00:00:01.760 --> 00:00:05.960
Parents man is pure once again.
He's Clippers Talk. I got calls on

2
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:11.439
Clippers Talk, a mediate reaction and
analysis to today's game. That's what he's

3
00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:17.280
capable of. Hosted by your pre
and post game voice of the La Clippers,

4
00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:22.839
Adam Ausla kind of wizard. Three
is this as the Clippers and the

5
00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:28.839
game on an eleven oh run and
they win one fifteen to one on nine

6
00:00:28.920 --> 00:00:36.079
over the Washington Wizards for the fourteenth
straight time here in La over Washington.

7
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:40.799
Welcome in the Clippers stock. I'm
Adam Aslin eight six sixty nine eight seven

8
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:45.159
two five seventy eight six six nine
eight seven two five seventy as We're alive

9
00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:48.880
from Crypto dot Com arena. Coming
up, we'll get to your phone calls.

10
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:53.560
We got post game audio as well
from coach Lou and the players after

11
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:57.359
this one. But what a performance, a bounce back performance by the Clippers

12
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:02.079
as a team and by a couple
individ jewels in this one. Reggie Jackson,

13
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:06.640
oh Home, my player to watch, had thirty one. He was

14
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:11.519
six for his last thirty two the
last two games out and he goes twelve

15
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:17.879
of twenty one, five of nine
from distance, had eleven of his thirty

16
00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:21.439
one points in the fourth quarter,
had eight of them in the third quarter.

17
00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:25.879
Hit big shot after big shot.
But speaking of it was Nick Batoum

18
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:30.120
Saint Nick who came through late on
the right wing after an extra pass from

19
00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:34.879
Terrence Man. And that was the
name of the game tonight. The Clippers

20
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:42.000
continuously made the extra pass, turned
down good shots for great shots. They

21
00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:45.480
only had twenty one assists, so
they probably missed some other open shots in

22
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.680
this one as well. But I
mean sixteen to thirty two from the outside,

23
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.480
and that's because so many of them
were wide open. Luke Kennard shooting

24
00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:57.120
from the outside, it's a layup
when there's nobody on him. He went

25
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:00.959
four of seven, and the end
of that third quarter everything changed there.

26
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:06.599
Clippers were down by ten, look
to be going down double digits heading into

27
00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:13.159
the fourth and Terrence Man entered the
game and brought that spark. Was going

28
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:16.240
coast to coast getting downhill, had
a nice reverse layup off a pass from

29
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:20.840
Isaiah Hartenstein. I want to say
the Bigs were great in the short role

30
00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:24.000
with their passes out to shooters and
cutters. Hartenstein and two bus tonight.

31
00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:30.000
But Terrence Man found Luke Kennard for
one of those two three pointers he hit

32
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:34.560
at the end of the third quarter, and it just looked like they were

33
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:38.199
going good Luke hunting out there.
They were trying to make sure to cut

34
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:42.319
into that lead, and it was
through the ball movement. That's what we've

35
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:46.759
talked about a ton when you don't
have your superstars, your great isol players,

36
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:49.280
and they still have some guys that
can do that, and Marcus Morris

37
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:51.919
and Retchie Jackson, of course they
showed that off in the fourth quarter,

38
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:55.319
but without Kauai, Norman Powell,
Paul George, you got to create open

39
00:02:55.400 --> 00:03:00.560
looks through ball movement, and they
were on point in that area tonight.

40
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:05.960
It was hot potato around the perimeter. It was drive kick swing, back

41
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:08.879
to basics, back to what the
Clippers do best. It's when they're at

42
00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:15.439
their best, when they're wreaking havoc
in the paint getting in there. It

43
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.759
starts there, touched the paint,
then spray it out. That's what coach

44
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:22.960
Low always says. And Marcus Morris
had eighteen points in the first half.

45
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:29.400
Clippers still only led by two though
at the break, because defensively they weren't

46
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:31.879
good enough. This is a crazy
stat. I don't know if I've ever

47
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:35.800
seen this before, but the Washington
Wizards, I want to say, with

48
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:38.840
a couple of minutes, you know, maybe ten minutes left in the second

49
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:44.639
quarter, so very early in the
contest, they already had fifteen fast break

50
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:51.719
points. The Clippers, their transition
defense was poor, to say the least.

