WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:01.720 The LA Clippers. 2 00:00:02.240 --> 00:00:06.000 The game is ended, gather round boys, time to recap, but. 3 00:00:06.040 --> 00:00:08.720 The post game coverage is just getting started. 4 00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:10.160 The successes the failure. 5 00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:14.439 Let's discuss this is Clippers locker Road breaking down today's 6 00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:17.399 action with the pre and post game voice of the Clippers. 7 00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:19.440 Here's at a Moss lag. 8 00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:22.800 Now, that's how you handle your first back to back 9 00:00:22.839 --> 00:00:25.359 of the season. The Clippers sweep it. They went in 10 00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:28.359 Denvery yesterday and they just won one twelve to one 11 00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:32.280 oh four up north against the Golden State Warriors. Welcome 12 00:00:32.280 --> 00:00:35.640 into your Clippers postgame show. I'm at a Moslin coming up. 13 00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:38.719 We got second half highlights in your post game box score. 14 00:00:38.759 --> 00:00:44.159 But first we're heading back out to Carlojmenez from Chase Center, 15 00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:50.280 where the Clippers just well, they're leaving two games, two wins, 16 00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:55.039 one loss so far. Carlo Clipper Nation cannot contain themselves 17 00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:57.600 right now. They are proud of this ball club, as 18 00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:01.200 they should be. With the Clippers with another gritty, gutty 19 00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:04.200 effort and some fine defensive plays down the stretch leading 20 00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:04.719 to offense. 21 00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:08.079 It was just such an impressive win because of the 22 00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:10.560 way this team got the win. Adam to do it 23 00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:12.840 with the defensive side of the basketball. You get twenty 24 00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:16.159 one points off the twenty one turnovers for Golden State 25 00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:18.959 dominate once again, points in the paints plus twenty for 26 00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:21.159 the Clippers in this one, and then you get twenty 27 00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:23.840 one second chance points. The second chance points, the points 28 00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:26.079 off turnovers. Those are hustle stats. Those are stats to 29 00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:28.840 show how hard you're putting an effort. And after playing 30 00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:31.079 at a mile high yesterday, you'd think this team will 31 00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:33.760 be winded early in the season, but they were ready 32 00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:37.040 down the stretch. How about the effort by Chris Dunn 33 00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:39.959 late Adam Norman pal of block and then a long 34 00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:42.599 too to put the Clippers up by five after it 35 00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:43.599 was a one point game. 36 00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.319 Just such a gritty win once again. 37 00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:48.239 And I think one thing we can be sure of 38 00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:51.040 about this team through three games is they. 39 00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:53.319 Fight all forty eight. 40 00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:55.760 It was impressive stuff from the Clippers, who were a 41 00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:59.879 couple plays away from being three to oher With wins over, 42 00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:02.879 the Clippers are over the Warriors and the Nuggets right 43 00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.040 now on the board, and should be the Phoenix Suns. 44 00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:07.799 The Clippers are two to one on this young season, 45 00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:11.240 thanks to Big Zoo becoming the first Clipper with consecutive 46 00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:14.000 games of at least twenty points and fifteen boards since 47 00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:18.000 DeAndre Jordan did it back in twenty fifteen. Of Viza 48 00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:21.960 Zubots is thriving being featured now as a focal point 49 00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:26.639 on offense. He finished with twenty three seventeen six assists 50 00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:30.039 out there as well two steals and a block. This 51 00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:32.800 is what many of us, the Zoo truthers, knew he 52 00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:35.759 was capable of. He's doing it right now, Carlo. 53 00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:37.120 He really was. 54 00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:40.840 It really was a fantastic performance from Zubots. Another ont 55 00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:43.840 of bank to back games. He plays thirty eight plus minutes, 56 00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:47.159 didn't look tired at all, twenty three and seventeen. He's 57 00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:50.280 gonna get some well well deserved rest for this Clipper 58 00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:53.919 team that has just been playing through him. I mean, 59 00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:56.840 in all honesty, they're playing this offense is playing through 60 00:02:56.840 --> 00:02:59.199 of Vitza Zubots a lot of times, especially with James 61 00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:01.800 Harden off the floor. His ability to clean things up, 62 00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:04.840 to get downhill, to attack in the paint and take 63 00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:07.159 advantage of those smaller matchups. 