00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:06.080
Time for a postgame. Look,
it's your LA Clippers. This is Clippers

2
00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:09.839
Locker Road, brought to you by
Cedars Sinai, the official health partner of

3
00:00:09.880 --> 00:00:14.960
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
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:26.280
LA Clippers, they're locking in every
game every night, Adam Osland, Well,

6
00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:32.320
the Boston Celtics would come into Crypto
dot Com arena and hit twenty five

7
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:36.520
three pointers on your Los Angeles Clippers
and they go on to win one forty

8
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:40.359
five till one oh eight. Welcome
in your postgame show. I'm at am

9
00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:44.920
Oslin coming up. No second half
highlights. We'll get to your postgame box

10
00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:48.679
score. We'll have callers on Clippers
Talk as well. Eight six six nine

11
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:53.320
eight seven two five seventy. But
first back to Crypto with your radio voice

12
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:58.960
of the Clippers. Well, Carlo, uh, what goes up must continue

13
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:03.560
to keep going up, as Boston
would outdo themselves and hit twenty five three

14
00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:07.439
pointers after a game where they made
twenty two in Sacramento a couple of days

15
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:10.760
ago, and over the last two
games. Now they are forty seven for

16
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:15.319
ninety five from three. That's forty
nine percent. I don't know if anyone's

17
00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:19.519
been better in NBA history over a
two game stretch. It's absolutely ridiculous at

18
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:23.040
him and I think the Clippers just
ran into an immovable object today with the

19
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:26.239
way that Boston was knocking down threes, the way they were hoisting threes,

20
00:01:26.359 --> 00:01:30.719
it almost felt like they knew they
were gonna hit twenty five because they shot

21
00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:34.319
eight of their first ten shots from
outside the arc. They were hoisting early,

22
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.640
they were hitting early, and really
they played the percentages and the percentages

23
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:44.480
worked out in their favor. You
can't blame everything on another team's shooting shooting.

24
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:48.159
But today, I feel like a
lot of what the Clippers struggled with

25
00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:52.599
was Boston just hitting backbreaker after backbreaker
from outside the arc. Yeah, some

26
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:56.319
of it just feels like wrong place, wrong time for the Clippers. They

27
00:01:56.359 --> 00:02:00.439
caught a hot team at the wrong
time at home. But on the the

28
00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:05.400
Clippers just weren't good enough offensively.
Defensively, the perimeter defense wasn't there for

29
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:09.520
the most part. And this is
I'm hoping some tired legs from the Clippers

30
00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:13.159
just having a little bit of a
letdown after winning nine straight, where they

31
00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:16.199
have lost two straight, both without
Kawhi Leonard, and they could bounce back

32
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:21.039
in a big way coming up on
Tuesday. Yeah, the next part of

33
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:24.400
this Clippers schedule at him is a
lot kinder than recently. They'll play the

34
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:28.479
Hornets, and then they'll have two
more days off, play the Grizzlies,

35
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:30.000
and then have the Heat here at
home. So they got a four game

36
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:34.520
stretch in which they're not playing every
other day, which I think is big

37
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:37.840
for this team. They just look
tired. This is the third third game

38
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:40.039
in the last four games and a
different time zone and a different arena.

39
00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:45.560
They played their fourth in six days. They were without Kawhi Leonard. They

40
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:49.719
looked tired today. Paul George was
getting to going early. Harden didn't do

41
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:52.360
a whole lot on the offensive end. He had a mini five zero run

42
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:54.400
in there in the third. Clippers
need to get their groove back, they

43
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:58.520
need to get their momentum back.
It's the NBA, and we talked about

44
00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:01.240
a pregame how tight is this one
conference. You can't have a three game

45
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:05.199
losing streak. You can't spend more
time on the losing side, and you

46
00:03:05.240 --> 00:03:07.919
gotta stay paced with the pack and
the Clippers need to come away with a

47
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:12.360
win in that one. They fall
by thirty seven to the Boston Celtics today

48
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:15.879
at home. They'll get back after
it. The day after Christmas. They'll

49
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:19.280
be tipping off against the Charlotte Hornets
at seven thirty from Crypto. We'll have

50
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:23.639
your pregame show starting at six thirty, Carlo Jimenez. Even in a game

51
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:25.560
like this, great call, my
friend. We'll do it again on Tuesday.

52
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:29.080
I cannot wait to see your face
at them back. The Clippers are

53
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:31.599
gonna see your face on Tuesday and
things are gonna come away with a win.

54
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:36.319
We will turn this thing around.
Brick brother Jake Warner, he's always

55
00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:38.520
bringing the good vibes. You know
how it is. I'll have a big

56
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:42.960
Carb face after Christmas for a big
Clippers victory, hopefully back I like that.

57
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:46.159
Coming up next, we'll get to
your final box score. Clippers lose

58
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:50.159
at home one forty five to oneh
eight to the Celtics. And you're listening

59
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:55.120
to the Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network. Every Clipper game all season long.

60
00:03:55.240 --> 00:04:00.319
They didn't stop playing hard. You're
listening to the LA Clippers, a young

61
00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:05.000
network streaming on the iHeartRadio wive Clippers
lose one forty five till one o eight

62
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:09.919
at home to the Boston Celtics.
Welcome back into your postgame show. I'm

63
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:13.280
at a Moslin This is Clippers locker
room. Coming up. We'll have on

64
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:16.399
a five seven LA Sports Clippers talk
for you eight six six nine eight seven

65
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:19.759
two five seventy. But while we
have a moment, let's pause ten seconds

66
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:25.639
for station identification. Here on the
Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network, this is

67
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:30.560
LA Clippers Basketball AM five to seventy
KLAC Los Angeles, ninety eight seven KYSR

68
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:35.240
HD two Los Angeles and iHeartRadio station. Not a lot to say about this

69
00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:40.279
one, Clipper Nation, but I'll
still try. As the Boston Celtics went

70
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:46.639
twenty five for fifty three from the
outside, that's forty seven percent from three

71
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:51.079
on extremely high volume and on their
in their last two games. Now the

72
00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:57.519
Boston Celtics are forty seven of ninety
five from three. That's forty nine percent.

73
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:00.680
I don't know if anyone has been
bet or an NBA history over a

74
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:05.199
two game stretch on that volume.
Maybe the Golden State Warriors, maybe the

75
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:10.959
Houston Rockets. I think Milwaukee has
the all time record from three in a

76
00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:14.600
game at twenty nine, so maybe
they rolled that into hitting I don't know

77
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:18.560
twenty to the next game. This
is unbelievable what we're seeing from the Boston

78
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:23.800
Celtics and what we saw in this
one. But Clippers are certainly culpable and

79
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:26.439
have to be responsible for some of
that hot shooting, as they were just

80
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:30.079
eleven of thirty four from three and
couldn't get close to matching it outside of

81
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.759
PG thirteen and a Vitza Zubats.
Not a lot of great performances in this

82
00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:38.680
one, and I thought Paul George
was good nine or seventeen in thirty minutes

83
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:45.959
he had twenty one points. But
the effort defensively in rotating and trying to

84
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:48.360
slow down the Boston Celtics in that
hot shooting, it just was not there

85
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:53.360
in this one. You lose by
thirty seven at home. There aren't gonna

86
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:56.560
be a lot of positives, but
a lot to talk about with this Clippers

87
00:05:56.600 --> 00:06:00.959
team over the past couple of weeks
now and where things could be trending.

88
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.240
Hopefully, this is just a blip
in a long eighty two game season.

