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

4
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:19.480
Breaking down today's action with the pre
and post game voice. If you're La

5
00:00:19.559 --> 00:00:24.000
Clippers, They're locking in every game, every night, Adam Osland, the

6
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:29.320
Clippers come through late. They win
one twenty eight to one seventeen over the

7
00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:34.679
OKC Thunder. Here at Crypto dot
Com Arena, welcome into your postgame show.

8
00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:37.679
I'm at am Oslin. Coming up, we'll have clipperstock on AMPI seventy

9
00:00:37.799 --> 00:00:41.920
LA Sports plus second half highlights,
your postgame box scoring more. But first

10
00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:47.759
were rejoined by your radio voice of
the Clippers in Carlojmenez. After Paul George

11
00:00:47.759 --> 00:00:53.280
goes for a season high thirty eight
and eighteen points in the fourth quarter where

12
00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:57.159
he had ten in the final three
minutes when the Clippers were down by one,

13
00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:00.399
and then just made it look easy
when it was closing time. Carlo,

14
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:04.680
I mean talk about delivering late.
Paul George finished this game for the

15
00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:08.480
Clippers, an offense that was stagging
an OKC that was going on a run

16
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:12.000
at him. They brought it to
within one, took a lead late after

17
00:01:12.040 --> 00:01:15.120
the Clippers were up by as many
as eleven, and Paul George said,

18
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:19.400
I've had enough of this or coming
home with a win. And he could

19
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:25.200
not do anything wrong on the offensive
end. He was excellent for the Clippers.

20
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:30.200
He continued to attack offensively the dribble
three straight away and we talked about

21
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:33.879
it at him. It started in
the first quarter. It was the first

22
00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:37.359
quarter that set the tone for the
Clippers. Both teams were hot from the

23
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:41.040
outside. We knew going into this
one two top teams in the league.

24
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.920
When it came to three point shooting. They delivered tonight. The Clippers were

25
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:48.120
just a little bit better, as
they do lead the league now over the

26
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:53.159
OKC Thunder from the outside twenty of
forty three and by my count, they

27
00:01:53.359 --> 00:02:00.239
ended the game on a fourteen to
two run Carlow after the OKC Thunder took

28
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:02.680
that brief one point lead with three
three seven left off the j dub three

29
00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:06.719
pointer, it was all Clippers of
the rest of the way. They were

30
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.639
excellent at finishing the deal late.
They continue to be a great clutch team.

31
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:15.439
Adam since the start of December.
Clippers are seven and two in clutch

32
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:20.800
this season under five minutes with under
a five point difference. The Clippers were

33
00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:25.120
great in this one, and I
think it's so different than okc's last loss

34
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:28.560
last night to the Lakers, because
you look at the stats with a thunder

35
00:02:28.680 --> 00:02:31.439
and you look up and down this
list and j Dove gives you twenty five

36
00:02:31.479 --> 00:02:35.680
again. Lou Dort's got nineteen on
five threes, the second most he's hit

37
00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:39.319
this season five for six was Isaiah
Joe off the bench with fifteen points.

38
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:44.319
They got production from everywhere, and
the Clippers affected their stars, Chet Holmgren

39
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.800
two for ten, Shane Gildas,
Alexander six for sixteen, and it's not

40
00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:50.520
like they had many open shots at
him. They were combined eight for twenty

41
00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:55.479
six because the Clippers played a fantastic
defense without their star of Eatsa Zubats on

42
00:02:55.520 --> 00:03:00.000
the defensive end, impressive stuff.
I thought, collectively get ten blocks in

43
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.840
this game, and there should have
been one more. I think that goldtad.

44
00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:07.919
The Clippers came together after getting the
news earlier that Aviza Zubas would be

45
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:12.919
out for at least four weeks.
Will be reevaluated with that calf strain.

46
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:16.479
But this team collectively came together and
did it as a squad. It wasn't

47
00:03:16.599 --> 00:03:21.879
just Mason Plumbley. It wasn't just
Daniel Tice. Terrence Man was great on

48
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:25.159
the interior, Kawhi Leonard with the
block laid on Shay Gilgess, Alexander.

49
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:30.120
They were contesting at the basket and
to me, that was the difference in

50
00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:34.400
the ballgame late yew five different players
recorded blocks in this one, Adam.

51
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:38.319
You talk about a team effort.
That is a team effort for this Clippers

52
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:43.240
team. The offensive rebounding late was
excellent. They finished with twelve offensive rebounds,

53
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:47.360
Adam. That turned into twenty one
points tonight. That's huge for this

54
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:52.120
Clippers team to find that kind of
production on the offensive glass. It was

55
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:55.159
a gritty win and wasn't perfect,
but man, what a motivating win for

56
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:59.960
this team going into four days off
to get this one at home again,

57
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:03.199
it's a great thunder squad. You
feel like there's a huge confidence boost.

58
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:08.360
Obviously, the news of Vitza Zubats
is so it's such a bummer, right.

59
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:11.680
You don't ever want your stoning center, your iron men to be out

60
00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:15.159
but I think this win shows the
Clippers that they don't have to miss a

61
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:16.680
beat just because Big Zoo's not going
to be with them. Yeah, they

62
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:20.480
didn't let that deflate the team.
They used it as a rallying cry in

63
00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:25.560
this game. You mentioned how many
guys had blocks and contributed on the defensive

64
00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:28.959
end. That was one of the
best efforts. And I know the OKC

65
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:31.680
thunder still hit sixteen three pointers and
shot fifty percent from the field. They're

66
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:36.600
that good defensively. I still think
this was one of the better efforts by

67
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:42.399
the Clippers overall in this game because
they didn't have a Vitza Zubats, And

68
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:46.160
this was the first time in the
two to one three era to my knowledge,

69
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:48.519
that they've been able to win a
game where they had Paul George and

70
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:53.199
Kawhi but they didn't have a Vitza
Zubats. They were zero to four in

71
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:57.199
those situations coming into this one tonight. They get their first victory and they

72
00:04:57.279 --> 00:05:00.879
do it together. It just shows
you how this team is able to find

73
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:04.439
opportunities to get it done later.
I think James Harden was great. Eight

74
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:09.279
assists, sixteen points, he hit
down he knocked down four threes, but

75
00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:11.920
you think about Daniel Tice. I
mean, this guy wasn't on this roster.

76
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:15.079
This is somebody who had no one
had in that radar. Mason Plumley

77
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:16.800
goes down in New York, all
of a sudden, he becomes a Clipper,

78
00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:19.720
all of a sudden. At him. He's a key player in this

79
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:24.000
team for the next four months,
for the future. I mean, he

80
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:28.920
was excellent tonight. Three blocks.
He blocked everything, including our connection with

81
00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:31.720
him post game. That's how good
Daniel Tye was in this ball game.

82
00:05:32.040 --> 00:05:35.240
We talked about it. He's not
afraid to get postered. He's not afraid

83
00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:40.680
to have too much pride to not
contest shots at the basket. That makes

84
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:43.439
him special. And to your point, you brought it up during the break.

85
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.040
I think it's fantastic. I'm gonna
bring it up fifty times to night

86
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.319
here on Clippers Talk. But Okay, Mason Plumbley didn't get injured against the

87
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:55.560
Knicks. They don't have Daniel Tice
for this situation where now they're without a

88
00:05:55.639 --> 00:06:00.240
Beats Zubats. So maybe a blessing
in disguise, Maybe the basketball gods we're

89
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:01.639
looking out for the Clippers in some
ways. Yeah, I mean, you're

90
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:04.759
gonna have injuries throughout the year.
You just hope you have guys who step

91
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:09.279
up after the fact, and the
Clippers don't. If Mason Plumley doesn't go

92
00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:12.040
down in New York, they don't
have those guys. They're right now sitting

93
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.439
in the hole with Daniel Tye maybe
on another team after asking up to receive

94
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:21.000
a buyout in the last game or
from Indiana. So for the Clippers at

95
00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:25.720
him a big time win, a
fun one. And Paul George, if

96
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:30.279
there wasn't a bigger show to say, hey, I'm extension eligible to Lawrence

97
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:32.079
Frank, I don't know what tonight
was. That was fun to watch.

98
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:35.120
Those two have both been vocal they
want to get it done. I hope

99
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:40.680
the Clippers can soon because this two
one three connection if it keeps continuing.

100
00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:45.160
Look out at Remember these guys haven't
played that many games together now, they're

101
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:48.839
just really starting to gel this season
with having played initially I think it was

102
00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:53.959
twenty three straight. That was the
longest stretch of time you've had Kawhi Leonard

103
00:06:54.120 --> 00:06:57.959
and Paul George on the court together. And it's no surprise that the Clippers

104
00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:01.160
have been this good and are now
twenty six in fourteen, they've had more

105
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:05.800
availability with their two superstars, and
Paul George certainly made himself available in the

106
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:10.759
fourth quarter he took the Clippers home. They go on to win one twenty

107
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:15.160
eight to one seventeen here over the
OKC thunder Clippers. Next game, believe

108
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:17.639
it or not, it's like another
All Star break. They got four days

109
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:24.120
off. Next game right back here
on Sunday, twelve thirty tip Clippers and

110
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:28.360
Brooklyn Nets. And they need a
little get back after Brooklyn took them down

111
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:30.480
on that road trip, or Mason
Pumley was hurt. The Net's got the

112
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:33.720
Clippers when they were a wounded animal. They're a different beast right now.

