This is Clippers Locker 2 00:00:06.599 --> 00:00:09.960 Room, brought to you by Cedars Sinai, the official health partner of the 3 00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:14.960 LA Clippers, and by Patchonga, official travel casino of the LA Clippers. 4 00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:19.519 Breaking down today's action with the pre and post game voice. If you're LA 5 00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:25.719 Clippers, They're locking in every game every night. Adam Oslan hashtag comeback clips 6 00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:29.359 sixty percent of the time. It works every time they come back down fourteen 7 00:00:29.399 --> 00:00:32.960 against the Bulls at home and win one twelve to oneh two. Welcome into 8 00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:37.200 your post game show. I'm Adam Oslin coming up. We won't get the 9 00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:41.079 second half highlights, your post game box score and more. But first back 10 00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:46.119 out to Carlo Jimenez. Carlo, the Clippers held the Bulls to seventeen points 11 00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:50.320 in that fourth quarter. They went just five of twenty two from the field. 12 00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:53.439 And you mentioned it. They've been one of the best during clutch time, 13 00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:56.880 but they took on the best in this one in the Los Angeles Clippers. 14 00:00:57.159 --> 00:01:00.399 Yeah. I mean the Clippers just closed the door lake Defensively, what 15 00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:07.159 an effort by this team at Norman Powell was great, getting in the passing 16 00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:11.200 lanes. Paul George took his matchup personally. He finished with two steals in 17 00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:17.239 three blocks in this one, and the Clippers caused Chicago to just have a 18 00:01:17.319 --> 00:01:23.159 chaotic offensive sequence time and time again, three for fifteen down the stretch in 19 00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:26.359 the fourth quarter. What a great job by the Clippers taking it to that 20 00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:30.040 next level that we know they have. You hope we'll come out a little 21 00:01:30.079 --> 00:01:34.159 earlier, but at the end of the day, the Clippers get a big 22 00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:38.120 time win. They come back down double digits, and they are stacking a 23 00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:42.200 couple of wins against teams they need to beat in the West. And the 24 00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:46.560 Clippers were down fourteen early in that third quarter. At one point they went 25 00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:49.959 on a nineteen to four run, and it was just James Harden running pick 26 00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:53.200 and roll as he should with a Vitza zu bots. We heard from coach 27 00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:57.040 lou earlier in the season say, hey, if you run pick and roll 28 00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.799 with James Harden sixty times, you're probably getting fifty five good shots. That's 29 00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:04.799 basically what we saw tonight. Yeah, I mean, James Harden had seven 30 00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:08.439 assists on him in the third quarter. He was so good finding of each 31 00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:14.439 zubox above the rim Busevich, who's not your traditional five, just didn't know 32 00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:17.520 what he could do with Harden attacking the lane. Do you contest on the 33 00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:23.080 Harden floater? Do you stay back and try to get ahead of the lob 34 00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:28.879 and Frusevich was left in no man's land time and time again. A great 35 00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:30.919 win for the Clippers. They needed this one. You always want to get 36 00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:35.360 that front end of a back to bank because then you feel like that second 37 00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:38.520 game, while you don't want to take it for granted, you did get 38 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:42.719 one. We'll see if the Clippers can do it against Milwaukee tomorrow. A 39 00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:46.560 little earlier here in this build, yes, you mentioned two and twenty two 40 00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:50.599 hours as Paul George played forty minutes. Kawhi Leonard was at thirty eight, 41 00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:53.599 James Harden at thirty four. But I do want to focus in on Paul 42 00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:57.039 George because he had been struggling as of late, but now, forbe his 43 00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.439 last five games, he has shot about fifty percent from the field. It 44 00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.520 just seems like he's starting to turn that corner offensively. Oh, by the 45 00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:06.400 way, he had eight assists too. Yeah, I think Adam he is 46 00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:09.280 really finding his rhythm as of late. You mentioned it, but coming into 47 00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:13.759 this game. We're shooting forty four percent from three in his last five games 48 00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:17.120 on nearly nine attempts a bowl game, and the Clippers trusted him down the 49 00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:21.400 stretch and he gave them big time buckets. I like how he's playing within 50 00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:23.759 the offense a little more. You mentioned the nine assists. He's moving the 51 00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:27.759 basketball, he's finding his teammates, he's getting out and open, and that 52 00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:30.960 ball movement is helping the Clippers in this one. Twenty nine assists today, 53 00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:35.680 the Clippers moving the basketball a lot, and that helped them get it done 54 00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:39.599 down the stretch. Clippers were able to come back down by fourteen early in 55 00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:44.719 the second half. They end up winning over the Chicago Bulls one twelve to 56 00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:50.039 one two. Right back after tomorrow. It is a noon tip, which 57 00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:53.800 really means it's an eleven am tip because he has spring forward tonight, wind 58 00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:59.120 your clocks forward, or just smashed them like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. 59 00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:01.879 I'll be doing that to my alarm tomorrow. But the Clippers tipping off at 60 00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:06.240 noon. We'll have your pregame show starting at eleven tomorrow right back at crypt 61 00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:10.560 dot com. Areno.

Whoa Clippers win one twelve to one O two.

That means the phone number is eight seven seven five to 76 00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:15.600 two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five to two zero eleven fifty. Let's 77 00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:17.839 get the second half highlights. Clippers were down eleven at the half. Then 78 00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.839 there was a three pointer hit to start off the third quarter by Chicago, 79 00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:26.439 so they are down fourteen. But then they just clicked in. It started 80 00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:30.519 with defense leading to offense in the third quarter, the assuming of a ram 81 00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:33.959 black by George at the Apex Clippers right to left. Here comes man dissecting 82 00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:38.120 the defense of the line, plays it up. George curls the screen of 83 00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:41.639 the freako line pulls up and the left elbow sticks it light rips. They're 84 00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:45.240 going right, pedals into the paints left tended lamp black from behind Clippers with 85 00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:48.040 numbers. It's Leonard all alone to the rim. Still dunk a home back 86 00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:51.720 to our fine two bats left block, He'll rock the iron with two hands 87 00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:57.639 for safety. George left wing extended cross over the right hand dancing, takes 88 00:05:57.639 --> 00:06:00.720 a faceline step back a jumper for the tie. Got it. Thompson starts 89 00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:04.560 down the right alley, end of timing left corner hard and three bash, 90 00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:09.279 who rows and throws it away. George the steel and he'll rock the rim 91 00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:13.199 with the right hand. Corning curls and bree lops it up. Two gets 92 00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:16.439 up and he puts it in.

Yeah, it was like that. Carlo and Menez on 95 00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:30.920 the call afeats The zoo Bots win five of five for ten points in the 96 00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:33.079 third quarter. James Harden, I think assisted him on all of those, 97 00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:36.959 as he had seven assists. Paul George had eight points in the third, 98 00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:42.000 Terrence Man had seven, and after being down by fourteen, the Clippers were 99 00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:45.480 down by just two heading into the fourth. It was eighty five to eighty 100 00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:48.560 three and they just kept the good times rolling sound STAPs to George left ob 101 00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:54.000 swings the pass, Norman right corner three.

The Clippers outscored the Bulls twenty nine to seventeen. 111 00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:44.839 In the final period. They were making a rain from the outside.

Everything was working. 113 00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:53.639 They came back down fourteen today to win one twelve to one O two over 114 00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:58.279 doubles.

The Clippers having to play two games within twenty two 133 00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:33.720 hours, which is something nobody else has to deal with, should make them 134 00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:39.639 even more angry.

The Clippers cut the bowl 143 00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:20.159 in the second half as they cut into a fourteen point lead by Chicago and 144 00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:26.399 win by ONUE twelve one on two.