51
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:55.960
They were turning the ball over.
They eventually fixed that, but they

52
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:00.479
had seven turnovers in the second quarter
alone, and even though they were playing

53
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:05.840
well offensively, defensively, those live
ball turnovers giving teams easy looks and not

54
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:10.439
getting back on defense. When you
make it that easy for them, of

55
00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:14.199
course it's going to be a close
game, and it was throughout, and

56
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:17.519
in fact, the Clippers were down
by five with two and a half minutes

57
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:26.319
left, but they ended the game
on an eleven oh run. Just underscores

58
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:30.639
how clutch this team has been all
season, and they're doing it where Paul

59
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:33.160
George has only played in twenty six
games where they haven't had Kawhi Leonard at

60
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:36.839
all, they only had Norman Powell
for three and their top five in the

61
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:42.519
league. When it comes to clutch
rating, last five minutes of a game

62
00:04:42.759 --> 00:04:46.959
within five points, the Clippers play
their best when their best is required,

63
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:51.839
and defensively, even though for forty
five and a half minutes of this one

64
00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:57.000
they weren't great there. They weren't
great on the boards either. They gave

65
00:04:57.079 --> 00:04:59.720
up three offensive rebounds on the fourth
quarter, and I want to say all

66
00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:03.240
three of them were converted into three
pointers by the Washington Wizards. But when

67
00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:09.519
it mattered most the Clippers were able
to clamp down clamp City style, to

68
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:14.639
buckle down defensively, grab keyboards late
as Reggie Jackson did, went to the

69
00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:19.240
free throw line. Reggie Reggie extended
the lead to four. But it's just

70
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:23.959
good to see time and time again, even on a two game skid where

71
00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:28.560
they played some of the worst basketball
of the season offensively, shooting just thirty

72
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:32.639
six percent the last two games against
the Warriors against the New York Knicks.

73
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:38.519
But tonight the Clippers responded when they
had to late, when their backs were

74
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:41.800
against the wall. This is what
they do, This is their identity.

75
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:45.800
These are the resilient Clippers that fine
ways to win ball games don't matter who

76
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:50.399
is available. But Reggie Jackson made
himself available in a big way. Those

77
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:56.720
thirty one points, the timing of
them, the step back tough three pointers

78
00:05:56.759 --> 00:06:02.680
that he hit momentum shots when it
looked like Washington and Chris Dafsporzingis, who

79
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:05.800
looks very comfortable with his new team. He had himself a game once again,

80
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:11.079
just his second game as a Wizard, nineteen points in twenty five minutes.

81
00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:17.120
But the Clippers answered those runs late
at least, and they stayed close

82
00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:21.959
enough. And as the old saying
goes, if we're even, they're leaving.

83
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:26.720
It was like that, if the
Clippers get you in a close game

84
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:30.160
late, they're likely going to figure
out a way to beat you, and

85
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:35.000
they did so tonight for the fourteenth
straight time here in Los Angeles against the

86
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:42.120
Washington Wizards. The last time they
lost to the Wizards here in this building

87
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:47.519
was two thousand and eight. Some
of the Clippers players on that team,

88
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:51.800
Kat Mobley, Corey mcgetty, Al
Thornton and Chris came in, Sam Cassell,

89
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:58.199
Tim Thomas, rev And Knight,
Quentin Ross, Aaron Williams, Dan

90
00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:03.759
dick Al. It has been that
long since Washington has beat them in this

91
00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:06.959
building. And they were also close, and you know they wanted it bad.

92
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:12.439
After the Clippers came back down thirty
five second biggest comeback in the history

93
00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:16.360
of the sport just about a month
and a half ago in DC. But

94
00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:21.720
the Clippers and Reggie Jackson and Marcus
Morris, they just refused to lose late

95
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:26.399
in this one and again when they
had to play their best, when their

96
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.920
best was required, they did so
Clippers win one, fifteen to one on

97
00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:34.000
nine. Now they head out on
the road for their next three, starting

98
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:43.079
in Atlanta against Trey Young and the
Hawks on Friday. Let's go to and

99
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.399
Zoe and Burbank And so you're on
Clippers stock without a miles and starting things

100
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:51.160
off tonight? What's up? Hey, man? How's it doing? This

101
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:57.279
was a good win, But this
was a scrap you win? I thought

102
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:03.079
I were missing Robert Cummins in a
lot tonight last three excuse me, last

103
00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:07.879
couple of games. Now they have
missed him. Yeah, and I think

104
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:16.600
they should experience on Rodney Hood in
the rotation over coffee. Well a mirror

105
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:22.720
coffee has had himself a year.
He has proven to be one of the

106
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:26.800
more valuable guys on this team,
Enzoe because even when he has an off

107
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:31.879
shooting night, he goes two for
eight, one for five from downtown and

108
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:33.159
he got the start in this one
once again for the first time, and

109
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:37.000
I want to say the last eleven
games he still makes an impact. He's

110
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:39.519
one of those guys that does a
little bit of everything. You talk about.

