00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:06.120
Time for a postgame. Look,
it's your LA Clippers. This is Clippers

2
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:09.839
Locker Road, brought to you by
Cedars Sinai, the official health partner of

3
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:14.919
the LA Clippers, and by Patschonga, official travel casino of the LA Clippers.

4
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:19.160
Breaking down today's action with the pre
and post game voice. If you're

5
00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:24.039
La Clippers, They're locking in every
game, every night. Adam Oslan,

6
00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:31.440
the comeback Clips are officially back.
They were down seventy to forty eight and

7
00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:38.520
they overcome a twenty two point Golden
State Warriors lead. They come back to

8
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:43.320
win one thirteen to one twelve on
a three pointer from Paul George Late.

9
00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:49.240
What a victory, Clipper Nation.
Welcome into your postgame show. I'm ad

10
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:52.840
a Moslin coming up. We will
have Clippers Talk eight six six nine eight

11
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:57.079
seven two five seventy eight sixty six
nine eight seven two five seventy. But

12
00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:00.759
first back to Crypto with Carlo Jmenez. Carlo, what a call with that

13
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:07.400
three point dagger from PG thirteen late
the eventual game winner, and what a

14
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:11.799
comeback by this Clippers team. I'm
reminded of a twenty two point comeback.

15
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:15.120
I believe it was against the Atlanta
Hawks, where Nicholas Patooma a couple of

16
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:19.840
seasons ago said something was born out
of this. Let's hope the same happens

17
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:23.280
with this Clippers come back. Are
you kidding me? Adam Ostlin, Are

18
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:26.959
you kidding me? What a game
by this Clippers team. They're resolved down

19
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:32.840
by twenty two in the third quarter, and to come all the way back

20
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:38.200
and to do it with the big
three Kawhi PG, James Harden, they

21
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:42.239
combined for sixty six points. I
mean, it was just a twitch was

22
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:48.120
flipped to start the ballgame in the
second half. Whatever Tylu said in the

23
00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:52.159
locker room, those guys took the
heart and heart is what they showed throughout

24
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:55.760
that second half. They were never
out. Padjemski hit it late, couple

25
00:01:55.799 --> 00:02:00.319
buckets, They kept Curry quiet.
Steph was seven for eighteen for night,

26
00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:02.159
and I think he only scored five
or six points in that second half.

27
00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:06.640
At him. That was fun.
And if that team can play like that

28
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:08.360
the rest of the way, good
luck to the rest of the NBA.

29
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:13.680
And it took everybody Kawhi, Leonard
late, Paul George of course, but

30
00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:17.759
James Harden was huge late in the
ballgame. Danielle Tice and the way he

31
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:23.960
played and coach Lou going small so
they could have that switchability late defensively,

32
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:29.599
it worked, it did. Out
of Ozland, Clippers seemed to find something

33
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:34.719
with the rotations. Kylu was an
excellent and making adjustments. The Warriors were

34
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.080
beating up the Clippers throughout that first
half, and the Cairo practor who's had

35
00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:43.479
his chest matches against Steve Kerr boy, he won this one in the second

36
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:49.240
half. Clippers next game is coming
up not till Wednesday against the Denver Nuggets,

37
00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:52.080
and I say, we hope something
was born out of this comeback,

38
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:54.960
because you don't know till they played
for another couple of weeks here. But

39
00:02:55.159 --> 00:03:00.800
this was a classic Clippers victory in
the two to one three air where,

40
00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:05.719
yes, on an afternoon matinee madness
type of game, they get down early,

41
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:07.520
but they continued to fight. And
I like that word you use,

42
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:12.360
resolve. They showed it in this
one. Carlo. Yeah, it was

43
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:14.680
a game where it was a gut
check. Let's be honest. I mean,

44
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:16.759
you're playing the same team last time
you played him. It was a

45
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:21.000
back to back, so you had
a little bit of tired legs you're coming

46
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:23.680
into this one on a matinee.
I mean, there's all the excuses in

47
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:27.960
the world, but this Clipper team
fought back. They showed the heart and

48
00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:30.840
the hustle, the defensive focus.
They didn't allow a lot of easy points

49
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:34.800
for Golden State, and at the
end of the day, they earned themselves

50
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.960
a victory. And Draymond Green comes
back down to earth after hitting four fourth

51
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:43.159
quarter threes. He was wide open
in the left corner and he hit the

52
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:46.479
front of the rim and the Clippers
survived. They led at him for eight

53
00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:50.400
point nine seconds tonight and they come
away with a win. Did Curtis Jackson

54
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:53.400
have that for you? Because I
like him pulling double duty in this one.

55
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:55.360
He may be the good luck charm. Come on, Curtis. Curtis

56
00:03:55.400 --> 00:04:00.560
doing all the work today. Check
out the pod rap Nerds. Also big

57
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:04.719
brother Jake Warna shout out all the
podcasts after this one. Podcast pe with

58
00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:10.680
the game winner late for the Clippers. They win one thirteen to one twelve

59
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:15.360
over the Golden State Warriors when they
were down by twenty two. Carlo,

60
00:04:15.520 --> 00:04:18.000
I say it and I always mean
it, but especially on a game like

61
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:25.439
this, my friend, what a
call on the Paul George step back three.

62
00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:29.399
We're gonna be playing that all week. Appreciate Adam, thank you,

63
00:04:29.639 --> 00:04:32.079
and I can't wait to see you
here Wednesday. Let's keep it going.

64
00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:36.480
It doesn't get much easier defending NBA
champsonown. The Clippers pulled it off.

65
00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:43.959
Can this be the turning point of
the season. Down twenty two to Golden

66
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:48.680
State, they win one thirteen to
one to twelve and PG thirteen coming through

67
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:53.720
late. You're listening to your postgame
locker room show. I'm out of moslind

68
00:04:53.759 --> 00:05:00.600
and this is the LA Clippers Audio
Network. Floading Clippers, fully loaded Clippers

69
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.639
fans. This is LA Clippers basketball. You're listening to the LA Clippers on

70
00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:12.319
the LA Clippers Audio Network. The
Clippers were down twenty two. They come

71
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:15.920
back to win one thirteen to one
twelve at home over the Golden State Warriors.

72
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:20.079
Welcome into your postgame locker room show. I'm in a Mosland Whoo.

73
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:28.920
What a ball game? Paul George
sticks the step back three over Clay Thompson

74
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:32.279
to win it. Let's get to
your second half highlights. In the third

75
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:39.160
quarter, it was James Harden who
really started things off in the third just

76
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:43.480
doing damage, knocking down threes,
getting to the free throw line to take

77
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:46.519
three free throws, and was also
getting to the basket. Do we got

78
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:49.160
some James Harden highlights? I want
them from you, Katie, because he

79
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:54.560
deserves some respect after this second half
comeback the beer shovels. Clendard at the

00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:06.199

off the window at home. Leonard at

83
00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:10.000
the top, but Gemskey almost took
it away. Leonard takes it right back.

84
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:14.279
Harden open left wing, three bottoms, James Harden takes three back.

85
00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:16.160
Here come the Clippers. Harden in
the front cord. He waves his right

86
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:18.120
arm, says, come on,
guys, we're going for a run.

87
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:23.319
Harden down the lane, left handed, layup up and in fifteen in the

88
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:28.800
frame for James. He's an archer. James Harden with those fifteen points in

89
00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:31.680
the third quarter, and that twenty
two point lead was down to just a

90
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:36.800
seven point lead entering the fourth,
but the Clippers would get down by ten.

91
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:41.560
But that's when the two to one
three connection. That's when your superstars

92
00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:45.560
have to take over. And it
started with Kawhi Leonard. Leonard bounds past

93
00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:48.000
Harden on the far wing one on
one with a rookie p Jemesky lob Leonard

94
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:53.079
left fended layer. What a pass
from Harden. He's got eight assists,

95
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:56.720
Harden, it's left wing. It's
fine's Leonard far wing pump fikes and three.

96
00:06:56.759 --> 00:07:00.399
He takes the baseline, pulls up
anton x one point four. Leonard

97
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.279
gribbles with the right hand. Hawaii
just hit a big bucket. Here's the

98
00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:06.439
corner round a pal stree down the
right alley with they just shoot stop stops

99
00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:12.399
cutext Gohi again, back to back
buckets to George and the paint shovels.

100
00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:16.399
Leonard right block layup goes thirty five
seconds left, Clippers with a beauty.

101
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:24.120
Clippers still down late. What a
play call though by coach Lou there to

102
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:30.600
get Kawhi that easy layup to bring
it to within one. The Clippers then

103
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:33.360
would get a stop on the other
end as they held the Golden State Warriors

104
00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:39.879
to just twenty points in that fourth
quarter, and then it was Paul George

105
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:43.759
no time out after the stop.
Coach lou let him play and this is

106
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:47.920
the shot. They got Clippers down
by two. George with ten borrowings step

107
00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:55.240
back, three dime on Flippers lad
for the first time today with nine seconds

108
00:07:55.319 --> 00:07:59.680
left, one thirteen, one,
twelve, time out, Steve Perr,

109
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:05.519
are you kidding me? Down to
Paul? George drops eleven points in the

110
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:11.800
fourth quarter, but none bigger than
that shop shot on Klay Thompson with nine

111
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:15.240
point two seconds left, As Carlo
Jimenez said, the Clippers needed one more

112
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:18.319
stop and the guy who hit the
first bucket of the ball game, Draymond,

113
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:20.720
who has been shooting forty six percent
from the outside on the season,

114
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:26.959
misses a three pointer. The Clippers
complete the twenty two point comeback at home

115
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:31.519
against the Golden State Warriors. They
go on to win one thirteen to one.

116
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:37.120

We're gonna find out Wednesday when they
got another shot against the Denver Nuggets.

fully loaded, but a few days

00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.679
from Paul George one thirteen to one
to twelve at home over the Golden State

153
00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:45.879
Warriors. Welcome into Clippers Talk.
I'm Ada Moslin eight six six nine eight

154
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:50.919
seven two five seventy eight six six
nine eight seven two five seventy after the

155
00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:56.120
Clippers best second half of the season. I'll tell you that much coming up,

156
00:11:56.120 --> 00:11:58.320
we'll still have will Updyke join the
show. You'll hear from coach Lou

157
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:03.639
and Paul George postgame after he stuck
a three pointer, not just a Clippers

158
00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:09.879
comeback, appalled George comeback performance after
he had been struggling in the last three

159
00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.919
games. My player to watch coming
into this one. Knew he would have

160
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:18.000
to come up big, didn't know
exactly would be like that. What a

161
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:20.960
performance late in the fourth quarter,
went four of six from the field,

162
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:26.480
had eleven points and a three pointer
down two to get the Clippers to the

163
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:31.000
victory. As Raymond Green would miss
on the other end when he came when

164
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:35.519
he started off the ball game hitting
four to three pointers in the first quarter,

165
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:39.759
and I was shaking my head,
going maybe it's just not the Clippers

166
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:45.799
night. Maybe it's just not the
Clippers year. Maybe though this type of

167
00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:50.720
victory can turn the tide. Yeah, there's still a game under five hundred,

168
00:12:52.360 --> 00:12:56.120
but they got three days off and
then they'll welcome in the Denver Nuggets,

169
00:12:56.679 --> 00:13:01.159
and if they can slay that dragon, I'm deaf gonna be pounding my

170
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:05.799
chest and saying something was born out
of this comeback victory. The Clippers may

171
00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:11.279
have found their identity. They may
have found that spark whatever it's been missing

172
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:13.559
when they get down and I don't
like it. Don't get me wrong,

173
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:18.039
I said last Saturday when they were
down twenty one to the New Orleans Pelicans.