64 00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:09.400 It's been fun to watch for me and Vita. 65 00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:12.159 Zoobots has to be the early season favorite for most 66 00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:14.680 improved player at him with the way he has shined 67 00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:16.840 after last year. Now he was actually last year for 68 00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:19.560 the Clippers eleven points, nine rebounds. He was averaging twenty 69 00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:23.080 and fifteen through three games for this Clipper team, and 70 00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:25.520 coming up you got a Portland squad that has some 71 00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:28.199 good pig men. But you feel like after DeAndre ayting, 72 00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:30.479 Avitazus is an opportunity to eat once again. 73 00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:33.479 I agree with you. He should be the front runner 74 00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:35.599 for that award right now. It's way too early in 75 00:03:35.639 --> 00:03:37.840 the season, of course, but it's three games in and 76 00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:40.960 I Vitza Zubots looks great, But I almost feel like 77 00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:44.199 this is just about a guy taking advantage of an opportunity, 78 00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:46.960 and this has been in him for some time, and 79 00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:50.840 now he's really being a part of this Clippers offense, 80 00:03:50.919 --> 00:03:54.240 and guys are looking for him early and often and late. 81 00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:56.919 And I still can't believe the move he made for 82 00:03:56.960 --> 00:03:59.199 the throwdown to put him up by five late in 83 00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:02.280 this ballgame, or if Easa Zubos was showing off the 84 00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:04.960 handle there. Maybe he's learning something else from James Harden. 85 00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:08.639 I mean, put the moves on Big Zoo, get downhill, 86 00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:12.360 a little sidestep and then a two innded Hammer of eacha, 87 00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:15.080 Zubots looks like the most comfortable at him. I think 88 00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:17.759 he's looked all season long, and I would agree with 89 00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:20.560 you like the most improved player. Probably wouldn't because he's 90 00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:23.519 improved the skill set, but the opportunities are just greater 91 00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:26.240 right now for him, and he's doing what we believed 92 00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:28.000 he could have done, what you believe you started the 93 00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.439 march that he could do with more time. Once again, 94 00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:35.040 he plays all but six minutes, all but four minutes, 95 00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:36.000 ten minutes. 96 00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:36.399 There we go. 97 00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:36.680 Math. 98 00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:39.040 Math is hard. Second out of back to back. Please 99 00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:39.639 don't come from me. 100 00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:42.800 All but ten minutes of this game, and every second 101 00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:45.519 he was on the floor was a positive for the 102 00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:48.519 Clippers in a big, big way. It is so fun 103 00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:50.759 to root for this team because the way they play 104 00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:53.639 basketball and because of Iata Zubats is out there doing 105 00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:54.040 his thing. 106 00:04:54.160 --> 00:04:56.639 Carlo, I think what I'm most proud of tonight is 107 00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:58.720 not that just the fact the Clippers are coming off 108 00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:03.560 a big emotional victory Denver yesterday, but absorbing multiple runs 109 00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:07.399 by the Golden State Warriors in the second quarter, they 110 00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:09.879 made a big run end of the third quarter before 111 00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:12.199 it was an answer by Norman Powell. It was a one 112 00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:15.439 point game with about three minutes left. After the Clippers 113 00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:17.800 looked like they were falling apart. With three forty seven left, 114 00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.160 Andrew Wiggins HiT's a three pointer. It's one zero, one 115 00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:23.560 to one hundred. And as you said, they never relinquished 116 00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.519 the lead, and they showed poise under noise on the 117 00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:27.560 road on this trip. 118 00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:28.040 Yeah. 119 00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:31.199 Really once again putting the band aid on after getting 120 00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:33.439 exposed a little bit against Phoenix, where you give up 121 00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:35.560 the lead, this time you get pushed to the brink. 122 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:38.759 Backs on the ropes didn't matter. This team fopped back. 123 00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:40.759 They got a right hook in and they were to 124 00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:43.120 create some space and that's all they needed outam. 125 00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:44.759 They took the lead in the second and they never 126 00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:46.720 gave it up. They never gave it up. 127 00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:49.680 The last Warrior lead was thirty one point thirty in 128 00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:54.720 the first quarter and the Clippers held on the entire contest. 