89
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:08.319
A two game losing streak, and
they get right back after it come Tuesday

90
00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:12.439
against the Charlotte Hornets. Tip time
for that once at seven thirty. We'll

91
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:15.519
have your pregame show starting at six
thirty when we return. More on this

92
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:20.720
postgame box score and we'll preview Tuesday's
game. Slippers lose by thirty seven at

93
00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:27.279
home to the Boston Celtics without Kawhi
Leonard on the Boston and christafsportsingis e more

94
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.959
Clippers post game decks right here on
the Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network. LA

95
00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:35.879
Clippers Basketball is odd. The two
to one three era continues. You're listening

96
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:41.839
to the LA Clippers on the LA
Clippers from Audio Network. Clippers lose by

97
00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:46.600
thirty seven at home to the Boston
Celtics as they hitch twenty five to three

98
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:51.360
pointers, not a franchise record.
Last season they hit twenty seven in a

99
00:06:51.399 --> 00:06:55.480
game. They're coming off a game
where they hitch twenty two up in NorCal

100
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:59.199
against the Sacramento Kings. So maybe
a little bit of wrong place, wrong

101
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:02.040
time for the clip was against the
Boston team that just has not been able

102
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:06.879
to cool down from distance. Clippers
scored just one toh eight. They were

103
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:11.199
outscored in the first quarter by seven, it was twenty eight to twenty one

104
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:14.439
Boston. They outscored the Clippers by
ten in the second quarter at forty to

105
00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:16.800
thirty, by eight, in the
third quarter thirty eight to thirty and by

106
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:21.720
twelve, and the fourth thirty nine
to twenty seven. Really never let up

107
00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:27.040
in this one worst loss of the
season for your Los Angeles Clippers, to

108
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:30.839
say the least. Didn't have Kawhi
Leonard, but Boston was without Christaps Porzingis.

109
00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:33.600
We didn't know if Jason Tatum would
be able to go had an ankle

110
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:38.920
injury, didn't play against Sacramento.
In thirty minutes. He had thirty points

111
00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:43.040
today, five of ten shooting from
distance, nine of sixteen. Overall,

112
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:47.720
Paul George was solid twenty one points
in thirty minutes himself nine of seventeen shooting,

113
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:54.160
But Clippers didn't get much else from
anyone else without Kawhi Leonard. James

114
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:58.879
Harden just fourteen points, only took
thirteen shots. Now only had to play

115
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:01.560
twenty nine minutes since the Clippers,
uh, we're waving that white flag early

116
00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:07.000
in the fourth quarter, but off
the bench, Daniel Tice some inconsequential buckets

117
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:11.360
late fifteen points. Russell Westbrook I
thought had a miserable first half, but

118
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:16.920
turned it around slightly in the second
half. Clippers are already down by thirty,

119
00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:20.120
but ended up with twelve points.
Brandon Boston had thirteen and thirteen minutes,

120
00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:24.360
most of them coming late in the
fourth. Clippers lose one forty five

121
00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:28.800
to one oh eight. They dropped
to seventeen and twelve now on the season

122
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:31.679
and eleven and four at home.
Boston improves at twenty two and six on

123
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:37.759
the year, eight and six away
now. Clippers next game remains at Crypto

124
00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:43.159
Tuesday night, day after Christmas.
They'll be taken on the Charlotte Hornets,

125
00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:46.600
tip off at seven thirty pregame at
six thirty outside of Los Angeles. We

126
00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:48.320
are leaving you until then, but

Plus Chuck Moncklin from Clips and Dip
will join me. Boston's not cool and

144
00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:18.279
off. We knew coming into this
game. They just went for a season

145
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:26.240
high twenty two made three pointers without
Jason Tatum against the Sacramento Kings up in

146
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:33.559
norcl A couple of nights ago.
They outdid that against the Clippers. They

147
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:41.039
hit twenty five threes twenty five of
fifty three. That's forty seven percent from

148
00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:48.759
the outside, which is under their
three point average over the last two games.

149
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:56.120
Listen to this. The Boston Celtics
and their last two games are forty

150
00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:01.159
seven for ninety five from three.
That's forty nine percent on high volume,

151
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:07.360
I mean real high. I don't
know if anyone's been better over a two

152
00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:13.000
game stretch in NBA history on that
many shots from three. The only two

153
00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:16.679
teams I could think of competing with
that in NBA history would be the Golden

154
00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:22.159
State Warriors and the Houston Rockets.
Well, James Harden, some of it

155
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:28.639
was bad defense, yeah, sure, some of it was unreal shooting by

156
00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:33.759
the Boston Celtics and the Clippers.
On the other end, well, it

157
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:41.240
sounded more like this from them.
On offense short, it sounded like pong.

158
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:52.600
Can I hear that again? Short? Short? Now? When you're

159
00:11:52.720 --> 00:12:00.240
short that often, it usually speaks
to tired legs. The Clippers just eleven

160
00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:07.360
of thirty four from three short,
and I'm just wondering if this stretch were

161
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:13.679
they won ninth straight and it'd been
playing amazing basketball is starting to catch up

162
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:18.159
with them, three different time zones
over the three different days their last games.

163
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:22.960
I'm not trying to make excuses for
them. I'm just asking the question

164
00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:31.240
short why they looked this lethargic defensively. I know they didn't have Kawhi Leonard,

165
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:35.279
but Boston didn't have Kristaps Porzingis,
who's been shooting forty two percent from

166
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:39.799
three over the last ten games.
The Clippers only score one h eight.

167
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:46.440
They only scored twenty one points in
the first quarter. They got lit up

168
00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:50.639
like a Christmas tree, and the
star on top was Jason Tatum. We

169
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:54.879
didn't even know who was going to
play, and he had thirty points and

170
00:12:54.960 --> 00:13:00.919
thirty minutes after not playing against the
Kings with an ankle injury. He goes

171
00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:05.480
five of ten from the outside.
Paul George tried to match him. He

172
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:09.120
was good. He had twenty one
points in thirty minutes, nine of seventeen

173
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:15.320
shooting felt like though in the first
half especially, he just needed to get

174
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:18.759
up more shots and then to start
off the third quarter where the Clippers got

175
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:24.440
blitz some more. He didn't take
a shot in the first two minutes and

176
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:26.360
then finally did out of a timeout
and had a quick five points, but

177
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:35.639
it just completely unraveled and spiraled on
the Clippers and they came up unbelievably short

178
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:43.440
in this ball came they lose by
thirty seven at home. Maybe some tired

179
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:50.440
legs, maybe a team that I
hope not would had a foot out the

180
00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:54.240
door because Christmas is coming up.
They got two days off. That would

181
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.600
be concerning. I don't want to
say it was for a lack of effort.

182
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:03.360
Early on, I thought the defense
was pretty strong, but they got

183
00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:11.000
crushed on the boards. Boston ended
up with fifteen offensive rebounds, but they

184
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:15.399
had ten second chance points. I
want to say by early in the second

185
00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:20.759
quarter off of just creating more possessions
off of offensive rebounds. In fact,

186
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:28.360
in the first quarter they had five
offensive rebounds alone, leading to seven second

187
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.039
chance points. So yeah, by
early in the second they were at ten

188
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:35.480
second chance points. They were getting
to the fifty to fifty balls. They

189
00:14:35.519 --> 00:14:41.519
looked like the quicker, hungrier team, and the Clippers just didn't compete at

190
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:46.679
a high enough level, at least
to meet the Boston Celtics with their god

191
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:54.919
tier like shooting and without Kawhi Leonard
haven't looked like the same team the last

192
00:14:54.919 --> 00:15:00.559
two games. I thought the game
in OKC on Thursday was a bit of

193
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:03.559
a schedule loss, but I thought
they'd get up for this one. I

194
00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:09.240
gotta be honest, and I know
Mattine start. That's not an excuse to

195
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:16.679
me. Here's why if we have
to keep saying over and over again,

196
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:22.639
man, they keep having these twelve
thirty starts twelve pm tips at home.

197
00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.320
Nobody else has to deal with this. But if we're repeating it that often,

198
00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:33.279
shouldn't they be used to it by
now? I know what stinks.

199
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:37.480
I know they get the short end
of the stick at Crypto dot Com Arena.