113
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:38.959
Look out a Carlo Jimenez will be
on the call at twelve thirty. We'll

114
00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:43.399
have your pregame show starting at eleven
thirty. Carlo, my friend, great

115
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:47.399
call is always with the family in
attendance. Love it. Let's do it

116
00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:50.720
again on Sunday. When mom's got
the headset on, Adam, you gotta

117
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:55.879
crank it up a little bit,
Mama. Those best Clippers win and show

118
00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:59.800
their best tonight with a one twenty
eight to one seventeen victory. Over the

119
00:07:59.879 --> 00:08:03.800
u OKAC thunder four post game right
here on the Los Angeles Clippers Audio Net,

120
00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:11.439
floating Clippers fully loaded with Clippers fans. This is LA Clippers basketball.

121
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:16.720
You're listening to the LA Clippers on
the LA Clippers Audio Network. Clippers win

122
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:20.680
one seven scenes with a thunder.
Here at Crypto dot Com Arena, I'm

123
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:28.360
an a Ozlet welcome back into your
postgame show. Clippers get another victory.

124
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:35.039
They have won nine of their last
eleven now and seventeen make it eighteen of

125
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:39.840
their last twenty two. I want
to say I will double check that as

126
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:45.360
I always do, but it felt
like a playoff environment tonight at Crypto dot

127
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:48.440
Com Arena, Clippernation. Give yourself
a pat on the back for this victory.

128
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.240
I don't know if the Clippers pull
through in the fourth quarter like they

129
00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:56.240
did without you. Let's talk about
that third quarter though. First, the

130
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:01.240
Clippers let at the half sixty five
to sixty one one. After closing out

131
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:03.440
that second quarter the right way,
I want to say it wasn't a mere

132
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:11.000
coffee three pointer near the end of
the half that got the Clippers up by

133
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:13.759
four. When it was back and
forth. They led by five after the

134
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:18.559
first quarter. Okay Se did outscore
them in the second quarter by one,

135
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:20.600
but the Clippers were up sixty five
to sixty one heading into the third.

136
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:24.480
Paul George only had ten points in
the first half. Believe it or not,

137
00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:28.120
well he would match that in the
third quarter alone. Bounce fast to

138
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:31.080
George after helm with seven to shoot, sizing up, shade down the left

139
00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:35.320
alley, steps back, pulls up, puts it in Pg's thirteen with some

140
00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:37.080
tricks, gives it up to George. Turns the quarter with five to shoot.

141
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:39.559
Flipper's got and get busied. George
into the pain looking for a foul,

142
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:43.480
flips it up on the right hand
rainbows in PG. Thirteen. That

143
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:48.039
is tough. Leonard bounced fast,
horning kicks at George open right corner.

144
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:54.919
Three oh yeah, Pg thirteen It's
gotten seventeen plumblin at the helm looking for

145
00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:58.799
George backdoor five pg raising to the
rim the harm and a chance for one.

146
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:05.159
Paul George with ten points in the
third quarter. Clippers led by ten

147
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:11.759
heading into the fourth as they outscored
the OKC Thunder thirty four to twenty eight

148
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:16.799
in the third period and then in
a three well with three minutes left in

149
00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:22.000
the ball game. Late, Clippers
found themselves down one after a j dub

150
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:28.399
three pointer that was a ridiculous shot
after Terrence Man had blocked in Isaiah Joel

151
00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:31.559
three. They get the offensive rebound
and end up knocking down a three pointer.

152
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:37.080
Anyways, it was unbelievably bad luck, and the Clippers were able to

153
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:41.000
overcome it. Why because Paul George
down the stretch was the best player on

154
00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:45.799
the floor. George stowed away team
hine twenty points left wing in front of

155
00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:50.159
the bench for OKC. Pulls out
from the base, signed rainbows in part

156
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:56.080
an extra pass. George open left
corner three, pulls up HEYG thirteen with

157
00:10:56.360 --> 00:11:01.960
twenty five. George dances down Broadway, flips it up in hey G thirteen,

158
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:05.519
pulls out the d I wind kid. Sarah's man left the logo and

159
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:09.200
his arm branked me on yellow shoes
left watch George drowning in white jerseys,

160
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:13.559
goes up, gets fouled. Plus
they'll finish. George my hot hand in

161
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:20.120
the right wing thirty points, shakes
and baits a triple, bottoms a stream

162
00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:24.799
to the heavens. George trimp downtown. He's gotten thirty three. Clippers lead

163
00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:31.639
by six kicks A George right wing
a three nylon Clippers lead one twenty six,

164
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:37.879
one seventeen. He's unconscious. Shan
Okaseye right to Laft. He lost

165
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:46.519
the basketball Georgia Steel with a runway
a euro A revers down. Paul George

166
00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:50.840
put this game on ice as he
was ice cold in the fourth with eighteen

167
00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:54.120
points. Cold Blooded had ten of
them in the last three minutes. The

168
00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:58.559
Clippers went on a fourteen to two
run to end the game. They win

169
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:05.960
once t eight to one to seventeen
over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Clippers got

170
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:09.720
four days off now until Sunday.
Right back here at Crypto, They'll be

171
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:15.480
taken on the Brooklyn Nets. What
a way to have a little mini vacation,

172
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:20.840
although I'm sure Coach Lee will have
them locked in and practicing very soon.

173
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:24.759
Here more postgame coming up next.
After the Clippers win by eleven over

174
00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:28.480
the OKC Thunder, you're listening to
the Los Angeles Clippers Audio Network. The

175
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:33.559
LA Clippers continue their hunt for a
LARRYO. B. They still want to

176
00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:37.240
get that LARRYO. B. Don't
miss a moment all season longed. This

177
00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:41.279
is the LA Clippers Audio Network.
Clippers win one, twenty eight to one

178
00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:45.480
to seventeen over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Here at Crypto dot com, Marena,

179
00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:50.840
welcome back into your postgame show.
I'm Adam Oslinny. What a game.

180
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:56.919
Unbelievable, one of the best victories
of the season for your Los Angeles

181
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:01.080
Clippers. They get thirty eight from
PG thirteen that was a season high.

182
00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:07.600
He had an eighteen point fourth quarter. The Clippers went on a fourteen to

183
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:11.360
two runs to end this thing.
Paul George had his fingerprints all over it.

184
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:15.679
As Brian Seman would say, Clippers
end up shooting fifty four percent from

185
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:20.120
the floor, forty seven percent from
the outside. They knocked down twenty of

186
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:24.600
their forty three takes from distance.
They are the best three point shooting team

187
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:30.440
in the league. Without of Vitza
Zoobots, Mason Plumby went five for five

188
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:35.720
with fourteen points, five boards,
couple of assists, and three blocks.

189
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:41.320
Daniel Tice with three blocks himself.
He had nine four of six shooting for

190
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:46.519
him knocked down a three pointer trying
to make up for the production without having

191
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:50.240
Aviza Zubots tonight. They were able
to do so in a game where the

192
00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:56.000
Clippers had just ten turnovers. Had
three in the first quarter, just ten

193
00:13:56.159 --> 00:14:03.840
in the ballgame. Okay see,
but at the half they had just three.

194
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:07.440
The Clippers started to turn them over
in that fourth quarter or ok see

195
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:11.919
double there are six turnovers heading into
the final twelve minutes. They had six

196
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:16.960
turnovers in the fourth. That's the
ballgame. That and PG thirteen going nuclear.

