00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:05.799
Parents man is pure on once again, He's Clippers Talk. I got calls

2
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:11.519
on Clippers Talk, immediate reaction and
analysis to today's game. That's what he's

3
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:17.399
capable of, hosted by your pre
and post game voice of the LA Clippers,

4
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:23.120
Adam Osler. So let me get
this straight. The team was the

5
00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:28.399
longest winning streak in the NBA just
lost the team with the longest losing streak

6
00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:34.159
by twenty four any given night in
the Association. As the Clippers fall one,

7
00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:38.719
sixteen to ninety three to the New
York Knicks, Welcome in to Clippers

8
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:42.960
Talk. I'm Adam Oslin live from
Crypto dot com Arena. Coming up,

9
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:46.200
we got postgame audio from the head
coach, and we'll get to your phone

10
00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:50.479
calls at eight sixty six ninety eight
seven two five seventy eight six sixty nine

11
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:55.520
eight seven two five seventy is the
phone number. Obviously a disappointing loss with

12
00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:58.119
the Clippers, who had won seven
of eight, who had won five in

13
00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:02.200
a row, the Knicks loser of
seven in a row. They had lost

14
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:07.480
seventeen of their last twenty games,
but now seventeen of their last twenty one

15
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:11.319
or they won eighteen their last twenty
one or they lost seventeen in the last

16
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.760
twenty one excuse me, And two
of those wins came against the Clippers.

17
00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:18.959
I think that one through for a
second. Yes, two of their wins

18
00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:23.319
when they've only had four in the
last twenty one games have come against the

19
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:29.640
Clippers. Sometimes styles make fights and
there's bad matchups, and this might be

20
00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:32.760
one of them for the Clippers.
But I thought a lot of self inflicted

21
00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:38.239
wounds effort wise in the first half, outside of a mere coffee and Terrence

22
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.799
Man. I thought Man was very
good, crashing the boards, trying to

23
00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:46.760
go coast to coast, had a
three pointer to start things off, was

24
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:51.239
looking for his own shot and had
seven of his eleven points in the first

25
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:56.879
quarter. But the Clippers didn't look
right from a physicality standpoint, and they

26
00:01:56.879 --> 00:02:00.159
were getting into foul trouble early.
It was almost like they were either too

27
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:08.360
aggressive or not aggressive enough tonight.
They couldn't find the Goldilocks sweet spot and

28
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:13.400
they were in foul trouble. And
it was the bigs in Hartenstein and Avizza

29
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:16.639
Zoobots who picked up a couple of
early fouls in this one, and I

30
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:22.400
think it made them a little bit
gun shy with not being as aggressive later

31
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.080
on, because the Clippers gave up
twenty one free throw attempts in the first

32
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:30.000
half, sixteen of those came in
the second quarter. And yeah, there

33
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.919
were some calls that I thought went
in favor of the New York Knicks,

34
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:38.039
including one that was eventually reversed towards
the ends of the first half as coach

35
00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:43.280
lu challenged it. There was another
one a little while later from Julius Randall,

36
00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:46.199
who looked to use his off arm
on Luke and Ard going to the

37
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:50.719
basket for an and one play.
But overall, the more physical team,

38
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.800
the more aggressive team, tends to
get more of those calls. Things evened

39
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:58.520
out a little bit more in the
second half. Or the Clippers, who

40
00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:02.479
only took five free throw in the
first half, attempted seventeen in the second

41
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:07.840
half. But after they were down
by twenty six, and that third quarter,

42
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:13.879
and they made that run where a
mere Coffee and Roco combined for thirteen

43
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:16.599
points in that third quarter, and
you could see signs of life. Terrence

44
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:21.599
Man was getting up and down the
court. They had it to within twelve

45
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:27.280
heading into the fourth, but then
they were just doa The first three and

46
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:32.360
a half minutes of that fourth quarter, Clippers went scoreless. Their first bucket

47
00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:39.199
was from Ojala after coach lew who
was desperately searching for some energy guys who

48
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:45.639
would attacked the basket, pretty much
cleared out all the starters, but it