174
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:22.320
They can't keep doing this. But
if they've had an identity in the

175
00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:26.960
two pin to three era, it's
been the resiliency, the resolve, the

176
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:31.000
ability to come back. Nobody's had
more twenty point comebacks over the last five

177
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:35.840
seasons than your Los Angeles Clippers.
They had a thirty five point comeback,

178
00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:43.440
also second largest in NBA history.
This is what they do. Do They

179
00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:48.399
need to start faster on Wednesday against
Denver? Yes, are you gonna get

180
00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:52.799
away with that against the defending champs? I don't think so. You better

181
00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:56.960
come out like gangbusters. And that's
what we saw finally, and I'm gonna

182
00:13:56.960 --> 00:14:03.799
say the last seventeen minutes of the
ballgame from the midway point of the third

183
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:07.919
quarter, and it wasn't just Paul
George, James Harden had it going fifteen

184
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:13.120
points on the third alone, fifteen
of the Clippers thirty seven points in that

185
00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:16.600
third quarter when they were down by
nineteen and a half and twenty two.

186
00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:22.279
About a minute into the third,
James Harden stepped up. He started knocking

187
00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:26.159
down a couple of three pointers,
fouled on one of them, also was

188
00:14:26.240 --> 00:14:31.039
dishing dimes out there, led them
with nine assists to just one turnover.

189
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:37.360
The Clippers eleven turnovers total. I'm
gonna say they've only had twenty five turnovers

190
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:43.039
total over their last three ball games. That's been an area they've been cleaning

191
00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:46.360
up. And they had to be
sharp. And while they had that turnover

192
00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:50.919
from Kawhi looking for Terrence Man late
and I thought that might do them in.

193
00:14:52.639 --> 00:14:54.320
I thought that might be the nail
on the coffin for the Clippers.

194
00:14:56.200 --> 00:15:00.399
They just refused to lose today.
How many times have I s said that

195
00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:05.039
over the years with this group,
they showed that heart, they showed that

196
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:11.240
fight and a team that's willing to
battle and put on a show down the

197
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:16.679
stretch for their home fans. That's
a victory you can rally off of.

198
00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:20.759
This could be that jumping off point
for this team. They go three and

199
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:26.120
three over a stretch where they played
six games in nine days. Brutal,

200
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:30.440
extremely difficult. Nobody's got a worse
schedule than them. I'm not making that

201
00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:33.200
part up. Nobody has more five
and sevens. They got twenty five of

202
00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:39.559
these things, twenty five make it
three and four nines, but they got

203
00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:43.519
a ton of five and sevens as
well. Kawhi Leonard, though, also

204
00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:50.919
came through. He had eight points
in the fourth quarter and what in ato

205
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:56.440
for the two for one to get
them this victory by coach lou I said

206
00:15:56.440 --> 00:16:02.840
heading into the third man with how
good of Ittza zubots As looked six of

207
00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:07.519
six from the field, twelve and
seven in just twenty three minutes. How

208
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.879
is he not getting the ball more? Was complaining about it on Twitter.

209
00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:15.559
You gotta feed the guy, get
him more touches. He certainly earned a

210
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.240
chance to play late in this ball
game. I don't want to see him

211
00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:22.440
make the same mistake they did Thursday
night where he didn't get reps late when

212
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:26.519
the Clippers lost by six up at
Chase Center in San Francisco to these same

213
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:32.080
Golden State Warriors. He didn't come
back into the game in the fourth quarter,

214
00:16:32.360 --> 00:16:37.480
and it was the right move.
Daniel Tice stepped up, had a

215
00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:42.240
couple of big plays layups and dunks
off of passes from Kawhi and Paul George.

216
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:48.240
When the double came, they found
him cutting baseline and he brought that

217
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:52.159
energy and the Clippers were able to
switch more defensively, and that is how

218
00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:56.879
you hold Golden State to just twenty
points in the fourth quarter. And they

219
00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:00.840
stuck with that defense late. In
fact, they took out Tyson put in

220
00:17:00.919 --> 00:17:07.279
Russ had him, Norman Powell,
Paul George, Kawhi, Leonard and Terrence

221
00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:15.119
Man on the floor late and it
worked. Stifling defense. The switch ability

222
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:21.920
was there, switch everything, no
open looks and Draymond who I thought,

223
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:26.200
well, he's been playing above his
head from the outside all season long,

224
00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:30.279
but four to three pointers in the
first quarter, are you kidding me?

225
00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:36.000
He averages one made per game.
This is a guy that over basically since

226
00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:40.119
the seventy three win Warriors team that
would end up losing a three to one

227
00:17:40.200 --> 00:17:42.400
lead in the finals. Back in
twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen, when he

228
00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:45.799
shot thirty eight percent from the outside, he's been about thirty percent since then,

229
00:17:47.119 --> 00:17:51.279
and worse, he's been awful.
But off two and a half attempts

230
00:17:51.279 --> 00:17:55.799
per game coming into this one this
season, he's been knocking down one and

231
00:17:55.839 --> 00:18:00.880
that's forty six percent from three.
But come on four in the first that's

232
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:04.200
just deflating. I thought the Clippers, you know, it's just not their

233
00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:11.240
day, not their matinee. Usually
isn't another slow start. Down thirty three

234
00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:15.880
to twenty two in the first quarter, down nineteen at the half. If

235
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:21.400
Draymond Green and Jonathan Kaminga who hit
a three, are knocking down those shots,

236
00:18:21.880 --> 00:18:25.960
you gonna be able to beat this
Golden State Warriors team. Well,

237
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:30.119
Steph Curry went just seven of eighteen, had twenty two missed some late.

238
00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:37.519
Klay Thompson five of thirteen, four
of his five were three pointers, seventeen

239
00:18:37.559 --> 00:18:41.680
points instead of I want to say
twenty three Thursday night, and you just

240
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:45.400
killed the Clippers with ten straight at
one point late in that ball game.

241
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:49.759
For the Golden State Warriors. This
was more of a playoff type setting with

242
00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:53.160
the scheduling, because you got a
home and home, a game at Golden

243
00:18:53.160 --> 00:18:57.160
State, then a game today for
the Clippers back at home. So those

244
00:18:57.200 --> 00:19:03.720
adjustments, those little details, the
granular level the coaches get into and a

245
00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:07.880
back to back against the same team, it's different. It's more like a

246
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:11.240
playoff setting. You heard that from
coach Lou earlier in our pregame show,

247
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:15.599
and boy did he make the right
adjustments late. That was playoff high in

248
00:19:15.640 --> 00:19:22.960
the second half. Brilliant, truly
was Norman pal stepped up. I thought

249
00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:26.319
with some big ones couldn't get a
three pointer a go late, But two

250
00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:32.160
to five from the outside, twelve
points still playing hurt and was a plus

251
00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:37.599
fourteen in a game they won by
one. That's impressive. But this Clippers

252
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:41.680
starting lineup that got destroyed in the
first half, that just came out lifeless,

253
00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:47.480
down of the dead, sleepless like
effort out there. They got to

254
00:19:47.519 --> 00:19:51.480
stop with it. I don't care. I don't care about that. It

255
00:19:51.640 --> 00:19:56.920
being an afternoon start at home into
a dome can't come soon enough. I

256
00:19:56.000 --> 00:20:00.920
understand it all, and I know
how bad this team has been in these

257
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:06.759
positions where they just ease into ball
games for whatever reason. And I know

258
00:20:07.160 --> 00:20:11.920
it's a routine oriented thing. Nobody
else is playing games like this at home

259
00:20:11.960 --> 00:20:15.559
all the time because of the Kings
and the Lakers playing in this building.

260
00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:18.359
That's what happens to the Clippers.
Their third billing, hence into it Dome

261
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:25.640
can't come soon enough. But at
some point, no excuses. When you

262
00:20:25.799 --> 00:20:27.720
have so many of these early starts, you would think at some point they

263
00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:37.480
would get used to it. Well, they overcame a lifeless effort down twenty

264
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:44.599
two early third quarter to win one
thirteen to one twelve on a Paul George

265
00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:48.880
game winning three over his buddy and
Klay Thompson. They're friends if you listen

266
00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:55.000
to podcast p he was a guest
before. I'm sure they'll have a fun

267
00:20:55.039 --> 00:21:00.400
conversation after this one. But Kawhi
Leonard with two tough jumpers and then that

268
00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:03.000
lay up off the great feed from
Paul George, just that little shovel pass

269
00:21:03.039 --> 00:21:08.200
to him underneath the basket with about
thirty five seconds left. You got to

270
00:21:08.240 --> 00:21:12.960
execute before that three pointer to get
to a point where Paul George can make

271
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:18.559
the game winner, and they did. I know the Kawhi Leonard turnover to

272
00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:22.440
Terrence Man miscommunication there, but outside
of that, ooh, they were brilliant

273
00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:29.519
down the stretch, especially defensively the
Golden State Warriors. I want to say,

274
00:21:30.559 --> 00:21:36.079
in the last bit here of the
ball game, to get to one

275
00:21:36.200 --> 00:21:42.480
twelve, let's see one point.
They had three points in the last minute

276
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:47.599
and a half. Almost yeah,
three points from Golden State in the last

277
00:21:47.640 --> 00:21:52.519
minute and a half. Clippers defense
clamp City. God. I thought Kawhi

278
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:55.759
Leonard had a clean block on Steph
Curry. I'm still wondering about that play

279
00:21:55.759 --> 00:22:00.000
where he locked them up on the
far side baseline. Incredible. But the

280
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:07.119
Clippers played with desperation like they knew
they had to have it. Tyleru same

281
00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:12.240
coach, like that. This was
as necessary of a victory as they could

282
00:22:12.319 --> 00:22:17.440
have this early in the season.
I know there's still sixty one games left

283
00:22:17.519 --> 00:22:21.680
or whatever it is. I think
sixty three maybe, But this is the

284
00:22:21.759 --> 00:22:26.000
type of win that could turn your
season around where you could run off eight

285
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:30.880
of ten wins. I'm hoping that's
the case. Don't let this be a

286
00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:37.480
runoff or a one off, I
said on Twitter. You can't let this

287
00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:41.319
be a fake comeback. You can't
show that much heart just to come up

288
00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:48.079
short. They were right there,
down two, multiple times, down three,

289
00:22:48.200 --> 00:22:52.480
multiple times down four. It looked
like they couldn't get over the hump.

290
00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:56.240
I didn't think they were going to. And they'd take their first lead

291
00:22:56.279 --> 00:23:00.200
off that shot from Paul George order
to put them up by one. They

292
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:04.000
win one, thirteen to one,
twelve. Let's go to Tajus and wall

293
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:08.319
and out tagous here on Clippers stop
without a mas and what's up? Adam?