111
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:46.519
A scrappy win, a mirror coffee
is a scrappy player. Yeah,

112
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:48.679
all right, Enzo, I appreciate
the phone call. Clippers win one fifteen

113
00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:54.639
to one on nine over the Wizards, taking you till eleven o'clock live from

114
00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:58.399
Crypto dot com arena here on Clippers
Talk. We'll take a quick time out

115
00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:01.799
eight six six nine eight seven two
five seventy eight six six nine eight seven

116
00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:09.679
two five seventy. Clippers fin is
strong with an eleven oh run as they

117
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:16.159
hold the Wizard's scoreless the final two
minutes thirty six seconds of this one.

118
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:22.600
After all defense it was optional times. Oh yeah, and by the way,

119
00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:28.159
Clibernation, you might think this is
poetic justice, but after the Clippers

120
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:33.879
attempted just three free throws the first
three quarters attempt at ten and the fourth.

121
00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:39.200
I was also a big factor.
Roche Jackson hidden some clutch ones down

122
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:43.720
the stretch. Clippers win by six. More Clippers stock next year on a

123
00:09:43.840 --> 00:10:00.159
M five sevent Yellow Sports women,
Tomahawks, you're listening to Los Angeles Clippers

124
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:03.600
basketball. He goes all the way
to the ram but sky scraping jam.

125
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:13.360
This is the official home of your
LA Clippers. Yeah, boys, Clippers

126
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:18.120
win one fifteen to one on nine
over the Washington Wizards here at Crypto dot

127
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:22.000
Com arena. It was his Clippers
Talk. I've had a moslin. The

128
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:26.320
Clippers stepped up and came through late, finished on an eleven oh run after

129
00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:31.960
they trailed by five with about two
and a half minutes left. Eight six

130
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:35.360
six nine eight seven two five seventy
eight six sixty nine eight seven two five

131
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:41.159
seventy or get to meet at follow
Adam a still to come. We'll hear

132
00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:46.000
from Reggie Jackson. But let's get
to tay Just and Walnut days here on

133
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:50.720
Clippers Talk. What's up, hey, Adam? Uh? Seems like well,

134
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:58.879
the Clipper comebacks are always ignited by
esecutive threes by Kennard. Those Luke

135
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.759
Canard three pointer at the end of
the third quarter, and even though once

136
00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:05.159
he hit in the first half,
Yeah, and he hit one more in

137
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:11.919
the fourth quarter. I do think
when Luke Kennard's hitting shots like that,

138
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:16.279
when Nick but Tom is hitting shots
like that, it's an indicator to sign

139
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:22.080
that the ball movement there tonight,
right. And I know there wasn't a

140
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:26.720
lot of great defense, but I
thought two sequences stood out to me.

141
00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:31.600
One was towards the end, I
think in the final minute, but toomb

142
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:39.799
he deflected the past which led to
Pope's airball three. And on that and

143
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:43.480
then on the same possession the next
possession he hit that three. I think

144
00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:50.759
that possession was huge. And second, defensively, when they were up to

145
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:54.960
with like twenty seconds, I was
thinking at the time, I hope they

146
00:11:56.039 --> 00:12:00.600
don't double Porzingius and he thought the
ball in the post, like, okay,

147
00:12:00.600 --> 00:12:03.279
don't don't double, don't double.
They don't want to give up a

148
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:07.840
three. And to their credit,
they they didn't double and made him take

149
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.559
a I don't know if it was
coffee, but he took a tough turnaround.