49
00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:50.199
was obviously too late. At that
point they were down twenty two, twenty

50
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.560
four. Again, the Knicks were
up by as many as thirty two in

51
00:03:53.599 --> 00:04:00.240
the game, and the Clippers would
go on to lose by four to the

52
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:06.879
New York Knicks. And it was
multiple scoring droughts, and I think a

53
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:12.680
lot of it was self inflicted because
they just weren't moving the basketball to start

54
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:15.000
off the second quarter in a similar
fashion to what happened early in that fourth

55
00:04:15.079 --> 00:04:19.839
quarter. Even worse, the Clippers
went into a deep draft. I mean

56
00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:26.600
it was brutal five and a half
minutes. Over five and a half minutes,

57
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:30.319
they went scoreless to start that second
quarter. They would somehow still end

58
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:34.279
up with eighteen points in the period, but they were outscored thirty four to

59
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:39.959
eighteen and down nineteen at the half. So down nineteen at a half,

60
00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:44.319
down twenty six, and the third
quarter they make their push, but it

61
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:46.399
was not enough. And in an
off shooting night like this, where they

62
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:51.240
still give up one hundred and sixteen
points to the opposition, it's hard to

63
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:56.600
overcome shooting thirty seven percent from the
field. And really it wasn't even that

64
00:04:56.639 --> 00:05:02.279
good. They were at thirty four
percent entering the fourth quarter. They had

65
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:08.720
a twenty five point fourth quarter.
Some inconsequential time points were made. Still,

66
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:12.360
like seeing Isaiah Hartenstein hit that three
pointer at the very end of the

67
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:15.639
game. That's a shot he seems
to have in his bag, and he's

68
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:19.839
taken a few this year. He's
made a couple. But the Clippers offense

69
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:26.319
after really since February first, I
believe Noah Eagles said this earlier, they've

70
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:29.720
been shooting forty one percent from three. That's where they were last season.

71
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:33.759
That's when they're at their best,
when they're moving the basketball and it's drive,

72
00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:40.600
kick, swing, make the extra
pass, create for others. Because

73
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:44.879
when you're down talent like this,
when you're down your best ISO players in

74
00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:49.079
Kauai and Paul George and Norman Powell, you have to create open shots through

75
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:53.720
ball movement, and I don't think
the Clippers had a lot of it tonight.

76
00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:58.720
They finished with seventeen assists. It's
not an awful number. The Knicks

77
00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:03.439
had just nineteen, but eyeball tests
would say some of those assists came late

78
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:10.160
during garbage time, and the Clippers, especially when they needed to early in

79
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:14.680
that fourth quarter when they went scoreless
first three and a half minutes of the

80
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:19.040
fourth, they attempted four three pointers
to just one two point shot. They

81
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:24.600
started settling when they were having a
cold night from the outside and taking tough,

82
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:29.079
long three pointers. It looked like
a team on a twelve thirty start

83
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:31.000
on a back to back instead of
a team that had two days off.

84
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:36.000
That's where the disappointment comes in.
You're taking on a team that just lost

85
00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:43.879
seventh straight seventeen of twenty and you
had two days of rest after a huge

86
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:48.759
victory over the Lakers on Thursday,
and the Clippers were sleepwalking at times,

87
00:06:49.800 --> 00:06:56.000
and the Knicks were a step quicker
to loose balls fifty fifty balls. It's

88
00:06:56.040 --> 00:06:59.839
not often the Clippers are out worked, but I thought it happened tonight,

89
00:06:59.879 --> 00:07:02.879
and you had to expect some of
this from the New York Knicks. Desperate

90
00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:06.360
team, just like the Lakers were, just like the Warriors are going to

91
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:13.600
be likely Tuesday night if they lose
tomorrow night in Denver without Steph Curry and

92
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:17.720
some of their best players who were
staying in San Francisco, and what's a

93
00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:21.720
makeup game in Denver from earlier in
the season. But that's a team that's

94
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:27.759
been struggling. They've lost i want
to say, eight of their last ten

95
00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:30.800
games, and they're gonna give the
Clippers their best shot. And with just

96
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:35.319
sixteen games left in the season.
For the Clippers, when you have a

97
00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:38.959
game like this tonight, you have
to get up for it no matter what,

98
00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:42.399
no matter who the opponent is.
Maybe let down after the big win

99
00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:46.000
over the Lakers, but it just
can't happen this late into the season.

