looks as dangerous as they come. You

24
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:41.239
can turn them all over over only
seven times and give thirty assists, you're

25
00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:42.760
gonna win almost every game you play. Yeah, and I love the fact

26
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:48.079
that James Harden made life so much
easier for Paul George and Kawhi Leonard.

27
00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:51.239
There was a play through in the
first half of that third quarter. First

28
00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:53.480
the lob over the defense for Kawhi
for an and one, and then the

29
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:57.920
no look pass to Paul George for
a layup. These guys typically don't get

30
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:01.760
baskets that easy out there. You'll
love to see it. You do love

31
00:02:01.799 --> 00:02:05.920
to see it. The Clippers are
getting great looks around the rim. I

32
00:02:05.959 --> 00:02:09.479
love the Paul George kind of helping
the team finish things. To begin that

33
00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:14.360
fourth quarter, he was out there
to put the nail in the coffin and

34
00:02:14.400 --> 00:02:17.680
he put two nails just to be
sure. I think he had eleven or

35
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:23.199
thirteen points in that final frame at
him. And then Kawhi Leonard was super

36
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:27.319
aggressive to start and that carried out. And I think when Kawhi is shooting

37
00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:30.479
the ball early and him, it
just gives everybody else the confidence to know

38
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:34.080
that, hey, they don't have
to force everything because Kawhi is gonna get

39
00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:37.080
his And he did tonight with his
twenty one points. And even after starting

40
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:39.120
zero for three, he kept putting
them up. He started to knock down

41
00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:43.840
a couple from the outside, and
Yeah, Paul George dominated in that fourth

42
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:46.439
quarter. By my count, Carlo, he was six of seven with fourteen

43
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:51.080
points. He could not miss.
He helped Kawhi Leonard stay on the bench

44
00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:53.120
late. Yeah, it was perfect. It was what you needed to close

45
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:57.840
the game. Kawhi talked about being
able to go up big and finish,

46
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:00.759
and the Clippers and him finished today. San Antonio gone within eleven at one

47
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:05.680
point, within nine for a hot
second, but that was in and George

48
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:07.520
put him to bed in the fourth
quarter. He was excellent from the field.

49
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:12.080
Continues to be the two way talent
that we all thought this team could

50
00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:15.240
be. Terrence Man. I mean
he might not score at him, but

51
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:19.520
boy does he affect every facet of
this ball game. Yeah, he proves

52
00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:23.280
it that sometimes in the box score
you can be kind of unstatable. The

53
00:03:23.319 --> 00:03:25.919
plus minus is always good with him. But oh of six from the field,

54
00:03:25.960 --> 00:03:30.680
who cares? He had three steals. He was picking guys up full

55
00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:32.560
court, and he was doing some
of the dirty work out there. Hey,

56
00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:37.000
when Paul George and Kawhi Leonard need
a rest. Defending wise, Terrence

57
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:39.439
Man can be that point of attack
defender. He loves to do it.

58
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:44.719
He thrives in that area, and
so does Daniel Tice off the bench eight

59
00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:47.280
of ten with nineteen points. But
it was the hustle plays and just being

60
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:53.159
available around the rim, whether just
combating shots in the perimeter or getting to

61
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:57.719
the basket for some easy throwdowns.
I believe it was Russell Westbrook who found

62
00:03:57.759 --> 00:04:00.240
him a couple times in the second
half, a huge dunks from Tys.

63
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:05.240
Yeah, he was excellent. Three
offensive rebounds for Tys Adam to go along

64
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:10.439
with his one steal and only one
turnover. And I say that because he

65
00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:14.159
had the ball a lot at the
free throw line. Harden or Leonard or

66
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:18.439
George would find him at the free
throw line trying to navigate and pass to

67
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:24.000
the guys around the offense, and
he did a great job finding people around

68
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:28.439
the rim and outside the arc.
It was really interesting when somebody asked head

69
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:32.879
coach Sharan lu what flipped in Cleveland
when you had all the stars with lebron

70
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:35.959
Kyrie along with Kevin Love, and
he said, well, we made a

71
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:40.560
trade. We picked up Timothy Moskov
and the defense was there, and he

72
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:44.000
was able to run the rim as
a movable big who could catch the ball

73
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:46.879
and distribute. And it feels like
Daniel Tye has walked into a situation where

74
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:53.879
his skills are being emphasized because of
what little he has to do. He's

75
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:57.480
not going to need to score nineteen
every night, but he's gonna need to

76
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:00.399
box out and pass well, and
he's doing both those things. Well.

77
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:04.959
Norman Powell also, I want to
highlight second highest scoring ballgame of the season

78
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:10.959
for him. He has nineteen but
timely threes from him the last couple of

79
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:13.959
games. Hit the one with about
three minutes left in Denver, then with

80
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:17.600
six minutes left against Houston, and
then in that third quarter when San Antonio

81
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:21.959
had it down to eleven, he
knocked down a huge, critical pivotal I

82
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:27.560
think, lead changing, game changing
shot from the outside. Norm's been excellent

83
00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:30.720
to start the season. I think
he's hit multiple threes in all but one

84
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:34.639
game this year, averaging fifteen points
in his last three games on over fifty

85
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:39.160
percent from the three point line.
Clippers didn't shoot it all that well from

86
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:42.199
the three point line twelve for thirty
six thirty three percent, but you're right

87
00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:46.199
at him. They were timely threes
made tonight. When the Spurs would go

88
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:49.879
on run, the Clippers would respond
with one from downtown. We heard head

89
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:54.360
coach Searron lou in the pregame talk
about the three ball has really changed the

90
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:57.800
game in the sense that teams can
go on runs and leads are never saved.

91
00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:00.240
But yet the Clippers were able to
use those three to keep their lead

92
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:03.160
safe. Tonight, Yeah, no
doubt. Clippers go on to win one

93
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:06.839
twenty four to ninety nine in San
Antonio over the Spurs. They will run

94
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:12.519
it back Wednesday. I believe tip
off same time. Carlo. Correct me

95
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:16.160
if I'm wrong. It happens too
often. We got a five pm tip,

96
00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:24.519
four pm pregame for you on Wednesday
on Thanksgiving Eve, Clippers in Spurs.

97
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:28.759
Let's see if the Clippers can make
it seven straight over San Antonio?

98
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:30.759
Or is that tonight? Carlo?
Correct me there too, you were you

99
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:34.519
were right, Adam, go second, Yes, and you're two for two

100
00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:38.040
for two. Come on, go
with your intuition, Go with your first

101
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:42.319
guest. I remember Scantron's Clippers win
one twenty four to ninety nine over the

102
00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:45.959
Spurs in San Antonio. Carlo,
great call. We'll talk to you on

103
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.040
Wednesday. My friend doc to you. Wednesday. We'll be salving a little

104
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:51.879
bit. Clippers will be hoping to
come away with a win before Thanksgiving.

105
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:57.480

115
00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:39.120
Let's get to some second half highlights. Clippers were up by eleven at

116
00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:44.079
the half. It was sixty six
to fifty five Clippers in that third quarter,

117
00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:46.120
though. Kawhi Leonard once again got
them off to a quick start.

118
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:48.720
Into the orange paint, kicks it
out. Leonard on the right wing,

119
00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:51.480
pump fakes at three, so hand
Jumpsy drives by so Hand pakes line,

120
00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:56.240
jumper fading away and he putting it
home. Kawhi Leonard with another buckets,

121
00:07:56.399 --> 00:08:01.040
He's gone fourteen. Leonard underneath the
ram pump fakes fans, lays it up

122
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:05.480
and one the deuce and damage for
Kawhi Clippers lead and the ball Leonard to

123
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:09.360
the rim. The flutter is home. We're picking up the pace here in

124
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:15.680
San Antonio. Kawhi above twenty Kawhi
Leonard with nine points on the third quarter.

125
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:18.600
Clippers were up by twenty in the
third, but towards the end of

126
00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:22.120
it San Antonio started to chip away. It was ninety one to seventy seven

127
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:26.839
entering the fourth. In the fourth
quarter, though, Paul George absolutely caught

128
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:31.319
fire straight away shovels back to George
and the highlight of yellow shoes. It's

129
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:33.000
a freak to line on his backside. Brendon Ky'll sneak his way to the

130
00:08:33.039 --> 00:08:37.919
mid range jay and finds his mark
again. Paul George with a couple of

131
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:41.440
buckets. Straight away George gets away
from McDermott, a triple yes. Paul

132
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:46.080
George, Clippers with basketball attacking to
our left up by twenty as we approach

George traightaway a three. You passed,

137
00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:09.200
Paul George rattles it through twenty eats. Paul George entered the fourth quarter with

138
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.480
fourteen. He would get fourteen in
the fourth on six of seven shooting,

139
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:16.480
and the Clippers would go on to
win big one, twenty four to ninety

140
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:20.120
nine over the San Antonio Spurs.

Clippers postgame locker room coverage next right
here on the Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network.

146
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:48.759
LA Clippers basketball is on the two
one three era continues. You're listening

147
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:54.000
to the LA Clippers on the LA
Clippers Audio Network. Clippers win once twenty

148
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:56.840
four to ninety nine in San Antonio
over the Spurs as they took care of

149
00:09:56.879 --> 00:10:03.399
the basketball and they got to the
free throw line over and over again san

150
00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:07.720
Antonio. I think as they were
trying to make up for some poor defense

151
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:09.600
on the perimeter coming into this one. They were giving up forty one percent

152
00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:15.120
shooting on three pointers. Clippers only
win twelve of thirty six from distance,

153
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:20.919
that's thirty three percent. But they
fouled the Clippers three times on threes.

154
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:26.159
I believe it was Paul George once, Norman Palell twice. They're a little

155
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:28.840
over zealous there, trying to show, hey, we can defend the perimeter

156
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:35.799
too. Can you defend without fouling? Though Clippers end up with just seven

157
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:39.080
turnovers in the ball game, they
go twenty two of twenty five from the

158
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:43.000
free throw line. And how about
your newest Clipper Daniel Tice eight of ten

159
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:48.919
A plus eighteen off the bench,
nineteen points, seven boards, big throwdowns,

160
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:52.960
energy plays, contesting everything defensively,
getting deflections, had to steal love,

161
00:10:54.039 --> 00:10:56.159
the effort and the hustle he played
with. That's what he's been doing

162
00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:00.840
his entire career. We just haven't
seen him much last two seasons. Good

163
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:05.159
to see him in a Clipper's uniform
now. Terrence Man also making hustle plays.