129 00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:59.360 So fun to see that team not relinquish a second 130 00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:00.839 all game long. 131 00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:03.360 They were fighting to the end and they came away 132 00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:04.000 with a victory. 133 00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:05.560 I thought there was a lot of bright spots off 134 00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:07.800 the bench. Nico Batoum gets on the board with a three, 135 00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:10.560 a mere Coffee gave you eight points and twenty minutes 136 00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:14.519 of course, hardened seven rebounds, eleven assists, twenty three points. 137 00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:17.439 He's once again near averaging a triple double to start 138 00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:17.920 the season. 139 00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:19.240 The Clippers got it done. 140 00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:21.560 They got it done on the road in a hostile 141 00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:23.680 environment on the second hand of it, back to back, 142 00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:25.839 and I don't know what more you can say than 143 00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:28.240 this team is battle tested, and this team is passing 144 00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:29.920 some of their biggest tests early in the year. 145 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:33.040 Really like what we're seeing with that backup unit next 146 00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:36.279 to Big Zoo to start fourth quarters. Coach lou Is 147 00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:40.040 tapped into something there. That crew has done damage the 148 00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:44.160 last couple of ballgames against stiff competition. They've been really 149 00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:46.480 good out there. I believe it was Chris Dunn, a 150 00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:51.199 Mere Coffee, Nico Batoum a Vista zu Bots. Those guys 151 00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:54.800 were absolutely like and you could see it, they could 152 00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:57.639 feel it. They were working together as a tandem. That 153 00:06:57.759 --> 00:06:59.879 chemistry is being built up by a bunch of bea 154 00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:02.680 and then A beats the Zoo Bots. Chris Dunn, by 155 00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:04.600 the way, just phenomenal in this ballgame. 156 00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:08.199 Chris Dunn was the spark off the bench. Adam the 157 00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:12.040 Clippers were looking for and they needed all game long. 158 00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:15.759 This was a Clipper team that came in with eyes 159 00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:17.360 on the prize. I mean, you get one of two, 160 00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:19.240 you already think you're playing with house money. But they 161 00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:21.519 didn't look that way. It looked like they lost yesterday 162 00:07:21.560 --> 00:07:23.360 with the way they came and fought, and it was 163 00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:26.439 becomes Chris Dunn played with that chip on his shoulder 164 00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:29.600 that he does every single night for this Clipper team. 165 00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:32.160 Looking at the final bounds score here done coming away 166 00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:37.319 with four steals in this ballgame for the eleven for 167 00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:39.680 the Clippers. Derek Jones Junior gets too. And you heard 168 00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:41.879 it from Derek postgame. It's a team effort on the 169 00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:44.199 defensive end. It is a team effort and those two 170 00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:45.480 guys are a big part of it. 171 00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.680 I missed out giving KPJ some love there. He was 172 00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:52.199 in that five man unit that started the fourth quarter. 173 00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:54.399 And he also, I believe, had his best game so 174 00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:57.079 far as a Clipper, still just two of seven, but 175 00:07:57.199 --> 00:07:59.720 got that right elbow jumper to go, got a three 176 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.199 point to go in this one as he banked it in, 177 00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:04.839 I believe, in his seventeen minutes, though he had a 178 00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:07.519 couple of steals. He had three assists. He was playing 179 00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:10.680 within himself a little bit more. And this Clippers crew 180 00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:13.879 right now is two to one without Kawhi Leonard. They 181 00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:17.720 return home to into It Dome on Wednesday, conquering heroes 182 00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:21.000 after sweeping the back to back in Denver. In Golden State, 183 00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:23.240 the Clippers win this one one twelve to one oh 184 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:26.480 four over the Warriors. Carlo Jimenez, we will see you 185 00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:29.240 back at the Dome. The Dome is home for a 186 00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:33.279 Wednesday contest, Clippers hosting the Portland trail Blazers. Tip time 187 00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:36.360 at seven thirty pregame at six thirty. Great call is 188 00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:38.200 always safe travels, my friend. 189 00:08:38.039 --> 00:08:40.080 Safe travels at them. We got five in a row together. 190 00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:42.320 Get ready home stand coming out here do. 191 00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:47.279 It we go?