294
00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:14.359
You sound so much happier right now. I can't blame you. It

295
00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:21.160
was incredible game, incredible comeback.
Usually these comebacks are sparked by either a

296
00:23:21.160 --> 00:23:23.480
play or a player. I felt
like Harden was that player in that third

297
00:23:23.559 --> 00:23:27.480
quarter to spark it. He was
ye getting downhill, shooting, being aggressive,

298
00:23:27.559 --> 00:23:32.759
and they were Clippers were able to
generate so many more outside shots,

299
00:23:33.720 --> 00:23:36.960
open outside shots from his aggressiveness.
So I you know, I want to

300
00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:44.799
see that continue from the first quarter. I think that I was gonna ask

301
00:23:44.839 --> 00:23:51.079
you a few questions. One where
when the Clippers got that when Tyler called

302
00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:55.119
that time out and they got that
quick bucket from PG to Kohi and the

303
00:23:55.160 --> 00:23:57.519
reverse layup. Did they have any
more time outs left? I believe they

304
00:23:57.599 --> 00:24:02.039
had one left, and they they
didn't take it on that final play.

305
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:06.920
They didn't want Golden State to get
set defensively, Yeah, because you know,

306
00:24:06.920 --> 00:24:08.720
well what had happened if PG didn't
make it. The topic would have

307
00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:11.039
been should they have called the time
out and got hard and in Oh,

308
00:24:11.119 --> 00:24:15.319
of course, that's how it always
is, the Monday morning quarterbacking, the

309
00:24:15.400 --> 00:24:22.119
second guessing. Look, it makes
sense, get them scrambling defensively, try

310
00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:25.079
to find and look, it ended
up being a tough shot that Paul George

311
00:24:25.160 --> 00:24:27.960
just hit. There's not much you
can do defensively. In fact, it's

312
00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:32.640
almost like the reversal of what Damian
Lillard did to him. It wasn't from

313
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:36.200
that far out, but in that
game five, okay, see versus Portland

314
00:24:36.240 --> 00:24:37.880
a few years back in the playoffs
to close out the series. I don't

315
00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:41.240
know what Klay Thompson's supposed to do
there. And when Paul George is six

316
00:24:41.319 --> 00:24:44.960
' nine, it steps back for
a three pointer. That's tough to stop.

317
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:49.200
Yeah no, And I thought,
you know the comeback was going to

318
00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:55.000
fall short. When they called that, PG fell a take fal and then

319
00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:59.599
I lost pretty much all hope,
and somehow they still were able to overcome

320
00:24:59.640 --> 00:25:02.880
it. Uh. They played great
defense. You got to give Kawai kudos

321
00:25:02.920 --> 00:25:07.480
for sticking Curry in that first quarter. Uh. He played them pretty well,

322
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:10.279
you know, and he should have
got that. Did you see a

323
00:25:10.319 --> 00:25:15.200
foul there on that baseline play where
he blocked Curry. I didn't contested it

324
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:17.680
at all, but that doesn't mean
much. He's always stoic. I just

325
00:25:17.720 --> 00:25:22.359
felt like it looked like clean defense. Yeah, and maybe I'm biased.

326
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:26.119
I got the clipper goggles, but
I felt like in that quarter PG was

327
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:30.240
driving in. He was driving in
and he got fouled a few times and

328
00:25:30.279 --> 00:25:33.519
didn't get the call. I didn't
get the own one, But I mean,

329
00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:40.680
great win. Do you think we
will see I'm here a coffee in

330
00:25:40.720 --> 00:25:45.480
that substitution over Kobe Brown because I
felt like I understand that you want a

331
00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:48.480
big body, but when you're playing
the Warriors, maybe he wasn't as necessary

332
00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:53.480
to have Kobe versus a mirror.
Uh. Just just food for thought there.

333
00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:56.480
But overall, go win. And
like I said last time, Adam,

334
00:25:56.480 --> 00:26:00.440
when we see Denver, I hope
we put and those picking rolls and

335
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:06.920
attack him. Make them work defensively. I'm sorry, Tjus, I gotta

336
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:10.680
take a quick break. Let's pause
ten seconds for station and identification here on

KYSR HD two, Los Angeles,
and iHeartRadio station. Tajus, you were

340
00:26:25.200 --> 00:26:29.440
saying, make Jokic work on the
defensive ent. That's the only way to

341
00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:32.640
try to tire him out from being
that unstoppable force that he is on the

342
00:26:32.680 --> 00:26:37.720
offensive end. Yes, sir,
that's it. Let's go. Great win,

343
00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:42.440
Thanks Adam, Let's go. Clippers
come back down twenty two. They

344
00:26:42.480 --> 00:26:47.680
win one thirteen to one to twelve
over the Golden State Warriors. Hey,

345
00:26:47.680 --> 00:26:49.920
if I'm throwing you on hold,
it's because we'll eventually get to you.

346
00:26:51.039 --> 00:26:53.119
That's how it works. Don't hang
up. I'm putting you on hold for

347
00:26:53.119 --> 00:27:00.880
a reason. Howie chill Clippers with
no chill down the stretch though, big

348
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:07.160
shot after big shot, big stop
after big stop. Paul George is the

349
00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:11.480
hero in this one. After three
straight tough ball game shooting wise, he

350
00:27:11.640 --> 00:27:17.400
is the confidence to take that three
for the game winner. Unreal, Mitch

351
00:27:17.480 --> 00:27:19.880
Jose Morris, Howie, hold on, We'll get to you all more.

352
00:27:19.880 --> 00:27:26.319
Clippers stop coming up here on the
Empire seventy LA Sports loading Clippers fully loaded

353
00:27:26.519 --> 00:27:32.519
with Clippers fans. This is LA
Clippers basketball. You're listening to the LA

354
00:27:32.640 --> 00:27:38.880
Clippers on the LA Clippers Audio Network. No, you're worth that shot by

355
00:27:38.920 --> 00:27:45.960
Paul George worth a lot. Clippers
had to have it. They dug it

356
00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:51.160
out of the dirt, as Brian
Seman would say, coming back down twenty

357
00:27:51.279 --> 00:27:57.400
two when it looked like they had
given up early or just didn't come out

358
00:27:57.400 --> 00:28:00.920
with the right energy, the right
focus. Yes, but they had it

359
00:28:02.359 --> 00:28:07.759
late. Clippers showed up when they
had to have it, most down twenty

360
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:11.880
two early in the third, just
for Paul George to knock down a three

361
00:28:11.920 --> 00:28:15.680
pointer to win it one thirteen to
one to twelve over his buddy in Klay

362
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:21.079
Thompson. Welcome back into Clippers socc
I'm out a Maslin eight sixty six ninety

363

eight seven two five seventy eight sixty
sixty ninety eight seven two five seventy is

364
00:28:25.160 --> 00:28:30.079
the phone number had a caller earlier
tage just talking about James Harden and what

365
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:34.920
he was able to do in that
third quarter, brilliant play. When he

366
00:28:36.039 --> 00:28:42.200
wasn't scoring, he was grabbing the
defender's attention and then finding the open man.

367
00:28:44.440 --> 00:28:51.279
James Harden was throwing dimes out there. He jumpstarted this. Without his

368
00:28:51.519 --> 00:28:56.720
energy, they have no shot.
He ends up going seven to fourteen.

369
00:28:56.240 --> 00:29:00.920
Both of his threes I believe he
hit in the second quarter quarter excuse me.

370
00:29:00.759 --> 00:29:06.240
Also knocked down all his free throws, including three at the charity stripe

371
00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:11.319
in the third. Twenty one points, nine assists, one turnover. It

372
00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:18.799
is not a coincidence that the Clippers
haven't been turning the basketball over the last

373
00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:25.000
three games. That is a telltale
sign of guys starting to become more connected

374
00:29:25.160 --> 00:29:29.920
offensively, less and less miscues.
Now, the Kawhi back behind the back

375
00:29:30.000 --> 00:29:33.920
pass, the Terrence Man inexcusable,
can't happen there, Mental fatigue, whatever

376
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:38.000
it was. I don't know if
Man was supposed to stay where he was

377
00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:44.000
for a sixteen footer, but he
was trailing Kawhi instead, He's zigged.

378
00:29:44.319 --> 00:29:48.480
He was supposed to zag. I'm
sure Kawhi saying that's my bad on that

379
00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:51.839
one. But overall, the Clippers
just eleven turnovers and I want to say

380
00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:55.759
just seven and then six the game
before that. So we're talking about a

381
00:29:55.759 --> 00:30:00.920
team that is uh turn the ball
over at twenty five times total the last

382
00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:06.440
three ball games in that range.
Unbelievable. There's just there's no opportunity for

383
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:08.359
a comeback unless you take care of
the basketball, unless you're able to get

384
00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:15.400
up four more shots like they did
than the Golden State Warriors. The Clippers

385
00:30:15.480 --> 00:30:19.880
just completely looked like a different ball
club last sixteen seventeen, eighteen minutes of

386
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:26.480
this one. They win one thirteen, one twelve off a clutch three from

387
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:30.480
Paul George, who had been in
a shooting slump. I feel like he's

388
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:33.599
gonna be okay now. He ended
up four of eight though from the outside,

389
00:30:33.640 --> 00:30:37.720
eight of seventeen, twenty five points. Kawhi twenty points on just sixteen

390
00:30:37.759 --> 00:30:42.640
shots, two nasty jumpers, and
caught a little alleyup layup from James Harden

391
00:30:42.680 --> 00:30:47.519
in the fourth quarter. Howie in
the eight one eight, how we done?

392
00:30:47.759 --> 00:30:53.079
Howie? After this Clippers win?
Are we there? Howe? Howe?

393
00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.079
How are you gonna wait that long? You know what? It was

394
00:30:56.119 --> 00:31:00.920
my fault? Howie? What's up? Once in a while happens. I

395
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:06.720
got you, Ali, Yeah,
Hey, how you doing, Adam Alie,

396
00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:10.599
I'm asking you forget the pleasantries on
my end. You already heard my

397
00:31:10.680 --> 00:31:15.480
spiel. I'm good, okay.
So you know I wasn't gonna go to

398
00:31:15.519 --> 00:31:18.640
the game. My partner tuck me
into it. I thought it was gonna

399
00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:25.039
be another too much home cooking Mattinee
debacle. Told my partner, take my

400
00:31:25.079 --> 00:31:27.039
ticket, give it to somebody down
there. I'm not going to another Mattinee.

401
00:31:27.720 --> 00:31:30.680
I don't want to watch it again. But he tucked me into it,

402
00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:34.519
and I went, and I'm glad
I went. And the first half

403
00:31:34.599 --> 00:31:41.119
was kind of, you know,
that usual Mattinee Blarry dreary play. But

404
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:44.839
the second half, you know,
their defense won the game. I mean,

405
00:31:44.920 --> 00:31:48.559
their defense picked it up in the
second half. And Kawhi Leonard.

406
00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:52.000
If he doesn't get nominated for Defensive
Play of the Year, something's wrong.

