Time for a postgame. Look, it's your La Clippers. This is Clippers
Locker Room, brought to you by Cedars Sinai, the official health partner of
the La Clippers, and by Patschonga, official travel casino of the LA Clippers.
Breaking down today's action with the pre and post game voice. If you're
LA Clippers, They're locking in every game, every night. Adam Osland the
Clippers make it seven straight twelve wins out of their last fifteen ball games as
they take down the Knicks tonight at Crypto dot com. Areno. One forty
four to one twenty two. Welcome in your postgame show. I'm Adam Oslin
coming up. We got second half highlights. We'll have Clippers stock for you
on an five seventy LA Sports if you want to get on early eight six
six ninety eighty seven two five seventy eight six six nine eighty seven two five
seventy. You know they say New York is the city that never sleeps,
but the Clippers put them to bed midway through that fourth quarter there. Carlow
and the young guys even got some run, but it started with the starters
and Kawhi and the level of domination he has been at over the last couple
of weeks. Not just great for him, great for anyone. He is
doing historic stuff right now. He has been so good at him sixteen shots
to get to thirty six points. That is absurd. That is absurd.
The claw has been so good. He's playing at another level right now.
Everything he does is the right play. Every shoot he shoots, every shot
he shoots is the right shot, Every pass is the perfect pass. I
mean, he just makes the perfect play every single time and does it on
the defensive end. For this Clippers team, He's really sending the tone for
There's a lot of talk right about needing to take the regular season a little
more seriously is something that was talked about around this Clippers team. Kawhi is
taking every game so seriously, and his teammates are following in order and doing
exactly what he's doing on every play. It feels it's not just games but
possessions. Right now, everything by this Clippers team just seems to be at
an all time level. They are completely locked in and focused on offense,
on defense. Shots are falling from the outside, they go sixteen to thirty
three from distance, end up shooting fifty seven percent from the floors. Kawhi
was at seventy five percent by himself, but the James Hardened effect in twenty
eight minutes, ten points but twelve assists to one turnover, tell me it's
not working. I mean, what's unbelievable, Adam. Is this a guy
who could easily walk in here tonight and score thirty points and have fifteen assists.
But that's not what they needed. They needed him to be a distributor
tonight with PG back on the floor, and that's what he delivered with those
twelve assists. Back to back double doubles for the first time this season for
James Harden and the minutes are what I love looking at this box score thirty
for Kawhi, thirty one for PG, twenty eight for James. Guys didn't
put heavy minutes on their legs, and with a grueling road trip coming up,
they're gonna need it in the future. Paul George, you mentioned him
there, eleven of eighteen from the field after getting off to a slow start,
but ends up with nineteen points in the second half. And while we
have a moment before we extol the virtues of Paul George, even further,
Let's pause ten seconds for station identification. Here on the Los Angeles Clippers Audio
network, this is LA Clippers Basketball AM five to seventy KLAC Los Angeles,
ninety eight seven KYSRHD two Los Angeles and iHeartRadio station. It wasn't just the
scoring for me, Carlo, but the activity level, the athleticism from PG
thirteen, losing his defenders on multiple tough jumpers. He looks more than healthy
that hip injury. It took him one game that he was out and he
looks back back. If you know what I mean, And if there's a
play you want to go watch to see what we're all talking about. Russell
Westbrook leading the break, leave it off, the Leonard off of one leg,
jam home, a little elevation sensation from the claw through the sky.
This is a Kawhi Leonard who's playing at a All NBA an MVP like level.
I don't think there's any conversation about that. He is one of the
best in the league right now and continues to motor this offense to win after
win after win, and Paul George joined him tonight with the way he played,
he fit in after a slow start in that first half was fantastic and
kept Kawhi Leonard on the bench in that fourth quarter. Yeah, he was
excellent. A lot of his work in the third quarter continued to help out
that second group. Who's a plus twenty six tonight. Only if eachsa zubatch
was a better plus minus PG thirteen eighteen shots to get the twenty five points
going with seven assists for Paul George only two turnovers. Clippers were excellent at
taking care of the bass bottom six turnovers tonight, and now they embark on
a top off road trip coming up, starting on Monday in Indiana against the
Pacers. They'll be in Indiana, then in Dallas against the Mavericks, and
then OKC before they return home before Christmas on December twenty third to face the
Boston Celtics. Here, big one coming up on Monday, and you talked
about it during the broadcast. I mean we could say it already, Daniel
Tice revenge game coming up against the Indiana Pacers. I cannot wait. He's
gonna have a little extra juices going. You know, PG is gonna get
up for that game. The Clippers are on their way, They've they've road
the sigh seas. The wind is on their backs. But now you're heading
to a little bit of a test, a little storm on the road.