I'm Adam Oslin here on the Patriot Am 147 00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:39.559 eleven fifty for the first time this season. If you want to get on 148 00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:45.200 eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five to two zero 149 00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:50.759 eleven fifty is the phone number. After the Clippers get their third double digit 150 00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:58.000 comeback in a week. They came back down sixteen against Minnesota. They came 151 00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:03.480 back down twenty against the Rockets. On Wednesday. They come back down fourteen 152 00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:09.559 against the Chicago Bulls. We'll talk about it. We will have Chuck maclauron 153 00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:13.639 from Clips and Dip. We're looking for postgame audio from it. Sounds like 154 00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:18.120 it's gonna be Dan Craig as coach lou Is under the Weather associate head coach 155 00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:24.559 Dan Craig getting his second victories to and oh so far filling in for coach 156 00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:28.320 lou who was ejected in that game against the Golden State Warriors right before the 157 00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:31.559 All Star break, and then today coach Lou under the Weather was wearing a 158 00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:35.600 mask on the bench. But Dan Craig doing some nice things. He is 159 00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:41.080 their DC, their defensive coordinator, not just Dan Craig, but the associate 160 00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:48.480 head coach. For a reason, Clippers once again in the first half just 161 00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:52.840 didn't play with the right spirit, energy, effort, weren't hitting shots Bulls 162 00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:58.200 were and then things completely flipped around in the second half. How many times 163 00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:01.200 have we said this recently, well, a few different times. It just 164 00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:05.039 named three games in the past week by this Clippers team that continues to get 165 00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:09.480 off to slil starts in first quarter since February first, they're twenty second in 166 00:12:09.559 --> 00:12:13.440 net rating in the first quarter. It's not good. They were down eleven 167 00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:20.639 early. I put out the hashtag comeback clips on my ex on Twitter at 168 00:12:20.679 --> 00:12:22.960 follow out of May whatever you want to call it. The third time this 169 00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.159 week it worked. I'm kidding. I had nothing to do with the comeback. 170 00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:31.320 The players are the ones to put in the work. But you could 171 00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:35.759 just see it. It was a classic comeback Clippers performance against a Bulls team 172 00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:37.120 that was playing much better. They had won five of seven, they had 173 00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:41.840 good victories along the way. They've been a top ten offense in their last 174 00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:46.039 ten games, and they were the second best team when it came down to 175 00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:52.159 clutch time in terms of net rating behind who since December first? You're Los 176 00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:58.000 Angeles Clippers. They are now seventeen and five. I want to say since 177 00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:01.279 December first. In a game that comes down to the last five minutes within 178 00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:05.039 five points, that is impressive. I know they've let They've let a couple 179 00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:09.200 get away from them against Milwaukee, against the Lakers, but overall they have 180 00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:16.159 come up huge in clutch moments and have come back from huge deficits. Today's 181 00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:22.399 was up to fourteen early in the third quarter, after Doubles would hit a 182 00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:26.559 three pointer, just like how they ended the second quarter. Which was a 183 00:13:26.559 --> 00:13:28.879 little bit frustrating, and I saw some frustration on the face of Kawhi Leonard 184 00:13:30.120 --> 00:13:33.960 or from his big Mitt as he slapped the basketball heading into the locker room. 185 00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:39.200 As the Clippers just gave up an easy one to end the second where 186 00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:41.519 it looked like they just lost focus. They didn't know how many seconds were 187 00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:48.559 left in the half, and they gave up an open three pointer. That 188 00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:52.480 stuff can't happen. They have to be better with that. It was Desumu 189 00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:56.320 who hit a three pointer to end the third. He hit another one to 190 00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:03.279 start the second half. Uppers are down by fourteen, but then there was 191 00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:07.720 just a little bit extra pop out there by the Clippers. Terrence Man hit 192 00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:09.919 a three pointer to answer that right away. Paul George has a block on 193 00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:15.039 Desumo, and then Terrence Man gets out in transition, gets a layup, 194 00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:20.200 then a PG fade away over two. After some good defense by a Vita 195 00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:24.039 Zubats it's a five point game, but Chicago go right back up by ten 196 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:28.039 within the next minute. But then Zoo a dunk off a PG feed a 197 00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:33.279 man layup would bring it to six. A block by Big Zoo hardened to 198 00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:37.120 Kawhi for an easy dunk and transition, and just like that is a four 199 00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:41.960 point game. Another dunk by Big Zoo, a jumper by PG thirteen to 200 00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:46.240 tie it, a hard and three, a PGS steal and dunk with the 201 00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:50.519 right hand. So defense leading to offense all of a sudden, and then 202 00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:54.480 it was just pick and roll, high pick and roll, Viza Zubats and 203 00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:58.960 James Harden. Niko Levusevich didn't know what to do with it. He wanted 204 00:14:58.960 --> 00:15:01.840 to play drop, but you got to keep both guys in front of you, 205 00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:05.320 the ball handler and the roller. He couldn't execute. He's not a 206 00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:09.519 great defender. Clippers took advantage of that. They went from down sixty seven 207 00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:15.600 to fifty seven to up seventy six to seventy one after a nineteen to four 208 00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:20.559 run in that third quarter. Busy Bones hit a big three pointer near the 209 00:15:20.679 --> 00:15:26.360 end of the third, but a Kobe White three would eventually have Chicago still 210 00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:28.080 up by two heading into the fourth, But the Clippers had cut into that 211 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:33.159 fourteen point lead. They were down by just two heading into the final period, 212 00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:35.559 and then their defense got even better. They didn't give up a field 213 00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:41.600 goal till about the seven to thirty mark of that fourth quarter, just elite 214 00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:46.919 defense by the Clippers clamping down. Andre Drummin hit a free throw, but 215 00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:52.799 the first field goal came with a Kobe White three at the seven thirty one 216 00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:56.879 mark of the fourth quarter, after the Clippers all of a sudden had a 217 00:15:56.879 --> 00:16:00.759 six point lead, making an eight point lead, so that would cut it 218 00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:06.080 to five. The Clippers continued to play very sound defense on the fourth quarter 219 00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:10.919 against a team that had been very clutch recently, a team that operates in 220 00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:14.200 a half court set. They only gave up seventeen points in the fourth. 221 00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:18.360 The Bulls went five of twenty two from the field in the final twelve minutes. 222 00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:23.120 Kawhi Leonard would get back into the ballgame with Big Zoo, who had 223 00:16:23.159 --> 00:16:30.679 a huge just performance tonight today. That was due, I said, after 224 00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:34.440 two days off. I wondered if the illness had would pass as Viats zoobots 225 00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:38.720 didn't look right still on Wednesday dealing with that flu. Wonder if that's what 226 00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:44.240 coach lou has now. But well, he only had two points in the 227 00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:48.840 fourth quarter. His defense, his rebounding James Harden was still running the show. 228 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:53.639 He finishes with the triple double. Norman Powell with that driving donk Off 229 00:16:53.639 --> 00:17:00.320 of PG feed, who also had some nice dishes in this ballgame. Paul 230 00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:03.079 George with eight assists, three turnovers. He led them with twenty two points 231 00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:08.200 each of sixteen, shooting two of six from the outside. Slowly but surely, 232 00:17:08.279 --> 00:17:12.880 he's rounding back into form coming off that knee injury that left knee soreness. 233 00:17:12.880 --> 00:17:17.319 He's looking more and more like himself. For the last five games for 234 00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:22.599 PG thirteen, he's basically been averaging about twenty three on fifty percent shooting. 235 00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:29.240 That's what we like to see. I just like the fact that this team 236 00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:33.240 has been operating at their best when their best is required. No, you 237 00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:36.799 don't want to see them get down double digits, but it's good to know 238 00:17:36.880 --> 00:17:40.680 they can still dig out of these holes. Do they have to be better 239 00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:45.559 against top flight competition? Of course they do. Against the Bucks tomorrow, 240 00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:49.359 we'll see who's available for the Clippers. Guys. I'm not trying to complain. 