200
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:43.720
Third billing into a dome can't come
soon enough, But how are you

201
00:15:43.799 --> 00:15:50.480
not used to this schedule by now? These early home games. I would

202
00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:54.200
have thought over the years they would
start to get better. They were down

203
00:15:54.240 --> 00:16:00.720
by seven in the first quarter,
they were down by seventeen by the end

204
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:06.799
of the first half. By the
end of the third quarter, they were

205
00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:11.240
down one oh six to eighty one. Boston never looked back. They end

206
00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:15.360
up winning by thirty seven in a
game they led by as many as thirty

207
00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:21.799
nine. If you want to say
it, was a sleepwalk type of game

208
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:26.440
from the Clippers. From the outset, I don't know. I felt like

209
00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:33.360
they were engaged. They weren't hitting
shots like Boston was, and sometimes that

210
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:36.639
can throw off your perception of how
much effort was out there when a team

211
00:16:36.679 --> 00:16:40.279
is just that hot, and even
when you have a hand in their face,

212
00:16:40.279 --> 00:16:42.600
they're knocking them down. Paul George
had a really well contested three on

213
00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:45.159
Jason Tatum. I think in the
first quarter. It was near the end

214
00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:51.480
of the first quarter. He still
hit it wrong place, wrong time.

215
00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:56.080
Is Boston just a buzzsaw? They're
the best team in the East, but

216
00:16:56.159 --> 00:17:00.720
again didn't have Christaps Porzingis. I
felt good about the Clippers coming into this

217
00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:03.680
one, so I'm not gonna switch
up on you like I'm Stephen A.

218
00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:08.359
Smith and all of a sudden athletic. I didn't say that. Disappointing effort

219
00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:14.279
from the Clippers overall, disappointing execution
more so than anything though. For me,

220
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:19.039
they just weren't good enough. Too
much complaining with the referees at times

221
00:17:19.039 --> 00:17:22.200
too A Vitza Zubos was getting into
it with them. I thought he had

222
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:27.000
a strong second stint in the second
quarter, started to get active. They

223
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:33.880
were looking for him. Had I
want to say, a big putback dunk

224
00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:40.400
off of PG miss, another one
off of Russ miss into the second quarter,

225
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:45.519
early bucket in the third quarter.
He was my player to watch.

226
00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:49.279
He did have sixteen to ten.
You look at that in twenty seven minutes.

227
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:53.279
That's a good stat line. But
he still minus twenty eight as the

228
00:17:53.279 --> 00:18:00.880
Clippers got annihilated by the Boston Celtics
starters. Their bench was okay at times.

229
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:03.039
I thought Russ had a really bad
stretch when he came in early on

230
00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:07.279
a turnover, right away, a
bad three got blocked by Horford. He

231
00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:14.119
was over dribbling, missed the jumper
in the second just not his shots,

232
00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:18.039
not a great shot selection from him, some ill advised stuff. He was

233
00:18:18.119 --> 00:18:22.799
much better in the second half,
but too little, too late from he

234
00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.359
and the Clippers at that point.
Now Daniel Tye started to play better and

235
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:29.480
ended up with fifteen points. But
there's not a lot you can take away

236
00:18:29.519 --> 00:18:34.480
from this box score outside of the
difference in three point shooting the start.

237
00:18:34.519 --> 00:18:40.519
Contrast there with Boston hitting fourteen more
three pointers in the Clippers, You're not

238
00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:45.400
gonna overcome that. Clippers also had
five turnovers in the first quarter. Now

239
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:48.839
they ended up I'm gonna double source
it. One of my box scoreres says

240
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:53.440
ten, the other one says eleven. I'm gonna go off that. I

241
00:18:53.480 --> 00:18:57.599
trust the eye test and that matches
that, So eleven's not bad. But

242
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:00.000
the problem was they had five of
those in the first quarter, and that

243
00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:03.640
started to set that tone for the
Boston Celtics. They were getting out and

244
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:11.359
running a little bit, and the
Clippers energy dump whatever you want to call

245
00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:15.599
it. They didn't look quick enough. Obviously, they weren't battling like Boston

246
00:19:15.799 --> 00:19:22.279
was for those offensive rebounds. Defensive
rebounds for the Clippers that turned in offense

247
00:19:22.319 --> 00:19:26.319
rebounds instead for the Boston Celtics is
the Clippers weren't getting to them. Disappointing.

248
00:19:29.039 --> 00:19:33.640
And here's something that is more concerning
for me. Outside of a loss

249
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:36.480
where you can say burn the tape, turn the page, there's not a

250
00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:38.200
lot you can learn from this.
I've seen them over the years. They

251
00:19:38.240 --> 00:19:42.200
happen within an e two game season. It's not that out of the ordinary.

252
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:47.400
I could go back to the fifty
one point when that the Dallas Mavericks

253
00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:51.119
had over the Clippers within the first
week of the season back in the twenty

254
00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:55.000
twenty one year, did it amount
too much? No Clippers would go on

255
00:19:55.039 --> 00:19:59.640
to the Western Conference Finals. They
beat Dallas in the first round. So

256
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:07.119
these James happened. But what's been
happening over and over again is Terrence Man

257
00:20:07.160 --> 00:20:15.680
being in a shooting funk. There's
a pretty large shample size now of data

258
00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:21.359
where I want to say, this
was game twenty three for him on the

259
00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:26.839
season, coming back from that ankle
injury, and he's at around twenty three

260
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:33.200
percent from three tonight. Oh of
ten. Glad he got up ten shots.

261
00:20:33.359 --> 00:20:37.799
Wish he got up even more in
the fourth quarter when it was just

262
00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:41.759
garbage time. I wish Man just
shot himself out of this funk, because

263
00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:45.599
that's what it is. It's between
the ears, it's a confidence thing.

264
00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:51.039
It's Steve Sacks trying to throw it
to first base, and like Steve Sacks,

265
00:20:51.079 --> 00:20:56.319
he continues to miss his target of
six from three. This is a

266
00:20:56.359 --> 00:21:00.799
guy that is a thirty eight percent
three point shooter for his career. Now

267
00:21:00.880 --> 00:21:07.920
that's a big sample size. But
the cold start in a game where they

268
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:11.880
really could have used him with no
Kawhi Leonard same in Oka. See struggled

269
00:21:11.880 --> 00:21:17.359
there too. I think two of
seven he was more hesitant against the thunder,

270
00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:21.720
which tells you it's in his head. He's thinking about it too much.

271
00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:26.440
There was a three pointer he turned
down early in the first half,

272
00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:30.599
and James Harden got on him about
it. He would then continue to fire

273
00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:38.319
to no avail. But zero of
ten, that eight hundred pound gorilla is

274
00:21:38.440 --> 00:21:44.359
now weighing like a ton on his
back, which just shooting himself out of

275
00:21:44.359 --> 00:21:48.920
this shooting funk, which is what
it has to be. Shoot yourself out

276
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:51.759
of it. Like John McClain and
die Hard. Yes, it's a Christmas

277
00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:55.680
movie. If it takes place around
Christmas, it is a damn Christmas movie.

278
00:21:56.119 --> 00:21:59.880
Sure, that's what's been like for
Terrence Man right now. Unfortunately,

279
00:22:00.960 --> 00:22:07.640
I think he'll come around. I
believe the data and the evidence we have

280
00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:12.000
for him in his entire career is
more meaningful than this twenty three game stretch.