407
00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:56.039
Somebody's not watching, because that guy's
unbelievable. As long as he plays enough

408
00:31:56.039 --> 00:32:00.119
games, he'll be in the hunt. And this Clippers team since the new

409
00:32:00.200 --> 00:32:06.200
starting lineup, they had been second
defensively over the last eight games coming into

410
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:09.440
this one, and they just held
Golden State to forty five points in the

411
00:32:09.480 --> 00:32:15.839
second half and outscored them sixty five
to or make it sixty six to forty

412
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:21.359
five. I believe it was.
Yeah, you're right. It had to

413
00:32:21.359 --> 00:32:23.200
start of the defensive end. When
you're coming back on a squad like this,

414
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:28.119
you got to figure it out.
And they were so disconnected in the

415
00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:30.440
first half in early in the third
quarter, I didn't think it was gonna

416
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:34.839
happen. It just shows you.
Look, yeah, go ahead, Ali,

417
00:32:35.720 --> 00:32:37.519
Yeah, one more thing I have
a problem with. I mean that

418
00:32:37.039 --> 00:32:40.599
I agree with you there that what
they're doing lately with the defense and everything,

419
00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:45.160
and the balls getting more fluid too, which is good. But one

420
00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:47.039
thing I got a problem with when
Tyler, when the team is coming back

421
00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:52.519
and they got the momentum going and
they get back to within a couple points,

422
00:32:52.599 --> 00:32:53.680
they were trailing by ten or fifteen, all of a sudden, I

423
00:32:53.720 --> 00:32:57.480
get back and I come back and
they get back within two. Tyler says,

424
00:32:57.519 --> 00:33:00.440
Okay, well, you guys have
done great. Take you out.

425
00:33:00.480 --> 00:33:04.039
Let me get another group of uh
our second back. Give me specifics,

426
00:33:04.079 --> 00:33:07.240
how when did that happen? Tell
me that happened. I think what was

427
00:33:07.279 --> 00:33:08.519
at the end of the third.
I mean when they made the comeback and

428
00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:12.519
they got it to within three,
and he took him out and he put

429
00:33:12.559 --> 00:33:15.920
in a He took out James Harden
because he was going to use him for

430
00:33:15.960 --> 00:33:20.440
the entire fourth quarter. He couldn't
play the entire second half. Do you

431
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:23.400
what do you want? Like there
have to be substitutions you got if James

432
00:33:23.400 --> 00:33:28.839
Harden isn't fresh, what how much
does he help you? Well? I

433
00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:30.640
know, but I mean if you're
if you're making a comeback and you got

434
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:35.599
the momentum going, my opinion is
take it to him. Take the lead.

435
00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:37.759
You got the team that's in there
that's bringing you back. They brought

436
00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:39.839
you back from fifteen down or twenty
down, whatever it is. Take the

437
00:33:39.880 --> 00:33:43.279
lead. Didn't give the guys a
rest, But don't stop short of four

438
00:33:43.359 --> 00:33:45.119
or five points, because after that
they went up again by ten points.

439
00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:47.559
As soon as they took him out, they went up again by ten points.

440
00:33:47.559 --> 00:33:50.759
I'm going, oh, no,
here we go again. Oh.

441
00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:52.720
But other than that, you know, it was a great game. It

442
00:33:52.759 --> 00:33:55.839
was a he he took out James
Harden when they were down eighty seven to

443
00:33:55.880 --> 00:34:00.720
seventy eight, with three to eleven
left in the third court. See this

444
00:34:00.759 --> 00:34:02.480
is why I test doesn't always work
for me. Howie, I'm sorry,

445
00:34:02.559 --> 00:34:09.000
but what actually happened out there is
logged historically. So they were still down

446
00:34:09.199 --> 00:34:14.599
by nine when he took out James
Harden, and they actually cut into the

447
00:34:14.639 --> 00:34:17.639
lead more from there. It was
a four point game after Norn Powell hit

448
00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:22.599
a three pointer with one minute left
in the third quarter. So actually,

449
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:28.119
uh, then it was a two
point game after Daniel Tice had a dunk

450
00:34:28.119 --> 00:34:31.639
off a pass from Russell Westbrook.
So that move or that line shift actually

451
00:34:31.679 --> 00:34:37.920
made it closer. Did you like
keeping Zoo out there? Howie? You

452
00:34:37.000 --> 00:34:40.639
just gonna shift after going after Coach
Lou? And then I actually bring that

453
00:34:40.679 --> 00:34:45.079
tea and he just acts like it
didn't happen. My goodness, post But

454
00:34:45.199 --> 00:34:50.039
I just I don't know much time
you was out for a while there,

455
00:34:51.519 --> 00:34:53.880
Howie, Howie Howe, Howe,
howe, howe, Howie. Zuola was

456
00:34:53.880 --> 00:34:59.199
out the entire fourth quarter. I
said to myself late in the third you

457
00:34:59.280 --> 00:35:02.000
gotta put Zoo back in. Sure
seemed like it worked keeping him out in

458
00:35:02.039 --> 00:35:06.719
that fourth quarter and having all that
versatility and switchability, don't you think Coach

459
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:09.519
Lou made the right move, all
right, he did there. Tys is

460
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:13.039
playing really good. He gave us
a lot there. It was great.

461
00:35:13.119 --> 00:35:15.039
Anyways, a great game. It
was a great win. It was a

462
00:35:15.039 --> 00:35:17.400
big win. Hopefully that kicks us
in the gear and you know, be

463
00:35:17.480 --> 00:35:21.159
there Wednesday for the Denver game.
So let's see what happens. Let's go,

464
00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:23.440
Howie, let's go. They got
a build off of this. This

465
00:35:23.480 --> 00:35:27.639
can't be the end. This can't
just be a blip. This can't just

466
00:35:27.679 --> 00:35:30.679
be one good Clippers comeback, and
then they go right back to the bad

467
00:35:30.719 --> 00:35:37.920
habits they've been showing. And look, this is game nine with the new

468
00:35:37.960 --> 00:35:43.599
starting lineup with Terrence Man next to
James Harden And another move I liked was

469
00:35:43.639 --> 00:35:46.800
putting in Norman Palace to start the
third quarter. They needed something offensively,

470
00:35:46.840 --> 00:35:51.920
and Terrence Man has been turning down
shots. But he did hit a clutch.

471
00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:54.039
He hit a clutch three pointer in
the second half. I want to

472
00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:58.039
see how much time was left when
he hit that. It was a big

473
00:35:58.039 --> 00:36:00.840
shot from t Man. I believe
it was second half. It might have

474
00:36:00.840 --> 00:36:07.320
been third quarter. So there were
some shuffling of lineups. Coach lou was

475
00:36:07.320 --> 00:36:12.000
searching for something. He played ten
different lineups in the first half. Ten

476
00:36:13.039 --> 00:36:17.599
that's unbelievable. But starting the third
quarter with Norman Powell instead of Terrence Man

477
00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:24.320
who's still struggling with a shot one
of five from the outside. But I

478
00:36:24.400 --> 00:36:31.719
love the desperation they played with the
urgency. Finally hopefully they found something.

479
00:36:32.360 --> 00:36:37.519
It's not a personnel thing. It
can be a lineup rotation thing at times.

480
00:36:37.559 --> 00:36:42.880
They have to zone in on that
make sure the second unit is strong.

481
00:36:42.920 --> 00:36:46.960
They're still trying to find something.
But the starting lineup works. Whether

482
00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:52.719
or not you want to put Norm
next to James Harden or Terrence Man one

483
00:36:52.760 --> 00:36:57.840
obviously a much better defender, one
better on offense. They just have to

484
00:36:58.039 --> 00:37:02.960
play harder. How you get that
out of them? Too often it takes

485
00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:07.239
a big lead for them to click
in. I don't like that. I

486
00:37:07.239 --> 00:37:12.119
think it's a bad habit and it's
something that's been developed over years with this

487
00:37:12.199 --> 00:37:15.239
team because well, they have had
a lot of success coming back on teams.

488
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:19.400
But if you want to be a
championship ball club, you got to

489
00:37:19.679 --> 00:37:22.840
come out of the gates like Gangbusters
as well. You've got to start fast

490
00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:29.519
too, and they've been better.
But one PM tip oh brutal one in

491
00:37:29.559 --> 00:37:32.880
this game. Still Clippers come up
with a big victory down twenty two Paul

492
00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:36.679
George's game winner, Morris A long
beach. What's up here on Clipperstock?

493
00:37:37.000 --> 00:37:40.239
Clipper Nation, Dave waiting for the
sleeper team to rock and roote. No

494
00:37:40.239 --> 00:37:43.320
no, no, no no no
no no no no no after that,

495
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:47.599
Slipper Nation, Dave waiting for the
stiperate team to rock and roll. After

496
00:37:47.719 --> 00:37:51.400
that, Clipper Nation, they've been
waiting for the Cripper team to say,

497
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:59.360
Yo, Denver got nothing coming,
behave yourself at them. Nothing coming or

498
00:37:59.400 --> 00:38:01.199
something coming. I hope it's something
coming, and I hope it's the Clippers.

499
00:38:01.920 --> 00:38:05.960
I would love for them to turn
into a buzz saw after a victory

500
00:38:06.079 --> 00:38:12.079
like this, but time will tell. Now they got time off, that's

501
00:38:12.119 --> 00:38:15.800
a good thing after playing six games
and nine days, but they got to

502
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:21.199
beat Denver period lost to them nine
straight times, eleven of the last twelve,

503
00:38:21.519 --> 00:38:25.719
and the last loss was the worst
loss in my opinion, just about

504
00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:30.840
a week ago last Monday against Reggie
Jackson and DeAndre Jordan, with Denver missing

505
00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:37.760
their big three, and they still
somehow just didn't play with enough effort in

506
00:38:37.920 --> 00:38:43.400
urgency it's really that simple. Sometimes
with this team, I know it seems

507
00:38:43.480 --> 00:38:47.440
really rudimentary and basketball one on one
and just outplay the team and play harder.

508
00:38:47.800 --> 00:38:52.519
There are teams that get by in
the regular season just by playing harder

509
00:38:52.519 --> 00:38:55.800
than you talent will win in the
playoffs everybody plays hard. Then there are

510
00:38:55.840 --> 00:39:04.280
teams that lose that shouldn't every night
because they were outworked, not out talented,

511
00:39:04.360 --> 00:39:09.719
outworked. The Clippers have to get
that root, have that ingrained in

512
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:16.880
their skull. I don't know,
but this team has just this awful habit

513
00:39:19.000 --> 00:39:22.360
of not necessarily playing down to your
competition against the Golden State Warriors, but

514
00:39:22.440 --> 00:39:29.360
just starting slow. And it's emphasized
when it's an early Mattine home game.