You've beaten the Warriors, the Nuggets, the Jazz, the Blazers, the
Kings, the Warriors, the Knicks. Those are a lot of good teams
in that mix. Now can you do it away from home? We're about
to find out. They got their stoic captain in Kawhi Leonard head coach Lou
Leadingham. Glippers win tonight a season high one hundred and forty four points.

it seven straight twelve of their last fifteen. You're listening to your Clippers postgame

Josh Primo in his first action as a Clipper out there on the floor,

Osley. The Clippers are hotter than a slice of New York pizza and one
nineteen Eastern time as they have won seventh straight and beat up on the Knicks,
winning one forty four to one twenty two. Here at Crypto dot com
arena, welcome into Clippers Talk. I'm out of Mosland Clippers winners of twelve
with their last fifteen since the new starting lineup. Who told you they needed
to do that? I don't know. A guy eight six six nine eight
seven two five seventy eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy is the
phone number coming up here on Clipperstock. We'll have Will Updike on from Clips
and Dip. You'll hear from the head coach and Kawhi Leonard post game.
Nobody's hotter than him right now in the NBA. Nobody's playing better than Kawhi,
and Kawhi hasn't looked this good. What did I tell you last show?
Since he tore his acl since twenty twenty one in Game four in the
second round against the Utah jazz I tried to tell you Kawhi Leonard he's back.
This is him, the burst, the explosion, the elite two way
superstar, the guy who was being called the best player in the game after
he won with Toronto in twenty nineteen in the NBA Finals over Golden State.
That guy is back and then some. The guy who was compared to Shack
with the numbers he put up in a first round series against the Dallas Mavericks
in twenty twenty one where all his shots were from fourteen feet out Shacks from
four in the two thousand finals, and only Kawhi Leonard was shooting over sixty
percent in a series like Shaq was. That's how good he's been. Put
him in the MVP conversation. Talked about that the other day. He's played
all twenty five games so far this season. The Clippers are now fifteen to
ten. They have dug out of losing six in a row and now they've
won seven. This is one of the most impressive stretches of Clippers basketball in
the two to one to three era. They're not just winning, they're dominating,
and they're doing it over great competition. That's what's so impressive the Knicks
tonight, the Warriors, the last two, the Denver Nuggets, a team
they couldn't beat at beating the mate straight, the Kings twice. This Clippers
team, being led by Kawhi, is looking like a contender again. And
it's no coincidence that it's happened since they brought in James Harden, who a
lot of people were either indecisive about are unsure of. All this is four
team last three years. Well, guess what, the fit's perfect, Just
like many of us that it would be. He and I said this from
day one will unlock the best version of two to one three. And wouldn't
you know, Kawhi Leonard looks better than ever. Thirty six points on sixteen
shots tonight, five of six from the outside. But the defense to on
Julius Randall, He's doing it all to be this efficient while giving that effort
and that level of elite defense on the other end is absurd. You're watching
something that has happened very few times in the National Basketball Association right now.
In fact, I'm trying to put this in perspective to see how historic this
run is from Kawhi shooting this well sixty three percent from the field, sixty
percent from the outside, ninety percent from the free throw line in his last
nine games. He's him. He's still that number one option that finals MVP.
He can get them to the Promised Land with a little luck, a
little good health. And as they continue to build up this chemistry with this
new Clippers team, they are scary. Scary hours are here. They're back
at Crypto and the opposition is starting to feel it. Paul George was back
tonight. He had twenty five nineteen of his twenty five in the second half,
tough buckets in the fourth quarter to put the Knicks away, where the
Clippers eventually rolled out Brandon Boston for the first time this season, Josh Primo
for the first time as a Clipper. Kobe Brown, who looks to be
out of the rotation now as a mere Coffee's just been too darned good.