100
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.639
Not a great performance. We haven't
seen many of these this year from the

101
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:56.360
Clippers, even with them being undermanned, but tonight was tough. Being down

102
00:07:56.399 --> 00:08:01.160
thirty two in that fourth quarter and
just ever making it close enough to have

103
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:05.160
a real opportunity to come back when
we thought, Okay, they're down nineteen

104
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:07.839
at the half. Is what the
Clippers do? Come back clips, hashtag

105
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:11.279
come back Clippers. Nah, the
Knicks were good enough. They hit some

106
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:16.079
big three, some timely ones,
even forty eight hit one in the near

107
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.480
side corner in the second half.
That was big to kind of keep the

108
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:24.199
Clippers at bay and tip your cap
to the Knicks. I thought they played

109
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:28.639
well, but it's just not often
you see the Clippers get out worked and

110
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:33.759
not be the more physical team out
there. And there were some uncharacteristic performances

111
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.879
from guys. Reggie Jackson, who
had been so good the last four games,

112
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.360
averaging twenty two a game, obviously
had thirty six against the Lakers,

113
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:46.879
his Clippers high four shy of his
career high four of eighteen, zero of

114
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:52.120
eight from three. He had some
good looks out there. Clippers as a

115
00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:54.720
team just win eleven of thirty four
from the outside. That's thirty two percent

116
00:08:54.759 --> 00:09:03.000
after shooting forty one percent from three
over pretty much last month. Marcus Morris

117
00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:07.519
two of nine, Nick Batoum two
of ten. Nobody really had it going,

118
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:09.240
but the one guy who did in
that second quarter, Luke Nard.

119
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:16.440
He stopped shooting, he started hesitating. He had nine points in the second

120
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:22.440
quarter, he finished with ten and
had a bad turnover in a situation where

121
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.320
he should have pulled up and taken
the shot. We'll hear from coach Lou

122
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:30.240
we'll get to your phone calls eight

124
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:39.799
a slight step back tonight after they
had won seven of eight five in a

125
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:43.279
row. That was the longest winning
streak in the NBA heading into this one.

126
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:52.120
They had a regroup quickly in Golden
State Tuesday night while postgame audio.

127
00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:54.879
Next, we'll get to your phone

130
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:05.360
I'm at a moslind and you're listening
to a M five seventy l streets

131
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:16.080
love. We was going hard.
Now we can back to more LA Clippers

132
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:22.720
Basketball Act Defense the offense for the
Clippers on the official home of your Los

133
00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:26.639
Angeles Clippers. Many people here right
now that I didn't know last year.

134
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:33.639
The y'all I swear feels like the
last few nights we've been neverwear bag,

135
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:39.360
but I just can't remember it.
I didn't love me at my twenty four

136
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:45.399
point victory over the Lakers. Don't
still come back to me after he losing.

137
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:52.080
Okay, I don't bad analogy.
Clippers lose tonight one sixteen to ninety

138
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:58.159
three over the Knicks. After their
big victory, their season sweep of the

139
00:10:58.279 --> 00:11:01.679
Lakers Thursday night, welcome back in
the Clippers stock. I've had a Moslin

eight six six nine eight seven two
five seventy eight six six nine eight seven

141
00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:11.879
two five seventy is the phone number. Clippers lose one sixteen to ninety three.

142
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:15.320
They had one seven of eight,
they had one five straight. I

143
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:18.080
was the longest winning streak in the
NBA and they were taking on the team

144
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:22.960
with the longest losing streak in the
New York Knicks. You couldn't say that

145
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:26.360
after the way they played tonight.
There's still just twenty six and thirty eight

146
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:30.639
on the season with an outside shot
of getting into the play in tournament.