150
00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:15.080
And I just thought, you know, they stayed disciplined and that was

151
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:18.399
actually really be a big moment in
the game by not double teaming. I

152
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:24.080
thought it's a good point to age
because I want to say, of the

153
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:28.600
first I know, they hit six
threes in the fourth quarter alone the Washington

154
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:33.399
Wizards after only hitting four three pointers
in the first three quarters, but I

155
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:37.080
want to say four of those six
were wide open three pointers that they hit

156
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:41.519
in that fourth quarter. It was
just poor defense by the Clippers, but

157
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:48.279
they clamped down late. They found
a way, and Nick Batum, you

158
00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:50.200
knew, if you're gonna win a
game like this close, he's gonna have

159
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:54.840
his fingerprints all over it. And
it wasn't just the three pointer, as

160
00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:58.240
you mentioned that he hit late,
the dagger shot, but the defense he

161
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:03.360
played late to and the rebounding and
the Clippers late became much better when that

162
00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:07.600
ball went out of bounds and it
didn't hit the ram and they reviewed it

163
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:11.559
and they confirmed it didn't. But
I took note of the fact that the

164
00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:16.399
Clippers actually boxed out really well on
that play because they hadn't been throughout most

165
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:22.080
of the night. Let's go to
Morris in Long Beach. Morris, what's

166
00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:24.320
up? You're on Clippers stock?
He a, am I tripput or?

167
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:28.519
Did I see the lone Ranger and
Tonto sitting on the bench? And if

168
00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:31.600
that, uh, if that's true, what do they backed with the team

169
00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:35.240
doing the warm ups? You know, are they back doing the warmp or

170
00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:37.360
the pregame warm ups. You know, before they get out of the clip.

171
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:41.440
Are you talking about Kawhi Leonard and
Paul George Tonto. That's right,

172
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:45.879
that's what I'm talking about. Am
I tripputed to him. Am I seeing

173
00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:48.399
them on the bench. They're on
the bench, but they've been on the

174
00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:52.559
bench everywhere the Clippers have gone lately. Kawhi Leonards has been traveling with this

175
00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:54.840
team. He was with him in
Houston, he was with him in San

176
00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:58.440
Francisco. There you go. Now
they're doing the pregame warm up. I

177
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:03.279
didn't see him tonight, obviously.
That footage came out of Kawhi Leonard doing

178
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:07.559
an individual workout yesterday in Golden State
in front of the media for the first

179
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:11.919
time for over an hour. It
sounded like, well, we're looking good

180
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:15.440
at and we get him back the
last eight games. They're gonna be on

181
00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:18.879
a minute restriction for five Okay.
I don't see that. The Clippers thrown

182
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:22.120
this year away. These guys ain't
got to come back for eighty two plus

183
00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:24.039
sixteen. They just got to come
back for the second half of the series

184
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:26.799
season. I see him coming back, man, I'm feeling it in my

185
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:30.360
bones at him. They're coming back. I'll talk to you next time,

186
00:14:30.759 --> 00:14:33.759
all right, Morris, I hope
you're right. As much as we have

187
00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:35.879
harped on the defense tonight, or
the lack there of, until the final

188
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:41.759
couple of minutes for the Clippers,
I thought Isaiah Hartenstein was physical. He

189
00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:46.039
had three blocks. They credited him
for three. I want to say he

190
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:50.799
had five, but he definitely had
three in the fourth quarter, and one

191
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:54.000
was emphatic, a volleyball spike,
as Noah Egle put it, and it

192
00:14:54.080 --> 00:15:00.879
led to a runout for a crazy
reverse layup from Reggie Jackson. Zah Hardenstein

193
00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:05.039
played tough defense. I thought Terrence
Man as well was battling getting on the

194
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:07.879
boards, and I talked about how
he ignited that run at the end of

195
00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:11.360
the third quarter. But he made
plays on the fourth quarter as well.

196
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:16.519
Finished with nine rebounds, just nine
points, but he was a plus eighteen

197
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.360
in a game they win by six, led them in the plus minus category.

198
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.759
We'll take a quick time out.
We'll come back. You'll hear from

199
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:28.759
Reggie Jackson. We'll get to more
of your phone calls. Eight sixty six

200
00:15:28.879 --> 00:15:33.879
nine eight seven two five seventy eight
sixty six nine eight seven two five seventy

201
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:43.360
Clippers bounce back after two of their
toughest performances shooting wise from the field.

202
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:48.960
Tonight they hit fifty percent of their
shots from the field and from three when

203
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:54.919
sixteen to thirty two from the outside. It helps when Reggie Jackson goes five

204
00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:58.960
and nine and Luke Nard goes four
of seven. But Marcus Moore's again eighteen

205
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:02.960
points in the first half was carrying
them. Just needed nine more. Hit

206
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:07.480
a tough turnaround near the free throw
line in the fourth quarter, one of

207
00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:11.519
those ISO shots, but ten of
fifteen for him after he had been struggling

208
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:15.480
too. He and Reggie Jackson we
talked about it with Noah Eagle in the

209
00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:19.360
pre game. As those guys go, so do the Clippers right now.