He ended up playing sixteen minutes tonight, coming off starting and helping them get
that victory over the Golden State Warriors on Thursday. Xavier Moon was out there
late. This Clippers team just comes at you in waves. They helped extend
the lead. Clippers led by as many as thirty two. Terrence Man knocked
down a couple of three pointers tonight, turn one down and then the next
possession took it on the right wing. Love seeing that there was a timeout
in between, and it looked like he made the adjustment. Avitza zubats thirteen
and eleven, basically what he's been averaging over the last fifteen games since they
went to the new starting lineup. But James Harden a system, thus system,
whatever you want to say. He's a connector. He's doing whatever is
asked and whatever is needed. Paul George is out cool. I'll get twenty
eight fifteen, seven boards, four blocks, a stat line that's only been
put up once by Lebron James in twenty ten, all while getting the twenty
five thousand career points. Did that Thursday tonight twelve assists, just two of
six shooting. He took six shots. Do you understand the level of sacrifice
here? This guy used to average twenty five shot attempts with Houston. Literally
that sounds like a gross exaggeration or some extreme point. No, he literally
did this. Clippers team is rolling, the defense is leading to offense.
Clippers had twenty fast break points and all the pieces are fitting give coach lou
all the love deserves it. He said himself, this'll be his toughest coaching
job. You got four stars, guys who have won MVPs to get them
all to buy in, and Russ coming off the bench and sacrificing like this.
He had a put back on a missing traffic to start. He saved
a ball from going out of bounds to PG for a layup at the end
of the third, and then he had a couple of bad takes I didn't
like in the third quarter, but then he went right to the rim,
bodied Brunson into the third, and then once more in the fourth. Then
a steal guy to PG and Transition who looked like he was losing the basketball
and somehow got it in on the layup. Anyways, a great feed to
Tice who missed the gimme, and then Russ taffed it in. He's becoming
that hard and hustle, energy spark plug guy off the bench, a sixth
man. He's adjusting his game. He and James Harden, both of them
playing completely different than they have throughout their entire careers. They're sacrificing. They
see the goal they want to win. A championship as Clippers back in so
Cow. This is special. It's one thing to talk about it buying in
sacrificing, it's another through your actions. Russell Westbrook played just fifteen minutes.
Did he look dis Gruntold's sideline cheering on his guys. No, and this
role suits him. He comes off the bench, shot out of a cannon.
Love the way he's playing, Love the way Daniel Tyson is playing.
He was matching Hartenstein. That was a great Mortal Kombat like mirror match.
Those two have similar skills. They were battling, and this was a game
that almost had some playoff like vibes. There was an edge and attitude out
there. After Big Zoo in the first quarter dunked on Jericho Sims. The
walls of Jericho came falling down. It looked like it got testy. Julius
Randall got into it with Terrence Man, got a tech Kawhi. Leonard would
hit the free throw and then go right back at Julius Randall the very next
possession for an and one. Josh Hart got ejected. In the first half.
You got two tea's like nothing. This was old school blood in the
garden like attitude from the Knicks. I like it. It raised the level
of play I think from the Clippers. They met them emotionally out there.
The competitive juices were flowing. And this Clippers team, it's twelve and three
in their last fifteen games with the new starting lineup, and Kawhi Leonard looks
like the best player in the NBA right now, best player of December so
far. Christmas came early, I guess. I hope he keeps it going.
As long as he's moving like this, that's all that matters. That's
everything, that's what gives them a chance to win the championship. Kauhi is
your number one option. Everybody else falls in line, and this guy looks
as laser focused as I have ever seen him. They're not taking games off,
they're not taking possessions off. They're competing every single possession on the court,
and it shows when you win one forty four to one twenty two over
the Knicks. Quick time out. We'll get to your phone calls next eight
sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy eight six six nine eight seven two
five seventy. Clippers have won seven in a row. They just had a
three and four swept that here at home and then beat the Knicks on a
Saturday night. This is some of the best ball in the two and three
era. We have seen Clipper Nation enjoy it. Now they gotta take it
out on the road. Three tough ones coming up next week. More on
that here on Clipper Stock on a five seventy LA Sports. LA Clippers basketball
is on the two to one three era continues. You're listening to the La
Clippers on the LA Clippers audio network. You know, it was just about
three weeks ago. People were telling me, oh, Kawhi is washed,
he doesn't look right. So I went to the tap. I went and
checked on his lift. I went back to twenty seventeen Game one Western Conference
Finals, Spurs are taking on the Golden State Warriors, the Zazap Peculia game.