164
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:07.879
He went zer of six from the
outside. He's gone about seventy five

165
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:11.919
minutes without making a shot on the
court. Who cares love him in the

166
00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:18.559
starting lineup as he takes some of
the toughest assignments and makes guys have to

167
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.320
feel his presence out there. Defensively, he was a plus seven James Harden

168
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.600
though, when you talk about that
assist a turnover ratio thirty to seven,

169
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:33.840
Harden ten assists to zero turnovers by
himself thirteen points, four of twelve,

170
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:37.399
shooting a couple of three pointers,
miss some of his shots towards the end.

171
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.600
He didn't return in the fourth quarter. Neither did Kawhi Leonard. Both

172
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:46.759
of them finish with twenty eight minutes. That bodes well for Wednesday. Well,

173
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.720
they'll run it back against San Antonio. Paul Giorgio led them with twenty

174
00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:54.799
eight points eleven of sixteen, shooting
four of eight from distance six of seven,

175
00:11:54.960 --> 00:12:00.759
with fourteen points in the fourth quarter
alone, win one, twenty four

176
00:12:00.799 --> 00:12:03.840
to ninety nine, and San Antonio. They'll do it again. As I

by twenty five and got their first

196
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:35.240
fame. But this was a taking
care of business type of victory for the

197
00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:39.399
Clippers. This was how you have
to play when you know there are really

198
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:46.120
tough games coming up. Friday back
at home against the Pelicans. I believe

199
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:52.440
got the victory earlier tonight. Zion
Williamson has been dominant when he's healthy,

200
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:56.759
and I don't think the Clippers have
had to deal with him yet, which

201
00:13:56.840 --> 00:14:00.279
is amazing so far. But they
beat up on the Sacramento Kings once twenty

202
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:03.120
nine to ninety three, and that
is a team, by the way,

203
00:14:03.320 --> 00:14:07.159
that has had the Clippers number even
without Zion. They see them Friday back

204
00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:13.639
at home, then the Mavericks Saturday
at home. Yeah, home, back

205
00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:18.440
to back. That's just brutal,
and then Monday, the Denver Nuggets come

206
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.200
into Crypto dot Com. Now we
need to see the same thing on Wednesday

207
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:26.200
against the Spurs, who have lost
nine in a row. They're reeling,

208
00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:31.919
they're spiraling. They lost Devin Vassel. Didn't have him in this ballgame,

209
00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:35.360
who was shooting forty three percent from
the outside, getting seventeen a game,

210
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:39.600
and they just really don't have it
together offensively or defensively. They're twenty ninth

211
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:46.639
in offensive rating and defensive rating.
It's been tough for them, it's been

212
00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:50.840
tough for Greg Popovich, but the
Clippers can't feel sorry for anyone. This

213
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:56.080
is how you have to win.
It's less about style points to me,

214
00:14:56.919 --> 00:15:01.799
and more about getting guys out and
resting and healthy for the grind that's coming.

215
00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:05.519
With those three games I just brought
up, Kawhi Leonard only had to

216
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.759
play twenty eight, James Harden twenty
eight. Neither guy played in the fourth

217
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:13.799
quarter because they were good enough beforehand. Kawhi with nine of his twenty one

218
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:20.080
in the third and got some easy
ones thanks to James Harden lobbing it up

219
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:24.639
the court to him. Kawhi gets
an an one, James Harden finds Paul

220
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:28.759
George for a no look pass for
a layup. I told you day one,

221
00:15:28.360 --> 00:15:33.279
James Harden is going to unlock the
best of the two pin to three

222
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:37.840
connection. He just makes the game
so much easier. It's amazing to me

223
00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:43.519
that because of maybe Charles Barkley or
perception or the way he played in Houston

224
00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:48.600
at times and the low lies.
People think this guy is just a dribbler

225
00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:52.759
when he's been leading the league and
assists multiple times and just had ten assists

226
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:58.240
to zero turnovers, went four of
twelve from the field, who cares,

227
00:15:58.559 --> 00:16:03.679
was a plus seventeen and didn't turn
the ball over once and made life so

228
00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:11.360
much easier for everyone around him.
And people associate him with just isolation basketball

229
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:17.360
and getting his Did you not watch
last season he helped Joe l Embiid get

230
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:22.120
the MVP. Did you not watch
him in Brooklyn? He was great at

231
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:29.080
creating for others like Kyrie and Kevin
Durant. I know it was only a

232
00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:32.960
dozen games or so, sixteen total
with those three, but you could see

233
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:37.080
it there. That's the blueprint.
That's what they saw. And one of

234
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:41.360
the reasons I believe they wanted to
bring him in was, Oh, look

235
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:45.879
how much better he made Kyrie and
KD when they were healthy. What could

236
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:52.399
he do for Kawhi and Paul George. He's a threat offensively and he's a

237
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:56.679
threat to pass the basketball. We
talked about it a ton in the pregame

238
00:16:56.799 --> 00:17:03.079
show. The way James Harden can
draw two, get the defense off balance

239
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:10.160
and find others or a floater for
himself. That's part of the game that

240
00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:14.440
he's mastered, the high pick and
roll, the step back three, which

241
00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:21.240
obviously should He showed off in style
with the game winner Friday night. He's

242
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:25.200
been really impressive the last three games
overall. Going back to the Denver game,

243
00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:27.240
I know the Clippers didn't pull it
out. It wasn't on James.

244
00:17:29.960 --> 00:17:33.200
They stay it's small late. They
paid for it against Jokic after leading by

245
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:38.519
seven with six minutes left. But
the starting lineup now with Russ coming off

246
00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:42.240
the bench and Terrence Man next to
James Harden, It's what I wanted back

247
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:47.359
in July. I've been saying it
for months, back when the trade rumors

248
00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:53.480
first started. Terrence Man is so
switchable and versatile defensively, I don't care

249
00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:59.200
that he's o for his last ten
and about the last seventy five minutes he's

250
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:03.079
been out there on the court.
He's pressing a little bit. He turned

251
00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:04.680
down a shot in the first half
from three when he was wide open for

252
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:07.839
a fifteen footer. Probably should have
just taken the threes thirty eight percent three

253
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:15.839
point shooter for his career. But
what he brings defensively in the hustle plays

254
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:22.359
three steals, Clippers with fifteen total
smothering defense. You can say, oh,

255
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:27.839
it's just San Antonio. Well yeah, but they won by twenty five.

256
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:33.839
That's the way you want them to
beat up on lesser competition, right.

257
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:41.279
They took care of business. That's
how you're supposed to play if you're

258
00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:45.680
a team that has championship expectations versus
a team that trying to get into the

259
00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:53.880
play in bottom three team in the
West, likely team in transition with Victor

260
00:18:53.880 --> 00:19:02.799
Weminyama and babying him at times,
this Clippers team tonight looked much more like

261
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:07.559
a well oiled machine. Thirty assists
to seven turnovers unbelievable. And even though

262
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:11.839
they went just twelve to thirty six
from the outside after starting off much hotter

263
00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:15.000
from deep, it didn't matter.
They got different ways to beat you.

264
00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:21.839
They can beat you with points in
the paint. When James Harden is there,

265
00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:27.319
when Russell Westbrook is dishing to Daniel
Tye, who looked incredible in just

266
00:19:27.400 --> 00:19:33.319
his second game as a Clipper,
We're all wondering, I know he's gonna

267
00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:36.200
hustle, I know he's got heart. The question is what does he look

268
00:19:36.319 --> 00:19:40.640
like physically? He looked good this
summer at Foeba for Germany, they won

269
00:19:40.720 --> 00:19:48.640
gold. How much can you take
away from that? Well, nineteen points

270
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:53.440
off the bench for Tye Vanilla Tice
eight of ten and knocked down a three

271
00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:59.799
pointer, multiple dunks off passes from
Russell Westbrook who found him on the interior.

272
00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:03.359
I thought Russ after starting off slow, missed a bank shot, missed

273
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:07.640
a three pointer, didn't like the
shot selection. Then everything was at the

274
00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:15.920
rim, finished four of eleven,
got some layups. He looked more comfortable

275
00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:19.440
after missing his first couple. He
had a steal, got it to Tys

276
00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:25.160
for a bucket, a layup to
start the second quarter, another layup out

277
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:30.759
of a timeout, and then a
layup in the fourth quarter. That's what

278
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:36.240
Russ needs to do. Apply pressure
on the rim, not just with him

279
00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:41.400
putting up the shot. Find Tys. Find big zoo, big zoo.

280
00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:47.359
By the way eleven boards. I
want to say he had nine, eight

281
00:20:47.519 --> 00:20:52.240
or nine at the half, when
he only had seven in the entire ball

282
00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:56.880
game Friday night against the Houston Rockets, But he came alive late with four

283
00:20:56.920 --> 00:21:02.039
of a seven in the fourth quarter
and was punished them, and I thought

284
00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:06.279
it transferred over a little bit.
He only played twenty two minutes. Clippers

285
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:11.279
went small a lot. It worked
against San Antonio. There were some lineups

286
00:21:11.319 --> 00:21:21.359
out there still that I didn't love. With Aviza Zubats once again next to

287
00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:26.160
PJ. Tucker, there were minus
seven quickly. I believe it was in

288
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:33.440
the second quarter. It just hasn't
been there. There just isn't spacing offensively

289
00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:40.240
with those two on the court.
PJ. Tucker did play some nice minutes

290
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:45.400
next to Tye. Those two paired
together because Tys can't shoot a little bit.

291
00:21:47.000 --> 00:21:48.279
I believe he knocked down a jumper
or not just a three pointer,

292
00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:52.599
but PJ. Tucker he didn't even
attempt to shot. And when you're not

293
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:56.039
a threat from the outside, teams
aren't gonna respect you. They're going to

294
00:21:56.079 --> 00:21:59.559
sag off of you, and they're
going to congest the paint. I like

295
00:21:59.680 --> 00:22:06.680
some of the defense I saw with
him against Victor Womenyama, But you know,

296
00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:10.599
I think it has to be situational
with him against a team like San

297
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:15.079
Antonio, and when you're up big, maybe you try some things out to

298
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:18.559
see if they work. And we'll
hear from coach lu on that in just

299
00:22:18.599 --> 00:22:22.599
a little bit. But the PJ. Tucker minutes have been tough overall.

300
00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:27.079
But Daniel Tice, they pick him
up off buyout from the Indiana Pacers in

301
00:22:27.240 --> 00:22:33.200
twenty one minutes at nineteen points and
he'll and one turnover. And what I

302
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:41.359
noticed from him in Foeba playing for
Germany was he just contested everything around the

303
00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:45.640
rim and he paid for it in
Game one, I guess because I love

304
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:48.240
the effort. But he got dunked
on twice by the Rockets. Who cares

305
00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:55.240
he's there, none of them are
and ones He's trying to protect the rim.