281
00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:21.839
This is a guy who has been
reliable for the Clippers with his play

282
00:22:22.359 --> 00:22:29.480
when guys have been out. He's
just overthinking it. He just needs to

283
00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:34.000
play instinctual basketball. He just needs
to see a couple go through. But

284
00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:38.839
with every miss, it's like a
hitter in the slump, in a slump

285
00:22:38.880 --> 00:22:45.240
at the plate, just gripping the
bats so much harder, saw dust flying

286
00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:52.200
everywhere. It just makes things so
much more difficult for Terrence Man. As

287
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:56.039
he continues to miss in the game, he goes over and the Clippers lose

288
00:22:56.559 --> 00:23:02.799
by thirty seven. Well, start
with Sean and Inglewood. Sean, what's

289
00:23:02.839 --> 00:23:07.440
up here on Clippers stock without a
maza, Hey, Adam and just leaving

290
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:11.319
from the game. And I'll tell
you, right at the outset, you

291
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:17.440
just feel that it was like something
that lets the you know, it was

292
00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:21.359
like appliance that wasn't plugged up.
You know, it just wasn't a lot

293
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:23.440
of energy in the Clippers. I
mean, there was some effort, like

294
00:23:23.480 --> 00:23:27.880
you said, in that first quarter, but it seemed like Paul George was

295
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:33.160
really he was trying to get his
The other guys were like, you know,

296
00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:37.160
they just didn't really feel like they
could do anything. And I saw

297
00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:42.680
the Celtics kept bunching up the paint, and so when the Clippers came into

298
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:48.480
the paint, they started getting frustrated
because they were getting fouled and they weren't

299
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:52.160
getting any calls. I mean,
they were getting slapped around quite a bit.

300
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:56.480
But on the other side, if
you breathed on the Celtics, you

301
00:23:56.559 --> 00:24:00.000
got called for a foul. Well, it certainly something seemed like a home

302
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:03.880
game for them, and this one
unfortunately, Yeah, it did seem like

303
00:24:03.960 --> 00:24:10.759
a home game for the Celtics and
that aspect. So it was it started

304
00:24:10.799 --> 00:24:15.000
going, you know, circling the
drain pretty quickly, you know, after

305
00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:18.079
they can't get a call, and
you know, but the one thing,

306
00:24:18.440 --> 00:24:25.680
as you said, it also seemed
like they were The Celtics got four rebounds

307
00:24:25.759 --> 00:24:30.279
every rebound that the Clippers get.
With all due respect to Zoo who was

308
00:24:30.319 --> 00:24:37.759
in there fighting, that seemed like
that did happen. And one positive Kobe

309
00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:42.079
Brown, Yeah, three, he's
seeming to get comfortable that one play where

310
00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:47.279
Russ came down and forced the action
to him and flipped it out to Kobe

311
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:51.079
in a real positive past. All
Kobe had to do was catch and shoot.

312
00:24:51.720 --> 00:24:56.799
That was good. But when you
talked about terrace Man, if I

313
00:24:56.839 --> 00:25:00.400
could chime in, if he had
the mentality of Brandon Boston, Brandon wants

314
00:25:00.400 --> 00:25:04.440
to be the next Kobe. Well, he comes out there, he's shooting

315
00:25:04.519 --> 00:25:08.079
all the time, his gun is
loaded, and Terrence man needs to have

316
00:25:08.240 --> 00:25:12.680
maybe a little bit more that mentality
like Brandon Boston had. I don't,

317
00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:17.640
I don't, I don't disagree with
you. But he did get up ten

318
00:25:17.720 --> 00:25:22.000
shots in this one went over ten. I thought he was less hesitant overall

319
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:29.279
today than he was the past couple
of games. Yeah, but I'm not

320
00:25:29.400 --> 00:25:33.119
man at the game. I mean, he's two losses. I'll give him

321
00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:36.240
a pass. But you know,
after all this is over, the next

322
00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:40.279
game, go for it, go
after it. Hopefully Kawhi be back,

323
00:25:40.759 --> 00:25:42.880
and hopefully pretty soon in a week
or two, we'll see makes him pump

324
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:48.759
fumbly hits the floor too. Did
you see him pregame? He was going

325
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:51.839
through some drills, a little three
on three. He still had a brace

326
00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:56.400
on his leg, which isn't a
great sign. He wasn't going full force.

327
00:25:57.000 --> 00:26:00.559
He wasn't going full speed out there. But it's something to take away

328
00:26:00.559 --> 00:26:07.079
from it, right, But they
said it's only supposed to be for two

329
00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:11.720
months, and that was about six
weeks ago. So I'm optimistic that we'll

330
00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:15.799
have him back, and maybe the
guys just need to just get a little

331
00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:21.240
rejuvenation and come on back and and
just you know, because they weren't doing

332
00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:23.599
any health defense too much. That
was one of the things I saw,

333
00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:26.720
And they certainly weren't blocking out.
How are you gonna help How are you

334
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:30.640
gonna John? How are you gonna
help out on guys? When everyone's hitting

335
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:37.599
shots like that? How you how
are you gonna help defense? I don't

336
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:40.680
know, but they figured out out. I'm just saying, if if a

337
00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:45.759
team's that hot, like you can't
really play off anyone. Well, they

338
00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:52.279
were hot because they were getting wide
open jumpers. Come on, some of

339
00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:56.319
them were wide, were wide open, some of them were well defended,

340
00:26:56.400 --> 00:27:00.000
and it did not matter at all. Yeah, you could have been better,

341
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:04.200
That's all I gotta say. But
yeah, I agree with you for

342
00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:07.759
your point you made today. All
right, Sean, appreciate the phone call.

the LA Clippers Audio Network streaming on
the iHeartRadio Wive. Clippers lose by thirty

349
00:27:40.359 --> 00:27:44.519
seven to the Boston Celtics at home. As early on in the game,

350
00:27:44.559 --> 00:27:48.559
they went four minutes without a make, and I felt like Boston didn't go

351
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:52.279
a possession without hitting a three pointer. They knocked down twenty five of them,

352
00:27:52.839 --> 00:27:57.599
shot forty seven percent from three and
win one forty five to one oh

353

I'man a Mosland eight sixty six nine
eight seven two five seventy eight sixty

355
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:11.319
six nine eight seven two five seventy. Boston had ten second chance points by

356
00:28:11.359 --> 00:28:15.640
the nine minute mark of the second
quarter. They were getting offensive rebound after

357
00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:22.400
offensive rebound. The point where the
game really spiraled out of controller went sideways

358
00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:26.160
on the Clippers to me, was
after Tatum got called for that reckless close

359
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:33.400
out on Kobe Brown undercut his landing
space. Uh, that was a mad

360
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:37.119
three pointer plus the foul, and
I think after that, the Clippers were

361
00:28:37.119 --> 00:28:41.759
down by nineteen in the first half. They were down seventeen twenty four minutes

362
00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:45.799
in down by as many as thirty
nine. They lose by thirty seven.

363
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:51.200
And in short, yeah, in
a game where they didn't shoot it well.

364
00:28:52.160 --> 00:28:53.160
I know the numbers at the end
are gonna say, Okay, they

365
00:28:53.160 --> 00:29:00.160
were forty six percent from the field, but they shot thirty nine percent the

366
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:06.759
first quarter where they were already down
double digits early on. At the half,

367
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:11.920
the Clippers were at forty three percent. And look, it's not that

368
00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:18.279
their offense was so bad and scoring
one oh eight isn't great, don't get

369
00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:23.759
me wrong, but they didn't have
the firepower to match what Boston was doing.

370
00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:30.240
They got outclassed and outplayed and out
hustled and outworked, and that's how

371
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:33.880
you get a lopside score like this
period. Not enough guys stepping out,

372
00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:40.680
stepping up with the absence of Kawhi
being out, I thought it was a

373
00:29:40.680 --> 00:29:45.480
game where they need a lot more
from Norman Powell. He struggled early and

374
00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:48.720
ended up with just seven points,
three of nine shooting. Yeah, Kobe

375
00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:51.519
Brown knocked down a couple of three
pointers. If you're looking for positive,

376
00:29:51.559 --> 00:29:56.079
Sean and Englewood did bring that up. But Russell Westbrook a really rough first

377
00:29:56.079 --> 00:30:00.720
half off the bench. The Cavalry
didn't exactly arrive to help out the starters

378
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:07.559
who just got crushed plus minus.
Wise, they were losing their minutes in

379
00:30:07.599 --> 00:30:11.720
a big way. James Harden was
a game worst minus thirty four. Terrence

380
00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:15.799
Man was a minus thirty three.
You eat to Zubots of minus twenty eight,

381
00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:18.160
Paul George to minus twenty seven.
Hey, I'm here coffee just minus

382
00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:22.799
eleven. Of course he only played
seventeen minutes, probably a reason for that.