147
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:33.200
That's where the Clippers currently are,
in the A spot in the West,

148
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:39.399
behind the Minnesota Timberwolves, who have
won twelve or their last sixteen games.

149
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:45.960
That Pat bev culture center that he
is, He's never missed the playoff playoffs

150
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.639
in his career. While we have
a moment, though, Let's pause ten

151
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:52.039
seconds for station identification. Here on
AM five seventy l A Sports, this

152
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:58.559
is LA Clippers Basketball A five seventy
KLAC Los Angeles, ninety eight seven KYSR

153
00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:03.399
HD to Los Angeles and iHeart radio
station. If you didn't love me at

154
00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:07.360
my one sixteen ninety three loss,
you don't get to hold me. Okay,

155
00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:11.799
whatever, Let's go to Morris and
Long Beach Morris R. Clippers stop

156
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:15.879
without a mousles. Hey, what's
going on? Double A Check this out,

157
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:18.879
everybody. The Clippers gonna win it
this year. Write that down.

158
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:20.919
I know I'm a fan, and
you know what they say about a fan,

159
00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:22.960
Kane, trust what we say.
The word fan comes to the word

160
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:26.240
for that because I don't care.
But they're gonna win it this year.

161
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:30.039
I'm gonna tell you why. Paul, George and Kawhi are ahead of schedule.

162
00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:33.159
They both ahead of schedule. Got
Kawhi is playing two on two right

163
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:37.440
now, and George looked at the
smoothest ice and practice. I saw him

164
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:41.440
on a video of shooting around with
Knard and Canard show looked good in that

165
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:43.840
three point contest. But anyway back
to this right here, they're gonna come

166
00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:48.720
back before us all over. Okay, they're not advertising, they're not broadcasting

167
00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:50.399
it. And they're very fortunate to
get him back because there's two seasons.

168
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.919
Everybody is two seasons, and they
get ready for the second season. Now,

169
00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:56.840
they got the eight spots sewed up
right on, so it be nice

170
00:12:56.879 --> 00:12:58.679
if we were the first place.
They never lost the game. But let's

171
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:01.840
keep it. When those guys come
back, Everybody tell you on TV who's

172
00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:05.840
gonna win it? Because with the
moves that the Clippers made this season,

173
00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:09.000
when they get those two guys back, the only question will be conditioning the

174
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:11.519
rhythm. If they get them two
things, God, it's over, Adam,

175
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:15.480
They're gonna win it, all right, call me crazy, most fans

176
00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:18.679
are. I'll talk to you later, all right, Morrison, the long

177
00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:22.399
beach from your lips to the basketball
God's ears. But we just don't know

178
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:26.360
at this point if either of them
and Norman Powell are going to be able

179
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:30.960
to make it back in time for
this season. We're hopeful. We all

180
00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:35.120
saw the video of Paul George.
We heard pregame from coach Lew talk about

181
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:39.480
him at practice being able to shoot
with his right hand. Now he looks

182
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:46.200
silky smooth with it, but you
can't replicate in game reps. There's just

183
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:50.080
no way to do it. But
hopefully he's on the end, he's turned

184
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:54.120
a corner. It was still a
site for sore eyes for Clipper nations just

185
00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:58.600
to see him out there practicing like
that. And Clippers, though they fault

186
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:03.080
tonight, apparently it wasn't as inspiring
as we had hoped. They lose one,

187
00:14:03.240 --> 00:14:09.960
sixteen to ninety three to the New
York Knicks, who absolutely outplayed them

188
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:15.559
for the most part in this one. But when you go nine minutes scoreless,

189
00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:18.879
when you combine them going five and
a half minute scoreless to start the

190
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:22.879
second quarter, ree and a half
minute scoreless to start the fourth quarter,

191
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:28.480
you gotta have a hard time.
It's gonna be tough to win that ballgame.