197
00:14:18.399 --> 00:14:22.039
Kawhi Leonard My favorite play of the
season the block he had on shake

198
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:26.279
Gilges Alexander. I haven't seen anyone
do that when they're beat off the dribble

199
00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:31.600
by SGA, it's always a bucket. Kawhi recovered and blocked him. He

200
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:35.919
had sixteen points, just six of
ten shooting. Only need one point from

201
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:39.799
him in the fourth quarter. The
Clippers come through an unbelievable performance on a

202
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:45.600
day where they find out that a
Vista Zubats will be out for at least

203
00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:48.360
the next four weeks. Well,
we have a moment. Let's pause ten

218
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:03.879
your phone calls. You can also
get to me. I follow out of

219
00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:08.000
May on X. We'll have I
think it's Chuck Mackler's turn to join from

220
00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:12.919
Clips and Dip. We'll also hear
from Paul George postgame. And you're head

221
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:19.799
coach in Tron Lou, who I
thought made a brilliant move at around the

222
00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:26.879
six minute mark of the fourth quarter. It's not easy when you have an

223
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.159
embarrassment of riches, when you have
so many guys that you can turn to

224
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:37.279
to bring off the bench, because
you'll always be second guest. And I

225
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:42.200
was wondering at first when at the
six forty eight mark he brought in Terrence

226
00:16:42.279 --> 00:16:48.519
Mann for Norman Powell. And I
thought to myself, Man, Norman Powell,

227
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:52.919
he might be the best fourth quarter
player in the league in a tight

228
00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:57.519
ballgame like this. It was one
o eight, one oh four Clippers,

229
00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:07.640
and he may the move. Norman
Powell is shooting fifty eight percent from the

230
00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:12.160
field in fourth quarters, He's shooting
fifty five percent from three. You gotta

231
00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:21.079
have some hootspa to make that move
to bring in Terrence Man. But then

232
00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:23.799
I realized the genius of coach Lou. Of course I was a little bit

233
00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:29.720
slow on the uptick. You got
a four point lead. Terrence Man has

234
00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:33.960
had a great ball game. He
hasn't just been good on the perimeter with

235
00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:41.839
his defense, but also at the
rim. Terrence Man was contesting shots.

236
00:17:42.279 --> 00:17:48.440
They don't have Aviatza Zubats He's out
for at least four weeks. He'll be

237
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:53.319
reevaluated then with that calf strain.
Defensively, they got to do it collectively

238
00:17:53.440 --> 00:18:00.000
right now, Mason Plumley and Daniel
Tye alone cannot make up for the law

239
00:18:00.759 --> 00:18:03.200
a big Zoo. They can't.
He's the third best room protector in the

240
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:10.200
league. But what I saw from
Terrence Man and the block he had on

241
00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:17.079
chet Holmgren after plumbly bid on the
fake in the second half was incredible.

242
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:22.200
It wasn't just the two big men
of the Clippers who combined for six blocks,

243
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:27.480
Daniel Tice with three, Mason Plumber
with three. You had Terrence Man

244
00:18:27.680 --> 00:18:33.599
getting two, James Harden a block, and Kawhi Leonard with what I'm gonna

245
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:41.640
say is my play of the year
so far. Not many can hang with

246
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:45.279
Shay Gilgess Alexander. In fact,
I haven't seen anyone do this this season.

247
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:49.440
When he beats his man off the
gerbil, it is a rap.

248
00:18:49.920 --> 00:18:57.400
He's getting the bucket, And somehow, some way, Kawhi Leonard in a

249
00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:03.480
two point game, was able to
recover and block shake Gildess Alexander at the

250
00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:07.319
three to zho eight mark of the
fourth quarter, with the Clippers holding onto

251
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:11.799
a slim one seventeen to one to
fifteen lead. That's my play of the

252
00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:18.000
year. They held SGA to just
six of sixteen shooting guy might win the

253
00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:22.160
MVP. He's at least gonna be
in the conversation. He had just nineteen.

254
00:19:22.599 --> 00:19:27.000
He didn't score in the fourth quarter. I know they were on the

255
00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:30.039
second half of a back to back. They've also, I think been the

256
00:19:30.079 --> 00:19:34.160
best in the league in winning those
games. Making adjustments. They got young

257
00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:41.400
legs, they looked fresh. They
were attacking the fourth and the Clippers withstood

258
00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:45.960
the challenge. Not only did they
withstanding from a team that has the second

259
00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:52.759
best net rating and clutch time in
the OKC Thunder on the season, they

260
00:19:52.880 --> 00:19:59.759
dismantled them in the last three minutes
after Okase all of a sudden goes up

261
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:03.960
by one when the Clippers had led
by thirteen, were up by ten heading

262
00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:10.480
into the fourth and win three thirty
seven left. After an extremely unfortunate play

263
00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:17.279
goes against the Clippers, RAN's man
blocked Isaiah Joe who on the night after

264
00:20:17.359 --> 00:20:22.880
going zero six against the Lakers last
night, from three, he was five

265
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:27.039
for five. Man blocks him at
the three forty two mark in a two

266
00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:33.440
point game. Isaiah Joe gets it
back and finds Jay Dubb Jalen Williams for

267
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:37.240
a three pointer, who knocks it
down and the Clippers are down one and

268
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:42.519
one fifteen, one fourteen. That
great defensive play didn't get rewarded. Okay,

269
00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:49.160
see Thunders still knocked it down,
but then Paul George would get a

270
00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:55.920
little fallaway far side short corner,
Clippers back up one. He gets the

271
00:20:56.000 --> 00:21:00.720
and one puts him up by two. As he wasn't afraid of attacking,

272
00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:06.240
even when at times guys were shying
away because they knew Jet chet Holmgren was

273
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:11.640
lurking. He's unbelievable. He and
Victor Wemenyama are changing basketball with how much

274
00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:17.359
ground they can cover and how skilled
they are and how they can score at

275
00:21:17.359 --> 00:21:22.839
all three levels. It's incredible to
watch that Rookie of the Year battle if

276
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:29.400
they go by record. Obviously the
OKC thunder are much better there, but

277
00:21:29.559 --> 00:21:33.000
Jet has been so impressive, and
tonight he just went two of ten and

278
00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:38.759
only had one block, but the
amount of shots that he redirected, the

279
00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:42.440
amount of times the Clippers in the
fourth quarter went into the paint and couldn't

280
00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:48.119
put up a shot because they knew
he was right there. It is otherworldly,

281
00:21:49.279 --> 00:21:53.039
to say the least. But after
PG comes through with the N one,

282
00:21:56.200 --> 00:22:02.559
then they get a stop as Kawhi
Leonard blocks Sga. Kawhi gets foult

283
00:22:02.599 --> 00:22:06.720
on the other end, but only
goes one for two. The Clippers were

284
00:22:06.839 --> 00:22:11.319
fourteen of twenty three from the charity
stripe. They were missing Gimmey's freebies.

285
00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:17.799
They only shot sixty one percent from
the charity stripe. In a game like

286
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:22.759
this, you would have thought that
would have come back to haunt that nah.

287
00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:26.119
They got another miss from Sga on
the other end, when this time

288
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:30.119
he was matched up against James Harden. They got the mismatch, They got

289
00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:33.480
what they wanted. Harden, for
the most part, made it a tough

290
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:38.200
shot, a little fallaway on the
right elbow. PG gets the rebound,

291
00:22:38.319 --> 00:22:42.440
brings it up the court, puts
it up from distance long three pointer,

292
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:45.640
and the Clippers are up one twenty
one to one fifteen. Okay, so

293
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:49.519
he's not going away. J dub
knocks down a cluss jumper. It's one

294
00:22:49.640 --> 00:22:53.079
twenty one, one seventeen. But
then James Harden, who had just missed

295
00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:59.559
a floater, went back to it
and got it to go Clippers back up

296
00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:07.359
by and then it was about to
be over as lou Dort tried to draw

297
00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:15.240
a foul on Mason Plumbley in the
near side corner where he made this unnatural

298
00:23:15.319 --> 00:23:21.799
basketball movement to his left unnecessarily to
try to draw contact. He did,

299
00:23:22.599 --> 00:23:26.039
but the refs didn't fall for it. You gotta give him credit. That's

300
00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:32.519
not an easy call in real time, they said immediately it was an offensive

301
00:23:32.519 --> 00:23:37.880
foul. Okay See challenged to no
avail, and Paul George then sticks another

302
00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:45.160
three oh and then he ripped it
from SGA and went the other way for

303
00:23:45.240 --> 00:23:55.039
the reverse dunk. Play Station P
podcast p what a performance eighteen of his

304
00:23:55.119 --> 00:24:00.440
thirty eight in the fourth quarter and
took the Clippers home. He had ten

305
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:07.119
points in the last three minutes and
twenty one seconds, and the Clippers beat

306
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:11.799
one of the most clutch teams,
one of the most active teams, one

307
00:24:11.839 --> 00:24:17.880
of the most athletic teams that outside
of Denver, they scare me most in

308
00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:22.720
the West. And the Clippers win
tonight after they lost by nineteen without Kawhi

309
00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:29.559
Leonard in OKC in December one twenty
eight to one seventeen was your final.

310
00:24:29.680 --> 00:24:36.000
Let's start things off with Lenny in
Inglewood. Lenny, you're on Clippers stop

311
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:41.680
without a mazzle Man next to the
Denver Bro. First of all, we

312
00:24:41.799 --> 00:24:47.559
got a squad man. I mean
we really got a squad because for one

313
00:24:48.880 --> 00:24:52.599
James hard says on today where he
said he wants to retire to her and

314
00:24:53.359 --> 00:25:00.440
you can just fail. He just
feels the cooperation, he feels the they're

315
00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:03.119
on one accord man, And I'm
glad PG came through, Bro, because

316
00:25:03.160 --> 00:25:08.319
I was gonna load up on podcast
Pete and he came to he ca.