Kawhi was going off Zaza with the cheap shot rolled his ankle. But
before that, I put a picture of the lift on his jumper, and
I did a side by side against Kawhi with the Lakers this season when he
had thirty eight in that game that went to overtime. The lift looks the
same. He was just missing shots. How many times you can get fooled
by Kawhi Leonards slowly easing into the season, and then he hits the runway
and just takes off jumbo jet even though he looks as spelt as ever.
Unbelievable performance last nine games from Kawhi Tonight, thirty six on sixteen shots,
Clippers win one forty four to one twenty two over the Knicks. Here at
Crypto dot Com arena, a lot of calls to get to bow in La.
You're on Clippers stick with out of Maaza. What's up? Bo Bo
Bo knows Kawhi is good? If not Bo Demetrius in Manhattan Beach. You
doing got you to hear me? Yeah, we really excited. I think
me and you had the conversation on that Denver game when we when they had
that lopsided loss with Denver. But I'm telling you, and I've been telling
everybody, all my sports guys, everybody been throwing dots at the Clipper.
But I want to put it out here today on National on the National Radio,
that Kawhi Leonard is back to his Toronto game plan and even much higher
on another level. I mean, we get what he's doing. I mean,
if he's averaged thirty. When he averaged thirty, the Clippers are forty
three and eleven, the best in the game. And that's and that's over
Boston with Tatum and Jason Jalen Brown. That's over everyone. And so I'm
just explaining everybody right now, and I'm just gonna say this, Kawhi Leonard
should be one of the top front If he continued to play like this,
not only would he win the MVP, but let's start talking about something that
hasn't been done since Michael Jordan. It's been in the game, and that's
the defensive player of the war. He has played elite defense. They calling
on him on a variety of different guards. He's guarding guards, forward,
senate, you name it. He's fresh, he's ready to go, and
he's playing with a serious chip on his shoulder. And so to all the
media out there, to all the sports media that said this guy is garbage
and this and that, you getting a chance to see this guy at a
serious, elite playing talent right now. I'm very excited about the Clippers.
I know I'm not going to go on and limb. I know they're going
on the road. I will pick our team on the road going against Indiana,
and Indiana has been playing up and down, but again it's still dangerous
at home. And then you got OKC who actually beat dinvererenth Night came back
and then we got a tough Dallas team. But I'll tell you this,
R three with hardin A Kawhi, Leonard, Paul, George Zubat if Terence's
man starting five, hyl have figured it out. I like this team.
Our only problem has been availability. When they are available, look out.
I like them in the West. I don't care who's in the West or
in the East. If this team played the way they've been playing and they're
available at the end, I like the Clippers to pick up the ring in
the new arena this upcoming season. I love it. I love the energy.
Demetrius great phone call, and I'm with you. This Clippers team is
scary the way they're playing. With this new starting five, they've been at
a different level. Credit coach Lou he got Russell Westbrook to buy in coming
off the bench. He's playing well. James Harden has been a perfect fit
once you got him and Russ away from each other in the starting lineup.
Who are a fucking unbelievable run by the Clippers. Right now, they got
to keep it going. It's gonna be a tough three game road trip.
Uh bow in La. I think we got you now, okay man.
So last time I called you it was funny because it was it was out
to the Denver game. I just left the game this game as well,
and it was obviously we all know, the worst game and basically of the
season, maybe last couple of seasons. Yeah, And and I was waiting
and went and talk and I'm like, oh my god, it was depressing.
I'm done. This is bullshit, Like you know it was. It
was just a lot of going on, a lot of emotions and now calling
you back right seven games in a row, You're like, whoa, this
is happening. And I just wanted to bring some point off, like you
said, being in the arena, just like the chemistry going at a good
parents man dabbing each other. Everybody was like super stoke, super excited.
It was amazing to see leaving. The last game I went to was a
Denver game, and this is the second game like night, and so I
can tell you're excited. I appreciate the phone call. Bo. There's a
lot to be excited about with this team. But this new starting lineup with
fourteen games together, because remember Paul George wasn't there Thursday night, They're shooting
fifty three percent from the floor and forty three percent from the outside with James
Harden next to Terrence Man with two, one three in a beats to Zubots.