241 00:17:49.720 --> 00:17:53.119 I'm not trying to make a stink about it. I'm not trying to 242 00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:59.119 belabor the point. But there's one team I believe that's playing a back to 243 00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:06.839 back this weekend is the Clippers, with home matinees and a spring forward clock 244 00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:12.119 change coming up tomorrow, two games in twenty two hours. It's ridiculous. 245 00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:18.680 It is so where it is their third billing at Crypto. But this is 246 00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:27.559 the coup de gras of the NBA not caring about the Clippers here and player 247 00:18:27.640 --> 00:18:33.920 safety. If you don't want guys to rest, if you don't want load 248 00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:37.559 management, how about not scheduling so many three and fours for the Clippers five 249 00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:42.079 and sevens most in the NBA, and then also two games within twenty two 250 00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:48.480 hours. How about that. It's just been this way for so long. 251 00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:53.119 But this is just the cherry on top of that. You know what, 252 00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:59.079 Sunday unbelievable. They got to play a game tomorrow when Milwaukee sits and waits. 253 00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:03.640 They played the Lakers last night. They're stewing they lost a game to 254 00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:07.880 the Lakers without Lebron. It's just if there's ever a game that feels like 255 00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:12.559 a schedule loss, Yeah, feels like that game that the Clippers need. 256 00:19:14.759 --> 00:19:19.119 After giving up a sixteen point lead against Milwaukee earlier this week, when they 257 00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:23.359 didn't have Giannis and Dennakompo, they blew that one, no doubt shouldn't have 258 00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:27.799 happened. And now they got to face that same team with Giannis. We're 259 00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:33.880 assuming tomorrow. Paul George played forty minutes, Kawhi played thirty eight, James 260 00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:41.880 Harden at thirty four. I mean, I just I was about to say 261 00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:45.440 the wrong phone number eight seven seven five to two zero eleven fifty eight seven 262 00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:48.200 seven five to two zero eleven fifty here on Clippers stopped on the Patriot. 263 00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:52.839 When the Dodgers are on a five seventy, you will find us here on 264 00:19:52.880 --> 00:19:57.039 AM eleven fifty. Let's start things off with Sean and Inglewood after the Clippers 265 00:19:57.039 --> 00:20:00.200 come back down fourteen and win one twelve to one, O two over the 266 00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:04.480 Bulls. Hey, Sean, what's up? What's up? Is? First 267 00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:08.240 of all, thank you Adam. You are just amazing person. You You've 268 00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:12.079 sent me out some tickets for today's game. They were awesome seats. It 269 00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:17.799 was so much fun. I had from Carlo Jimetez there to help get you 270 00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:21.680 those seats. But I appreciate it. Sean, and I told you I 271 00:20:21.720 --> 00:20:23.559 owed you some seats at some point this season it would happen. You got 272 00:20:23.599 --> 00:20:30.440 to see a big victory body at the Clippers today. Glassists mus gracias Uh. 273 00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:36.920 The old atmosphere was wonderful, as a lot of kids there today And 274 00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:41.200 it's funny thing. I'm sitting there thinking, are they really Amplewaukee tomorrow afternoons? 275 00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:45.119 Is like, like you said, I will go ahead with you and 276 00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:51.039 join you. They have a built in excuse for whatever happens tomorrow. I'm 277 00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:53.799 not holding it against Sean's byes. Let's call it what it is. They're 278 00:20:53.799 --> 00:20:59.119 playing the bulls and it's bull you know what I mean? How does this 279 00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:04.000 happen? We're doing pregame at eleven tomorrow, which is really noon, so 280 00:21:04.960 --> 00:21:11.200 they're tipping off at noon after today, tipping off at one, like they're 281 00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:14.799 really tipping off at eleven tomorrow. I guess when you spring forward, it's 282 00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:18.640 just it's right, and they just hate us. Okay, that's what it 283 00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:22.160 is, and you know, we'll get our own house and things will work 284 00:21:22.200 --> 00:21:26.240 out better for us. But hey, I don't blame them. They played 285 00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:30.160 with hard and they won this game, and you got to just win this 286 00:21:30.279 --> 00:21:34.519 game and tomorrow, hopefully maybe Milwaukee Wire party hard tonight and be stupid and 287 00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:38.319 then show up at the game with a little bit blasted and you know, 288 00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:44.160 maybe we can steal one. Okay, So that's what I'm hoping for and 289 00:21:44.359 --> 00:21:48.920 basically hope. I'll be remiss if I don't mention Bones Highland stepping up. 290 00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:53.559 Okay, So yeah, we're seeing him grow and of course feeling a little 291 00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:57.440 bit more confident out there with the playing time, So bravo. Bones will 292 00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:02.799 probably see a lot of Bones tomorrow, So that'd be a good thing. 293 00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:07.720 Yeah, and you never know, you never know. The chips are down 294 00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:10.480 with you know, you never know. Maybe they'll pull that one out too, 295 00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:14.599 but you're dot they got guys that can step up. Bones only ended 296 00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:18.039 up playing thirteen minutes. I agree with you, he'll get more run tomorrow. 297 00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:22.119 Mirek Coffee only played fifteen. He'll get more run tomorrow. Daniel Tye 298 00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:25.799 at twenty one. We didn't even see Mason Plumley. He'll likely have to 299 00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:30.279 play. If Giannis is playing, you're gonna need him, Tye, VITASU 300 00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:34.640 Bots probably all three of them. Big Zoo though, this was the best 301 00:22:34.680 --> 00:22:37.599 he has looked really since coming back, not just from the illness but since 302 00:22:37.640 --> 00:22:41.880 the calf injury. Was sixteen and nine. He led them with a plus 303 00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:45.240 eighteen out there, as he was on the court when they made their run 304 00:22:45.279 --> 00:22:49.519 in the third quarter and then when they put the bulls away in the fourth 305 00:22:49.599 --> 00:22:55.720 quarter. But Bones Highland, I've been talking about him. I called him 306 00:22:55.720 --> 00:23:00.200 the skeleton key before the season even started. Just had a feeling that this 307 00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:03.400 guy could be very impactful for the Clippers because of how he looked on the 308 00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:07.119 preseason and then the first couple of games in the regular season before they brought 309 00:23:07.160 --> 00:23:11.440 in James Harden. Obviously that changed everything. He wasn't gonna get minutes. 310 00:23:11.480 --> 00:23:18.200 Then with the injury to Russell Westbrook, it's created an opportunity in Bones. 311 00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:22.519 He's had to step up. He has. All three of his makes were 312 00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:25.960 from three. He went three of three. At one point this season, 313 00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:29.319 he had missed fifteen straight. Now, there was a huge gap in time 314 00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:33.160 between some of those misses as he was just completely out of the rotation. 315 00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:37.200 A couple of garbage time minutes here and there, but nothing significant. So 316 00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:41.880 he's really just getting back into the groove. So today to see him be 317 00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:48.599 perfect from the outside, that's quite the development. That could be huge for 318 00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:52.880 them with this March schedule where they are now four and one to start off 319 00:23:52.880 --> 00:23:57.200 the seventeen games in thirty one days here in March. I just I think 320 00:23:57.240 --> 00:24:02.279 Bones Highland is exactly what you need during the dog days like we've seen right 321 00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:04.720 now with this Clippers team, where you're a little bit tired, or maybe 322 00:24:04.759 --> 00:24:10.799 you got one eye on the playoffs and you got a veteran team and older 323 00:24:10.839 --> 00:24:14.240 guys. I just want to get to that seven game series. You need 324 00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:18.799 someone who can provide the electricity, the juice out there. Bones also had 325 00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:23.680 three steals. I'm telling you, this guy it's a different element and different 326 00:24:23.720 --> 00:24:27.759 dimension than what Russell Westbrook brings because of his shooting, because of the way 327 00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:32.880 he can spread the floor, and I believe he had two of those threes, 328 00:24:32.920 --> 00:24:34.640 at least one of them. Early in the fourth quarter. He and 329 00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:37.880 Norm were both putting them up from the outside. I was concerned about that 330 00:24:37.920 --> 00:24:44.319 lineup and have been at times because obviously they're both small, undersized, and 331 00:24:44.359 --> 00:24:47.200 when those two are out there, your point of attack defense is going to 332 00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:51.720 suffer. But you got to outscore guys. That's how you deal with it. 333 00:24:49.839 --> 00:24:53.319 It was Norm hitting one, then Bones hitting one, then Norm hitting 334 00:24:53.359 --> 00:24:57.839 a three point or king of the fourth, but Bones hit that three near 335 00:24:57.880 --> 00:25:02.799 the end of the third quarter.