306
00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:59.519
Put your pride aside. Do what's
best for the team. He does.

307
00:23:00.119 --> 00:23:06.240
It started today with a layup off
a pass from PG, then a

308
00:23:06.319 --> 00:23:10.000
behind the back pass from PG to
him for a three that he knocked down.

309
00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:15.200
He had multiple offensive rebounds on one
possession in the third Daniel Tice ended

310
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:21.640
up being a miss afterwards, but
keeping the basketball for the Clippers. Kawhi

311
00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:22.680
missed a three, though, then
Tys had a tip in on that,

312
00:23:25.319 --> 00:23:30.039
then a dunk off a pass from
Russ, a layup in the fourth quarter

313
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:33.799
at the sixth thirteen mark, and
then another dunk off a pass from Russell

314
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:38.759
Westbrook. They were applying pressure still
with their backups, and Paul George out

315
00:23:38.799 --> 00:23:44.799
there just on a heater six of
seven, and I think he scored the

316
00:23:44.920 --> 00:23:48.519
first nine points for them in the
fourth quarter. Let me check that.

317
00:23:48.759 --> 00:23:52.440
There's two, there's two more,
there's a three, there's seven. So

318
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:56.759
the first seven points from Paul George
in the fourth just okay, let's put

319
00:23:56.799 --> 00:24:03.079
him away. Kawhi doesn't have to
come back out tonight. Great. That's

320
00:24:03.119 --> 00:24:07.839
how you kind of load manage and
get guys rest in games. If you're

321
00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:11.279
a great team, that stuff needs
to happen more. Too many times last

322
00:24:11.279 --> 00:24:17.359
season was the Clippers on the wrong
side of things, beating the team down

323
00:24:17.440 --> 00:24:25.720
twenty, losing to bad teams Orlando
twice. This year, it's just their

324
00:24:25.759 --> 00:24:30.440
fifth victory, second straight with James
Harden after losing sixth straight. But second

325
00:24:30.480 --> 00:24:34.279
time they've blown out San Antonio.
They blew out Portland opening night, they

326
00:24:34.359 --> 00:24:41.039
beat Orlando by fifteen. Do they
need to start stacking some wins against tougher

327
00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:48.039
competition, of course, but they
weren't playing them. And come Friday they'll

328
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:52.960
see the Pelicans, then Dallas,
than Denver. They'll get their their shot

329
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:59.119
very soon here Clippers win once twenty
four to ninety nine over the San Antonio

330
00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:02.960
Spurs the run back against him on
Wednesday. Before we break, let's get

331
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:06.079
to Morris in Long Beach. Morris, what's up here on Clipper stock withou

332
00:25:06.079 --> 00:25:08.880
Amason's Adam? You know? It
seems like forty percent of the time when

333
00:25:08.920 --> 00:25:12.119
I called you know and stole my
thunder listen Wimen was the last time the

334
00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:18.319
Clippers had a five hit a three
point shot? Say it one more time,

335
00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:22.279
morse wim was the last time that
the Clippers had a five hit a

336
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:29.359
three point shot be able to shoot
the three the center Ooh, serge Bocka,

337
00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:32.920
serge Oboca, serge of Bacca.
I would say, oh, it's

338
00:25:33.319 --> 00:25:34.440
been a while. I'm gonna change
him. I liked this boy tight.

339
00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:37.359
He looked like one of these guys
that just got released from one of the

340
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:41.680
NFL teams. He couldn't make it
in football, so you're going to try

341
00:25:41.720 --> 00:25:44.079
to play basketball. I mean,
this guy was like a bowling pin.

342
00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:47.359
He was running around, he was
touching Adam at him. He was touching

343
00:25:47.440 --> 00:25:51.279
people how much easy? Way about
two forty he was set a pick over

344
00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:53.160
here that didn't work right over here, said another. He was moving.

345
00:25:53.319 --> 00:25:56.920
I didn't recognize these guys. If
they didn't have clippers on their uniform.

346
00:25:57.200 --> 00:26:02.279
I went and in harding beard and
everything. I wouldn't have recognized they were

347
00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:04.440
moving. There wasn't nothing nobody standing
around. Remember remember the other day when

348
00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:07.720
the coach got a latitude about,
you know, almost coached a little bit

349
00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:10.720
about the guy just walking. And
they were walking around today. I know

350
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:12.079
it, look at it. I
know it's San Antonio, but I'm gonna

351
00:26:12.079 --> 00:26:17.000
tell you something. They are getting
ready for Denver. The road to the

352
00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:21.400
O'Brien Trophy goes through the Joker.
They got somebody now that the joker just

353
00:26:21.480 --> 00:26:23.680
came back down, and they got
somebody that could pull him out that key

354
00:26:23.960 --> 00:26:26.640
and hit that three. I'm telling
you, that's what I saw tonight.

355
00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:30.000
I was very well, all the
other guys, you know, they're good,

356
00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:32.400
but I was impressed with this guy. I said, where do they

357
00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:36.559
find this? Do that? Really? They got a team and they got

358
00:26:36.640 --> 00:26:40.599
their nine. They got their nine
there it is. I know you gotta

359
00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:42.279
cause that, but I'm impressed with
what I saw tonight. Man, let

360
00:26:42.359 --> 00:26:47.519
me let you know. Okay,
all right, good question Morris. Maybe

361
00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:51.960
Hartenstein was the last Isaiah Hartenstein.
I know, I think Big Zoo was

362
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:53.839
like one for one in his career
when he hit that shot late in the

363
00:26:53.920 --> 00:26:59.160
season in twenty twenty one and then
went directly to the bench to keep his

364
00:26:59.319 --> 00:27:06.240
iron man could play any two straight
games in check. I'm thinking Hartenstein it

365
00:27:06.319 --> 00:27:08.759
was probably the last five to do
so, at least the last. Like

366
00:27:08.920 --> 00:27:14.079
true Big Daniel ties six' eight, he plays bigger than that to your

367
00:27:14.160 --> 00:27:18.400
point, extremely physical out there,
seven boards, three offensive rebounds, two

368
00:27:18.480 --> 00:27:22.519
came on one possession. Clippers out
rebounded them fifty one to forty eight.

369
00:27:23.799 --> 00:27:27.160
Spurs did have twelve offensive rebounds to
just ten for the Clippers. But you

370
00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:32.000
know, they shot forty eight percent
from the field, and it's about getting

371
00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:36.759
to the charity stripe sometimes and knocking
him down twenty five attempts to the Spurs

372
00:27:36.880 --> 00:27:42.279
fourteen, and the Clippers should not
be sixteenth in free throw percentage as they

373
00:27:42.359 --> 00:27:47.400
were coming into this ball game.
This team has too many good shooters for

374
00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:51.799
that. It's not like, you
know, Vita Zubats shoots around seventy percent

375
00:27:52.559 --> 00:27:57.039
at the charity stripe. He can
shoot for a big Last season, the

376
00:27:57.119 --> 00:28:02.759
Clippers were I want to say,
just out side top ten at the charity

377
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:06.960
Stripe. This season, they're sixteenth, middle of the pack. Would like

378
00:28:07.079 --> 00:28:11.160
to see him improve there because they
can and it's not sexy. I always

379
00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:15.119
say it, it ain't pretty,
but you can win ball games with the

380
00:28:15.200 --> 00:28:21.359
charity stripe, and I thought the
Clippers getting there early and often. Multiple

381
00:28:21.480 --> 00:28:26.960
times they were fouled on three pointers. I think it was Norman Palace twice

382
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:32.839
and Paul George once, who was
also hit in the face by Victor Webman

383
00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:37.680
Yama the first possession of the ballgame. His hand looked like a face hugger

384
00:28:37.759 --> 00:28:42.279
from Aliens on Paul George's face got
hit in the eye, left Norman Powell

385
00:28:42.359 --> 00:28:45.759
came in, then PG came back
in and Boyd he'd come back in the

386
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:52.200
fourth quarter with a vengeance seven six
of seven with fourteen points on the fourth

387
00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:53.960
helped put this one away for the
Clippers. While we have a moment,

406
00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:25.119
I'll talk to you whatever. I
don't care. I'm for advancing the

407
00:30:25.200 --> 00:30:30.119
game and guys being more skilled than
ever, like Victor women Yama. Yeah,

408
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:33.119
you only had nine points for twelve
oh four? What is this for

409
00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:41.480
him? Game thirteen fourteen in his
career and people are trying to take shots

410
00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:42.519
at him, always too skinny,
always to this. You know, I

411
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:47.759
didn't hear any of that stuff for
Sean Bradley and my new Bowl and guys

412
00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:52.000
who are just out there being oaths
and try to block shots. Victor women

413
00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:57.039
Yama plays like KD mixed with Ralph
Sampson, and you can't appreciate that guy,

414
00:30:57.680 --> 00:31:00.880
like you don't know what you're wanting. You don't know where this league

415
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:04.240
is going. You're left in the
past. You're stuck there with your member

416
00:31:04.319 --> 00:31:11.519
berries. Enjoy them. I hope
they taste sweet. Clippers win by twenty

417
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:15.240
five in San Antonio over the Spurs. Let's go to Jose and Southgate.

418
00:31:15.279 --> 00:31:21.400
Before you hear from the head coach, Jose, what's up, Adam?

419
00:31:21.920 --> 00:31:23.960
I didn't know you're gonna go to
meds early. Hold on, real quack,

420
00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:29.279
all right, there, Adam,
oh man, I get your stuff

421
00:31:29.319 --> 00:31:33.640
in order, all right. I
feel like you just had the clippers eighth

422
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:37.880
turnover. You know what, eight
did that for the whole game? That's

423
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:41.039
good? At him, all right, look anyway, look at him.

424
00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:45.920
I was ready to call it really
good already and not even see the game.

425
00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:48.240
Well, I saw half of the
game, and then I heard Cardos.

426
00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:52.960
All I heard was Daniel Tayas,
and then I saw us getting the

427
00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:56.960
shot up within seven six seconds.
And then on top of that, I

428
00:31:57.119 --> 00:32:00.279
heard Morris say right now that if
they didn't have clippers across the chest,

429
00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:05.039
you couldn't even recognized him. At
him, Look, this is call is

430
00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:07.440
for you and everybody over that clips
and dip. I don't know what you

431
00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:09.839
all been talking about, but you
heard my energy, I mean, keeping

432
00:32:09.880 --> 00:32:15.000
my optimistic faith at him, and
I love what I hear so far.