515
00:39:30.159 --> 00:39:34.280
But overall they do this and then
they show you how good they could be

516
00:39:34.360 --> 00:39:38.440
in the second half, and it's
great. But if you start like that

517
00:39:38.559 --> 00:39:43.119
against Denver, I don't think you're
coming back down twenty two against the World

518
00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:46.920
champs on Wednesday. Play like you
did in the second half, I think

519
00:39:46.960 --> 00:39:51.480
you're beating Denver. I think the
pieces are there, I think they have

520
00:39:51.559 --> 00:39:55.159
the guys. I just think it's
a mindset period. Let's hear from coach

521
00:39:55.199 --> 00:40:01.079
Lou post game, Clippers come back
down twenty two with a Paul George step

522
00:40:01.159 --> 00:40:06.800
back three. That was the eventual
game winning shot. And here was coach

523
00:40:06.880 --> 00:40:10.920
Lou post game, Hey, you
guys led that game for eight point nine

524
00:40:10.960 --> 00:40:15.960
seconds, the final point nine seconds. Uh what did it take for you

525
00:40:15.960 --> 00:40:21.199
guys to just get over that final
humble there in the end. I think

526
00:40:21.280 --> 00:40:24.599
just being resilient, Like we knew
we didn't play well, especially in that

527
00:40:24.679 --> 00:40:28.639
first half, and had a lot
of defensive breakdowns and a lot of mistakes.

528
00:40:28.679 --> 00:40:30.159
But you know, when you play
the Warriors, you're gonna have a

529
00:40:30.159 --> 00:40:34.719
lot of breakdowns if you're not locked
in. And so with Steph and Clay,

530
00:40:34.800 --> 00:40:37.400
you know, coming off those screens, you know, your first instinct

531
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:39.320
is to switch out. They get
you on the slip for layups and dunks,

532
00:40:39.320 --> 00:40:44.440
and so just the game plan mistakes
we had were just it was just

533
00:40:44.480 --> 00:40:47.960
too much, you know, it's
too many. And then, you know,

534
00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:51.719
like I said, other than that, you know, I thought offensive,

535
00:40:51.719 --> 00:40:52.559
we got some good shots that we
didn't make. You know, we

536
00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:57.440
got some open looks that we didn't
make. But just staying with just staying

537
00:40:57.480 --> 00:41:00.440
with it, you know, I
think getting past all the mistake. You

538
00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:02.079
know, just this is a gutsy
win for us, and we needed to

539
00:41:02.079 --> 00:41:05.800
win like this just to you know, keep fighting, keep scrapping, keep

540
00:41:05.840 --> 00:41:12.880
competing and winning a big game like
this. Scratching and clawing and fighting and

541
00:41:12.920 --> 00:41:15.320
battling their way to victories. That's
what it's gotta be with this group.

542
00:41:15.440 --> 00:41:22.480
The talent is there, mindset wise, and they can't come out with game

543
00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:25.159
plan mistakes like that. There was
a lot of pick and roll going with

544
00:41:25.199 --> 00:41:31.000
Steph Curry and Draymond Green early in
the third quarter. Nasty stuff by the

545
00:41:31.000 --> 00:41:37.159
Clippers defensively, Oh, they made
the adjustments. Crouch Loops told them,

546
00:41:38.039 --> 00:41:42.679
I'm gonna tell you this all season
long. I keep it pinned at follow

547
00:41:42.719 --> 00:41:45.119
out of may On X. But
Kawhi Leonard, you know what, I'll

548
00:41:45.159 --> 00:41:50.360
just play it for you when we
come back. At some point, the

549
00:41:50.400 --> 00:41:57.960
players have to look inwards. The
messaging has been there. Stop acting like

550
00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:02.119
you already won the last two championship
and you can just flip a switch.

551
00:42:05.599 --> 00:42:10.440
Play with that greediness to start,
play like through the underdog. That's what

552
00:42:10.480 --> 00:42:15.360
it's got to be from this team. Tonight, they showed some championship type

553
00:42:15.400 --> 00:42:22.960
of metal late, some playoff intensity
late, bring it early Wednesday against Denver.

554

Want to see it? But what
a bacdory Clipper Nation exhilarating Carloman is

555
00:42:28.800 --> 00:42:30.559
a great call, by the way, edge of my seat. Clippers win

556
00:42:30.599 --> 00:42:37.199
one thirteen to one to twelve over
the Golden State Warriors off a Paul George

557
00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:39.320

by twenty two. And you're listening to

Clippers Basketball Isa the two one three
era continues. You're listening to the La

587
00:44:54.679 --> 00:45:00.000
Clippers on the La Clippers Audio Network. You know, I was calling out

588
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:05.039
Paul George earlier in this game because
some of his defense against Golden State Thursday

589
00:45:05.119 --> 00:45:10.880
night not good, just unserious,
unfocused stuff. He got beat off the

590
00:45:10.960 --> 00:45:16.239
dribble by Dario Sarich on a layup. He's guarding him out on the perimeter

591
00:45:16.360 --> 00:45:22.559
and Dario Saarich beat him to the
basket for an easy one. And I

592
00:45:22.599 --> 00:45:24.559
just thought, Wow, Paul George
is completely checked out here. How can

593
00:45:24.599 --> 00:45:31.159
that happen? How can he let
that happen? But he totally redeemed himself.

up too. But here was the

597
00:45:43.280 --> 00:45:47.239
down two with just seconds remaining.
In the fourth, Slippers down by two,

598
00:45:47.599 --> 00:45:52.800
George with ten four wings, step
back three dame on. Clippers lead

599
00:45:53.119 --> 00:45:59.400
for the first time today with nine
seconds left, one thirteen one, twelve

600
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:07.360
time out Steve Per The Clippers were
down twenty two. They outscored Golden State

601
00:46:07.360 --> 00:46:12.239
by twenty in the second half,
sixty five to forty five, which tells

602
00:46:12.280 --> 00:46:16.000
you they were down by nineteen.
They come through and win in Clapper in

603
00:46:16.079 --> 00:46:21.199
the classic Clippers comeback fashion. Not
easy to say. Toy boat, toy

604
00:46:21.199 --> 00:46:23.360
boat, toy boat. All right, Sean and Inglewood, you're on Clippers

605
00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:27.719
South without of Mawson. What's up, Sean? Been a while? Yes,

606
00:46:27.719 --> 00:46:30.199
it's been a whiley Adam. I
want to say a couple of things.

607
00:46:30.199 --> 00:46:32.599
First of all, I'd like to
get Paul George into the All Star

608
00:46:32.719 --> 00:46:37.119
Game, so everybody get out your
votes. You know, Kawhii and Hardens

609
00:46:37.159 --> 00:46:40.599
are going to get their notoriety anyway. But I like to see Paul George

610
00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:46.960
in there. And I think tym
Lou probably coached his best second half I've

611
00:46:46.960 --> 00:46:51.920
ever seen him coach. He put
Russ in there for defense at the end.

612
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:54.880
He put Zubac in for rebounding at
the end. Huh. He'd made

613
00:46:55.159 --> 00:47:00.760
different changes where usually he's just not
changing anything. And the best change he

614
00:47:00.880 --> 00:47:07.119
made was Kawhi on step at the
end of the game. So I'm sure

615
00:47:07.159 --> 00:47:09.480
that was doing. Hey, can
I tell you something, Sean Zubats never

616
00:47:09.519 --> 00:47:13.960
came back in the ballgame late.
He never played in the fourth quarter.

617
00:47:14.800 --> 00:47:19.760
Just so you know, the rebound, he never He never came back into

618
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:23.719
the ballgame, not for that rebound, for the one of the free throw

619
00:47:23.880 --> 00:47:28.119
he was at twenty two minutes and
forty seconds end of the third quarter.

620
00:47:28.280 --> 00:47:31.719
He ended the game at twenty two
minutes and forty seconds. Watch a little

621
00:47:31.719 --> 00:47:37.480
bit closer next week. Excuse me, I love you to Adam. Okay,

622
00:47:37.840 --> 00:47:40.719
I'm just saying Sean coach Lou won
this game for them, not by

623
00:47:40.760 --> 00:47:47.280
going big, say he made But
Jean, if they lose this game,

624
00:47:49.000 --> 00:47:52.079
I bet you're saying, why wasn't
a Zubos playing in that fourth quarter?

625
00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:54.320
And guess what, it was the
right move. So give him some luck.

626
00:47:55.599 --> 00:48:00.079
Okay, So let's start that be
nice and give coach Lowse some love.

627
00:48:01.159 --> 00:48:07.760
He didn't play, He didn't hear
by not using your philosophy that you

628
00:48:07.840 --> 00:48:13.000
call in with every single night.
It flies in the face of what you

629
00:48:13.039 --> 00:48:19.159
always say, you gotta play too
big and rush. Getting that rebound was

630
00:48:19.159 --> 00:48:23.840
a big change, and the Kawai
Diick and Curry was a big change.

631
00:48:24.599 --> 00:48:30.480
Okay, So I mean I am
right nine time, sir. But I'm

632
00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:37.159
just saying, hey, Sean,
are you warming up to James Harden yet?

633
00:48:38.719 --> 00:48:43.079
Did you away still out? Uh? Huh uh huh uh huh.

634
00:48:43.119 --> 00:48:45.199
Have you seen how good the starting
Sean? Have you seen how good the

635
00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:49.519
starting lineup has been? Have you
seen how good the starting lineup has been

636
00:48:49.559 --> 00:48:54.239
overall? With James Harden next to
Terrence Man or Norm Powell. I see

637
00:48:54.280 --> 00:48:58.719
it, And I also want to
say, I just heard you say to

638
00:48:58.840 --> 00:49:02.280
get start. They did. It's
one game out of nine, Sean.

639
00:49:02.960 --> 00:49:07.440
Overall, they've been very good the
starting lineup. The numbers don't lie.

640
00:49:07.800 --> 00:49:14.000
They're a plus twenty two net rating
this new starting lineup. Okay, look

641
00:49:14.039 --> 00:49:17.480
we got a victory and go Clippers
and love for all Clipper Nation. I'm

642
00:49:17.519 --> 00:49:22.480
not arguing with you today, all
right, Sean. I just look,

643
00:49:23.559 --> 00:49:28.480
you call in every night saying the
same stuff, bagging on coach Lou for

644
00:49:28.519 --> 00:49:32.599
not going big and he doesn't.
And you thought Zubats was in the game

645
00:49:32.679 --> 00:49:37.960
light, which he wasn't. I
baffling. I just think you got to

646
00:49:38.000 --> 00:49:43.960
give more love to coach Liu and
that strategy that worked that you say never

647
00:49:44.039 --> 00:49:47.280
works and you say he's obsessed with
small ball, and tonight it works.

648
00:49:47.480 --> 00:49:53.440
So I would say, not enough
of a mia koppa from Seawan and Inglewood

649
00:49:53.480 --> 00:49:57.639
there, But it's all good.
We love him anyways. Sean and Inglewood

650
00:49:57.760 --> 00:50:00.960
one of our favorites been calling for
a long time. Jeff Leavingcrypto dot Com

651
00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:07.440
arena after the Clippers most exciting victory
of the season. That's definitive, Jeff,

652
00:50:07.480 --> 00:50:12.920
what's up? I just want to
say, awesome win, Adham,

653
00:50:13.159 --> 00:50:19.440
And I'd also like to add Sean
was right. I think Big Zoo did

654
00:50:19.440 --> 00:50:22.440
come in at the end of the
game. So how come he never played

655
00:50:22.559 --> 00:50:27.360
another minute? How come the box
score says he's still at twenty two minutes

656
00:50:27.400 --> 00:50:31.199
and forty seconds watch the game,
even if he was at the free throw

657
00:50:31.280 --> 00:50:35.159
line for a second, and then
they called the time out and they took

658
00:50:35.239 --> 00:50:37.679
him and he took him back out
like no time passed during that moment.