They pull through 194 00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:58.879 late once again. Clipper Nations, I know you're on cloud nine. 195 00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:01.360 This team might not be an airplane to fly back. 196 00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:04.840 They got airplane mode and Derek Jones Jr. Instead marek 197 00:09:04.840 --> 00:09:06.840 Clippers post game next right here on the Los Angeles 198 00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:07.919 Clippers Audio Network. 199 00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:15.080 The Clippers.

They improved a three to 203 00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:32.840 one on this young season. How about Aviza Zoobots can't 204 00:09:32.840 --> 00:09:36.480 say enough about the big man. Third straight twenty point game, 205 00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:40.919 another game where he's got fifteen plus rebounds, had seventeen 206 00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.480 in this one, six offensive rebounds. You know, I've been 207 00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:46.879 singing his praises for years. You know, I've been pulling 208 00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:49.159 my hair out talking about how they should be playing 209 00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:53.559 through a Viza Zoo bots more. It's finally happening. The 210 00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:57.320 work he has put in has met the opportunity. Big 211 00:09:57.399 --> 00:10:01.519 Zoo is here, guys. You know me, I'm quite a 212 00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.799 big fan of him. Defeats the Zoobos once again, big 213 00:10:05.879 --> 00:10:07.879 down the stretch in this ball game. Let's get through 214 00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:10.799 some of the second half highlights here as the Clippers, 215 00:10:10.919 --> 00:10:15.039 after surviving a run by the Golden State Warriors to 216 00:10:15.320 --> 00:10:18.360 end that second quarter, they still led fifty nine to 217 00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:20.759 fifty four, but they led by as many as eleven 218 00:10:21.159 --> 00:10:24.759 in the first half. In the third, another Golden State 219 00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:28.000 Warriors run after the Clippers got up by nine, but 220 00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:30.919 it was Norman Palell who pushed back. At the end 221 00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:32.799 of the third Harden left. 222 00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:35.519 Wing, dribbling on the right hand, directing traffic of the left, 223 00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:36.519 staring at Norman Pale. 224 00:10:36.600 --> 00:10:38.000 Bouncing to Norman Pale left the. 225 00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:41.320 Layup up and in Norman pal for two fine zoo 226 00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:44.200 with a free throw line, Norm left angle triple Oh yeah. 227 00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:48.879 Norman Pale all cords to Norman Palell attacks stop, steps 228 00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:51.039 back to the free throw line. Righty floater moving to 229 00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:54.120 his left trickles in Norman pal the bucket he's in 230 00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:56.000 double figures, Clippers out and running. 231 00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:58.080 Norm on the right handed handle, runs. 232 00:10:57.879 --> 00:11:01.480 Into Putjepsti quotes and finishes. Who's back door for Norman 233 00:11:01.559 --> 00:11:04.399 pal Already flutter make it six straight for Norman back 234 00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:07.080 door for Norman pal Already flutter make it six straight 235 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:09.480 for Norman Harden In bounced to Norman it's gonna be 236 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:11.039 his show. With four right went. 237 00:11:10.960 --> 00:11:15.240 With two, A three is up Norman pal from outside. 238 00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:18.720 There was Norman Powell so nice. We had to play 239 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.480 it twice for you. Norman Pall had a three three 240 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:27.120 straight floaters and the Clippers after giving up some of 241 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:30.200 the lead, they would lead heading into the fourth eighty 242 00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:35.120 six to seventy nine as storman. Norman Powell had a 243 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:38.320 nine to zero run to end that third quarter, and 244 00:11:38.360 --> 00:11:41.200 then once again things got dicey. The Clippers were giving 245 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:44.039 away the basketball. Derek Jones Junior was bringing it up 246 00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:47.039 instead of James Harden, trying to play him more off ball. 247 00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:50.200 But the Clippers made the big plays even when it 248 00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:52.480 was a one point game with just under four minutes 249 00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:53.639 left in that fourth quarter. 250 00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:56.440 Done straight away with three it's dancing with two right 251 00:11:56.519 --> 00:11:58.600 handed handle, floats it up and finishes. 252 00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:01.080 Chris Dunn do it yourself. 253 00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:06.000 Here's Zobots underneath finds Norman left corner, three string music, 254 00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:10.000 Norman Pale from the coffin corner and the Clippers from 255 00:12:10.039 --> 00:12:12.279 the cliffs edge down one. 256 00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:15.799 To up five, double team to Zoo and the paint 257 00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:16.960 do win it him. 258 00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:21.240 Big Zoo with the in and out cross and the elevation. 259 00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:23.840 Sensation tongue got it across the timeline. 260 00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:27.240 He comes fine. Zoobots do crow it downs, put. 261 00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:32.000 Some contact Big Zoo with some emphasis after the fact. 262 00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:35.000 That would seal it. That would put the Clippers up 263 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.840 one eleven to one oh four. They would win one 264 00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:40.960 twelve to one o four over the Golden State Warriors. 265 00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:43.440 They've won two in a row. They're two to one 266 00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:46.399 on this young season. They sweep the road trip, winning 267 00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:50.120 in Denver yesterday and up North versus the Golden State Warriors, 268 00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:53.559 and now they have two days off.