They have been extraordinary and Terrence Man is just coming around offensively. I'm
telling you this guy who battled for a board in the second half and then
put it back in. When he starts knocking down three, it's like he's
capable of and tonight was a good sign two or four from the outside.
It's just gonna make him even better. And they haven't even spammed the starting
lineup two more much or overwork guys or played them too much. But it's
there when they need it. And then, oh you need more offense,
Norram pollin for Terrence Man. With the other four, it's been beautiful.
Let's go Lenny and Inglewood. Lenny, you're on a gloper. So with
that, I'm also what's up? What's up? Adam? Now just bear
with me for a minute, man, because I'm gonna say some things But
that's a great point Demetris made about Kawhi doing what Jordan did when he won
the defensive because that hasn't been done since Jordan. We won the m v
P and BEFO. He's right, He's right. This dude is has like
you said, he's shutting down pick and rolls. He's holding Steph Curry,
he's holding the kid from Denver out standing. He's doing Jeordian type stuff.
Well let me say this, man. Last year, I remember I was
on you when I said that they weren't playing with a chip and they and
you were like, we got time, we got time. And guess what
they're playing with a chip this year. And I said another thing. I
said, nobody's scared of us. But this this team and the dude,
the Vincenzo after he hit his four to three, he wasn't even celebrated.
They were scared, man, because guess what they know. It's not enough.
It's not enough because they're older team and opposing coaches are telling their team
we got to get them early. We got to get them early, because
that was always the knock against the starting out is that we would get down
early. But now we're not getting down early. We're coming out ready and
now we get that. You know, when you work out, you get
it takes you like twelve fifty to get that lather going. That's what we
need. We need twelve minutes to get that lather going. And when we
get that ladder going, we're good. The muscles are relaxed, and we're
good. And Harden, I mean, at this point, man, he's
got a home. And if if Clipper Nations needs to put together a go
fund Me account to get some of his his favorite ladies from them clubs in
Houston, Steve Bomini's arranged that because he needs we need to give all the
creature comforts that he needs in La because he's got a home. Man,
you cannot be yeah, right, but check it out. You cannot be
a West Coast team and not have a point guard who can who can create
separation and nail that three in the fourth quarter. It just ain't happened,
Captain, it just ain't gonna happen. And Harden, there was a point
in the third quarter when when Nick thought they were wood us, and they
were, and then and then they started knocking down them threes. They started
knocking them down It's amazing to me how many people devalued shooting at the point
guard position. And I'm not trying to make it a Russ versus hardened thing.
It's working. But the reason, yes, if I don't know how
you couldn't see that, Hay, it hurts your floor spacing. When you
have a non shooter out there, you already have one of the Viasa zoobots
with the starters, when you have two with Russell Westbrook, that just makes
things so much more difficult for Kawhi and Paul George. And now we're seeing
the floor being open and Kawhi just getting to his spots. They're playing less
iso ball with James Harden. Yes, yes, And like I said,
man, now's his other thing. I'm still out here. People start their
morning, they go to Starbucks. Why Adam to get coffee? Coffee needs
to be a starter. I'm telling you, well, no, no,
I'm not taking anyone out of the starting lineup. You don't need to be
a starter. He just needs to play. Hear me out. This dude
is six seven, He can hit. He can hit the like I like.
Man, don't get me wrong, Man is the man is? You
know? Keep the kid in the picture. We get it. He keeps
what I'm telling you once again, on a on a West Coast contending team,
you we need. Man's got to get his points up. We need
twelve to thirteen points in a two guys spot. He's got to get this
point they got. Well, here's the thing, Lenny, you have him.
He's next to Kawhi, Paul George, and James Harden. How much
does he really need to worry about scoring? What he does is guard the
other team's best player early on until you sit Kawhi on him late in the
fourth quarter. So he's not gassed. Because Terrence Man has taking up that
assignment. They got three elite scorers in the starting lineup. I mean,
James Harden's taking six shots and they're winning by twenty two. I'm not worried
about Terrence Man. I what he's doing defensively and all the other other little
things he does. I think he's perfect for this starting lineup because anybody else
might demand more shots, Terrence Man doesn't. He embodies that selflessness too.