210
00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:26.759
They're there, two best tough shot
makers they have on the team currently without

211
00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:30.840
their superstars, and they found a
way to get it done tonight. More

212
00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:36.399
Clippers stock. Next you're running up
five to seventy l A sports he gotta

213
00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:41.519
get for me every time of a
lot of snot things couldn't be an ever.

214
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:45.559
Read the line one. This is
La Clippers basketball quarter three for the

215
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:55.120
time he got it. This is
the official home of your LA Clippers in

216
00:16:55.200 --> 00:17:00.639
the clubs representative Clippers went one fifteen
and one on nine over the Washington Wizards.

217
00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:04.519
Here from Crypto dot Com arena and
listening to the Clippers talk, I've

218
00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:10.559
had a Moslem eight six six nine
eight seven two five seventy eight six six

219
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:14.960
nine eight seven two five seventy someone
else who had a bounce back performance and

220
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:21.480
also had an emphatic block ofvizsa zubots
after going oh six against Golden State yesterday,

221
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:26.160
finishes with ten and nine in that
block as I mentioned, and had

222
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:32.039
six of those points in the first
quarter. He Reggie Jackson and Marcus Morris

223
00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:36.240
came out like they knew they had
to redeem themselves over the last couple of

224
00:17:36.319 --> 00:17:41.039
games, and they did and then
some but the Clippers going on an eleven

225
00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:47.279
oh run to finish this one off. Another impressive performance down the stretch in

226
00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:49.720
crunch time from the Los Angeles Clippers, who are doing it without their two

227
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:53.880
superstars again. Eight six six ninety
eight seven two five seventy. Let's go

228
00:17:53.960 --> 00:18:02.519
to Sean in Inglewood. Sean,
what's up? Yeah? We lost,

229
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:04.559
Sean Sean call back. I just
gave out the damn number eight six,

230
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:07.799
six, nine, eight, seven
two five seventy. You know what,

231
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:11.799
though, I want to hear from
Reggie Jackson post game as he went for

232
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:17.359
nine thousand points in his career tonight
on PP and J nine where he was

233
00:18:17.440 --> 00:18:22.119
hooking up Clippers fans with a snack, and here he was post games speaking.

234
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:26.839
I want to say it was Jimmie
Majio on Valley Sports with Reggie Jackson.

235
00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:30.640
Guys, thank you so much so
Reggie, I mean, you earned

236
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:33.640
this dance right now. You guys
close out the third quarter on a nice

237
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:37.440
run. You close out the game
also on an eleven old run. But

238
00:18:37.519 --> 00:18:40.160
you knew that the Wizards were gonna
come in here and try and get back

239
00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:41.720
into you guys for the way that
you beat them on their home court.

240
00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:45.640
How did you guys close this out
so strong? Ah, That's what we

241
00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.319
talked about. We knew after the
way end at that second unit, the

242
00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:52.839
way they came back, they competed
in Washington, got a historical win.

243
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:55.559
We knew that they're gonna come out
and fight. That's a good team over

244
00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:56.799
there. They came and brought us
at the end. But we stayed resilient.

245
00:18:56.880 --> 00:19:00.559
We just kept all cool, you
know. We played through frustrations.

246
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:03.000
I'm missing a few shots, but
we just kept playing and sticking together and

247
00:19:03.559 --> 00:19:07.079
finding a way to get some stops
and then finally show up with defensive rebounds.

248
00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:10.839
Rig You were doing your thing out
there tonight as well, thirty one

249
00:19:10.920 --> 00:19:14.720
points seven assists. You were five
of nine from three point range in this

250
00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:18.079
game. You hit nine thousand career
points in your in your career, but

251
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:22.279
I think you saved the best part
for the very end. Getting to the

252
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:26.440
free throw line for the peanut butter
and jelly snacks. Was that by design?

253
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:29.960
I wish it was. I wish
I'd got there a few more times.