659
00:50:37.800 --> 00:50:42.199
Okay, that's well, and that
might have been what happened because it was

660
00:50:42.239 --> 00:50:45.840
only like for five or eight seconds
when we're talking about a guy who went

661
00:50:45.920 --> 00:50:49.400
six of six from the field,
had twelve points, seven boards, and

662
00:50:49.480 --> 00:50:52.599
he didn't play in the fourth quarter
and it worked. Yeah, and it

663
00:50:52.639 --> 00:51:00.000
worked. No, I agree though
Russ had a fake rebound there and PG

664
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:06.079
awesome. I knew it was good
when it left his hand. So beautiful

665
00:51:06.119 --> 00:51:08.440
win. I like to hear it. Jeff, we'll talk to you on

666
00:51:08.440 --> 00:51:13.239
Wednesday. All right, you gotta
bite. All right, let's go to

667
00:51:13.559 --> 00:51:17.239
Mitch and Nijizzy. Mitch, you're
on clipperstock without of Mawson. Are you

668
00:51:17.320 --> 00:51:23.079
man? Happy holidays? It's snowing
because how we have men engage the games

669
00:51:23.199 --> 00:51:30.280
or early? How can you say
team has four Hall of Famers? And

670
00:51:30.599 --> 00:51:37.559
I think it's at first, it's
not because the Golden State Warriors literally had

671
00:51:37.920 --> 00:51:44.199
four Hall of Famers recently. Oh
that's sure, Green worldline, I'm just

672
00:51:44.239 --> 00:51:47.280
not Green is not borderline. He's
a four time champion, Mitch. Watch

673
00:51:47.280 --> 00:51:50.920
more basketball, the Hall of Fame, the NBA Hall of Fame. It's

674
00:51:50.920 --> 00:51:53.159
a pretty low bar. Draymond Green
is a multiple time defensive Player of the

675
00:51:53.239 --> 00:51:57.159
Year. He's one of the best
defenders of his generation. He is a

676
00:51:57.199 --> 00:52:01.440
lock for the Hall of Fame.
You know, Louis So won five four

677
00:52:01.519 --> 00:52:05.840
rings with the Yankees. And who's
the backup second base from show anyway?

678
00:52:05.920 --> 00:52:07.639
Yeah, Draymond plays thirty five minutes
a night. He's not a backup.

679
00:52:07.679 --> 00:52:15.239
It's not comparable. I stand corrected, and you know, I don't realize

680
00:52:15.400 --> 00:52:20.280
you cool I turned rate. I
realize in the cool games too. It's

681
00:52:20.320 --> 00:52:25.039
it's great. It's gonna be on
with more the young players play more of

682
00:52:25.079 --> 00:52:29.800
the young plays. The world arrested. It's a long season, right,

683
00:52:29.920 --> 00:52:34.079
Well, they played Kobe Brown,
they played him eleven minutes. Yeah,

684
00:52:34.159 --> 00:52:39.639
I like that. I want to
see more coffee and Moody. I I

685
00:52:39.760 --> 00:52:45.719
like his playing zero because he doesn't
do much in Michael All. Moody plays

686
00:52:45.760 --> 00:52:51.039
for Golden State, Kevon Looney,
he also plays for I don't know where

687
00:52:51.079 --> 00:52:53.920
he's going with that. Moody also
plays for Golden State. Is he a

688
00:52:53.920 --> 00:52:58.199
Clipper? Katie's like telling me Moody. I'm like, yeah, I know,

689
00:52:58.280 --> 00:53:00.760
he doesn't play for the Clippers.
He's not with they're young guys.

690
00:53:00.840 --> 00:53:04.840
Musa. Maybe you met Musa there, I'm trying to interpret. I love

691
00:53:04.920 --> 00:53:08.880
the accent with Mitch and he's a
long time caller here too. Clippers come

692
00:53:08.960 --> 00:53:14.360
through and you know what, We'll
save Jose and Southgate for our final call

693
00:53:14.440 --> 00:53:16.079
tonight. You know what that's about. We'll take a quick time out,

694
00:53:16.320 --> 00:53:22.000
we'll come back. We'll still hear
from Paul George. I just want you

695
00:53:22.119 --> 00:53:28.960
all to give coach lu credit for
not playing big late. That's all because

696
00:53:29.039 --> 00:53:31.960
I know if they had lost this
game they were very close to doing,

697
00:53:34.960 --> 00:53:37.360
it would have been all about if
Itza Zubats not playing in that fourth quarter

698
00:53:37.960 --> 00:53:44.320
after he had twelve and seven and
was six for six from the field.

699
00:53:47.719 --> 00:53:52.079
Yeah, I'm let me think about
that one more Clippers suck Next Maybe we'll

700
00:53:52.079 --> 00:53:55.519
get to casual Katie's corner too,
since it seems like it started early tonight

701
00:53:55.559 --> 00:54:00.440
with some of the guesses she just
gave me. Xavier Moon didn't play in

702
00:54:00.480 --> 00:54:02.920
this game, Katie. He wasn't
talking about Moon. Maybe he was,

703
00:54:04.159 --> 00:54:07.559
Maybe he was. I don't know. Clippers, Paul George, game winning

704
00:54:07.599 --> 00:54:10.719
three. Who what a shot?
One thirteen, one to twelve? Your

705
00:54:10.719 --> 00:54:16.639
final This is Clippers talk here on
a five seventy LA Sports Loading Clippers fully

706
00:54:16.679 --> 00:54:22.920
loaded with Clippers fans. This is
LA Clippers basketball. You're listening to the

707
00:54:22.119 --> 00:54:28.400
LA Clippers on the LA Clippers Audio
Network. Clippers win on a PG thirteen

708
00:54:28.599 --> 00:54:32.400
game winning step back three over Klay
Thompson one thirteen, one twenty two as

709
00:54:32.440 --> 00:54:37.880
they complete make it one twelve.
They completed twenty two point comeback. Huge,

710
00:54:38.920 --> 00:54:44.880
huge comeback by the Clippers. Said
that a lot over the years would

711
00:54:44.920 --> 00:54:49.960
like to see them play from ahead
more often. We'll see if something was

712
00:54:50.079 --> 00:54:52.519
born out of this win by the
Clippers, as I like to say,

713
00:54:52.679 --> 00:54:57.519
is Will Updike joins the show here
on Clippers stock a medame Oslin. We

714
00:54:57.559 --> 00:55:00.719
got Will Updike on from C and
D clips and dip Will. We were

715
00:55:00.760 --> 00:55:06.880
texting during it talking about Draymond Green
and how ridiculous it was he knocked down

716
00:55:06.920 --> 00:55:09.199
four to three pointers. Well,
he missed the one to win the ball

717
00:55:09.239 --> 00:55:15.199
game. So finally the law of
averages played in the Clippers favor when they

718
00:55:15.239 --> 00:55:19.360
needed it most. But what a
victory, What a victory. It's one

719
00:55:19.400 --> 00:55:22.400
of those things, you know.
I was a little critical of how they

720
00:55:22.400 --> 00:55:27.239
were defending him there in that first
quarter, especially after he just continued to

721
00:55:27.360 --> 00:55:30.320
knock him down. You know,
it gives me, It always gives me

722
00:55:30.440 --> 00:55:34.039
kind of bad flashbacks to you know, Yonisllad shooting his game or something like

723
00:55:34.119 --> 00:55:37.119
that. But yeah, you're you're
absolutely right. Like they stuck to the

724
00:55:37.159 --> 00:55:42.159
game plan. They actually executed the
game plan in the second half, playing

725
00:55:42.280 --> 00:55:47.159
with more pace, stepping things UPSI
defensively of the physicality and it paid off.

726
00:55:47.840 --> 00:55:52.480
Thirty one assists to just eleven turnovers, and they have been turning over

727
00:55:52.519 --> 00:55:57.000
the ball. I think they've only
had twenty five turnovers over the last three

728
00:55:57.039 --> 00:56:00.239
games total. It's been kind of
ridiculous, and to me that is a

729
00:56:00.280 --> 00:56:05.840
sign that guys are starting to get
on the same page offensively more, especially

730
00:56:05.920 --> 00:56:09.519
with the new starting unit that is
now six and three since they went to

731
00:56:09.559 --> 00:56:13.960
it. And even though they started
Norm Powell in the second half, I

732
00:56:14.000 --> 00:56:16.320
didn't mind that, as Terrence Man
has been turning down shots. He would

733
00:56:16.360 --> 00:56:22.320
knock down one three pointer. But
this Clipper starting lineup overall, it's been

734
00:56:22.480 --> 00:56:25.639
very successful. They just got to
figure out the bench. Now. Yeah,

735
00:56:25.760 --> 00:56:30.559
yeah, the bench was better in
this one, but we've seen them

736
00:56:30.639 --> 00:56:35.159
hemorrhage points even where even in games
where the Clippers don't have like a dreadfully

737
00:56:35.239 --> 00:56:38.119
slow start. You know, we've
seen the starters able to pile things on,

738
00:56:38.159 --> 00:56:42.159
you know, establish a ten twelve
point lead and it just kind of

739
00:56:42.280 --> 00:56:45.119
be immediately messed away by the bench. That's something to figure out for sure.

740
00:56:45.400 --> 00:56:49.440
The Terrence thing, for me,
at what level did we start to

741
00:56:49.440 --> 00:56:52.000
become concerned? It was really relieving
to see him make that three in the

742
00:56:52.039 --> 00:56:55.960
second half. I don't know if
this is just due to him coming back

743
00:56:55.960 --> 00:57:00.920
from that ankle injury or what the
dealers we know about the passiveness, but

744
00:57:00.000 --> 00:57:04.400
I think that that's only being exacerbated
by a lot of those shots, even

745
00:57:04.440 --> 00:57:07.199
when he's willing to take them,
not going in. What are you seeing?

746
00:57:07.239 --> 00:57:09.480
Is this just a return from injury. Has something significant changed in his

747
00:57:09.599 --> 00:57:14.880
release or form. I'm just not
really understanding why this isn't why this isn't

748
00:57:14.920 --> 00:57:17.159
what we've normally seen. I mean, he's at sixteen percent now from three

749
00:57:17.320 --> 00:57:21.719
on the season. I'm guessing it's
just low confidence. It's not like there's

750
00:57:21.760 --> 00:57:24.360
anything physically wrong with him. It's
just between the ears. He started missing

751
00:57:24.400 --> 00:57:29.320
some early when he came back,
and now it's just this mental block.

752
00:57:29.400 --> 00:57:32.840
Right now, I still I still
like Terrence Man in the starting lineup.

753
00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:37.840
I hope they do keep it that
way because he offers so much in so

754
00:57:37.880 --> 00:57:43.320
many different areas, and typically he
gets more easy baskets at the rim.