Clippers do it again, this time against Chicago. 344 00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:48.200 I'm Adam Oslin. You're listening to clipperstock here on the Patriot AM eleven fifty. 345 00:25:49.079 --> 00:25:55.160 LA Clippers Basketball is on the two one three Era continues. You're listening 346 00:25:55.200 --> 00:26:00.839 to the LA Clippers on the LA Clippers Audio Network. Clippers win game one 347 00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:04.319 of two games and twenty two hours. They come back down fourteen against Chicago. 348 00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:07.000 They went at home one twelve to one oh two. They're taking on 349 00:26:07.039 --> 00:26:12.200 the Walkee Bucks from Crypto. Tomorrow. Tip Off is at noon, pregame 350 00:26:12.279 --> 00:26:17.559 is at eleven. We lose an hour of sleep as we spring forward here, 351 00:26:18.039 --> 00:26:21.240 welcome back into Clippers Stock. I'm out of Mosland. You're listening to 352 00:26:21.240 --> 00:26:23.559 Clippers Stock on the Patriot AM eleven fifty. This is where we will be 353 00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:29.440 when the Dodgers are on a five to seventy LA Sports. Eight seven seven 354 00:26:29.519 --> 00:26:32.920 five two zero eleven fifty is the new phone number. Eight seven seven five 355 00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:37.880 two zero eleven fifty. Kawhi Leonard had six of his nineteen points in the 356 00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:41.519 fourth quarter, eight of fifteen from the field, just took one to three 357 00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:45.480 pointers. The calls are coming in now. People are learning this new number 358 00:26:45.519 --> 00:26:48.720 here. So maybe even though he played thirty eight minutes, he only had 359 00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:52.680 to take fifteen shots. It wasn't as taxing of a thirty eight minutes performance 360 00:26:52.680 --> 00:26:57.039 from Kuhi as you could see, and that bodes well for tomorrow. I 361 00:26:57.039 --> 00:27:00.880 don't know. I'm not blaming this team or anyone if they're not able to 362 00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:06.960 go, if they only play twenty minutes, is this what you want? 363 00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:10.039 NBA? Two games in twenty two hours? I mean, come on, 364 00:27:10.079 --> 00:27:12.200 what are we doing? Yeah, I'm gonna keep pitching about it. I 365 00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:21.200 really am don't care. Let's go to jose in Downey. You're on Clippers 366 00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:25.079 Stoff without a marslin, Jose, turn off your radio. You are on 367 00:27:25.160 --> 00:27:30.359 the radio. Now? How you doing at him? Man? What a 368 00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:33.480 what a game to come back? Brother? I like I'd like the energy 369 00:27:33.519 --> 00:27:38.200 that Paul George brought in that second half, just being scrappy on the defensive 370 00:27:38.200 --> 00:27:42.359 side, asking for the ball, give it to me. I'm gonna go 371 00:27:42.440 --> 00:27:45.319 up there and score. Hey, Jose, what do I always say and 372 00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:49.559 aggressive? Paul George is my favorite? Paul georgege You know Paul George is 373 00:27:49.839 --> 00:27:52.640 is my guy. I mean, obviously you don't know my friends, but 374 00:27:52.720 --> 00:27:56.000 I mean I always say, it's gonna hang on Paul George, man, 375 00:27:56.160 --> 00:28:02.200 and it shows that it just I would I love to see just this energy 376 00:28:02.359 --> 00:28:06.240 from everybody on the team to start a game, man, to start a 377 00:28:06.279 --> 00:28:08.680 game. Let's just start that way. They wouldn't get down big. And 378 00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:11.839 I love the way that they use Zoo. I know you like the way 379 00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:15.359 they use Zoo all the when they use them big, and they gotta keep 380 00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:19.839 using them. Tomorrow would be a great time to use him in that page. 381 00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:26.319 I have been asking in the clutch in these games where teams have come 382 00:28:26.359 --> 00:28:30.279 back on them recently and really since the Viza Zubats came back from the calf 383 00:28:30.359 --> 00:28:36.039 injury for the Clippers to get that refresher course on who a Viza Zubats is 384 00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:41.079 and how they got on a run this season where they won twenty six of 385 00:28:41.640 --> 00:28:44.759 thirty one games when they were playing their best basketball. What were they doing 386 00:28:45.400 --> 00:28:49.720 running high pick and roll with a Viza Zubots. They finally cut back to 387 00:28:49.759 --> 00:28:56.079 it as they should and just spammed it, especially in the second half of 388 00:28:56.119 --> 00:29:00.480 this one when offenses isn't working. And mind you of each A Zubos had 389 00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:03.200 their first two buckets and then they kind of just went away from him. 390 00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:08.119 Get it back to Zoo. He can be a security blanket, a bailout 391 00:29:08.160 --> 00:29:15.000 guy. He is a weapon on offense now and they just forget about him 392 00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:19.680 sometimes. It's the strangest thing. He's too important to this team. He's 393 00:29:19.680 --> 00:29:25.799 at worst their fourth most important player. If you're gonna win a championship, 394 00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:30.240 big Zoo has to stay involved, and big men always give you a better 395 00:29:30.279 --> 00:29:33.759 effort on the defensive end when you get them involved on the offensive side. 396 00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:41.039 So he seeing him and James Harden running the pick and roll to perfection against 397 00:29:41.200 --> 00:29:45.720 Niko Lavuslovich as Petris Pavadekos would say in the second half, that's it. 398 00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:51.519 That's what I've wanted. Why make it harder than it needs to be now? 399 00:29:51.559 --> 00:29:56.559 Really, it's started against Houston Wednesday with Zoos still not feeling well. 400 00:29:56.680 --> 00:30:02.519 With Mason Plumley and James Harden running high, pick and roll. The offense 401 00:30:02.559 --> 00:30:04.839 flows off of that. That's how you get great looks, great shots. 402 00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:11.640 That's how you compromise the defense. That's it. Get to it earlier in 403 00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:15.160 the shot clock. And this Clippers team can beat anyone and score on anyone. 404 00:30:17.039 --> 00:30:18.279 I don't know what takes them so long to get to it. Sometimes 405 00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:23.359 it's a little bit confounding. Mitching New Jersey. You're on Clippers stock without 406 00:30:23.359 --> 00:30:27.920 a maslin here on the Patriot Ambloman fifty. So Mitch, how you doing 407 00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:32.079 Anna? I love these doing games for three, three, four o'clock. 