383
00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:26.559
He wasn't great either. Look outside
of Paul George and I eats a

384
00:30:26.599 --> 00:30:32.440
Zubots in that second quarter a little
bit now, during the time of the

385
00:30:32.480 --> 00:30:37.279
game where it was still within reach, not many Clippers played well. Damien

386
00:30:37.359 --> 00:30:41.200
in La You're on Clippers South without
a mileson. What's up, Damien triple

387
00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:45.200
A man, first and foremost,
thank you for taking my call. And

388
00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:48.200
I just want to say Mary Christmas
to you, brother, Mary Christmas to

389
00:30:48.240 --> 00:30:53.720
you and yours as well. This
is a real disappointing, embarrassing loss.

390
00:30:53.799 --> 00:30:56.400
You know, I'm up there in
the yacht club as I call it,

391
00:30:56.440 --> 00:31:00.799
in the three hundred section, and
it's a green up there. I can't

392
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:07.559
get my bobblehead, you know,
because they've taken them and the energy on

393
00:31:07.680 --> 00:31:11.599
the defensive end. I just I
didn't get it. Like like you said,

394
00:31:12.039 --> 00:31:18.160
it wasn't that the game that the
Clippers played was all that terrible,

395
00:31:18.319 --> 00:31:22.279
especially to start the game, but
the defensive energy and then the lack of

396
00:31:22.359 --> 00:31:26.480
rebounding. I thought that, you
know, we're thinking that, yeah,

397
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:30.039
we want to get out there and
we want a gang rebound. Zubac tells

398
00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:33.799
his end another double double. He's
been playing better and he's been improving,

399
00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:36.200
so I'll get off of him.
I won't get on his sack. But

400
00:31:36.720 --> 00:31:42.319
dude, the next guy, Russell
Westbrook with five rebounds, and I'm looking

401
00:31:42.359 --> 00:31:45.359
at it and I'm saying, we
got to do more. I'm looking at

402
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:48.960
it and I'm thinking, like in
the locker room, Okay, it's not

403
00:31:48.079 --> 00:31:51.960
that bad. It looks bad on
paper, but it's not that bad.

404
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:55.400
We start to tighten up on the
defensive end and start to get in there

405
00:31:55.400 --> 00:31:57.279
and lock in on the rebounding.
We should be right back there in this

406
00:31:57.359 --> 00:32:00.640
game. Get a little bit better
closed out, and start to you know,

407
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:07.319
work better in transitions. Here's the
problem, Damien three. When they

408
00:32:07.359 --> 00:32:12.039
weren't rebounding, it was because Boston
was hitting shots. There were no rebounds

409
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:16.240
to be had they hit twenty five
three pointers. My god, well yeah,

410
00:32:16.720 --> 00:32:21.480
but do you but do you think
that you know, I think the

411
00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:24.400
first quarter was a really poor effort
by the Clippers on the glass. When

412
00:32:24.440 --> 00:32:30.240
Boston only shoots forty from the field
and go eleven or twenty seven in the

413
00:32:30.279 --> 00:32:34.240
first quarter and they still come up
with twenty eight points, that's because they

414
00:32:34.240 --> 00:32:37.640
had five offensive rebounds and they had
seven second chance points. That can't happen.

415
00:32:38.039 --> 00:32:43.200
Kristaps wasn't even out there, not
even at all, Like I can't

416
00:32:43.240 --> 00:32:45.400
even imagine what it would have been
like if you would have been there.

417
00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:49.119
But I can tell you as a
competitor myself, like not even on their

418
00:32:49.240 --> 00:32:52.000
level, but of any level,
if you let me go out there and

419
00:32:52.039 --> 00:32:54.440
feast on the boards, it's not
gonna stop. Like I'm gonna just feel

420
00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:58.319
like I got you, because this
is where games are won and lost.

421
00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:02.799
And I think that we em bold
in the Celtics by not giving up that

422
00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:08.000
type of you know, competitive effort
on the offensive and defensive glass. They

423
00:33:08.039 --> 00:33:12.160
knew they had us, and they
knew they could that we weren't gonna gonna

424
00:33:12.160 --> 00:33:15.559
give that effort, you know,
and it showed. Yeah, I think

425
00:33:15.559 --> 00:33:19.559
it's a fair point, Damian.
I appreciate the phone call. They knew

426
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:23.599
the Clippers weren't fully focused from the
get go. It compounded on them because

427
00:33:23.640 --> 00:33:28.559
of all the hot shooting from Boston
too. But when they're the ones out

428
00:33:28.559 --> 00:33:36.000
there just cracking bodies and being physical
and grabbing boards early on, there's an

429
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:39.200
intimidation factor there. They feel like
the Clippers are right for the picking.

430
00:33:40.160 --> 00:33:46.279
Its snowballed on them. Uh,
bad Christmas analogy. That's what happened.

431
00:33:47.000 --> 00:33:51.640
It did. We've played some frosts. Snowman coming in. Clippers lose one

432
00:33:51.680 --> 00:33:55.559
forty five to one eight at home
to the Boston Celtics. Morrison Longbeach,

433
00:33:55.599 --> 00:34:00.559
you're on, Clipper stop with that
amazend they had even I do not care

434
00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:05.519
who was playing the Boston Celtics,
they were going to lose. Where you

435
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:08.880
can hear fifty percent on eighty some
shots from the three point line, look

436
00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:15.000
out, America. When you got
forty five points on fifteen shots by the

437
00:34:15.159 --> 00:34:19.199
eight minute mark in the second quarter, that the game is over. These

438
00:34:19.199 --> 00:34:21.840
guys are hu listen, we need
some some specimens. They did this in

439
00:34:22.199 --> 00:34:24.960
sack Town the other night. It's
just unbelievable. They're shooting that they're doing

440
00:34:25.199 --> 00:34:29.039
now, Sometimes the team can make
you look bad. And I was listening

441
00:34:29.079 --> 00:34:31.880
to Carlo. I mean, Sean
got more credibility because he's doing witness equal

442
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:35.960
at the game. I'm just in
to Cargo, But Carlos says something he

443
00:34:36.039 --> 00:34:39.480
got my attention. He said that
the Boston Celtics are nine and one when

444
00:34:39.480 --> 00:34:44.519
they've had two days rest and when
they're shooting like that, Adam, anybody

445
00:34:44.599 --> 00:34:50.000
gonna beat them. And every team
in the National Basketball Association has had games

446
00:34:50.079 --> 00:34:53.119
like this one when they've gotten one
big and they lost big. And unfortunately

447
00:34:53.519 --> 00:34:57.599
we ain't getting no pass. So
we'll see the next game. Okay,

448
00:34:57.639 --> 00:35:02.920
Adam, do you behave yourself all
right? The long beach. I agree

449
00:35:02.920 --> 00:35:09.360
with you to a degree. I
just think the Clippers are playing a role

450
00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:14.679
in Boston being that hot from the
outside. Sacramento is still not a great

451
00:35:14.719 --> 00:35:20.119
defense. The Clippers over the last
eighteen games, I want to say,

452
00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:27.079
were tenth defensively since the new starting
lineup change, and that has dropped significantly

453
00:35:27.159 --> 00:35:30.000
over the past week. The Clippers'
defensive rating has been going down getting worse

454
00:35:31.239 --> 00:35:37.119
because they played some really good offenses
and they blew out the Pacers and the

455
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:42.559
Knicks, and it was garbage time
in the fourth quarter, and the Clippers

456
00:35:42.599 --> 00:35:45.199
let them score a lot of points, so that somewhat skews the numbers,

457
00:35:46.639 --> 00:35:52.679
but Okase put a big one on
them, and Boston tonight did the same

458
00:35:53.880 --> 00:35:59.559
while the game was still in the
balance. Boston the last two games has

459
00:35:59.599 --> 00:36:04.719
shot forty seven of ninety five from
three, that is forty nine percent from

460
00:36:04.719 --> 00:36:10.360
distance over almost one hundred shots in
a two game stretch. What's gonna bug

461
00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:15.199
me is and I take your point
that the Clippers, there's not a lot

462
00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:19.880
you can do when a team is
that hot. But what's gonna bug me

463
00:36:19.960 --> 00:36:23.480
is I just know on Christmas Day
Boston against the Lakers is only gonna shoot

464
00:36:23.480 --> 00:36:28.639
like ten to forty two from the
outside or something. They're gonna get this

465
00:36:28.719 --> 00:36:30.800
hot shooting out of their system against
the Clippers and the Kings the other night,

466
00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:36.599
and they're due to go cold.
Now, that's usually how it works

467
00:36:36.599 --> 00:36:38.599
with the law of averages. Let's
hear from coach Loup post game after the

468
00:36:38.599 --> 00:36:43.079
Clippers fall one forty five to one
oh eight at home to the Boston Celtics.