192
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.840
And the Clippers just weren't aggressive enough. They didn't get rewarded at the

193
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.039
free throw line in the first half. Because of it, they only had

194
00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:41.799
thirty six points in the paint Nicks
had fifty. And what was the key

195
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:46.720
to victory tonight, Well, it
was about rebounding. And the Clippers got

196
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:52.919
outboarded fifty seven to forty three,
and once again gave up fifteen offensive rebounds

197
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:56.600
of the New York Knicks, just
like they did back in New York in

198
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:01.360
January. Some of that was because
they had to go small with I say

199
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:03.840
a heart and sign and it beats
the zoobots out of it, because they

200
00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:09.519
got called for at times, I
thought some tiki tack fouls. But look,

201
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:13.799
either they were too aggressive or not
aggressive enough. Tonight it was one

202
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:18.639
or the other. They just couldn't
find that middle ground, that happy medium,

203
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:22.399
and they paid for it with a
hungry Knicks team that I mean,

204
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:26.279
coach Tibbs is calling for a review. Was seven minutes left in the ball

205
00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:31.320
game and they're up by twenty six
points. I felt like they just want

206
00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:35.360
to relish or cam reddish, or
they just want to enjoy and soak up

207
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:39.279
this big lead that they have had
because they've blown many of them this season.

208
00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:43.960
I want to say it was three
times that Noah Eagles said the Knicks

209
00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:50.399
have given up leads of twenty points
three different times this season. So for

210
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:54.159
them to hold on against a team
and you're Los Angeles Clippers that are known

211
00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:58.039
for coming back, also, I'm
sure that's a feather in their cap.

212
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:02.240
And they were just looking for a
victory, and they got it in a

213
00:16:02.279 --> 00:16:04.240
big way tonight over the Clippers,
who maybe were just due for an off

214
00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:11.600
night in a bad game. It
happens disappointing, discouraging, yes, but

215
00:16:11.639 --> 00:16:15.240
they've still have won seven of their
last nine games, and they have been

216
00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:21.360
playing some of their best ball,
especially when you consider who's out right now

217
00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:23.879
in this lineup, this starting lineup, I want to say they are now

218
00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:30.200
eight and two. They've had a
little bit more continuity with their starting lineups.

219
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:34.600
They've had just enough guys remain healthy
to have some chemistry out there.

220
00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:38.519
Obviously, they weren't good enough though
tonight. They didn't bring it from the

221
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:44.240
opening tip. They didn't execute well
enough, and by the time they did

222
00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:47.879
start to lock in energy wise in
that third quarter, when you have to

223
00:16:47.919 --> 00:16:51.440
expend that much energy to get back
into a ball game, you often run

224
00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:53.159
out of gas. And maybe that's
what happened early in the fourth when they

225
00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:56.480
went scoreless for three and a half
minutes. We'll take a quick time out,

226
00:16:56.519 --> 00:17:00.320
we'll come back. We'll get back
to your phone calls eight six nine

228
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:10.880
just hold on for you. We
also have postgame audio from coach Lewis.

229
00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:17.720
The Clippers lose by twenty four to
the Knicks, hearing downtown Los Angeles.

230
00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:19.440
But I mean, as Marilyn Monroe
once said, you don't love me

231
00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:26.000
at my worst and you don't deserve
me at my best. I didn't even

232
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:30.000
have to look it up. Come
on, yes I did. Did you

233
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:33.160

you're on Clipper stock. What's up?

Maximilian Mighty Max? Oh not so
mighty. He hung up, got scared,

243

Tagus and Walnut. I know you're
gonna be there for me. You

244
00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:49.599
always are. Hey, Adam,
I'm driving home from the game. It's

245
00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:53.599
a part cry from Thursday night.
I'll tell you being at the game Thursday

246
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:57.519
night and today it was just like
it was a complete one eighty. But

247
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:02.839
that second quarter, how long did
it take us to get a basket?

248
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:07.640
Almost six minutes? Not just a
basket or free throw anything a point.