755
00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:46.719
We saw that the last couple of
games against Sacramento and then up Nor taken

756
00:57:46.800 --> 00:57:51.719
on the Golden State Warriors. I'm
not overly concerned. It would be nice

757
00:57:52.039 --> 00:57:53.599
if you just have a game where
he get it out of his system and

758
00:57:53.639 --> 00:57:57.760
knock down four three pointers or something
like that and get over the hump,

759
00:57:57.800 --> 00:58:00.920
because that's basically what we saw from
George and I and I know completely different

760
00:58:00.920 --> 00:58:05.920
scores, but Paul George was struggling
the last three games and he ends up

761
00:58:06.000 --> 00:58:08.800
knocking down the game winner after he
had a miserable start to this one as

762
00:58:08.800 --> 00:58:14.320
well. Will he just found his
shot his rhythm eventually. Yeah, yeah,

763
00:58:14.400 --> 00:58:17.079
And that's been another one of those
things is we've had issues getting like

764
00:58:17.159 --> 00:58:21.159
the Big three to all sort of
be in rhythm and have those sort of

765
00:58:21.159 --> 00:58:24.119
games together, and Paul especially,
I thought to start this game, the

766
00:58:24.239 --> 00:58:28.719
offensive woes are one of those things
that is going to come and go.

767
00:58:28.800 --> 00:58:31.599
Like it's understandable. He's generally a
high volume guy. He's gonna have knights

768
00:58:31.599 --> 00:58:35.480
that aren't high at nights, he's
gonna have stretches that aren't great. I

769
00:58:35.559 --> 00:58:38.039
thought, like the defining thing for
Paul George that was really bad in the

770
00:58:38.039 --> 00:58:43.480
first half was that defensive effort which
he completely turned around and lo and behold,

771
00:58:43.639 --> 00:58:45.159
some shots started falling in. I
do think it's one of those things

772
00:58:45.159 --> 00:58:49.159
where you know, we have the
blueprint, we know what the blueprint is.

773
00:58:49.199 --> 00:58:52.239
Paul George knows what the blueprint is. If he doesn't have it going,

774
00:58:52.440 --> 00:58:55.880
he commits more defensively, and that
confidence usually carries over to the other

775
00:58:57.000 --> 00:58:59.800
end, and it certainly did in
this one. Nineteen points in the second

776
00:58:59.800 --> 00:59:01.719
half, eleven in the fourth frame
there, and I mean, as you

777
00:59:01.760 --> 00:59:07.079
already mentioned, huge shots, huge
shot to complete the comeback victory. You

778
00:59:07.119 --> 00:59:09.679
know you just couldn't ask for more. But that's the trustrating thing I guess

779
00:59:09.719 --> 00:59:13.480
about this team that I feel like
again and again we have the blue prank.

780
00:59:13.639 --> 00:59:17.599
It just it needs to be executed
and there has to be there as

781
00:59:17.679 --> 00:59:21.559
we kind of figure out rotations and
stuff more, which I thought Tylerue did

782
00:59:21.719 --> 00:59:24.360
a better job managing that. There's
less and less excuses for the players to

783
00:59:24.360 --> 00:59:29.559
not be executing on these game plans. Yeah, I think the message is

784
00:59:29.599 --> 00:59:32.840
there. Whether or not it's received, whether or not they're starting off games

785
00:59:32.840 --> 00:59:38.079
engaged and fully focused is a whole
nother thing. But when I hear from

786
00:59:38.159 --> 00:59:43.519
Coach Lou pregame and postgame, if
he's saying it to the media, he's

787
00:59:43.519 --> 00:59:47.079
saying it to the players, it's
the same thing, and they just I

788
00:59:47.079 --> 00:59:51.280
don't know. It's this quote from
Kawhi Leonard that I keep thinking about.

789
00:59:51.320 --> 00:59:53.920
We'll play it at the end of
the show. But basically, either the

790
00:59:54.000 --> 00:59:59.119
light goes on from the players,
you can only receive the same message a

791
00:59:59.159 --> 01:00:01.239
few different times. There are a
few different ways before it's up to you

792
01:00:01.920 --> 01:00:07.199
to receive it and to have it
translate into success on the court, and

793
01:00:07.239 --> 01:00:09.960
there just hasn't been enough of that
so far. I want to shout out

794
01:00:10.000 --> 01:00:15.000
Coach Lou though, as I have
been tonight, because I thought early on

795
01:00:15.239 --> 01:00:17.639
and I still think of each Zuba
should get more touches. When he is

796
01:00:17.760 --> 01:00:22.320
six for six from the field and
I think five for five in the first

797
01:00:22.360 --> 01:00:28.199
half and got one attempt up midway
through the third quarter, I think it

798
01:00:28.280 --> 01:00:31.519
was they have this guy who is
absolutely detonating at the rim right now and

799
01:00:31.559 --> 01:00:35.800
playing his best basketball the season.
By the way, since this lineup changed

800
01:00:35.840 --> 01:00:37.719
with the starters and they're not going
to him enough, I don't know what

801
01:00:37.800 --> 01:00:42.719
he has to do now. I
give coach Lou credit because I would have

802
01:00:42.800 --> 01:00:45.079
thought at some point Zoo need to
be back in there in the fourth quarter

803
01:00:45.400 --> 01:00:49.519
for a significant minutes, not just
hanging out at the free throw line for

804
01:00:49.599 --> 01:00:52.440
a rebound late, but to actually
play, and it was the right move

805
01:00:52.480 --> 01:00:54.239
not to go back to him.
Daniel Tice was good. They brought out

806
01:00:54.440 --> 01:01:00.800
all the versatility defensively and it worked. Yeah, some of the zoo Bot

807
01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:04.280
stuff is puzzling too, especially because
he had like two thirds of the Clippers

808
01:01:04.320 --> 01:01:07.840
points, albeit they had only scored
six early, but it is one of

809
01:01:07.840 --> 01:01:10.280
those things that they can depend on. He has been much more efficient around

810
01:01:10.280 --> 01:01:15.000
the rim, and he's been playing
his best stretch of basketball and some of

811
01:01:15.039 --> 01:01:16.760
these games. Obviously this one did
turn out in a win, but when

812
01:01:16.800 --> 01:01:21.079
he's having games as good as some
of these double doubles that we've seen to

813
01:01:21.159 --> 01:01:25.079
this stretch, it is absolutely inexcusable
for the Clippers to be losing those games.

814
01:01:25.119 --> 01:01:28.480
I have to be honest, if
there's a guy who's I mean,

815
01:01:28.719 --> 01:01:32.159
like, I don't know, the
fifth most important players, fourth or fifth

816
01:01:32.159 --> 01:01:36.639
most important player on your team is
having knights like that, everybody else needs

817
01:01:36.679 --> 01:01:38.840
to step up around that and be
closing up with games. So hopefully we

818
01:01:38.880 --> 01:01:42.400
can see that continue. I mean, luckily, they're gonna get a bunch

819
01:01:42.440 --> 01:01:46.239
of days rest and hopefully that gives
them some intensity when they face dend for

820
01:01:46.320 --> 01:01:51.199
next and hey, they're gonna need
big Zoo for big minutes, likely more

821
01:01:51.239 --> 01:01:54.960
than the twenty three he played tonight
against Jokich, where he has had as

822
01:01:55.039 --> 01:02:00.239
much success maybe as you can have
at times as a defender. That's the

823
01:02:00.320 --> 01:02:02.599
joker. I mean, the last
time out or the time before in Denver,

824
01:02:04.280 --> 01:02:06.960
I thought for sure he was going
to get the call late to play

825
01:02:07.000 --> 01:02:09.000
in that ball game. They never
went back to him. They were trailing

826
01:02:09.079 --> 01:02:14.239
late. Sean and Inglewood called after
that one heard from him earlier talking about

827
01:02:14.280 --> 01:02:15.320
you got to play with more size, and I agreed with him. In

828
01:02:15.320 --> 01:02:19.159
that game. That was one where
I thought Zoo earned those minutes late to

829
01:02:19.159 --> 01:02:22.320
go up against Jokich, And just
overall in his career, his performances against

830
01:02:22.360 --> 01:02:25.639
him have been pretty good, so
interested to see how that develops. On

831
01:02:25.719 --> 01:02:30.159
Wednesday, Clippers do have some time
off, and I thought Kawhi Leonard early

832
01:02:30.199 --> 01:02:34.920
on looked a little bit tired,
but man, he had legs late for

833
01:02:35.079 --> 01:02:38.920
a couple of big jumpers and then
that layup on a great ato by coach

834
01:02:39.000 --> 01:02:43.119
lou to put them in a position
where they could have the two for one

835
01:02:43.159 --> 01:02:46.159
where Paul George would eventually knock down
that three. But Kawhi made some big

836
01:02:46.199 --> 01:02:51.280
plays in the fourth quarter. Oh
yeah, absolutely, And I mean he

837
01:02:51.320 --> 01:02:53.719
and Paul George both you know,
not only got into their twenty, which

838
01:02:53.800 --> 01:02:59.320
is kind of expected scoring wise,
but Kawhi was seven assists and Paul George

839
01:02:59.400 --> 01:03:02.039
was six. They were doing everything
to sort of elevate around them, which

840
01:03:02.079 --> 01:03:06.840
is especially important when there isn't off
night, when those guys aren't at their

841
01:03:06.840 --> 01:03:10.000
most efficient still being able to I
mean, they're still going to demand respect

842
01:03:10.039 --> 01:03:15.760
from a defense regardless of what their
current efficiency is on that night, So

843
01:03:15.800 --> 01:03:19.480
then taking advantage of that is going
to be key. And I thought I

844
01:03:19.480 --> 01:03:22.119
thought there were I thought there were
spots. Honestly, even in the first

845
01:03:22.199 --> 01:03:25.440
quarter, though the shots weren't falling
down where we saw some better ball movements,

846
01:03:25.599 --> 01:03:29.800
and it finally did translate in that
second half and we saw, you

847
01:03:29.800 --> 01:03:31.159
know, not only the three point
shooting take a step up, but we

848
01:03:31.239 --> 01:03:36.119
actually got some easy buckets around the
rim, some things where you know,

849
01:03:36.159 --> 01:03:38.719
we had space to operate and we
didn't have to grind something out in the

850
01:03:38.760 --> 01:03:43.280
half court set. And as good
as the Clippers can be in those scenarios,

851
01:03:43.639 --> 01:03:45.880
you just got to you got to
make things easier on yourself. Yeah,

852
01:03:46.199 --> 01:03:51.119
Like stop getting down twenty one,
Stop getting down twenty two. Because

853
01:03:51.119 --> 01:03:52.719
when they got it down twenty one
to the Pelicans a week ago, the

854
01:03:52.719 --> 01:03:55.760
comeback came up short. I thought
the same thing was going to happen after

855
01:03:55.800 --> 01:04:00.400
that clear path foul. I thought
the Clippers were in big trouble. But

856
01:04:00.440 --> 01:04:03.960
the guy who I thought was the
biggest catalyst for this turnaround was James Harden.