408 00:30:33.480 --> 00:30:40.240 Yeah, great for you. Not for the Clippers. Play till one play 409 00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:42.160 at doubleheader. It's almost you know, it's like you say, losing the 410 00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:47.240 hours late. I play two, so they have in more ways of game. 411 00:30:47.319 --> 00:30:51.440 Anyway, I won't keep plumbing in it too, you know, play 412 00:30:51.440 --> 00:30:56.160 all the two you get three good big guys agree with Evaka and I'm glad 413 00:30:56.200 --> 00:31:02.960 that James Harding is shown. I love these pack twelve guys name in Westbrook, 414 00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:14.440 No Norman play and hopefully the rest of the year. Iry no no 415 00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:19.160 No. I like the Pat twelve guys as well. Pat twelve forever big 416 00:31:19.200 --> 00:31:23.000 ten guys now, I guess a lot of in a lot of them in 417 00:31:23.079 --> 00:31:26.519 this game, even went without Zach Lavine, who's out for the season with 418 00:31:26.559 --> 00:31:30.880 that foot injury for the Chicago Bulls. But again, they've been playing much 419 00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:37.640 better. Their offense was tenth in the last ten games. They had the 420 00:31:37.680 --> 00:31:44.039 second best clutch rating since December first, second to who the Clippers, and 421 00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:48.799 they just completely shut them down in the fourth quarter. That was impressive. 422 00:31:51.640 --> 00:31:55.880 That was a Clippers team that was playing five guys on a string that was 423 00:31:55.920 --> 00:32:01.039 blowing up whatever actions the Chicago Bulls were throwing at them. Really liked what 424 00:32:01.079 --> 00:32:05.319 we saw. To the point where Jordan Miller and Kobe Brown got out there 425 00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:07.400 for less than a minute. We'll take it. Get the young guys a 426 00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:12.200 little bit of run. But the defensive effort in the second half night and 427 00:32:12.279 --> 00:32:15.599 day different than what we saw in the first half from the Clippers. And 428 00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:19.920 also the Clippers took care of the basketball in the second half. They had 429 00:32:19.960 --> 00:32:23.079 ten turnovers in the first half, Chicago only had five in the first twenty 430 00:32:23.119 --> 00:32:27.960 four minutes. The Clippers ended up with just three in the second half. 431 00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:34.160 Chicago had seven. That changed things. At one point, Chicago got up 432 00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:38.240 nine more shots, maybe ten more shot attempts than the Clippers, and they 433 00:32:38.319 --> 00:32:44.119 ended up cutting into that and it was just eighty six eighty four in terms 434 00:32:44.119 --> 00:32:49.799 of shot disparity. Chicago only got up two more. The Clippers started to 435 00:32:49.880 --> 00:32:53.440 knock down some threes after starting cold, but they still haven't looked right on 436 00:32:53.519 --> 00:32:58.319 that end, and I am waiting for an onslaught of three balls that started 437 00:32:58.319 --> 00:33:02.519 falling for the Clippers because they're more the do This was their thirteenth game since 438 00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:08.160 the Grammy road trip. They're seven and six now since then. They haven't 439 00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:15.640 looked great coming into this one. The last twelve games they were about twentieth 440 00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:22.880 on offense, twentieth defensively, and they're really only putting together a half of 441 00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:27.559 great basketball, a quarter of great basketball here and there. They're getting by. 442 00:33:27.640 --> 00:33:32.400 They're treading water. But my belief is the Denver Nuggets are coming for 443 00:33:32.480 --> 00:33:37.720 the one seed in the West. They look different since the All Star Break. 444 00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:45.400 They've only lost one game. They just beat Boston and they're the champs. 445 00:33:45.759 --> 00:33:50.000 They know what it takes, and they have three more games against the 446 00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:55.880 Minnesota Timberwolves. They're right above them in the two spot. Okay, see 447 00:33:55.920 --> 00:34:01.599 currently is at the top of the West. The problem is that if Denver 448 00:34:01.720 --> 00:34:06.519 does get the one seed, you don't want to be in the four spot, 449 00:34:06.680 --> 00:34:10.079 where the Clippers currently are, because that means you would face them in 450 00:34:10.119 --> 00:34:15.960 the second round. You would rather get the Nuggets in the Western Conference finals 451 00:34:15.480 --> 00:34:20.920 after hopefully they're worn down a little bit, then in the second round. 452 00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:25.599 That's just not ideal. The Clippers are a game and a half behind them 453 00:34:25.880 --> 00:34:30.280 Denver, a half game behind Minnesota in the two spot, in one full 454 00:34:30.320 --> 00:34:36.079 game behind the Oklahoma City Thunder, but they have the easiest schedule left of 455 00:34:36.159 --> 00:34:39.280 all four of the top teams, including your Clippers in the Western Conference. 456 00:34:40.519 --> 00:34:45.440 That's where those teams are right now and look great win for the Clippers because 457 00:34:45.679 --> 00:34:49.840 New Orleans is behind them in the five spot. They're currently three and a 458 00:34:49.880 --> 00:34:53.320 half games behind them now for the Clippers victory, and they've been surging too. 459 00:34:54.199 --> 00:34:58.280 You don't want to drop to five. No no, no, no, 460 00:34:58.280 --> 00:35:01.079 no, no no. This is not the way I've been saying all 461 00:35:01.159 --> 00:35:07.000 year and four years. Be a top three seed. Now you can live 462 00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:12.239 with four if Denver's not the number one seed. In fact, I wouldn't 463 00:35:12.239 --> 00:35:16.440 hate that because if the Okac Thunder are the one seed, that's the team 464 00:35:16.480 --> 00:35:20.519 you could see in the second round. Be careful what you wish for. 465 00:35:20.639 --> 00:35:23.639 Of course, that wouldn't be easy by any stretch of the imagination. Shay 466 00:35:23.800 --> 00:35:29.639 might be the MVP. It's probably between him and Yokich, whoever finishes first 467 00:35:29.760 --> 00:35:35.800 in the West. Team wise, either Jokich or SGA will get the MVP 468 00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:40.079 out of it. But if the Clippers are fourth and the standings end up 469 00:35:40.119 --> 00:35:44.079 how they are right now, with Denver in front of them, Minnesota in 470 00:35:44.119 --> 00:35:46.960 front of Denver, and then Oka see in that one spot. That means 471 00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:52.079 it would be uh, Minnesota and Denver if they win their first round matchups 472 00:35:52.280 --> 00:35:55.159 facing off in the second round. Hey, they can beat each other to 473 00:35:55.199 --> 00:36:00.159 hell, right, Let them beat each other up up and then you take 474 00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:04.800 the winner in the Western Conference finals if the Clippers are lucky enough to get 475 00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:08.880 there, so a lot to be decided nineteen games left, Clippers are forty 476 00:36:08.920 --> 00:36:14.840 one and twenty one on the season. They come back down fourteen against Chicago. 