433
00:32:15.119 --> 00:32:17.559
It's only game. Oh like now, I can't even I could barely not

434
00:32:17.680 --> 00:32:21.079
turn it on my hands. Is
that early in the season. At him?

435
00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:23.680
I told you you said when he
got thirty to forty games with them

436
00:32:23.759 --> 00:32:28.119
healthy, and I and TYLERU said, we need ten to fifteen James to

437
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:32.400
what I say, expect good wins. We just beat a Gregg Popovich team

438
00:32:32.519 --> 00:32:36.480
with the number one dragt lion.
Well, well, hold on, hold

439
00:32:36.519 --> 00:32:38.160
on, hold on, hold on, hold on. They're three and eleven.

440
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:44.599
This is this is not this is
not Jerobe Tony Parker. Uh,

441
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:49.559
this is not Tim Duncan out there, David Robbinson. Let's cool our jets

442
00:32:49.599 --> 00:32:53.039
a little bit. It's a good
victory because of how much they were able

443
00:32:53.079 --> 00:33:00.440
to pour it on and pull away
and get their starters wrestlate that and they

444
00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:04.599
have the number one draft pick in
the position that we supposed to believe are

445
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:07.640
the week at that right, and
you're only as strong as your weak as

446
00:33:07.759 --> 00:33:12.119
lean and we just beat them by
how much? At them? Okay out

447
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:17.079
exactly right? So come on now, Adam. I love it right now.

448
00:33:17.160 --> 00:33:20.559
I love it. It's still early
in the season. I love it

449
00:33:20.559 --> 00:33:23.799
because I finally get to talk the
NBA with our schedule at them this season,

450
00:33:24.039 --> 00:33:29.079
especially this whole plain on Friday,
not playing till Monday, and then

451
00:33:29.400 --> 00:33:32.799
seventeen games in March. The more, Adam, And that's man, that's

452
00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:37.240
why we have the funny because we're
gonna get to the playoffs. The Clipper

453
00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:39.160
Nation. Finally, you just just
just stay with us, Just stay with

454
00:33:39.319 --> 00:33:43.119
us. They got bigger goals than
just the playoffs. Did you hear James

455
00:33:43.200 --> 00:33:45.640
Harden post game after the last one, he said, stick with us.

456
00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:52.000
We got bigger things in mind,
bigger fish to fry out there. Did

457
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:54.079
you hear that, Adam, you
need to stop going crazy down clipper talker.

458
00:33:54.279 --> 00:33:59.680
You gotta stop saying this and that
fans. No, Hey, Jose

459
00:34:00.559 --> 00:34:04.799
who was right about having Russell Westbrook
come off the bench. It just so

460
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:08.880
happens that everything I was saying now
is turn this team around with James Harden

461
00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:13.880
being the lone ball handler in the
starting unit. Since then, they have

462
00:34:14.000 --> 00:34:19.960
won two straight. I said there
were concerns because they were trying to play

463
00:34:20.119 --> 00:34:23.800
James Harden and Russell Westbrook in the
starting backcourt together and there was just a

464
00:34:23.880 --> 00:34:28.000
conflict there. They couldn't figure it
out. That's not going to work.

465
00:34:29.239 --> 00:34:32.679
And you know what out of you
also said that don't put it on you,

466
00:34:32.840 --> 00:34:37.079
but you feel that bone tailand is
the key to all this. And

467
00:34:37.199 --> 00:34:42.039
guess what Tyler said that you know
what we're in the tessis rotation. Bone

468
00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:45.719
Tiland might be out for another eight
to ten games. Yeah, I said

469
00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:49.639
that before they had James Harden.
He's a little bit different now. No,

470
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:51.920
no, no, I'm say he's
right back you know he's right back

471
00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:53.599
in there. He's not right back
in there. No, no, no.

472
00:34:53.719 --> 00:34:58.760
He came in in garbage time,
he played four minutes tonight. He's

473
00:34:58.840 --> 00:35:02.039
not back in the rotation. Norman
Powell has been too good. What are

474
00:35:02.079 --> 00:35:06.079
you supposed to do with Norman Pale's
out there shooting forty five percent from three

475
00:35:06.119 --> 00:35:08.519
and he had nineteen points. I
mean, talked about him tonight, five

476
00:35:08.599 --> 00:35:13.760
to twelve and critical three pointers.
He's been hitting for this team lately.

477
00:35:14.199 --> 00:35:17.360
Him in for Terrence Man with the
rest of the starting lineup has been a

478
00:35:17.440 --> 00:35:22.000
nice five man rotation. And you
know what that is, right? You

479
00:35:22.039 --> 00:35:27.039
want to know why that's been a
nice because he's a straight you know what,

480
00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:29.280
When I get the ball, I'm
gonna shoot it. And we have

481
00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:31.920
a lot of players who they're gonna
get to their spots, but if their

482
00:35:31.960 --> 00:35:35.719
spot's not there, they're gonna neither
pass that ball. And we need a

483
00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:38.159
ready to shoot a guy. And
Norman Powell is the guy too right now

484
00:35:38.679 --> 00:35:42.159
if we have it at him,
That's what I'm saying. Yeah, everything.

485
00:35:42.280 --> 00:35:45.039
Everywhere you go. We have it
at him, We have it at

486
00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:49.119
him. I love it. It's
twenty two in a row. But I'm

487
00:35:49.159 --> 00:35:51.760
here to say this. Let's see. Let's see if they can get back

488
00:35:51.800 --> 00:35:57.639
to five hundred by the time Friday
night comes. Huh oh oh, Adam,

489
00:35:57.960 --> 00:35:59.559
I don't come on now, you
know. Oh, that's what I

490
00:35:59.599 --> 00:36:01.840
want to say. So we beat
the Spurs, we're gonna beat him again.

491
00:36:02.400 --> 00:36:06.800
Technically, we're gonna double down on
the Pelicans, and then we got

492
00:36:07.000 --> 00:36:13.559
Dallas and the Nuggets coming to town. Let's go left clapart, all right.

493
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:17.480
A peek into the schedule from Jose
in Southgate. I like the energy

494
00:36:17.679 --> 00:36:22.320
as always he brings it. He's
excited about this victory. I am two

495
00:36:22.480 --> 00:36:25.880
in just the way they won.
Yes, it's just San Antonio, but

496
00:36:27.000 --> 00:36:30.599
that's why you got to win big
and make sure you're getting Kawhi Leonard rest.

497
00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:35.159
Paul George only had to play thirty
two minutes. James Harden only had

498
00:36:35.199 --> 00:36:38.000
to play twenty eight. But I'm
telling you, Harden hitting that floater early

499
00:36:38.079 --> 00:36:42.960
over Wemby after he cooked him with
a faking the step back move and then

500
00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:45.519
went by him. And then Harden
fouled on a three pointer, so he

501
00:36:45.679 --> 00:36:49.400
was one of the three guys foult
on a three pointer by San Sonio.

502
00:36:49.440 --> 00:36:52.280
I think it was him and then
norm how twice it wasn't Paul George,

503
00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:55.360
it was Hardened. But he had
a beautiful pass to Tice for a layup,

504
00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:00.360
just kind of a wrap around between
two defenders for sin into Ono.

505
00:37:00.440 --> 00:37:05.199
Doesn't matter. Harden had a layup
late in the second quarter after a big

506
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:09.599
three hit. There was one play
I didn't like early in the third quarter,

507
00:37:10.159 --> 00:37:14.599
little too much of a dribbling exhibition
into a step back three pointer where

508
00:37:14.599 --> 00:37:17.320
they didn't just run their offense.
But then afterwards Harden has a no look

509
00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:22.000
to eats a Zubos, then a
time then a three out of a timeout

510
00:37:22.039 --> 00:37:27.159
midway through the third a no look
to PG for a layup after a lob

511
00:37:27.239 --> 00:37:30.760
pass to Kawhi Leonard. Those are
the two plays I have highlighted at nauseum

512
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:37.039
here to tell you he's making life
easier for Kawhi and Paul George. He

513
00:37:37.159 --> 00:37:40.039
has so much to give to this
team. And if you think James Harden

514
00:37:40.159 --> 00:37:44.400
is just a score, maybe check
out the fact that he had ten assists

515
00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:52.519
to zero turnovers tonight Clippers with a
total of thirty assists to just seven turnovers.

516
00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:57.679
I credited Jose and Southgate with having
their eighth with the way he stumbled

517
00:37:57.719 --> 00:38:00.079
out of the block there, but
he ended strong his phone call like the

518
00:38:00.159 --> 00:38:05.039
Clippers did win in the fourth quarter
thirty three to twenty two. Let's hear

519
00:38:05.079 --> 00:38:07.480
from Coach Lou post game after the
Clippers go on to win one twenty four

520
00:38:07.519 --> 00:38:14.000
to ninety nine in San Antonio in
this two game mini series in San Antonio,

521
00:38:14.119 --> 00:38:15.360
next game coming up on Wednesday.
He was Coach Lou post game,

522
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:19.480
just we played a little better.
You know, I think we're starting to

523
00:38:19.480 --> 00:38:22.239
get comfortable understanding, you know,
the different different role as far as you

524
00:38:22.280 --> 00:38:24.760
know, Russ coming off the bench
and how we want to play. And

525
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:29.000
then PG coming back in with that
second unit as well, you know,

526
00:38:29.079 --> 00:38:32.239
playing through him a lot more,
and so that was that was the biggest

527
00:38:32.280 --> 00:38:35.639
thing in a thing, just playing
through PG more in that second unit.

528
00:38:36.400 --> 00:38:38.239
He kind of got going, got
his rhythm and so just you know,

529
00:38:38.280 --> 00:38:40.480
like I said, still just you
know, figuring out. We understand the

530
00:38:40.559 --> 00:38:43.880
rotation is what we want to do, and it's gonna be a process.