469
00:36:43.639 --> 00:36:47.559
Boston attempted fifty three from deep.
Today, when a team is shooting

470
00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:52.639
that many volume threes of that type
of clip, how does it test your

471
00:36:52.679 --> 00:36:55.719
perimeter defense, especially without Kawhi.
I'm gonna test it a lot, you

472
00:36:55.760 --> 00:36:59.559
know, we do. Come into
the game. They're gonna shoot a lot

473
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:02.440
of threes the league in three point
attempts, and all their guys can shoot

474
00:37:02.480 --> 00:37:06.159
them, you know, And so
coming to the game, we talked about

475
00:37:06.199 --> 00:37:09.480
that disgusted. You know, even
when you think they're not gonna shoot it,

476
00:37:09.480 --> 00:37:12.280
they're gonna shoot it, you know, And so we had to be

477
00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:15.079
good at just getting out to those
guys, making them put on the floor,

478
00:37:15.199 --> 00:37:17.639
you know, making them getting I
think they're second to lasting league,

479
00:37:17.800 --> 00:37:20.719
you know, getting to the basket. You know. So we know they're

480
00:37:20.760 --> 00:37:23.119
gonna shoot threes, and we just
didn't do a good job defensivee tonight or

481
00:37:23.199 --> 00:37:32.760
offense fee as well in that regard. Oh we're classy like that now,

482
00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:38.559
now, ballet Sports there head coach
lou On postgame with that audio, Clippers

483
00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:43.400
lose by thirty seven to the Celtics. We'll take a quick time out.

484
00:37:44.199 --> 00:37:47.639
Obviously spot on with everything he said
there. Clippers weren't good enough offensively,

485
00:37:49.199 --> 00:37:52.800
certainly not on the defensive end,
and that's how you get a score or

486
00:37:52.800 --> 00:37:59.440
you lose by thirty seven. More
Clippers start coming up next here on five

487
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:05.920
seven zeros. Every Clipper game all
season low. They didn't stop playing hard.

488
00:38:06.039 --> 00:38:12.280
You're listening to the La Clippers Audio
Network streaming on the iHeartRadio wipp What's

489
00:38:12.360 --> 00:38:15.599
up now? Christmas music? Clippers
lose by thirty seven. At home,

490
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:21.800
they fall one forty five to one
oh eight to the Boston Celtics. It

491
00:38:21.840 --> 00:38:24.679
would have melted any snow if we
had some here in so cal After they

492
00:38:24.760 --> 00:38:30.639
went twenty five for fifty three from
three. They attempt forty three per game

493
00:38:30.639 --> 00:38:37.840
typically. Uh, that's second in
NBA history to the Houston Rockets in twenty

494
00:38:37.880 --> 00:38:42.119
eighteen. Twenty nineteen they attempted forty
five per game. I want to say,

495
00:38:42.480 --> 00:38:44.840
of course, when you're that hot, you're gonna get ten more up

496
00:38:45.320 --> 00:38:49.719
deservedly, so twenty five to fifty
three, forty seven percent from the outside.

497
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:53.119
Boston Celtics went big over the Clippers. Welcome back into Clipper Stock.

498
00:38:53.159 --> 00:38:58.199
I'm got a Maslin eight six six
nine eight seven two five seventy is the

499
00:38:58.280 --> 00:39:02.360
phone number I heard the music?
Wasn't that Christmasy. I liked it.

500
00:39:04.000 --> 00:39:07.960
We got Chuck Makler on now of
course because of it for a little Clips

501
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:10.480
and double dip here on Clippers Talk. Chuck, you were there in person?

502
00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:14.199
What was it like? Man?
Was it any different? Am I

503
00:39:14.239 --> 00:39:19.360
missing something? Well? I guess
the only difference is I couldn't change the

504
00:39:19.440 --> 00:39:22.960
channel where I'm sure from your perspective
because maybe put something else on. But

505
00:39:22.519 --> 00:39:27.000
no, this one, this one
was tough. What made it even tougher

506
00:39:27.119 --> 00:39:30.800
was just the amount of support that
the Celtics had in the building. This

507
00:39:30.920 --> 00:39:35.760
is I'm not throwing shade at Clippers
fans at all. Celtics fans travel well.

508
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:37.880
But there was a moment early in
the game where they had two really

509
00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:43.400
tough offensive rebounds and the crowd just
sounded like we were in the middle of

510
00:39:43.440 --> 00:39:45.880
Boston or something like that. So
I guess that was a little disappointing that

511
00:39:45.960 --> 00:39:51.840
the Celtics fans got to see their
team win in such fashion at stables.

512
00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:54.000
I got to ask you this,
and hey, yeah, credit the Boston

513
00:39:54.039 --> 00:39:58.559
transplants. It was probably an early
Christmas present to get to see their team

514
00:39:58.599 --> 00:40:01.159
at this game. And maybe they'll
be there on Monday as well. But

515
00:40:01.559 --> 00:40:07.320
did it sound like this live when
the Clippers were missing shots, Because to

516
00:40:07.360 --> 00:40:13.079
me, this rim being miked almost
sounds like you're playing pong short one more

517
00:40:13.119 --> 00:40:19.239
time, Kamie more time. Shortly. It felt like that the whole game.

518
00:40:19.440 --> 00:40:22.440
It just other than Paul George to
start this one, it was just

519
00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:25.039
kind of a nightmare for all the
Clippers. I mean, I'm sure you've

520
00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:29.199
gotten some calls about it, but
Terrence Man really didn't do anything to help

521
00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:32.800
his case to keep starting. Oh
for ten is just brutal and something you

522
00:40:32.840 --> 00:40:37.159
really don't expect. So I keep
saying we're not going to see more performances

523
00:40:37.199 --> 00:40:43.280
like this, but I don't know. Look, I don't want him to

524
00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:46.360
be taken out of the starting lineup, but at this point it's getting difficult

525
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:50.559
to defend, and I wouldn't be
shocked if it did happen. I don't

526
00:40:50.599 --> 00:40:53.719
know how that's going to help his
confidence if he's removed after winning the starting

527
00:40:53.840 --> 00:41:00.360
job, and really it was a
long time coming in many ways, and

528
00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:02.840
now he's not taking advantage of the
opportunity. And that's what's so frustrating.

529
00:41:02.920 --> 00:41:07.360
Right now, He's in with the
worst shooting funk of his career at a

530
00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:10.639
time when they need him and he
needs to prove that that starting job is

531
00:41:10.719 --> 00:41:15.719
his and it's cemented in stone.
Yes, it was tough to see today,

532
00:41:15.719 --> 00:41:19.599
and a mere coffee also was a
little bit invisible out there, which

533
00:41:19.760 --> 00:41:22.280
is, you know, a recipe
for disaster when the Clippers are down.