477 00:36:15.079 --> 00:36:16.480 They win one twelve to one O two. With the game coming up 478 00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:21.400 tomorrow, more Clippers talk next, we're looking for postgame audio from the head 479 00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:25.039 coach, and by head coach, I mean the fill in interim head coach 480 00:36:25.079 --> 00:36:30.360 today the associate head coach, and Dan Craig as coach Lou's under the weather 481 00:36:30.599 --> 00:36:35.760 get well coach Lou eight seven seven five to two zero eleven fifty eight seven 482 00:36:35.880 --> 00:36:38.159 seven five to two zero eleven fifty. As you are listening to Clippers Talk 483 00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:44.559 here on the Patriot M eleven fifty, LA Clippers Basketball is on the two 484 00:36:44.559 --> 00:36:49.559 one three era continues. You're listening to the LA Clippers on the LA Clippers 485 00:36:49.880 --> 00:36:57.599 Audio Network, hashtag Clippers come back again. They were down fourteen. They 486 00:36:57.639 --> 00:37:00.360 go on to win one twelve to one O two over the Chicago Bulls at 487 00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:06.440 home on the front end of a matinee home back to back while losing an 488 00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:09.639 hour. As they take on the Bucks tomorrow, Welcome back into Clippers Talk 489 00:37:09.679 --> 00:37:14.400 here on the Patriot AM eleven fifty. I'm at a Mosland eight seven seven, 490 00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:16.519 five to two zero eleven fifty is the phone number. But joining the 491 00:37:16.519 --> 00:37:22.639 show right now is big Chuck Mockler even coming back just like the Clippers did 492 00:37:22.800 --> 00:37:27.199 on a win by this team. It's it's a rare it's a rare appearance 493 00:37:27.239 --> 00:37:30.639 from Chuck Mockler after a win, but we will take it. Charles, 494 00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:34.199 thanks for doing this, Hey, thanks for having me a bit of a 495 00:37:34.599 --> 00:37:38.360 I mean, I don't think, not totally unexpected Walkey starting for the Clippers, 496 00:37:38.400 --> 00:37:42.079 but it's good to get the win with what's what they have to do 497 00:37:42.119 --> 00:37:45.079 tomorrow. Yeah, they were down by eleven in the first quarter, they 498 00:37:45.119 --> 00:37:50.239 were down by eleven at the half, they were down by fourteen early in 499 00:37:50.280 --> 00:37:52.760 the third, but they surged ahead. I felt like it was their defense 500 00:37:52.800 --> 00:37:57.679 that ramped up, got them into their offense, which they did started executing 501 00:37:57.760 --> 00:38:00.960 much better. They ran high pick and roll. It's like they have this 502 00:38:00.079 --> 00:38:05.599 way to beat teams that is fairly simple, and sometimes they just go away 503 00:38:05.599 --> 00:38:08.679 from it for whatever reason. But would James Harden, being the master of 504 00:38:08.679 --> 00:38:13.079 the pick and roll and throwing these between the league passes to have eatsa zoo 505 00:38:13.079 --> 00:38:15.519 boss When they utilize Zoo like that, they're a really tough team to beat. 506 00:38:17.199 --> 00:38:21.840 Yeah, it was great to these Zoo have the second half that he 507 00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:24.079 did. For sure. He went to five for five on the second half, 508 00:38:25.079 --> 00:38:28.880 which was huge. And he looked you know, I thought he looked 509 00:38:28.880 --> 00:38:31.599 a little skinnier maybe lately, just maybe that's few being sick and whatnot. 510 00:38:31.679 --> 00:38:36.920 But you know, the team was still kind of talking about him getting back 511 00:38:36.960 --> 00:38:40.199 to game shape and whatnot. Just under twenty five minutes today. But I 512 00:38:40.199 --> 00:38:45.199 mean plus eighteen, you know, plus nine us doesn't always tell the full 513 00:38:45.239 --> 00:38:47.960 story, but I think it told that helps tell the story of how valuable 514 00:38:49.000 --> 00:38:52.519 Zoos today, especially in the second half. Yeah, he finished with sixteen 515 00:38:52.559 --> 00:38:54.480 and nine, seven of nine from the field. He had the first two 516 00:38:54.480 --> 00:38:58.840 buckets for the Clippers, and they kind of went away from him and just 517 00:38:59.159 --> 00:39:00.920 forgot about him for a little bit, but they executed near the end of 518 00:39:00.920 --> 00:39:05.800 that third quarter. It was him. It was James Harden just abusing Nikola 519 00:39:06.159 --> 00:39:08.400 vussa bitch out there. I'm just glad of Beats. Zubats is still in 520 00:39:08.440 --> 00:39:12.519 the starting lineup, and you know, Daniel Tice isn't quite there yet. 521 00:39:12.559 --> 00:39:15.519 Good off the bench, And I did like the fact that this was another 522 00:39:15.519 --> 00:39:17.960 game where you see what Mason Plumley was able to do on Wednesday, and 523 00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:22.480 it was still Daniel Tye's turn, and I thought he was solid out there. 524 00:39:22.519 --> 00:39:24.840 But if both these guys can stay ready like this where one of them 525 00:39:24.920 --> 00:39:29.559 will be used in a ball game as the backup, I think you're good. 526 00:39:29.599 --> 00:39:34.280 I think you're solid. Yeah. The Clippers center rotation was such an 527 00:39:34.280 --> 00:39:37.159 issue coming into this season, and they really did do a great job to 528 00:39:37.199 --> 00:39:40.320 solidify it. It's been a little wonky as of late. You know, 529 00:39:40.440 --> 00:39:46.039 Tye not the best shooting night tonight or this afternoon. Excuse me, but 530 00:39:46.039 --> 00:39:49.800 you're right. If they can kind of pick their spots and be able to 531 00:39:49.840 --> 00:39:52.400 contribute when they're called upon, the Clippers will be good. We're also, 532 00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:55.480 I think, all hoping that Ze's minutes for games goes up in the playoffs. 533 00:39:55.519 --> 00:39:59.039 Every one of the main guys this minute is going to go up. 534 00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:04.320 I really hope that Jews does as well, or maybe get shifted more towards 535 00:40:04.320 --> 00:40:09.440 closing games. But still quite a few games ago before then. Charles pie 536 00:40:09.519 --> 00:40:14.480 Face just hit me up on X at follow out of May. Maybe I'm 537 00:40:14.480 --> 00:40:15.679 gonna throw this one to you. I'm just gonna pass it off? He 538 00:40:15.760 --> 00:40:20.760 said, where was Plumbly this game? And why don't they pair Tyson Plumbley 539 00:40:20.840 --> 00:40:24.159 when going against lengthier teams? Why don't they do it? Joke? I 540 00:40:24.159 --> 00:40:30.480 don't think you very plumbly against lengthier teams because the offense becomes an absolute nightmare. 541 00:40:30.039 --> 00:40:35.840 We know that type can shoot and will shoot, but that doesn't mean 542 00:40:35.880 --> 00:40:39.199 that the space thing is necessarily going to be better and defensively, I don't 543 00:40:39.199 --> 00:40:44.119 know if Tys can hang with a lengthy athletic four. Where are you having 544 00:40:44.199 --> 00:40:46.679 issues with guys like Kawhi Leonard and Paul George doing that. I don't think 545 00:40:46.760 --> 00:40:52.199 Daniel Tyson can do any better a job there, and Mason Plumley has just 546 00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:55.519 not been very consistent lately. So there's a lot of weird discourse around the 547 00:40:55.519 --> 00:41:00.079 center rotation. The answer is just playing zoomore and then sure, I do 548 00:41:00.159 --> 00:41:04.320 agree against bigger teams, maybe Mason Plumby should come in and get the run 549 00:41:04.360 --> 00:41:07.719 instead of Daniel Tye. There's just no reason for those two people to ever 550 00:41:07.760 --> 00:41:10.039 be on the court together. Good answer, pie to the face. That's 551 00:41:10.039 --> 00:41:15.440 what they call him, pie face. So Bowse Hyland goes three of three. 