254
00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:32.079
I was talking to my teammates earlier
about how I need to get to

255
00:19:32.119 --> 00:19:34.119
the line, so I gotta be
better attacking. How I want to feed

256
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:37.240
the fans want to I want to
get the things back to all the love

257
00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:42.039
that they give myself and my teammates. I'm appreciate this organization. Like I

258
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:45.559
said, I'm appreciate all the fans, and I'll make sure you gets on

259
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:48.680
the line a few more times next
year. This is also now fourteen straight

260
00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:52.759
wins against the Wizards for the Clippers
at home, which is now the longest

261
00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:57.839
streak against any opponent in Clippers franchise
history. We know this is an Eastern

262
00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:03.519
Conference opponent, but this time of
year, how important is each in every

263
00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:07.359
single win? My fault? What's
the street? But fourteenth straight at home

264
00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:10.000
against the Wizards. Oh, that's
great, that's great. My fault.

265
00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:12.359
I was thinking about it going over
there, messing with Paul, giving Mama

266
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:17.519
Georgia hug giving Papa George some deaths. So I'm my mind's over here.

267
00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:19.000
But it's good. It's good taking
care of home court. Like I said,

268
00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:22.440
it's a great team. It's been
a battle throughout the years. What's

269
00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:26.160
that fourteen? Fourteen years and running
win in here. So it's something we're

270
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:29.599
gonna try to keep going next year. But we just want to protect this

271
00:20:29.680 --> 00:20:32.720
home court and do it for our
fans. Let's say hi to the fam.

272
00:20:32.920 --> 00:20:36.079
Definitely will all right, guys,
back to you. As we've seen

273
00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:40.759
recently with these Clippers runs, as
they go on an eleven zero run to

274
00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:45.880
finish off the Wizards in a close
contest, it was Clipper Nations stepping up

275
00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:49.759
and helping fuel that here in downtown
Los Angeles. There's no doubt about it.

276
00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:56.440
Reggie Jackson he's become an all time
band favorite in just his third year

277
00:20:56.519 --> 00:20:59.519
with the team, really just two
and a half years so far as a

278
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:03.680
Clipper, but he's made a huge
impact, just like he did tonight with

279
00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:07.160
those thirty one points, eleven of
them in the fourth quarter. Clippers come

280
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:12.519
back down five with two and a
half left as they clamp down and don't

281
00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:18.119
give up a point in the final
two minutes and twenty six seconds. Coming

282
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:21.680
up next, we'll hear from coach
Lou here on Clippers Stock eight six six

283
00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:23.759
nine eight seven two five seventy as
well, if you'd like to get on

284
00:21:23.920 --> 00:21:27.920
eight six sixty nine eight seven two
five seventy is the phone number, and

285
00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:33.799
we'll talk about this upcoming three game
road trips starting in Atlanta on Friday.

286
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:37.440
I'm atam Oslind and you're listening to
the Clippers stalk here on Amp five seventy

287
00:21:37.599 --> 00:21:41.119
l A Sports. I thought it
serves a round raids a home down in

288
00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:47.240
the West Y Friday saved the Oba
moves at the Timerhawk Slam. You're listening

289
00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:51.319
to Los Angeles Clippers basketball. He
goes all the way to the Rambus sky

290
00:21:51.559 --> 00:22:07.680
scraping Jam. This is the official
home of your La Clippers. Clippers win

291
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:11.359
one fifteen to one on nine here
from Crypto dot com arena over the Washington

292
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:15.039
Wizards. Welcome back into Clippers stock. I'm out of Auslin. Eight six

293
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:22.000
six nine eight seven two five seventy
eight sixty six nine eight seven two five

294
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:26.079
seventy is the phone number one of
the other keys. Late in that fourth

295
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:32.400
quarter, the Clippers forced five turnovers
on the Wizards in the final twelve minutes,

296
00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:37.079
where they only had an eight entering
the quarter, speaks to the level

297
00:22:37.119 --> 00:22:41.559
of defense the Clippers eventually played in
the last bit of the game. In

298
00:22:41.599 --> 00:22:44.839
fact, there was a big turnover
by Christap sport zingis. Some of that

299
00:22:45.039 --> 00:22:51.200
is just familiarity, second game as
a Washington Wizard. But Clippers just good

300
00:22:51.319 --> 00:22:56.880
enough when they had to be late
to get another clutch time victory and another

301
00:22:56.960 --> 00:23:00.160
victory over the Washington Wizards, fourteenth
straight here in this building. Going back

302
00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:04.759
to two thousand and eight. All
right, we heard from Reggie Jackson earlier.