Your final box score. Clippers 277 00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:24.320 end up shooting forty seven percent from the floor, Golden 278 00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:26.759 Stage just forty three percent. They cooled off from three 279 00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:29.559 after starting six of fourteen. They ended up fourteen of 280 00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:33.200 forty three, the Clippers ten of thirty two. Some clutch 281 00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:40.360 triples once again, Clippers out rebounding their opponent in this 282 00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:44.399 one forty eight to forty seven. It was close. Offensive 283 00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:47.559 rebounds were even at fourteen apiece. Big Zoo had six 284 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:51.240 of them for the Clippers on his way to drop 285 00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:55.159 in twenty three eighteen and six assists. We had him 286 00:13:55.159 --> 00:13:57.639 at seventeen on a different box score. We got him 287 00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:01.399 at eighteen on this one points in the paint. Clippers 288 00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:03.919 with fifty eight, Golden State Warriors with thirty eight. How 289 00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:07.200 about second chance points? Clippers went eight for twelve with 290 00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:10.080 twenty one points on their second chance points. That's phenomenal 291 00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:13.360 fast break points. Golden State beat him there sixteen to twelve. 292 00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:16.720 Clippers eighteen turnovers, still not great, leading to twenty points 293 00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:19.240 for Golden State. Golden State, though with twenty one leading 294 00:14:19.240 --> 00:14:22.639 to twenty one points for your Los Angeles Clippers, who 295 00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:26.279 got four starters in double figures. Dereck Jones Junior with 296 00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:29.600 eighteen points, seven of ten from the floor, three of 297 00:14:29.679 --> 00:14:32.919 four from the outside. He had twelve points. I believe 298 00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:36.639 in the first quarter he started five of five from 299 00:14:36.679 --> 00:14:39.320 the field. Really got them clicked in and they were 300 00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:42.879 tied at thirty four. Because the Clippers, you know, offensively, 301 00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:44.840 they had to hang with Golden State early on when 302 00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:47.000 they hit six three pointers in the first twelve minutes. 303 00:14:47.039 --> 00:14:48.799 A lot of that was due to Dereck Jones Junior 304 00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:53.799 stepping up. James Harden twenty three points, eleven assists, doing 305 00:14:53.840 --> 00:14:57.279 what he does, getting everybody involved. Just two of twelve 306 00:14:57.279 --> 00:15:00.840 from the outside and it doesn't matter. The end of 307 00:15:00.879 --> 00:15:03.480 the third quarter may have saved this game for the Clippers. 308 00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:06.759 Those nine points straight he had for them. Ended up 309 00:15:06.799 --> 00:15:11.000 with twenty points, eight of fifteen shooting. This Clippers team 310 00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:14.480 getting contributions everywhere. I thought it was Kevin Porter Junior's 311 00:15:14.480 --> 00:15:16.960 best game. He was a plus sixteen out there, made 312 00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:19.960 some defensive plays, had a steal, two of seven from 313 00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:22.759 the floor, no dunks, a jumper, and banked in a 314 00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:28.080 three pointer. Chris Dunn plus twenty best on the team. 315 00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:31.240 I love seeing him closing games right now. He has 316 00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:34.240 earned that. He ended up with just six points. But 317 00:15:34.759 --> 00:15:37.080 even though he missed a couple of three pointers, the 318 00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:39.879 rip on Steph, the and one. I know he missed 319 00:15:39.879 --> 00:15:42.799 the free throw, but he was getting in passing lanes 320 00:15:42.840 --> 00:15:45.600 over and over again. Same with a mere coffee. He 321 00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:48.039 went three or five, had eight points knocked down. The 322 00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:51.039 only three pointer he took Niko Batum with five points 323 00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:55.200 was a plus thirteen. The bench was fantastic for the Clippers. 324 00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:58.919 Clippers win one twelve to one to four up North 325 00:15:59.000 --> 00:16:01.759 against the Golden State Warriors. They head back home after 326 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:04.039 two days off. They'll be it into it Dome on Wednesday, 327 00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:07.840 taking on the Portland trail Blazers tiptom at seven thirty. 328 00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:10.399 Pregame shows starting at six thirty.