552 00:41:15.639 --> 00:41:20.519 From distance. He may have got the poor shooting out of him. 553 00:41:20.519 --> 00:41:22.599 He may have found his rhythm in this game. I felt like the way 554 00:41:22.639 --> 00:41:27.280 he was turning the corner last game and get into the basket was big. 555 00:41:27.360 --> 00:41:30.199 But now the three point shot is starting to come back. This is somebody 556 00:41:30.360 --> 00:41:34.880 who can pull up off the bounce and knock them down from the outside a 557 00:41:35.119 --> 00:41:38.360 high volume and with nice efficiency when he's in a groove. I think he 558 00:41:38.480 --> 00:41:44.360 may be getting there now. Yeah, he was on the floor with norm 559 00:41:44.360 --> 00:41:46.599 a little bit tonight, which is always a bit of a you know, 560 00:41:46.719 --> 00:41:51.880 adventure defensively, but both those guys ended up playing pretty solid. One wasn't 561 00:41:51.880 --> 00:41:55.320 super hot from three, but defensively wasn't horrible from this pairing. Yeah, 562 00:41:55.360 --> 00:41:58.639 Bodes could do it off the bounce, which is great. I didn't. 563 00:41:58.679 --> 00:42:00.360 I can't remember if he had to catch shoot three in this one, but 564 00:42:00.400 --> 00:42:02.960 that's gonna be something to kind of look for for Bones too. He has 565 00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:08.320 a similar thing with Hard maybe being a little you know, not comfortable doing 566 00:42:08.360 --> 00:42:12.639 that yet, but he did exactly what the Clippers are going to need him 567 00:42:12.679 --> 00:42:15.920 to do from here on, which is play around fifteen minutes, not be 568 00:42:16.000 --> 00:42:20.199 a complete sieve on defense and then be a fisher that offense. He was 569 00:42:20.199 --> 00:42:23.360 efficient as possible today, which was a really long way to help the Clippers. 570 00:42:24.159 --> 00:42:28.559 But yeah, he's rounding in the form a little quicker than maybe we 571 00:42:28.639 --> 00:42:31.719 thought. And that's probably because you know, he is the youngest contributor on 572 00:42:31.760 --> 00:42:35.400 the team. So it is ietime. Saw the young legs out there. 573 00:42:35.679 --> 00:42:38.559 We hashtag skeleton key. How dare you an? He had three steals in 574 00:42:38.639 --> 00:42:44.119 this one. Paul George also had three blocks and two steals, eight assists 575 00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:46.800 of three turnovers, twenty two points eight of sixteen shooting. Really, four 576 00:42:46.840 --> 00:42:52.199 of his last five games have been very solid overall from Paul George. He 577 00:42:52.360 --> 00:42:57.480 also is starting to get back into the type of rhythm and timing he was 578 00:42:57.519 --> 00:43:00.800 in before the knee injury, before the growing issue before that. But his 579 00:43:00.920 --> 00:43:06.559 defense also on Damar Derozen when he was trying to pick on Norm Powell early 580 00:43:06.599 --> 00:43:08.599 in that first half, when he was just going after him left and right. 581 00:43:08.760 --> 00:43:12.199 I think Paul George and his defense was nice in this game. But 582 00:43:12.440 --> 00:43:16.000 finding the touch now also, yeah he had a couple of lapses on d 583 00:43:16.199 --> 00:43:23.480 but you know it's noon game whatever. Yeah, finding guys to this afternoon 584 00:43:23.519 --> 00:43:27.159 was really cool to see from punters nine as sixths, which feels like the 585 00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:30.760 most he'd had in a very long time, and it's just not usually his 586 00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:34.440 game, so he was playing with good awareness today. He did pass up 587 00:43:34.440 --> 00:43:37.079 with three at one point and going for the lay up and he converted it, 588 00:43:37.079 --> 00:43:39.639 which was really cool to see. He did not have a good shooting 589 00:43:40.119 --> 00:43:44.119 afternoon. Who knows if he's going to play tomorrow, but we hope it's 590 00:43:44.119 --> 00:43:47.480 a little better on Tuesday. But yeah, he's for all the noise around 591 00:43:47.480 --> 00:43:52.920 PG lately, he's done a good job of he's ramping up well yeah, 592 00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:55.840 basically, well, i'll say gate of sixteen. But I'm with you. 593 00:43:55.920 --> 00:44:00.599 I like the fact that he actually turned down that three and went the basket 594 00:44:00.639 --> 00:44:06.880 and did that eurostep around usavish there last one for you. I've been talking 595 00:44:06.920 --> 00:44:12.079 about it. I've been really hitting on it, probably more than some people 596 00:44:12.119 --> 00:44:16.000 would like. But is it not ridiculous? You play two games in twenty 597 00:44:16.000 --> 00:44:20.079 two hours? Are you kid me? And its Milwaukee tomorrow? How do 598 00:44:20.159 --> 00:44:23.079 the Clippers deal with this? Yeah, it doesn't really make any sense. 599 00:44:23.679 --> 00:44:28.480 I want to give a hat tip to Brian Seman for calling out on the 600 00:44:28.519 --> 00:44:34.639 broadcast kind of about how that goes against the NBA protocol with how you know 601 00:44:34.760 --> 00:44:37.360 often you can actually play games close to each other. So it's I don't 602 00:44:37.400 --> 00:44:42.400 know if it's unprecedented. It might be unprecedented. I can't remember the last 603 00:44:42.440 --> 00:44:45.639 time an NBA team had two games in less than twenty four hours. It 604 00:44:45.639 --> 00:44:50.360 feels like we're like a third tier soccer team or something like that with how 605 00:44:50.440 --> 00:44:54.239 much basketball they're playing. Because also they play again on Tuesday, Like this 606 00:44:54.320 --> 00:45:00.800 is a three and four for the Clips, So we hope they're whoever plays 607 00:45:00.840 --> 00:45:06.159 tomorrow. I hope they get some good rest today or tonight. We don't 608 00:45:06.199 --> 00:45:10.719 know what's gonna happen with Paul, George Harden and Kawhi. I maybe don't 609 00:45:10.719 --> 00:45:14.880 want him to play. I think it's totally fine. I don't think anyone 610 00:45:14.920 --> 00:45:16.360 would blame them for not playing. I hope you don't, because again, 611 00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:21.719 two games in twenty two hours. I just don't know if there's any days 612 00:45:21.719 --> 00:45:24.280 to go off of on this one. Honestly, yeah, I'm not gonna 613 00:45:24.320 --> 00:45:28.519 blame him. If guys don't play in this one. It's absurd because if 614 00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:34.239 somebody ended up getting hurt, the storyline will be how these games were smashed 615 00:45:34.280 --> 00:45:39.199 together and how that never should have happened. Hashtag NBA cares not like what 616 00:45:40.280 --> 00:45:46.920 is going on here? This is just the ultimate just laps by the NBA 617 00:45:47.400 --> 00:45:53.320 in scheduling. It's unbelievable. He is Chuck Machler, Chuck Mockler of Clips 618 00:45:53.400 --> 00:45:58.800 in Dip Fame. We did one for yesterday on the YouTube. Some of 619 00:45:58.800 --> 00:46:01.079 what we talked about kind of came fruition in this ball game, although we 620 00:46:01.079 --> 00:46:06.239 didn't even know who would be available after a bunch of guys were questionable yesterday. 