534
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:25.639
Kawhi and a mirror and Terrence are
both kind of non factors that combined one

535
00:41:25.719 --> 00:41:30.559
for thirteen from most you guys.
I was interested, and maybe this's just

536
00:41:30.599 --> 00:41:32.320
had to do with timing of the
game or something like that, but I

537
00:41:32.360 --> 00:41:38.039
really thought Tyler was going to open
the second half with Norm Powell in or

538
00:41:38.119 --> 00:41:43.440
one of a mirror or Terrence man, But I just wasn't in the cards

539
00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:49.800
tonight. Norm he again just another
kind of innof no one. Really,

540
00:41:50.679 --> 00:41:53.800
it was just brutal all around.
I'm exhausted even looking at the box for

541
00:41:53.880 --> 00:41:57.239
after seeing it, you're just like, oh, yeah, this one looked

542
00:41:57.480 --> 00:41:59.880
as bad on the box score as
it did kind of on the court.

543
00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:01.519
Hey, I've been talking for it
for an hour, talking about it for

544
00:42:01.559 --> 00:42:04.920
an hour. You could talk about
it for ten minutes. Damn it,

545
00:42:05.000 --> 00:42:08.519
Chuck, all right, this will
be my gift Christmas. You know I

546
00:42:08.559 --> 00:42:13.559
do want to say, no,
go ahead. I was gonna say,

547
00:42:13.559 --> 00:42:15.679
this is the Burn the Tape game. I think you tweeted this out this

548
00:42:15.719 --> 00:42:19.880
one. It's you know, two
losses in a row is tough. We

549
00:42:19.920 --> 00:42:22.800
talked about on our last episode yesterday. I have clips and dips so that

550
00:42:22.920 --> 00:42:24.679
to remember where this team was at
right. There was no Kauhi in this

551
00:42:24.800 --> 00:42:30.000
one. The twelve thirty start makes
things crazy. The Celtic shooting was already

552
00:42:30.039 --> 00:42:32.719
crazier than it usually is, and
the Celtic defense is very real. I

553
00:42:32.719 --> 00:42:37.000
don't watch a lot of Eastern Conference
basketball, but seeing that in person,

554
00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:40.079
it was a nice little lipless test. I guessed for ninety percent of the

555
00:42:40.079 --> 00:42:45.800
Clippers to go against a Burn the
Tape game, just kill it with fire,

556
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:51.039
maybe like put the virus in the
computer where the game is being logged

557
00:42:51.039 --> 00:42:52.679
on the server type of game,
because I don't know how you know,

558
00:42:52.840 --> 00:42:57.039
there's not VHS tape anymore or anything
like that. But you know what,

559
00:42:57.079 --> 00:42:59.760
Paul George is pretty good. I
thought I felt like you should have taken

560
00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:01.760
even more shots because he was so
hot early on, and to start the

561
00:43:01.760 --> 00:43:05.719
third quarter, the first two minutes
he didn't touch the basketball or take a

562
00:43:05.760 --> 00:43:08.079
shot. That was a little bit
frustrating, But twenty one points on nine

563
00:43:08.079 --> 00:43:13.840
of seventeen shooting. I'm not gonna
say he didn't show up. Yeah,

564
00:43:13.840 --> 00:43:15.880
I mean he showed up early.
Right at first, this game became a

565
00:43:15.920 --> 00:43:21.559
bit of a Paul George Jason Tatum
duel, which was gonna be exciting if

566
00:43:21.639 --> 00:43:24.119
if everyone else kind of picked up
the slack. But we just got killed,

567
00:43:25.360 --> 00:43:28.960
you know, in the bench minutes
that was that was brutal. But

568
00:43:29.360 --> 00:43:31.039
yeah, I mean, credit Paul
George still made me feeling under the weather.

569
00:43:31.119 --> 00:43:35.239
But I mean, you know,
twenty one on fifty three percent shooting.

570
00:43:36.079 --> 00:43:39.280
He Yeah, the game just didn't
flow like it really needed to,

571
00:43:39.320 --> 00:43:42.639
I guess, But I agree,
I would have been happy if he would

572
00:43:42.639 --> 00:43:45.440
have taken sixty shots from this one. It's sounding more like the No Words

573
00:43:45.519 --> 00:43:51.239
game. That's what it's turning into
right now. Do you think there's something

574
00:43:51.559 --> 00:43:55.920
big picture wise with this team right
now? There's anything more concerning than just

575
00:43:57.119 --> 00:44:00.480
them losing by thirty seven and losing
that last game in o case, see,

576
00:44:00.760 --> 00:44:05.599
do we should we not overreact too
much and this team is still trending

577
00:44:05.599 --> 00:44:09.480
in the right direction? Is my
question. I think what we saw is

578
00:44:09.880 --> 00:44:14.159
I mean, unsurprisingly, yet again, I don't know how many times I've

579
00:44:14.159 --> 00:44:16.199
said it on this podcast, the
team goes as far as Kawhi Leonder and

580
00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:21.760
Paul George, So when one of
those guys is out, things are gonna

581
00:44:21.760 --> 00:44:23.199
be even harder. We know James
Harden is great. I would have liked

582
00:44:23.360 --> 00:44:28.360
him to see him be a little
more aggressive in this one, you know,

583
00:44:28.440 --> 00:44:30.360
just kivin who was out and whatnot. But I don't think there's anything

584
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:35.679
super big to take away. They
went up against a team that you know,

585
00:44:35.719 --> 00:44:37.639
they were shorthanded as well too,
but that's a really good Celtics team.

586
00:44:38.039 --> 00:44:44.400
I think, what if Clippers fans
want a game to maybe look at

587
00:44:44.800 --> 00:44:47.199
to maybe blow out of proportion,
and I mean that in a respectful way.

588
00:44:47.519 --> 00:44:51.440
Is what happens on Tuesday against the
Hornets? Is Kawhi gonna go?

589
00:44:51.800 --> 00:44:55.679
How are they gonna come out after
losing by just under a cool forty to

590
00:44:55.760 --> 00:45:00.639
the Celtics? So I would I'm
weirdly looking more ahead to that game and

591
00:45:00.639 --> 00:45:05.960
seeing the response from this team.
Any body language expert type stuff. With

592
00:45:06.039 --> 00:45:09.320
Kawhi Leonard on the bench, was
he getting up and looking, you know,

593
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:14.199
like he wasn't moving around too gingerly. I'm just wondering, Chuck,

594
00:45:14.239 --> 00:45:20.119
you were there. I didn't have
I didn't have my Kawhi binocular Lumby,

595
00:45:20.639 --> 00:45:23.159
but he didn't look like he was
moving too gingerly. We gotta something about

596
00:45:23.239 --> 00:45:28.840
Mary that. Come on, get
those binoculars going. There was no wak.

597
00:45:28.880 --> 00:45:30.719
I didn't see him using a walker
or anything like that, So I

598
00:45:30.760 --> 00:45:36.679
think I'm hoping he's good for Tuesday. All right. He is Chuck Mockler

how I fare against you after a game

606
00:46:09.119 --> 00:46:14.000
where the Clippers lose by thirty seven
to the Boston Celtics, still seventeen and

607
00:46:14.079 --> 00:46:17.360
twelve, I'll update you on the
Western Conference standings coming up here. Clippers

608
00:46:17.440 --> 00:46:22.519
next game Tuesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Still at home at Crypto, tip

609
00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:25.239
off at seven thirty. We'll have
Clippers countdown starting at six thirty. I'm

610
00:46:25.239 --> 00:46:29.440
out of Mosland. More Clippers stock
next here on AM five to seventy LA

611
00:46:29.480 --> 00:46:36.920
Sports loading Clippers fully loaded with Clippers
fans. This is LA Clippers basketball.

612
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:42.159
You're listening to the LA Clippers on
the LA Clippers Audio Network. All right,

613
00:46:42.239 --> 00:46:45.800
Boston, I don't want to see
a letdown from you guys on Monday.