249
00:19:11.759 --> 00:19:15.759
Yeah it was painful, but yeah, I'm not gonna overreact. We were

250
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:19.119
doing for a bad game. Uh. Two questions for you. One,

251
00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:26.960
what's all our guys back? Norman
Powell, PG, Kawai. That would

252
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:33.319
mean that I guess Kawai would be
coming in for Batoum and PG would be

253
00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:37.960
for a team. Man. Is
that right? Yes, I would say

254
00:19:38.000 --> 00:19:41.960
that's accurate. Nick Batum would be
back to coming off the bench. I

255
00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:47.279
believe Marcus Morris would still be starting
in that scenario, and Pale it off

256
00:19:47.319 --> 00:19:51.000
the bench. Okay, Yeah,
that's pretty exciting to think about. And

257
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:56.359
I don't know if Pal's coming off
the bench, I don't know if that's

258
00:19:56.400 --> 00:20:03.480
the case. They may they may
stagger his minutes interestingly enough, But who

259
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:07.039
would he be coming in for,
said Reggie. I would have convisioned be

260
00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:11.680
starting right he has been. I
look, we'll see. We'll cross that

261
00:20:11.720 --> 00:20:15.279
bridge when we get there, hopefully
sooner than later. That's a good problem

262
00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:22.720
to have. What's your second question? I think with I know in the

263
00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:27.680
playoffs last year we played small with
the twomb at a five. Do you

264
00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:33.480
think if zoo Back gets in Pali
trouble and since we created a box that,

265
00:20:33.559 --> 00:20:38.160
do you think we're a little small
If let's say zoo Back gets in

266
00:20:38.200 --> 00:20:41.759
pal trouble in the first five minutes
and then Harnst has to come in,

267
00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:45.559
we're a little small in the center
five. I know we can manage it,

268
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:49.319
but do you think what do you
think about that? As far as

269
00:20:49.559 --> 00:20:55.640
you know, having not having a
big center after a zoo Back I appreciate

270
00:20:55.680 --> 00:21:00.319
the phone call Tageous. I think
Robert Covington is a godsend for this team

271
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:06.640
because he has shown a propensity to
be able to guard BIG's true fives.

272
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:11.799
He is not afraid and Isaiah Hartenstein
obviously he's physical out there. He does

273
00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:17.279
get into foul trouble, though luckily
coach lew Is as a depth at anyone

274
00:21:17.480 --> 00:21:22.599
with going small and finding mismatches.
So I'm not overly concerned with it.

275
00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:30.359
But you know, losing a back, I should say who I think is

276
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:36.720
gonna do good things in Milwaukee?
It's a loss, But remember Isaiah Hardenstein

277
00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:40.759
was already taking up those minutes,
and he had earned more minutes with this

278
00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:45.480
team. And I think with Rocco
with the tomb, with Marcus Morris who

279
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:48.440
can also play the five at time, at times, they have enough guys

280
00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:53.599
a mere coffee dare I say it
can do it at times too. They

281
00:21:53.640 --> 00:22:00.599
have the most versatility switchability out there
that really maybe I've ever seen. If

282
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:04.480
they can get fully healthy, it
will be a site to behold. The

283
00:22:04.599 --> 00:22:11.519
versatility with this Clippers team. They've
had some of that obviously with the Golden

284
00:22:11.599 --> 00:22:15.079
State Warriors, but they have so
many guys that can play multiple positions,

285
00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:21.240
that are multi tool, multi purpose
like players. As coach Lou would say,

286
00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:23.720
speaking of we'll take a quick time
out, we'll come back, we'll

287
00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:27.440
hear from coach Lou eight six six

If you'd like to get on Also I'm

289
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:40.119
at follow out of man on Twitter. Clippers lose by twenty four to the

290
00:22:40.160 --> 00:22:45.880

up in San Francisco. It's Golden State

291
00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:51.039
Warriors. Don't get much easier.
So back to back against the Washington Wizards.

292
00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:56.000
Right back here at the Crypt on
Wednesday. More Clippers stock next year

phone Clipper Nation completely, I'm commiserating with

298
00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:44.240
you on this one, but they
got a chance to bounce back, and

299
00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:48.519
I'm just guessing Coach Low is not
gonna dwell on this for too long before

300
00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:52.920
we get to him, though,
Tom and Huntington beach, Tom, you're

301
00:23:52.920 --> 00:23:56.720
our Clippers. Stop with autamasin what's
up, Adam? How's it going?