Eight six six nine eight 360 00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:48.079 seven two five seventy is the phone number. This Clippers team, 361 00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:52.240 this defense is special. They held another team to one 362 00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:56.240 hundred and four points, same as yesterday. Yesterday it was 363 00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:58.680 one oh nine, one oh four Clippers over Denver, today 364 00:17:58.720 --> 00:18:02.000 one twelve, one oh four Roopers over Golden State. They 365 00:18:02.079 --> 00:18:05.599 do it with defense and a feistiness and a grittiness 366 00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:08.759 that we haven't seen in some time. The whole is 367 00:18:08.799 --> 00:18:11.880 greater than the some of its parts. But some of 368 00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:17.160 these individual performances are special too. I've talked about Big 369 00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:19.440 Zoo as a Warshack test for if you know ball. 370 00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:27.319 For a long time, the Zoo haters never understood, could 371 00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:31.799 never see the potential of this player and what he 372 00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:36.119 could do if you just gave him more opportunities. It's 373 00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:41.519 finally happening. I've been talking about Big Zoo for years, 374 00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:44.480 saying there is an easier path to victory for this 375 00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:47.640 Clippers team, and it is playing through Big Zoo well. 376 00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:50.480 With Paul George now in Philly, with Kawhi Leonard out 377 00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:53.359 right now, Big Zoo is taking advantage of his big 378 00:18:53.400 --> 00:18:58.240 spotlight that is on him third straight game with twenty 379 00:18:58.319 --> 00:19:03.240 or more, first time in his career. Why because he's 380 00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:07.640 getting the minutes thirty seven minutes after playing thirty nine 381 00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:12.599 yesterday and he gets twenty three, eighteen boards and six assists. 382 00:19:14.240 --> 00:19:17.440 If you didn't know, Big Zoo's like that, if you 383 00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:22.440 give him the opportunity, if you let him cook, if 384 00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:25.920 you play through him on offense, I said three years ago, 385 00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:28.559 he looks like a long lost assault brother at times, 386 00:19:28.599 --> 00:19:30.279 with the way he can use his right hand his 387 00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:36.400 left hand. It's about damn time his offense is being 388 00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:42.440 exploited and they're using him to punish the opposition. I 389 00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:45.640 get it. They had four Hall of Famers last year. 390 00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:48.279 How many opportunities was he going to get? But now 391 00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:50.559 with James Harden and he running the pick and roll 392 00:19:50.640 --> 00:19:55.200 to perfection, this is Zoo's time and he's playing like 393 00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:59.039 an All star through three games. That's how good he 394 00:19:59.079 --> 00:20:03.400 has looked. There are people on Twitter saying, oh, you 395 00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:05.920 want a cookie. It's about time he's doing this. The 396 00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:10.000 same people who have hated on him say he don't 397 00:20:10.000 --> 00:20:12.759 have he doesn't have hands with their hands of stone 398 00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:17.720 like Kwalme Brown or something. All he needed was the 399 00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:20.240 minutes and the opportunity and he'll take care of the rest. 400 00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:24.559 I have been saying this on record for years. In fact, 401 00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:29.440