317
00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:12.680
You guys are always waiting like snipers
for podcast Pee. Where is this Tom

318
00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:17.119
Berenger on the phone. You just
wait for him to trip up. The

319
00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:21.880
guy had one bad game in Minnesota. We want a championship, Bro.

320
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:25.160
It has to be this year.
It has to be this year. We

321
00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:29.480
all know that it has to be
this year because John is coming next year.

322
00:25:30.359 --> 00:25:33.480
SGA. He's coming next year.
And here's the deal, I think

323
00:25:33.519 --> 00:25:36.640
we can. The only way we
get one next next year is if we

324
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:40.039
win one this year. That's that's
that's the only way I see it.

325
00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:42.920
So we we want one, man, Because here's the deal, Adam,

326
00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:45.759
We're not even to get a parade
out of it. We know that.

327
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:48.759
We just wanted. We just we
just want, we just want. We

328
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:52.480
just want to wait. They're gonna
take it from here to angle would to

329
00:25:52.519 --> 00:25:55.240
the end to it do if they
win, well yeah, well let's let's

330
00:25:55.279 --> 00:25:57.240
let's hold. But you know,
these are the Lakers are gonna need some

331
00:25:57.279 --> 00:26:00.279
mental health services because they're not going
They're not gonna, they're not gonna like

332
00:26:00.359 --> 00:26:03.559
us at all. But I just, like I said, Man, just

333
00:26:03.599 --> 00:26:11.079
a really good win tonight, man, because they couldnot. They really they

334
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:14.839
realized the importance of this game.
And you're right, Kylu had some master

335
00:26:14.960 --> 00:26:18.640
strokes in terms of coaching, man, and and Plumbly just stepping up.

336
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:26.000
I'm so happy to see him,
Man, just coming this. This was

337
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:29.400
the game he needed. We need
him on the team, no doubt.

338
00:26:30.119 --> 00:26:33.480
And I know I know they're they're
they're talking about some tinkering, but no,

339
00:26:33.079 --> 00:26:37.640
leave Plumbly Man. We need that
dude. We need that dude.

340
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:42.240
But all all around, Man,
just to satisfying thoroughly good win. And

341
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:47.400
it's what this what championships teams do? They don't go down two against the

342
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:51.759
good teams. Man, let let
uh okay see go back to okay see

343
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:55.200
two. We couldn't do that,
man, See it have brought me a

344
00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:57.079
lot of doubting. But they did
what they're supposed to do to handle business.

345
00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:02.000
And man, let's let's just go. Let's just keep marching forward.

346
00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:04.680
Man, all right, bro,
talk to you later. Great phone call

347
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:10.000
is always letting appreciate you. Clippers
win one twenty eight to one seventeen over

348
00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:12.759
the OKC Thunder. They tied the
season series up at a game apiece.

349
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:18.000
One more left to be played could
be crucial, critical in the standings.

350
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:21.359
Clippers just gained a game on them. They're only a game back of them.

351
00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:25.440
Now we'll take a quick time out. We'll come back here at Crypto

352
00:27:25.480 --> 00:27:32.480
dot com arena. After the Clippers
just torched OKAC in the final three minutes

353
00:27:33.039 --> 00:27:37.359
with a fourteen to two run,
where Paul George had ten of those points,

354
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:41.440
eighteen in the fourth, thirty eight
in the game, a season high

355
00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:45.319
after he just had thirty seven against
Memphis in between these two yeah and off

356
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:49.319
night against Minnesota. I think he
made up for it. My player to

357
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:56.319
watch more Clippers dock next year on
five to seventy LA Sports. LA Clippers

358
00:27:56.400 --> 00:28:00.839
basketball is on the two to one
three Era continues. You're listening to the

359
00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:06.119
LA Clippers on the LA Clippers Audio
Network. Oh. C's not gonna like

360
00:28:06.160 --> 00:28:12.200
this this track coming my way.
He wants this song for Lakers victories.

361
00:28:12.319 --> 00:28:17.519
Nah, they got theirs last night
against Okay. See the Clippers went tonight

362
00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:21.480
in dramatic fashion. Here at Crypto
dot Com Areno. One twenty eight to

363
00:28:21.559 --> 00:28:27.680
one, seventeen over the thunder and
SGA with amazing performances down the stretch by

364
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:34.640
two point three. Kawhi with the
block, Paul George with the eighteen points

365
00:28:34.640 --> 00:28:41.359
on the fourth quarter, the steal
on SGA. They made him look damn

366
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:48.000
near uncomfortable. I haven't really seen
that much. Give credit to Terrence Mann

367
00:28:48.119 --> 00:28:53.440
and coach LUs sticking with him in
the fourth instead of Norman Powell, who

368
00:28:53.480 --> 00:28:57.839
was having an off night offensively two
of ten, two of seven from the

369
00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:02.599
outside. But I've seen that plenty
of times. And then he turns it

370
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:07.160
around and has a huge fourth quarter. Coach Lou said, no, we're

371
00:29:07.160 --> 00:29:11.119
playing defense. Terrence Man has played
great. It was the right thing.

372
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:18.240
Ooh, the professors in the building
well and one mixtape tour type game going

373
00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:23.160
on. Postgame here at Crypto dot
com arena, the Professor Paul George has

374
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:29.400
handles like that at six' nine
and those step back threes are as nasty

375
00:29:29.559 --> 00:29:33.240
as they come. Eight six,
six nine, eight seven two five seventy

376
00:29:33.319 --> 00:29:36.359
eight six six nine, eight seven
two five seventy is the phone number.

377
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:41.200
Let's go to Sean in Inglewood or
maybe in Shytown right now. Sean,

378
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:44.920
what's up? You're on? Clippers? Stop with Adam Moslin? Long time,

379
00:29:45.160 --> 00:29:48.240
Sean? Where you been? Hey
been traveling man? And uh,

380
00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:52.119
you know I'm out here in twenty
below, but you know, still loving

381
00:29:52.160 --> 00:29:57.039
my Clippers. Can you feel the
heel? Can you feel it emanating from

382
00:29:57.119 --> 00:30:02.000
Crypto dot com Arena with this three
point shooting Clippers go twenty or forty three

383
00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:06.000
from distance? Oh? Man,
wish I was there. I can't tell

384
00:30:06.000 --> 00:30:08.440
you I wish I was there.
But I want to say a couple of

385
00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:14.160
things. First of all, the
composure of this team this year. There's

386
00:30:14.240 --> 00:30:18.000
been four or five games where it
looked like the lights were going to go

387
00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:22.119
out on them in the fourth quarter
and the other team had the momentum and

388
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:26.119
they just stayed with it and said, no, we're better and we're not

389
00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:29.680
going to make any dumb mistakes and
we're going to win the game. They

390
00:30:29.799 --> 00:30:36.640
overcame about what missed about fourteen free
throws and they didn't didn't really you know,

391
00:30:36.720 --> 00:30:40.119
get him. And they just kept
going back and you know, just

392
00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:42.799
kept staying with what they came to
do. And another thing, if you

393
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:47.720
think about it, you know,
Paul George is getting a lot of flack

394
00:30:47.839 --> 00:30:52.359
about the trade with Shay. You
know, I know that. I hear

395
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:56.200
it on Twitter all the time.
You think he hasn't remembered that it was

396
00:30:56.200 --> 00:31:02.160
a little something ext re for SGA
tonight. So think about it like this,

397
00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:07.640
what's nineteen times two thirty eight?
Paul George had thirty eight and you

398
00:31:08.119 --> 00:31:12.599
Shaye only had nineteen. You think
Paul took it personal. I know he

399
00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:18.559
did. And so basically that was
some good revenge for Paul, and I

400
00:31:18.599 --> 00:31:22.680
think he needs to stay hungry like
that. It was just a really great

401
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:27.920
win, especially when Kawhi wasn't you
know, the didn't have his cape tonight,

402
00:31:29.079 --> 00:31:32.799
but that's okay. Others had their
cape. So we just have a

403
00:31:32.839 --> 00:31:37.799
team where hey, and especially in
the last few minutes. The Superstars took

404
00:31:37.839 --> 00:31:41.359
over in the last three or four
minutes on this team, and everybody made

405
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:45.519
a player to It was a beautiful
game. The Kawhi Leonard blocked to me,

406
00:31:47.759 --> 00:31:52.039
that is a cape. That block
is as big as any shot made,

407
00:31:52.079 --> 00:31:56.680
because you saved a layup against SGA. And if anybody had any doubt

408
00:31:57.319 --> 00:32:06.119
that Kawhi Leonard was still on all
World defensive player being able to recover on

409
00:32:06.160 --> 00:32:10.640
a drive from SGA going by you, that was insane, Sean. I

410
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:15.440
appreciate the phone call. I still
owe you tickets. Don't think I forgot

411
00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:22.519
about that, all right? Okay, maybe maybe he did forget eight six

412
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:27.279
six nine eight seven two five seventy
eight six six ninety eight seven two five

413
00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:30.359
seventy if you're remembers, though,
I still got him man in my word

414
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:36.440
always. I'm met am Oslin live
here at Crypto dot Com arena postgame as

415
00:32:36.440 --> 00:32:38.720
I just saw a three sixty dunk. I don't know who threw that down.