302
00:23:56.839 --> 00:24:00.920
Man? I'm twenty one today,
so I just coming back from the game

303
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:03.559
right now. Oh congratulations, this
is a good night to turn twenty one

304
00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:08.359
as a Clipper fan, I'd say, I'll behave behave yourself, Tom behave

305
00:24:08.400 --> 00:24:15.359
yourself tonight has to call him night. But you know, I think the

306
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:19.559
game today, it wasn't our best
game. I think that we seemed shy

307
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:23.880
Terence. There was a lot of
wide open shots for Terrence and he just

308
00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:29.920
he wasn't shooting him. Same with
Reggie, he just wasn't making anything.

309
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:33.440
And Luke was very shy with the
ball, and I think that was our

310
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:37.480
biggest thing. I think we needed
to be more aggressive tonight, and it

311
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:41.640
sucks that we weren't. But I
thought our garbage time minutes, guys,

312
00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:45.359
they were a bit more aggressive.
It's not saying much, but we should

313
00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:48.039
have played Brandon Boston. He would
have given us some offense, and I

314
00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:52.920
didn't decide to make that adjustment.
I'm gonna trust him, but I think

315
00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:55.160
that that was it. I think
we didn't have the heart tonight. We

316
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:59.680
looked tired and looked like we didn't
care. Otherwise, it was a great

317
00:24:59.799 --> 00:25:03.799
night twenty one to be a Clippers
fan. We'll have your birthday, so

318
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:10.279
I appreciate the phone call tonight.
I think there's something too that some guys

319
00:25:10.319 --> 00:25:14.160
weren't being aggressive enough. I felt
like Nick Batoum was taking it upon himself,

320
00:25:14.279 --> 00:25:15.079
like, Hey, if you guys
aren't gonna shoot, I'm gonna go

321
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:18.000
out there and put him up.
And he had some good looks that didn't

322
00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:22.000
fall. Just one of five from
the outside. Clippers is a team again,

323
00:25:22.119 --> 00:25:26.799
eleven of thirty four, thirty two
percent from three when they had been

324
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:32.400
shooting so well from beyond the yark, getting back to where they were last

325
00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:36.480
season. All right, let's hear
from the head coach toront I've been putting

326
00:25:36.480 --> 00:25:37.640
it off for too long. I
want to hear from him post game after

327
00:25:37.720 --> 00:25:41.079
the Clippers lose one, sixteen to
ninety three to the Knicks here in downtown

328
00:25:41.160 --> 00:25:45.119
Los Angeles. First of all,
long, we don't have any concerns,

329
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:48.559
So don't stop with that question.
Okay, next question sounds it sounds good,

330
00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:53.160
my Luke. Question I wanted to
ask, is you saw how the

331
00:25:53.400 --> 00:26:00.279
second and fourth quarter started going off
twelve one and or at sixteen oh and

332
00:26:00.440 --> 00:26:03.039
uh twelve one runs just once,
you know, like if you saw any

333
00:26:03.839 --> 00:26:10.759
common thread and those two runs.
No, I thought just our physicality was,

334
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:11.839
you know, to start the game
early you know, it was a

335
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:15.039
lot we didn't master the physicality on
both sides of the floor. I thought

336
00:26:15.039 --> 00:26:19.000
they was into us defensively and then
offensively. They were more physical than we

337
00:26:19.039 --> 00:26:22.079
were. And we just didn't have
a lot. You know, we didn't

338
00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:25.599
have a lot tonight, didn't have
a lot of pop and they played well.

339
00:26:25.759 --> 00:26:29.200
We played We played bad. So
with that combination, you're gonna get

340
00:26:29.200 --> 00:26:32.240
a thirty point blowout. And so
you know, they were just starving for

341
00:26:32.319 --> 00:26:33.759
a win. You know, they've
been playing well, getting up and having

342
00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:37.440
leads and not being able to close. So we knew it's gonna be a

343
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:40.559
tough game, and we didn't play
our best game and they played really good.