303
00:23:04.880 --> 00:23:10.240
He finished with thirty one, Marcus
Morris had twenty seven. Let's hear

304
00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:12.599
from your head coach Toron Loup post
game speaking with the media. Now,

305
00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:18.279
Washington played great, you know,
tonight just you know, in transition.

306
00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:19.799
You know, we couldn't keep up
with their speed in that first half and

307
00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:25.559
they made some shots and like I
said, with with Porzingis at the five,

308
00:23:25.759 --> 00:23:26.599
just you know, it's a it's
a tough matchup, you know,

309
00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:30.079
for us, for any big that
you know, you got a seven,

310
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:32.839
two guys who could shoot threes from
you know, four or five feet behind

311
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:36.079
the line. So it's a tough
matchups. It puts you in a scramble.

312
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:37.599
But you know, we got down
ten, you know, I think

313
00:23:37.680 --> 00:23:41.839
late in that third quarter, but
just our defensive stops. Luke came in

314
00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:44.799
and made it, you know,
some some huge threes and then like I

315
00:23:44.839 --> 00:23:47.359
said, the huge street that Niko
made was was big as well. So

316
00:23:47.799 --> 00:23:52.079
it's a total team effort. Man. We needed this win because of the

317
00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:53.720
last you know, two games,
but it was a it was a good

318
00:23:53.759 --> 00:24:02.480
win for us, right what what
kind of advantages is to have su back

319
00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:06.599
and Isaiah trading minutes at center.
It's been good for us all year long,

320
00:24:06.799 --> 00:24:10.480
and those two together, I teach
him a lot of time, I

321
00:24:10.480 --> 00:24:12.200
give him a lot I give him
hard time, but they've been good for

322
00:24:12.359 --> 00:24:15.440
us all year. You know,
they've been great for us actually, and

323
00:24:15.559 --> 00:24:21.279
so just like tonight, I thought
isaiah verticality at the rim was was huge,

324
00:24:21.480 --> 00:24:23.559
you know when team when they got
downhill and he was big at the

325
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:26.160
rim. Zu missed a couple you
know lay after he which he can get

326
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:29.799
back around the rim. But I
thought it was great, you know,

327
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:33.279
and so to half the guard you
know for zingis you know, a stretch

328
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:36.359
five who can pick and pop and
roll and mixes it up. They did

329
00:24:36.440 --> 00:24:37.640
a good job. And like I
said, Isaiah, it was part of

330
00:24:37.680 --> 00:24:41.680
that huge coming back that we had
and we needed his gage on the floor

331
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:48.640
so tired. What happened to getting
Reggie some rest tonight? And how did

332
00:24:48.680 --> 00:24:53.640
you think he performed after he give
him some rest tonight and tomorrow wet him

333
00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:57.359
some rest tomorrow. Man. Yeah, he just you know, I try

334
00:24:57.400 --> 00:25:00.240
to get him out of a couple
of times. He said he felt good,

335
00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:02.559
you know, he said he felt
good. And I didn't really see

336
00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:04.559
him get too tired, you know. And so but he was playing a

337
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:07.480
great game. You know, I
thought he really controlled the game, you

338
00:25:07.559 --> 00:25:11.160
know, the whole night, you
know, scoring thirty one points, but

339
00:25:11.319 --> 00:25:14.160
really you know, taking over and
dominating down the stretch like he's always done

340
00:25:14.160 --> 00:25:15.960
for us down the stretch. And
then Marcus is huge for us as well,

341
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:23.799
especially in that first half. Get
some rest tomorrow tights. When asked

342
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:26.640
about Marcus and just like obviously,
yeah, I mean he got us off

343
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:30.480
to a great start. You know, I think you're getting some touches early,

344
00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:33.240
be it to establish his post presence
early was huge for him, and

345
00:25:33.279 --> 00:25:37.000
then it kind of opened up his
three point shot. But you know,

346
00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:40.039
having eighteen in that first half,
you know, was really was really good

347
00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:41.799
for us, and he had more
pop tonight. You know, he got

348
00:25:41.880 --> 00:25:47.319
into a better rhythm offensively, and
so you know when I think, like

349
00:25:47.319 --> 00:25:49.519
I said, when Reggie and Marcus
play well, we usually can win some

350
00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:52.599
games. But when they don't play
well, it's tough for us to win.