416
00:32:39.160 --> 00:32:43.359
Wasn't PG thirteen as he did in
the Dunk Contest, as he did

417
00:32:43.440 --> 00:32:47.400
in a half court setting last season
in that game against OKC right before he

418
00:32:47.480 --> 00:32:52.640
got hurt. He and Lou Dort
running into each other for a rebound.

419
00:32:52.359 --> 00:32:54.599
Well, a lot of connections,
a lot of threads, a lot of

420
00:32:54.640 --> 00:33:02.240
storylines between these two teams. Lou
Dort five of eight from distance. I

421
00:33:02.200 --> 00:33:07.160
think that's the second most three is
he's hitting the game this season. The

422
00:33:07.160 --> 00:33:15.319
Clippers took a real big punch and
the best shot from OKC and they're still

423
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:21.960
standing with the w Clipper Joe and
Westlake Village. What's up here on Clippers

424
00:33:21.960 --> 00:33:29.160
stop without Amaza, Hey Adams.
Man, it was like four minutes left,

425
00:33:29.319 --> 00:33:30.880
you know, they just took a
one point lead, and I just

426
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:35.000
started thinking, kind of like everyone
else, probably, man, here we

427
00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:39.640
go again. But then we stood
up. We met the challenge. Paul

428
00:33:39.680 --> 00:33:43.759
George went off and yeah, Kawhi, did he have the best shooting night.

429
00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:46.359
No, But at the same time
he came up with that huge block

430
00:33:46.799 --> 00:33:51.400
that was insane for us. Paul
George, I think he had like ten

431
00:33:51.440 --> 00:33:53.519
points to in the game. It
was awesome, man. It felt like

432
00:33:53.559 --> 00:33:58.599
a much needed win given we had
lost and then Timberwolves, and we'd been

433
00:33:58.759 --> 00:34:01.000
on such a good run the last
month and a half. It just feels

434
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:05.759
good, man, It just feels
good. Hey, enjoy it. You

435
00:34:05.880 --> 00:34:09.920
deserve it, and you got four
days off now to relish in this victory.

436
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:16.239
All right, I appreciate the fold
call. Joe and Westlake become a

437
00:34:16.280 --> 00:34:22.079
regular here, Jose in Downey.
You're on Clippers stop without a mauslim post

438
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:25.239
game after they win one forty eight
to one seventeen over a team now that

439
00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:29.920
just has a slim one game lead
over them in the Western Conference standings.

440
00:34:29.960 --> 00:34:32.039
I said it pregame. If you
want to climb up the ladder in the

441
00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:35.840
West, you gotta beat the teams
in front of you. Clippers did that

442
00:34:35.880 --> 00:34:38.559
tonight against Okay, see what's up, Hoose, Hey, Adam, how

443
00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:42.800
you doing? Yeah? I mean
a great, great win. I mean

444
00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:45.480
to get a bunch of them off
like that. In the end, you

445
00:34:45.480 --> 00:34:50.960
could have easily started taking taking these
ill advice shots, but no, it's

446
00:34:51.000 --> 00:34:52.679
up to the garis stay collected.
And I think that was that was a

447
00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:58.440
big thing. I heard that first
one of the callers in the beginning about

448
00:34:58.519 --> 00:35:02.800
ready to jump on on Paul George. I think I think I mentioned it

449
00:35:02.840 --> 00:35:07.119
to you before. I think he's
gonna he's gonna be the guy that pushes

450
00:35:07.199 --> 00:35:12.119
us over the top, because if
they're gonna double Kawhi. They you know,

451
00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:14.960
they're gonna come at him and he's
gonna have to be the guy that

452
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:17.840
starts hitting those shots. And today
was a great day, uh to to

453
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:22.880
to see him do what he what
he can do. And uh, I

454
00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:24.840
just hope they keep playing and they
keep playing well. Man, I don't

455
00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:29.360
see why they wouldn't. But they
got three games coming up. I don't

456
00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:31.400
want to say you take anybody for
granted, but these next three games coming

457
00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:37.599
up, they're not the level teams
that they've played in these last in this

458
00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:39.760
last eight game stretch, So I
hope we make up some ground there and

459
00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:45.559
uh, the Denver Nuggets and okay, see they have some tough games coming

460
00:35:45.599 --> 00:35:49.000
up and we're only one game behind
each one of them, so hopefully they

461
00:35:49.000 --> 00:35:52.360
make a move. All right.
I appreciate the phone call, Jose.

462
00:35:52.719 --> 00:35:54.920
Yeah, you can't take anyone lightly, but you got to win that game

463
00:35:54.960 --> 00:36:00.360
against the Brooklyn Nets after they beat
you. That was game two, James

464
00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:06.519
Harden. As the Clippers were still
figuring things out there, still were I'm

465
00:36:06.559 --> 00:36:10.199
not gonna say some curious but just
interesting lineups that we saw out there.

466
00:36:10.880 --> 00:36:16.320
Started the second quarter, no PG, no Kawhi, James Harden and Russ

467
00:36:16.360 --> 00:36:22.320
were out there. Believe they went
minus three. Same thing happened to start

468
00:36:22.360 --> 00:36:27.079
the fourth quarter. I'm looking for
some of the lineup data, but I

469
00:36:27.119 --> 00:36:32.000
believe they went minus three again those
two without PG and Kawhi. So look,

470
00:36:32.000 --> 00:36:36.920
there's gonna be a lot of experimenting
and tinkering because now there's no beat

471
00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:39.880
to Zubots. You gotta find other
lineups, other ways to win. Overall,

472
00:36:40.039 --> 00:36:45.199
Coach Lu pushed all the right buttons
that move to keep Norm off the

473
00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:50.480
on the bench. For Terrence Man, to me, is an all timer

474
00:36:50.559 --> 00:36:53.400
and speaks to the growth of tea
Man and earning those minutes with his play

475
00:36:53.719 --> 00:36:57.880
knocked down on a three pointer,
had seven points, four assists. The

476
00:36:57.960 --> 00:37:01.119
box score is never gonna be the
prettiest thing unless you're looking at the plus

477
00:37:01.159 --> 00:37:05.159
minus with Terrence Man most of the
time or some of the advanced numbers.

478
00:37:06.760 --> 00:37:12.599
He's not a big time scorer.
He's a connector. He's a guy who

479
00:37:12.639 --> 00:37:16.360
makes life easier for Kawhi and PG
because he will guard and the other team's

480
00:37:16.400 --> 00:37:20.639
best player to start off games.
That makes a huge difference. Let me

481
00:37:20.679 --> 00:37:23.760
tell you something down the stretch,
I don't know if Kawhi Leonard has the

482
00:37:23.840 --> 00:37:28.840
gas left in the tank to block
Sga, if it's not for Terrence Man

483
00:37:28.880 --> 00:37:36.800
taking up that responsibility early on in
games, there's that trickle down effect because

484
00:37:36.840 --> 00:37:42.960
he's guarded the other team's best player
early. It gives PG and Kawhi more

485
00:37:43.079 --> 00:37:47.280
energy late to do their thing.
But Man had a layup to start a

486
00:37:47.280 --> 00:37:55.800
pull up jumper, an offensive rebound
from a Kawhi Leonard miss three. I

487
00:37:55.840 --> 00:38:00.519
believe it was that he put back
in. But the block on chet who

488
00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:07.960
he and SGA miserable nights. They
combine to go eight for twenty six.

489
00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:15.440
And the Clippers did this without of
each zubas huge blow earlier today. They

490
00:38:15.440 --> 00:38:17.320
could have let that deflate them.
They could have let that seep into their

491
00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:22.320
energy, their spirit out there didn't
happen. So proud of this ball club.

492
00:38:22.679 --> 00:38:24.079
And yeah, I know a lot
of people thought, oh, okay,

493
00:38:24.079 --> 00:38:29.039
so he just took back the lead. Are the Clippers gonna be okay?

494
00:38:30.840 --> 00:38:36.079
They just took a huge paunch after
they had led by thirteen, led

495
00:38:36.079 --> 00:38:38.639
by ten, hanging in heading into
the fourth and then okay, see takes

496
00:38:38.639 --> 00:38:43.559
the lead off that big three pointer
off a I don't want to say lucky

497
00:38:43.599 --> 00:38:49.119
but fortunate bounce that went their way
after Darren's man just blocked Isaiah Joe on

498
00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:51.960
a three pointer when he had missed
all night. It ends up in the

499
00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:53.519
hands of Jadubb and he knocks down
a three to put him up by one.

500
00:38:54.920 --> 00:39:00.840
But they just responded. They just
played through the adversity. That is

501
00:39:00.880 --> 00:39:05.239
what you have to do if you
want to win a championship. Things aren't

502
00:39:05.239 --> 00:39:07.000
always gonna go your way out there. It's not gonna be perfect. You

503
00:39:07.079 --> 00:39:15.639
might miss ooh nine free throws like
they did tonight, and they still won.