531
00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:45.840
You know, we understand that.
So tonight it was a step in the

532
00:38:45.920 --> 00:38:49.559
right direction. You know, was
a good win for us the way we've

533
00:38:49.559 --> 00:38:51.639
been, you know, struggling,
but it was good to see us,

534
00:38:51.679 --> 00:38:53.599
you know, ball moving around the
ball, hopping. Thirty assists, only

535
00:38:53.679 --> 00:38:57.199
seven turnovers, you know, So
we talked about that, taking care of

536
00:38:57.239 --> 00:39:01.199
the basketball, and so that was
good for us. Exact numbers, but

537
00:39:01.280 --> 00:39:05.880
it seems like why is getting a
lot morg set shots catching shoot shots O

538
00:39:06.079 --> 00:39:07.920
last couple of games. That's something
that you've seen, is that when you're

539
00:39:08.000 --> 00:39:12.119
enverurging to take more because I liked
getting rid of the Yeah, I mean

540
00:39:12.159 --> 00:39:15.039
him and James both, you know, just being comfortable taking those catching shoot

541
00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:16.400
threes. And you know, James, like I said, ten assists,

542
00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:19.880
no turnovers, you know, taking
care of the basketball and making the right

543
00:39:19.920 --> 00:39:22.400
play. You know, guys are
gonna get open shots, so we gotta

544
00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:23.840
be ready to take them, and
vice versas for James with PG and Kawhi

545
00:39:23.960 --> 00:39:27.079
run and pick and roll, he's
gonna get open shots. So we got

546
00:39:27.159 --> 00:39:30.039
to be able to take those as
well. So you know, it's coming

547
00:39:30.079 --> 00:39:31.320
along. You know, like I
said, step in the right direction,

548
00:39:31.639 --> 00:39:35.719
it's still gonna be a process of
just you don't understand the floor of the

549
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:40.679
game. But it was how dare
how dare they cut off Coach lou like

550
00:39:40.760 --> 00:39:46.639
he's at the Oscars with the music
there and the curtains closing. But I'll

551
00:39:46.719 --> 00:39:51.119
touch up Paul what he was talking
about a little bit with Paul George in

552
00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:54.840
that second unit there at the start
in the fourth quarter, to start things

553
00:39:54.920 --> 00:39:59.840
off, it was PG Norman Pale, Daniel Tice, PJ. Tucker,

554
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:05.559
and Russell Westbrook. They were the
guys that really opened things up. After

555
00:40:05.719 --> 00:40:10.000
it was ninety one seventy seven entering
the fourth, after they let their foot

556
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:14.639
off the gas a little bit where
they win about four and a half minutes

557
00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:19.920
without scoring. Late in the third
quarter they had just I'd leave it was

558
00:40:20.039 --> 00:40:22.360
five points in four and a half
minutes to end the third quarter, I

559
00:40:22.400 --> 00:40:30.000
should say. But then Paul George
started cooking. There was some great synchronicity

560
00:40:30.440 --> 00:40:35.480
between those five guys in the fourth
and a lot of Paul George. But

561
00:40:35.599 --> 00:40:39.159
Norm Powell had a tough in one
layup with the left hand. Gotta give

562
00:40:39.199 --> 00:40:44.280
him more love. He had a
great ballgame for them. Russell Westbrook driving

563
00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:50.039
layup and then finding Daniel Tice for
a big dunk. Sometimes a dunk is

564
00:40:50.079 --> 00:40:52.440
more than the dunk. It's an
energy play. It also gives you a

565
00:40:52.519 --> 00:40:58.400
chance to go back set your defense. You love seeing that. But then

566
00:40:58.559 --> 00:41:02.000
eventually it was time out. Around
the four minute mark, the backups came

567
00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:07.960
in a mere coffee, musa diabat
Terrence Man. Carlo Amennez pointed this out

568
00:41:07.039 --> 00:41:15.159
wisely. He thought Terrence Man came
in with bones Highland mussa diabate, Norman

569
00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:20.800
pell a mere coffee, just to
try to find a rhythm offensively, try

570
00:41:20.840 --> 00:41:24.519
to get a shot to go.
Missed a three pointer. So I guess

571
00:41:24.559 --> 00:41:28.480
you could say he's struggling there with
his shot, but that's not what he

572
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:32.679
does best for this team overall.
Now, the Clippers' new starting lineup,

573
00:41:32.719 --> 00:41:38.679
in two games, they're plus thirty
eight in thirty minutes. They have outscored

574
00:41:38.679 --> 00:41:44.360
their opponent by thirty eight points in
thirty minutes. I don't know why you

575
00:41:44.400 --> 00:41:46.480
guys couldn't see the vision. Those
that were saying, oh, they'll get

576
00:41:46.519 --> 00:41:50.599
it to work with Russ and James
Harden in the starting lineup, that was

577
00:41:50.639 --> 00:41:53.079
never going to work. Many of
you were pointing out the advanced stats of

578
00:41:53.719 --> 00:41:59.800
Russell Westbrook being good with the starters
and not James Harden. Well, a

579
00:42:00.039 --> 00:42:04.119
lot of that was earlier in the
season when they got off to a hot

580
00:42:04.159 --> 00:42:07.119
start beat up on some bad teams, including the San Antonio Spurs. Those

581
00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:12.199
numbers were skewed. They were never
gonna hold up. They were never gonna

582
00:42:12.199 --> 00:42:16.480
be sustainable long term. James Harden
as your third best player is the move.

583
00:42:17.400 --> 00:42:21.400
I believe the Clippers coach Low in
the front office all know this,

584
00:42:22.039 --> 00:42:27.400
and Russ knew it, and that's
why he's sacrificing. And he played very

585
00:42:27.480 --> 00:42:30.159
well tonight in his role. I
thought after a couple ill advised shots,

586
00:42:30.199 --> 00:42:35.320
Early couldn't get to go. I
think all four of his makes were at

587
00:42:35.360 --> 00:42:38.719
the rim, and he was also
finding guys there like Daniel Tice. But

588
00:42:38.760 --> 00:42:45.239
the Clippers starting lineup tonight a plus
eighteen and fourteen minutes after they were a

589
00:42:45.320 --> 00:42:49.760
plus twenty in sixteen minutes against the
Rockets Friday night. So yeah, plus

590
00:42:49.840 --> 00:42:55.400
thirty eight in thirty minutes through two
games seems good. Who could have predicted

591
00:42:55.440 --> 00:42:59.519
this? Oh me, I don't
know. I told you a billion times

592
00:43:00.599 --> 00:43:04.320
this is this is how you have
to run it. It's no disrespect to

593
00:43:04.440 --> 00:43:07.559
Russ. They need what he brings. They need his leadership, his heart,

594
00:43:07.679 --> 00:43:13.719
some of those intangibles, but also
his pace and downhill attack. They

595
00:43:13.800 --> 00:43:16.519
just don't need it in the starting
unit next to James Harden when he's trying

596
00:43:16.519 --> 00:43:21.119
to run pick and roll and it's
congested because you have two non shooters out

597
00:43:21.159 --> 00:43:25.519
there and Russ and a Viza Zubats. That was doom from the start.

598
00:43:28.159 --> 00:43:30.920
It's not surprising to me if they
lost five in a row when they brought

599
00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:35.599
in James. That's why I won't
see what they do about the PJ.

600
00:43:35.760 --> 00:43:38.159
Tucker. It beats a Zubats minutes
that I want to say are over a

601
00:43:38.239 --> 00:43:43.840
minus fifty and about forty five minutes
so far together on the court. We'll

602
00:43:43.880 --> 00:43:45.639
see. I know they know,
they know the excuse me, they know

603
00:43:45.760 --> 00:43:50.519
the numbers. Easy for me to
say. Coach Lou was quoting some of

604
00:43:50.599 --> 00:43:54.239
them last Thursday at practice before some
of the reporters could spit him out.

605
00:43:54.960 --> 00:43:59.800
Coach Lou, he had him on
the tip of his tongue. He's got

606
00:43:59.880 --> 00:44:04.760
a beautiful mind. He's a pretty
brilliant guy. I've heard some things about

607
00:44:04.920 --> 00:44:09.800
him and numbers that are extraordinary.
So I think he plays it advanced numbers,

608
00:44:09.880 --> 00:44:15.079
with eye tests. It's not one
thing or the other. But this

609
00:44:15.280 --> 00:44:21.559
is the starting lineup. To me, this is what you need. Start

610
00:44:21.639 --> 00:44:28.280
Russ with the second unit with Paul
George. They have familiarity from OKC and

611
00:44:29.079 --> 00:44:34.760
more James Harden next to Kawhi Leonard. It's been effective and it's only going

612
00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:39.239
to get better. Guys, we're
talking about James Harden, who is almost

613
00:44:39.360 --> 00:44:44.679
free points in the pick and roll. He's getting a point and a half.

614
00:44:45.039 --> 00:44:47.760
The Clippers are per pick and roll
that he has run and he hasn't

615
00:44:47.760 --> 00:44:52.599
even run that many yet. He's
just so devastating in that area. It's

616
00:44:52.679 --> 00:44:58.679
so difficult to stop for the defense. But with a team this balanced next

617
00:44:58.719 --> 00:45:01.440
to him offensively defensively, I don't
know if he's ever had this much balance

618
00:45:01.480 --> 00:45:07.960
on both sides of the basketball,
both sides of the court. I am

619
00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:12.760
intrigued. I am excited by this, But they gotta handle business on Wednesday,

620
00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:16.960
and then you need to get some
victories against high end competition. Pelicans,

621
00:45:17.360 --> 00:45:22.840
then Dallas on a back to back, then the Denver Nuggets next Monday.

622
00:45:23.079 --> 00:45:27.920
Can't overlook the San Antonio Spurs team
though, yet they're coached by Greg

623
00:45:28.000 --> 00:45:30.800
Popovich. They're gonna try to bounce
back. They're not looking to get to

624
00:45:30.880 --> 00:45:36.159
ten losses in a row. More
Clippers start coming up next. We will

625
00:45:36.199 --> 00:45:39.360
have Will Updyke on from Clips and
Dips. Jose and Southgate kind of set

626
00:45:39.400 --> 00:45:45.280
me up for that talking about the
podcast. So I checked my text messages.

627
00:45:45.280 --> 00:45:51.079
Wait a second, as Will still
in. Yeah, he just asked

628
00:45:51.079 --> 00:45:55.159
me about what I'm bringing for Thanksgiving? Side dishes, green bean cast role

629
00:45:55.199 --> 00:46:00.239
as my jam? Can I make
it known I ask someone else to make

630
00:46:00.280 --> 00:46:08.039
it and beg them and flip my
twenty please that and Pillsbury Croissant rolls whole

631
00:46:08.079 --> 00:46:13.719
stick of butter on each one.
What run like ten miles every day?

632
00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:17.119
Now? More Clippers stock next,
they win by twenty five. It's marathon,

633
00:46:17.199 --> 00:46:21.239
not a sprint. They're five and
seven now. They're trying to get

634
00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:25.079
back to five hundred long regular season. But you got to load up and

635
00:46:25.280 --> 00:46:30.760
beat up on the lesser teams.
You're listening to a FI seventy LA Sports.