351
00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:56.119
So they came out and definitely said
the tone for us tonight and were

352
00:25:56.119 --> 00:25:59.640
happy with Luke Letting. He passed
up some shots, but yeah, he

353
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:02.440
well, Luke, he did a
good job, especially if we got down

354
00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:04.640
ten, you know, making two
huge three to cut that lead, and

355
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:08.720
just his movement, the way he
played and I'm staying about turning down some

356
00:26:08.839 --> 00:26:11.279
shots, but he was he was
He was good for us. Tonight.

357
00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:18.720
I don't know what it is,
but I don't like to keep getting behind

358
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:23.720
us, so he's been doing when
we're up. We need that. Something

359
00:26:23.799 --> 00:26:26.960
I noticed with Luke Kennard tonight,
and I love that relationship he and coach

360
00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:32.799
lou have or Luke is open to
the criticism whenever he turns down shots because

361
00:26:32.839 --> 00:26:36.599
he's too good of a shooter.
No one's shooting better from the outside.

362
00:26:36.680 --> 00:26:41.119
This season, he is making the
case that he is the best shooter in

363
00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:45.279
the game, spot up, role
player type shooter. Obviously Steph Curry is

364
00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:51.000
the greatest shooter of all time,
but in the ilk of the Joe Harris

365
00:26:51.160 --> 00:26:55.400
is of the league, the buddy
heels Heelds, it's Luke Kennard. He's

366
00:26:55.400 --> 00:27:00.720
shooting forty five percent from three,
and they don't win this game without those

367
00:27:00.759 --> 00:27:03.839
two three pointers to turn things around
at the end of the third quarter heading

368
00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:07.799
into the fourth. But one of
the things I liked from him is it

369
00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:11.559
wasn't just the three point shot.
He hit three two pointers and was just

370
00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:15.960
more decisive. Was making quick decisions
out there, and the Clippers were as

371
00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:21.319
a team. They were playing with
more purpose, they knew where they were

372
00:27:21.359 --> 00:27:25.720
going with the basketball. Sure,
they had some turnovers they'd like back,

373
00:27:25.960 --> 00:27:30.839
but overall, the ball movement was
a beautiful thing to night for the Los

374
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:33.519
Angeles Clippers, and that led to
this victory. That was the biggest difference,

375
00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:37.960
creating more open looks than they had
the last couple of nights, including

376
00:27:38.039 --> 00:27:42.000
just yesterday against the Golden State Warriors. But when Luke Kennard is going like

377
00:27:42.160 --> 00:27:45.400
this with nineteen points off the bench, four of seven from the outside,

378
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:49.680
it makes them that much tougher because
if you leave him open, as I

379
00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:55.079
said earlier, it's just a layup. It's too easy. And then when

380
00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:57.119
he has that gravity, when he
gets that attention, when teams load up

381
00:27:57.119 --> 00:28:02.200
against him, and the ball movement
there like it was tonight, the Clippers

382
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:07.799
find whoever else is open, and
they did so, and no play better

383
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:14.200
than that shot from Nicholas batoum off
the extra pass from Terrence Man with thirty

384
00:28:14.279 --> 00:28:18.039
seconds left, who had a good
look himself. Passing up good looks for

385
00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:22.599
great looks. We saw plenty of
that tonight from the Clippers, leading to

386
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:27.519
them shooting sixteen of thirty two from
the outside, and their last three victories,

387
00:28:27.519 --> 00:28:33.759
I would say they haven't been perfect
against the Lakers, against Houston tonight

388
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:40.200
against the Wizards. But they've been
good enough when it matters most and they're

389
00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:44.160
gonna need that that part of their
DNA as they go out on the road

390
00:28:44.240 --> 00:28:48.839
now against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. Tip time for that once at four

391
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:52.079
thirty. We got Clippers countdown for
you. Starting at three thirty. They're

392
00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:56.440
taking on Tree Young and an Atlanta
Hawks team has been playing better since the

393
00:28:56.480 --> 00:29:00.319
Clippers last saw them, but a
three game road trip in Atlanta, in

394
00:29:00.400 --> 00:29:07.400
Detroit on Sunday, and then in
Cleveland the upstart Cleveland Cavaliers Monday. That

395
00:29:07.480 --> 00:29:11.880
will be their final back to back
that Sunday Monday in Detroit in Cleveland of

396
00:29:11.960 --> 00:29:15.640
the season, as the Clippers have
just fourteen games left after they get the