857
01:04:04.119 --> 01:04:06.800
In that third quarter, fifteen points, I want to say, he

858
01:04:06.960 --> 01:04:11.760
was four or four from the field, had four assists he might have had

859
01:04:11.880 --> 01:04:15.559
I haven't seen the numbers yet,
but generated twenty eight of their thirty seven

860
01:04:15.679 --> 01:04:21.360
points in that third quarter alone.
Harden was tremendous and he was playing like

861
01:04:21.440 --> 01:04:26.440
that spark plug, like that Russell
Westbrook type where he had all the energy

862
01:04:26.480 --> 01:04:30.000
out there for the team. Yeah. Absolutely, and correct me if I'm

863
01:04:30.039 --> 01:04:34.880
not wrong. But this wasn't this
Harden's first made field goal in this stretch

864
01:04:34.920 --> 01:04:41.320
with the Clippers in the fourth quarter? His first which one? I think

865
01:04:41.440 --> 01:04:45.719
this was his first made field goal
in the fourth Oh, I see what

866
01:04:45.760 --> 01:04:47.960
you're saying. I think you're right. I think you're right, at least

867
01:04:48.480 --> 01:04:51.400
from what outside the ark. Maybe. Yeah, No, there was something

868
01:04:51.440 --> 01:04:56.360
funky going on with James Harden in
fourth quarters and the lack of made field

869
01:04:56.400 --> 01:04:59.760
goals. I think you're right.
Well, yeah, I cook you wrong.

870
01:04:59.800 --> 01:05:01.519
Maybe he has need a street before, but it's it's been a rare

871
01:05:01.599 --> 01:05:05.800
situation and obviously he went at one
of one. It's not blowing your mind

872
01:05:05.840 --> 01:05:11.320
away, but just that extra threat
makes it easier on everybody else. Yeah,

873
01:05:11.360 --> 01:05:14.280
I think that ended up What was
that a layup in the fourth quarter?

874
01:05:14.360 --> 01:05:16.159
Do you get down the lane for
that one? All I know is

875
01:05:16.400 --> 01:05:20.039
he was at the forefront of this
Clippers twenty two point comeback and it was

876
01:05:20.119 --> 01:05:26.360
glorious to see them come together and
fight like that and maybe their darkest hour

877
01:05:26.440 --> 01:05:29.559
early on in this season, they
had to have it. They got it.

878
01:05:29.679 --> 01:05:32.119
We'll see what legs it has moving
forward. But speaking of legs,

879
01:05:32.480 --> 01:05:35.559
they should be fresh for Wednesday since
they got a few days off, a

880
01:05:35.559 --> 01:05:39.360
little reprieve here, which is rare
for the Clippers. They got to take

881
01:05:39.360 --> 01:05:44.199
advantage of it. Will We will
have a C and D podcast coming up

882
01:05:44.239 --> 01:05:46.559
on the YouTube with you and Chuck
Mockler soon. Thanks for doing this on

883
01:05:46.559 --> 01:05:50.719
clipper Stock tonight, my friend.
Absolutely, Let's go clip. Let's go

884
01:05:50.760 --> 01:05:55.440
clips. Oh, speaking of Jose
and Southgate, last caller the night,

885
01:05:55.519 --> 01:05:59.400
Jose, what's up here on Clipper
Stock without Amazon? What's up about him?

886
01:05:59.480 --> 01:06:03.079
Real quick? I was just having
to catch the telecast from the opposition.

887
01:06:03.320 --> 01:06:06.960
So after that, after we scored
out of the time out, they

888
01:06:08.039 --> 01:06:12.880
kept on the camera on the Warriors
and Draymond Green went to the hudd of

889
01:06:12.960 --> 01:06:16.800
very adamant about something and Stephan Curry
everybody was looking at him and they all

890
01:06:16.840 --> 01:06:21.280
said, okay, so think that's
when they come out. And last second

891
01:06:21.320 --> 01:06:26.440
we take James Harden out and put
Russell Westbrook in and you can see them

892
01:06:26.440 --> 01:06:29.679
look confuge, even see Steph Curry
looking around like where's name's Harden? And

893
01:06:29.760 --> 01:06:31.679
Draymond Green just says, just go
ahead and run the play, and then

894
01:06:31.880 --> 01:06:35.599
who gets the rebound from the mid
shot? Russell Westbrook come back Paul George

895
01:06:35.599 --> 01:06:43.800
with the three. Here we go
one times. Oh, Clippers are always

896
01:06:43.800 --> 01:06:46.280
family friendly. I love to hear
that from Jose and the little one there.

897
01:06:46.760 --> 01:06:49.760
Although PG. Thirteen is the guy
that hit the shot, so maybe

898
01:06:49.800 --> 01:06:53.960
I shouldn't be able to say that. Speaking of let's hear from Paul George

899
01:06:54.159 --> 01:07:00.320
postgame after he was on with my
friend Patrick O'Neill on Bally's See. That

900
01:07:00.440 --> 01:07:04.119
is an incredible three that you hit. What a comeback. You guys were

901
01:07:04.119 --> 01:07:08.199
down twenty two, but when that
ball left your hands, did you know

902
01:07:08.239 --> 01:07:10.519
what was good? It felt good. It felt good. As soon as

903
01:07:10.559 --> 01:07:13.920
I released it, I got a
good look out the basket. Thank god

904
01:07:13.920 --> 01:07:16.599
it went in. As far as
this comeback down twenty two, you guys

905
01:07:16.599 --> 01:07:19.599
hadn't had a comeback down at all, the end or a fourth quarter.

906
01:07:19.679 --> 01:07:24.679
What does this tell you about your
team? This is a great comeback,

907
01:07:24.840 --> 01:07:29.039
especially against this team, especially when
you go down big on this team.

908
01:07:29.079 --> 01:07:31.280
I mean, they can put points
stuff so quick. The fact we was

909
01:07:31.320 --> 01:07:34.320
able to come back just show us
a lot. You know, this group

910
01:07:34.400 --> 01:07:38.480
is ready to fight and you know, play all the way until the end.

911
01:07:38.719 --> 01:07:42.039
Besides that shot you hit, what
else in the fourth quarter was huge

912
01:07:42.400 --> 01:07:45.199
allowing you guys to win this one
over the Warriors. I just thought we

913
01:07:45.199 --> 01:07:50.079
we introduced our defense. Finally,
we pressed it up. We got physical

914
01:07:51.199 --> 01:07:56.280
and we were able to get stops, and those stops turned into transition plays

915
01:07:57.119 --> 01:07:59.480
where I thought, you know,
against this team, you can't go against

916
01:07:59.480 --> 01:08:01.559
a load of defense. We're ready
to score fast and transition. I thought

917
01:08:01.599 --> 01:08:04.679
that was the game. Tremendous game, great shot, congratulations, appreciate it,

918
01:08:04.760 --> 01:08:09.039
ugg all right, PG right there, Brian, that was awesome.

919
01:08:09.719 --> 01:08:12.599
Yeah, filling in for Brian's seaman. Tough shoes to fill, but it's

920
01:08:12.599 --> 01:08:15.399
thrown back to me instead. This. I love you, Brian. Patrick

921
01:08:15.439 --> 01:08:19.159
O'Neill there with Paul George post game
after he knocked down the game winner,

922
01:08:19.199 --> 01:08:24.640
saying, this team is ready to
fight. We saw that in the second

923
01:08:24.680 --> 01:08:28.239
half. We're gonna have to see
it for forty eight minutes. On Wednesday

924
01:08:28.439 --> 01:08:31.079
against the Denver Nuggets. Here was
that Kawhi Leonard quote I've been talking about

925
01:08:31.079 --> 01:08:35.439
and referencing throughout this Clippers post game. This is what has to happen.

926
01:08:35.479 --> 01:08:39.479
The light bulb has to go on
for this team. It's just on the

927
01:08:39.520 --> 01:08:42.079
players, you know what I mean. And you can only get coached so

928
01:08:42.239 --> 01:08:46.800
much until you that light switches in
your head or it never does, and

929
01:08:46.840 --> 01:08:50.520
then you see the teams fail.
So we got to figure out who we

930
01:08:50.560 --> 01:08:55.000
want to be. It's it's just
on the players. I mean, you

931
01:08:55.039 --> 01:09:00.520
can only get coached so much until
you that light switches in your head or

932
01:09:00.039 --> 01:09:03.000
it never does, and then you
see the teams fail. Can they put

933
01:09:03.000 --> 01:09:06.319
that like on repeat, like we
just heard it in the locker room for

934
01:09:06.359 --> 01:09:10.000
this team. That might help,
thanks, because it is on the players

935
01:09:10.000 --> 01:09:13.039
at this point. You can see
it. In the second half of this

936
01:09:13.079 --> 01:09:16.319
one. You outscore the Warriors by
twenty after losing the first half by nineteen

937
01:09:17.520 --> 01:09:23.319
tailor two halves. All right,
Sean, I'll give you some love here.

938
01:09:23.359 --> 01:09:26.079
You were technically right. Zubos was
at the free throw line. He

939
01:09:26.159 --> 01:09:28.720
also didn't play a possession in the
fourth court. That's all I did.

940
01:09:30.760 --> 01:09:36.920
So loved DeShawn and Inglewood, loved
eclibrination. Kate Newton, you got a

941
01:09:38.000 --> 01:09:43.199
quick question for me postgame? Ky
Newton's casual corn. I don't have one

942
01:09:43.199 --> 01:09:46.600
that would be quick, but you
had to say that, what's your favorite

943
01:09:46.680 --> 01:09:54.960
sound that you hear on the court
Nylon Carlo and Menez saying that for the

944
01:09:55.079 --> 01:09:58.319
Paul George game winner. Katie,
you got the skills to play that as

945
01:09:58.359 --> 01:10:00.279
we're going out here, because I
might want to hear one time. Clippers

946
01:10:00.279 --> 01:10:08.399
win one thirteen to one twelve over
the Warriors. They run it back against

947
01:10:08.439 --> 01:10:12.880
the Denver Nuggets. The're nemesis coming
up next Wednesday. They got some time

948
01:10:12.920 --> 01:10:15.399
off. Tiptime is at seven pregame
at six. Before we get out of

949
01:10:15.439 --> 01:10:18.239
here, I do want to thank
no Ego, Ralph Lawler, Bryan Steaman,

950
01:10:18.319 --> 01:10:20.640
Carlo Jimenez. Who you're gonna hear
in a second, the callers,

951
01:10:20.680 --> 01:10:25.319
the listeners, Big Brothers, Jake
Warner, Katie Newton, Carlo's take it

952
01:10:25.319 --> 01:10:30.239
away. Clippers down by two,
George with ten four wings, step back

953
01:10:30.319 --> 01:10:35.680
three name one. Clippers lead for
the first time today with nine seconds left,

954
01:10:35.960 --> 01:10:45.720
one thirteen, one twelve timeout.
Steve per Ma WHI was doing his

955
01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:49.279
thing. All they want to do
is win, LA win. I thought

956
01:10:49.279 --> 01:10:55.840
they gave everything they had. This
has been Clippers Talk. The official postgame

957
01:10:55.920 --> 01:11:00.760
reaction of the LA Clippers. God
bless Paul George, Are you to change?