636
00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:36.760
The LA Clippers continue their hunt for
a Lario B. They still want

637
00:46:36.800 --> 00:46:39.360
to get that Lario beat. Don't
miss a moment all season long. This

638
00:46:39.679 --> 00:46:45.800
is the La Clippers Audio Network.
Clippers win by twenty five in San Antonio

639
00:46:45.000 --> 00:46:49.840
over the Spurs. It's got this
text from your radio voice to the Clippers

640
00:46:49.880 --> 00:46:52.519
and Carlo Jimenez. The Clippers had
thirty assists and fifteen steals tonight. It's

641
00:46:52.639 --> 00:46:57.280
just the fifth time in the last
ten years that the Clippers have had at

642
00:46:57.400 --> 00:47:01.840
least thirty assists and fifteen steel in
a single game. So you can downplay

643
00:47:01.880 --> 00:47:05.840
it, you can try diminish it
because it was against San Antonio and they're

644
00:47:05.840 --> 00:47:10.000
three and eleven now, But the
Clippers absolutely did what they had to do

645
00:47:10.599 --> 00:47:15.239
to get starter's rest, to get
ready a day off and then right back

646
00:47:15.320 --> 00:47:17.960
at it against the Spurs on Wednesday. Coming up, we'll hear from Daniel

647
00:47:19.000 --> 00:47:22.559
Tys post game. But joining the
show now is Will Updyke from Clips and

648
00:47:22.719 --> 00:47:27.480
Dip. As we already had a
mention of the podcast from a caller earlier,

649
00:47:27.599 --> 00:47:30.119
Will, well, how are you
doing? Thanks for doing a little

650
00:47:30.119 --> 00:47:32.760
Clips and double Dip tonight here on
Clippers Talk. Absolutely, you know,

651
00:47:32.880 --> 00:47:37.760
I'm I'm contractually obliged to be here
after any win, so I'm here.

652
00:47:37.800 --> 00:47:40.760
I am I'm excited. I think
that we got a lot more of these

653
00:47:40.800 --> 00:47:46.239
coming up. It's weird how you
just like lock Charles in a closet whenever

654
00:47:46.280 --> 00:47:51.000
the Clippers win and he's supposed to
come on like it's kind of aggressive,

655
00:47:51.119 --> 00:47:53.559
but you know what it fits for
this Clippers team with that aggressive defense tonight,

656
00:47:53.679 --> 00:47:58.000
holding San Antonio to just ninety nine
points a team that was fourth and

657
00:47:58.159 --> 00:48:02.559
pace, and they shot just four
seven from the outside, only attempted fourteen

658
00:48:02.639 --> 00:48:07.480
free throws. But I mentioned Daniel
Tice coming in. How have you felt

659
00:48:07.599 --> 00:48:12.079
about him through two games? Now? Will and the energy that he likes

660
00:48:12.119 --> 00:48:15.920
to bring out there. I thought
that he looked a lot better tonight.

661
00:48:16.079 --> 00:48:22.679
I kind of had some questions in
that first game if maybe he was struggling

662
00:48:22.760 --> 00:48:24.880
to sort of get back into game
shape. I know that he was unhappy

663
00:48:24.960 --> 00:48:29.239
with his playing time there in Indiana, and it just seemed like at times

664
00:48:29.320 --> 00:48:31.960
he was a little winded. Certainly
looked a lot more effectives to night,

665
00:48:32.199 --> 00:48:37.079
you know, against Albeit, I
feel like overall, this is my thing

666
00:48:37.159 --> 00:48:38.440
overall is that this was a great
tune up game. But sorry, back

667
00:48:38.480 --> 00:48:42.119
to Tys. I mean, I
don't know what more you could want from

668
00:48:42.159 --> 00:48:46.559
the guy? Uh nineteen and seven
h hit the three pointer. So he's

669
00:48:46.559 --> 00:48:50.960
shooting one hundred percent from three as
a Clipper. I don't really know what

670
00:48:51.119 --> 00:48:55.239
more what more to say, what
like, it's assuming that at bare minimum,

671
00:48:55.320 --> 00:48:59.519
right, he can just be a
stop gap that is a portion of

672
00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:05.679
what Mason Plumley provided while he recovers
from that injury. I mean, I

673
00:49:05.760 --> 00:49:08.280
think it's pretty darn good. Yeah, why not? Where were you going

674
00:49:08.360 --> 00:49:14.800
there with just as being more of
a tune up game. Well, I

675
00:49:15.320 --> 00:49:19.039
feel like, you know, this
is the first blowout in the Harden era.

676
00:49:20.159 --> 00:49:24.400
This was just an opportunity I feel
like for the Clippers to I don't

677
00:49:24.480 --> 00:49:29.239
like playing down the competition, but
a team that's in a little bit worse

678
00:49:29.400 --> 00:49:31.199
rate than some of the teams they
faced. And I know you can feel,

679
00:49:31.199 --> 00:49:34.440
however you want to feel about some
of those losses in the sixth game,

680
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:37.840
losing streak that certainly spare, But
I feel like this was the kind

681
00:49:37.880 --> 00:49:42.440
of game that they needed to play
at their speed, be able to sort

682
00:49:42.480 --> 00:49:45.599
of play around with things, get
everybody involved where the stakes are a little

683
00:49:45.599 --> 00:49:49.119
bit lower, but we can kind
of see things start to build. And

684
00:49:49.199 --> 00:49:52.320
I thought that that I thought that
what we've seen from the last game to

685
00:49:52.440 --> 00:49:55.599
now we have seen a little bit
more of that, which was very concerning

686
00:49:55.719 --> 00:50:00.039
through the losing streak. But a
game like this on the road, I

687
00:50:00.119 --> 00:50:02.159
still do have to you know,
you still do have to walk into somebody

688
00:50:02.199 --> 00:50:06.199
else's arena and come out with a
win. I thought this was just kind

689
00:50:06.239 --> 00:50:10.159
of the perfect setting for this thing
to marinate a little bit more. What

690
00:50:10.320 --> 00:50:14.239
did you make us some of the
lineups out there? Coach lou talked about

691
00:50:14.239 --> 00:50:16.239
it post game. He liked Paul
George with a lot of guys there in

692
00:50:16.320 --> 00:50:21.960
the second unit, and he opened
things up in that fourth quarter, next

693
00:50:22.039 --> 00:50:25.559
to Tye, next to PJ.
Tucker, next to russ In Norn Powell.

694
00:50:25.639 --> 00:50:29.440
They were playing small, but you
could say they were also playing big

695
00:50:29.599 --> 00:50:32.119
with their play out there. And
Paul George was just spectacular down the stretch.

696
00:50:34.320 --> 00:50:36.840
I mean, Paul George is incredible. He's the kind of player who

697
00:50:36.880 --> 00:50:38.599
can lift any sort of lineup.
And you know, you've talked about it

698
00:50:39.239 --> 00:50:44.800
since early in this season. I
really do think a lot of success is

699
00:50:44.880 --> 00:50:49.400
gonna come in how we're able to
effectively manage both superstars of two to one

700
00:50:49.519 --> 00:50:52.199
three, And I think that's one
of those issues of the second unit is

701
00:50:52.679 --> 00:50:58.239
even with one of them, like
even with Paul George with if there's like

702
00:50:58.280 --> 00:51:01.639
three non shooters out there, it's
very difficult. But they're going to find

703
00:51:01.719 --> 00:51:06.599
ways to sort of mitigate that even
if they do end up having to continue

704
00:51:06.599 --> 00:51:09.480
to play a PJ. Tucker like
fifteen plus minutes. I really liked not

705
00:51:09.599 --> 00:51:15.079
only the use of the lineups,
but I thought the shot distribution was really

706
00:51:15.199 --> 00:51:19.079
good as well. You got the
guys getting those attempts that they need to

707
00:51:19.159 --> 00:51:22.639
both stay in rhythm and I mean
ideally your most efficient scorers are going to

708
00:51:22.719 --> 00:51:28.000
continue to put points on the board. So I thought that that was reassuring

709
00:51:28.119 --> 00:51:30.599
for sure, especially when a shout
out my dude, Norm Powell, he

710
00:51:30.760 --> 00:51:37.199
was my player of the game from
the podcast coming in finish with nineteen and

711
00:51:37.320 --> 00:51:40.880
five with two steals. You know, I said, I thought as soon

712
00:51:40.920 --> 00:51:44.920
as Harden came here, it was
one of those things that I love the

713
00:51:45.039 --> 00:51:47.800
idea of the spacing, and I
feel like he's a guy, maybe even

714
00:51:47.880 --> 00:51:52.039
more so than than than Russ.
No discredits to Russ, but who can

715
00:51:52.119 --> 00:51:57.639
make things really really easy for Norm
when he's out there and we've heard Norm

716
00:51:57.719 --> 00:52:01.920
say hey Ethan, and he loves
the catch and shoot. Loves the catch

717
00:52:01.960 --> 00:52:06.039
and shoot, does not feel that's
below him, does not need to necessarily

718
00:52:06.119 --> 00:52:12.159
have the ball in his hands to
be scoring in terms of creating for himself.

719
00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:15.599
So I think that that is going
to pay dividend. I loved him

720
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:19.880
in the closing lineup and in stints
in the last game, and I love

721
00:52:19.960 --> 00:52:22.880
the continuation here. Those those twelve
field goal attempts. That's like, you

722
00:52:22.920 --> 00:52:24.760
know, right where I want to
be. I think he needs to be

723
00:52:24.800 --> 00:52:29.559
in that twelve to fifteen range every
game. With how efficient he is as

724
00:52:29.559 --> 00:52:32.320
a scorer. You bring up the
catch and shoot threes from norm He's going

725
00:52:32.400 --> 00:52:36.239
into this one, he was shooting
fifty one percent in those situations. Kawhi

726
00:52:36.320 --> 00:52:39.280
Leonard at fifty five percent coming into
this game, and he started zero for

727
00:52:39.360 --> 00:52:43.480
three, but then knocked down a
couple. He got a big dunk in

728
00:52:43.559 --> 00:52:46.159
the second quarter, then a steal
on Johnson after a board and dunked it

729
00:52:46.280 --> 00:52:51.519
just kind of took it away and
nobody saw dunk was disrespectful. I loved

730
00:52:51.559 --> 00:52:55.159
it. I loved the crowd booing
so loud at Kawhi as soon as that

731
00:52:55.280 --> 00:52:59.880
moment happened. He also in the
third quarter, had a pump fake on

732
00:53:00.159 --> 00:53:04.559
Wemby where he went by him and
he ended up with a no look to

733
00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:08.920
Zoo for a dunk in that quarter
two. That was just beautiful from Kawhi

734
00:53:09.079 --> 00:53:13.480
Leonard. The game just looked so
easy for him, and it wasn't,

735
00:53:13.559 --> 00:53:15.519
you know, his most efficient night. I guess, twenty one points on

736
00:53:15.599 --> 00:53:20.000
seventeen shots. But I like the
fact that most shots so far. I

737
00:53:20.079 --> 00:53:23.400
believe he's gotten up now next to
James Harden. Seventeen something to build on

738
00:53:23.519 --> 00:53:27.039
because he started, oh for three
and then I think he got to seven

739
00:53:27.079 --> 00:53:30.920
shots in the first quarter. Anyways, he seems a little bit more aggressive

740
00:53:30.000 --> 00:53:34.639
right now. Yeah, yeah,
absolutely, and I think that's gonna come.