504
00:39:16.280 --> 00:39:22.559
They kept the turnovers down, They
had twelve offensive rebounds. They out

505
00:39:22.599 --> 00:39:27.679
rebounded OKC overall thirty nine to thirty
five. They matched them with points in

506
00:39:27.719 --> 00:39:31.920
the paint at forty, and the
Clippers had big number twenty one second chance

507
00:39:31.960 --> 00:39:40.519
points on nine of twelve shooting.
Love seeing this team respond bounce back in

508
00:39:40.599 --> 00:39:45.599
this manner after the loss to Minnesota, which could have been a victory.

509
00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:53.320
They made that push late Clippers tonight
they stood a push from OKC. I'll

510
00:39:53.400 --> 00:39:58.519
update you on the Sandy's coming up. We'll hear from coach Lou We'll hear

511

Welcome back into Clippers Talk. Eight sixty

518
00:40:36.719 --> 00:40:39.079
six ninety seven, two five seventy
is the phone number right now, let's

519
00:40:39.079 --> 00:40:44.239
get out to Chuck Mockler of Clips
and Dip. I heard they got one

520
00:40:44.320 --> 00:40:50.960
k subscribers now on YouTube that big
day all around, so many different subscribers.

521
00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:54.119
You know, I was talking with
Carlo during the break and we brought

522
00:40:54.119 --> 00:40:59.639
it up on the podcast or the
broadcast as well. That will be in

523
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:04.519
podcast for him later on with Clippers
Stock. But he brought up a great

524
00:41:04.559 --> 00:41:08.079
point, as you would expect,
said, you know, if Mason Plumbley

525
00:41:08.559 --> 00:41:15.519
hadn't gotten hurt against New York,
they wouldn't have Daniel Tice, and therefore

526
00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:17.679
both of these guys right now in
a time of need where they don't have

527
00:41:17.719 --> 00:41:22.119
a Vitza Zubats. Sometimes things do
happen for a reason. It would appear

528
00:41:22.599 --> 00:41:27.800
wrong, my wrong, Chuck,
No, that is a great point.

529
00:41:27.840 --> 00:41:30.719
I didn't realize that either. Shout
out to Carlo. But yeah, it's

530
00:41:30.760 --> 00:41:36.519
pretty you know, it's never obviously
never given when someone gets hurt. But

531
00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:40.519
the way that this Zubos injury happened
is kind of serendipitous for the Clippers.

532
00:41:40.559 --> 00:41:45.199
Right. You get Mason Plumbley,
who played out maybe ten more minutes than

533
00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:47.480
I thought he was going to play
tonight, mostly because he was just so

534
00:41:47.639 --> 00:41:52.639
good in his return, you know, I mean, fourteen to five and

535
00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:54.880
two with three blocks. I think
he has four blocks all season, and

536
00:41:54.920 --> 00:41:59.000
three of them came tonight. Was
great to see. And then yeah,

537
00:41:59.079 --> 00:42:01.440
like you mentioned, you know,
Daniel Tye coming in with something to prove,

538
00:42:01.519 --> 00:42:05.719
with the chip on his shoulder after
not getting as much time and Indiana

539
00:42:05.840 --> 00:42:09.239
after winning you know, the gold
medal with Germany. Like it's funny because

540
00:42:09.239 --> 00:42:14.599
if you look at last season center
situation, this season is the complete opposite.

541
00:42:14.599 --> 00:42:17.159
We've had good luck even despite the
injuries. And we have two guys

542
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:22.800
who can do different things, but
still things that have been very effectius since

543
00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:27.159
they've gotten here. So I mean, I know Paul George had thirty eight

544
00:42:27.199 --> 00:42:30.199
tonight, thirty seven excuse me,
thirty eight to seven and five with three

545
00:42:30.239 --> 00:42:32.719
steals. He was the player of
the game, I think, just because

546
00:42:32.719 --> 00:42:37.360
of their return, how well he
played and what he showed us, you

547
00:42:37.400 --> 00:42:42.360
know with his sighs. Mason Plumley's
probably player of the game Part two.

548
00:42:42.960 --> 00:42:45.079
Yeah, Mason Plumbley a block on
Giddy to start, then a block on

549
00:42:45.199 --> 00:42:49.239
Chit in the second quarter. I'll
put back off a Kawhi miss late in

550
00:42:49.239 --> 00:42:52.800
the second quarter, after being shoved
to the ground by Lou Dord a few

551
00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:55.280
different times underneath the basket. Out
of a timeout. In the third quarter,

552
00:42:55.840 --> 00:43:00.760
they went right at Sga, who
was in foul trouble with Ason Plumbley

553
00:43:00.159 --> 00:43:04.679
for an easy bucket and then he
had a block on the other end right

554
00:43:04.719 --> 00:43:07.760
afterwards, kind of lob from James
Harden at the four twenty four mark of

555
00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:12.960
the third He was awesome, as
was Daniel Tice with his three blocks to

556
00:43:14.079 --> 00:43:16.920
the block on Sga to end.
The first quarter a plip back then to

557
00:43:16.960 --> 00:43:21.599
start the second. You want to
talk about energy plays from these guys just

558
00:43:21.639 --> 00:43:25.760
being scrappy out there. He had
that block that was challenged. I'm calling

559
00:43:25.800 --> 00:43:30.880
it the no look block. I
forget if that was on J Dubb or

560
00:43:30.920 --> 00:43:35.159
who that was on, but it
was an offensive fat ye it was.

561
00:43:35.519 --> 00:43:37.920
He had a three pointer what's up, Chuck to end the third quarter,

562
00:43:39.119 --> 00:43:44.320
another contest on hit uh just no
easy buckets. I felt like for the

563
00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:46.800
Clippers for the most part tonight with
out of eats zoobots, it just seemed

564
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:52.199
like collectively they really came together.
And to me, Charles Terrence Man was

565
00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:54.840
also very good, not just with
defense on the perimeter, but near the

566
00:43:54.880 --> 00:44:00.480
basket. Yeah, we see Terrence
man can continuing to put up these you

567
00:44:00.519 --> 00:44:05.280
know Pat Bev esque stat lines.
Right. He had seven three and four

568
00:44:05.360 --> 00:44:07.360
with two blocks to night, and
he was ever he wanted him to be

569
00:44:07.440 --> 00:44:14.239
on defense. He cashed I think
the first three pointer he made, and

570
00:44:14.280 --> 00:44:19.599
it was just it. It's funny
looking at this team from last year because

571
00:44:19.679 --> 00:44:22.119
last year, if Zoo was going
to be out four weeks at least,

572
00:44:22.239 --> 00:44:25.800
I would not have had the I
don't know if optimism is the right word,

573
00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:29.719
but I guess the peace of mind
to know that the Clippers can still

574
00:44:29.760 --> 00:44:32.000
do damage and make noise. It
looked like they didn't miss a beat tonight.

575
00:44:32.000 --> 00:44:36.039
Offense three without Sue. You know
they were missing him. But people

576
00:44:36.079 --> 00:44:38.559
like Terrence playing so well, especially
with defensive end, makes it easier for

577
00:44:38.599 --> 00:44:43.480
guys like Paul George and Kawi Leonard
on the offensive end. So Karrence is

578
00:44:43.519 --> 00:44:47.039
doing every single thing you need.
You know the well, I guess tonight

579
00:44:47.079 --> 00:44:52.039
the fourth option on the offense,
you know the starters and offense to do,

580
00:44:52.199 --> 00:44:55.239
and maybe the third option defensively for
the Clippers was Zo bots out Now

581
00:44:55.280 --> 00:45:00.440
I think so again, more up
into the right Terrence. He he's still

582
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:06.000
shooting incredible from three. The role
players are doing every single little thing they

583
00:45:06.000 --> 00:45:08.639
need to do, including a mere
Coffee who was fantastic to night, I

584
00:45:08.639 --> 00:45:13.079
thought, on both sides of the
ball. Yeah, a mirror also,

585
00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:16.480
he had a three pointer to end
the first half, and then another one

586
00:45:16.519 --> 00:45:21.960
I believe at the end of the
third quarter. Just some really timely threes

587
00:45:22.079 --> 00:45:25.519
when three of three from distance had
nine points fifteen minutes. Good defense,

588
00:45:25.599 --> 00:45:31.039
hard defense out there, even on
a night where Norm has an off shooting

589
00:45:31.119 --> 00:45:36.599
night. But to me, coach
lou not going with him late in the

590
00:45:36.599 --> 00:45:42.360
fourth quarter at about the seven minute
mark and putting in Terrence Man instead was

591
00:45:42.400 --> 00:45:45.239
such a brilliant move and a difficult
one with how good Norman has been in

592
00:45:45.280 --> 00:45:49.960
fourth quarters. I mean, you
gotta think he's had plenty of games where