621 00:46:06.880 --> 00:46:10.039 So we'll see what happens tomorrow against the Bucks and who's able to give 622 00:46:10.079 --> 00:46:13.519 it a go. But Charles, thanks for doing this a little Clips and 623 00:46:13.519 --> 00:46:16.079 double Dip here on clipper Stock, thank you, Hey, thanks for having 624 00:46:16.159 --> 00:46:22.760 me here. Here's again in the maybe surprise win tomorrow. Yeah, they're 625 00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:24.400 gonna need it. Uh, They're gonna need guys. I mean, maybe 626 00:46:24.400 --> 00:46:28.119 that's why Jordan Miller and Kobe Brown were getting some run at the end of 627 00:46:28.119 --> 00:46:30.880 this game. Maybe was like, Hey, get ready, get your feet 628 00:46:30.920 --> 00:46:34.679 wet. You could be playing tomorrow. PJ Tucker, you two, and 629 00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:38.960 I'm guessing Mason Plumbley will be playing. He'll get the go against ganis Denn 630 00:46:39.039 --> 00:46:44.679 Kompo. The bigger defender Daniel Tice today against Chicago. So it's kind of 631 00:46:44.679 --> 00:46:47.719 interesting stagger there. I like that, all right, final segment coming up. 632 00:46:47.760 --> 00:46:52.079 Next, Clippers come back down fourteen on the Bulls. They win by 633 00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:54.440 ten, final score one twelve to one oh two. This is Clipper Stock 634 00:46:54.480 --> 00:47:00.360 on the Patriot Am eleven fifty eight six I did it eight seven seven five 635 00:47:00.360 --> 00:47:05.599 to two zero eleven fifty eight seven seven five two zero eleven fifty is the 636 00:47:05.639 --> 00:47:09.119 phone number if you'd like to get on more Clippers off. Next. LA 637 00:47:09.199 --> 00:47:15.280 Clippers basketball is on the two one three Era continues. You're listening to the 638 00:47:15.440 --> 00:47:22.280 LA Clippers on the LA Clippers Audio Network, the comeback Clips, the cardiac 639 00:47:22.360 --> 00:47:25.280 Clips, whatever you want to call them. They did it again, down 640 00:47:25.480 --> 00:47:30.480 fourteen. They win by ten over the Bulls at home, one twelve to 641 00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:37.719 one oh two. Clippers have a game tomorrow, two games within twenty two 642 00:47:38.000 --> 00:47:45.519 hours. Don't know who will be available. If guys rest, If the 643 00:47:45.639 --> 00:47:51.360 NBA doesn't like it, then don't schedule two games that close together. Tough 644 00:47:51.719 --> 00:47:55.679 s. Let's hear from Dan Craig postgame coach lou under the weather, hoping 645 00:47:55.760 --> 00:47:59.199 for the best. Some on the sidelines was wearing a mask. There. 646 00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:02.760 Oh she had head coached. Dan Craig stepped up. He's now you can 647 00:48:02.800 --> 00:48:06.639 say two and oh. After the fourth quarter, he coached the Clippers to 648 00:48:06.719 --> 00:48:08.519 a win in up in San Francisco. He gets the Golden State Warriors right 649 00:48:08.519 --> 00:48:13.000 before the All Star break. They get another victory under Tan Craig. Here 650 00:48:13.039 --> 00:48:15.360 he was post game that second half. There, it seems like you guys 651 00:48:15.360 --> 00:48:19.079 started really really slow. Third quarter, you're able to pick it up thirty 652 00:48:19.119 --> 00:48:22.760 seven twenty eight. Can you talk a little bit about that? Yeah, 653 00:48:22.960 --> 00:48:29.880 just our urgency, I thought, particularly defensively. We came out and really 654 00:48:29.880 --> 00:48:32.440 wanted to put some pressure on the Rows and make him uncomfortable. But it's 655 00:48:32.440 --> 00:48:37.079 his first pick and roll and then just with his back downs, try to 656 00:48:37.119 --> 00:48:39.280 fire and you know, get the ball out of his hands, and that 657 00:48:39.400 --> 00:48:44.320 was allowed us to get out and transition and get a couple of easy ones. 658 00:48:45.559 --> 00:48:47.360 And then I thought, just offensively, just the ball was really popping 659 00:48:49.719 --> 00:48:52.320 and just moving the ball side to side. And talked about it at halftime, 660 00:48:52.440 --> 00:48:55.239 just what to look for just in terms of their coverages and what's going 661 00:48:55.280 --> 00:48:58.960 to be available, and I thought we did a good job of exposing it. 662 00:49:00.079 --> 00:49:05.920 They did. It was evident another second half of the Clippers offense clicked 663 00:49:06.000 --> 00:49:10.320 in. They played much better and the passing was there, a little hot 664 00:49:10.320 --> 00:49:15.400 potato basketball, and Big Zoo was detonating at the rim. Let's hear from 665 00:49:15.480 --> 00:49:21.400 him post games, speaking with Christina Pink on Belly Sports Gina and here he 666 00:49:21.559 --> 00:49:25.320 is joined by Aviatsa zoobots Zoo. I know these early games tough to kind 667 00:49:25.320 --> 00:49:29.880 of get the energy going early, slow start, but what woke you guys 668 00:49:29.960 --> 00:49:32.880 up in that second half? We just wanted to win. We figured out 669 00:49:32.880 --> 00:49:37.760 how we want to play, and at the halftime we were seeing how they 670 00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:40.840 were defending us, so we made our adjustments, got our energy up and 671 00:49:42.280 --> 00:49:45.079 got to win. Speaking of the energy, I know you've been trying to 672 00:49:45.119 --> 00:49:49.159 find that energy back for yourself, getting back to your form again. What 673 00:49:49.360 --> 00:49:52.920 got you going sixteen points, nine rebounds and a whole lot of dunks in 674 00:49:52.000 --> 00:49:57.920 this game? Just feeling better. Every day I feel better. I was 675 00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:02.519 pretty sick last week, so energies getting there, But every day I'm feeling 676 00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:07.280 better and better. It's his back to back double digit comebacks for you, 677 00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:12.119 guys, what is it about this team that you're able to keep composure even 678 00:50:12.119 --> 00:50:15.880 when you're facing big deficit. We just got a bunch of guys who've been 679 00:50:15.920 --> 00:50:21.239 through a lot of situations and they're never gonna panic. Theyn't on what to 680 00:50:21.320 --> 00:50:25.360 do, and we're just just stay with it. We're a tight group and 681 00:50:25.440 --> 00:50:30.320 everyone's staying together, and when we go down like that, we will find 682 00:50:30.360 --> 00:50:36.800 our way to fight back. Clippers backs were against the wall down fourteen. 683 00:50:36.960 --> 00:50:40.920 They came out swinging. Big Zoo was sixteen nine boards, two offensive rebounds. 684 00:50:40.960 --> 00:50:45.559 He was a plus eighteen. He led them in that category, played 685 00:50:45.599 --> 00:50:50.320 twenty four minutes. I hope he's got energy to go tomorrow in game two. 686 00:50:51.000 --> 00:50:53.280 Well, this home stand matinee back to back with the Clippers play two 687 00:50:53.280 --> 00:50:59.000 games in twenty two hours. You know why this doesn't happen to any other 688 00:50:59.079 --> 00:51:07.880 team because it's ridiculous. That's why it's a complete outlier, and it's only 689 00:51:07.880 --> 00:51:09.159 happening to the Clippers. Katie, before we get out of here, let's 690 00:51:09.159 --> 00:51:13.000 get to your casual corner very quickly. Here. It's Katie Newton, our 691 00:51:13.039 --> 00:51:17.199 producer back in Zach Attack was helping us this past week. Katie's back. 692 00:51:17.519 --> 00:51:20.320 You got a question for me? You got something? Yeah? How many 693 00:51:20.400 --> 00:51:23.119 coaches are there on the team? A lot? Okay, then it's a 694 00:51:23.239 --> 00:51:28.960 lot. I guess I'll just use the internet. There's no salary cap for 695 00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:30.760 coaches, so you can bring in a few extra. Different teams could have 696 00:51:30.800 --> 00:51:34.880 more coaches than another. Different teams could have different titles, like the Clippers 697 00:51:34.880 --> 00:51:38.719 do with Dan Craig being the associate head coach. Getting a victory, Congrats 698 00:51:38.760 --> 00:51:45.880 to DC Clippers come back down fourteen. Thanks for your help today as well, 699 00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:47.719 Katie.