741
00:53:34.760 --> 00:53:38.599
I you know, that was my
one uh I guess that was like

742
00:53:38.679 --> 00:53:43.159
sort of my one negative of the
win over the Rockets. Was just I

743
00:53:43.840 --> 00:53:49.239
felt that he was being way too
deferential, and you know, it's understandable,

744
00:53:49.320 --> 00:53:51.880
you're not trying to ruffle feathers or
whatever. But I think that he's

745
00:53:51.960 --> 00:53:57.119
definitely coming more into his own with
the supporting cast. You know, he's

746
00:53:57.199 --> 00:54:02.400
been he's been really solid all he's
and safe for like one game. But

747
00:54:02.519 --> 00:54:07.400
I think, you know that is
continuing to sort of coalesce with these players

748
00:54:07.519 --> 00:54:10.719
being able to play off of one
another, and I'm excited to see how

749
00:54:10.800 --> 00:54:15.519
that looks when we can have everybody
sort of running at full steam, but

750
00:54:15.599 --> 00:54:19.440
we can still get just a little
bit more field goal attempts, which will

751
00:54:19.440 --> 00:54:22.559
come with offensive rebounding and a little
bit more pace. But if we could

752
00:54:22.719 --> 00:54:25.000
get both Kawhi and Paul George two
closer to them, you know that like

753
00:54:25.199 --> 00:54:30.400
twenty field goal attempts per game sort
of number and still keep everybody clicking,

754
00:54:30.800 --> 00:54:35.320
That's when I think this team offensively
is going to look really, really dangerous.

755
00:54:35.719 --> 00:54:37.400
Now, well, I'm not asking
for one of your epic rants,

756
00:54:37.440 --> 00:54:40.480
but I'm gonna throw some red meat
out there because we've kind of been on

757
00:54:40.519 --> 00:54:45.920
the wave the same wavelength when it
comes to Russell Westbrook and James Harden and

758
00:54:45.039 --> 00:54:49.320
what needed to happen here, And
with Russ off the bench, they're two

759
00:54:49.360 --> 00:54:52.400
and zero so far, James Harden
looks more comfortable. I just don't understand

760
00:54:52.400 --> 00:54:55.119
how people can't see the vision of
you know, the guy who led the

761
00:54:55.239 --> 00:54:59.599
league and assists last season has done
it multiple times, and yet some people

762
00:54:59.639 --> 00:55:01.679
are saying he's just a dribbler,
He's just an isolation player. He ends

763
00:55:01.760 --> 00:55:07.320
up with ten assist to zero turnovers
tonight. This is the formula. I

764
00:55:07.360 --> 00:55:10.719
don't understand why there's this divide in
some areas of Clipper Nation and why you

765
00:55:10.760 --> 00:55:15.480
guys can't see the vision of James
Harden being the third option and that not

766
00:55:15.679 --> 00:55:17.960
just raising their floor in the regular
season, but you think about that,

767
00:55:19.079 --> 00:55:22.639
if it raises your floor and you're
a higher seed, then it raises your

768
00:55:22.719 --> 00:55:25.760
ceiling overall. And him being a
third option in a playoff series, I

769
00:55:25.960 --> 00:55:31.079
love that. Yeah. No,
I mean, look, I understand the

770
00:55:31.159 --> 00:55:36.239
complaints on Harden's game, but my
thing is, if you're just an isolation

771
00:55:36.320 --> 00:55:38.079
store score, if you're just a
dribbler, how are you leaving the league

772
00:55:38.079 --> 00:55:42.360
in assists? Those two things don't
really make sense. Look, he's just

773
00:55:42.400 --> 00:55:45.239
a three level score in a way
that Russ isn't. And this isn't to

774
00:55:45.320 --> 00:55:47.880
discredit Russ. I think that Russ
can be phenomenal off the bench. I

775
00:55:47.960 --> 00:55:52.960
think there might be situations where Harden
maybe doesn't have it going and we see

776
00:55:52.079 --> 00:55:54.880
Russ in the closing lineup. I'm
not opposed to that. We know what

777
00:55:55.039 --> 00:55:58.840
he can look like. Next to
those two stars. But for right now,

778
00:55:59.079 --> 00:56:01.920
it just makes the most sense to
use the guy that you gave up

779
00:56:02.039 --> 00:56:06.920
a first round pick for in the
starting lineup. And I know that,

780
00:56:07.320 --> 00:56:09.639
like I don't believe necessarily in the
sunken cost fallacy, but I mean,

781
00:56:09.880 --> 00:56:14.480
you have to at least try if
you're willing to give up that much,

782
00:56:14.760 --> 00:56:17.559
especially if you look at a guy
like Nick Patoombs flourishing in Philadelphia, it

783
00:56:17.599 --> 00:56:22.239
would be foolish to not at least
give a try to both James Harden in

784
00:56:22.280 --> 00:56:25.320
the starting line up and the guy
that we said was going to be in

785
00:56:25.360 --> 00:56:30.480
the starting lineup from the beginning in
parents Man. So I think it was

786
00:56:30.519 --> 00:56:32.199
the right way to go. And
that's not a discredit on Russ. I

787
00:56:32.320 --> 00:56:36.480
just feel like there's this weird thing
going on right now in the fan base

788
00:56:36.800 --> 00:56:39.760
and both Clippers fans and specifically Russ
fans, where this is like a personal

789
00:56:40.039 --> 00:56:45.239
like this is a personal assault or
an attack, and it's just not Things

790
00:56:45.480 --> 00:56:49.920
weren't working. They don't work with
those two together. That was exposed in

791
00:56:49.960 --> 00:56:52.719
the playoffs when they both played together
in Houston. They were much younger in

792
00:56:52.760 --> 00:56:58.000
Oklahoma City. So I'm not going
to count that against them, but it's

793
00:56:58.119 --> 00:57:02.760
working right now. And I just
don't know why the Clippers first win streak

794
00:57:02.840 --> 00:57:07.320
in a while, why there's any
need to question that. If it ain't

795
00:57:07.360 --> 00:57:09.239
broke, don't fix it. Yeah, and it's not that we don't like

796
00:57:09.440 --> 00:57:15.000
Russ, but not at all.
We have to be honest about James Harden

797
00:57:15.280 --> 00:57:17.880
is the better player. He's the
better playmaker, he's the much better shooter.

798
00:57:19.000 --> 00:57:22.760
As you mentioned in a three level
scorer. He does things at a

799
00:57:22.880 --> 00:57:27.559
higher level than any point guard they've
had since CP three. And that's the

800
00:57:27.679 --> 00:57:31.440
truth. And Russell Westbrook can still
thrive in the second unit, and I

801
00:57:31.480 --> 00:57:35.119
thought we saw some of that tonight. He was much better. He had

802
00:57:35.199 --> 00:57:38.440
six assists, two zero turnovers.
He was a plus seven ten points,

803
00:57:38.480 --> 00:57:42.000
four of eleven shooting. I didn't
like some of the jump shots, but

804
00:57:42.199 --> 00:57:45.559
he started to get to the basket
afterwards, was finding guys and making life

805
00:57:45.599 --> 00:57:47.920
easier for Daniel Tice. I don't
know how many assists of his, I

806
00:57:49.000 --> 00:57:51.679
want to say three of them.
At least half of them were to Tye.

807
00:57:51.760 --> 00:57:54.639
But it's James freaking Harden. What
are we talking about here? Like,

808
00:57:55.000 --> 00:58:00.039
it's not about who you like it's
about the Clippers winning ball games.

809
00:58:00.119 --> 00:58:07.039
It's about the team. It shouldn't
be I'm team Russ or I'm team James

810
00:58:07.119 --> 00:58:10.880
Harden, your team Clippers. It's
about doing what's best for them well,

811
00:58:10.960 --> 00:58:15.559
and it's not. I mean,
look, it's not even about skill set,

812
00:58:15.639 --> 00:58:17.719
although James Harden at this point in
both of their career is the more

813
00:58:17.800 --> 00:58:22.639
talented player in my view, it's
about fit, and clearly he's the better

814
00:58:22.760 --> 00:58:25.800
fit if you're looking at the long
game, if you're looking at the long

815
00:58:25.920 --> 00:58:30.679
view of what this team could be
and optimizing them with their most dangerous lineups

816
00:58:30.719 --> 00:58:35.719
on both ends of the flour.
That's just hardened. That's hardened for me.

817
00:58:36.039 --> 00:58:37.840
Well, to me, it's the
skill set makes him a better fit.

818
00:58:37.960 --> 00:58:43.079
But I got what you're saying though. Also he's at Will Updyke at

819
00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:50.239
Will Up d y k e on
X of course does the greatest podcast.

820
00:58:50.559 --> 00:58:52.360
That's at least some people say that
every once in a while they walk up

821
00:58:52.360 --> 00:58:57.880
at Kryptos. Yeah, once in
a while. It's called Clips and Dip.

822
00:58:58.719 --> 00:59:04.360
Check it out and Clippers Pod at
Clippers podcast on YouTube. We'll have

823
00:59:04.440 --> 00:59:07.519
a new one for you. What
tomorrow will Yeah, I think so Okay,

824
00:59:07.760 --> 00:59:10.079
let's do it. Thanks for doing
this tonight here on Clippers Stock,

825
00:59:10.119 --> 00:59:15.320
my friend. Absolutely after any win, you know I'm here, baby front

826
00:59:15.440 --> 00:59:21.960
running will just kidd Coming up next, you'll hear from Daniel Tis postgame.

827
00:59:21.960 --> 00:59:25.239
Clippers win by twenty five over the
Spurs and San Antonio. Let's not divide

828
00:59:25.239 --> 00:59:30.719
the fan base house divided. Can't
have it. Root for James Harden.

829
00:59:31.159 --> 00:59:37.519
If you didn't like them before and
you're still on the fence, I don't

830
00:59:37.559 --> 00:59:43.239
know what you've been watching the last
two games. You gotta think ahead,

831
00:59:43.719 --> 00:59:47.960
you gotta look long term, big
picture here, Clippers win once twenty four

832
00:59:47.960 --> 00:59:51.920
to ninety nine and sent Antonio more
clipperstock next year. On M five to

833
00:59:51.960 --> 00:59:58.840
seventy LS Sports, LA Clippers basketball
is on the two one three era continues.