593
00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:52.599
he wasn't very good in the first
half or good through three quarters. You

594
00:45:52.639 --> 00:45:55.719
brought it up a four chuck where
he's had still starts and he turns around

595
00:45:55.800 --> 00:46:00.639
the fourth and you could have played
that game just betting on Terrence or excuse

596
00:46:00.679 --> 00:46:02.159
me, Norm Palell to figure it
out in the fourth. Instead, he

597
00:46:02.239 --> 00:46:07.519
wanted more defense, he wanted Terrence
Man. He closed the game and he

598
00:46:07.599 --> 00:46:13.880
earned it. Yeah, tylu is
seeing the game better than I think he's

599
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:16.719
seen it as the Clippers coach.
Continuity certainly helps with that. You know,

600
00:46:16.800 --> 00:46:22.440
he actually gets to play the guys
that he should be playing, and

601
00:46:22.480 --> 00:46:24.400
he's just pulling all the right strings
right now. The Clippers obviously they shot

602
00:46:24.440 --> 00:46:29.000
well, they've been playing fantastic.
But you're totally right, Tyler. You

603
00:46:29.119 --> 00:46:31.400
could have sat with Norman we all, I'm sure he would have gotten angry

604
00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:37.599
phone calls about it and things like
that. But Tyler's feeling the game as

605
00:46:37.599 --> 00:46:39.079
well as the team is feeling it, if that makes sense. I think

606
00:46:39.119 --> 00:46:44.519
sometimes you watch a team and the
team and the coach or maybe seeing different

607
00:46:44.559 --> 00:46:47.320
things or just not necessarily on the
same page. It feels like every single

608
00:46:47.320 --> 00:46:52.000
person is on the same page for
the Clippers right now, and that is

609
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:54.639
I guess Kawhi's page or the team's
page. But that's a great point.

610
00:46:54.679 --> 00:47:00.519
Credit credit to TYLERU for making the
decision to go with Terrance. Yeah.

611
00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:04.199
I think one of the tests of
a locker room in on court chemistry and

612
00:47:04.280 --> 00:47:08.199
just being a cohesive unit is what
happens once one of your major parts of

613
00:47:08.239 --> 00:47:13.239
this team is missing. How do
you get by without guys? Do you

614
00:47:13.360 --> 00:47:16.199
rally around it? Is it deflating? Do you give in? Clippers didn't

615
00:47:16.239 --> 00:47:21.519
do that at all. I thought, even when OKC was hitting ridiculous shots

616
00:47:21.559 --> 00:47:23.719
and they had forty points on the
pain, that's not close to a big

617
00:47:23.800 --> 00:47:28.960
number. They leave the league in
drives to the basket. Even with all

618
00:47:29.039 --> 00:47:30.440
that, I thought, for the
most part, the Clippers were good and

619
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:35.480
connected defensively, and the effort and
the energy was there. On a day

620
00:47:35.519 --> 00:47:37.000
where they find out that a Visa
Zubats is gonna be out for a month

621
00:47:37.480 --> 00:47:43.119
with that right calf strain. I
just felt like they overcame it somehow.

622
00:47:43.199 --> 00:47:47.440
They overcame missing nine free throws somehow, and they held SGA to six of

623
00:47:47.519 --> 00:47:52.840
sixteen shooting. And my favorite play
of the ballgame, Chuck was the block

624
00:47:52.920 --> 00:47:55.719
Kawhi Leonard had on him and then
Paul George ripped it from him. I

625
00:47:57.519 --> 00:48:00.519
haven't seen anyone now, I don't
watch every game from Okay, but when

626
00:48:00.559 --> 00:48:05.480
you're beat off the dribble by SGA, who was recovered to block that shot,

627
00:48:05.599 --> 00:48:08.880
I haven't seen that. Maybe it's
just me. No, it was

628
00:48:08.920 --> 00:48:13.000
incredible, and you messaged you know
SGA had had a rough night. Chet

629
00:48:13.000 --> 00:48:15.760
Holgrim had a horrible night. Chet
Holgrim went two for ten. We had

630
00:48:15.840 --> 00:48:21.239
Terrence vanguarding chet Holgrim. We tweezed
him lack a power forward and I guess

631
00:48:21.239 --> 00:48:23.840
you kind of saw what the Clippers
can defense defense can you know, do

632
00:48:24.079 --> 00:48:30.079
to Chet specifically? I did think
the Clippers kind of were playing the Thunder's

633
00:48:30.159 --> 00:48:32.159
pace for most of this game.
We were just you know, making our

634
00:48:32.199 --> 00:48:35.920
shots. If you look at the
box score, it's kind of I mean,

635
00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:39.519
the thundershot forty seven from three's the
Clipper shot forty six and a half.

636
00:48:39.719 --> 00:48:43.559
We just made three more of them. So the Clippers it felt like

637
00:48:43.559 --> 00:48:45.760
they were kind of taking what okay, So he was giving them when things

638
00:48:45.760 --> 00:48:47.960
were going well, and then started
later in the game to impose their will

639
00:48:49.000 --> 00:48:52.599
a bit. The sequence where Paul
George hit a three, ripped the steel

640
00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:57.800
and then dunked it to force the
thundertime out late was just something where it

641
00:48:57.880 --> 00:49:00.760
was like, oh, right,
we can. We'll have our guys impose

642
00:49:00.840 --> 00:49:05.320
their will on both ends of the
floor when they want to. So we're

643
00:49:05.360 --> 00:49:08.960
getting good process with great closing from
the stars right now. You know what's

644
00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:14.119
funny, I just realized this.
The OKAC thunder shot the exact same percentage

645
00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:16.719
and made the exact same number of
three pointers against the Clippers tonight as they

646
00:49:16.719 --> 00:49:22.000
did in OKC when they won by
nineteen sixteen of thirty four. Tonight,

647
00:49:22.039 --> 00:49:28.039
the Clippers go twenty of forty three
outshoot them from three. They're the best

648
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:30.280
three point shooting team in the league. The stats say it. Tonight says

649
00:49:30.320 --> 00:49:34.639
it. It was a battle the
two best shooting teams in the league,

650
00:49:35.039 --> 00:49:37.400
and the Clippers get the best of
the OKAC thunder. They come through late,

651
00:49:37.920 --> 00:49:43.960
led by as many as thirteen,
and PG thirteen took them home lastly,

652
00:49:44.079 --> 00:49:47.880
quickly here Chuck. Just Paul George's
performance ready you said, go say

653
00:49:47.920 --> 00:49:53.519
whatever you want. Just fantastic to
see and bounced back from a really rough

654
00:49:53.599 --> 00:49:58.320
start to this game. The first
quarter was obviously not ideal, and then

655
00:49:58.400 --> 00:50:00.719
Paul George is so smooth. Think
wow, he's made a lot of shots

656
00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:02.840
in a row, and you look
up and he has thirty eight points.

657
00:50:04.639 --> 00:50:07.519
The steels were fantastic. He was
a two way superstar to night in every

658
00:50:07.599 --> 00:50:12.639
sense of a word. You know, Kawhi Leonard only took ten shots,

659
00:50:12.679 --> 00:50:15.199
but when Paul George is taking twenty
four and hitting sixty three percent of them,

660
00:50:15.239 --> 00:50:19.639
you say five, that's totally okay. Six or twelve from deep I

661
00:50:20.159 --> 00:50:22.679
just I don't know. He said
it in his post game. He's just

662
00:50:22.679 --> 00:50:24.159
committed to winning right now and he
knows he's, you know, one of

663
00:50:24.199 --> 00:50:28.239
the best shooters in the league.
So this was great from Paul George.

664
00:50:28.239 --> 00:50:30.559
I'll have to kind of find someone
else who will watch every single one of

665
00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:34.760
his field goals to see how many
one dribble or no dribble streets he had.

666
00:50:35.199 --> 00:50:37.320
But Paul George did a great job
imposing as well. On this game.

667
00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:42.199
Tyler was really crafty with his rotations. We saw like Harden with the

668
00:50:42.199 --> 00:50:44.400
bench, Paul George with the bench, and Kawhi with the bench. So

669
00:50:45.079 --> 00:50:46.840
it was just great to see from
Paul George. And now they get more

670
00:50:46.880 --> 00:50:52.400
importantly four days off to rest.
Paul George had thirty eight points played thirty

671
00:50:52.440 --> 00:50:54.679
four minutes, not as many as
Kawhi, which is interesting, but he

672
00:50:54.679 --> 00:51:00.480
gets to rest, he gets this
great performance still in his mind when they

673
00:51:00.480 --> 00:51:04.039
head to Brooklyn. So just really
happy for Paul George. Have you for

674
00:51:04.039 --> 00:51:06.920
the clips. It could not have
come in a better time. You know,

675
00:51:06.960 --> 00:51:09.920
you split a series with series quote
unquote with the two of the top

676
00:51:09.920 --> 00:51:14.800
teams in the league. Missing Zoo
tough to beat Minnesota, but they almost

677
00:51:14.840 --> 00:51:17.039
hung in. They almost got that
win, and then tonight they showed why

678
00:51:17.039 --> 00:51:22.119
they are and should be considered a
championship caliber team. Clippers win one twenty

679
00:51:22.159 --> 00:51:25.920
eight to one seventeen over the OKC
thunder. He is big Chuck Mackler.