614
00:46:45.840 --> 00:46:50.360
Now. I figure to do this
with the Clippers. Make it count.

615
00:46:51.679 --> 00:46:55.480
Clippers fall one forty five to oneh
eight the Boston Celtics at home.

616
00:46:57.840 --> 00:47:00.400
Welcome back into Clippers stock. I'm
at a Moslin Get to me on x

617
00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:07.039
at follow adam A Coming up here. We'll have Kaye's casual Corner. But

618
00:47:07.119 --> 00:47:09.960
first I want you to hear because, as Ben Maller always says, the

619
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:15.000
real story is in the losing locker
room, and the Clippers definitely lost this

620
00:47:15.039 --> 00:47:17.559
one. Who was a rough one. There was loss of the season,

621
00:47:17.639 --> 00:47:22.039
but I wouldn't say rock bottom or
anything for this team. That was when

622
00:47:22.079 --> 00:47:25.519
they lost to a Denver team.
Without three of their main guys. This

623
00:47:25.599 --> 00:47:30.119
is a team that has still won
nine of their last eleven games, and

624
00:47:30.199 --> 00:47:35.440
it's somewhat understandable. First game back
from a long road trip you're taking on

625
00:47:35.519 --> 00:47:38.599
Boston, they were hot. Last
game, they remained hot. I don't

626
00:47:38.599 --> 00:47:43.000
want to make too many excuses,
but I'm not going to. I'm not

627
00:47:43.039 --> 00:47:45.320
gonna panic too much either or say
this is sky is falling time for this

628
00:47:45.400 --> 00:47:51.159
Clippers team. Kawhi comes back healthy, they handle their business against they struggling

629
00:47:51.239 --> 00:47:54.239
Charlotte Hornets team on Tuesday. It's
all good, But here was PG thirteen

630
00:47:54.440 --> 00:47:59.119
in the locker room talking with the
media post game. Also, room were

631
00:47:59.199 --> 00:48:02.039
at which this team shoots threes?
How hard or difficult was it to run

632
00:48:02.079 --> 00:48:08.199
them off at three point line?
Uh? Extremely difficult? How so they

633
00:48:08.320 --> 00:48:15.440
shot the ball? Well, you
know the team that is uh confident that's

634
00:48:15.440 --> 00:48:20.320
shooting it, and uh yeah,
they ain't pass shots up. Well,

635
00:48:20.360 --> 00:48:22.559
I know, TIS talk so many
times about it doesn't really care where you

636
00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:24.719
guys die, usually turning teams the
best shot. But when the teams like

637
00:48:24.760 --> 00:48:29.199
shooting Batman three point ten, does
it start to all the way you guys

638
00:48:29.199 --> 00:48:30.880
think about? How do you warn
the office, like, do we need

639
00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:35.039
to start shooting three just to play
catch up? Nah? We stuck with

640
00:48:35.079 --> 00:48:39.320
the same offense we've been playing.
They just you know, that'sh that's just

641
00:48:39.320 --> 00:48:45.679
how they play. Wouldn't say it
necessarily caused by the fist, but you

642
00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:49.480
saftly a team at the time.
This was a tough week defensively for this

643
00:48:49.679 --> 00:48:52.000
entire team. Alright, Obviously you
guys had a good start to the church.

644
00:48:52.079 --> 00:48:54.519
But and the end of the way, did how do you use next

645
00:48:54.519 --> 00:48:59.400
week to re establish uh the defense? Good question? Uh, Well,

646
00:48:59.400 --> 00:49:06.639
hopefully we be you know, back
healthy and we just try to see what

647
00:49:06.679 --> 00:49:09.880
takeaways from the last two games and
go from there. Well, it'd be

648
00:49:09.920 --> 00:49:14.639
tough to not let these two games
derail you. I mean, you guys

649
00:49:14.639 --> 00:49:16.599
have made such a great progress.
Yeah, we're a great spot. We

650
00:49:16.960 --> 00:49:21.880
won now I leading up to the
two losses. It's the NBA. You

651
00:49:21.960 --> 00:49:25.519
know, every teamam that's gonna be
a challenge. We played to the better

652
00:49:25.559 --> 00:49:32.360
teams in the NBA. Doesn't derail
from where we're headed out where we trying

653
00:49:32.360 --> 00:49:38.320
to get to, said, are
they speG Yeah? There he was a

654
00:49:38.519 --> 00:49:45.679
post game in the locker with various
reporters I like that positive spirits still high.

655
00:49:45.880 --> 00:49:49.599
Overall, this team has been doing
the right things. There's been good

656
00:49:49.639 --> 00:49:53.760
process. They are trending in the
right direction. They've still won fourteen of

657
00:49:53.920 --> 00:49:58.920
nineteen. You like to see it, and they have an opportunity. I

658
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:02.039
guess the next two ball cl at
home next week in Charlotte and in the

659
00:50:02.039 --> 00:50:06.679
Memphis Grizzlies, who do have John
Morant back. I understand, but some

660
00:50:07.320 --> 00:50:13.000
lesser competition overall can't overlook anyone though
right now, and the Clippers have to

661
00:50:13.039 --> 00:50:17.800
continue building good habits all right before
we get out of here. I'm not

662
00:50:17.840 --> 00:50:22.119
going to Vita zoobots now. Paul
George ended that so beautifully. Katie,

663
00:50:22.159 --> 00:50:25.679
what's up? I want to go
to casual Katie's corner who's not the biggest

664
00:50:25.679 --> 00:50:30.079
basketball fan and likes to ask me
some basketball for dummies like questions, and

665
00:50:30.119 --> 00:50:32.280
I think it's fun. Katie Newton, our producer here, what's up,

666
00:50:32.320 --> 00:50:36.559
Katie? Well, I guess I
was just gonna ask you a Christmas question,

667
00:50:36.639 --> 00:50:38.239
but you can do that too.
Whatever we know, we can deflect

668
00:50:38.239 --> 00:50:43.280
from this Clippers game, Don't get
me wrong. I mean in the modern

669
00:50:43.480 --> 00:50:46.079
day of basketball, I guess when
was the last time someone broke the glass?

670
00:50:46.239 --> 00:50:50.000
Is that a thing that actually happens? Ooh, like dunk so hard

671
00:50:50.039 --> 00:50:54.719
and I mean shack pulled down the
rim a few different times. I think

672
00:50:54.920 --> 00:51:00.679
Zion did it once. In terms
of actually breaking the plexiglass, that's a

673
00:51:00.719 --> 00:51:05.320
lot harder to do now than it
was back in the eighties. There's a

674
00:51:05.360 --> 00:51:10.280
famous clip of Jordan at a Nike
basketball camp dunking, ripping down the rim

675
00:51:10.400 --> 00:51:15.840
and the glass just shattering like it
is NBA jam on all his defenders while

676
00:51:15.840 --> 00:51:20.239
he doesn't get touched by the glass, but everyone else got scraped up and

677
00:51:20.280 --> 00:51:24.360
cut. It's kind of an incredible
underrated play at NBA history. So I

678
00:51:24.360 --> 00:51:28.840
don't know if that's a deflection on
my answer because I can't remember. You

679
00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:31.079
know, I didn't figure it happened
a lot outside of like video games.

680
00:51:31.159 --> 00:51:37.880
I've played NBA Street a lot,
so you know, oh which volume GameCube?

681
00:51:38.280 --> 00:51:43.840
Katie's casual video game knowledge as well? Here you don't remember the volume?

682
00:51:43.880 --> 00:51:45.800
It was more fun than just the
NBA is doctor j on the cover?

683
00:51:46.079 --> 00:51:51.639
Do you have the old ABA?
Probably the first version? Okay,

684
00:51:51.639 --> 00:51:53.840
okay, fair enough, great job
today, Katie. Before we get out

685
00:51:53.840 --> 00:51:58.480
of here, I do want to
thank the Clippers organization, Ralph Lahler,