344
00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:44.640
I take it that you get a
lost like this. A mirror said,

345
00:26:44.640 --> 00:26:48.920
this will leave a bad taste in
the team's mouth, and I guess

346
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:52.319
that helps you in a way.
Uh transferring that energy to Golden State Tuesday.

347
00:26:52.599 --> 00:26:55.559
Oh yeah, you just gotta turn
the page. Like I said,

348
00:26:55.559 --> 00:26:56.599
it was a bad game for us. You know, we didn't play well

349
00:26:57.079 --> 00:27:00.359
and they play well, you know, so hats off to those guys,

350
00:27:00.400 --> 00:27:03.640
and we gotta move on and look
forward to Golden Stay. But we did

351
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:07.880
They definitely gotta play better than we
did tonight. Say a mirror said that

352
00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:11.319
he felt like the energy wasn't there
in the beginning. You kind of said,

353
00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:14.480
how do you like, how do
you assess like whether or not it

354
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:17.799
is an energy issue or it's a
structural issue and the system, like you

355
00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:19.319
know, the since of them time
just just a our test. I mean,

356
00:27:19.400 --> 00:27:22.799
you never really know. But we
did look slow earlier on to start

357
00:27:22.880 --> 00:27:26.440
their game. They look faster and
like I said, they were more physical

358
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:30.880
to start, and you know,
so all like I said, they played

359
00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:33.559
well. I probably could have did
some things earlier, but I thought we

360
00:27:33.599 --> 00:27:36.440
would be able to play better and
get back into it, you know,

361
00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:37.920
which we did, you know,
late in that third quarter. But that

362
00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:41.519
first half we just didn't. We
didn't play very well. And like I

363
00:27:41.559 --> 00:27:45.000
said, they attacked us, you
know, in transition, they got to

364
00:27:45.079 --> 00:27:48.839
the paint every single time. Our
small lineup wasn't as good as we you

365
00:27:48.920 --> 00:27:52.960
know, thought it would be.
Just kind of got staggered with that unit,

366
00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:53.920
you know, So that's on me. So we gotta get better with

367
00:27:55.039 --> 00:27:57.119
that, and we just didn't play
well. You got a line up out

368
00:27:57.119 --> 00:28:00.799
there at one time, Uh,
it was Roco, Reggie Nico, Marcus

369
00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:03.720
and Zoo. So it's like a
bigger lineup. Is that a lineup you

370
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:07.880
can see yourself running several times.
I'll just try anything. When you when

371
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:11.680
you played the way we played tonight, you know, you you just try

372
00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:14.680
anything to try to you know,
make something work, to make something stick.

373
00:28:14.799 --> 00:28:17.200
And you know, like I said, you know I got I've been

374
00:28:17.279 --> 00:28:18.480
playing. Well, this is just
one game. You know, we didn't

375
00:28:18.519 --> 00:28:22.519
play. We didn't play too good, and we understand that, you know,

376
00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:25.079
so you know, we definitely gotta
be better at especially in front of

377
00:28:25.079 --> 00:28:26.480
our home fans. But as one
of those games, we just didn't have

378
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:29.759
it. And so you know,
you're gonna have some of those games.

379
00:28:30.119 --> 00:28:32.440
And he's got to scrap this and
get ready to go for Golden State.

380
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:37.119
There was Coach Loup post game after
the Clippers lose by twenty four to the

381
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:41.759
New York Knicks, saying they didn't
bring the physicality, they didn't have a

382
00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:45.480
lot of pop early on. They
played really bad and Knicks played really good.

383
00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:49.599
You can pretty much simplify it like
that with a loss to this level

384
00:28:49.960 --> 00:28:55.119
that the Clippers had to go through
tonight against the Knicks. But this is

385
00:28:55.160 --> 00:28:57.440
a team that has bounced back,
that has faced so much adversity. He's

386
00:28:57.480 --> 00:29:03.200
not even just this season, back
years with guys being out and they find

387
00:29:03.319 --> 00:29:08.319
ways to pick themselves back up off
the mat after losses like this. Clippers

388
00:29:08.559 --> 00:29:15.400
in San Francisco coming in hot.

389