680
00:51:27.400 --> 00:51:30.639
No rest for the weary though,
just because they have four days off doesn't

681
00:51:30.639 --> 00:51:36.039
mean we're not gonna be podcasting Clippers
podcast on YouTube. Oh we got work

682
00:51:36.079 --> 00:51:39.159
to do. Come on the Beata

Want to update you on the Western Conference

694
00:52:30.519 --> 00:52:35.000
standings. Clippers still in that four
spot at game back of the Denver Nuggets

695
00:52:35.039 --> 00:52:37.559
for the three seed a game back
of OKAC for the two seed. They

696
00:52:37.599 --> 00:52:40.840
currently have the tiebreaker over the Denver
Nuggets. Or no, they have one

697
00:52:40.920 --> 00:52:47.239
less loss and one less win.
Better to have one less loss than another

698
00:52:47.320 --> 00:52:51.880
win. Yeah, twenty eight and
fourteen Denver Nuggets versus twenty seven to thirteen

699
00:52:51.920 --> 00:52:54.960
OKAC thunder and Okay, see still
in that two spot. Clippers just at

700
00:52:55.000 --> 00:53:01.440
game back of them now Clippers nine
or they won nine of their last eleven

701
00:53:01.760 --> 00:53:09.119
ball games going back to December.
They're eighteen for their last twenty two.

702
00:53:10.599 --> 00:53:15.480
If you want to go back even
further than that. With the Clippers going

703
00:53:15.519 --> 00:53:20.199
back to the new starting lineup,
they've won twenty three of their last thirty

704
00:53:20.679 --> 00:53:24.000
games. Let's hear from Paul George
PG. Thirteen postgame is he had eighteen

705
00:53:24.119 --> 00:53:28.000
U thirty eight points in the fourth
quarter. He was on with the TNT

706
00:53:28.239 --> 00:53:30.320
guys. Uh oh, I hope
they know who Paul George is. Still

707
00:53:30.360 --> 00:53:36.320
know now? There he is,
Paul George. Congratulations you in one twenty

708
00:53:36.360 --> 00:53:38.280
eight, one seventeen, it's left
go here. I just want to ask,

709
00:53:38.320 --> 00:53:42.519
after that one shot, it looked
like something was wrong with your shoulders.

710
00:53:42.559 --> 00:53:46.719
Is everything okay? Bteam? Yeah, I'm I I'm I I'm going

711
00:53:46.760 --> 00:53:50.559
you had you had you had the
wiggle man? How is it feeling?

712
00:53:50.639 --> 00:53:52.400
What was getting into you there?
The second right now? High? It

713
00:53:52.519 --> 00:53:55.119
was hot. That shoulder was a
little hot. I was trying to cool

714
00:53:55.159 --> 00:54:00.800
it down, but yeah, caught
fire and uh we uh was able to

715
00:54:00.840 --> 00:54:07.039
finish this one out. Shack here
Kawhi healthy, you playing well? Russell

716
00:54:07.119 --> 00:54:09.760
deciding to come up to bench,
James coming into his own How far you

717
00:54:09.880 --> 00:54:15.320
think you guys can go? I
think we were in the driver's seat.

718
00:54:15.559 --> 00:54:20.440
We control our destiny. We can
go as far as we want to go.

719
00:54:21.039 --> 00:54:23.679
I think we committed to one another, which is the most important team

720
00:54:23.880 --> 00:54:30.920
thing for this team. Pg.
Thirteen. This is Candice playing playing rated

721
00:54:30.000 --> 00:54:36.159
R tonight per usual. But how
many open catch and shoot threes are you

722
00:54:36.239 --> 00:54:43.239
getting this year as opposed to years? Pass guys like James harden yourself where

723
00:54:43.280 --> 00:54:46.679
you cannot be doubled because you make
the other team pay. Yeah, I

724
00:54:46.719 --> 00:54:52.159
mean those guys allow me to get
in a rhythm and and honestly just line

725
00:54:52.199 --> 00:54:57.519
them up at will. Both of
them require double teams. They require so

726
00:54:57.599 --> 00:55:01.079
much attention that a lot of time, you know it's I have the third

727
00:55:01.159 --> 00:55:06.039
best defender on me, and at
that point you know, it's it's the

728
00:55:06.119 --> 00:55:09.039
team is at our mercy. So
playing off those guys definitely helped my game

729
00:55:10.079 --> 00:55:13.800
and vice versa. Whenever I get
a chance to be aggressive to get them

730
00:55:13.840 --> 00:55:17.880
open looks, I try to PG. What's up is Jamal Crawford When you

731
00:55:19.280 --> 00:55:22.719
first said a while ago that you
know what, Kawhi is the number one,

732
00:55:22.719 --> 00:55:24.639
I'm the number two, that was
bigger you. I think it helped

733
00:55:24.639 --> 00:55:28.320
set your team. How do you
know on Knights when it's time to be

734
00:55:28.400 --> 00:55:30.920
number one like you were to night
and just take over games and be who

735
00:55:30.960 --> 00:55:34.280
you are because you're one of the
best players in the world. Ski appreciate

736
00:55:34.320 --> 00:55:37.039
it. I mean it's it's honestly
just reading the game. You know they

737
00:55:37.239 --> 00:55:40.320
they're gonna double team Kawhi at night
in night out. So to alleviate that,

738
00:55:40.440 --> 00:55:45.519
I gotta get going. I gotta
be aggressive to at least give him

739
00:55:45.559 --> 00:55:49.119
opportunities to play one on one.
You know, every possession that they're sending

740
00:55:49.199 --> 00:55:51.840
two at them. So the more
I can be aggressive, the more I

741
00:55:51.840 --> 00:55:54.519
can try to take control. It
only opens up the game for him and

742
00:55:54.559 --> 00:55:58.400
allows him to get comfortable. So
you know, that's just been my mindset,

743
00:55:58.519 --> 00:56:00.960
you know, on on you know, any given night, and that

744
00:56:01.039 --> 00:56:05.280
mentally was just solely, man,
I just want to put everybody at ease.

745
00:56:05.320 --> 00:56:07.400
I know what I'm capable of,
I know what I can do in

746
00:56:07.400 --> 00:56:09.800
this league one and two option.
I know I'm gonna get my fair share.

747

Honestly, I'm just committed to winning. And that's it. A season

00:56:30.159 --> 00:56:34.280
you. Thank you guys. Yeah, it's November seventeenth. But we know

752
00:56:34.599 --> 00:56:37.599
you can't expect they have to cover
all the teams. We're just here covering

753
00:56:37.599 --> 00:56:42.599
the Clippers. Great to hear from
PG thirteen post game on the NBA on

754
00:56:42.800 --> 00:56:47.440
TNT before we get out of here. It's also great to hear from Big

755
00:56:47.440 --> 00:56:52.400
Brother Jake Warner of the Big Brother
Jake Podcast on the Podcast one network.

756
00:56:52.880 --> 00:56:57.400
Big Bro, what's good man?
Three? Yeah, that's what's good?

757
00:56:57.480 --> 00:56:59.280
Right now? Brother, This is
a fun one tonight, right It was

758
00:56:59.320 --> 00:57:00.000
a lot of fun. Man.
We had a good time up here in

759
00:57:00.000 --> 00:57:06.280
Club one, Carlo had his mother
and said, yeah, she's good luck,

760
00:57:07.840 --> 00:57:08.920
so she has to come back.
We'll see her on Sunday. I

761
00:57:09.000 --> 00:57:13.639
hope let's home, all right?
Before we get out of here, Big

762
00:57:13.679 --> 00:57:17.400
Brother Jake Warner is also known as
the fake philosipher because of his words of

763
00:57:17.440 --> 00:57:22.239
wisdom, but he's still self deprecating
about it always. You know, there's

764
00:57:22.280 --> 00:57:24.599
two professors in the building tonight.
By the way, the professor from the

765
00:57:24.639 --> 00:57:29.400
an one mixtape tours on the court, and we got Big Brother Jake Warner

766
00:57:29.519 --> 00:57:35.199
the professor. Professor forget him all
right? Professor? What's the lesson?

767
00:57:35.320 --> 00:57:39.599
All right? The degree to which
a person can grow is directly proportional to

768
00:57:39.639 --> 00:57:45.880
the amount of truth they can accept
about themselves without running away. Oh those

769
00:57:45.960 --> 00:57:49.480
hard truth you know it? Sometimes
you got to look yourself in the mirror.

770
00:57:50.079 --> 00:57:53.199
Always? Is that good enough?
Today? How could I have approved?

771
00:57:53.039 --> 00:58:00.800
Gosh? Don it? People?