That's true. That's true. Well, I just hope that they can get
it to the point where Tyler was coaching that all Star Team. Man,
he deserves it and the team deserves it. I hope that they can just
I'm not scared of nobody on this, on this, on this, on
this street game thing. I think that the only thing is that Dallas teams
that Dallas. We have a thing that goes back with Dallas. But that
was the old, the old squad. I think I think, you know,
if we can get two out of three, I think we're good.
But if we can just get to the half the All Star Game and get
Tyler with a chance to coach the All Star squad, I think that would
just be beautiful. Man. Look I'm I'm with it, Lenny. I'm
with it, and I appreciate the phone call. They got much bigger goals
on that much bigger. The position they're in is it's about winning a chip,
and they are playing with a chip on their shoulder right now. It
looks like when Kawhi and Paul George weren't playing last season, they were hurt,
they were out, and then they make them the poster board or poster
boys of this new player participation policy, guys who have been legitimately hurt.
Kawhi's coming back off a tour ad acl last year, Paul George numerous injuries.
If they could have played, they would have played. Now they're healthy.
That's the difference. Talked about with Carlo Jimenez earlier. But when I
brought up to him that this is one of the best runs that the Clippers
have been on the two win three era, he wisely pointed out, well,
yeah, we've gotten twenty four of the first twenty five games with Kawhi
and Paul George playing next to one another. It just hasn't happened, not
enough. They've been elite when they've been out there, they just haven't been
out there together enough. All right, quick time out, will come back.
More phone calls Kawhi Leonder post game, big brother Jake Warners in the
house. You know what's coming haight six six ninet eighty seven two five seventy
eight sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy Stay up for this one,
Clipper Nations. The lights are going off here at Crypto dot Com Arena.
They shot the lights out. They put up one hundred and forty four points.
I mean, I know, New York's the city that never sleeps,
but Saturday night in La we can keep it popping too. Clippers make it
seven straight twelve of fifteen, and you're listening to clipperstock. You're already MPI
seventy LA sports every Clipper game all season long. They didn't stop playing hard.
You're listening to the LA Clippers Audio Network streaming on the iheartradiolab. You
can find me at Crypto dot com. Mareno, you'll find the Clippers moving
up the standings in the Western Conference right now. They just leaped a couple
of teams. There's sixth currently at fifteen and ten, four and a half
games back of the Minnesota Timberwolves currently in the number one spot. There's a
lot of room to maneuver, though. When you win seven in a row,
longest winning streak right now in the NBA, that'll happen. Clippers are
one twelve and fifteen after they win one forty four to one twenty two over
the New York Nicks. Welcome back in the Clipper sotock. I'm at a
Maslin Sean, Sean Inglewood, what's good, Sean? Hey? It was
good? My friends. Hey, damn Martin, that was good. Twenty
five out of twenty six games. We had our guys together. Remember when
they first came together and everybody just said automatically, the championship will be there,
and we had nothing, but you know, injuries and injuries. And
now that they're together, they're looking really good. It took a while for
them to get to this point, but they do look like they can contend
for the championship. I'm really happy about that, and I'm really happy about
the veracity that they started with. They came out to kill the Knick,
not to play the Knicks. They were slammed, dunking on them, they
had a lot of injury, imagy, and they had just a lot of
fighting them in the beginning. I know you saw that, and it's just
it was just really nice to see because there was sometimes when they looked like
they played last year to the level of the competition, and today they just
came out to just really just give them a licking. And I hope it
continues. And I'm looking forward to the next four games, especially against Boston,
because that's going to really be a proving ground, and I think they
can play with anybody this year now, and just to think, what's the
difference, why can't they play with they win this year because they Finally they
got their continuity, and you still have you know, you're still waiting them
plumberingly come back. It was good to see Brandon Boston come back. Sir,
you say something good about James Harden or what I said? Something good
about the whole team. And I already told you I'm okay with Harden being
here. Now it took a while. Oh, here's a good thing.
Here's a good thing. Okay, he's not holding the ball and dribbling the
ball too much, Sean, Who told you that was gonna happen? Who
told you that? You guys haven't been watching the last couple of seasons.