834
00:59:59.159 --> 01:00:02.639
You're listening to the the LA Clippers
on the LA Clippers Audio network.

835
01:00:02.960 --> 01:00:08.239
You can either get on the James
vandwagon now with Harden with the Clippers,

836
01:00:10.280 --> 01:00:15.039
or you can be late to the
party. That's what's gonna be. Doesn't

837
01:00:15.079 --> 01:00:21.440
mean they're gonna win the championship,
but this is the right way to optimize

838
01:00:21.519 --> 01:00:28.360
lineups as Harden being the main guy
with the starters I'm Adam Osland after they

839
01:00:28.440 --> 01:00:32.119
win one twenty four to ninety nine
in San Antonio, Clippers over the Spurs.

840
01:00:32.199 --> 01:00:36.800
They make it too straight with their
new starting lineup with Terrence Man in

841
01:00:36.920 --> 01:00:39.400
for Russell Westbrook, and I thought
Russ played well in his twenty five minutes

842
01:00:39.440 --> 01:00:44.480
off the bench. Clippers pulled away
thanks to Paul George in the fourth quarter,

843
01:00:44.639 --> 01:00:51.599
going six of seven with fourteen points, but also Daniel Tice he finished

844
01:00:51.639 --> 01:00:57.079
with nineteen points an impressed Clipper nation. I think tonight he got jammed on

845
01:00:57.159 --> 01:01:02.280
a couple times on Friday Night tonight, and he got his payback with a

846
01:01:02.360 --> 01:01:07.000
couple of dunks himself. And in
fact, he had six of his nineteen

847
01:01:07.639 --> 01:01:13.159
in the fourth quarter. Here he
was postgame on Valley Sports, Daniel Tice

848
01:01:13.840 --> 01:01:17.000
with Patrick O'Neill. Thanks very much. Yeah here with Daniel Tye. I

849
01:01:17.039 --> 01:01:21.000
don't speak German very well, so
I'll do this in English. Great game,

850
01:01:21.480 --> 01:01:23.880
just your second game with the Clippers
nineteen and seven. Why were you

851
01:01:24.000 --> 01:01:30.199
so comfortable out here tonight? I'm
on still learning off all those guys in

852
01:01:30.280 --> 01:01:32.840
the pick and roll with James.
He found me early in the pockets when

853
01:01:32.840 --> 01:01:37.800
they trapped him. Well, It's
just like hunting the rhythm, especially for

854
01:01:37.920 --> 01:01:40.320
me too. Off the not playing
his many games, just getting in John

855
01:01:40.480 --> 01:01:44.760
run the system, defensive, the
offensive. You're just day by day.

856
01:01:45.320 --> 01:01:49.840
What's it like playing with these point
guards and James Harten and Russell Westbrook finding

857
01:01:49.920 --> 01:01:52.519
you and you're working so well off
of them as well. There's so much

858
01:01:52.559 --> 01:01:55.679
fun. I mean, playing with
for a future Hall of Famers on the

859
01:01:55.760 --> 01:02:00.199
same team. And then obviously when
he makes it next thing even more fun.

860
01:02:01.320 --> 01:02:04.559
Everybody who knows me, I don't
care about the shots and the points.

861
01:02:04.559 --> 01:02:07.400
I set screens and get those guys
open. Most of the time.

862
01:02:07.440 --> 01:02:10.599
They get so much attention that they
make the right play every time. So

863
01:02:10.840 --> 01:02:14.239
I think it's just like I said, it's gonna be fun, especially on

864
01:02:14.320 --> 01:02:16.400
the defensive end. The last two
games they scored I think Houston had one

865
01:02:16.440 --> 01:02:20.480
hundred today ninety nine. I think
that's what we can bid on. As

866
01:02:20.519 --> 01:02:23.599
far as you are concerned, you
join this team, the Clippers acquire you,

867
01:02:23.840 --> 01:02:28.679
they need your size, right,
how are you settling in? What's

868
01:02:28.719 --> 01:02:32.880
it like just personally joining this team. I do whatever the team meets me

869
01:02:34.000 --> 01:02:36.960
to do, like really, like
especially on the defense event, just being

870
01:02:37.000 --> 01:02:39.760
an anchor, playing on pick and
roll defense, rebounding, getting steps and

871
01:02:39.840 --> 01:02:44.159
run and like I said, on
offense, just set screens to get those

872
01:02:44.159 --> 01:02:46.079
guys open. Well, even hit
a three that's in your game too.

873
01:02:46.159 --> 01:02:50.960
One for one nice shot, Thank
you very much. Knock you shame Daniel

874
01:02:51.079 --> 01:02:54.639
Size post game after he finished with
nineteen points, seven boards, a couple

875
01:02:54.760 --> 01:02:59.599
of assists, just one turn over. Kind of the theme tonight, Clippers

876
01:02:59.679 --> 01:03:02.119
just with seven as a team.
But yeah, doing the little work.

877
01:03:02.880 --> 01:03:08.199
He's great at setting screens. And
there are certain guys. There are certain

878
01:03:08.239 --> 01:03:15.320
players that bring that energy and hard
hat and lunch pale to the game and

879
01:03:15.480 --> 01:03:22.840
they enjoy doing the dirty work.
Daniel Tice is one of them. Didn't

880
01:03:22.880 --> 01:03:27.159
care that he got posterized twice last
game. He's gonna continue to try to

881
01:03:27.239 --> 01:03:31.159
block shots at the rim and he's
gonna hang out there on offense. Got

882
01:03:31.280 --> 01:03:36.039
to tip in off a Kawhi.
Miss Russ found him a couple of times.

883
01:03:36.360 --> 01:03:40.840
Close proximity passes these type of guys, and I know he has something

884
01:03:40.880 --> 01:03:45.159
to prove after only playing i want
to say, eight games last couple of

885
01:03:45.239 --> 01:03:49.280
seasons with the Indiana Pacers and them
not playing him. So Chip on his

886
01:03:49.360 --> 01:03:52.880
shoulder to add in to a guy
who just plays a physical game. He's

887
01:03:52.920 --> 01:03:55.960
been like this forever. I really
liked him with the Boston Celtics. He

888
01:03:57.119 --> 01:04:01.239
was starting for them for a long
time, and that was a team that

889
01:04:01.360 --> 01:04:10.119
had playoff success, got to the
conference finals. Tice is nice Vanilla Tice.

890
01:04:11.079 --> 01:04:15.800
Nice game from him, nineteen his
clippers high. Before we get out

891
01:04:15.880 --> 01:04:25.159
of here tonight, I do want
to bring in our producer Katie Newton for

892
01:04:25.320 --> 01:04:31.119
a little Katie's Casual Corner segment,
something like that, I think so not

893
01:04:31.320 --> 01:04:33.920
something like that. That is it? I mean, sometimes it changes,

894
01:04:33.960 --> 01:04:38.039
sometimes it doesn't change. Nothing changes, right, It's all the same always

895
01:04:38.119 --> 01:04:43.280
forever. Time is a flat circle? Does time exist? Is this even

896
01:04:43.360 --> 01:04:45.159
real? Anyway? H you got
a question for me today about the h

897
01:04:45.440 --> 01:04:49.119
yes, and you wouldn't answer it
earlier when I thought of it. Okay,

898
01:04:49.159 --> 01:04:53.440
I'm sure you had to divulge that. No, I did. This

899
01:04:53.639 --> 01:04:56.239
is the game. I think.
Listen, guys, I think of the

900
01:04:56.360 --> 01:04:59.960
questions during the games, and sometimes
I ask Adam and sometimes he'll answer,

901
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:02.639
and sometimes he's like, no,
all right. So how come some newly

902
01:05:02.760 --> 01:05:10.519
signed players can start right away like
day of and others can't. Some players

903
01:05:10.559 --> 01:05:16.320
are better and more needed than others. Some are technically signed yet they haven't

904
01:05:16.360 --> 01:05:20.880
gone through their physical hardened. They
were what was the term they used,

905
01:05:21.000 --> 01:05:25.960
reconditioning because he hadn't played a game
yet this season, didn't have a preseason,

906
01:05:26.079 --> 01:05:30.599
so they want a runway, a
ramp up process because it's just difficult.

907
01:05:30.639 --> 01:05:33.920
There's no way to replicate in game
reps in an NBA game. But

908
01:05:34.239 --> 01:05:39.440
he just wasn't quite there yet even
at practice. It took some time,

909
01:05:39.880 --> 01:05:44.400
and you can see the timing and
rhythm. Last three games now has looked

910
01:05:44.519 --> 01:05:47.239
much better from him. He's looking
more and more like James Harden who had

911
01:05:47.280 --> 01:05:50.400
ten assistants Joe turnovers. It's a
good question, though, Katie, I

912
01:05:50.599 --> 01:05:55.360
like it. Maybe I should have
answered it earlier. I think he was

913
01:05:55.400 --> 01:06:00.639
googling me what HI anyway? Time
to go googling the answer? Like I

914
01:06:00.679 --> 01:06:06.360
didn't know that? Ask Jeeves all
right before we get out of here tonight.

915
01:06:08.719 --> 01:06:12.639
I do want to thank the Clippers
organization. No Eagle, Brian Seaman,

916
01:06:12.760 --> 01:06:15.599
Ralph Lawler, Carlo Jimenez on the
call, big brother, Jake Warner,

917
01:06:15.599 --> 01:06:19.400
a head engineer at the crypt Kay
you Newton a producer, the callers,

918
01:06:19.480 --> 01:06:27.000
the listeners, haters, trolls,
don't care. Get behind James Harden

919
01:06:27.079 --> 01:06:30.719
is the starter. Get on board. Now you look a lot smarter In

920
01:06:30.760 --> 01:06:35.039
the end, I'm Adam Amson.
Will talk to you at four on Wednesday.

921
01:06:35.119 --> 01:06:39.360
They're still in San Antonio and they're
still taking on Victor Women Yam and

922
01:06:39.400 --> 01:06:44.599
the Spurs talk to you then,
So why was doing his thing? All

923
01:06:44.639 --> 01:06:46.519
they want to do is win in
La. I win. I thought they

924
01:06:46.559 --> 01:06:50.000
gave everything they had. I'm very
proud of them. This has been Clippers

925
01:06:50.159 --> 01:06:56.199
Talk, the official postgame reaction of
the LA Clippers. God bless Paul George.