You haven't been watching him. This isn't Houston. He played next to Katie
and Kyrie, he played next to the MVP and Joe l Embiid. He's
been doing this. It's impressive to watch. I appreciate the phone call,
Sean. He did make some good points on the attitude. Early in the
first quarter that Kawhi Leonard dunk with the left hand in transition. I think
it was off a pass behind the back from Russell Westbrook and initiated first by
Daniel Tice poking out a rebound. Who I love on this team, and
I just didn't know where it was at. Physically, I liked him in
Boston, but that left handed dunk by Kawhi on the fast break trailing Russ
it reminded me of the donkey hat on Giannis in the Eastern Conference Finals in
twenty nineteen. It was just forceful, nasty, and of course he's dead
pan, walks back the other way and gets back on defense like nothing happened.
When the entire place got up and the ooze and the os from Clippers
fans and Knicks fans in the building after that one, that may have been
Kawhi Leonard reintroducing himself to everyone. Mike. He's been doing the last three
weeks of just hey, I'm still that guy. This is me, I'm
here. But what he's doing right now on both ends, I can't say
enough. Kawhi is spectacular and he's your number one option. And Paul George
was good tonight with this twenty five points coming back. Love seeing just some
of the shaken bake, tough buckets, tough one off the backboard on Barrett,
a high archer in the third quarter two, but when he went around
r J Barrett in the fourth quarter, I think it was. It was
definitely late third, early fourth for a three pointer. Just the handle that
he has the ball on a string, it's unbelievable. We'll take a quick
time out, we'll come back, we'll wrap things up. Clippers win one
forty four to one twenty two over the New York Knicks. I'm just saying,
let the apology be as loud as the disrespect was with James Harden.
That's the rule, right you If you were somebody that called in like Sean
saying you didn't want them, and now they won seven straight in twelve or
fifteen, I just I need a little bit more love for James and this
Clippers team. Right now, I met Amazin. You're listening to Clippers socke
here on the M five to seventy LA Sports LA Clippers Basketball Liza the two
one three era continues. You're listening to the LA Clippers on the LA Clippers
Audio Network. Clippers win one forty four to one twenty two over the Knicks.
Here at Crypto dot Com, Marena Kawhi Leonard had thirty six on sixteen
shots. Here he was postgame on Ballet Sports. Kawhi thirty six points tonight.
You've been hot all season long? How are you able to get the
job done on a defensive end? Tonight? We started off playing well defensively,
got out in transition, got some open looks, and you know that
I got to start it talking about defense. Coming into this game, you
knew it would be physical. Jalen Brunson had a hot night yesterday. How
were you guys able to contain? Just showing a crowd. He's a great
point guard, could get to a spot very well, and he's been shooting
the ball great all year, So just showing a presidence in the gaps when
he's driving in trying to contest his last home game for a little while.
What do you take from tonight with you on the road, Just our defense
got to start off on our defensive end first, and you know that's going
to help us on the road. Well. This Clipper's new starting lineup,
their defensive rating is one oh seven. That's real good to put that in
perspective for you. With the level of defense they've been playing the last fifteen
games. The best defensive rating in the league is one oh six by the
Minnesota Timberwolves. Clippers' new starting lineup at one seven, but Kawhi Leonard setting
the tone a significant one on the defensive end. Before we get out of
here, we got big Brother Jake Warner, Big Brother Jake Podcast, the
podcast work. He is the fake philosopher and I think he has some positive
moments for us. Always always here we go. Always remember, never reply
when you are angry, never make a promise when you're happy, and never
make a decision when you're sad. Is this about me and Sean? It
might be, just might be. Calm Downbud, I love Sean Inglewood.
Hey, look, you gotta come correct after the smack you talked about James
Harden. I'm sorry, but the run the Clippers are on and he is
one of the biggest reasons why they're winning games Right now. Can you see
the vision Clipper Nation starts with Kawhi Leonard. Let's hope hopefully it ends somewhere
in June Clippers win by twenty two over the Knicks. Before we get out
of here, I do want to thank the Clippers organization. Ralph Lawler,
Brian Seemen, no ego, Carlo Jimenez on the call, Katie Newton,
our producer back in Burbank, great job, Katie the head engineer, big
brother Jake Warner here at the crypt, the callers, the listeners, Sean
